ABSTRACT:
An enclosure assembly including a frame having guides for positioning a plurality of stiff elongate panels across an opening through the frame one above another in edge-to-edge relationship and for affording edgewise movement of the panels along the guides through the top of the frame to an open position. The panels are attached together by lengths of non porous flexible material attached along the adjacent edges of each pair of adjacent panels so that the lengths of flexible material form into a generally cylindrical projections from the sides of the adjacent panels when the panels are supported on each other. The lengths of non porous flexible material are tensioned between the panels to lift the lower panels when the uppermost panel is lifted in the guides by rotating a plate like spindle at the top of the frame to wrap on the panels and move the panels to the open position.
