[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of building construction, and particularly relates to a vertical keel connector. Background Art

[0002] In modern interior design, in order to obtain better space utilization and visual effects, partitions are needed to divide the space. In traditional partition wall systems, most use horizontal keels and vertical keels to form a keel framework, and then a sound insulation layer, decorative panels, etc. are laid on the keel framework. However, in the traditional construction process, due to the influence of the flatness of the ceiling and the ground, there will be a certain dimensional deviation in the height difference between the ceiling and the ground, resulting in the need to continuously adjust the vertical keels according to the actual height dimensions during installation, and the installation process is relatively cumbersome.

[0003] The patent document with the application number CN114351899A provides such a quick-install partition vertical keel and its installation method, belonging to the technical field of partition wall construction. It includes a vertical keel and upper and lower fixing parts respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the vertical keel. The upper fixing part is arranged on the top plate of the building to be partitioned, and the lower fixing part is arranged on the bottom plate of the building to be partitioned. The vertical keel is limited between the top plate and the bottom plate of the building to be partitioned through the upper and lower fixing parts for installing the decorative panel of the partition wall. Through the provided upper and lower fixing parts, the vertical keel can be quickly installed; through the provided upper fixing part, the relative position in the height direction between the upper fixing part and the vertical keel can be adjusted, and the vertical keel can be adjusted and installed according to the actual distance between the top plate and the bottom plate of the building. However, the upper fixing part and the lower fixing part therein can only be used to fix the vertical keel and cannot solve the connection problem between the vertical keel and the horizontal keel. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention aims to solve the above problems and provides a vertical keel connector that can solve the installation and connection problems of vertical keels during the installation of the wall keel framework.

[0005] The technical solution for the present invention to solve the problem is to provide a vertical keel connector for connecting a vertical keel and a horizontal keel to form a keel framework. It includes a first connection part connected to the vertical keel and a second connection part connected to the horizontal keel. The first connection part is provided with a card slot, and the top wall of the vertical keel is inserted into the card slot and fixedly connected to the first connection part through a fastener.

[0006] Preferably, the first connection part includes a first plug-in block provided with the card slot. There are two first plug-in blocks, and the two first plug-in blocks are symmetrically arranged about the axis of the first connection part.

[0007] Preferably in the present invention, the first connecting portion further includes a second plugging block disposed between the two first plugging blocks, and the second plugging block abuts against the top wall.

[0008] Preferably in the present invention, the second plugging block is provided with a connecting hole, and the vertical keel is fixedly connected to the second plugging block through the connecting hole and the fastener.

[0009] Preferably in the present invention, the connecting hole is an oblong hole.

[0011] Preferably in the present invention, the top wall further includes a concave plate portion recessed toward the inside of the vertical keel relative to the flat plate portion. The flat plate portions of the two vertical keels abut against each other, so that a plugging slot is formed between the concave plate portions of the two vertical keels, and the second plugging block is inserted into the plugging slot.

[0012] Preferably in the present invention, the horizontal keel includes side plates disposed opposite to each other and forming a receiving groove, and a top plate connected to the side plates. The second connecting portion is disposed in the receiving groove and fixedly connected to the top plate.

[0013] Preferably in the present invention, the second connecting portion and the top plate are mutually adhered.

[0014] Advantages of the present invention:

[0015] 1. By designing the card slot of the first connecting portion, the installation height can be finely adjusted during the fixed installation of the vertical keel to adapt to the dimensional deviation of the distance between the ceiling and the ground, and there is no need to repeatedly adjust the height and length dimensions of the vertical keel during installation.

[0016] 2. By designing the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion, the vertical keel connecting member of the present invention can not only be used for the connection and fixation of the horizontal keel and the vertical keel, but also for the connection and fixation of two adjacent vertical keels, reducing the types of components required during the construction of the keel framework and making the installation more convenient.

Detailed implementation manners

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0025] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the horizontal keel 2 and the vertical keel 1 are perpendicularly connected to form a rectangular frame unit 9, and the adjacent vertical keels 1 of several frame units 9 are fixedly connected to form a keel frame together. Among them, a through keel 8 is also provided inside the frame unit 9 to increase the structural stability of the frame unit and prevent the frame unit 9 from deforming. Specifically, the connection between the through keel 8 and the vertical keel 1 is a prior art and will not be elaborated here. The vertical keel connector of the present invention is mainly used for the fixed connection between the horizontal keel 2 and the vertical keel 1 inside the frame unit 9 and the fixed connection between the adjacent vertical keels 1 of two adjacent frame units 9.

[0026] Specifically, as Figures 2 - 4 shown, the vertical keel connector of the present invention includes a first connecting part 3 connected to the vertical keel 1 and a second connecting part 4 connected to the horizontal keel 2. The first connecting part 3 is provided with a card slot 5, and the top wall 11 of the vertical keel 1 is inserted into the card slot 5 and fixedly connected to the first connecting part 3 through a fastener. Among them, the top wall 11 includes a flat plate part 111 inserted into the card slot 5, and the card slot 5 can accommodate two flat plate parts 111 to be inserted simultaneously, so that the vertical keel connector of the present invention can be used for both the connection and fixation between the horizontal keel 2 and the vertical keel 1 and the connection and fixation between two adjacent vertical keels 1.

[0027] In this embodiment, the horizontal keel 2 is fixedly connected to the ceiling or the ground, and both ends of the vertical keel 1 are respectively fixedly connected to the horizontal keel 2 fixed to the ceiling or the ground through the vertical keel connecting member of the present invention. Among them, the length of the vertical keel 1 is slightly less than the distance between the ceiling and the ground. By adjusting the depth of the vertical keel 1 inserted into the card slot 5, the height dimension of the installation of the vertical keel 1 can be adjusted to adapt to the deviation of the distance dimension between the ceiling and the ground, and there is no need to repeatedly adjust the length dimension of the vertical keel 1 during installation.

[0028] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the stability of the installation structure of the vertical keel 1, the first connecting portion 3 includes a first plugging block 31 provided with a card slot 5. There are two first plugging blocks 31, and the two first plugging blocks 31 are symmetrically arranged about the axis of the first connecting portion 3; a second plugging block 32 is provided between the two first plugging blocks 31. The second plugging block 32 abuts against the top wall 11, so that both sides of the top wall 11 are clamped by the first plugging blocks 31, and the middle part of the top wall is abutted and supported by the second plugging block 32. The first plugging block 31 and the second plugging block 32 interact with each other, avoiding the situation that the vertical keel 1 shakes and topples when the clearance of the card slot 5 is too large and the vertical keel 1 is inserted into the card slot 5.

[0029] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, in order to make the top walls 11 of two adjacent vertical keels 1 connecting two frame units 9 fit together, the top wall 11 further includes a concave plate portion 112 that is recessed toward the inside of the vertical keel 1 relative to the flat plate portion 111. The flat plate portions 111 of the two vertical keels 1 abut against each other, so that a plugging slot 6 is formed between the concave plate portions 112 of the two vertical keels 1. The second plugging block 32 is inserted into the plugging slot 6, and there will be no interference with the vertical keel 1 during installation.

[0030] In this embodiment, in order to further increase the stability of the connection structure, the second plugging block 32 is provided with a connection hole 321, and the vertical keel 1 is fixedly connected to the second plugging block 32 through the connection hole 321 and a fastener (not shown in the figure). Among them, the fastener can be a screw, or a bolt and a nut, etc.

[0031] In this embodiment, in order to reduce the requirement for installation accuracy and increase the adjustable range of installation connection, the connection hole 321 is an oblong hole.

[0032] In this embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, the horizontal keel 2 includes two side plates 21 that are oppositely arranged and form a receiving groove 7, and a top plate 22 connected to the side plates 21. The second connecting portion 4 is placed in the receiving groove 7 and fixedly connected to the top plate 22. Among them, the second connecting portion 4 and the top plate 22 are mutually attached and can support each other, increasing the contact area between a kind of vertical keel connecting member of the present invention and the horizontal keel 2, and making the installation structure more stable.

[0033] The installation process of a vertical keel connector of the present invention is as follows:

[0034] 1. Install vertical keel connectors at both ends of the vertical keel, that is, insert the flat part of the vertical keel into the card slot of the first plug-in block, and make the second plug-in block abut against the concave plate part of the vertical keel.

[0035] 2. Install fixed horizontal keels at designated positions on the ceiling and the ground, and insert both ends of the vertical keel with the vertical keel connectors installed into the receiving grooves of the horizontal keels.

[0036] 3. Adjust the insertion depth of the vertical keel and the first connection part so that the second connection parts of the vertical keel connectors at both ends of the vertical keel respectively abut against the top plates of the horizontal keels on the ceiling and the ground, and fixedly connect the second connection part and the horizontal keel through fasteners.

[0037] 4. Fix the first connection part and the vertical keel through fasteners to complete the installation.
