发明名称 Modular construction conduit unit
摘要 A modular conduit unit system and method for exemplary uses in routing utility lines and storage management of fluids. The modular conduit units may include independent dome-shaped structures including four orthogonally oriented openings and internal chambers. On connection of many conduit units, multiple passageways are created for routing utility lines through the modular structure. Closure panels may be selectively installed to close off the conduit units and passageways for underground storage of fluids or other materials. The modular units are capable of being encased by materials including concrete for underground and concrete floors and walls of commercial buildings.

主权项 1. A modular conduit unit for use in defining a passageway or storage volume, the conduit unit comprising: A bottom portion comprising four legs defining a first, a second, a third and a fourth side orthogonally positioned with respect to one another and each further defining a respective first, a second, a third and a fourth opening, two of the first, the second, the third and the fourth openings positioned along a first chamber axis and the other two of the first, the second, the third and the fourth openings positioned along a second chamber axis, each of the four legs further comprising a foot pad having a plate member extending outwardly from the foot pad; a top portion connected to the bottom portion, the top and bottom portions defining an interior chamber volume beneath the top portion in communication with the first, the second, the third and the fourth openings defining at least one first through passage between two of the first, the second, the third or the fourth openings; a connector attached to the bottom portion adapted to connect a second modular conduit unit to the bottom portion to extend the through passage passageway and increase the interior chamber volume; and a base connector, the base connector defining a plurality of slots adapted for engaging the respective foot pad plate member on adjacent modular conduit units to position and orient the respective modular conduit units to one another.
