Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste storage tank recycling and reuse technology, specifically to an eco-friendly homestay that utilizes waste storage tanks for recycling and reuse. Background Technology
[0002] Homestays can be divided into two types according to their construction method: on-site construction and pre-construction. Pre-construction homestays are mostly container-style homestays, which are mostly single-story. For example, our company previously applied for a patent for a container-style homestay, patent publication number CN212002491U. This container-style homestay is a single-story homestay built on the ground. The advantage of a single-story homestay is its simple structure, but the disadvantage is its monotonous structure. Because the homestay is a container structure, its roof is not resistant to sun exposure, making it quite hot to stay in during the summer. Therefore, we have made technical improvements to the previous container-style homestays to meet the needs of heat insulation and diversified accommodation. Utility Model Content
