Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of assembled bathrooms, and particularly to a wall panel adjusting support member. Background Art

[0002] The water usage frequency in the bathroom is high. In order to allow accumulated water to drain smoothly through the floor drain, the bathroom floor needs to have a slope. Generally, the slope range of the bathroom floor should be controlled within 5 degrees. In an assembled bathroom system, the bathroom bottom box itself does not have a slope. Therefore, before installing the bottom box, it is necessary to perform slope finding on the bathroom floor first. However, in this case, it is difficult for the wall panel to be kept in contact with the wall during subsequent installation of the wall panel. If the bottom of the wall panel is in contact with the ground, the wall panel will tilt and it is impossible to ensure that the wall panel is horizontal and completely in contact with the wall; if the wall panel is ensured to be horizontal and completely in contact with the wall, there will be a gap between the bottom of the wall panel and the ground, and the wall panel lacks support. For this, the general treatment method is to add a cushion block at the bottom of the wall panel, and use the cushion block to support the wall panel so that the wall panel is completely in contact with the wall and remains horizontal. However, the operability of this treatment method is low. The thickness of the cushion block needs to be adjusted by manually measuring the height difference between the bottom of the wall and the side of the bottom box. The adjustment of the wall panel is complex and the accuracy is low. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to propose a wall panel adjusting support member for supporting the wall panel and adjusting the levelness of the wall panel at the same time, so that the wall panel can also be adapted for installation when the ground has a certain slope.

[0004] The present invention proposes a wall panel adjusting support member, which includes a top plate for supporting the wall panel, a bottom plate for supporting the top plate, and an adjusting member connecting the top plate and the bottom plate. The adjusting member includes an adjusting piece and a supporting piece. The adjusting piece is movably arranged between the top plate and the bottom plate, and both ends of the supporting piece are in contact with the top plate and the bottom plate respectively.

[0005] A preferred technical solution of the present invention: One end of the adjusting piece is hinged to the bottom plate, and the other end of the adjusting piece is movably connected to the top plate.

[0006] The adjusting piece is movably arranged between the top plate and the bottom plate. The inclination angle of the top plate can be adjusted by changing the relative position relationship between the adjusting piece and the top plate, so that the wall panel located on the top plate can change its inclination angle according to the size of the ground slope; the adjusting piece and the supporting piece cooperate to support the top plate together, so that the top plate maintains an inclined state and stably bears the wall panel.

[0007] A preferred technical solution of the present invention: The top plate is provided with a positioning groove for inserting the end of the adjusting piece or the end of the supporting piece. The positioning groove includes a plurality of limiting grooves arranged in sequence and having parallel axes.

[0008] Since one end of the adjusting member is hinged to the bottom plate, when the adjusting member is rotated so that the end of the adjusting member is inserted into the limiting grooves at different positions, the adjusting member will tilt at different angles, thereby realizing the adjustment of the tilt angle of the top plate.

[0009] A preferred technical solution of the present invention: It further includes a sliding groove, the sliding groove is arranged below the positioning groove, and the sliding groove communicates with a plurality of the limiting grooves at the same time.

[0010] The adjusting member can change its cooperation position with the top plate by sliding in the limiting groove to achieve rapid adjustment. When it is necessary to change the position of the adjusting member inserted into the positioning groove, the top plate can be lifted to make the adjusting member withdraw from the limiting groove. After the adjusting member withdraws, it moves along the sliding groove to another limiting groove, and the top plate is lowered to make the adjusting member inserted into the limiting groove to complete the adjustment. The sliding groove provides guidance for the movement of the adjusting member, facilitating the rapid movement of the adjusting member into another limiting groove.

[0011] A preferred technical solution of the present invention: Anti-slip grooves are arranged on the bottom plate, the anti-slip grooves include a plurality of grooves arranged in sequence and with parallel axes, and the anti-slip grooves have the same length direction as the positioning grooves.

[0012] A single adjusting member is difficult to stably support the tilted top plate. By adding a support member between the top plate and the bottom plate, both ends of the support member are respectively abutted and arranged in the positioning groove and the anti-slip groove, so that the support member can cooperate with the adjusting member to jointly support the top plate and keep the top plate stable. The top plate supports the wall panel under the support of the support member and the adjusting member.

[0013] A preferred technical solution of the present invention: There are two support members, and both ends of the two support members close to the top plate are arranged.

[0014] The two support members support from both sides of the top plate at the same time to improve the support stability of the support members.

[0015] A preferred technical solution of the present invention: The ends of the two adjusting members are hinged and rotatably arranged on the bottom plate, and the two support members are respectively hinged to the other ends of the two adjusting members.

[0016] In this connection mode, a triangular structure will be formed among the adjusting member, the support member and the bottom plate, and a triangular structure will also be formed among the two adjusting members and the top plate. The triangular structure is stable, and multiple triangular structures are arranged between the bottom plate and the support plate to jointly support the top plate, so as to enhance the support stability of the adjusting member to the top plate.

[0017] A preferred technical solution of the present invention: A sliding member is arranged at the hinge joint of the support member and the adjusting member, the sliding member protrudes from the end of the adjusting member, and the adjusting member is inserted into the limiting groove through the sliding member.

[0018] After the support member and the adjusting member are hinged, the connection part between the two has a too large volume and is difficult to insert into the limiting groove. A protruding sliding member is provided at the ends of the support member and the adjusting member, which facilitates the ends of the support member and the adjusting member to be inserted into the limiting groove together, so that the support member and the adjusting member are kept stable to stably support the top plate after the adjustment angle.

[0019] A preferred technical solution of the present invention: Stop baffles are relatively arranged on both sides of the top plate, and the wall panel is arranged between the two stop baffles.

[0020] The two stop baffles are relatively arranged on both sides of the top plate to form a groove on the top plate. The wall panel can be inserted into the groove, and the top plate supports the wall panel through the groove. The two stop baffles on both sides are used to prevent the wall panel from shaking on the top plate and avoid the wall panel from detaching from the top plate, thereby ensuring the support stability of the top plate for the wall panel.

[0021] The wall panel adjusting support member of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. The top plate and the bottom plate are connected through the adjusting member and the support member, and both ends of the adjusting member are movably connected to the top plate and the bottom plate respectively to adapt to the rotation angle of the top plate for adjustment. At the same time, both ends of the support member are respectively abutted against the top plate and the bottom plate to assist the adjusting member in supporting the top plate, so that the adjusted top plate remains stable;

[0023] 2. A positioning groove is provided on the top plate. The positioning groove includes a plurality of limiting grooves with parallel axes. The ends of the support member and the adjusting member are inserted into the limiting grooves to be connected to the top plate. By changing the connection points of the support member and the adjusting member on the positioning groove, the inclination angle of the top plate is adjusted, thereby changing the inclination angle of the wall panel to achieve the leveling of the wall panel; at the same time, the connection can increase the contact area between the ends of the support member and the adjusting member and the top plate, and increase the connection stability between the support member and the top plate and between the adjusting member and the top plate;

[0024] 3. After the two adjusting members are hinged to each other and rotatably connected to the bottom plate, the two support members are respectively hinged to the other ends of the two adjusting members to form a connection form in which the support member, the two adjusting members, and the support member are hinged in sequence. Thus, a triangular structure can be formed between the support member, the adjusting member and the bottom plate, and between the two adjusting members and the top plate. The triangular structure is stable, which can increase the support stability of the adjusting member for the top plate, and further ensure that the adjusted top plate can stably support the wall panel;

[0025] 4. Stop baffles are relatively arranged on both sides of the top plate. The two stop baffles form a groove on the top of the top plate. The wall panel can be inserted into the groove to be connected to the top plate. The stop baffles can form limits on both sides of the wall panel to prevent the wall panel from shaking on the top plate, resulting in the wall panel detaching from the top plate;

[0026] 5. The top plate is provided with anti-slip grooves, and the support member and the adjusting member are in contact with the bottom plate through the anti-slip grooves to prevent the adjusting member and the support member from sliding, so as to increase the connection stability between the bottom plate and the adjusting member and between the bottom plate and the support frame.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0035] 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. Apparently, 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 fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other arbitrarily.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , a wall panel adjusting support member, including a bottom plate 30, an adjusting member 20 and a top plate 10. The wall panel 2 is arranged on the top plate 10. The adjusting member 20 is movably arranged between the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 30. The adjusting member 20 includes a support member 22 and an adjusting member 21. Both ends of the adjusting member 21 are movably connected to the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 30 respectively. The inclination angle of the top plate 10 can be changed by swinging the adjusting member 21. Both ends of the support member 22 are abutted against the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 30 respectively to assist the adjusting member 21 in supporting the top plate 10, so as to stabilize the adjusted top plate 10, and further support the wall panel 2 to ensure that the wall panel 2 is stably supported after adjustment.

[0038] In this embodiment, both the support member 22 and the adjusting member 21 are straight plate-shaped, and the adjusting member 21 and the support member 22 have the same length. One end of the adjusting member 21 is hinged to the bottom plate 30, and the other end thereof is abutted against the top plate 10 to limit the degree of freedom of the adjusting member 21 and prevent the adjusting member 21 from detaching from the bottom plate 30. The inclination angle of the top plate 10 can be changed by rotating the adjusting member 21 and changing the connection position between the adjusting member 21 and the top plate 10, so that the top plate 10 can be adjusted according to the angles of different slope-forming layers 3, which is convenient for installing the wall panel 2. After the top plate 10 is adjusted, swing the support member 22 and make both ends of the support member 22 abut against the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 30 respectively. The support member 22 and the adjusting member 21 jointly support and stabilize the adjusted top plate 10, so that the top plate 10 can stably support the wall panel 2 in subsequent installation.

[0039] Preferably, the two support members 22 are respectively arranged at both ends of the top plate 10 to stably support the top plate 10 and prevent the top plate 10 from shaking due to unstable support after adjustment.

[0040] As Figure 1 and 3 shown, the ends of the two adjusting members 21 are hinged and rotatably arranged in the middle of the bottom plate 30, and the two support members 22 are respectively hinged to the other ends of the adjusting members 21. Specifically, connection holes are formed at both ends of the two adjusting members 21, a rotating shaft is erected in the middle of the bottom plate 30, and rotating shafts are arranged at one ends of the two support members 22. The connection holes at both ends of the adjusting member 21 are respectively sleeved with the rotating shaft of the bottom plate 30 and the rotating shaft of the support member 22, and the other adjusting member 21 is connected to the bottom plate 30 and the support member 22 in the same way, so that the adjusting member 20 is arranged in an M shape between the bottom plate 30 and the top plate 10.

[0041] In this embodiment, as Figure 3As shown, a triangular structure is formed among the two adjusting members 21 and the top plate 10. By respectively controlling the rotation of the two adjusting members 21 around the rotating shaft, the inclination angle of the top plate 10 can be changed. Similarly, a triangular structure can be formed among the adjusting member 21, the supporting member 22, and the bottom plate 30. The supporting member 22 is rotated to adapt to the inclination of the top plate 10. The supporting member 22 and the adjusting member 21 jointly support the top plate and maintain the stability of the top plate 10, so that the top plate 10 can stably support the wall panel 2 subsequently.

[0042] Taking the rotating shaft in the middle of the bottom plate 30 as the demarcation line, the inclination angle of the top plate 10 can be changed by changing the supporting member 22 and the adjusting member 21 connected to one side, or the inclination angle and height of the top plate 10 can be changed by changing the supporting members 22 and the adjusting members 21 on both sides at the same time.

[0043] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 , when the top plate 10 needs to tilt to the left, the left adjusting member 21 can be swung counterclockwise, and the left supporting member 22 can be swung clockwise to make the top plate 10 tilt to the left. The wall panel 2 provided on the top plate 10 also tilts to the left accordingly. The adjustment for tilting to the right is the same; when the top plate 10 needs to tilt to the left and the height of the top plate 10 needs to be reduced, the right adjusting member 21 can be swung clockwise first, and the supporting member 22 can be swung counterclockwise to reduce the overall height of the adjusting member 20, and then the left adjusting member 21 and the supporting member 22 are adjusted to adjust the inclination angle of the top plate 10.

[0044] It should be noted that the operation sequence of the adjusting member 20 is not fixed. The supporting member 22 can be adjusted first and then the adjusting member 21 can be changed, or the adjusting member 21 can be changed first and then the supporting member 22 can be adjusted. Any combination of the operation sequences of the supporting member 22 and the adjusting member 21 can achieve the leveling of the top plate 10, and the adjustment sequence does not affect the inclination angle of the top plate 10.

[0045] A positioning groove 11 is provided at the bottom of the top plate 10. The positioning groove 11 includes a plurality of limiting grooves 101 with parallel axes. The ends of the adjusting member 21 and the supporting member 22 can be inserted into the limiting grooves 101 for connection. Specifically, the limiting grooves 101 penetrate the width direction of the top plate 10, and a plurality of limiting grooves 101 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the top plate 10.

[0046] Preferably, a sliding groove 102 is further provided below the positioning groove 11. The sliding groove 102 communicates with a plurality of limiting grooves 101, so that the end of the supporting member 22 or the adjusting member 21 can move from one limiting groove 101 to another limiting groove 101 through the sliding groove 102, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the top plate 10.

[0047] Preferably, a sliding member 201 is provided at the hinge joint of the support member 22 and the adjusting member 21. The sliding member 201 is columnar and is arranged on both sides of the support member 22, and the axes of the sliding members 201 on both sides are collinear. The sliding member 201 is inserted into the limiting groove 101 from the side of the top plate 10 to connect the support member 22 with the top plate 10; when the top plate 10 needs to be adjusted, lift the top plate 10 to disengage the sliding member 201 from the limiting groove 101, rotate the support member 22 and swing the top plate 10 to move the sliding member 201 along the sliding groove 102 to another limiting groove 101, and lower the top plate 10 to insert the sliding member 201 into the other limiting groove 101, then the connection transformation between the adjusting member 20 and the top plate 10 can be completed.

[0048] Two stop baffles 12 are arranged on both sides of the top plate 10. The two stop baffles 12 are oppositely arranged on the upper end surface of the top plate 10, so that a groove is formed on the top plate 10, and the wall panel 2 is arranged in the groove. The stop baffles 12 can form limits at both ends of the wall panel 2 and support on the end surface of the wall panel 2 to prevent the wall panel 2 from shaking in the groove and avoid the wall panel 2 from disengaging from the top plate 10 due to shaking.

[0049] Anti-slip grooves 31 are arranged on the bottom plate 30 to increase the friction between the support member 22 and the bottom plate 30 and avoid the unstable contact between the support member 22 and the bottom plate 30, resulting in the top plate 10 not being stably supported by the adjusting member 20 after adjustment. The anti-slip grooves 31 include a plurality of grooves 311 with parallel axes, and the end of the support member 22 can be inserted into the grooves 311 to contact the bottom plate 30. Specifically, the anti-slip grooves 31 have the same length direction as the positioning grooves 11, so that when the support member 22 is swung, both ends of the support member 22 can effectively contact and connect with the positioning grooves 11 and the anti-slip grooves 31.

[0050] In actual operation, as Figure 5 shown, a slope-forming layer 3 with a certain angle is arranged on the ground 4. The bottom plate 30 on the adjusting support member 1 is fixedly arranged on the slope-forming layer 3 by gluing or screws. Coarsely adjust the adjusting member 20 in advance to make the top plate 10 roughly parallel to the ground 4. Arrange the wall panel 2 between the two stop baffles 12 of the top plate 10, and then finely level the wall panel 2 by swinging the support member 22 and the adjusting member 21. It should be noted that considering that in actual use, most of the wall panels 2 are installed with the bottom edge parallel to the ground 4. Therefore, in this application, the operation is described by taking the leveling of the wall panel 2 as an example. However, in actual operation, the adjusting support member 1 can adjust the wall panel 2 at any angle, and the operator can adjust the inclination direction and inclination angle of the wall panel 2 according to the use requirements.

[0051] Embodiment 2

[0052] Please refer to Figure 6, different from the first embodiment, the structural form of the adjusting member 20 and the connection manner between the adjusting member 20 and the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 30 are different. Specifically, in this embodiment, the adjusting member 21 is in a straight plate shape, and connection holes are provided at both ends thereof. Rotating shafts are provided in the middle of the bottom of the top plate 10 and the middle of the top of the bottom plate 30. The connection holes are sleeved on the rotating shafts, and the two ends of the adjusting member 21 are rotatably connected to the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 30 respectively through the cooperation of the connection holes and the rotating shafts. The top plate 10 can rotate relative to the adjusting member 21 and the bottom plate 30 to change its inclination angle.

[0053] The support member 22 includes a screw sleeve 222 and a screw rod 223. The screw sleeve 222 is a long straight rod, with a hook 221 provided at one end and a receiving cavity provided at the other end. Internal threads that can cooperate with the screw rod 223 are provided in the receiving cavity; a hook 221 is also provided at one end of the screw rod 223, and the other end of the screw rod 223 is threadedly connected to the screw sleeve 222. Connection grooves are provided at the bottom of the top plate 10 and the top of the bottom plate 30. The two connection grooves are symmetrically arranged near both sides of the top plate 10, and the two connection grooves are symmetrically arranged near both sides of the bottom plate 30. A connection shaft 13 is fixedly provided in the connection groove. In this embodiment, the hook 221 at the end of the screw sleeve 222 is hung on the connection shaft 13 of the top plate 10, and the receiving cavity is riveted to the screw sleeve 222 so that the receiving cavity can rotate around the central axis of the screw sleeve 222; the hook 221 at the end of the screw rod 223 is hung on the connection shaft 13 of the bottom plate 30, and the other end of the screw rod 223 is threadedly connected to the receiving cavity. The threaded engagement length between the screw rod 223 and the screw sleeve 222 can be changed by rotating the receiving cavity, so as to change the overall length of the support member 22, so that the support member 22 can adapt to the inclination of the top plate 10 for length adjustment to better support the top plate 10.

[0054] As Figure 6 shown, taking the middle of the bottom plate 30 as the dividing line, if it is necessary to tilt the top plate 10 to the right, the receiving cavity on the right screw sleeve 222 can be rotated to increase the engagement length between the screw rod 223 and the screw sleeve 222, so that the overall length of the right support member 22 becomes shorter; at the same time, rotate the receiving cavity on the left screw sleeve 222 to reduce the engagement length between the screw rod 223 and the screw sleeve 222, so that the overall length of the left support member 22 becomes longer, and the top plate 10 can be adjusted to tilt to the right; adjusting the top plate 10 to tilt to the left is the same principle.

[0055] It should be noted that different from the first embodiment, in this embodiment, only the inclination direction and inclination angle of the top plate 10 can be adjusted, and the height of the top plate 10 cannot be changed. In this embodiment, the height of the top plate 10 is determined by the height of the adjusting member 21, and the height of the top plate 10 can be changed by replacing the adjusting member 21 with different heights.

[0056] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
