Abstract
A portable garage is disclosed that has a tubular frame having a horizontal central roof ridge and two spaced parallel side edge members supported by a plurality of generally vertical legs. The frame is constructed of tubular sections and joint members that telescopically and removably connect together. A removable flexible sheet of preferably waterproof fabric material spans the roof ridge and extends over the side edge members of the frame and is fastened to the side edge members with a plurality of spaced buckle and strap fasteners that are secured to the roof material at a location spaced from the side edges of the sheet. The garage has removable fabric material side walls fastened to the frame, a rear end wall, and a front end wall fastened to the frame. The front end wall has a pair of spaced parallel vertical zippers defining a flap forming a roll up door. A pair of pulleys are spaced apart above the flap and fastened to the front end wall. A pair of cords passing over the pulleys and around a bottom end of the flap are used to raise and lower the roll up door.

side wall 106 is preferably removably fastened to theframe 102 similarly via elastic loop andball fasteners 135 looped through grommets long the edges of theside wall 106 and around the adjacentframe edge members 124 andlegs 103. The upper edge of eachside wall 106 fits underneath thevalence 134 so that theroof 104 can shed rain and theside walls 106 andend walls roof 104 in place on theframe 102, forming a simple canopy. Eachend wall frame 102 via elastic loop andball fasteners 135. - The
frame 102 is preferably anchored to the ground or other generally horizontal support surface via a plurality ofanchor hooks 139 which each pass through agrommet 141 in thevalence 134 and hook over theedge members 124 as shown inFIG. 2 . Aguy line 143 extends from theanchor hook 139 to aground stake 145 which is preferably screwed into the ground to anchor theframe 102 in place. - Each
side wall 106 has a pair of horizontally spaced transparentplastic windows 136. Eachwindow 136 is covered on its exterior side by a portion of theside wall 106 defined by vertical and horizontal slits through theside wall 106 to form aflap 138 that can be rolled up to permit light into the enclosure of thegarage 100. Theflap 138 preferably may be held down or up via hook and loop fasteners. Theflap 138 may be located so as to roll up along the exterior of the side wall or alternatively on the interior of theside wall 106. Optionally, anadditional flap 138 may be provided on the opposing side of the window such that the window has both an inner and anouter rollup flap 138. - Each
side wall 106 also preferably has at least a pair of spaced mesh pockets sewn, heat welded, or otherwise secured to theside walls 106 and/or theend wall 110. Thesepockets 140, preferably on the interior of theside wall 106, permit handy storage locations for various items such as vehicle washing materials etc. - Referring now specifically to
FIGS. 1, 5 and 6, the front end wall of thegarage 100 is shown.

When thezippers 144 are unzipped, thedoor 142 may be raised by pulling oncords 146. One of thecords 146 passes through onepulley 148 and loops below thedoor 142 and back to the top of thepanel 142. Theother cord 146 passes through thesame pulley 148 and through anotherpulley 148 adjacent the other edge of thedoor panel 142 before looping down around the bottom edge of thedoor panel 142 and back to the top of thedoor panel 142. - The
bottom edge 150 of thedoor panel 142 is preferably stiffened and weighted so that thedoor panel 142 will naturally roll up when thecords 146 are pulled to raise thedoor panel 142. Thebottom edge 150 of thedoor panel 142 is preferably folded over and sewn or otherwise fastened together to form a tubular passage through which a rod, dowel, or other elongated stiffener may be inserted for this purpose. - Although not shown in
FIGS. 1-6 , each of thelegs 103 can be inserted into a flat disk shaped fitting for fastening to concrete or staked to the ground. Theroof 104,sides 106 andends ball fasteners 135 may be replaced with buckle/strap fasteners or straps having patches of hook and loop closure fabric secured thereto. Alternatively thefasteners 135 may be replaced with a strip of material having hooks on one surface of the strip and loops on the opposite surface such that when the strip is threaded through the grommets and the ends are overlapped around theedge members 124 orposts 103 the hooks engage the loops to hold the fasteners and thus the roof to theedge members 124. - Each of the
legs 103 is preferably formed of a pair of identicaltubular members 200 shown inFIG. 7 , each having at one end a reduced diameter portion 202 and adimple 204 in the opposite end of thetubular member 200. The reduced diameter portion 202 has an “L”shaped groove 206 in the surface with itslong leg 208 extending axially from the open end of thetubular member 200. Thedimple 204 is located at a position spaced from the opposite end and sized such that when the reduced diameter portion 202 of onemember 200 is inserted fully into the opposite end of anothertubular member 200, the joinedmembers 200 may be oppositely twisted to cause the dimple to ride in theshort leg 210 of the groove to axially interlock the twotubular members 200 together. Similarly, the portion of thecorner members 114 andcross members 116 that receive the upper ends of thelegs 103 havecorresponding dimples 204 so that thelegs 103 can be interlocked into the corresponding corner orcross members frame 102 is also preferably formed by two or more interlockingtubular members 200 as shown inFIG. 7 . However, the corner and cross members that receive thesesections 200 directed toward or forming the ridge preferably do not include dimples 204. - While the apparatus has been described in terms of what are presently considered to be the most practical and preferred embodiments, it is to be understood that the disclosure need not be limited to the disclosed embodiments. It is intended to cover various modifications and similar arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the claims, the scope of which should be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and similar structures. The present disclosure includes any and all embodiments of the following claims.
