Abstract

A combinational housing structure comprising several housing units, every housing unit has a rectangular steel frame as backbone, several wedge holes are on the top, bottom and four comers of the steel frame, several hook parts corresponding to four walls are on the edges of the steel frame; four walls, one floor and one ceiling can attach to the steel frame; pipes for utility, water are inside the walls, ceiling and floor, extension connectors are on both ends of these electricity and water pipes for extension connection; windows and doors are on the walls. Based on the structure described above, the housing units are made in advance for different functions in rapid, large quantity method for easy transportation and assembly; these housing units are shipped on site for fast installation, the pipes are connected with extension connectors; such can assemble a full function shelter as temporary building or for rescue purpose.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

I. Field of the Invention
This invention relates generally to a housing structure and, more specifically, to a combinational housing structure that can be pre-made for easy long distant transportation and fast on site assembly, the present invention comprises of several housing units pilled and connected together, the housing units has a steel frame as backbone with wedge holes, several hook parts corresponding to four walls are on the edges of the steel frame, the housing units are decorated as required in advance, then users can assemble several housing units into a larger building as temporary building or for rescue purpose.
II. Description of the Prior Art
Heretofore, it is known that the combinational shelters for temporary application or rescue purpose, such as after earthquake or tsunami. Some of the combination shelters are converted from freight containers with windows and doors; these have advantages of rapid installation and application, however with limited space available, no utility and toilet, they are too simple for people to stay long. Another type of combinational house is to have all the components (such as walls, pillars, utility and toilet . . . ) ship and assemble on site, such can have better structure and more suitable for living with utility, toilet and more available environment; however such will take longer time and more labor to install.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is therefore a primary object of the invention to provide a combinational housing structure that subdivides the combinational housing into several housing units in same size; these housing units are pre-made in factory, then shipped on site for fast assembly for larger building or even multiple floor structure, such can achieve lower labor, less time and more practical application purpose.
In order to achieve the objective set forth, a combinational housing structure in accordance with the present invention comprises several housing units, every housing unit has a rectangular steel frame as backbone, several wedge holes are on the top, bottom and four corners of the steel frame, several hook parts corresponding to four walls are on the edges of the steel frame; four walls, one floor and one ceiling can attach to the steel frame; pipes for utility, water are inside the walls, ceiling and floor, extension connectors are on both ends of these electricity and water pipes for extension connection; windows and doors are on the walls.
Based on the structure described above, the housing units are made in advance for different functions in rapid, large quantity method for easy transportation and assembly; these housing units are shipped on site for fast installation, the pipes are connected with extension connectors; such can assemble a full function shelter as temporary building or for rescue purpose.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The accomplishment of the above-mentioned object of the present invention will become apparent from the following description and its accompanying drawings which disclose illustrative an embodiment of the present invention, and are as follows:
FIG. 1 is an assembly view of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the present invention;
FIG. 3 is an application view of the present invention;
FIG. 4 is an inter-connection view of the application of the present invention;
FIG. 5 is another application view of the present invention;
FIG. 6 is another inter-connection view of the application of the present invention.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, the present invention comprises several housing units 10, every housing unit has a rectangular steel frame 11 as backbone, several wedge holes 111 are on the top, bottom and four corners of the steel frame 11, several hook parts 112 corresponding to four walls are on the edges of the steel frame 11; four walls 12, one floor 14 and one ceiling 13 can attach to the steel frame 11; pipes 15 for utility, water are inside the walls 12, ceiling 13 and floor 14, extension connectors 151, 152 are on both ends of these electricity and water (also includes water drain, cables and IT wires) pipes 15 for extension connection; windows 17 and doors 16 are on the walls 12.
Based on the structure described above, the housing units 10 are made in advance for different functions in rapid, large quantity method for easy transportation and assembly; these housing units 10 are shipped on site for fast installation, the pipes 15 are connected with extension connectors 151, 152; such can assemble a full function shelter as temporary building or for rescue purpose.
An application example shown in FIG. 3, four housing units 10 are installed in rectangular shape, and interconnect to each other with these hook parts 112, as shown in FIG. 4, a roof structure 20 is on top of the whole combination; the combination is a four rooms house with the space in center as a living room; the four rooms can be decorated into bedroom, and kitchen; with the linkage of hook parts 112, the whole structure has strong stability and shockproof function to be a combinational house for large family. As described above, the door 16 and roof structure 20 (as shown in dash-lines in FIG) are decorated and strengthened for more function and good looking; the whole structure becomes a villa for more economical and application value.
Another application example shown in FIG. 5, this application is developed from above example. The example shown in FIG. 5 is a multiple piling layer of the present invention; the wedge holes 111 on four comers of top and bottom of the housing units 10 are inter-connected together with pins 30 to the corresponding wedge holes 111 on top and bottom housing units 10 (as shown in FI 6); while application, the housing units 10 (or steel frame 11) on bottom can be buried into ground as foundation of the building or hollow tank to rise along with water or flood to avoid damage; the housing units 10 on above floor (include second floor) can be rooms with different application or purpose; the empty space on the center of the second floor has ground floor 40; sidewalk 50 and fences 51 are around the center of the second and third floor to form a high ceiling room, stair 60 connects the second and third floors to achieve better application and more available room.
While a preferred embodiment of the invention has been shown and described in detail, it will be readily understood and appreciated that numerous omissions, changes and additions may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
