Assemblable and disassemblable enclosure

Abstract

The enclosure is square or rectangular parallelepipedic shaped, incorporates wall forming panels, vertices at corners and elongated flanges. Each elongated flange has an uniform thickness, protrudes along each lateral side, outwards from a front, external surface of each wall forming panel and extends less than the full length of each lateral side. The elongated flange has a thickness commensurable with corresponding thickness of each of the wall forming panels. A segment of the elongated flange protruding outwards each lateral side equalizes with the thickness of each wall forming panels. An elongated rail, made of plastic material has, relatively, a lesser thickness than the thickness of each of the forming panels, provides a longitudinal and transverse flexibility and internally is so configured as to engage a pair of elongated flanges, perpendicularly positioned and in contact.

1 . An assemblable and disassemblable enclosure selected from the group consisting of a square parallelepipedic shape enclosure and a rectangular parallelepipedic shape enclosure, said square parallelepipedic shape enclosure comprising
 6 wall forming panels, all identical; and   8 vertices at the corners of said assemblable and disassemblable enclosure;   an elongated flange, of uniform thickness, protruding along each lateral side, outwards from a front, external surface of each said wall forming panel and extending less than the full length of each said lateral side, so that a free space between each ends of said elongated flange and one of said vertices, which is proximate, is resulting; said elongated flange having a thickness commensurable with a corresponding thickness of each said wall forming panels; a segment of said elongated flange protruding outwards each said lateral side equalizing with said thickness of each wall forming panels;   an elongated rail made of plastic material and having, relatively, a lesser thickness than said thickness of each of said forming panels, provides a longitudinal and transverse flexibility;   
       each said elongated rail having a length comparable to that of each said elongated flange and a U shaped cross-section with a base and unequal legs: a long leg and a short leg; 
       said base being, dimensionally, so chosen as to correspond to a height of a cross section of said elongated flange and a thickness of another said elongated flange, the former and the latter being perpendicularly positioned and in contact, together abutting interiorly said base; said long leg being in contact, interiorly, with a surface of said elongated flange, defined by a height of a cross-section of said elongated flange, while said short leg being interiorily in contact with a surface of said elongated rail, defined by a thickness of another said elongated rail; a first lip extending perpendicularly from an end of said long leg, while a second lip extending perpendicularly from an end of said short leg, both former and latter lips being in springy contact with external surfaces of two of said wall forming panels, perpendicularly juxtaposed; and each of said elongated rails, due to its internal configuration, engaging and entrapping by snapping or by telescopic translation each pair of said elongated flanges, which are perpendicularly juxtaposed; and 
       said rectangular parallelepipedic shape enclosure comprising wall forming panels, all rectangular, at least 4 of said wall forming panels being identical; 
       said elongated flanges and said elongated rails, incorporated in said rectangular parallelepipedic shape enclosure having identical structure and function as those of corresponding square parallelepipedic shape enclosure; 
       since size-wise, said walls forming panels of said rectangular parallelepipedic shape enclosure are not equal, their length would accordingly differ; thus, the lengths of said elongated flanges and of said elongated rails of said rectangular parallelepipedic shape enclosure are, correspondingly, dimensioned to fit to said rectangular parallelepipedic shape enclosure.
