| 052086000 | VERTICALLY CURVED ARCH WITH TERMINAL SUPPORT | 12 |
| 20090031643 | Utility meter shield and method of installation - A utility meter shield for protecting the utility meter from the weight of snow, fallen tree limbs and the like. The shield has a plurality of arched support members held in a spaced relationship by transverse cross members. An arched cover spans between the arched members, extending over the upper portions and most of the side portions of the arched members. The legs of the arched members rest on the ground on opposite sides of the utility meter. An optional auxiliary cover is secured to the arched cover extending between the arched cover and the building structure for protecting conduits leading from the utility to the structure. A screen can be secured to the front arched member for further protection. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20090235593 | Decoration solar panel bridge supplying power sources - A decoration solar panel bridge supplying power sources, for commercial and residential applications, incorporates at least one solar panel in a decoration bridge comprising members of frame, cross brace and board. The wide boards including solar panels cover straight beams and cross braces as a partial or full surface of the bridge. The slice boards cover the top arc beams or alternative round beams as partial surfaces of the bridge. Each solar panel output power and dimension can be designed for desired power consumption and needed. The alternative frame members can be used to construct different shapes of the bridge and can replace the curve shape frame members. The decoration bridge includes optional members: safety fence members, supporting members and handrail members. Solar powered lights can be installed at the top of safety poles and solar powered light stands can replace the vertical spindle of handrails. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20100024320 | Arch Structure - This invention concerns an arch structure. In particular, the invention relates to an arch structure comprised of at least two segments which are rotatably linked to each other via hinges or equivalent means to form a continuous bendable chain of attached segments. The segments have magnets above the rotatable or hinged link on opposed end faces, positioned to oppose magnets on confronting end faces of adjacent arch segments, with like poles facing one another, thereby creating a repulsion force. The repulsion force inhibits the arch segments from being brought together and into contact. Due to this effect, the aggregate of the arch segments define an arcuate path (convex upward), maintained by the repulsion forces of the magnets. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100088977 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FINISHING A WALL SURFACE - A method and system finish member for forming a wall surface is provided. The finish member comprises a substantially organic material having a length along a longitudinal axis and a thickness perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and the finish member is flexible along the length in a direction of the thickness. | 04-15-2010 |
| 20110232203 | System and method for attaching a wall to a building structure - An attachment member formed from sheet material configured to connect a wall to a curved roof of a building structure. The attachment member includes at least two segments: a first segment having a flat center portion and a pair of walls extending perpendicular to the center portion in cross section, the pair of walls defining a recess oriented in a direction perpendicular to the center portion, wherein the recess is adapted to accommodate a portion of a wall of a building structure; and a second segment extending from one of the walls of the first segment, the second segment being oriented in a same plane as the flat center portion of the first segment in cross section, the second segment including a longitudinal rib, the longitudinal rib protruding in cross section from the second segment, the longitudinal rib being adapted to mate with a rib of a curved building panel. Building structures made using such attachment members and an attachment member forming system are also described. | 09-29-2011 |
| 20130118095 | SHADE SHELTERS AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS THEREFOR - Shade shelters for reducing air conditioning loads of an associated shelter are provided. The shade shelters aim to reduce the thermal radiation effects of the sun on associated shelters, such as temporarily erected shelters. The shade shelters can be configurable so that natural convection is advantageously utilized for aiding in reducing heat transfer into the interior space of the associated shelter. The natural convection can be in the form of the “chimney effect” for reducing heat transfer into the interior space of the shelter. | 05-16-2013 |
| 20130227896 | Building Panels Having Hook and Loop Seams, Building Structures, and Systems and Methods for Making Building Panels - A building panel formed from sheet material is disclosed, the building panel extending in a longitudinal direction along its length and having a shape in cross section in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The building panel includes a center portion in cross section, a first connecting portion connected at one side of the center portion, the first connecting portion comprising a loop in cross section, and a second connecting portion connected at an opposing side of the center portion, the second connecting portion comprising a hook in cross section, wherein the loop and the hook are complementary in size and shape for joining the building panel to adjacent building panels. Building structures comprised of such building panels, and methods and systems for forming such building panels are also disclosed. | 09-05-2013 |
| 20130239488 | BAY-TYPE GREENHOUSE WITH OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE - The invention relates to a “span” type greenhouse designed to be installed in “multi-span” runs each covering several thousand square meters uninterrupted, this “span” type greenhouse being constituted by a plurality of structural units installed parallel to one another over the entire length of the bay defined under the span. In accordance with the invention, with the greenhouse being such that the ratio of the distance (F) between the top (C) of the greenhouse and the horizontal straight line passing through the top ends of the side posts (PLG, PLD) over the bay width (LN) is less than ⅕, this dimension ratio posing, in particular, a major condensation problem at the center of the greenhouse, this greenhouse is also provided with central double opening windows (06, OD), the transverse profile of the greenhouse with its opening windows closed being such that, on either side of the greenhouse, the angle formed between the straight line that is tangential to the arch segment (CiD, CiG)) in the transverse plane of the greenhouse at the side lintel (LD, LG) and the straight line intersecting the hinge axis and the end of the closed side opening window (OD, OG) in the transverse plane of the greenhouse is non-zero in the direction of the concave side of the profile of the greenhouse, this break in slope procuring a slope for the closed opening window (OD, OG) that is greater than or equal to 15°. | 09-19-2013 |
| 20130263529 | REINFORCEMENT RIB AND OVERHEAD STRUCTURE INCORPORATING THE SAME - A reinforcement rib for an overhead structure comprises a pair of sidewalls and a top wall that bridges one end of each sidewall. A lower flange extends outwardly from an opposite end of each sidewall. Each lower flange is adapted to be secured to the overhead structure. | 10-10-2013 |
| 20140290153 | CONSTRUCTION-UNIT FOR IMMEDIATE OR PERMANENT SHELTER - A construction-unit ( | 10-02-2014 |
| 20160201326 | Modular Roof Structure | 07-14-2016 |
| 052089000 | Stonelike modules form arch | 1 |
| 20090100770 | Architrave Support and Architrave Relating Thereto - An architrave support for supporting one or more sections comprises a plurality of planar portions and preferably a base support which together form a preferably self supporting arch-like shaped architrave support. Each planar portion has a pair of opposite oblique ends abutting another said planar portion or the base support. The plurality of planar portions are in series, preferably mitred, at their oblique ends to form the arch-like shaped architrave support. The support may be preformed or in a kit, either together with or separately to corresponding architrave portions for attachment thereto to form an architrave. The support is useful for forming architrave arches above doorways or windows. | 04-23-2009 |
