Abstract
A modular structure system of detachable members, the system includes a support pillar and various connectors. The support pillar has a main body and a plurality of channel walls outwardly radiating from an outside surface of the main body. The channel walls are disposed lengthwise on the main body from one terminal end of the main body to another terminal end of the main body. The support pillar has a symmetrical cross-sectional shape and each of the channel walls has an expanded distal end forming two lips.
Claims13
A support pillar, comprising:
- a main body;
- a plurality of channel walls outwardly radiating from an outside surface of the main body, wherein said plurality of channel walls are disposed lengthwise on the main body and defines a plurality of channels, and each of said plurality of channels has a channel floor which is a part of the outside surface of the main body;and
- a plurality of floor holes disposed and penetrating completely through a first channel floor and a second channel of said channel floors;
- wherein each of said plurality of channel walls has an expanded distal end defining at least two angled lips, respectively disposed on opposite sides of each respective channel wall.
The support pillar as recited in claim 2, wherein the main body has a center bore configured to receive a connecting core, said connecting core has a connecting core hole, and a fastener is used to penetrating through said floor hole and insert into said connecting core hole when said connecting core is inserted into said main body.
The support pillar as recited in claim 3, wherein said floor hole corresponds with said connecting core hole in at least one of size and position.
A support pillar, comprising:
- a main body;
- a plurality of channel walls outwardly radiating from an outside surface of the main body, wherein said plurality of channel walls are disposed lengthwise on the main body and defines eight channels, and each of said eight channels has a channel floor which is a part of the outside surface of the main body;
- and
- a plurality of floor holes disposed and penetrating completely through a first channel floor and a second channel floor of said channel floors;
- wherein each of said plurality of channel walls has an expanded distal end defining at least two angled lips, respectively disposed on opposite sides of each respective channel wall.
