Patent ID: 7604141

Claim:
A polygonal modular housing unit comprising, an intermodal cargo container, wherein said intermodal cargo container is cut into three sections, each of said three sections having a vertical cross section and a horizontal cross section, wherein each of said vertical cross sections is rectangular, wherein the first of said horizontal cross sections is a first trapezoid, the second of said horizontal cross sections is a second trapezoid, and the third of said horizontal cross sections is a right isosceles triangle, wherein said right isosceles triangle has two equal sides, a base, a right angle opposite said base, and a vertical wall depending from said base, wherein each of said first and second trapezoids has a four-sided perimeter, three sides of said four-sided perimeter having vertical walls extending therefrom, said fourth side being open, wherein said fourth open side of said first trapezoid is joined to said fourth open side of said second trapezoid forming a substantially “L” shaped structure, said substantially “L” shaped structure having an exterior corner and an opposing interior vertex angle, wherein said interior vertex angle is a right angle, said interior vertex angle being flanked by two sides adjacent to said interior vertex angle, and wherein said two sides adjacent to said interior vertex angle are joined to said equal sides of said right isosceles triangle, thereby forming a polygonal modular housing unit.
