Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of prefabricated modular housing technology, and in particular, to a prefabricated house for modular housing construction. Background Technology
[0002] A modular shelter is a unit formed by combining panels, and it is a room that can be moved and adjusted at any time. The internal structure is designed according to different needs.
[0003] The modular shelter is mainly constructed by assembling a top panel, bottom panel, left panel, right panel, front panel, and rear panel. In traditional modular shelter designs, the panels were primarily fixed together by welding. However, to facilitate easier manufacturing, assembly, and transportation, modular shelters are now typically designed for initial transport in parts and subsequent on-site assembly. In this case, the panels are mainly secured with connectors, which reduces the overall stability of the modular shelter.
[0004] Furthermore, during actual use, the floor panels of the makeshift hospital, in prolonged contact with the ground, are prone to premature damage and rust. Especially when used to isolate people related to the epidemic, the floor panels in contact with the ground are susceptible to overheating under intense sunlight, causing discomfort to the residents. To address this, bricks are often placed at the four corners of the makeshift hospital's floor to prevent direct contact with the ground. However, since the floor panels are suspended by four small supports, the weight of the makeshift hospital and its internal facilities is entirely transferred to these four points. In other words, the floor panels bear significant downward pressure. Over time, the connections between the floor panels and the surrounding materials can easily damage or detach, potentially threatening the safety of the residents. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a prefabricated house for use in container buildings.
[0006] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] A prefabricated house for use in mobile cabin construction includes a top plate, a bottom plate, a left plate, a right plate, a front plate, and a rear plate assembled together by connectors. The bottom plate has several load-bearing areas, and several support columns are movably connected within the load-bearing areas. The load-bearing areas are also covered by baffles. An elastic element is connected between the baffles and the bottom plate, and a gap is maintained between the baffles and the support columns through the elastic element. When a heavy object is placed on the baffles, the baffles can press down on the support columns, causing the bottom ends of the support columns to be supported on the ground.
[0008] Using the above technical solution, when heavy objects need to be placed inside the shelter, they can be placed on the baffle. The pressure on the baffle will compress the elastic element. As the elastic element compresses, the baffle will press down against several support columns, causing the bottom ends of these columns to rest on the ground. In other words, the support columns support the baffle. Thus, the downward pressure of the heavy object is supported by these support columns and transmitted to the ground. This prevents the floor of the shelter from excessive downward pressure, thus reducing the risk of damage or detachment at the connection between the floor and surrounding materials, significantly improving the safety of the people living inside the shelter.
[0009] Preferably, when the elastic element is in its natural state, the top surface of the baffle is engaged with the top surface of the base plate.
[0010] With the above technical solution, the non-load-bearing baffle will be connected to the base plate under the action of the elastic element, so as not to affect the normal walking of people on the base plate.
[0011] Preferably, the support column includes a hollow main body and a support portion slidably connected within the main body. An unlocking component is connected between the support portion and the baffle. An elastic element two is also connected between the support portion and the main body. The elastic element two is used to push the support portion downward away from the main body, and the unlocking component can overcome the elastic force of the elastic element two, so that the support portion is housed within the main body. When the baffle is overloaded, the unlocking component can release the position restriction on the support portion. At this time, the support portion is supported downward on the ground and fixed to the main body by a snap-fit structure.
[0012] With the above technical solution, when the baffle is loaded with a heavy object, the unlocking component will release the position restriction on the support part. Subsequently, the elastic element will push the support part away from the main body, allowing the support part to rest on the ground. At this time, the support part will be fixed to the main body through a snap-fit structure. In this way, the downward pressure of the heavy object will be transmitted to the ground through the main body and the support part. The advantage of designing the support column as the main body and the support part is that the trigger distance between the baffle and the support column is reduced. That is, under the downward pressure of the heavy object, the baffle only needs to move downward a small distance to achieve the support column's support for the baffle. In other words, when the baffle is loaded with a heavy object, it is less likely to have a large drop between the baffle and the base plate.
[0013] Preferably, the snap-fit structure includes snap-fit blocks that are circumferentially elastically connected to the side wall of the support portion, and the inner wall of the main body portion is provided with snap-fit grooves circumferentially, with a plurality of snap-fit grooves corresponding one-to-one with a plurality of snap-fit blocks.
[0014] Through the above technical solution, when the support part moves downward until the locking block aligns with the locking slot, the locking block will engage with the locking slot to fix the main body and the support part. The snap-fit structure has the advantages of simple structure and reliable use.
[0015] Preferably, the top surface of the card block is provided with an inclined surface.
[0016] With the above technical solution, the card block can be easily removed from the slot by the inclined surface, so as to achieve convenient separation between the support part and the fixing part.
[0017] Preferably, the unlocking component includes a clamping member disposed on the top surface of the main body. The clamping member includes two claws hinged together. The two claws cooperate to clamp the support portion to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member. An unlocking rod is disposed on the bottom surface of the baffle opposite to the clamping member. When the baffle is overloaded, the unlocking rod can be inserted between the ends of the two claws away from the support portion, so that the ends of the two claws clamping the support portion move away from each other.
[0018] With the above technical solution, when a heavy object is placed on the baffle, the baffle will move downwards, causing the unlocking rod to insert between the ends of the two grippers furthest from the support. At this time, the ends of the two grippers that were tightly holding the support will move away from each other, thereby releasing the unlocking component from restricting the position of the support. The unlocking component has a simple and reliable structure.
[0019] Preferably, the top end of the support portion is provided with an annular groove for the two grippers to engage.
[0020] Through the above technical solution, the gripper can more easily limit the vertical position of the support by being inserted into the annular groove, and thus the clamping member can more stably overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 2 acting on the support.
[0021] Preferably, a mounting groove is provided on the top surface of the main body, and the clamping member is disposed in the mounting groove.
[0022] With the above technical solution, the clamping component is less likely to become obstructed between the main body and the baffle, thus reducing the supporting effect of the main body on the heavy objects on the baffle.
[0023] Preferably, the sidewall of the support portion is circumferentially connected with a plurality of support feet, and a driving component is provided between the support portion and the main body portion. When the support portion pops out from the main body portion, the driving component can drive the plurality of support feet to open up, thereby increasing the support area of the support column.
[0024] With the above technical solution, when the support part pops out from the main body, the drive assembly will drive several support legs to open, thereby increasing the support area of the support column. This improves the stability of the support column's support for the baffle.
[0025] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a toothed structure axially disposed on the inner wall of the main body and a gear rotatably connected to the side wall of the support. The gear can mesh with the toothed structure. A cavity is provided in the support, and a drive rack is slidably connected vertically in the cavity. The gear meshes with the drive rack. The support leg is inverted L-shaped, and the crossbar of the support leg is slidably connected to the side wall of the support and extends into the cavity. A drive block is provided at the bottom end of the drive rack. The side wall of the drive block is circumferentially constructed with a second inclined surface, and the cross-sectional area of the drive block gradually increases from bottom to top. An elastic element is connected to the support leg. When the elastic element is in its natural state, the elastic element maintains the crossbar of the support leg within the support.
[0026] With the above technical solution, when the support part is ejected from the main body, gear one will mesh with the toothed structure. As the support part continues to move downward, gear one will rotate under the drive of the toothed structure, and the rotating gear one will then drive the drive rack to move downward. During this process, the drive block at the bottom of the drive rack will continuously extend between the crossbars of several support legs. Guided by inclined plane two, the crossbars of the support legs will overcome the force of elastic element three and move away from the support part, that is, the several support legs will be pushed apart from each other, thereby increasing the support area of the support column.

[0034] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a prefabricated house for use in modular housing includes a top panel 1, a bottom panel 2, a left panel 3, a right panel 4, a front panel 5, and a rear panel 6, all joined together by connectors (not shown). To prevent premature damage and rusting of the floor panels due to prolonged contact with the ground, bricks are placed at the four corners of the bottom of the modular housing to prevent direct contact with the ground. However, this results in the bottom panel 2 being suspended by four small supports, meaning the weight of the housing and its internal components is entirely transferred to these four points. In other words, the bottom panel 2 bears significant downward pressure. Over time, the connections between the bottom panel 2 and the surrounding panels are prone to damage and detachment, potentially threatening the safety of the residents.
[0036] To address this, the solution includes several load-bearing areas 7 on the base plate 2 for supporting heavy objects. Specifically, several support columns 8 are movably connected within the load-bearing areas 7, and a baffle 9 covers the load-bearing areas 7, which can cover the openings of the load-bearing areas 7. An elastic element 10 connects the baffle 9 to the base plate 2, maintaining a gap between the baffle 9 and the support columns 8. Preferably, when the elastic element 10 is in its natural state, the top surface of the baffle 9 will engage with the top surface of the base plate 2.
[0037] Thus, when no heavy objects are needed inside the shelter, the floor 2 will maintain a relatively flat top surface, and people can walk normally on the floor 2 with the support of the elastic element 10. When heavy objects need to be placed inside the shelter, they can be placed on the baffle 9. At this time, the pressure on the baffle 9 will drive the elastic element 10 to compress. As the elastic element 10 continues to compress, the baffle 9 will press down against several support columns 8, and the bottom ends of the support columns 8 will be supported on the ground. That is to say, the support columns 8 will support the baffle 9. In other words, the downward pressure of the heavy objects will be supported by the support columns 8 and transmitted to the ground. As a result, the floor 2 of the shelter is less likely to withstand large downward pressure, and the connection between the floor 2 and the surrounding materials is less likely to be damaged or disconnected, greatly improving the personal safety of the people living inside the shelter.
[0038] To reduce the downward displacement of the baffle 9 that would trigger the support column 8 to support the ground, this design includes a hollow main body 11 and a support part 12 slidably connected within the main body 11. An elastic element 14 connects the support part 12 to the main body 11, exerting an elastic force to push the support part 12 downward away from the main body 11. An unlocking component 13 connects the support part 12 to the baffle 9, overcoming the elastic force of the elastic element 14, allowing the support part 12 to be housed within the main body 11. When the baffle 9 is loaded with a heavy object, the unlocking component 13 releases the positional restriction on the support part 12. The support part 12 then supports the ground downward under the elastic force of the elastic element 14 and is fixed to the main body 11 by a snap-fit structure 15. At this time, the downward pressure of the heavy object is transmitted to the ground through the main body 11 and the support part 12. Understandably, the advantage of designing the support column 8 as the main body 11 and the support part 12 is that the triggering distance between the baffle 9 and the support column 8 can be reduced. That is, under the downward pressure of the heavy object, the baffle 9 only needs to be displaced downward by a small distance to achieve the support of the support column 8 on the baffle 9.
[0039] Furthermore, the aforementioned unlocking assembly 13 includes a clamping member 19 disposed on the top surface of the main body 11. The clamping member 19 includes two hinged grippers 20, which cooperate to clamp the support portion 12, thereby overcoming the elastic force exerted on the support portion 12 by the elastic member 14. In addition, an unlocking rod 21 is disposed on the bottom surface of the baffle 9 opposite to the clamping member 19. When the baffle 9 is loaded with a heavy object (i.e., when the baffle 9 is overloaded), the unlocking rod 21 will continuously insert between the ends of the two grippers 20 away from the support portion 12 as the baffle 9 moves downward, thereby causing the ends of the two grippers 20 clamped on the support portion 12 to move away from each other. At this time, the clamping member 19 will release the position restriction on the support portion 12.
[0040] Preferably, the top end of the support portion 12 is provided with an annular groove 22 for the two grippers 20 to engage. The grippers 20 engaging in the annular groove 22 makes it easier to vertically position the support portion 12, thus allowing the clamping member 19 to more stably overcome the elastic force exerted on the support portion 12 by the elastic member 24. Furthermore, a mounting groove 23 is provided on the top surface of the main body portion 11, and the clamping member 19 is disposed within the mounting groove 23. That is, the clamping member 19 is housed within the mounting groove 23, thus preventing the clamping member 19 from obstructing the space between the main body portion 11 and the baffle 9, thereby reducing the supporting effect of the main body portion 11 on the weight on the baffle 9.
[0041] Furthermore, the aforementioned snap-fit structure 15 includes snap-fit blocks 16 circumferentially spring-loaded onto the side wall of the support portion 12, and the inner wall of the main body 11 is provided with a plurality of snap-fit grooves 17 circumferentially, with the plurality of snap-fit grooves 17 corresponding to the plurality of snap-fit blocks 16 in a one-to-one positional relationship. Thus, when the baffle 9 bears a heavy object and the support portion 12 moves downward until the snap-fit blocks 16 are aligned with the snap-fit grooves 17, the snap-fit blocks 16 will snap into the snap-fit grooves 17 to achieve fixation between the main body 11 and the support portion 12. Preferably, the snap-fit blocks 16 can be made of an elastic material, and a slope 18 is provided on the top surface of the snap-fit blocks 16. The slope 18 guides the snap-fit blocks 16 to easily exit upward from the snap-fit grooves 17, thereby achieving convenient separation between the support portion 12 and the fixing portion.
[0042] To enhance the support stability of the support column 8, this design includes several support feet 24 circumferentially connected to the side wall of the support part 12, and a drive assembly 25 is provided between the support part 12 and the main body 11. When the support part 12 is ejected from the main body 11 under the action of the elastic element 24, the drive assembly 25 can drive the support feet 24 to open up, thereby increasing the support area of the support column 8 and improving the support stability.
[0043] Furthermore, the aforementioned drive assembly 25 includes a toothed structure 26 axially disposed on the inner wall of the main body 11 and a gear 27 rotatably connected to the side wall of the support 12, wherein the gear 27 and the toothed structure 26 are configured to mesh with each other. A cavity 28 is also provided within the support 12, and a drive rack 29 is vertically slidably connected within the cavity 28, with the gear 27 meshing with the drive rack 29. Additionally, the aforementioned support foot 24 is inverted L-shaped, and the crossbar of the support foot 24 is slidably connected to the side wall of the support 12 and extends into the cavity 28. A drive block 30 is provided at the bottom end of the drive rack 29, and the side wall of the drive block 30 is circumferentially constructed with a second inclined surface 31, and the cross-sectional area of the drive block 30 gradually increases from bottom to top. The aforementioned support leg 24 is also connected to an elastic element 32. When the elastic element 32 is in its natural state, it will keep the crossbar of the support leg 24 retracted within the support part 12.
[0044] Thus, when the support part 12 is ejected from the main body 11, gear 27 engages with the toothed structure 26. As the support part 12 continues to move downward, gear 27 rotates under the drive of the toothed structure 26, and the rotating gear 27 then drives the drive rack 29 to move downward. During this process, the drive block 30 at the bottom of the drive rack 29 continuously extends between the crossbars of the support legs 24. Guided by the inclined plane 31, the crossbars of the support legs 24 overcome the force of the elastic element 32 and move away from the support part 12, that is, the support legs 24 are pushed apart from each other, thereby increasing the support area of the support column 8.

It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the forms disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. It can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments, and can be altered within the scope of the concept described herein through the above teachings or related technologies or knowledge.
