Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to prefabricated houses or buildings.
Buildings have been provided in the prior art that are constructed of corrugated panels. Also the prior art shows numerous buildings constructed of prefabricated parts. A common way of joining the panels is by means of male-female joints. However, this invention combines in one invention many of the advantages and problems solved in the various constructions in the prior art.
A problem solved by this invention is that a construction is provided in which the parts are uniform in size so that the house or building may be constructed and assembled by unskilled labor with labor-saving ease and rapidity of construction and assembly.
Another problem solved by the invention is that heating and air conditioning ducts are built into the floors, walls and ceilings.
Another problem solved by this invention is that the parts may be made of a great variety of materials of construction, such as fiberglass, plastics, laminated wood or metals.
Another problem solved by this invention is that the floors, walls, ceilings and roofs are corrugated for high strength and could be made from the same mold or dies.
Another problem solved by this invention is that standard building materials can be used for sidings for walls, ceiling and roof and for windows and doors.
Another problem solved by this invention is that the parts can be made any width or length.
Another problem solved by this invention is that because of the corrugations in the wall panels, studs and outside sheeting are, in effect, formed in one piece in panels of uniform height and width, thus reducing labor erection pieces by a considerable amount.
Another problem solved by this invention is that because parts will be made under shop conditions and by jigs and molds, uniformity of size and complete interchangibilty will be achieved.
Another problem solved by this invention is that the corner post design and wall panel connection to the corner post is self squaring.
Another problem solved by this invention is that the unique design of the interlocking floor panel corrugations and wall panel corrugations will speed assembly and by fastening them together will create a stronger connection than standard designs now used.
Another problem solved by this invention is that in some instances a sub-flooring can be eliminated because of the corrugated floor panel design.
Another problem solved by this invention is that by molding or forming the parts of the prefabricated house or building, the parts will automatically fit into place, thus not requiring measurements of individual parts on the job site.
Another problem solved by this invention is that the wall panels will be shop made and window and door frame openings will be jigged, thus saving on job construction time.
Another problem solved by this invention is that because of the panels width design, settling cracks or breaks would be greatly reduced.
Another problem solved by this invention is that with certain materials that could be used, no warping, swelling or distortion would occur.
Another problem solved by this invention is that because of the corrugations in the roof panel, sub-deck roofing could be eliminated.
Another problem solved by this invention is that the corrugations of the ceiling panel and the corrugations of the roof panel intermesh for easy and positive connection.
Another advantage of this invention is that interior partition walls could be easily and quickly erected.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention comprises prefabricated parts that interlock together when assembled to form a house or building. A foundation is provided. Sills having sill backs, sill floors, sill box members and sill interconnecting members are bolted to the foundation. Corrugated wall panels having alternating ridges and depressions are mounted to the sills by mounting the wall panel ridges between the sill backs and sill interconnecting members and by mounting the wall panel depressions between the sill backs and sill box members. A corner sill is bolted to the foundation and connects the sills at the corners. A corner post is mounted to the corner sill and connects the corrugated wall panels at the corners. A corrugated floor panel is mounted to the sill box member tops and wall panel ridges. A corrugated ceiling is mounted to first and second headers mounted to the corrugated wall panel tops. A corrugated end panel having a sloping top is mounted to a third header mounted to the first header. A corrugated roof panel is mounted to a fourth header mounted to the corrugated end panel top. The roof panel ridges and roof panel depressions are so dimensioned that the roof panel ridges will fit snugly in the ceiling panel ridges and the roof panel depressions will fit snugly over the ceiling panel depressions for an easy and positive connection.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a house or building constructed in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view, not to scale, of a corner of the house or building showing the parts in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line 3--3 of FIG. 1.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Referring to FIG. 1, a house or building having a door 1 and window 2 is shown. Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, a foundation 3 is provided. Anchor bolts 4 are embedded in the foundation 3. Sills 5 are mounted to the foundation 3. The sills 5 have sill backs 6, sill floors 7, sill box members 8 and sill interconnecting members 9. Anchor bolts 4 project through holes 10 in the sill box members 8 and nuts are tightened on the threaded ends of anchor bolts 4 to hold the sills 5 firmly on the foundation 3. The parts of the house are described and shown as being bolted together but could be connected and mounted together by any convenient means, depending on the material used, such as nailing, bolting, fusing, screwing or bonding. The holes for connecting and mounting the parts together are shown on the drawings but the nuts and bolts for connecting and mounting the parts together are not shown on the drawings because showing all the nuts and bolts on the drawing would make the drawings cluttered and it is thought unnecessary to show all the nuts and bolts to enable one skilled in the art to make and use the invention. A corner sill 11 is mounted to foundation corner 12. The corner sill 11 has a corner sill back 13, a corner sill floor 19, a corner sill box member 14 and corner sill interconnecting members 15.
