Abstract
Disclosed is a panel enclosure system for enclosing partially unenclosed structures. The system includes a panel member assembly preferably comprising at least two panel members and a securing member that removably secures the panel member assembly over the unenclosed portion of a structure. The panel members of the panel member assembly may be individually removed to vary the degree of exposure to outdoor weather and environmental conditions. Preferably, the panel members comprising the panel member assembly vary in degree of transparency such that users may vary the level of visual exposure to the surrounding outdoor environment by adding or removing panel members.
Claims13
A panel enclosure system, comprising:
- a panel member assembly comprising a first panel member removably secured to a second panel member, wherein the first panel member coextensively positions over the second panel member, and wherein a transparency of the second panel member is greater than a transparency of the first panel member;
- a securing member positioned at a structure, wherein the securing member receives the panel member assembly such that the panel member assembly hangs downwardly from the securing member and creates an upright barrier for the structure;
- and
- a panel connecting system positioned at the panel member assembly, wherein the panel connecting system facilitates in connecting and separating the panel member assembly from the structure,
- wherein the panel connecting system comprises a combination of a zipper mechanism and a hook and loop mechanism, wherein the hook and loop mechanism comprises a strip, wherein the strip connects to the structure, wherein the strip comprises loops, wherein the hook and loop mechanism further comprises a first zipper, wherein the hook and loop mechanism comprises hooks drawn through the loops and connecting the first zipper, wherein the zipper mechanism comprises a second zipper connecting the panel member assembly, wherein the first zipper and the second zipper receive a zipper slider, and wherein the zipper slider slides along the first zipper and the second zipper for connecting and separating the panel member assembly from the structure.
A panel enclosure system, comprising:
- a panel member assembly comprising a first panel member, a second panel member, and a third panel member positioned in coextensive relation to one another, wherein a transparency of each of the first panel member, the second panel member, and the third panel member is different from one another;
- a securing member positioned at a structure, wherein the securing member receives the panel member assembly such that the panel member assembly hangs downwardly from the securing member and creates an upright barrier for the structure;
- and
- a panel connecting system positioned at the panel member assembly, wherein the panel connecting system facilitates in connecting and separating the panel member assembly from the structure,
- wherein the panel connecting system comprises a combination of a zipper mechanism and a hook and loop mechanism, wherein the hook and loop mechanism comprises a strip, wherein the strip connects to the structure, wherein the strip comprises loops, wherein the hook and loop mechanism further comprises a first zipper, wherein the hook and loop mechanism comprises hooks drawn through the loops and connecting the first zipper, wherein the zipper mechanism comprises a second zipper connecting the panel member assembly, wherein the first zipper and the second zipper receive a zipper slider, and wherein the zipper slider slides along the first zipper and the second zipper for connecting and separating the panel member assembly from the structure.
