Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of building construction technology, and in particular to a multifunctional waterproof chassis. Prior Technology
[0002] In the construction industry, especially in spaces requiring drainage such as bathrooms, toilets, and kitchens, the design and construction of waterproofing structures have always been crucial factors affecting project quality and construction costs. Traditional drainage designs often employ off-floor drainage, where drainage pipes pass through the floor slab and connect to the drainage system below. However, this design method has several problems, such as high construction complexity, significant damage to the floor slab, and potential impact on structural safety. Furthermore, the construction process for off-floor drainage typically requires multiple steps, including floor slab drilling, pipe installation, waterproofing layer application, and reinforcement. This not only increases construction time but also raises labor costs and construction risks. Due to the current shortage of human resources in the construction market, the high reliance on manual labor in waterproofing projects further drives up the overall cost of construction.
[0003] Besides drainage design issues, traditional waterproofing projects also have many drawbacks. For example, traditional waterproofing construction often uses cement mortar or waterproof coatings. While these materials provide a certain degree of waterproofing, their durability and crack resistance are often insufficient. After long-term use, cracks may appear in the ground due to structural deformation or material aging, causing the waterproofing layer to fail and leading to leaks. Furthermore, traditional waterproofing construction requires waiting for multiple layers of materials to dry and cure, resulting in a long overall construction period. The process is also easily affected by weather conditions, leading to inconsistent quality. In addition, traditional waterproofing projects typically require a large number of workers, from applying the basic waterproofing layer and laying floor tiles to grouting. The cumbersome procedures not only increase construction costs but also make it difficult to effectively control the quality of the project.
[0004] Advances in modern building technology have led to higher demands for waterproofing construction. With continuous optimization of construction methods, the market demand for waterproofing technologies that offer fast construction speed, stable quality, and effective cost reduction is increasing. Modern construction trends favor standardized and modular construction to reduce on-site work time and improve project efficiency. Furthermore, due to increased environmental awareness, the market is placing greater emphasis on low-pollution and low-energy-consumption construction methods. Therefore, the construction industry urgently needs a construction solution that simplifies the construction process, shortens the construction period, reduces reliance on manpower, and simultaneously provides excellent waterproofing performance to meet the dual requirements of efficiency and quality in modern construction.

[0019] Referring to Figure 1, a multifunctional waterproof chassis 100 proposed in this invention is characterized by comprising: a main body plate 10, including a substrate 11, a honeycomb aluminum channel 12 disposed on the substrate 11, a filling layer 13 filling the gaps inside the honeycomb aluminum channel 12, and a surface structure layer 14 disposed on the honeycomb aluminum channel 12; a decorative layer 20 fixed to the surface structure layer 14 by an adhesive; and a side structure 30 surrounding the periphery of the main body plate 10 and the decorative layer 20. The side structure 30 has a side plate 31 and a bottom plate 32 adjacent to the side plate 31. The height of the side plate 31 is higher than the height of the decorative layer 20, and the height of the bottom plate 32 is lower than the height of the decorative layer 20. The bottom plate 32 forms a closed groove surrounding the periphery of the main body plate 10, which can serve as a water guide, making it more suitable for use as bathroom flooring, kitchen flooring, etc.
[0020] Furthermore, it can be applied to various scenarios requiring high strength, waterproofing, and pressure resistance, such as outdoor balconies, terraces, parking lots, and areas around swimming pools. Additionally, this chassis structure is suitable for industrial applications, such as cooling equipment bases, ship decks, laboratory floors, and medical environments, ensuring stability and durability even in humid, high-load, and corrosive environments.
[0021] The combination of the honeycomb aluminum channel 12 and the filling layer 13 effectively enhances the overall structural compressive strength and reduces the risk of deformation and cracking. The surface structure layer 14 further improves wear resistance, water resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance, making it suitable for long-term use in environments with low maintenance requirements. The finishing layer 20 can be made of different materials, such as ceramic tiles, stone, or other decorative layers, to meet the aesthetic and functional needs of different locations.
[0022] The surface structure layer 14 comprises fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP), which is laid on the honeycomb aluminum channel 12 and tightly bonded to the finishing layer 20. FRP possesses excellent mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and weather resistance, enabling the chassis to resist moisture, chemical corrosion, and physical wear during long-term use. Furthermore, FRP is lightweight and highly rigid, effectively improving the overall structural stability while reducing weight, making it suitable for applications with high load-bearing requirements, such as public facilities, outdoor buildings, or industrial equipment platforms.
[0023] The finishing layer 20 consists of a plurality of ceramic tiles arranged at intervals, with grout filling the gaps 21 between them. The tile material can be selected according to actual needs, such as ceramic tiles, quartz tiles, or natural stone, to provide different aesthetic effects and wear resistance. The grout in the gaps 21 can be a material with good waterproof and weather-resistant properties, such as epoxy grout or silicone grout, to ensure a good seal in humid environments, preventing moisture from penetrating into the chassis and thus extending the overall structure's lifespan. Furthermore, this interval arrangement design can be adjusted according to different needs, such as increasing drainage or reducing the impact of thermal expansion, improving adaptability and durability.
[0024] The filling layer 13 comprises a polyurethane material that fills the gaps inside the honeycomb aluminum channel 12 and is fixedly bonded to the inner wall of the honeycomb aluminum channel 12 to form a fixed structure. The polyurethane material has excellent water resistance, heat resistance, and shock absorption properties, effectively improving the overall stability and structural strength of the chassis. Furthermore, different densities and rigidities of the polyurethane material can be selected according to application requirements to achieve optimal load-bearing and waterproofing effects. For example, high-density polyurethane can improve pressure resistance, making it suitable for high-load environments such as machinery bases or industrial floors, while low-density polyurethane can improve lightweight characteristics, making it suitable for mobile equipment or temporary building structures. Because the filling layer 13 is fixedly bonded to the inner wall of the honeycomb aluminum channel 12, it effectively prevents water vapor penetration and material delamination within the structure, ensuring long-term durability and safety.
[0025] Please refer to Figures 2 and 3, which are cutaway and combined cross-sectional diagrams of the side structure 30 and the main body plate 10 of the multifunctional waterproof chassis 100 proposed in this invention. The main body plate 10 has a notch 15, and the base plate 32 has an insert 321 for embedding into the notch 15. This design ensures a stable structural connection between the base plate 32 and the main body plate 10, enhancing overall strength and durability. The precise fit between the insert 321 and the notch 15 reduces deformation caused by thermal expansion and contraction or external stress, improving the stability of the waterproof chassis. Furthermore, this embedding design optimizes the installation process, ensuring simple and robust assembly, making it suitable for applications requiring rapid installation and maintenance, such as industrial floors, outdoor facilities, or high-load-bearing areas.
[0026] Furthermore, the side structure 30 has a grounding portion 33, which is joined to the substrate 11. In this embodiment, the joining method is welding, and the welding point 331 is shown in the figure. The grounding portion 33 can improve the overall structural strength of the chassis and ensure the stability between the side structure 30 and the substrate 11. Through welding, the welding point 331 can provide a high-strength fixing effect, preventing the side structure from loosening or shifting due to external forces. In addition, the grounding portion 33 can further enhance the waterproof performance, preventing moisture from seeping into the interior of the main body plate along the side, ensuring the long-term stability of the chassis. For applications requiring impact resistance and load-bearing capacity, such as parking lots, industrial workshops, or high-humidity environments, this welding fixing method can effectively improve overall durability and safety.
[0027] Furthermore, the filler layer 13 extends between the base plate 32 and the grounding portion 33. This allows the filler layer 13 to further enhance the overall sealing and structural strength of the chassis. The filler layer 13, extending between the base plate 32 and the grounding portion 33, effectively fills potential gaps, preventing moisture or foreign matter from entering the chassis. In addition, the filler layer 13 (such as polyurethane or other elastic filler materials) can absorb some external impacts and vibrations, reducing the impact on the structure and improving durability and stability. This characteristic is particularly suitable for humid environments or high-frequency use areas, such as around swimming pools, bathrooms, outdoor balconies, or industrial equipment platforms, to ensure waterproof sealing and structural integrity during long-term use.
[0028] Please refer to Figure 4, which is a perspective view of a multifunctional waterproof chassis 100 proposed in this invention. The main body plate 10 has at least one pre-drilled hole 60. The design of this pre-drilled hole 60 allows the chassis to be functionally expanded and customized according to different application needs, such as installing additional fixing devices, drainage systems, or wiring conduits. The position and size of the pre-drilled hole 60 can be adjusted according to the usage environment to ensure optimal structural strength and installation convenience. For example, in scenarios requiring drainage, the pre-drilled hole 60 can serve as a drainage hole, ensuring rapid water drainage and preventing water accumulation from affecting the durability and stability of the chassis. In smart building or industrial applications, the pre-drilled hole 60 can also be used for wiring installations, such as cables, sensors, or other electronic devices, providing more flexible configuration options. Furthermore, in applications with detachable or modular structures, the pre-drilled hole 60 can be used to connect different modules or fix additional components, improving the convenience of installation and maintenance. Furthermore, its configuration can be changed according to needs, such as the drain hole 61 shown in Figure 4, or the drain pipe 62 to receive water discharged from, for example, a handwashing sink (not shown).
[0029] Furthermore, the honeycomb aluminum channel 12 incorporates reinforcing ribs 16 to provide additional structural strength and enhance the chassis's pressure resistance. The reinforcing ribs 16 further improve the structural rigidity of the honeycomb aluminum channel 12, enabling the chassis to withstand greater loads and pressures, making it particularly suitable for environments requiring high strength, such as industrial floors, machinery platforms, and large building support bases. The reinforcing ribs 16 effectively disperse stress, reducing localized deformation and stress concentration, thereby improving the chassis's resistance to compression, bending, and impact. Additionally, when the chassis is used in outdoor environments or areas with significant temperature variations, the reinforcing ribs 16 reduce structural fatigue caused by thermal expansion and contraction, extending its service life. When combined with a filling layer 13 (such as polyurethane or other high-strength filling materials), the overall structural rigidity and durability are further enhanced, ensuring the waterproof chassis maintains excellent performance and stability in various environments.
[0030] It should be noted that, as shown in Figure 1, an elastic waterproof layer 40 is provided between the main body plate 10 and the side structure 30. The elastic waterproof layer 40 is made of silicone or thermoplastic elastomer TPE to improve the waterproof sealing performance of the chassis and reduce the impact of structural stress.
[0031] The design of the elastic waterproof layer 40 effectively fills the gap between the main body panel 10 and the side structure 30, preventing moisture from penetrating into the chassis and thus improving the overall waterproof performance. Both silicone and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) possess excellent elasticity and weather resistance, maintaining stable sealing performance over long-term use and adapting to different temperature and environmental changes. For example, in outdoor applications, the elastic waterproof layer 40 resists the effects of rain, moisture, and ultraviolet radiation, ensuring that the internal structure of the chassis is not corroded by moisture. In indoor applications, such as bathrooms, kitchens, or areas around swimming pools, this waterproof layer prevents moisture from penetrating to the substrate, reducing the risk of mold or structural damage caused by dampness.
[0032] Furthermore, the elastic waterproof layer 40 can buffer structural stress and reduce material deformation and cracking caused by external forces or thermal expansion and contraction. This is especially important in high-load or frequently vibrating environments, such as industrial equipment bases, parking lot floors, or ship decks. When the chassis is subjected to external impacts or mechanical vibrations, the elastic waterproof layer 40 can absorb some energy, reducing direct damage to the main body plate 10 and side structures 30, thereby improving the chassis's durability and structural stability.
[0033] For even greater sealing, the resilient waterproof layer 40 can be further combined with other waterproofing techniques (such as sealants, welded seals, or multi-layered structural designs) to provide a more comprehensive waterproofing and stress-resistant solution, ensuring that the chassis maintains good performance and service life in harsh environments.
[0034] Accordingly, the multifunctional waterproof chassis 100 proposed in this invention has the following advantages when applied to current building structures:
[0035] 1. Rapid assembly: The chassis adopts a modular design, and the components can be precisely fitted together, eliminating the need for complex on-site processing or secondary treatment, thus greatly reducing construction time.
[0036] 2. Short construction period: The overall structure is prefabricated, the installation process is simple and does not rely on the drying and curing time of traditional waterproof coatings, so construction can be completed in a short time, improving construction efficiency.
[0037] 3. Low cost: Through standardized production and rapid assembly, labor costs and material waste are reduced, lowering overall construction and maintenance costs, making it suitable for large-scale application scenarios.
[0038] 4. Same-floor drainage: The structural design supports a same-floor drainage system, eliminating the need to raise the floor level or set a drainage slope. This avoids the increased construction difficulty and cost caused by the complexity of drainage systems in traditional waterproofing projects, improves drainage efficiency, and ensures the flatness and comfort of the usable space.
