[0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 353,502, filed on June 17, 2022, the entire contents of which are expressly incorporated herein by reference for all purposes. The application is related to U.S. Patent No. 10,851,544, filed on January 7, 2020, entitled "Multi-function wind-directing leaf-separating-and-discharging rainwater-sealing automatic-multi-screen-raising-and-lowering multi-screen-securing fruit-drying-and-sorting truck-tonneau-covering rainwater-channeling-and-collecting leaf-filtering height-and-angle-adjustable louvered pergola," which is assigned to the present assignee and is expressly incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] The present disclosure relates generally to gazebo systems. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to gazebo systems including louvered gazebos. Background Art

[0004] Conventional gazebo systems have several disadvantages. For example, conventional gazebo systems are not configured to be robotically assembled in order to save production time and cost. In particular, existing louvered gazebos do not have robotically assembled gutter beam reversibly operable spacers. Therefore, existing louvered gazebos cannot connect multiple robotically assembled gazebos. In fact, gazebo systems are not configured to connect one or more gazebos to each other.

[0005] Thus, existing louvered gazebos are not capable of connecting multiple robotically assembled gazebos in a straight line, vertical configuration, or cluster formation.

[0006] Gazebo systems including louvered gazebos do not provide a means for connecting louvered gazebos to other gazebos at multiple angles. Additionally, louvered gazebos do not have side or end gutter beams that drain and direct rainwater therethrough and provide horizontal support for adjacent connected gazebos. Furthermore, conventional louvered gazebos do not provide horizontal support for connecting multiple gazebos to one another.

[0007] Existing louvered gazebos fail to conceal gutters that direct and / or drain rainwater. Louvered gazebos fail to support a louvered slat system that would allow for automatic lowering and / or raising of an awning attached to the gazebo.

[0008] Further, conventional louvered gazebos do not provide horizontal support between two corner posts. Conventional louvered gazebos do not have multiple louvered slat control levers. Conventional louvered gazebos do not allow for control of robotically assembled louvered slats (which can automatically raise and / or lower the awning) to simultaneously transition multiple louvered slats between an open configuration and a closed configuration. In particular, the louvered gazebos do not allow for simultaneous closing of multiple louvered slats that are robotically assembled to protect against weather conditions. Additionally, the louvered gazebos do not allow for simultaneous opening and closing of multiple louvered slats that are robotically assembled to direct and / or redirect wind flow. The louvered gazebos do not allow for simultaneous opening and / or closing of multiple louvered slats that are robotically assembled to deploy and / or retract the awning.

[0009] Conventional louvered gazebos do not have a double width, multi-gazebo connection, multi-angle-allowing coupling column. In this regard, conventional louvered gazebos cannot connect two or more robotically assembled gazebos in a variety of configurations.

[0010] Conventional louvered gazebos do not have socket screws that allow for adjustment of the height and angle of the gazebo. Therefore, existing louvered gazebos are unable to level a robotically assembled gazebo when on an uneven or sloped surface. Conventional louvered gazebos do not provide a means to cooperatively level the gazebo(s) as they are deployed. Summary of the invention
