Abstract

A modular exterior building assembly comprising a plurality of non-insulated panels including at least one front wall panel, at least one rear wall panel, at least two side wall panels and at least one roof panel. Each of the non-insulated panels includes beams having rotating hooks and/or pins therein. The hooks are configured to be rotated to engage the pins in adjacent beams of adjacent non-insulated panels to connect the non-insulated panels together to form the modular exterior building.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A modular exterior building assembly comprising:
 a plurality of non-insulated panels including at least one front wall panel, at least one rear wall panel, at least two side wall panels and at least one roof panel;   each of the non-insulated panels including beams having rotating hooks and/or pins therein;   the hooks being configured to be rotated to engage the pins in adjacent beams of adjacent non-insulated panels to connect the non-insulated panels together to form a modular exterior building.   
     
     
         2 . The modular exterior building assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein:
 the plurality of non-insulated panels further includes at least one floor panel.   
     
     
         3 . The modular exterior building assembly according to  claim 2 , wherein:
 the at least one floor panel comprises two floor panels;   the at least one front wall panel comprises two front wall panels and a front triangular panel;   the at least one rear wall panel comprises two rear wall panels and a rear triangular panel;   the at least two side wall panels comprise a pair of first side wall panels and a pair of second side wall panels; and   the at least one roof panel comprises two roof panels.   
     
     
         4 . The modular exterior building assembly according to  claim 3 , wherein:
 the two roof panels are configured to be engaged with each other at an angle to form an angled roof for the modular exterior building.   
     
     
         5 . The modular exterior building assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein:
 the beams are formed of wood.   
     
     
         6 . The modular exterior building assembly according to  claim 5 , wherein:
 the at least one roof panel includes an exterior metal sheet for protection against moisture falling onto the modular exterior building assembly from entering the modular exterior building assembly.   
     
     
         7 . A modular exterior building comprising:
 a plurality of non-insulated panels including at least one front wall panel, at least one rear wall panel, at least two side wall panels and at least one roof panel;   each of the non-insulated panels including beams having rotating hooks and/or pins therein;   the hooks engaging pins in adjacent beams of adjacent non-insulated panels to connect the non-insulated panels together to form the modular exterior building, with the modular exterior building having side walls and an angled roof.   
     
     
         8 . The modular exterior building according to  claim 7 , wherein:
 the plurality of non-insulated panels further includes at least one floor panel.   
     
     
         9 . The modular exterior building according to  claim 8 , wherein:
 the at least one floor panel comprises two floor panels;   the at least one front wall panel comprises two front wall panels and a front triangular panel;   the at least one rear wall panel comprises two rear wall panels and a rear triangular panel;   the at least two side wall panels comprise a pair of first side wall panels and a pair of second side wall panels; and   the at least one roof panel comprises two roof panels.   
     
     
         10 . The modular exterior building according to  claim 9 , wherein:
 the two roof panels are engaged with each other at an angle to form an angled roof for the modular exterior building.   
     
     
         11 . The modular exterior building according to  claim 8 , wherein:
 the beams are formed of wood.   
     
     
         12 . The modular exterior building according to  claim 11 , wherein:
 the at least one roof panel includes an exterior metal sheet for protection against moisture falling onto the modular exterior building from entering the modular exterior building.   
     
     
         13 . A method of forming a modular exterior building comprising:
 providing a plurality of non-insulated panels including at least one front wall panel, at least one rear wall panel, at least two side wall panels and at least one roof panel;   providing each of the non-insulated panels including beams having rotating hooks and/or pins therein;   positioning each of the non-insulated panels adjacent to at least one other of the non-insulated panels;   rotating the hooks to thereby engage the hooks with pins in adjacent beams of adjacent non-insulated panels to connect the non-insulated panels together to form the modular exterior building.   
     
     
         14 . The method of forming the modular exterior building according to  claim 13 , wherein:
 the plurality of non-insulated panels further includes at least one floor panel.   
     
     
         15 . The method of forming the modular exterior building according to  claim 14 , wherein:
 the at least one floor panel comprises two floor panels;   the at least one front wall panel comprises two front wall panels and a front triangular panel;   the at least one rear wall panel comprises two rear wall panels and a rear triangular panel;   the at least two side wall panels comprise a pair of first side wall panels and a pair of second side wall panels; and   the at least one roof panel comprises two roof panels.   
     
     
         16 . The method of forming the modular exterior building according to  claim 15 , further including:
 engaging the two roof panels with each other at an angle to form an angled roof for the modular exterior building.   
     
     
         17 . The method of forming the modular exterior building according to  claim 13 , wherein:
 the beams are formed of wood.   
     
     
         18 . The method of forming the modular exterior building according to  claim 17 , wherein:
 the at least one roof panel includes an exterior metal sheet for protection against moisture falling onto the modular exterior building assembly entering the modular exterior building.
