[0004] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 6017847 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 10-305751 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The applicant is currently developing a technology that will allow two trailer homes, each with a shed roof, to be parked side by side, so that the combination of these shed roofs will look like a gable roof. However, because there is a gap between the two trailer homes and also between the shed roofs of the two homes, the combination of the shed roofs will not look completely like a gable roof. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a technology that makes the combination of shed roofs of trailer houses parked side by side look like a real gable roof. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The following reference numbers in parentheses refer to Figures 1 to 5.

[0007] In order to solve the above problems, according to claim 1, A residential facility (1) comprising first and second mobile homes (10 and 110) parked adjacent to each other, The first trailer house (10) comprises a first chassis (11), a first house (20) installed on the first chassis (11), and a first gable extender (50); The second trailer house (110) comprises a second chassis (111), a second house (120) installed on the second chassis (111) and adjacent to the first house (20), and a second gable extender (150); The first house (20) has a first gable roof (40) that slopes downward away from the second house (120), The second house (120) has a second shed roof (140) that is disposed at a gap from the ridge of the first shed roof (40) and slopes downward away from the first house (20), The first gable extender (50) is attached to the end of the gable side and ridge side of the first shed roof (40) and protrudes from the ridge side end of the first ridge (42) so as to extend the first ridge (42) on the gable side of the first shed roof (40) diagonally upward toward the second house (120), The second gable extender (150) is attached to the end of the gable side and ridge side of the second shed roof (140) and protrudes from the ridge side end of the second ridge (142) so as to extend the second ridge (142) on the gable side of the second shed roof (140) diagonally upward toward the second house (120), The first gable extender (50) partially overlaps the second gable extender (150) in the gap between the first sheave roof (40) and the second sheave roof (140). A residential facility (1) is provided, characterized in that:

[0008] According to claim 1 as described above, the first gable roof (40) of the first house (20) slopes downward as it moves away from the second house (120), and the second gable roof (140) of the second house (120) slopes downward as it moves away from the first house (20), so the combination of these gable roofs (40 and 140) looks like a gable roof. A first gable extender (50) attached to the end of the gable side and ridge side of the first shed roof (40) protrudes from the end of the ridge side of the first ridge (42) so as to extend the first ridge (42) on the gable side of the first shed roof (40) diagonally upward toward the second house (120), and a second gable extender (150) attached to the end of the gable side and ridge side of the second shed roof (140) extends the second ridge (142) on the gable side of the second shed roof (140) diagonally upward toward the second house (120). The first gable extender (50) extends diagonally upward from the ridge edge of the second eaves (142) toward the first house (20), and the first gable extender (50) partially overlaps the second gable extender (150) in the gap between the first shedding roof (40) and the second shedding roof (140), so the first eaves (42) of the first shedding roof (40) and the second eaves (142) of the second shedding roof (140) appear to be connected in a mountain shape. This contributes to the appearance of a gable roof when the first and second shedding roofs (40 and 140) are combined.

[0009] According to claim 2, A dwelling (1) according to claim 1, The first gable extender (50) is provided slidably relative to the first gable roof (42) along the slope of the first gable roof (40) so as to be retracted from the ridge-side end of the first gable roof (42) toward the eaves of the first gable roof (40); The second gable extender (150) is provided slidably relative to the second eaves (142) along the slope of the second shed roof (140) so as to be retracted from the ridge-side end of the second eaves (142) toward the eaves of the second shed roof (140). A residential facility (1) is provided, characterized in that:

[0010] According to claim 2, the first gable extender (50) is provided so as to be slidable relative to the first eaves (42) along the slope of the first sheath roof (40). When the first gable extender (50) is retracted from the ridge-side end of the first eaves (42) toward the eaves of the first sheath roof (40), the extension of the first gable extender (50) is eliminated. When the first trailer house (10) is towed, the first gable extender (50) does not interfere with its travel. Similarly, when the second gable extender (150) is retracted from the ridge-side end of the second eaves (142) toward the eaves of the second sheath roof (140), the second gable extender (150) does not interfere with its travel when the second trailer house (110) is towed.

[0011] According to claim 3, A dwelling (1) according to claim 1 or 2, The first gable roof (40) has a first gable board (46) covering the end face on the gable side of the first eaves (42), The first gable extender (50) is overlapped on the first gable board (46), The second sheave roof (140) has a second gable board (146) that covers the end face of the gable side of the second eaves (142), The second gable extender (150) is overlapped on the second gable board (146). A residential facility (1) is provided, characterized in that:

[0012] According to claim 3 as described above, the first gable board (46), the first gable extender (50), the second gable board (146), and the second gable extender (150) contribute to making the combination of the first and second gable roofs (40 and 140) look like a gable roof.

[0013] According to claim 4, A dwelling (1) according to claim 3, The first gable extender (50) and the first gable board (46) are the same color, The second gable extender (150) and the second gable board (146) are the same color. A residential facility (1) is provided, characterized in that:

[0014] According to claim 4, the first gable extender (50) and the first gable board (46) are more integrated, and the second gable extender (150) and the second gable board (146) are more integrated. This contributes to making the combination of the first and second shed roofs (40 and 140) look like a gable roof.

[Figure 3] FIG. 3 is an enlarged rear view of region II shown in FIG. [Figure 4] FIG. 4 is an enlarged rear view of region II shown in FIG. [Figure 5] 5 is a cross-sectional view showing a surface taken along line VV shown in FIG. 3 as viewed in the direction of the arrow. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. Features and technical effects of the embodiments will be understood from the following detailed description and drawings. However, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed below. Because the drawings are provided for illustrative purposes only, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the examples in the drawings.

[0020] <1. Living facilities> FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a residential facility 1 illustrated in central projection.

[0021] The residential facility 1 comprises a first trailer house 10 and a second trailer house 110 . The trailer house 10,110 is a towable vehicle that does not have a power source such as an internal combustion engine or a motor. The trailer house 10,110 can individually pass Japanese vehicle inspections. That is, the trailer house 10,110 can be registered under the Automobile Inspection and Registration System, pass inspections conducted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism of Japan, and receive permission for continuous use on public roads for a certain period of time. The trailer house 10,110 complies with the size and weight restrictions set forth in the Building Standards Act or the Road Transport Vehicle Act. For example, the trailer house 10,110 has a width of 2.5 meters or less, a length of 12 meters or less, and a height of 3.8 meters or less. By obtaining a special permit, the trailer house 10,110 may exceed the size or weight restrictions set forth in the road transport vehicle safety standards.

[0022] The trailer houses 10, 110 are parked side by side, adjacent to each other in the vehicle width direction. The first trailer house 10 is located to the right of the second trailer house 110. The exterior shape of the living facility 1 is symmetrical with respect to vertical symmetry planes along the front-to-back and top-to-bottom directions. The terms "left" and "right" here are not defined when viewing the trailer house 10, 110 from the front, but when viewed from the driver's seat of the towing vehicle that is towing the trailer house 10, 110. In other words, "left" and "right" are defined when viewing the trailer house 10, 110 in the forward direction. The left-to-right direction is the vehicle width direction, the front-to-back direction is the vehicle length direction, and the top-to-bottom direction is the vehicle height direction.

[0023] The first trailer house 10 includes a chassis 11, a house 20, a rear gable extender 50, and a front gable extender. In Figure 1, the front gable extender is hidden behind the house 20, so the front gable extender is not shown.

[0024] <2. The chassis of the first trailer house> The chassis 11 is also called a bogie. The chassis 11 has a base 12 and left and right wheels 13. The left and right wheels 13 are attached to the left and right sides of the base 12, respectively, and the base 12 is supported above the installation surface by the wheels 13. The base 12 is supported above the installation surface by a support structure such as a support base 14. The support structure can be easily removed without tools. The wheels 13 may be prevented from rolling by a wheel stopper. The chassis 11 has a coupler attached to the front end of the base 12, and the chassis 11 can be connected to a towing vehicle by the coupler.

[0025] <3. The first trailer house> The house 20 is installed on the frame 12 of the chassis 11. The house 20 may have a wall structure, a frame structure, or both. The house 20 may be a wooden house or a light-gauge steel-framed house. The house 20 may be constructed using a panel construction method, a frame construction method, a frame panel construction method, a frame wall construction method, or a combination of two or more of these methods. In one example, the house 20 is a wooden house with a wall structure assembled using a wood panel adhesive construction method. In another example, the house 20 is a light-gauge steel-framed house with a frame structure assembled using a prefabricated construction method.

[0026] The house 20 has a living space inside. The house 20 has a floor on its bottom surface, a rear exterior wall 21 on its rear surface, a right side exterior wall 22 on its right side, a front exterior wall on its front surface, a left side exterior wall on its left side, and a shed roof 40 on its top surface. The floor is laid on a frame 12. In one example, if the house 20 is a wooden house assembled using a wood panel adhesive construction method, the floor has hollow architectural wood panels and a floor finishing material attached to the upper surface of the architectural wood panels. The architectural wood panels have a rectangular frame formed by assembling four wooden frames into a rectangular frame shape and wooden facings attached to one or both sides of the rectangular frame. The architectural wood panels may also have one or more wooden crosspieces attached to the rectangular frame inside. The construction wood panel may have a heat insulating material such as glass wool, rock wool, or foam resin filled inside the rectangular frame. The lower end of the rear exterior wall 21 is joined to the rear end of the floor, and the rear exterior wall 21 is erected at the rear end of the floor. The rear exterior wall 21 has an opening and a door 31 installed in the opening. The right side exterior wall 22 is joined to the right end of the floor and erected at the right end of the floor. The right side exterior wall 22 has an opening and a waist-high window 32 installed in the opening. The left side exterior wall is joined to the left end of the floor and erected at the left end of the floor. The left side exterior wall is higher than the right side exterior wall 22. The left side exterior wall has an opening as a communication opening and an inward-swinging door installed in the opening. The lower end of the front exterior wall is joined to the front end of the floor, and the front exterior wall is erected at the front end of the floor. In one example, when the house 20 is a wooden house assembled using a wood panel adhesive construction method, the rear exterior wall 21, the right side exterior wall 22, the front exterior wall, and the left side exterior wall have construction wood panels and exterior materials attached thereto.

[0027] <4. The first trailer house's gable roof> The shed roof 40 is installed on the upper ends of the rear exterior wall 21, right side exterior wall 22, front exterior wall, and left side exterior wall, covering the living space enclosed by the rear exterior wall 21, right side exterior wall 22, front exterior wall, and left side exterior wall. The rear end, right end, front end, and left end of the shed roof 40 are joined to the upper end of the rear exterior wall 21, the upper end of the right side exterior wall 22, the upper end of the front exterior wall, and the upper end of the left side exterior wall, respectively. The left end of the shed roof 40 is higher than the right end of the shed roof 40, and the shed roof 40 slopes downward to the right. The shed roof 40 has a ridge at its left end and an eaves at its right end. The shed roof 40 has a roofing material 41 on its top layer, made of, for example, aluminum-zinc alloy plated steel sheet. In one example, when the house 20 is a wooden house assembled using a wood panel adhesive construction method, the shed roof 40 has construction wood panels, which are covered with roofing material 41. In another example, the shed roof 40 has sheathing boards covering the area surrounded by the rear exterior wall 21, the right side exterior wall 22, the front exterior wall, and the left side exterior wall, and the sheathing boards are covered with roofing material 41.

[0028] <5. The Second Trailer House> The second trailer house 110 includes a chassis 111, a house 120, a rear gable extender 150, and a front gable extender. In FIG. 1 , the front gable extender is not shown because it is hidden behind the houses 20 and 120. Hereinafter, the chassis 11 of the first trailer house 10 will also be referred to as the first chassis 11, and the chassis 111 of the second trailer house 110 will also be referred to as the second chassis 111. The house 20 of the first trailer house 10 will also be referred to as the first house 20, and the house 120 of the second trailer house 110 will also be referred to as the second house 120. The rear gable extender 50 of the first trailer house 10 will also be referred to as the first rear gable extender 50, and the rear gable extender 150 of the second trailer house 110 will also be referred to as the second rear gable extender 150. The front gable extender of the first trailer house 10 is also referred to as a first front gable extender, and the front gable extender of the second trailer house 110 is also referred to as a second front gable extender.

[0029] The second chassis 111 is provided in the same manner as the first chassis 11 .

[0030] Similar to the first house 20, the second house 120 has a floor on its bottom surface, a rear exterior wall 121 on its rear surface, a right side exterior wall 122 on its right side, a front exterior wall on its front surface, a left side exterior wall on its left side, and a shed roof 140 on its top surface. Hereinafter, the floor of the first house 20 will also be referred to as the first floor, and the floor of the second house 120 will also be referred to as the second floor. The rear exterior wall 21 of the first house 20 will also be referred to as the first rear exterior wall 21, and the rear exterior wall 121 of the second house 120 will also be referred to as the second rear exterior wall. The right side exterior wall 22 of the first house 20 will also be referred to as the first right side exterior wall 22, and the right side exterior wall 122 of the second house 120 will also be referred to as the second right side exterior wall 122. The front exterior wall of the first house 20 is also referred to as the first front exterior wall, and the front exterior wall of the second house 120 is also referred to as the second front exterior wall. The left side exterior wall of the first house 20 is also referred to as the first left side exterior wall, and the left side exterior wall of the second house 120 is also referred to as the second left side exterior wall. The left side exterior wall of the first house 20 is also referred to as the first left side exterior wall, and the left side exterior wall of the second house 120 is also referred to as the second left side exterior wall. The shed roof 40 of the first house 20 is also referred to as the first shed roof 40, and the shed roof 140 of the second house 120 is also referred to as the second shed roof 140.

[0031] Because the trailer house 10,110 is parked side-by-side, the first left-side exterior wall faces the second right-side exterior wall 122 on the left and right. Like the first left-side exterior wall, the second right-side exterior wall 122 has an opening serving as a connection port, and an inward-swinging door installed in the opening. The connection port in the second right-side exterior wall faces the connection port in the first left-side exterior wall. A connecting floor is installed from the lower edge of the connection port in the second right-side exterior wall to the lower edge of the connection port in the first left-side exterior wall. The connecting floor is not fixed to the trailer house 10,110, or, even if fixed to the trailer house 10,110, it can be removed from the trailer house 10,110 without using tools. A rain hood is installed from the periphery of the connection port in the second right-side exterior wall to the periphery of the connection port in the first left-side exterior wall, and the space above the connecting floor is enclosed by the rain hood, forming a passageway from the connection port in the second right-side exterior wall to the connection port in the first left-side exterior wall. The rain hood is not fixed to the mobile home 10,110, or, if fixed to the mobile home 10,110, is removable from the mobile home 10,110 without using tools.

[0032] The exterior shape of the house 120 of the second mobile home 110 is symmetrical to the exterior shape of the house 20 of the first mobile home 10 with respect to vertical symmetry planes along the front-to-back and top-to-bottom. Therefore, the second left side exterior wall has a height equal to that of the first right side exterior wall 22, and the second right side exterior wall 122 has a height equal to that of the first left side exterior wall. The right end of the second shed roof 140 is higher than the left end of the second shed roof 140, and the second shed roof 140 slopes downward toward the left. The second shed roof 140 has a ridge at its right end that is set at the same height as the ridge of the first shed roof 40. Because the mobile homes 10, 110 are parked side by side, the combination of the shed roofs 40, 140 appears to be a gable roof.

[0033] <6. Eaves and gable extenders> The rear gable end of the shed roof 40, 140 will be described in detail with reference to Figures 2 to 5. Figures 2 to 4 are enlarged views of area II shown in Figure 1. Figure 2 is a perspective view of area II viewed diagonally from below. Figures 3 and 4 are rear views of area II. Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view showing a surface along line VV shown in Figure 3 as viewed in the direction of the arrows. In Figures 3 and 4, reference numeral 24 denotes the first left side exterior wall.

[0034] As shown in Figure 5, the first shed roof 40 has a first rear eaves 42 at its rear gable end. The first rear eaves 42 protrudes very little or only slightly. In other words, the first rear eaves 42 either barely protrudes beyond the rear surface of the first rear exterior wall 21 or protrudes slightly rearward from the rear surface of the first rear exterior wall 21. The first shed roof 40 has a first rear eaves cover 43 that covers the first rear eaves 42. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the first rear eaves 42 and the first rear eaves cover 43 slope downward to the right, just like the first shed roof 40.

[0035] The first rear eaves cover 43 is made of a metal plate such as an aluminum-zinc alloy-plated steel plate and is shaped by press working or the like. As shown in FIG. 5, the first rear eaves cover 43 has an upper cover 44, a flange 45, a gable plate 46, and a rib 47. The upper cover 44 is formed as a thin plate extending along the rear edge of the upper surface of the first rear eaves 42. The upper cover 44 covers the upper surface of the first rear eaves 42. The flange 45 is provided behind the upper cover 44, continuing from the upper cover 44. The flange 45 extends rearward from the rear edge of the upper surface of the first rear eaves 42. The flange 45 is folded back at its rear end. Therefore, the flange 45 is provided in two pieces, consisting of an upper piece and a lower piece. The gable plate 46 is bent downward from the front edge of the lower piece of the flange 45. The gable plate 46 covers the rear end face of the first rear eaves 42. Gable board 46 protrudes below the underside of first rear eaves 42. Return 47 is folded back at the lower end of gable board 46. Note that roof material 41 of first shed roof 40 covers upper cover 44 and flange 45 and is folded back at the rear end of flange 45.

[0036] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the first rear gable extender 50 is attached to the ridge side portion of the first rear eaves 42 from above and behind the first rear eaves cover 43. The first rear gable extender 50 protrudes diagonally upward and to the left from the ridge side end of the first rear eaves 42 so as to extend the first rear eaves 42 diagonally upward toward the second house 120. The first rear gable extender 50 slopes downward toward the right. The first rear gable extender 50 can slide relative to the first rear eaves 42 and the first rear eaves 43 along the slope of the first shed roof 40. Therefore, as shown in Figure 4, the first rear gable extender 50 can be retracted toward the eaves beyond the ridge side end of the first rear eaves 42.

[0037] The first rear gable cover 43 is provided with a stopper to prevent disengagement and an over-retraction prevention stopper, such as a protrusion, and the sliding range of the first rear gable extender 50 is set by the stopper. When the overhanging length of the first rear gable extender 50 from the ridge-side end of the first rear gable 42 is at its maximum, the first rear gable extender 50 hits the stopper. The stopper limits further overhang of the first rear gable extender 50, preventing the first rear gable extender 50 from being removed from the first rear gable cover 43. When the entire first rear gable extender 50 is retracted toward the eaves beyond the ridge-side end of the first rear gable 42, the first rear gable extender 50 hits the stopper to prevent over-retraction. The stopper limits further movement of the first rear gable extender 50 toward the eaves.

[0038] The first rear gable extender 50 is made of a metal plate such as an aluminum-zinc alloy-plated steel plate and is shaped by press working or the like. As shown in FIG. 5 , the first rear gable extender 50 has an upper cover 51, a flange 52, a gable board 53, and a flank 54. The upper cover 51 is formed in a thin plate shape so as to extend along the rear edge of the upper surface of the first rear eaves 42. The upper cover 51 is stacked on the upper cover 44 of the first rear eaves cover 43 and the roofing material 41 on the upper surface of the first rear eaves 42. The first rear eaves cover 43 is folded back at its front end, and this fold reinforces the first rear eaves cover 43. The flange 52 is provided behind the upper cover 51, continuing from the upper cover 51. The flange 52 extends rearward from the rear edge of the upper surface of the first rear eaves 42. The flange 52 is folded back at its rear end. Therefore, the flange 52 is double-layered, consisting of an upper piece and a lower piece, and has a hollow between the upper and lower pieces. The flange 45 of the first rear eaves cover 43 is inserted into the hollow of the flange 52. The gable board 53 is bent downward from the front edge of the lower piece of the flange 52. The gable board 53 is overlapped on the gable board 46 of the first rear eaves cover 43. The burr 54 is folded back at the lower end of the gable board 53. The burr 54 hooks onto the burr 47 of the first rear eaves cover 43, and the angle formed by the burr 47 of the first rear eaves cover 43 and the gable board 46 fits into the angle formed by the burr 54 of the first rear gable extender 50 and the gable board 46.

[0039] The first rear gable extender 50 and the first rear eaves cover 43 may be the same color to enhance the sense of unity between them. Not only the first rear gable extender 50 and the first rear eaves cover 43, but also the exterior materials of the roof material 41, rear exterior wall 21, right side exterior wall 22, front exterior wall, and left side exterior wall 24 may be the same color.

[0040] Since sunlight and the like does not penetrate into the gap between the first house 20 and the second house 120 and a shadow is formed in the gap, if the first rear gable extender 50 is a dark color such as black or dark brown, the first rear gable extender 50 appears to be one with the gap between the first house 20 and the second house 120. If the first rear gable extender 50 is dark in color, the first rear eaves cover 43 may also be dark in color.

[0041] As shown in Figures 2 to 4, just as the first shelving roof 40 has a first rear eaves 42, the second shelving roof 140 has a second rear eaves 142 at its rear gable end. Just as the first shelving roof 40 has a first rear eaves cover 43, the second shelving roof 140 has a second rear eaves cover 143 that covers the second rear eaves 142. Because the trailer houses 10, 110 are parked side by side, the second rear eaves cover 143 is plane-symmetrical to the first rear eaves cover 43 with respect to vertical symmetry planes along the front-to-back and top-to-bottom. Therefore, just as the first rear eaves cover 43 has an upper cover 44, a flange 45, a gable board 46, and a burr 47, the second rear eaves cover 143 has an upper cover, a flange 145, a gable board 146, and a burr. Just as the first rear gable extender 50 is attached to the ridge side portion of the first rear eaves 42, the second rear gable extender 150 is attached to the ridge side portion of the second rear eaves 142. Because the trailer houses 10, 110 are parked side by side, the second rear gable extender 150 is plane-symmetrical to the first rear gable extender 50 with respect to vertical symmetry planes along the front-to-back and top-to-bottom. Therefore, just as the first rear gable extender 50 has an upper cover 51, a flange 52, a gable board 53, and a barb 54, the second rear gable extender 150 has an upper cover, a flange 152, a gable board 153, and a barb.

[0042] The second rear gable extender 150 protrudes diagonally upward to the right from the ridge-side end of the second rear eaves 142 so as to extend the second rear eaves 142 diagonally upward toward the first house 20. The second rear gable extender 150 slopes downward to the left. This protruding second rear gable extender 150 partially overlaps the similarly protruding first rear gable extender 50 in the gap between the first shed roof 40 and the second shed roof 140. The protruding rear gable extenders 50, 150 hide the gap between the first shed roof 40 and the second shed roof 140. Therefore, the rear gable extenders 50, 150 contribute to making the combination of the shed roofs 40, 140 appear like a gable roof.

[0043] The second rear gable extender 150 is not fixed to the first rear gable extender 50. The second rear gable extender 150 may abut the first rear gable extender 50, or a gap may exist between the second rear gable extender 150 and the first rear gable extender 50.

[0044] The second rear gable extender 150 and the second rear eaves cover 143 may be the same color. Not only the second rear gable extender 150 and the second rear eaves cover 143, but also the roof material of the second house 120, the exterior materials of the rear exterior wall 121, the right side exterior wall 122, the front exterior wall, and the left side exterior wall may be the same color. The second rear gable extender 150 and the first rear gable extender 50 may be the same color. Not only the second rear gable extender 150 and the first rear gable extender 50, but also the first rear eaves cover 43 and the second rear eaves cover 143 may be the same color. The second rear gable extender 150 and the rear eaves cover 143 may be a dark color such as black or dark brown.

[0045] Since sunlight and the like does not penetrate into the gap between the first house 20 and the second house 120 and a shadow is formed in the gap, if the first rear gable extender 50 is a dark color such as black or dark brown, the first rear gable extender 50 appears to be one with the gap between the first house 20 and the second house 120. If the first rear gable extender 50 is dark in color, the first rear eaves cover 43 may also be dark in color.

[0046] The second rear gable extender 150 is slidable relative to the second rear eaves 142 and the second rear eaves cover 143 along the slope of the second shed roof 140. Therefore, as shown in Figure 4, the second rear gable extender 150 can be retracted toward the eaves beyond the ridge-side end of the second rear eaves 142. Just as the sliding range of the first rear gable extender 50 is set by the stopper to prevent disengagement and the stopper to prevent excessive retraction, the sliding range of the second rear gable extender 150 is also set.

[0047] The first front ridge, first front ridge cover, and first front gable extender provided on the front gable side of the first shed roof 40 are provided symmetrically with respect to the left-right and top-bottom vertical center plane with respect to the first rear ridge 42, first rear ridge cover 43, and first rear gable extender 50 provided on the rear gable side of the first shed roof 40. The second front ridge, second front ridge cover, and second front gable extender provided on the front gable side of the second shed roof 140 are provided symmetrically with respect to the left-right and top-bottom vertical center plane with respect to the second rear ridge 142, second rear ridge cover 143, and second rear gable extender 150 provided on the rear gable side of the second shed roof 140. Therefore, when viewed from the front of the house 20,120, the first and second front gable extenders contribute to the appearance of the combined shed roof 40,140 as a gable roof.

[0048] <7. Summary> (1) The first and second trailer homes 10,110 are parked side by side, the houses 20,120 of the trailer homes 10,110 are positioned next to each other, and the shed roofs 40,140 of the houses 20,120 are positioned next to each other. The first shed roof 40 slopes downward as it moves away from the second house 120, and the second shed roof 140 of the second house 120 slopes downward as it moves away from the first house 20. This combination of shed roofs 40,140 looks like a gable roof.

[0049] (2) The first rear gable extender 50 is attached to the gable and ridge-side end of the first sheath roof 40. The first rear gable extender 50 protrudes from the ridge-side end of the first rear eaves 42 so as to extend the first rear eaves 42 on the gable side of the first sheath roof 40 diagonally upward toward the second house 120. Similarly, the second rear gable extender 150 protrudes from the ridge-side end of the second rear eaves 142 so as to extend the second rear eaves 142 on the gable side of the second sheath roof 140 diagonally upward toward the first house 20. Because these rear gable extenders 50, 150 partially overlap in the gap between the first sheath roof 40 and the second sheath roof 140, the first rear eaves 42 of the first sheath roof 40 and the second rear eaves 142 of the second sheath roof 140 appear to be connected in a mountain shape. This contributes to the appearance of the combination of sheave roofs 40, 140 as a gable roof.

[0050] (3) The first sheath roof 40 has a gable board 46 that covers the gable-side end face of the first rear eaves 42, and a first rear gable extender 50 is superimposed on the gable board 46. The second sheath roof 140 has a gable board 146 that covers the gable-side end face of the second rear eaves 142, and a second rear gable extender 150 is superimposed on the gable board 146. These rear gable extenders 50, 150 and gable boards 46, 146 contribute to making the combination of the sheath roofs 40, 140 look like a gable roof.

[0051] (4) Because the first rear gable extender 50 and the gable board 46 are the same color, the first rear gable extender 50 and the gable board 46 appear more integrated. Because the second rear gable extender 150 and the gable board 146 are the same color, the second rear gable extender 150 and the gable board 146 appear more integrated. This contributes to the appearance of the combination of the shed roof 40, 140 as a gable roof. If the rear gable extenders 50, 150 and the gable boards 46, 146 are all the same color, the integration between them is further enhanced.

[0052] (5) Because the rear gable extenders 50, 150 are dark in color, such as black or dark brown, the rear gable extenders 50, 150 appear to be integrated with the gap between the shed roofs 40, 140. Therefore, the combination of the shed roofs 40, 140 appears to be a gable roof.

[0053] (6) The first rear gable extender 50 is provided so as to be slidable relative to the first eaves 42 along the slope of the first gable roof 40. When the first rear gable extender 50 is retracted from the ridge-side end of the first rear eaves 42 toward the eaves of the first gable roof 40, the extension of the first rear gable extender 50 is eliminated. The same is true for the second front gable extender. Therefore, when the first trailer house 10 is towed on a public road, the first rear gable extender 50 and the second front extender do not interfere with the vehicle's travel direction. In particular, the retracted first rear gable extender 50 and the second front extender do not violate vehicle width restrictions on public roads. Similarly, when the second rear gable extender 150 and the second front gable extender are retracted, the second rear gable extender 150 and the second front gable extender do not interfere with the direction of travel when the second trailer house is towed on a public road.

[0054] (7) The energy used from the production to the disposal and disposal of wood is less than the energy used from the production to the disposal and disposal of metal or concrete materials. Therefore, if House 20,120 is a wooden house, Trailer Home 10,110 containing House 20,120 will contribute to the realization of a decarbonized society by promoting carbon neutrality, which reduces carbon dioxide emissions to virtually zero, and to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

[0055] (8) The above-disclosed embodiments have been made for the purpose of illustration and example only, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, which should be interpreted by the terms of the claims. [Explanation of symbols]
