  • Patent number: 4012872
    Abstract: A geodesic dome-like structure of the disclosure is constructed from a plurality of generally equilateral triangular panels whose sides are each defined by a plurality of elongated rods extending in spaced relationship to each other. Opposite ends of the rods associated with each panel side are secured to the ends of the rods associated with the other two sides. A plurality of generally planar hinge plates are fixed to the rods in a longitudinally spaced relationship and have their planes oriented perpendicular to the elongated direction of the rods. Pintles pivotally interconnect the hinge plates associated with adjacent panel sides about axes intermediate the rods so that the panels pivot relative to each other about axes located outwardly from their sides. The pintles take the form of elongated pintle rods or headed pins.
