The purpose of this design is to create both a shelter, and a vehicle to use for work for people who do not have a domicile and live on what they collect from the streets. This design is a combination of simple ideas.
A collecting device very similar to a known one, and some simple ideas, like a tent are put together to create a plain and cheap solution.
In this design, the user can always carry her/his house along, or they can keep collecting from the streets with a detachable container section.
Telescobic legs are used to form the tent. When these legs are brought down and the back part is extended with the help of a rail mechanism, the construction of the tent is formed.
The canvas that covers this construction has zippers in the corner combination points, and when these are zipped, a closed shelter of 190cmx90cm is formed. There is also a foldable bed in between the main supporting legs (it is detached from the ground so it does not get into direct contact with the air or ground conditions).
The user can transform this vehicle into a shelter in around 1 minute, which is a very short time frame.
