Description

Technical field:

[0001] This technology is applicable to the fields of transportation, construction, machinery manufacturing, etc. Background technology:

[0002] Due to outdated drive technology, it's difficult to use thick insulating glass in current car door lifts, and the travel is too short. The single-layer glass and double-layer glass bonded together in car doors are not insulating glass, have poor thermal insulation, and consume a lot of energy. The technology of this invention can be used in the automotive, construction, and machinery manufacturing industries. The enclosure described in this document also includes the enclosures and exteriors of various types of machinery and equipment. The glass material can also be replaced with metal or polymer materials. Summary of the invention:

[0003] The inventor's flexible connection technology between the driving device and the driven object, as described in CN107013142A, enables the use of thicker insulating glass in automobile doors. Automobile skylights can also use removable insulating glass. The front windshields and rear windows of automobile cabs, sedans, and buses can use fixed or removable insulating glass. Windows in passenger and freight cars, electric vehicle passenger and freight cars, train passenger and freight cars, and machinery and equipment, as well as various vents, pedestrian and vehicle passages, and through-channels on walls and exteriors, can use removable insulating glass. The glass material can also be replaced with metal, wood, or polymer materials.

[0004] Insulating glass can move vertically, horizontally, and even tilted. The technology described in CN107013142A can be used in automobile and electric vehicle doors. However, in many applications, such as vehicle body windows, the limited concealed space makes this device impractical and requires modifications. The improved technology of the present invention offers an unexpectedly large travel range, virtually unlimited travel of the driven object. Description of the drawings:

Figure 5 The lock 4 in the Figure 3 The fixed sealing plate 4 in the outer frame 1 and the sealing grooves 8, 9, 10 are combined, and the lower end outer frame and the horizontal guard frame are combined into 12.

[0008] Figure 4 :for Figure 3 The figure is rotated 90 degrees. A number of balls are arranged at different positions in the sealing groove at the lower end.

[0009] Figure 5 :Compared to CNl07013142A Figure 5 For instructions and working principle, see CN107013142A. Specific implementation method:

[0010] This document Figure 5 , and CNl07013142A Figure 5 consistent. Figure 5 2 (inner door panel) and 3 (outer door panel) should be reduced in size, and can be reduced to only being able to hide the drive device 14. Cancel 10 (guide rail) and 12 (sliding device, also called slider) and 13 (lower end connector of the guide rail). Merge 9 (two symmetrical auxiliary guard frames) into the left-right symmetrical 8 (sealing groove). Both the left and right sealing grooves should be equipped with driven wheels and traction ropes, and no power cord is provided. The power cord can be provided in the transverse guard frame 16. The drive device 14 can be fixed on the transverse guard frame 16. The bracket 11 can be transformed into a kind of edging for insulating glass. A 1 mm thick thin steel strip is set at the bottom of the bracket 11, perpendicular to the glass plane, with a length equal to the distance between the two left-right symmetrical sealing grooves and a width less than the distance between the inner and outer door panels. A sealing strip is set on the thin steel strip, which is a movable sealing plate that cannot rub against the door panel and the sealing groove. Both the outer door panel 2 and the inner door panel 3 are provided with a thin steel strip perpendicular to the door panel on the side facing the glass. A sealing strip is set on it. Both ends are in close contact with the sealing groove 8, but cannot affect the operation of the glass, forming two fixed sealing plates.

[0011] When the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 closes the ventilation channel (through groove) 6, the upper end, left end and right end of the glass are all in the sealing groove, and the movable sealing plate at the lower end and the two fixed sealing plates on the door panel squeeze and seal.

[0012] Thin metal strips (such as 1 mm thick stainless steel strips) can be used to edge the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5. The upper end of the glass that cannot be hidden can be left unedgeed. The edge of the glass can be hidden by sealing grooves, etc. The edge technology can refer to the plastic and metal strips on the outside of large cardboard and wooden boxes in logistics.

[0013] A traction rope can be fixed on the edges on the four corners of the glass (small door / lifting plate 5), and the traction rope can be a thin stainless steel cable.

[0014] The driving device 14 is rotated electrically or manually to twist the traction rope, which pulls the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 up and down in the sealing groove 8. When the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 is pulled to the top, the vent (through groove) 6 is closed.

[0015] If the area of ​​the vent (through groove) 6 is larger, the glass is heavy and the two traction ropes at the lower end of the glass can be omitted. The glass will slide downward by weight and there is no need to pull the traction rope downward. The two traction ropes at the upper end of the glass only need to hold the glass and prevent it from sliding down too quickly.

[0016] Figure 5 The improved device is Figure 3 , after rotating 90 degrees, Figure 4 , the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 is transformed from the up and down motion on the vertical plane to the left and right motion on the vertical plane. It is also possible to rotate 90 degrees from another rotating shaft to make the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 move left and right on the horizontal plane.

[0017] The glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 that moves left and right in the vertical plane can have multiple balls at different positions in the sealing groove at its lower end. The resistance of the glass edging to the movement of the balls is small. The two corners of the upper end of the glass do not need to be connected to the traction rope. Just pull the two traction ropes at the lower end of the glass. When the glass moves to the right, pull the right rope at the lower end. When the glass moves to the left, pull the left rope at the lower end.

[0018] Figure 3Working principle: The driving wheel 14 is rotated electrically or manually to twist the traction rope, which pulls the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 up and down in the left sealing groove 8 and the right sealing groove 10. When the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 is pulled to the top, the vent channel (through groove) 6 is closed, that is, the left end, upper end and right end of the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 are respectively in the sealing grooves 8, 9 and 10. At the same time, the movable sealing plate on the glass edging (bracket) 11 and the two fixed sealing plates on the inner and outer plates are squeezed to form a seal on the lower end of the glass (small door / lifting plate 5).

[0019] Figure 4 Working principle: Figure 3 The angle of rotation 90 degrees is Figure 4 , that is: the glass (small door / lifting plate) 5 that moves up and down is converted into left and right movement. Figure 4 Glass (small door / lifting plate) 5, in Figure 4 The balls in the lower sealing groove 10 move upward.

[0020] The glass moving on the horizontal plane can be connected to the traction rope at the four corners, and multiple balls can be set at different positions in the two symmetrical sealing grooves.

[0021] A security mesh can be installed in the middle of the insulating glass. The mesh can be made of stainless steel strips or thin stainless steel cables and can be fixed to the glass edge.

[0022] A fine steel wire mesh can be set between the two pieces of glass that are glued together, and it can be fixedly connected to the edge of the glass.

[0023] The glass mentioned in this document includes single-layer glass panels, multiple-layer glass panels glued together, and composite insulating glass panels.
