Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of modular building, and in particular to a modular building structure latch self-locking connection node. Background Art
[0002] Modular steel structure buildings have the advantages of short construction period, high building quality, green and low-carbon environmental protection, etc. Modular steel structure needs to use connection nodes to splice and combine prefabricated modules to form a complete modular building. Fast, universal, safe and reliable connection nodes between modules are the key to fully utilizing the advantages of modular steel structure buildings in rapid construction and ensuring the overall stress performance of modular steel structure.
[0003] The connection nodes are basically located at the four corners of the rectangular module. The existing connection methods for modular building structures mainly include the following two methods:
[0004] (1) Grouting connection nodes: The adjacent modules are connected by specific components and then concrete is poured between the adjacent modules. This connection method requires a cavity for pouring concrete at the connection of the modules, which will result in a larger volume at the connection. At the same time, this connection method also requires on-site grouting and waiting for the concrete to solidify and cure. The on-site construction is complicated and the construction efficiency is low.
[0005] (2) Bolt connection nodes: threaded holes are opened at the connection of the modules, and screws are inserted between two adjacent modules. However, this connection method requires high processing accuracy of the threaded holes so that the two adjacent modules can be installed in position. At the same time, opening holes on the modules will weaken the strength of the modules and the connection strength between the modules. In addition, a large installation space must be reserved during installation, which makes it difficult to use in places with limited construction space.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a connection node that is easy to install on site, has low processing accuracy requirements and does not affect the strength of the module. Summary of the invention

[0044] (III) Beneficial effects
[0045] The beneficial effects of the modular building structure self-locking connection node provided by the present invention are:
[0046] It can realize horizontal constraint, vertical constraint and moment constraint: the horizontal and vertical forces carried by the upper connector and / or the lower connector can be transmitted by the upper part of the force transmission connector and the side wall of the first end of the first slot, the lower part of the force transmission connector and the side wall of the first end of the second slot, and the mutual pressure between the locking mechanism and the force transmission connector, so as to avoid the upper connector and the lower connector from being separated in the horizontal and vertical directions. Since the upper connector and the lower connector realize the constraint in the horizontal and vertical directions through the locking of the force transmission connector and the locking mechanism, the upper connector and the lower connector can not have relative displacement or the displacement is small before being destroyed. Therefore, this connection node has good rigidity and can be regarded as a rigid connection in an ideal state, that is, it can bear a large moment load.
[0047] Improved the overall mechanical properties of the modular building structure: The entire connection node can disperse the overall force from the center to the upper and lower connectors, avoiding deformation or bending caused by concentrated force at the node connection of the upper and lower modules, and improving the overall mechanical properties of the modular building structure.
[0048] Quick installation, saving time and effort: When processing the upper module and the lower module, the upper connecting piece can be fixed to the bottom corner of the upper module in advance, and the lower connecting piece can be fixed to the top corner of the lower module. When connecting on site, it is only necessary to install the force transmission connecting piece and the locking mechanism, and complete the assembly of the upper connecting piece and the lower connecting piece, thereby realizing the assembly of the upper module and the lower module. The installation process is simple and quick, and there is no need to wait for the concrete to solidify and cure, saving time and effort.
[0049] It can effectively control construction errors, and has low processing and installation precision requirements: since the locking mechanism and the force transmission connector can move relative to the upper connector and the lower connector along the first horizontal direction, when the upper connector and the lower connector are assembled on site with a horizontal offset, the position of the force transmission connector in the first horizontal direction can be adjusted by the locking mechanism, so that the upper part of the force transmission connector can be pressed against the side wall of the first end of the first slot and the lower part of the force transmission connector can be pressed against the side wall of the first end of the second slot, which can effectively control construction errors. Therefore, this connection node has low requirements for the processing precision of each component and the on-site assembly precision of the node, and is easy to assemble.

[0065] A: First horizontal direction. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0066] In order to better explain the present invention and facilitate understanding, the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings through specific embodiments. Figure 1 The orientation is used as a reference.
[0067] See also Figure 1-10 A modular building structure self-locking latch connection node proposed in an embodiment of the present invention includes an upper connecting member 1, a lower connecting member 2, a force transmission connecting member 3 and a locking mechanism 4.
[0068] The upper connecting member 1 can be fixed to the bottom corner of the upper module. The bottom of the upper connecting member 1 is provided with a first slot 11 extending along the first horizontal direction A. The lower connecting member 2 can be fixed to the top corner of the lower module. The top of the lower connecting member 2 is provided with a second slot 21 extending along the first horizontal direction A. The force transmission connecting member 3 is oriented vertically.
[0069] After the upper part of the force transmission connecting member 3 can be movably inserted into the first slot 11 along the first horizontal direction A, and the lower part can be movably inserted into the second slot 21 along the first horizontal direction A, the locking mechanism 4 can connect the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2, and push the force transmission connecting member 3 along the first horizontal direction A to press the upper peripheral wall of the force transmission connecting member 3 against the side wall of the first end of the first slot 11 in the first horizontal direction A and the lower peripheral wall of the force transmission connecting member 3 against the side wall of the first end of the second slot 21 in the first horizontal direction A.
[0070] Therefore, this connection node has the following effects:
[0071] It can realize horizontal constraint, vertical constraint and moment constraint: the horizontal and vertical forces carried by the upper connector 1 and / or the lower connector 2 can be transmitted by the upper part of the force transmission connector 3 and the side wall of the first end of the first slot 11, the lower part of the force transmission connector 3 and the side wall of the first end of the second slot 21, and the mutual pressure between the locking mechanism 4 and the force transmission connector 3, so as to avoid the horizontal and vertical separation between the upper connector 1 and the lower connector 2. Since the upper connector 1 and the lower connector 2 realize the horizontal and vertical constraints through the locking of the force transmission connector 3 and the locking mechanism 4, the upper connector 1 and the lower connector 2 can not have relative displacement or the displacement is small before being destroyed. Therefore, this connection node has good rigidity and can be regarded as a rigid connection in an ideal state, that is, it can bear a large moment load.
[0072] The overall mechanical properties of the modular building structure are improved: the entire connection node can disperse the overall force from the center to the upper connection member 1 and the lower connection member 2, avoiding deformation or bending caused by concentrated force at the node connection of the upper and lower modules, thereby improving the overall mechanical properties of the modular building structure.
[0073] Quick installation, saving time and effort: When processing the upper module and the lower module, the upper connecting piece 1 can be fixed to the bottom corner of the upper module in advance, and the lower connecting piece 2 can be fixed to the top corner of the lower module. When connecting on site, it is only necessary to install the force transmission connecting piece 3 and the locking mechanism 4, and complete the assembly of the upper connecting piece 1 and the lower connecting piece 2, so as to realize the assembly of the upper module and the lower module. The installation process is simple and quick, and there is no need to wait for the concrete to solidify and cure, which saves time and effort.
[0074] It can effectively control construction errors, and the requirements for processing and installation accuracy are relatively low: since the locking mechanism 4 and the force transmission connector 3 can move relative to the upper connector 1 and the lower connector 2 along the first horizontal direction A, when the upper connector 1 and the lower connector 2 are assembled on site and there is a horizontal offset, the position of the force transmission connector 3 in the first horizontal direction A can be adjusted by the locking mechanism 4, so that the upper part of the force transmission connector 3 can be pressed against the side wall of the first end of the first slot 11 and the lower part of the force transmission connector 3 can be pressed against the side wall of the first end of the second slot 21, which can effectively control construction errors. Therefore, this connection node has low requirements for the processing accuracy of each component and the on-site assembly accuracy of the node, and is easy to assemble.
[0075] Furthermore, in order to further improve the vertical locking force of the force transmission connecting member 3 on the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2:
[0076] A first limiting groove 14 is formed at an upper portion of a side wall of a first end of the first insertion slot 11 in the first horizontal direction A and faces the second end of the first insertion slot 11 .
[0077] A second limiting groove 222 facing the second end of the second slot 21 is defined at a lower portion of a side wall of the first end of the second slot 21 in the first horizontal direction A. The second limiting groove 222 faces the second end of the second slot 21 .
[0078] The force transmission connecting member 3 includes a main body 32 , a first limiting platform 33 formed by horizontally extending outward from the upper end of the main body 32 , and a second limiting platform 31 formed by horizontally extending outward from the lower end of the main body 32 .
[0079] When the first limiting platform 33 and the upper part of the main body 32 are inserted into the first slot 11, and the lower part of the main body 32 and the second limiting platform 31 are inserted into the second slot 21, the locking mechanism 4 can push the force transmission connector 3 to move along the first horizontal direction A, so that the peripheral wall of the first limiting platform 33 presses against the peripheral wall of the first limiting groove 14, the peripheral wall of the main body 32 presses against the peripheral wall of the second limiting groove 222, and the peripheral wall of the second limiting platform 31 presses against the peripheral wall of the second limiting groove 222, the bottom wall of the first limiting groove 14 can limit the bottom of the first limiting platform 33, and the top wall of the second limiting groove 222 can limit the top of the second limiting platform 31. The locking mechanism 4 can also connect the upper connector 1 and the lower connector 2.
[0080] Therefore, when the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2 are assembled, the bottom wall of the first limiting groove 14 can limit the bottom of the first limiting platform 33, and the top wall of the second limiting groove 222 can limit the top of the second limiting platform 31 when the upper connecting member 1 and / or the lower connecting member 2 bear tension in the vertical direction, so as to avoid relative movement of the force transmitting connecting member 3 with the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2 in the vertical direction, further avoid vertical separation of the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2, and improve the locking force between the two.
[0081] Furthermore, the locking mechanism 4 includes a tenon sleeve 41 , an elastic member and a connecting assembly 43 .
[0082] The tenon sleeve 41 is movable in the second slot 21 along the first horizontal direction A. The elastic member extends along the first horizontal direction A, and its two ends are respectively connected to the side wall of the second end of the tenon sleeve 41 and the second slot 21. The elastic member can switch between a contracted state and a resilient state.
[0083] When the elastic member is in a contracted state, the main body 32 and the second limiting platform 31 can be inserted into the second slot 21 from between the first end of the second slot 21 and the tenon sleeve 41 .
[0084] When the elastic member is in a rebound state, it can push the tenon sleeve 41 to move along the first horizontal direction A toward the first end of the second slot 21, so that the tenon sleeve 41 pushes the lower part of the main body 32 to press against the side wall of the first end of the second slot 21 and pushes the second limiting platform 31 to press against the peripheral wall of the second limiting groove 222, and then the connecting component 43 can be inserted into the first slot 11 and can move along the first horizontal direction A toward the first end of the first slot 11 to push the first limiting platform 33 to press against the peripheral wall of the first limiting groove 14. The connecting component 43 can also connect the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2.
[0085] When the upper and lower modules are assembled on site and it is found that there is a horizontal relative offset between the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2, the tenon sleeve 41 can adjust its position in the first horizontal direction A under the elastic force of the elastic member, so as to adapt to pushing the lower part of the main body 32 to press against the side wall of the first end of the second slot 21 and the second limit platform 31 to press against the surrounding wall of the second limit groove 222, thereby further reducing the requirements of this connection node for processing accuracy and on-site assembly accuracy, and further facilitating assembly.
[0086] Specifically, in order to switch between different states of the elastic member, the locking mechanism 4 further includes a baffle 42 , which can be vertically moved to be inserted into the second slot 21 in a locked state and an unlocked state.
[0087] When the baffle 42 is in the locked state, the baffle 42 presses against the side of the tenon sleeve 41 toward the first end of the second slot 21, and the elastic member is in a contracted state to lock the baffle 42, leaving space for the force transmission connector 3 to be inserted into the second slot 21.
[0088] When the lower portion of the force transmission connector 3 is inserted into the second slot 21 , the force transmission connector 3 can push the baffle 42 downward to be located below the tenon sleeve 41 , so that the baffle 42 is in an unlocked state and the elastic member is in a rebound state.
[0089] Specifically, the second slot 21 further has vertically oriented sliding grooves 25 on both sides in the second horizontal direction perpendicular to the first horizontal direction A, and the sliding grooves 25 extend downward to the inside of the bottom wall of the second slot 21. Both sides in the width direction of the baffle 42 are inserted into the sliding grooves 25 and can move vertically along the sliding grooves 25 to support the baffle 42 and improve the accuracy of the vertical movement of the baffle 42.
[0090] Furthermore, the connecting assembly 43 includes a pushing member 431 , a plug plate 432 and a fastener 433 .
[0091] The push member 431 is extended along the first horizontal direction A. The first end of the push member 431 is inserted into the first slot 11 and can move toward the first end of the first slot 11 along the first horizontal direction A to push the first limiting platform 33 to press against the peripheral wall of the first limiting groove 14. The second end of the push member 431 can protrude outside the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2 and open a vertically oriented socket 4314.
[0092] After the tenon sleeve 41 pushes the lower part of the main body 32 to press against the side wall of the second end of the second slot 21 and pushes the second limiting platform 31 to press against the peripheral wall of the second limiting groove 222, the first end of the pusher 431 is inserted into the first slot 11, and the pusher 431 is pushed to move toward the first end of the first slot 11 along the first horizontal direction A, so that the pusher 431 pushes the first limiting platform 33 to press against the peripheral wall of the first limiting groove 14. Subsequently, the plug plate 432 is inserted into the socket 4314 and pressed against the side walls of the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2, and then the fastener 433 is inserted between the plug plate 432 and the upper connecting member 1 and between the plug plate 432 and the lower connecting member 2, so that the connection and locking of the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2 can be conveniently realized.
[0093] Optionally, the fastener 433 is a screw. The side wall of the upper connecting member 1 is provided with a first threaded hole 13 for passing through and connecting the fastener 433 , and the side wall of the lower connecting member 2 is provided with a second threaded hole 26 for passing through and connecting the fastener 433 .
[0094] Preferably, in order to further improve the mutual locking force between the force transmission connecting member 3 and the lower connecting member 2, the following configuration is also included:
[0095] The main body 32 of the force transmission connection member 3 is set as a cylinder, and the second limit platform 31 is set as a truncated cone. The main body 32 and the second limit platform 31 are coaxial.
[0096] A third limiting groove 221 is further provided on the side wall of the first end of the second slot 21 and is located above the second limiting groove 222. The second limiting groove 222 and the third limiting groove 221 are coaxial and are both axially vertical arc grooves, and the inner diameter of the second limiting groove 222 is larger than the inner diameter of the third limiting groove 221, so that the top wall of the second limiting groove 222 can limit the top of the second limiting platform 31.
[0097] The peripheral wall of the cylindrical main body 32 can be tightly pressed against the arcuate peripheral wall of the third limiting groove 221, and the peripheral wall of the truncated cone-shaped second limiting platform 31 can be tightly pressed against the arcuate peripheral wall of the second limiting groove 222, so as to increase the contact area between the main body 32 and the third limiting groove 221, and between the second limiting platform 31 and the second limiting groove 222, further improve the mutual pressing and locking force between the force transmission connecting member 3 and the lower connecting member 2, and further avoid horizontal and vertical separation of the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2.
[0098] Preferably, in order to better improve the mutual locking force between the force transmission connecting member 3 and the lower connecting member 2, the following configuration is also included:
[0099] A first arc groove 411 and a second arc groove 412 are formed from top to bottom on one side of the tenon sleeve 41 facing the first end of the second slot 21 . The first arc groove 411 and the second arc groove 412 are coaxial and axially vertical.
[0100] When the tenon sleeve 41 pushes the force transmission connector 3 to move toward the first end of the second slot 21 along the first horizontal direction A, the first arc groove 411 can hug the lower peripheral wall of the cylindrical main body 32, and the second arc groove 412 can hug the peripheral wall of the second limit platform 31, so as to increase the contact area between the tenon sleeve 41 and the force transmission connector 3, and enhance the driving force applied by the tenon sleeve 41 to press the force transmission connector 3 against the lower connector 2, so as to better improve the mutual pressing and locking force between the force transmission connector 3 and the lower connector 2, and further avoid horizontal and vertical separation of the first connector 1 and the second connector 2.
[0101] Specifically, the inner diameter of the second arc-shaped groove 412 is greater than the inner diameter of the first arc-shaped groove 411 .
[0102] Preferably, in order to increase the mutual locking force between the main body 32 and the third limiting groove 221 in the vertical direction:
[0103] The lower peripheral wall of the main body 32 and the peripheral wall of the third limiting groove 221 are both provided with a concave-convex structure that allows the two to be plugged into each other along the first horizontal direction A, so as to increase the mutual locking force between the main body 32 and the third limiting groove 221 in the vertical direction when the first connecting member 1 and the second connecting member 2 bear a vertical load, further avoiding the separation of the force transmitting connecting member 3 and the connecting member 2 in the vertical direction, and further avoiding the vertical separation of the first connecting member 1 and the second connecting member 2 when bearing a vertical load.
[0104] More preferably, both the lower peripheral wall of the main body 32 and the peripheral wall of the third limiting groove 221 are provided with threads that allow the two to be plugged into each other along the first horizontal direction A, so as to facilitate processing.
[0105] Preferably, in order to further facilitate the connection of the connecting assembly 43 to the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2, and to further enhance the pressing and locking force between the force transmission connecting member 3 and the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2, the following configuration is also included:
[0106] The cross section of the first slot 11 is T-shaped, and the second end of the first slot 11 is open to form a first notch 12 .
[0107] The first stopper 33 is a cuboid coaxial with the main body 31, and the longitudinal section of the combination of the first stopper 33 and the main body 31 is a T-shaped body that is plugged into the first slot 11. When assembling, after the upper connecting member 1 is moved to be located above the lower connecting member 2, the upper part of the first stopper 33 and the main body 31 can be inserted into the first slot 11 through the first notch 12, and the bottom of the first stopper 33 can be hung in the first slot 11, so that the upper connecting member 1 drives the lower part of the main body 31 and the second stopper 31 to be inserted downward into the second slot 21.
[0108] A horizontal slot 23 extending along the first horizontal direction A is further provided at the top of the lower connecting member 2. The horizontal slot 23 is located above the second slot 21 and is vertically connected to each other. The width of the horizontal slot 23 is greater than the width of the second slot 21. The first end of the horizontal slot 23 in the first horizontal direction A is closed, and the second end is open to form a second notch 24.
[0109] The pushing member 431 includes, from top to bottom, a first plate 4311 , a second plate 4312 and a third plate 4313 , all of which extend along the first horizontal direction A.
[0110] The cross section of the assembly of the first plate 4311 and the second plate 4312 is in a T-shape that fits in the first slot 11. The first end of the first plate 4311 in the first horizontal direction A is a vertical plane, and the first end of the third plate 4313 in the first horizontal direction A or the first ends of the second plate 4312 and the third plate 4313 in the first horizontal direction A are provided with an axially vertical third arc groove 4315. The second end of at least one of the first plate 4311, the second plate 4312 and the third plate 4313 is provided with a vertically oriented socket 4314.
[0111] The specific assembly steps are:
[0112] S1: The tenon sleeve 41 pushes the lower part of the main body 32 along the first horizontal direction A to press against the peripheral wall of the second limiting groove 222 , and the second limiting platform 31 presses against the peripheral wall of the second limiting groove 222 .
[0113] S2: The first plate 4311 and the second plate 4312 can be inserted into the first slot 11 through the first notch 12, and the third plate 4313 can be inserted into the horizontal slot 23 through the second notch 24. The vertical plane of the first plate 4311 can fit and press the first limiting platform 33 of the rectangular parallelepiped against the peripheral wall of the first limiting groove 14, and the third arc groove 4315 can hold the peripheral wall of the main body 31 and press the main body against the inner wall of the third limiting groove 221. In this way, the contact area between the pusher 431 and the force transmission connector 3 can be increased, and the pushing force applied by the pusher 431 to press the force transmission connector 3 against the upper connector 1 is enhanced, thereby enhancing the pushing force to press the force transmission connector 3 against the lower connector 2, so as to better improve the mutual pressing and locking force between the force transmission connector 3 and the upper connector 1 and the lower connector 2, and further avoid the horizontal separation and vertical separation of the first connector 1 and the second connector 2. At the same time, the first limiting platform 33 of the rectangular body is pressed against the peripheral wall of the first limiting groove 14, which can also prevent the force transmission connecting member 3 from rotating in the vertical direction relative to the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2, and further improve the locking stability of the force transmission connecting member 3 for the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2.
[0114] S3: Insert the plug plate 432 into the socket 4314 protruding from the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2, and then fix the plug plate 432 to the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2 at the same time through the fastener 433 to connect the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2.
[0115] Therefore, the connection assembly 42 can conveniently realize the connection locking of the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2, and can enhance the pressing and locking force between the force transmission connecting member 3 and the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2 respectively.
[0116] Example 2
[0117] Based on the embodiment 1, this embodiment further provides a modular building structure, including the connection node in the embodiment 1, and also including an upper module and a lower module. The upper module and the lower module can be connected to form a modular building structure through the connection node.
[0118] One side and the top of the upper connecting member 1 are respectively welded to the ends of the adjacent bottom beams and columns in the upper module, so that the upper connecting member 1 is fixed to the bottom corner of the upper module.
[0119] One side and the bottom of the lower connecting member 2 are respectively welded to the ends of the adjacent top beams and columns in the lower module, so that the lower connecting member 2 is fixed to the top corner of the lower module.
[0120] The upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 2 can be opposed to each other up and down and connected through the force transmission connecting member 3 and the locking mechanism 4 to connect the upper module and the lower module that are vertically opposed.
[0121] Thus, the modular building structure can weld the upper connector 1 to the upper module and the lower connector 2 to the lower module, and connect and lock the upper connector 1 and the lower connector 2 relative to each other in combination with the force transmission connector 3 and the locking mechanism 4, so as to realize the corner connection of the connection node for the upper module and the lower module, and ensure the connection strength of the node.
