ABSTRACT:
A structure that is collapsible from a volume-enclosing, expanded position to a position wherein the walls and roof are disposed in a horizontally extending stack of generally vertically disposed members. The roof is pivotally mounted to an upper portion of a free-standing rear wall (which is operatively connected to the ground in free-standing position), and the front wall is pivotally connected to the roof generally along the front edge of the roof. A floor may be provided having at least a portion thereof pivotal with respect to the rear wall so that it can be disposed generally parallel or perpendicular to the rear wall. The side walls may be mounted to the rear wall so that they pivot outwardly with respect to the rear wall, the rear wall being disposed between the side walls and the front wall when the structure is in collapsed position. An interior partition can be provided in the structure, and mechanisms may be utilized for interconnecting two such structures together. Channel guides are formed on the bottom of the floor for receipt of a straight bracing member, and the channel guides may also be utilized for supporting the structure for transport in a collapsed position.
