Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of building decoration construction technology, specifically to a glass wall system and construction method installed on a foundation structure with vibration characteristics. Background Technology

[0002] In modern architecture, especially in large public buildings such as shopping malls, airports, and exhibition halls, glass decorative walls or glass railings are often installed to achieve transparency, aesthetics, and natural lighting. These glass walls typically use metal columns as the main load-bearing components. The lower ends of the columns are fixed to the building's load-bearing structure or the ground foundation, while the upper ends are connected to stable parts of the building structure (such as floor slabs, beams, or the main frame) via connectors. Glass panels are installed between adjacent columns using clips or clamps to form a continuous facade structure.

[0003] In the aforementioned conventional structure, the glass decorative wall relies entirely on a stable main structure, with the connecting foundations at both ends of the columns remaining relatively stationary and experiencing almost no relative displacement. This design ensures uniform stress on the glass panels, neat joints, and is simple to construct while being relatively inexpensive, thus making it widely used in stable building environments.

[0004] However, in some building components, the foundation beneath the glass decorative wall is not a stable load-bearing structure. For example, in cantilevered corridors, platforms, and connecting corridors, the supporting steel structure beneath them will experience slight vibrations due to pedestrian traffic, wind loads, or equipment operation. When these vibrations are transmitted to the glass wall through the columns, they can cause shear stress between the glass panels and the connectors. Especially under conditions of multi-point asynchronous vibration or resonance, this can easily lead to abnormal stress on the glass or even the risk of breakage. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention.

[0036] Please see Figures 1 to 6This invention provides a technical solution: a glass wall system and construction method installed on a foundation structure with vibration characteristics. The invention divides the lower half of the glass wall into multiple independent floating units, each consisting of two floating columns 4a and a fixed glass panel. In this way, each floating unit can move independently, effectively avoiding the support of multiple adjacent columns on the same glass panel, and preventing shear stress concentration caused by misalignment during vibration transmission, thereby significantly improving the stability of the glass wall in a vibration environment.

[0037] The floating column 4a is connected to the foundation via spring support 5 and a lateral moving component. It can absorb both vertical and lateral vibrations when the foundation vibrates, while simultaneously adapting to the horizontal displacement of the foundation through the horizontal moving component. This design not only prevents direct impact of vertical vibrations on the glass wall but also effectively controls the lateral displacement of the floating column 4a, avoiding additional lateral stress on the glass panel.

[0038] Furthermore, to further enhance structural stability, this invention incorporates a crossbeam 2 system between the upper and lower glass wall sections. The crossbeam 2, together with the support frame 3, ensures the stability of the upper fixed glass wall 1 and effectively minimizes the vibration impact of the floating column 4a, thereby guaranteeing the long-term safety and stable operation of the glass wall in dynamic environments.

[0039] The glass wall support system of this invention ensures the safety of the glass wall while addressing common foundation vibration issues in buildings, and is particularly suitable for cantilever foundations or cantilevered steel structures. Compared with traditional fixed support structures, this invention has higher adaptability and flexibility, ensuring the long-term stability of the glass wall under different vibration modes and adapting to a wider range of building environments.

[0040] Fixed glass wall 1:

[0041] The fixed glass wall 1 is set in the upper part of the entire glass wall structure to form a stable overall support frame and to provide a positioning and constraint basis for the lower floating glass wall 4.

[0042] The fixed glass wall 1 includes several fixed columns 1a and glass panels installed between the fixed columns 1a. The fixed columns 1a are reliably connected to the stable structure of the building main body, for example, by means of steel connectors, embedded parts, or welded structures, and fixed to concrete beams, columns, or steel structures. After installation, the fixed columns 1a together with the building main body form a stable load-bearing system, and their positions and spacing are determined according to the size of the glass panels.

[0043] The fixed column 1a is arranged vertically, extending downward from the upper connection point, and has a cantilever end at its bottom. The cantilever end is used to reliably connect with the crossbeam 2. The bottom of the fixed column 1a is connected to the upper surface or both sides of the crossbeam 2, so that the crossbeam 2 and the fixed glass wall 1 form an integral frame structure.

[0044] Several glass clips are installed on the opposite sides of the fixed column 1a along the column height direction to fix the glass plate.

[0045] Each glass panel is supported on its left and right sides by two adjacent fixed columns 1a. The glass panels and glass clips are separated by rubber gaskets or flexible connectors to absorb minor displacements and prevent stress concentration. Multiple glass panels are arranged sequentially between adjacent fixed columns 1a, forming a continuous horizontal arrangement of "fixed column 1a, glass panel, fixed column 1a, glass panel...". This structure possesses good overall rigidity and transparency, and can withstand wind loads, its own weight, and some external forces.

[0046] To adapt to different building forms, the appearance of the fixed glass wall 1 can be customized according to the building facade or interior space design, and the columns can be square, round or irregular cross-section.

[0047] Through the above structural design, the fixed glass wall 1 not only realizes the stable support function of the traditional curtain wall system, but also forms the upper stable support area in this invention, providing a reference benchmark and constraint point for the floating glass wall 4 below, so that when the vibration comes from the lower foundation, the upper structure still maintains overall stability and prevents the force and displacement from being transmitted to the upper layer.

[0048] Crossbeam 2:

[0049] The crossbeam 2 is located in the middle of the glass wall and is arranged horizontally along the extension direction of the glass wall. The crossbeam 2 connects the upper fixed glass wall 1 and the lower floating glass wall 4, and is a key load-bearing component in the entire support system for connecting the fixed glass wall 1 and the floating glass wall 4. The main function of the crossbeam 2 is to provide a stable foundation for the floating unit system below.

[0050] The crossbeam 2 itself is a rigid structure. The body of the crossbeam 2 is made of steel components with high bending stiffness and torsional stiffness, such as H-shaped or rectangular tube structures, and can be equipped with internal reinforcing ribs to prevent deformation caused by external forces. As a rigid unit, the crossbeam 2 constitutes the core of force transmission stability in the entire system.

[0051] The upper part of the beam 2 is connected to the lower end of the fixed column 1a. The fixed column 1a is stably connected to the main building structure and provides vertical support for the beam 2, preventing it from sinking or swaying under vertical loads. This connection is usually achieved through welding, bolting, or plugging components, ensuring that the beam 2 and the fixed glass wall 1 form an integral rigid frame.

[0052] The beam 2 is connected to the stable structure of the building (such as beams, columns, or steel frame structures) via a support frame 3. The support frame 3 provides horizontal support to the beam 2, including support forces along the length of the beam 2 and perpendicular to the beam 2, thereby preventing the beam 2 from shifting or swaying in the horizontal plane. Simultaneously, the support frame 3 also provides auxiliary vertical support to the beam 2 to share the load of the superstructure. The support frame 3 can be in the form of steel connecting rods, diagonal braces, or frames; its installation location and number are determined based on the length of the glass wall and the load distribution.

[0053] Floating glass wall 4:

[0054] The floating glass wall 4 is located in the lower half of the glass wall system and consists of multiple independent floating units arranged continuously along the extension direction of the glass wall. Each floating unit is independent of the others and can make relative micro-movements when the foundation structure 6 vibrates, thus avoiding shear stress cracking of the glass panel caused by misalignment of adjacent components.

[0055] Floating Units: The floating glass wall 4 is located in the lower half of the glass wall system and consists of multiple independent floating units arranged continuously along the extension direction of the glass wall. Each floating unit is independent of the others and can make relative micro-movements when the foundation structure 6 vibrates, thereby preventing vibration energy from being directly transmitted between the glass panels and avoiding shear stress cracking of the glass panels due to misalignment of adjacent components.

[0056] Floating column 4a: The top of the floating column 4a is connected to the crossbeam 2 to determine the vertical positioning of the floating column 4a. This connection can be a movable connection or a rotating connection, such as through a ball joint or a rotatable joint. Such a connection structure allows the top of the floating column 4a to remain in a fixed position with the crossbeam 2 during foundation vibration, while also allowing for deflection movement to prevent stress concentration when the floating column 4a deflects. The top of the floating column 4a can also use a flexible connector to achieve a flexible connection, such as a rubber bearing. This allows for limited slight up-and-down floating of the floating column 4a, reducing the stress impact of the floating column 4a's movement on the crossbeam 2.

[0057] The bottom of the floating column 4a is supported on the foundation structure 6 by spring support 5 and lateral moving parts. Spring support 5 has vertical elasticity, so that the floating column 4a does not jump when the foundation structure 6 generates vertical vibration. Instead, the elastic deformation of spring support 5 absorbs the vibration displacement, thereby isolating the vertical vibration of the foundation.

[0058] When the base vibration has a horizontal component, the bottom of the floating column 4a will generate a follow-up horizontal displacement. The lateral moving component moves at the lower end of the floating column 4a to buffer the lateral vibration force of the floating column 4a and prevent the glass plates of the floating unit from colliding. A gap is provided between adjacent floating units to ensure that the floating units will not collide or squeeze each other when relative micro-movements occur. The size of the gap can be determined according to the floating amount and construction tolerances, and is usually from a few millimeters to more than ten millimeters. A shielding component is provided at the gap. The shielding component includes a connecting plate 10 fixed to the outside of the floating column 4a. A rubber decorative block 15 is fixedly installed between the connecting plates 10 on the outside of two floating columns 4a, which ensures the overall continuity and aesthetics while preserving the freedom of independent movement of the floating units.

[0059] Lateral moving parts:

[0060] The lateral moving component includes a support plate 7 and a fixed moving block 8. The fixed block 8 is fixed to the upper end of the support plate 7. The support plate 7 and the fixed moving block 8 are installed between the spring support 1 5 and the floating column 4a to absorb the lateral displacement of the foundation structure. An installation groove 11 is provided on one side of the upper end of the fixed moving block 8. Slider blocks 12 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the inner walls of the front and rear sides of the installation groove 11. A spring support 2 13 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the other end of the installation groove 11. A sliding groove 9 corresponding to the slider 12 is provided at the lower end of the floating column 4a. The lower ends of the two floating columns 4a of the same floating unit are fitted with fixed moving blocks 8. The floating fixed moving block 8 slides from one side of the floating column 4a and is fitted onto the lower end of the floating column 4a through the installation groove 11. At the same time, the slider 12 is inserted into the sliding groove 9, and the outer side of the lower end of the floating column 4a is fixedly connected to one side of the spring support 2 13. The fixed moving block 8 can slide at the lower end of the floating column 4a.

[0061] Through the above structural design, the floating glass wall 4 exhibits significant differences in stress distribution compared to traditional integral glass walls. Each floating unit is arranged independently, avoiding shear stress on the glass panels caused by misalignment of adjacent columns due to higher-order vibrations. Minor horizontal follow-up movements are permitted, further reducing stress concentration and ensuring long-term stability of the glass wall under vibration conditions.

[0062] In a preferred embodiment, the floating unit can be pre-assembled on the ground, with the floating column 4a, support arm, glass clamps, and glass panel forming a stable structural unit before being hoisted to the designed position. This method significantly improves construction accuracy and safety, and facilitates later maintenance or unit replacement.

[0063] Spring support 15:

[0064] Spring support 5 is installed on the foundation structure 6 to support and bear the vertical load of the floating glass wall 4, while also isolating and absorbing foundation vibrations. Spring support 5 includes a base, a spring, and a guide assembly.

[0065] Base: The base is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the foundation structure 6 and can be firmly connected to the foundation through expansion bolts, welding, or embedded parts. The base is the fixed base of the entire support system, and its upper surface is provided with spring mounting grooves or limiting rings for positioning the springs. The base can be made of welded steel plate structure or cast structure, with sufficient rigidity and fatigue resistance to withstand the long-term periodic loads of the floating unit.

[0066] Springs: Springs are installed above the base to support the weight of the floating column 4a and absorb vertical vibrations. The springs are preferably helical compression springs, but disc spring assemblies or rubber elastomers can also be used as needed. The spring stiffness coefficient is selected based on the weight of the floating unit and the design vibration frequency, ensuring that it remains moderately compressed under static load to guarantee the vertical stability of the floating column 4a.

[0067] When the foundation structure 6 experiences vertical vibration, the spring undergoes periodic compression or expansion, absorbing the vertical displacement of the foundation and keeping the bottom of the floating column 4a at a relatively constant height, thereby preventing the column from jumping around.

[0068] Since the horizontal movement of building foundations is usually small, the vertical stiffness of the spring is much greater than its lateral flexibility. Therefore, the spring will not significantly affect the stability of the column during small horizontal movements.

[0069] Guide assembly: To prevent the floating column 4a from tilting due to horizontal movement of the foundation or installation errors, the spring support 5 is equipped with a guide assembly to limit the lateral displacement of the bottom of the column, ensuring that the force is always along the axis of the spring. The guide assembly includes a guide sleeve and a sliding column. The guide sleeve is fixed to the base, and the sliding column is fixed to the bottom of the floating column 4a. The sliding column is inserted into the guide sleeve to form a sliding fit.

[0070] The guide assembly can be equipped with a limit structure or a buffer washer to ensure that the bottom of the column can freely expand and contract in the vertical direction while providing moderate restraint in the horizontal direction. This design can prevent the column from tilting or the support from becoming unstable due to eccentric spring force.

[0071] In a preferred embodiment, a dust cover or protective sleeve is provided between the spring and the guide assembly to prevent dust, impurities, or rainwater from entering and affecting the spring's operation. The base may also be provided with drainage holes or vents to prevent corrosion caused by long-term water accumulation.

[0072] Construction method:

[0073] The glass wall support system provided by this invention is constructed from top to bottom, ensuring the stability of the upper structure before gradually installing the lower floating structure.

[0074] 1. Construction of the fixed glass wall support system.

[0075] 1.1 Install fixed columns 1a. Install connecting parts are pre-installed on the stable structure of the main building (such as frame beams, columns, roof slabs, or floor beams), and several fixed columns 1a are installed in place according to the design spacing. Fixed columns 1a can be connected to the main building structure by welding, bolts, or embedded parts. The verticality and parallelism of the columns should meet the design requirements. Fixed columns 1a are used to support the upper glass wall and provide stable support nodes for the lower horizontal beam 2.

[0076] 1.2 Install the crossbeam 2 and support frame 3. Install the crossbeam 2 at the lower end of the fixed column 1a. The crossbeam 2 is arranged along the extension direction of the glass wall and is welded or bolted to the fixed column 1a. Then install the support frame 3. One end of the support frame 3 is connected to the crossbeam 2, and the other end is fixed to a stable part of the building structure (such as a floor slab or ceiling system). The support frame 3 can adopt a linkage type or frame type structure to provide horizontal and necessary vertical support to the crossbeam 2. The crossbeam 2, fixed column 1a, and support frame 3 together form the upper stable frame, providing a rigid reference for the floating unit system.

[0077] 2. Construction of the floating glass wall support system.

[0078] 2.1 Spring Support 5 Installation and Lateral Movement Components: Several spring supports 5 are installed on the foundation structure 6 (including but not limited to cantilevered steel structures, floor slab edges, or foundation components with vibration characteristics) according to the design layout. Lateral movement components are installed on the upper end of the spring supports 5. The spring supports 5 are fixed to the foundation by bolts, welding, or embedded parts. During installation, it is necessary to ensure that the upper plane of the support is horizontal and that the spring is in a natural compression state.

[0079] After the guide assembly is installed, its sliding performance should be checked to ensure that the spring axis is aligned with the center line of the floating column 4a.

[0080] 2.2 Installation of Floating Column 4a. The lower end of the floating column 4a is slidably connected to the fixed moving block 8, which is mounted on the spring support 5 via the support plate 7. Through the cooperation of the spring support 5 and the lateral moving component, the bottom of the floating column 4a allows it to float vertically with the extension and contraction of the spring, thus buffering lateral vibration forces when the foundation structure 6 experiences lateral displacement.

[0081] The top of the floating column 4a is connected to the crossbeam 2 via a ball joint, flexible connector or rotatable joint, ensuring that the top of the floating column 4a is fixed but allows slight rotation, thereby avoiding stress concentration caused by foundation vibration.

[0082] After installation, the pre-compression of each floating column 4a can be finely adjusted according to design requirements to ensure that the upper surface of each column is at the same height.

[0083] 3. Glass installation

[0084] Installation Method 1: After completing the installation of all structural components, including fixed column 1a, crossbeam 2, floating column 4a, and spring support 5, install the glass panels last. First, install the glass panels for the fixed glass wall 1 section, then install the glass panels for the floating glass wall 4 section. During installation, use glass clips or clamps to fix the glass panels to the corresponding column support arms. Maintain a preset gap between adjacent floating units; flexible sealing strips or decorative covers can be installed at the gaps.

[0085] Installation Method Two: Before construction, the floating column 4a, support arm, glass clips, and several glass panels are pre-assembled on the ground into a complete floating unit. Each floating unit is hoisted to the designed position, with its bottom connected to the spring support 5 and its top connected to the crossbeam 2. This method can significantly improve construction efficiency and installation accuracy, and is suitable for projects with high standardization and tight construction schedules.
