Abstract: A foldable panel combination for a modular greenhouse is described. The combination includes a first side panel hingedly connected with a first roof panel at a first hinge, a second side panel hingedly connected with a second roof panel at a second hinge, and a third hinge that hingedly connects the first roof panel to the second roof panel. The combination also includes a truss brace. In the collapsed state, the first side panel, second side panel, first roof panel, and second roof panel are stacked and the truss brace is detached. In an assembled state, the first side panel, second side panel, first roof panel, second roof panel are unfolded and truss brace is attached to the first and second roof panels to form an upright stable structure. The combination can also include a roof dormer having four hingedly connected triangular sections transitionable to a stacked collapsed state.
Abstract: A foldable panel combination for a modular greenhouse is described. The combination includes a first side panel, a second side panel, a first roof panel, and a second roof panel that are hingedly connected. The combination is transitionable between a collapsed state and an open state. In the collapsed state, the four panels are in a stacked configuration. In the open state, the panels form a sidewall-to-roof-to-roof-to-sidewall structure that can be connected with other panel combinations for linear expansion. Each panel comprises a rectangular frame and a cover for enclosing art open space in the middle of the frame.
Abstract: The invention could be a prefabricated modular greenhouse comprising a plurality of sections, each section constructed from a framework further creating an open space that is enclosed by a cover attached to the framework; a first group of sections from the plurality of sections forming a plurality of foldable panels, two or more foldable panels being connected together in a manner to allow the one foldable panel to fold upon the second foldable panel for a compact state; a second group of sections from the plurality of sections are connected together to form at least one non-foldable panel; and the connected non-foldable panels and the at least one foldable panel being removably connected to form an assembled modular greenhouse that allows additional non-foldable panels non-foldable panels or both to be added to assembled modular greenhouse to subsequently change one or more architectural details of the assembled modular greenhouse.
