[0027] In order to make the object and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be specifically described below in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is only used to describe one or several specific implementation manners of the present invention, and does not strictly limit the scope of protection of the specific claims of the present invention.

[0028] As Figure 1 and 2As shown in the figure, a unitized glass curtain wall using BIM modeling includes a unit curtain wall frame 1 and a glass panel 2. The glass panel 2 is clamped in the middle of the unit curtain wall frame 1. A face frame 3 is detachably arranged on one side of the unit curtain wall frame 1. Installation cavities 11 are provided at the four corners of the unit curtain wall frame 1. Connecting components 4 for fixing the face frame 3 on one side of the unit curtain wall frame 1 are rotatably connected inside the installation cavities 11. Docking components 5 are provided at the four corners of the face frame 3. One ends of the four connecting components 4 are respectively clamped and connected inside the four docking components 5. A positioning component 6 is arranged inside the docking component 5. The positioning component 6 is inserted into the corresponding connecting component 4 to limit the rotation of the connecting component 4. Stabilizing components 7 for clamping the face frame 3 are arranged on both sides of the unit curtain wall frame 1.

[0029] When designing this unit curtain wall frame, first perform three-dimensional laser scanning on the completed building main structure to obtain on-site structural point cloud model data. Process and analyze the obtained on-site structural point cloud model data. Use BIM software to reverse model the on-site structure based on the point cloud model data. Determine the shape of the unit curtain wall frame according to the on-site building point cloud model. Generate the dimensional data of the unit curtain wall based on the BIM model of the unit curtain wall. Import the BIM model data of the unit curtain wall into a tablet computer. Use a setting-out robot to perform on-site intelligent setting-out when installing the unit curtain wall frame 1 to complete the installation positioning. Install the unit curtain wall frame 1 on-site according to the setting-out. Then install the glass panel 2 and the face frame 3 in sequence. After the overall installation of the curtain wall is completed, use a three-dimensional scanner to scan the curtain wall, compare and analyze the scanned data with the BIM model data, and adjust the parts that exceed the installation deviation range. By installing this unit curtain wall through BIM modeling, the installation accuracy can be improved. During use, when the glass panel 2 is broken, first disassemble the face frame 3, then remove the broken glass panel 2, replace it with a new glass panel 2, and then install the face frame 3.

[0030] As Figure 2 and 3 As shown in the figure, drainage grooves 12 are provided at the bottom end of the unit curtain wall frame 1 and are equally spaced along the length direction of the unit curtain wall frame 1. Drainage holes 33 are provided at the bottom end of the face frame 3 and are equally spaced along the length direction of the face frame 3. A number of drainage grooves 12 and a number of drainage holes 33 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence.

[0031] According to the above structure, during use, the drainage grooves 12 are used to drain the rainwater that seeps into the gap between the face frame 3 and the glass panel 2, preventing rainwater from seeping in.

[0032] As Figures 4 - 8As shown in the figure, the connecting component 4 includes a round rod 41 passing through the placement cavity 11. One end of the round rod 41 is rotatably connected with an end head 42 through a bearing. One side of the end head 42 is fixedly connected with a rubber ring 43. One end of the outer wall of the round rod 41 is fixedly connected with an arc wedge-shaped block 44. The other end of the round rod 41 is provided with an internal hexagonal groove. The docking component 5 includes a through hole 51 opened at the corner of the face frame 3. A stepped groove 52 is opened at the top of the through hole 51. A clamping groove 53 equally spaced around the axis of the through hole 51 is opened on the side wall of the stepped groove 52. A clamping block 54 engaged with the arc wedge-shaped block 44 is fixedly connected inside the through hole 51. The clamping block 54 is semicircular, and the top end of the clamping block 54 is two continuous wedge-shaped surfaces 55. The positioning component 6 includes a round plate 61. One side of the round plate 61 is fixedly connected with a hexagonal column 62 inserted into the internal hexagonal groove at the end of the round rod 41. A plurality of convex blocks 65 matched with the clamping grooves 53 are integrally connected to the side wall of the round plate 61.

[0033] According to the above structure, when installing the face frame 3, align the four through holes 51 with the ends of the four round rods 41 respectively, so that the ends of the round rods 41 and the arc wedge-shaped blocks 44 pass through the gap between the clamping block 54 and the inner wall of the through hole 51. Then rotate the round rod 41 with a hexagon screwdriver. After the round rod 41 rotates, it drives the arc wedge-shaped block 44 to rotate. The bottom end surface of the arc wedge-shaped block 44 slides over one of the wedge-shaped surfaces 55 and fits with the other wedge-shaped surface 55. When the arc wedge-shaped block 44 rotates, it can squeeze the face frame 3 towards the side close to the unit curtain wall frame 1, so that the connection between the unit curtain wall frame 1 and the face frame 3 is tighter. After the bottom end surface of the arc wedge-shaped block 44 fits with the other wedge-shaped surface 55, the arc wedge-shaped block 44 stops rotating, and the installation of one corner of the face frame 3 is completed. Then install the other three corners in turn. After the installation of all four corners is completed, install the positioning component 6 inside the docking component 5. When installing the positioning component 6, insert the hexagonal column 62 into the internal hexagonal groove at the end of the round rod 41, and the convex blocks 65 are snapped into the corresponding clamping grooves 53. The installation of the positioning component 6 can prevent the round rod 41 from rotating, resulting in the separation of the connecting component 4 and the docking component 5 and the loosening of the corners of the face frame 3. When disassembling, pull out the positioning component 6, and rotate the round rod 41 with a hexagon screwdriver to rotate the arc wedge-shaped block 44 to the gap between the inner wall of the through hole 51 and the clamping block 54, then the connecting component 4 and the docking component 5 can be separated, which is convenient for disassembling the face frame 3 and further facilitating the replacement of the glass plate 2.

[0034] As Figure 4 shown, a groove 63 is opened in the middle of the round plate 61. A partition 64 is fixedly connected to the middle of the groove 63. A round hole is opened in the middle of the partition 64.

[0035] According to the above structure, when removing the positioning component 6, hook the round hole in the middle of the partition 64 with a hook, and pull out the positioning component 6 from the inside of the stepped groove 52.

[0036] As Figure 3 and9 As shown in 9 , the stabilizing member 7 includes a square shell 71 fixedly connected to the middle of one side of the unit curtain wall frame 1. An activity plate 72 is movably connected inside the square shell 71. A strip-shaped pin body 73 is fixedly connected to one side of the activity plate 72. On the other side of the activity plate 72, springs 74 are fixedly connected at equal intervals along the length direction of the activity plate 72. One end of each spring 74 is fixedly connected to one end of the inner wall of the square shell 71. Installation grooves 31 for placing the square shell 71 are symmetrically formed in the middle of one side of the face frame 3. A through groove 32 for engaging with the strip-shaped pin body 73 is formed on one side of the installation groove 31.

[0037] According to the above structure, during installation, the strip-shaped pin body 73 is squeezed inward to make it contract. When the face frame 3 is installed in place, the strip-shaped pin body 73 pops out and engages inside the through groove 32 to stabilize the side wall of the face frame 3, improving the stability of the installation of the face frame 3.

[0038] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: When installing the face frame 3, the strip-shaped pin body 73 is squeezed inward during installation to make it contract. The four through holes 51 are respectively aligned with the ends of the four round rods 41, so that the ends of the round rods 41 and the arc-shaped wedge blocks 44 pass through the gap between the clamping blocks 54 and the inner wall of the through holes 51. When the face frame 3 is installed in place, the strip-shaped pin body 73 pops out and engages inside the through groove 32 to stabilize the side wall of the face frame 3, improving the stability of the installation of the face frame 3. Then, the round rod 41 is rotated by a hexagon screwdriver. After the round rod 41 rotates, it drives the arc-shaped wedge block 44 to rotate. The bottom end surface of the arc-shaped wedge block 44 slides over one of the wedge surfaces 55 and fits with the other wedge surface 55. When the arc-shaped wedge block 44 rotates, it can squeeze the face frame 3 toward the side close to the unit curtain wall frame 1, so that the unit curtain wall frame 1 and the face frame 3 are connected more tightly. After the bottom end surface of the arc-shaped wedge block 44 fits with the other wedge surface 55, the arc-shaped wedge block 44 stops rotating, and the installation of one corner of the face frame 3 is completed. Then, the other three corners are installed in sequence. After the installation of all four corners is completed, the positioning member 6 is installed inside the docking member 5. When installing the positioning member 6, the hexagonal column 62 is inserted into the inner hexagonal groove at the end of the round rod 41, and the convex block 65 is engaged inside the corresponding card slot 53. The installation of the positioning member 6 can prevent the round rod 41 from rotating, resulting in the separation of the connecting member 4 and the docking member 5 and the loosening of the corners of the face frame 3. During disassembly, the positioning member 6 is pulled out, and the round rod 41 is rotated by a hexagon screwdriver to rotate the arc-shaped wedge block 44 to the gap between the inner wall of the through hole 51 and the clamping block 54, so that the connecting member 4 and the docking member 5 can be separated. Then, the strip-shaped pin body 73 is squeezed inward to make it retract, and the face frame 3 can be removed from one side of the unit curtain wall frame 1. After the face frame 3 is removed, the glass plate 2 is exposed, which is convenient for replacing the broken glass plate 2.

[0039] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention. The structures, devices, and operation methods not specifically described and explained in the present invention are implemented according to the conventional means in the art without special explanation and limitation.
