Abstract
A ridge cap type roof ventilator comprising a plurality of sections aligned longitudinally with one another and hingedly interconnected along their confronting ends such that the plurality of sections may be folded or pivoted into parallel abutting contact. Once folded, several roof ventilators may be stacked with their vent parts in an overlapping, interfitted pattern to provide a stable column or stack having a minimal volume to conserve the space required to store or ship a predetermined number of the roof ventilators. The sections may be unfolded for positioning and installation on the ridge of the roof.
