Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of curtain walls, and in particular to a vertical grille for curtain walls with an adjustable windward angle and a method thereof. Background Technology

[0002] As the curtain wall of a building, it is the most aesthetically pleasing element of its exterior. In recent years, in addition to the upgrading of curtain wall materials such as glass and ceramic curtain walls, the application of curtain wall grilles has increased, resulting in more rhythmic and dynamic architectural designs. Currently, these curtain wall grilles are fixed to the main structure's keel / bracket using anchor bolts. Once installed, the angle of these vertical curtain wall grilles cannot be adjusted after the building is moved into use. However, in practical applications, it has been found that this aesthetic design and installation present certain shortcomings and safety hazards under wind loads, specifically:

[0003] (1) Stress concentration occurs in the fixing structure of the grille under extreme wind loads. Strong wind loads pose a significant threat to the safety of the curtain wall grille system, such as cracking of the bracket welds and bending of the anchor bolts.

[0004] (2) The ventilation effect inside the building structure is limited and cannot be actively adjusted. Under the condition that the vertical grille is fixed at an angle, the ventilation effect inside the building is determined by the angle of the natural wind and is in an unadjustable state. It can only be adjusted by the fresh air system.

[0005] However, most of the current patents related to curtain wall grille systems focus on improving the ease of installation by optimizing the fixing method. No methods have been found to reduce building energy consumption or improve performance through intelligent sensing control or manual adjustment of the grille angle. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the above-mentioned problems by proposing an adjustable windward angle vertical grille for curtain walls and a method thereof.

[0007] An adjustable windward angle vertical grille for curtain walls includes a grille, a bracket, a rotating clamp, a drive motor and an integrator, and a fixed clamp. The rotating clamp is fixedly connected to the grille by several anchors, and the fixed clamp is connected to the rotating clamp by a rotating bearing. The fixed clamp has several holes, and the drive motor and integrator are fixed to the middle of the bracket through the holes using chemical anchors.

[0008] Specifically, it also includes a wind pressure sensor, which is installed on the side of the grille.

[0009] Specifically, it also includes a rotating shaft with an open slot containing gears, and the two ends of the shaft extend a certain distance beyond the tail of the rotating clamp.

[0010] Specifically, the fixing clamp includes an upper fixing clamp and a lower fixing clamp. The lower fixing clamp is fixed by bolt anchors and then reinforced by welding.

[0011] Specifically, the integrator consists of a sensor and a signal processor.

[0012] A method for adjusting the windward angle of vertical grilles in a curtain wall, including installation steps and usage:

[0013] The installation steps include:

[0014] S11: Determine the installation location of the fixed bracket on the concrete / steel structure;

[0015] S12: Position and lay out the lower fixing clamp and integrator, and install the lower fixing clamp;

[0016] S13: Insert the drive motor shaft into the lower fixing plate;

[0017] S14: The grid is fixedly connected to the rotating clamp with anchor bolts, and then the wind pressure sensor is installed in the middle of both sides of the grid; the grid with the rotating clamp installed is lifted and hoisted to an appropriate height, and then the rotating shaft of the rotating clamp is inserted into the hole of the fixed clamp.

[0018] S15: Matches the signal between the remote control and the integrator's signal processor, enabling the processor to detect signal input via sensors and automatically adjust the angle of the drive motor under optimal force.

[0019] The usage steps include:

[0020] S21: At different times, according to the indoor ventilation needs, the angle of the vertical grille can be adjusted by remote control to form different angles with the wind direction to adjust the air volume;

[0021] S22: When it is necessary to increase the ventilation volume, adjust the vertical grille to the windward angle (obtuse angle); when it is necessary to reduce the ventilation volume, adjust the vertical grille to the windward angle (acute angle). Based on the above technical solution, the embodiments of the present invention can produce at least the following technical effects:

[0028] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, an adjustable windward angle vertical grille for a curtain wall includes a grille 1, a bracket 2, a rotating clamp 4, a drive motor and integrator 5, and a fixed clamp 8. The rotating clamp 4 is fixedly connected to the grille 1 by several anchor bolts 3. The fixed clamp 8 is connected to the rotating clamp 4 by a rotating bearing 7. The fixed clamp 8 has several holes. The drive motor and integrator 5 are fixed to the middle of the bracket 2 through the holes using chemical anchor bolts 6.

[0029] It also includes a rotating shaft 10, which has an open slot and a gear 11 inside the open slot. The two ends of the rotating shaft 10 extend beyond the tail of the rotating clamp 4 by a certain distance.

[0030] It also includes a wind pressure sensor 9, which is disposed on the side of the grille 1.

[0035] Anchor bolts 3 are used to fix the grille 1 to the rotating clamp 4. Then, wind pressure sensors 9 are installed in the middle of both sides of the grille 1. The grille 1 with the rotating clamp 4 installed is lifted. After being lifted to an appropriate height, the rotating shaft 10 of the rotating clamp 4 is inserted into the hole of the fixed clamp 8.

[0036] When in use: At different times, adjust the angle of the vertical grille 1 according to the indoor ventilation needs using the remote control, so that it forms different angles with the wind direction to adjust the air volume. When it is necessary to increase the ventilation volume, adjust the vertical grille 1 to the windward angle (obtuse angle) with the wind direction. When it is necessary to reduce the ventilation volume, adjust the vertical grille to the windward angle (acute angle).
