Title: John Carmody and His Self-Supporting Roof Panel Patent
Introduction
John Carmody is an inventor associated with Minneapolis, Minnesota, and the Regents of the University of Minnesota. His patent work includes a building-panel design intended to support roof structures while improving insulation continuity.
Latest Patents
Carmody is credited with one patent, titled “Self-supporting roof panel.” The invention describes a panel system for building components, including roofs that do not require independent supports between the ends of the panels. Its structural base has a top face sheet supported by longitudinally load-carrying webs, with insulation placed on the exterior of the face sheet. The insulation extends across the face sheet and covers connectors between adjacent panels, helping eliminate thermal shorts when the panels are assembled into a wall or roof.
Career Highlights
Carmody’s documented patent contribution focuses on combining structural support with insulation in a building-panel system. The design addresses both the load-bearing function of roof panels and the reduction of heat transfer at panel connections.
Collaborations
Carmody is associated with the Regents of the University of Minnesota. His listed coworkers include Jane Holloway Davidson and Louise Goldberg.
Conclusion
John Carmody’s “Self-supporting roof panel” patent presents an integrated approach to roof construction, combining structural support and insulation to address thermal shorts between adjacent panels.
