[0002] A curtain wall is the exterior cladding of a building, a lightweight wall structure commonly used in modern high-rise buildings for decorative purposes. A curtain wall consists of panels and a supporting structure, with the panels and the supporting structure connected by means such as... Figure 1 The spring pin connection is shown. Currently, it is necessary to use, as shown... Figure 2 The clamps shown are used to install spring pins, but the clamping distance of the clamps is easily limited, resulting in reduced installation efficiency. Using adhesive for fixing leads to higher production costs, and adhesive overflow can affect the spring pin's telescopic performance. Therefore, the existing technology suffers from low installation efficiency for spring pins. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides an installation clamp that adjusts the distance between the clamping ends by sliding a wedge block disposed between two clamping blocks, thereby solving the problem of low installation efficiency of spring pins in the prior art.

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, according to one aspect of this application, the present invention provides a mounting clip, which includes a mounting base and a wedge block, two clamping blocks, and a transmission assembly disposed within the mounting base; the wedge block is slidably connected between the two clamping blocks to adjust the distance between the clamping ends of the two clamping blocks, and the transmission assembly is connected to the wedge block to drive the wedge block to reciprocate.

[0005] In some embodiments, the transmission assembly includes a rack and a gear, the rack being disposed on a wedge block and the gear being hinged between two clamping blocks and meshing with the rack.

[0006] In some embodiments, the mounting clip further includes a rotating handle, one end of which is connected to a gear, and the other end of which passes through the mounting base and is slidably connected to the mounting base.

[0007] In some embodiments, the mounting base includes a first mounting plate, a second mounting plate, and a third mounting plate, wherein the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate are arranged in parallel, and the third mounting plate is located between the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate.

[0008] In some embodiments, the third mounting plate is provided with a rotating groove along its height direction, and the rotating handle is slidably connected to the rotating groove.

[0009] In some embodiments, the wedge block includes a sliding portion and two adjusting portions connected to both ends of the sliding portion; the radial cross-section of the sliding portion is rectangular, and the radial cross-sections of the two adjusting portions are trapezoidal, with the smaller bases of the two trapezoids facing each other.

[0010] In some embodiments, the opposing surfaces of the two clamping blocks are configured to cooperate with the wedge block, the two opposing surfaces of the two clamping blocks are curved, and each clamping block is in line contact with the mounting base.

[0011] In some embodiments, at least one end of the two clamping blocks is a clamping end.

[0012] In some embodiments, the mounting clip further includes a fixing bolt that passes through the mounting base, the clamping block, and the wedge block, and the fixing bolt is slidably connected to the wedge block through a sliding groove on the wedge block.

[0013] According to another aspect of this application, the present invention provides a curtain wall installation device, which includes the above-described mounting clip.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the mounting clip provided by the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0015] The mounting clamp includes a mounting base for fixing the wedge block, two clamping blocks, and a transmission assembly. The mounting base enables coordinated operation between the components. The clamping ends of the two clamping blocks are used to clamp the objects to be clamped under the adjustment of the wedge block. The wedge block is positioned between the two clamping blocks. As the wedge block slides between the two clamping blocks, it further changes the distance between the clamping ends of the two clamping blocks, thereby ensuring that the two clamping blocks have a clamping function. The transmission assembly is connected to the wedge block and is used to drive the wedge block to achieve reciprocating motion.

[0016] To better explain the effects of this invention, let's assume that the mounting clip of this invention is used to install a spring pin, which is mounted on a support structure. During use, the wedge block is first slid towards the bottom or top to ensure a large distance between the clamping ends of the two clamping blocks. Simultaneously, the clamping ends of the two clamping blocks are placed on both sides of the mounting portion of the spring pin. Further, the wedge block is moved via a transmission assembly, thereby reducing the distance between the clamping ends of the two clamping blocks and compressing the mounting portion of the spring pin. The mounting clip provided by this embodiment of the invention solves the problem of low installation efficiency of spring pins due to the small internal installation space of the support structure in the prior art.

[0017] In another aspect, the curtain wall installation device provided by the present invention is designed based on the above-mentioned mounting clip, and its beneficial effects are the same as those of the above-mentioned mounting clip, which will not be repeated here.

[0018] The above description is merely an overview of the technical solution of the present invention. In order to better understand the technical means of the present invention and to implement it in accordance with the contents of the specification, the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the intended purpose, the specific embodiments, structures, features, and effects according to the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. In the following description, different "an embodiment" or "an embodiment" do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, specific features, structures, or characteristics in one or more embodiments can be combined in any suitable form.

[0031] In the description of this invention, it should be clearly stated that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence; the terms "vertical," "lateral," "longitudinal," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," "down," "horizontal," etc., indicate orientation or positional relationships based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are merely for the convenience of describing this invention, and do not mean that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or position, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this invention.

[0032] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown in the schematic diagram of the clamp in the prior art, the profile has an internal mounting chamber, and a spring pin mounting part is provided on the upper part of the chamber. The radial cross-section of the spring pin mounting part is an arc-shaped structure. The mounting part is used to install, for example, Figure 1 The schematic diagram of a spring pin in the prior art shows a spring pin with different diameters. Further, the spring pin is clamped into the mounting part by pressing it with clamps 100, thus completing the installation. However, the clamping distance of the clamps 100 within the cavity is limited, resulting in low installation efficiency of the spring pin. Based on this, this invention provides a mounting bracket.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] This invention provides a mounting clip, such as... Figures 3 to 8As shown, the mounting clamp includes a mounting base 200 and a wedge block 300, two clamping blocks 400, and a transmission assembly 500 disposed within the mounting base 200; the wedge block 300 is slidably connected between the two clamping blocks 400 to adjust the distance between the clamping ends 410 of the two clamping blocks 400, and the transmission assembly 500 is connected to the wedge block 300 to drive the wedge block 300 to reciprocate.

[0036] Specifically, the mounting clamp includes a mounting base 200 for fixing the wedge block 300, two clamping blocks 400, and a transmission assembly 500. The mounting base 200 enables coordinated operation between the components. The clamping ends 410 of the two clamping blocks 400 are used to clamp the objects to be clamped under the adjustment of the wedge block 300. The wedge block 300 is positioned between the two clamping blocks 400. During the sliding process between the two clamping blocks 400, the wedge block 300 further changes the distance between the clamping ends 410 of the two clamping blocks 400, thereby ensuring that the two clamping blocks 400 have a clamping function. The transmission assembly 500 is connected to the wedge block 300 and is used to drive the wedge block 300 to achieve reciprocating motion. It should be noted that the mounting bracket is used to install spring pins on support structures with limited internal space. In addition, the mounting clamp can also install other pins or similar columnar structures on other structures with limited internal space.

[0037] To better explain the usage process of this invention, it is assumed that the mounting clip of this embodiment is used to install a spring pin, which is mounted on a support structure. During use, the wedge block 300 is first slid towards the bottom or top to ensure a large distance between the clamping ends 410 of the two clamping blocks 400. Simultaneously, the clamping ends 410 of the two clamping blocks 400 are placed on both sides of the mounting portion of the spring pin. Further, the wedge block 300 is moved via the transmission assembly 500, thereby reducing the distance between the clamping ends 410 of the two clamping blocks 400 and compressing the mounting portion of the spring pin. The mounting clip provided by this embodiment solves the problem of low installation efficiency of spring pins due to the small internal installation space of the support structure in the prior art.

[0038] In a specific embodiment, the transmission assembly 500 includes a rack 520 and a gear 510. The rack 520 is disposed on the wedge block 300, and the gear 510 is hinged between two clamping blocks 400 and meshes with the rack 520.

[0039] Specifically, the transmission assembly 500 is used to move the wedge block 300, thereby adjusting the distance between the clamping ends 410 of the two clamping blocks 400. For example... Figure 5As shown in the schematic diagram of the transmission assembly of the mounting clamp provided in this embodiment of the invention, the movement of the wedge block 300 is further controlled by controlling the meshing and rotation of the gear 510 and the rack 520. Compared with the clamp 100 in the prior art, the transmission assembly 500 has a relatively smaller usable space, making it more convenient to install spring pins and similar structures. It should be noted that the gear 510 can be controlled to rotate by a motor, and the gear 510 can also be rotated by the rotating handle 600 in the following embodiment.

[0040] In a specific embodiment, such as Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the mounting clip also includes a rotating handle 600, one end of which is connected to the gear 510, and the other end of which passes through the mounting base 200 and is slidably connected to the mounting base 200.

[0041] Specifically, rotating the handle 600 drives the gear 510 to rotate. For example... Figure 5 As shown in the schematic diagram of the transmission assembly of the mounting clip provided in this embodiment of the invention, during the placement of the mounting clip, the rotating handle 600 is first rotated downwards. The rotating handle 600 drives the gear 510 to rotate clockwise. The gear 510 meshes with the rack 520 and drives the wedge block 300 to move away from the mounting part. At this time, as... Figure 3 The internal structure diagram of the mounting clip in the non-working state provided in this embodiment of the invention is shown. The distance between the clamping ends 410 of the two clamping blocks 400 is d1. The two clamping ends 410 are respectively placed on both sides of the mounting part. During the clamping process of the mounting clip, as... Figure 5 As shown in the schematic diagram of the transmission assembly of the mounting clip provided in this embodiment of the invention, firstly, the rotating handle 600 is rotated upwards. The rotating handle 600 drives the gear 510 to rotate counterclockwise. The gear 510 meshes with the rack 520, and drives the wedge block 300 to move towards the mounting part. At this time, as... Figure 4 The internal structure diagram of the mounting clip in the working state provided in the embodiment of the present invention is shown. The distance between the clamping ends 410 of the two clamping blocks 400 is d2, d2 < d1. The clamping ends 410 squeeze the two sides of the mounting part, thereby snapping the spring pin or a structure similar to the spring pin onto the mounting part.

[0042] Compared to the clamp 100 in the prior art, the installation clamp provided in this embodiment of the invention not only occupies less space during use, but also makes it easier for construction personnel to apply force, which further improves the installation efficiency of spring pins or similar structures.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 6As shown in the schematic diagram of the mounting base of the mounting clip provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the mounting base 200 includes a first mounting plate 210, a second mounting plate 220 and a third mounting plate 230. The first mounting plate 210 and the second mounting plate 220 are arranged in parallel, and the third mounting plate 230 is located between the first mounting plate 210 and the second mounting plate 220.

[0044] Specifically, the mounting base 200 has a U-shaped structure. The mounting base 200 includes a first mounting plate 210, a second mounting plate 220, and a third mounting plate 230 located between the first mounting plate 210 and the second mounting plate 220. The first mounting plate 210, the second mounting plate 220, and the third mounting plate 230 are connected to form a U-shaped structure, and a semi-closed cavity is formed inside the U-shaped structure. The cavity is used to install the wedge block 300, two clamping blocks 400, and the transmission assembly 500, so that the components work in coordination to ensure the basic clamping function of the mounting clamp.

[0045] During use, refer to Figure 7 The assembly diagram of the mounting base and support structure of the mounting clip provided in this embodiment of the invention shows that the first mounting plate 210 and the second mounting plate 220 are first placed vertically, the third mounting plate 230 is pushed, and the mounting part is snapped between the two clamping ends 410. Further, the mounting part is pressed by rotating the rotating handle 600. The spring pin can be located inside the cavity or outside the cavity.

[0046] Furthermore, the third mounting plate 230 is provided with a rotating groove 231 along its height direction, and the rotating handle 600 is slidably connected to the rotating groove 231.

[0047] Specifically, the rotating groove 231 is arranged along the sliding direction of the wedge block 300, that is, along the height direction of the third mounting plate 230. The rotating groove 231 guides the rotating handle 600 during rotation. One end of the rotating handle 600 is connected to the gear 510 inside the cavity, and the other end of the rotating handle 600 extends out of the cavity through the rotating groove 231. During use, the mounting part can be squeezed by rotating the rotating handle 600 outside the cavity. Compared with the clamp 100 in the prior art, the mounting bracket provided by this embodiment has a relatively higher installation efficiency and a relatively more stable installation.

[0048] Furthermore, the third mounting plate 230 is provided with mounting holes 232 near the clamping end 410.

[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 7As shown in the assembly diagram of the mounting base and support structure of the mounting clip provided in this embodiment of the invention, the third mounting plate 230 has a mounting hole 232 near its bottom. During the clamping process, one end of the spring pin is engaged inside the mounting part, and the other end of the spring pin passes through the mounting hole 232 and is located outside the cavity. Furthermore, the center of the mounting hole 232 is located on the axis of the rotating groove 231. The axis of the rotating groove 231 and the center of the mounting hole 232 are collinear, which allows for the positioning of the two clamping ends 410, making the clamping of the mounting part by the two clamping ends 410 more accurate and further improving the installation efficiency of the mounting clip.

[0050] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the wedge block 300 includes a sliding part 310 and two adjusting parts 320 connected to both ends of the sliding part 310; the radial cross section of the sliding part 310 is rectangular, and the radial cross section of the two adjusting parts 320 is trapezoidal, with the smaller base of the two trapezoids facing each other.

[0051] Specifically, it should be noted that "the smaller bases of the two trapezoids facing each other" refers to the smaller base of the top adjustment section being positioned opposite the smaller base of the bottom adjustment section, such as... Figure 3 The internal structure diagram of the mounting clip in its non-working state provided in this embodiment of the invention is shown. The radial cross-section of the sliding part 310 of the wedge block 300 is a rectangular structure, and the two sides of the rectangular structure abut against the two clamping blocks 400 respectively, and the rectangular structure can slide between the two clamping blocks 400. The two ends of the wedge block 300 are trapezoidal structures, which are used to adjust the distance between the clamping ends 410 during movement. Further, during the upward movement of the trapezoidal structure, the distance between the two clamping ends 410 is d1, at which time the clamping ends 410 do not exert pressure on the mounting part; during the downward movement of the trapezoidal structure, the distance between the two clamping ends 410 decreases to d2, d2 < d1, at which time the clamping ends 410 exert pressure on the mounting part.

[0052] In a specific embodiment, the opposing surfaces of the two clamping blocks 400 are configured to cooperate with the wedge block 300, the two opposing surfaces of the two clamping blocks 400 are curved, and each clamping block 400 is in line contact with the mounting base 200.

[0053] Specifically, the opposite surfaces of each clamping block 400 are curved structures. When the wedge block 300 slides between the two clamping blocks 400, the curved structure makes line contact with the mounting base 200. The two clamping blocks 400 rotate relative to each other on the mounting base 200 through their respective curved structures, thereby adjusting the distance between the clamping ends 410.

[0054] In a specific embodiment, at least one end of the two clamping blocks 400 is a clamping end 410.

[0055] Specifically, such as Figure 3 The internal structure diagram of the mounting clip in a non-working state provided in the embodiments of the present invention, and as shown below Figure 4 The internal structure diagram of the mounting clip in the working state provided in this embodiment of the invention is shown, with the lower ends of the two clamping blocks 400 being clamping ends 410. Of course, the top ends of the two clamping blocks 400 are clamping ends 410, or both ends of the two clamping blocks 400 are clamping ends 410.

[0056] When the top ends of both clamping blocks 400 are clamping ends 410, the mounting clamp can clamp the mounting parts at the upper and lower positions in the mounting cavity. During the installation process, the mounting clamp only needs to move up and down to complete the clamping operation. It can clamp the mounting parts in two directions without removing the mounting clamp, which further improves the installation efficiency of the mounting clamp.

[0057] In a specific embodiment, the mounting clip also includes a fixing bolt 700, which passes through the mounting base 200, the clamping block 400, and the wedge block 300. The fixing bolt 700 is slidably connected to the wedge block 300 through the sliding groove 330 on the wedge block 300.

[0058] Specifically, such as Figure 8 The assembly diagram of the fixing bolt and sliding groove of the mounting clip provided in this embodiment of the invention shows that the fixing bolt 700 mounts two clamping blocks 400 and a wedge block 300 onto the mounting base 200. The wedge block 300 is provided with a sliding groove 330 along the height direction of the mounting base 200. During the movement of the wedge block 300 driven by the transmission assembly 500, the sliding groove 330 guides the wedge block 300. The two clamping blocks 400 are clearance-fitted with the fixing bolt 700, thereby allowing the clamping blocks 400 to rotate relative to the mounting base 200. This further makes it easier for the mounting clip to compress the mounting part.

[0059] Example 2

[0061] Specifically, bolts, pins, or other pin-like columnar structures are installed into the mounting groove using curtain wall installation equipment, and the mounting groove is clamped to complete the fixed installation.

[0062] In summary, it is readily understood by those skilled in the art that, without conflict, the aforementioned advantageous technical features can be freely combined and superimposed.

[0063] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention in any way. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
