Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of smoke exhaust window technology, and in particular to a dual-drive automatic smoke exhaust window. Background Technology

[0002] Smoke exhaust windows are windows installed in building atriums or on the exterior walls of high-rise buildings for ventilation, smoke extraction, and fire-fighting linkage. Smoke exhaust windows are often installed high up in buildings, and because manual opening and closing is inconvenient, some smoke exhaust windows are now installed as automatic systems.

[0003] In related technologies, automatic smoke exhaust windows consist of a window sash, a window frame, and automatic opening devices installed on the window sash and window frame respectively; the window sash hinges are installed on the window frame, and the automatic opening device is located on the side away from the hinge connection end; the automatic opening device consists of an opener, an alarm, and control devices, and can automatically open the window sash within seconds after a fire occurs to promptly exhaust smoke.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, outward-opening smoke exhaust windows are frequently used as ventilation windows in daily life, remaining open for airflow. Dust or debris easily accumulates on the window frame, which may affect the normal opening and closing of the smoke exhaust window after a period of time. Because the smoke exhaust window is installed high up, it is inconvenient for manual maintenance. Therefore, the inventor provides a dual-drive automatic smoke exhaust window. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To prevent dust and debris from affecting the normal opening and closing of the automatic smoke exhaust window, this application provides a dual-drive automatic smoke exhaust window.

[0006] The dual-drive automatic smoke exhaust window provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A dual-drive automatic smoke exhaust window includes a window frame, a window sash, and an automatic opening device. The automatic opening device includes a pneumatic window opening assembly for opening the window sash and an electric window closing assembly for controlling the closing of the window sash.

[0008] The pneumatic window opening assembly includes a pneumatic push rod, the two ends of which are rotatably connected to the window frame and the window sash, respectively. The rotation axes at both ends of the pneumatic push rod are parallel to the rotation axis of the window sash. An air inlet one-way valve is installed on the air inlet pipe of the pneumatic push rod.

[0009] It also includes a purge assembly mounted on the window frame, the purge assembly comprising a purge pipe and a pressure check valve; the purge pipe is mounted on the window frame with its opening facing the dust accumulation point; the air inlet of the pressure check valve is connected to the exhaust port when the pneumatic push rod is compressed, and the air outlet of the pressure check valve is connected to the air inlet of the purge pipe.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, in daily use, the pneumatic window opening assembly is used to open the window sash, and the electric window closing assembly is used to close it. During the closing process, the pneumatic push rod is subjected to the pressure of the closing window sash, and the gas inside the pneumatic push rod is discharged from its own exhaust port. As the gas inside the pneumatic push rod is pressurized, the pressure increases to the point that it opens the pressure check valve, and the compressed gas inside the pneumatic push rod is rapidly ejected from the blowpipe. In this way, during the closing process, high-pressure gas blows away dust and debris that easily accumulates on the window frame, removing debris between the window frame and the window sash, and preventing the opening and closing of the window sash from being affected by debris.

[0011] Optionally, the side of the intake check valve away from the pneumatic push rod is connected to a normally closed window-opening solenoid valve; the pressure check valve is a check valve controlled by both air pressure and pressure spring, the control air pressure pipeline of the pressure check valve is connected to the air path between the window-opening solenoid valve and the intake check valve, and a normally open window-closing solenoid valve is connected in series on the control air pressure pipeline of the pressure check valve; a pressure-holding check valve to prevent gas backflow is provided between the window-closing solenoid valve and the window-opening solenoid valve.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the window-opening solenoid valve is opened, the air source simultaneously supplies air to the pneumatic push rod and the pressure check valve. After the window-opening solenoid valve is closed, the pressure-holding check valve maintains the air pressure of the control pressure check valve; the air inlet check valve maintains the lifting of the pneumatic push rod. This reduces the demand for spring pressure and avoids the potential malfunctions associated with single-spring pressure control. When the window is closed, the window-closing solenoid valve is activated, releasing the control air pressure of the pressure check valve. The reduced pressure in the pressure check valve allows the air pressure within the pneumatic push rod to easily open the pressure check valve, quickly expelling the gas and ensuring complete gas removal for full window sash closure. This also reduces the power consumption of the electric window closing assembly.

[0013] Optionally, the electric window closing assembly includes a small motor, a take-up reel, and a traction rope; the small motor is mounted on the window frame, and the take-up reel is fixed to the shaft of the small motor; the traction rope is wound around the take-up reel, with one end of the traction rope fixed to the take-up reel; the other end of the traction rope is fixed to the window sash, and the end of the traction rope is fixed to the movable end of the window sash; the number of traction ropes corresponds to the number of pneumatic push rods, and the traction rope and the pneumatic push rod are in one-to-one correspondence.

[0014] By employing the above technical solution, a small motor is used to wind a traction rope to pull the movable end of the window sash, thereby closing the window. During the closing process, the exhaust pressure of the pneumatic push rod acts as a buffer, preventing the window sash from closing at high speed. The end of the traction rope is fixed to the movable end of the window sash, using the lever principle to improve efficiency and reduce power consumption. The traction rope and the pneumatic push rod correspond one-to-one, which helps stabilize the downward pulling force of the window sash, thus ensuring the stable opening and closing of the window sash.

[0015] Optionally, the window frame is a hollow profile, and the small motor and the first wheel are disposed inside the profile of the window frame; a guide tube is fixed on the inner side wall of the window frame, and the traction rope passes through the guide tube and is connected to the window sash; a chamfer is provided at the inner hole of the guide tube near the window sash.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the motorized window closing components are installed discreetly, ensuring the overall aesthetics of the smoke exhaust window. A conduit is installed to pull the traction rope, reducing wear and tear during the rope's deployment and retraction.

[0017] Optionally, a guide wheel is also rotatably installed inside the window frame profile, and the guide wheel corresponds one-to-one with the pneumatic push rod and is set adjacent to the corresponding pneumatic push rod.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, a guide wheel is set up to guide multiple strands of traction rope on a winding wheel to the corresponding pneumatic push rod position, so as to ensure smooth winding and unwinding of the traction rope.

[0019] Optionally, a sealing strip is fixed to the periphery of the window sash, and a receiving panel is provided on the window frame corresponding to the sealing strip, with the sealing strip abutting against the receiving panel; the air outlet of the purge pipe faces the receiving panel.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solutions, the sealing performance of the window sash and window is more reliable after closure, and the sealing strip can play a buffering role to reduce vibration; correspondingly, the blow pipe is directed towards these receiving panels, which helps to ensure the cleanliness of the receiving panels and prevent the opening and closing of the window sash from being affected.

[0021] Optionally, the purge tube includes a tube body and an air cap. The tube body is provided with a protruding air inlet. The air cap covers the air inlet and is slidably disposed within the air inlet. The air cap is provided with a limiting part to prevent the air cap from detaching from the air inlet. An air outlet is provided through the profile surface of the window frame corresponding to the air inlet. The air inlet is inserted into the air outlet. When the air cap is fully lifted, it detaches from the profile surface of the window frame.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, an air cover is set to block the gas blown out of the air outlet, and the gas is transformed into an airflow that sweeps along the surface of the window frame profile. This is to better ensure the cleanliness of the receiving panel surface when the window frame profile body surface is used directly as the receiving panel.

[0023] Optionally, it also includes hinges and posts, the window sash is rotatably mounted on the window frame via the hinges, and the window frame is fixed to the posts; a decorative panel extends from the side of the window sash near the hinge to cover the hinge; a placement groove is provided on the side of the posts near the window frame, and the decorative panel rotates within the placement groove.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the hinges of the window sash can be hidden, improving the overall aesthetics of the window.

[0025] Optionally, decorative panels are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the window sash, and corresponding placement grooves are provided on the columns on both sides of the window frame; a sealing strip is fixed on the side of the decorative panel near the column, and a pressing edge that abuts against the wall of the placement groove is integrally provided on the side of the sealing strip near the column, and the cross section of the pressing edge is in the shape of a paddle.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the installation of sealing strips can not only improve the sealing performance of the window after it is closed, but also prevent impurities from entering between the window sash and the window frame.

[0027] Optionally, the hinge can rotate at an angle of 0° to 70°.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, controlling the rotation angle of the hinge is equivalent to controlling the opening range of the window sash, preventing the baffle from colliding with the pillar, and ensuring the normal opening and closing of the window sash.

[0029] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0030] 1. By setting up pneumatic window opening components, electric window closing components, and blowing components, airflow is used to blow the contact surfaces between the window frame and the window sash, hinge joints, and other positions during the window sash closing process. This prevents the accumulation of impurities from affecting the normal opening and closing of the window sash, reduces the probability of automatic smoke exhaust window failure, and ensures the normal use of automatic smoke exhaust window.

[0031] 2. By using a pressure check valve with dual control of air pressure and pressure spring to control the air intake of the purge tube, and by using a closed-window solenoid valve to control the control air pressure of the pressure check valve, the blowing pressure of the purge tube can be controlled more conveniently.
