Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of curtain walls, in particular to a novel steel structure curtain wall. Background Art

[0002] A steel curtain wall is a non-load-bearing wall surrounding a building, composed of panels and a supporting structure. It has a certain degree of displacement or deformation capacity relative to the main structure and does not directly share the forces acting on the main structure. It typically uses a steel skeleton as the fixed structure, covered with decorative materials such as glass and aluminum alloy. Steel curtain walls offer advantages such as light weight, easy installation, short construction periods, excellent seismic performance, rapid investment returns, and minimal environmental pollution. They are widely used in high-rise buildings, large-span structures, stadiums, exhibition halls, commercial complexes, factories, warehouses, logistics centers, airports, railway stations, underground space projects, and other locations.

[0003] However, existing steel curtain walls still have certain problems. That is, when using structural parts for fixed installation, it is necessary to ensure that each structure is in a horizontal alignment. Once fixed, it is difficult to make additional adjustments. During the subsequent panel installation, if there is a gap, it can only be compensated by using sealing or caulking materials, which affects the final curtain wall decoration effect. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a new type of steel structure curtain wall to solve the technical problem that when using structural parts for fixed installation, it is necessary to ensure that each structure is in a horizontal alignment state.

During the subsequent panel installation, if there is a gap, it can only be compensated by using sealing or caulking materials, which affects the final decorative effect of the curtain wall.

[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A new type of steel structure curtain wall includes a horizontal beam, a vertical beam and a panel. The horizontal beam is fixedly connected to the vertical beam. A U-shaped connecting piece is provided on the horizontal beam. A mounting piece that cooperates with the U-shaped connecting piece is fixedly provided on the back of the panel. The mounting piece is connected to the horizontal beam by an adjustment mechanism, and the adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the position of the panel.

[0007] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism includes: a ratchet and a rack, a ratchet is rotatably connected to the crossbeam, the ratchet is engaged with the rack, the rack is slidably connected to the limiting slot plate, the limiting slot plate is fixedly set on the crossbeam, a vertical unit is fixedly set on the side of the rack away from the ratchet, a rectangular groove is fixedly opened in the middle of the mounting piece, the rectangular groove cooperates with the vertical unit to realize the detachable connection between the mounting piece and the rack, a pawl is provided on the crossbeam, and the pawl cooperates with the ratchet to limit the reverse rotation of the ratchet.

[0008] Furthermore, the vertical unit includes a rectangular connecting column, the top of the rectangular connecting column is embedded and fixed with a No. 1 magnetic block, the inside of the rectangular groove is fixed with a No. 2 magnetic block, the No. 1 magnetic block and the No. 2 magnetic block are magnetically attracted to each other, the bottom of the rectangular connecting column is slidably installed in a rectangular sleeve, the bottom end of the rectangular sleeve is fixed on the rack, and a plurality of elastic units are arranged inside the rectangular sleeve, and the elastic units are used to fix the rectangular connecting column after it rises into place.

[0009] Furthermore, the elastic unit includes a cap body, a support spring is connected between the inside of the cap body and the inner wall of the rectangular sleeve, a sliding groove is vertically opened on the outer surface of the rectangular connecting column, and an embedding groove is opened at the bottom end of the sliding groove; when the rectangular connecting column rises, the cap body corresponds to the embedding groove, and the support spring pushes the cap body into the embedding groove.

[0010] Furthermore, an airbag is bonded and fixed to the bottom of the rectangular groove, the inside of the airbag is filled with adhesive, the top of the rectangular connecting column is recessed downward, overflow grooves are opened around the top of the rectangular connecting column, the bottom ends of the overflow grooves are connected together with elastic retaining rings, and a plurality of puncturing heads are fixedly provided at the recessed part of the rectangular connecting column, and the puncturing heads are used to puncture the airbag to enable the adhesive to flow out.

[0011] Furthermore, a crushing detection assembly is installed on the vertical beam, and the crushing detection assembly is used to detect the integrity of the panel. The crushing detection assembly includes:

[0012] A probe is slidably mounted in the syringe, and a compression spring is connected between the bottom of the probe and the top wall of the syringe;

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] See also Figures 1-6 As shown, the present invention is a new type of steel structure curtain wall, including a horizontal beam 1, a vertical beam 2 and a panel 3. The horizontal beam 1 is fixedly connected to the vertical beam 2. A U-shaped connector 4 is provided on the horizontal beam 1. A mounting member 5 that cooperates with the U-shaped connector 4 is fixedly provided on the back of the panel 3. The mounting member 5 is connected to the horizontal beam 1 through an adjustment mechanism 6, and the adjustment mechanism 6 is used to adjust the position of the panel 3.

[0028] The adjusting mechanism 6 includes: a ratchet 61 and a rack 62. The ratchet 61 is rotatably connected to the beam 1, and the ratchet 61 is engaged with the rack 62. The rack 62 is slidably connected to the limiting slot plate 63. The limiting slot plate 63 is fixedly provided on the beam 1. A vertical unit 64 is fixedly provided on the side of the rack 62 away from the ratchet 61. A rectangular groove 65 is fixedly provided in the middle of the mounting member 5. The rectangular groove 65 cooperates with the vertical unit to realize the detachable connection between the mounting member 5 and the rack 62. A pawl 67 is provided on the beam 1, and the pawl 67 cooperates with the ratchet 61 to limit the reverse rotation of the ratchet 61.

[0029] The vertical unit includes a rectangular connecting column 641, the top of which is embedded and fixed with a No. 1 magnetic block 642, and a No. 2 magnetic block 643 is fixedly arranged inside the rectangular groove 65. The No. 1 magnetic block 642 and the No. 2 magnetic block 643 are magnetically attracted to each other, and the bottom of the rectangular connecting column 641 is slidably installed in a rectangular sleeve 644, and the bottom end of the rectangular sleeve 644 is fixedly arranged on the rack 62. A plurality of elastic units 66 are arranged inside the rectangular sleeve 644, and the elastic units 66 are used to fix the rectangular connecting column 641 after it rises into place.

[0030] In order to reduce the problem of gaps and unevenness between the panels 3, the present invention provides an adjustment mechanism 6. When installing the panel 3, the spacing value between the panel 3 and the side of the beam 1 is adjusted by the adjustment mechanism 6, thereby achieving limited adjustment of a single panel 3. However, compared with the fixed components in the prior art, it obviously has a greater redundancy to achieve the purpose of improving the flatness of the curtain wall. During installation, the mounting piece 5 on the back of the panel 3 is first matched with the middle part of the U-shaped connecting piece 4, and then the panel 3 is slightly moved until the rectangular groove 65 in the middle of the mounting piece 5 is in a vertically facing state with the rectangular connecting column 641. Under the action of magnetic attraction, the rectangular connecting column 641 at the bottom moves along the rectangular sleeve 644. The rectangular connecting column 641 moves, so the rectangular connecting column 641 rises directly and is inserted into the rectangular groove 65. After rising into place, the elastic unit 66 works to fix the rectangular connecting column 641. The rectangular connecting column 641 then serves as a connecting member between the upper rectangular groove 65 and the lower rectangular sleeve 644, thereby realizing a fixed connection between the rack 62 and the mounting member 5. Therefore, by pushing the rack 62, the spacing value between the panel 3 and the beam 1 can be changed, so as to achieve the purpose of flush installation of the panel 3. After being adjusted into place, with the cooperation of the ratchet 61 and the pawl 67, the gear cannot move in the opposite direction. Therefore, the ratchet 61 and the rack 62 maintain a stable state, thereby realizing effective installation of the panel 3 with greater flexibility.

[0031] The elastic unit 66 includes a cap body 661, and a support spring 662 is connected between the inside of the cap body 661 and the inner wall of the rectangular sleeve 644. A sliding groove 663 is vertically opened on the outer surface of the rectangular connecting column 641, and an embedding groove 664 is opened at the bottom end of the sliding groove 663; when the rectangular connecting column 641 rises, the cap body 661 corresponds to the embedding groove 664, and the support spring 662 pushes the cap body 661 into the embedding groove 664.

[0032] An airbag 651 is bonded and fixed to the bottom of the rectangular groove 65, and the inside of the airbag 651 is filled with adhesive. The top of the rectangular connecting column 641 is recessed downward, and overflow grooves 652 are provided around the top of the rectangular connecting column 641. The bottom ends of the overflow grooves 652 are connected to elastic retaining rings 653. A plurality of puncturing heads 654 are fixedly provided at the recessed part of the rectangular connecting column 641, and the puncturing heads 654 are used to puncture the airbag 651 to enable the adhesive to flow out.

[0033] The present invention is that after the rectangular connecting post 641 rises to a set distance, it is limited by the bottom end of the slide groove 663. At this time, the cap body 661 is opposite to the embedding groove 664. Therefore, under the elastic force of the support spring 662, the cap body 661 can be pushed into the embedding groove 664. The multiple elastic units 66 work together to form a restriction on the bottom of the rectangular connecting post 641. In order to prevent the influence of external factors during the later use process, which causes the adjustment mechanism 6 structure to shake, an air bag 651 and a puncture head 654 are provided to cooperate. In the process of the rectangular connecting post 641 rising and gradually contacting the air bag 651, since the middle part of the rectangular connecting post 641 is concave downward, the puncture head 654 will not puncture when the rectangular connecting post 641 and the air bag 651 just come into contact. When the rectangular connecting post 641 continues to rise to form an extrusion force on the air bag 651, the air bag 651 is deformed after being squeezed and matches the concave shape of the rectangular connecting post 641, and then is punctured by the puncture head 654. 4 punctures, causing the adhesive to flow out of the airbag 651, and the excess adhesive to flow out of the overflow groove 652, thereby preventing a large amount of adhesive from accumulating and failing to form an effective bond between the rectangular groove 65 and the rectangular connecting column 641. Therefore, the adhesive overflows through the overflow groove 652 and is intercepted by the elastic retaining ring 653. On the one hand, the elastic retaining ring 653 can be compressed by the rectangular connecting column 641 and the side wall of the rectangular groove 65 to form a sealing effect. On the other hand, the adhesive can be fully intercepted to the part above the elastic retaining ring 653, thereby maximizing the bonding surface of the adhesive. While improving the bonding effect, it can also avoid ineffective waste of adhesive and improve the effective utilization rate of the adhesive. At the same time, the puncturing head 654 delays puncturing the airbag 651, allowing the rectangular connecting column 641 to extend a part into the rectangular groove 65 before puncturing, thereby preventing the elastic retaining ring 653 from overflowing before the adhesive enters, which is wasteful and difficult to clean after dripping.

[0034] A crushing detection assembly 7 is also installed on the vertical beam 2, and the crushing detection assembly 7 is used to detect the integrity of the panel 3. The crushing detection assembly 7 includes:

[0035] A probe 71 is slidably mounted in the syringe 72 , and a compression spring 73 is connected between the bottom of the probe 71 and the top wall of the syringe 72 ;

[0036] Displacement groove 74, the syringe 72 is fixedly mounted on one side of the movable seat 75 extending out of the displacement groove 74, and the other end of the movable seat 75 is slidably connected to the displacement groove 74 opened on the side wall of the vertical beam 2, and an automatic telescopic element 76 is connected between the inside of the displacement groove 74 and the syringe 72.

[0037] A freely rolling ball 77 is embedded in the end of the probe 71 , and a pressure sensor 78 is provided on the top wall of the syringe 72 .

[0038] In order to detect the breakage of the panel 3 in a timely manner, the present invention provides a breakage detection assembly 7. It should be noted that the automatic telescopic element 76 may be a memory alloy spring or a pneumatic telescopic rod.

[0039] During operation, it is particularly suitable for areas with large temperature differences between day and night. By utilizing the thermal expansion and cold contraction characteristics of the memory alloy spring, the telescopic element 76 automatically expands when the temperature rises under direct sunlight, thereby pushing the movable seat 75 to slide along the displacement groove 74. The movable seat 75 extends out of one side of the displacement groove 74 to drive the syringe 72 to move outward, and the probe 71 can perform the detection task along the preset trajectory. When the panel 3 is broken, when the probe 71 moves, the ball 77 at its end will contact the uneven panel 3, resulting in a slight change. As a result, the pressure applied by the compression spring 73 to the pressure sensor 78 changes, which can reflect the broken state of the panel 3, shortening the waiting time for the subsequent replacement of the broken panel 3.

[0040] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the present invention. However, the content described is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and should not be considered to limit the scope of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the patent coverage of the present invention.
