Embodiment Construction

[0032]Referring to the drawings and particularly to FIGS. 1 and 2, one form of the windbreak structure of the present invention is there shown and generally designated by the numeral 14. The windbreak structure 14, which is specially designed for outdoor use to protect the user from the wind, here comprises a first side 16 that comprises a plurality of hingedly interconnected uniquely shaped first panels 18, 20 and 22. As indicated in FIG. 1, windbreak structure 14 also comprises a second side 24, which is hingedly connected to first side 16 by a hinge assembly 26 (FIG. 3), and is movable between a first collapsed position and a second operable position. More particularly, second side 24 is pivotally movable between a first position proximate first side 16 and a second position wherein the second side extends from the first side at an acute angle of between about 20 degrees and about 40 degrees. First panel 18 is in the shape of a four-sided polygon, or quadrangle, while panels 20 a...

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This is a Non-Provisional Application based on Provisional Application No. 61 / 611,212 filed Mar. 15, 2012.STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT[0002]Not ApplicableINCORPORATION-BY-REFERENCE OF MATERIAL SUBMITTED ON A COMPACT DISC[0003]Not ApplicableBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0004]1. Field of the Invention[0005]The present invention relates generally to windbreak type structures. More particularly, the invention concerns a novel, generally V-shaped, foldable structure that protects the user from wind and one that can be easily erected and easily dismantled for storage and transport.[0006]2. Discussion of the Prior Art[0007]A number of different types of windbreak structures have been suggested in the past. These structures range from very simple to unduly complex constructions and typically involve a plurality of hingedly interconnected panels. Exemplary of the typical prior art windbreak structures are those ill...
