Abstract
A portable and collapsible cabana structure is provided to enable ease of carrying to the beach or pool site, ease of assembly and ease of collapse, after use, to again enable ease of portability. The main body of the cabana structure is provided by three rectangular panels, the first of which is generally vertical, downwardly from approximately half to two-thirds of the height of the assembled cabana, to the ground, at the rear thereof; the second rectangular panel slopes upwardly and forwardly of the cabana from the first panel toward the front of the cabana; and, the third rectangular panel extends generally horizontally from the front of the second panel toward the front of the cabana. Viewing the structure from the front of the cabana, the left and right sides thereof are each made up of three triangular panels, the middle panel of which enables the admission to the cabana of air and light. To provide structural efficacy to each of the above-mentioned panels, a plurality of critical stiffening poles fit securely in channels and pockets provided by the panels, which are usually made of sheet plastic or synthetic material.
Description
- This invention relates generally to portable and collapsible beach and/or pool-side cabana huts, and more particularly to such huts which provide tautness for the sides thereof and yet which can be collapsed for providing portability and ease of assembly.
- It is common to think of a cabana or a cabana hut as a relatively permanent structure found normally at pool and beach clubs. Such permanent structures offer the ability of the user to sit or lie down at the beach, camping or at a pool. With respect to sitting or lying down in collapsible or portable structures, other than a tent-like structure, no existing portable structures have the structural ability to effectively provide the option of use on a beach, camping, at a picnic or at pool-side, as does the present invention.
- Accordingly, a primary object of the present invention is to provide a structurally efficacious cabana, which is collapsible and thereby portable;
- A further and more particular object is to provide a collapsible and portable cabana structure, which is light-weight and easy to assemble and disassemble; and
- A still further object of the present invention is to provide a portable and collapsible cabana which presents the capability of being large enough in size to provide room for two users to do those things commonly done at the beach, camping, picnic and at pool-side, and yet which is sturdy enough to withstand beach winds and other like beach hazzards.
- These and other objects of the present invention are provided in a portable, easily assembled and disassembled structure which is generally comprised of nine panels, the first three of which are larger than the others and rectangular in shape to form in sequence the back, the sloping top and the top front of the cabana structure. The other six panels are triangular in shape and three are fully connected to the edges at the left side of the aforementioned three rectangular panels; and the other three are at the right side edges, also fully connected to the first three rectangular panels. The six triangular panels are isosceles triangles and connected to the adjacent triangular panel, fully along the edge of one of the two equal sides. The point connecting the two equal sides of each triangle are coincident, for each triangle, with the two other triangular panels, at which point there is a means for anchoring the cabana in the sand or grass. Stakes are also used to anchor the structure at the two back corners of the cabana. The middle triangular panel on each side of the structure is made of the same plastic or synthetic light-weight material envisioned for the whole structure, and includes small openings to let in air and light. The structure of the cabana of the present invention is assembled by means of the various channels provided on the cabana inside of the light-weight plastic or synthetic material forming the “skin” of the cabana. Into such channels are fitted poles, and/or other stiffeners, some or all of which are movable and/or removable to disassemble the cabana for placement in a carrying bag, also made of light-weight plastic or synthetic material. Critically, at least two stiffeners are provided to make the entire structure taut and sturdy by supporting and expanding the triangular panel sides. Channels may be non-elongated loops, and the two critical stiffeners end in pockets.
- Other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent by reference to the following detailed description of the preferred, but nonetheless illustrative, embodiment of the present invention, with alternatives and with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
- FIG. 1 is an isometric view of a carrying bag for the disassembled cabana structure;
- FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the carrying bag and the disassembled structure of the cabana;
- FIG. 3 shows the unfolding of the disassembled cabana, as the first step for assembly thereof;
- FIG. 4 shows the second step of unfolding, following the FIG. 3 unfolding step, for assembling the cabana for use;
- FIG. 5 shows one side of the cabana structure using one set of three triangular panels, further advancing toward complete assembly;
- FIG. 6 shows the complete expansion step for the rectangular panels and the six side triangular panels;
- FIG. 7 is a sectional view taken along the line7-7 of FIG. 6 and showing the taut-providing critical stiffening poles being placed into channels to give efficacy to the portable cabana, when it is assembled;
- FIG. 8 shows the fully assembled cabana with both critical poles in place, adjacent the side triangular panels of the structure;
- FIG. 9 shows the detail of the critical pole structure and assembly at one side of the collapsible cabana;
- FIG. 10 is a sectional view, taken along the line10-10 of FIG. 9, showing a representative connecting and stiffening structure for the intersection of the rectangular with triangular panels of the cabana;
- Referring to the drawings, the carrying
bag 10 for a cabana structure according to the present invension is shown in FIG. 1, as including ahandle 12 or other convenient means for carrying the disassembled cabana. - FIG. 2 shows the carrying
bag 10, in an exploded view, with respect to the cabana structure generally designated 14. Criticalstiffening poles 16 are elongated, with a female, inside threaded opening defined at one end, and a male outside threaded surface at the other end.Sleeves 18 are usually of a flexible material such as plastic or rubber and are intended to cover (in a press fit) the junction point between two criticalstiffening poles 16, as would occur when one stiffening pole is screwed into another. Such a use of criticalstiffening poles 16 andsleeves 18 are shown, particularly in FIG. 7 and FIG. 9, whereby four criticalstiffening poles 16, and at least twosleeves 18 are used to provide a tautness and a stability to the entire structure by use of a side construction, generally designated 20, at each side of the cabana as is particularly shown in FIG. 6 of the drawings. - FIG. 3 illustrates the removed cabana structure, with respect to
bag 10, and is to show specifically that the removedstructure 10 is capable of folding and unfolding at its center point generally designated 22, with the unfolding or initial assembly step for the cabana structure being in directions shown byarrows 24 in FIG. 3. The unfolding atcenter point 22 is facilitated by means of rigid insert stiffening poles 26 (FIG. 4), and the use ofskin 28 of the cabana structure acting as a hinge, between insertstiffening poles 26 at the center point. - Particularly in FIGS. 6, 8 and9, it may be seen that the assembled cabana structure includes three
rectangular panels insert stiffener poles 26. Each of those insert stiffener poles for the long sides ofrectangular panels poles 26 extend generally rightwardly and leftwardly in the finished structure, and before assembly, have a space therebetween at approximatelycenter point 22. Upon assembly, one of the steps is to join the two parts of each generally horizontal insertstiffening pole 26 to the other inline part. This is accomplished, also as described previously, by reference to the most-forward (in the orientation of the assembled cabana; e.g. FIG. 6) insertstiffening pole 26′. Thatforward pole 26′, in two parts, nearcenter point 22, has a female threaded end and the other part has a male threaded end. Upon assembly, they are joined by simply grasping theskin 28 covering the insert pole stiffening area and moving the two parts ofpole 26′ to thread one part into the other. Otherstiffening poles 26, bordering the long sides of the rectangular panels, are assembled in the same manner. Of course, theskin 28 is permanently sewn to formchannels 27 defined byskin 28. Such channels, as torectangular panels stiffening poles panel 30, a second pole at the rearward long side ofpanel 30, a third at the rearward long side ofpanel 32, and a fourth at the bottom-most (see FIG. 6) long side ofpanel 34, all such channels formed byskin 28. In each panel, an important step in the assembly is to join the two parts of each horizontally oriented (see FIG. 6) insertstiffening pole 26. Such joining is as previously described by threading one part into the other by the user manipulating such parts by grasping the pole parts through the portion of theskin 28 used to formchannels 27. - As was mentioned previously herein, the sides of this cabana construction are made taut, and are provided with a stability for themselves and the entire structure by means of critical
stiffening poles 16. Each side construction is made up of three triangular panels, FIG. 4 showing each moved into assembly position in the direction ofarrows 20′ early in the assembly process, and then spread in the direction ofarrow 20″, as shown in FIG. 5. That spreading and the aforementioned tautness and stability are accorded the assembly by means of the insertion of criticalstiffening poles 16, which slide throughchannels 36 in the direction of arrow 38, as shown in FIG. 7 (of course,channels 36 may also be formed as loops, or completely foreshortened channels).Sleeves 18, which are shown in FIG. 2, as well as FIG. 7, are flexible, and yet sturdy enough, to align all four criticalstiffening poles 16, for each side construction by press-fitting thosepoles 16 for holding end to end, four such poles in a row for each side. Another construction would be similar to the end to end threaded joining ofinsert stiffener poles 26. In any event, the ends of the four pole alignment, for each side construction, conveniently fit insewn pockets 40 clearly shown in FIG. 7. The triangular panels, designed from bottom totop skin 28, are joined bychannels 48 into which are permanently sewn the same type ofinsert stiffener poles 26 as were used at the juncture of rectangular panels. As is shown clearly in FIG. 7, the lowermost portion ofinsert stiffener poles 26 are exposed through acircular cutout 29 ofskin 28. The purpose ofcutout 29 is to enable even easier manipulation ofpoles 26, for instance when assembling or disassembling the cabana, simply by touchingpole 26 incutout 29 and lifting it out of thepocket 31 for the fourpoles 26 for that side. Similarly, FIG. 9 shows an alternative forcutout 29 wherebypoles 26 protrude belowchannels 48 sewn at various places on theskin 28 of the cabana. This also gives access for removal ofpoles 26 on each side from the four holding channels provided bypocket 31. - Referring particularly to the enlarged intersection of two rectangular panels with two triangular panels, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, a right angle
double receptor 52, with internal threading at each end (alternatively) is used to receive insertstiffening poles 26, one at each end. At least one pole (preferably the lower pole, in the orientation of FIG. 9) is disengaged from each right angle receptor at each of the four intersections (for each side), again to enable theskin 28 to act as a hinge, in order to fold the collapsed cabana assembly from the position in FIG. 4, so that it fits within carryingbag 10. Actually, as shown in FIG. 10, theright angle receptor 52 has one end internally threaded and one end externally threaded to receiveinsert stiffening poles 26 at the female end thereof. - Straps54, 56 of FIGS. 6, 7 and 8 are used for staking the four corners of the cabana to provide even further stability.
- Lastly, alternatively, a further couple of
critical stiffening poles 16 are usable at the center portion (FIG. 6) of the cabana to enable even more stability and width for the final assembly. In this event, two or fourcritical stiffening poles 16 can be used in line withsleeves 18, as was indicated for the othercritical stiffening poles 16 of FIG. 9. - In order to provide a more complete understanding of the present invention, a brief set of assembly and disassembly steps are now provided. In terms of assembly, the cabana structure stored in carrying
bag 10 is removed therefrom, includingcritical stiffening poles 16 withsleeves 18. The removed structure is opened at approximately itsmidpoint 22 by rotating the two halves of the structure in the direction ofarrow 24 in FIG. 3, using theskin 28 material as the hinge for such rotations. Again, usingskin 28 as the hinges, theside panel constructions 20 are moved in the direction ofarrows 20′ of FIG. 4, thereby to provide an inverted “U” structure. Thechannels 27 sewn intoskin 28 are manipulated with the four top horizontalinsert stiffener poles 26′, 26 so thatinsert stiffener pole 26′, and the otherinsert stiffener poles 26 are joined at approximatelymidpoint 22. The bottoms of side panels' insert stiffener poles are then manipulated to join with the bottoms ofright angle receptors 52, and the same fourpoles 26 are then placed appropriately within thechannels 31 at the front bottoms ofsides 20. Most importantly,critical stiffening poles 16 are joined in line with each other and placed throughchannel 36 for eachside 20 of the structure, appropriately fitting inpockets 40. This provides tautness and strudiness to the entire structure. Stakes may then be place appropriately throughstraps - Disassembly for storage and carrying in
bag 10 is accomplished by first disconnectingcritical poles 16 from thesides 20 and then from each other, or in the alternative, bent atsleeves 18. Either before or after that initial disassembly step, stakes throughstraps - At the sides of the structure, insert stiffener poles are removed from
pockets 31, and also from right angledouble receptors 52, but only from one bottom end of those receptors.Sides 20 are then folded, first opposite to the direction ofarrow 20″ (FIG. 5) to collapsesides 20, in a direction opposite toarrows 20′ (FIG. 4), after which the remaining structure is folded atmidpoint 22 following disengagement of the parts ofpoles 26 bordering the rectangular panels. The entire structure andpoles 16 are then placed into carryingbag 10. - The foregoing provides a complete description and understanding of the cabana structure of the present invention; but the scope of the invention is to be accorded only by the following claims:
