  • Patent number: 10819887
    Abstract: A shelter module includes a casing and a sliding door. The casing has an outer surface and a limiting slot. The limiting slot sinks inward from the outer surface. The limiting slot has a bottom side, a through hole and a first tactile bump. The through hole is disposed on the bottom side. The first tactile bump protrudes from the bottom side. The sliding door slides between an open position and a closed position in the limiting slot to expose or hide the through hole. The sliding door has a hiding side facing the bottom side. The sliding door has its thickness reduced from the hiding side to form a relief recess and an interfering portion adjacent to the relief recess. As soon as the sliding door slides from the open position to the closed position, the interfering portion slides past the first tactile bump to generate a tactile feedback.
