Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of curtain wall construction technology, specifically to a unitized glass curtain wall with rapid positioning. Background Technology

[0002] Unitized glass curtain walls have become the mainstream solution for the external envelope of super high-rise buildings and large public buildings due to their advantages such as high degree of industrialization, fast installation speed, and good waterproof performance. At present, the on-site installation of unitized curtain walls usually adopts the operation process of "hoisting and positioning - plugging and fastening - bolting". The core relies on tower cranes or winches to transport the curtain wall units to the predetermined floor. Multiple installers work together to use tools such as pry bars and guide chains to roughly align the units. Then, they complete the plugging and fastening by repeatedly trying and visually calibrating the units. Finally, they tighten the bracket bolts to fix the units in place.

[0003] Chinese patent CN119593562A discloses an auxiliary positioning device for the construction of unitized curtain wall windows. This patent changes its own outline size to match different window frames. The positioning frame and the window frame are only in a static fit relationship and do not have any locking or fixing ability. Once the window frame is in place, the device has completed its work and cannot be used anymore. At this time, the window frame still needs to rely on additional clamps or manual support to maintain its position, which is not convenient for the installation of unitized glass curtain walls.

Installation grooves are formed on one side of the two horizontal rails close to the middle rail. Rack bars are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the installation groove. A plurality of fixing clamping plates are fixedly connected to one side of the horizontal rail.

[0008] Preferably, a plurality of guide rods are fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing plate. Two symmetrically arranged semi-gears are rotatably connected to the upper surface of the fixing plate through a rotating shaft. The overall angle of the semi-gear is greater than a flat angle. The clamping member is trapezoidal as a whole, and its two sides are arc surfaces. The diameter of the arc surface is equal to the diameter of the semi-gear. The clamping member is slidably connected to the end of the guide rod far away from the fixing plate. A spring is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the clamping member, and the other end is fixedly connected to the fixing plate. In the initial state, the spring is in a stretched state.

[0009] Preferably, a sliding member is slidably connected to the inner wall of the central plate. Limiting grooves are formed on both sides of the sliding member. Sliding plates are slidably connected in the limiting grooves. An adjusting bolt one is rotatably connected to the surface of one sliding plate, and a clamping plate is rotatably connected to the other sliding plate. The other end of the adjusting bolt one passes through the central plate and is threadedly connected thereto. The other end of the clamping plate passes through the central plate and is rotatably connected thereto. An adjusting bolt two penetrates through the surface of the sliding member, and the adjusting bolt two is threadedly connected to the sliding member. A limiting ring is fixedly connected to the surface of the adjusting bolt two, and the limiting ring is rotatably connected to the central plate.

[0010] Preferably, chutes are formed on the two inclined surfaces of the sliding member. The sliding member is slidably connected to a slider through the chutes. The other end of the slider passes through the central plate and is fixedly connected to a connecting plate. A threaded cylinder one is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting plate. A stud one is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded cylinder one. The other end of the stud one is rotatably connected to a support column one, and the end of the support column one far away from the stud one contacts the nearest horizontal rail.

[0011] Preferably, there are two support blocks which are symmetrically arranged. Threaded cylinders two are fixedly connected to both ends of one support block.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The half gear, the snap-fit ​​part and the spring in the positioning component form a one-way mechanical locking mechanism. When the curtain wall unit falls, it will automatically lock and cannot be reversed. This fundamentally eliminates the risk of the panel falling due to the loosening of the hook or wind load. At the same time, the whole can be completed by the weight of the outer frame itself, which is simple to operate. 2. The entire frame can be adjusted along the XYZ axes, and is completely decoupled, greatly reducing the complexity of leveling. The Y-axis is adjusted by driving the sliding plate through the adjusting bolt one, the X-axis is adjusted by moving the adjusting bolt two axially through the moving rod, the Z-axis is adjusted by moving the sliding piece through the adjusting bolt two, and the Z-axis is adjusted by using the inclined plane, thus shortening the total time required for the three-dimensional adjustment of a single glass curtain wall in XYZ. 3. The combination of leveling and detection components allows for intuitive and effective adjustment of the curtain wall tilt, while also preventing excessive compression damage to adjacent curtain walls and reserving expansion space during use.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] 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 some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. 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.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-10 This invention provides a technical solution: a unitized glass curtain wall for rapid positioning, comprising an outer frame 1, which is the load-bearing foundation of the entire curtain wall unit. The outer frame 1 can be integrally formed from high-strength aluminum alloy profiles, thus possessing advantages such as light weight and high strength, thereby ensuring structural stability and service life. The outer frame 1 has a generally U-shaped structure to ensure uniform stress distribution, effectively distributing the weight of the curtain wall itself and external loads. Two horizontal mullions 11, two vertical mullions 16, and one central mullion 18 are fixedly installed inside the outer frame 1. Both the mullion 18 and the center mullion 18 are horizontally set, and the vertical mullions 16 are vertically set and fixedly connected to both ends of the horizontal mullion 11 and the center mullion 18. The center mullion 18 is horizontally set between the two vertical mullions 16, thereby dividing the interior of the outer frame 1 into two independent installation areas. A glass layer 2 is fixedly connected inside the outer frame 1. The glass layer 2 can be made of insulated tempered glass, which has good sound insulation and heat insulation effects. The glass layer 2 is fixedly bonded to the inner side of the outer frame 1 with high-strength structural adhesive. The adhesive is evenly applied to the bonding surface to ensure a firm connection and a waterproof seal to prevent penetration.

[0020] The mullion 16 has a slot 17 on its side. The slot 17 has a convex cross-section and its opening faces away from the mullion 18, which facilitates alignment with adjacent curtain walls. The inner wall of the slot 17 is smoothed to facilitate the insertion and removal of the connector strip 71 and ensure a good fit after insertion. Two symmetrically arranged fasteners 19 are fixedly connected to the middle of the surface of the mullion 18. The fasteners 19 are made of stainless steel and are fixed to the mullion 18 by welding. The opening direction of the two fasteners 19 is diagonal, forming an angle with the horizontal direction. The opening size is adapted to the thickness of the center plate 41, which facilitates the quick rotation and insertion of the center plate 41. At the same time, the diagonal opening can enhance the connection stability between the center plate 41 and the fasteners 19 and prevent the center plate 41 from sliding laterally.

[0021] Both mullions 11 have mating grooves 12 on their surfaces. The mating grooves 12 extend along the length of the mullions 11 and are used for mating between curtain wall units. The inner wall of the mating groove 12 is provided with a sealing groove, which can further improve the sealing performance after the units are mated. A sealing element 15 is slidably connected in the mating groove 12 of the upper mullion 11. The width of the sealing element 15 is the same as the width of the mating groove 12, so that it can slide freely in the mating groove 12. This allows it to seal the different mating gaps between two adjacent curtain walls. When two curtain wall units are mated, the sealing element 15 is slid to the gap. Subsequently, waterproof adhesive and other adhesives are applied to the sides of the IQ section to cover the gaps and limit the movement of the two curtain walls, effectively preventing rainwater and dust from entering the interior of the curtain walls and ensuring their waterproof and dustproof performance. Each of the two horizontal mullions 11 has a mounting groove 13 on the side near the central mullion 18. The mounting groove 13 is set along the length of the horizontal mullion 11 and is used to install the adjustment component 4. Both sides of the inner wall of the mounting groove 13 are fixedly connected to racks 14, which are welded to the horizontal mullion 11. The racks 14 have uniform tooth pitch, allowing them to cooperate with the sliding parts 43 of the adjustment component 4 for positioning and sliding. Several fixing plates 64 are fixedly connected to one side of the horizontal mullion 11. The fixing plates 64 are made of stainless steel and are evenly distributed on the side of the horizontal mullion 11. Two fixing plates 64 are placed as a group, typically one group every half meter. Bolt holes are provided on the fixing plates 64 to cooperate with the fixing component 6 to fix the curtain wall unit to the building structure.

[0022] The outer frame 1 integrates a positioning component 3, an adjustment component 4, a fixing component 6, a leveling component 5, and a detection component 7. The positioning component 3 is used for rapid initial positioning of the unitized glass curtain wall. The positioning component 3 includes a half gear 31, a fixing plate 34, and a snap-fit ​​component 35. All components are made of stainless steel to ensure long-term stability. Several guide rods 33 are fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing plate 34. The guide rods 33 are vertically arranged and distributed on the surface of the fixing plate 34. The guide rods 33 are fixed to the fixing plate 34 by welding, ensuring a firm connection. The surface of the guide rods 33 is smooth to facilitate the sliding of the snap-fit ​​component 35. The upper part of the fixing plate 34... Two symmetrically arranged half-gears 31 are rotatably connected to the surface via a rotating shaft. The overall angle of the half-gears 31 is greater than the horizontal angle, such as - degrees, so that the half-gears 31 can be automatically squeezed and rotated during the installation of the outer frame 1. The snap-fit ​​part 35 is trapezoidal in shape and has protruding semi-cylinders on both sides. The two sides of the snap-fit ​​part 35 are arc surfaces, and the diameter of the arc surface is equal to the diameter of the half-gears 31. This ensures that the arc surface of the snap-fit ​​part 35 and the tooth surface of the half-gears 31 are precisely fitted, thereby avoiding jamming. The snap-fit ​​part 35 is slidably connected to the end of the guide rod 33 away from the fixed plate 34. A spring 32 is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 33. The spring 32 is a compression spring 32, which has good performance. With good elastic reset performance, one end of the spring 32 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the snap-fit ​​member 35, and the other end is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixing plate 34. In the initial state, the spring 32 is in a stretched state. At this time, the spring 32 applies a downward pulling force to the snap-fit ​​member 35, so that the arc surface of the snap-fit ​​member 35 is tightly fitted with the tooth surface of the half gear 31. At the same time, the half gear 31 is fixed in position and will not rotate. When the outer frame 1 is installed, the side of the mounting groove 13 will squeeze the half gear, which will then drive the half gear 31 to start rotating. When the half gear 31 rotates, its rack 14 will also gradually approach the half gear 31 and then mesh with it. At this time, the outer frame 1 drives the rack 14 to continue to move downward. When the half gear 31 rotates, and the tooth surface of the half gear 31 disengages from the locking member 35, the spring 32 will drive the locking member 35 to slide downward, thereby locking the half gear 31 and preventing it from rotating in the opposite direction. The spring 32 is equipped with damping buffer to avoid damage caused by excessive impact force. During this process, the cylindrical protrusion on the side of the locking member 35 will exert a downward pushing force on the half gear 31 under the tension of the spring 32, thereby causing the half gear 31 to rotate to offset the meshing gap between the rack 14 and the half gear 31. At this time, the outer frame 1 can be initially locked and positioned. The whole process can be completed entirely by the gravity of the outer frame 1 itself.

[0023] Adjustment component 4 is used for precise adjustment after the curtain wall unit is positioned. It can achieve multi-level fine-tuning in horizontal, vertical, and lateral directions to adjust errors during installation and ensure the installation accuracy of the curtain wall unit. It includes a center plate 41 and a sliding component 43. The center plate 41 is made of aluminum alloy profile, which is lightweight and high-strength. The sliding component 43 is slidably connected inside the center plate 41. The sliding component 43 has a parallelogram shape and is made of high-strength steel plate by stamping. It will not deform as a whole. The parallelogram structure has the advantage of fine adjustment and can adapt to different installation gaps to achieve Z-axis adjustment. The sliding component 43 and the center plate 41 The inner wall of the sliding plate 41 is connected to the sliding member 43, allowing the sliding member 43 to move forward, backward, left, and right. The inner wall of the center plate 41 has a sliding groove adapted to the sliding member 43, and the inner wall of the sliding groove is smoothed to ensure smooth sliding. Limiting grooves 44 are provided on both sides of the sliding member 43. The limiting grooves 44 are T-shaped along the length of the sliding member 43 to prevent the sliding plate 45 from falling off during sliding. A sliding plate 45 is slidably connected within the limiting groove 44. The shape of the sliding plate 45 is adapted to the inner wall of the limiting groove 44, allowing it to slide freely within the limiting groove 44. An adjusting bolt is rotatably connected to the surface of one sliding plate 45 via a rotating shaft. 46. ​​The other end of adjusting bolt 46 passes through the center plate 41 and is threaded to it. When adjusting bolt 46 is rotated, the sliding member 43 can be pushed back and forth by the sliding plate 45. Another sliding plate 45 is rotatably connected to a locking plate 42 via a rotating shaft. The other end of the locking plate 42 passes through the center plate 41 and is rotatably connected to it. The locking plate 42 can rotate freely around the rotating shaft and is locked to two fixing members 19, thereby limiting the back and forth sliding distance of the sliding member 43. When the sliding member 43 slides back and forth, the sliding member 43 can drive the outer frame 1 to move back and forth through the locking plate 42, thereby performing Y-axis adjustment. Adjusting bolt 48 penetrates the surface of sliding member 43. Adjusting bolt 48 is threadedly connected to sliding member 43. Adjusting bolt 48 can drive sliding member 43 to move left and right. Limiting ring 49 is fixedly connected to the surface of adjusting bolt 48. Limiting ring 49 is fixed to adjusting bolt 48 by welding. Limiting ring 49 is rotatably connected to center plate 41. Center plate 41 has an annular groove that matches limiting ring 49. This allows limiting ring 49 to rotate freely within the annular groove but not move axially. This ensures that adjusting bolt 48 only rotates, thereby driving sliding member 43 to slide left and right.

[0024] The sliding member 43 has two inclined surfaces with grooves 47, which are parallel to the inclined surfaces of the sliding member 43 and are used to install the slider 410. The inner wall of the groove 47 is smooth to reduce friction when the slider 410 slides. The slider 410 is slidably connected in the groove 47. The shape of the end of the slider 410 is adapted to the groove 47, and it can slide freely along the direction of the groove 47. The other end of the slider 410 passes through the center plate 41 and is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 411. The connecting plate 411 is welded to the slider 410 and can move synchronously with the slider 410. The upper end of the center plate 41 has a square hole, which allows the slider 410 to move freely in the front, back, left and right directions within the square hole. A threaded cylinder 412 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting plate 411. The threaded cylinder 412 communicates with the connecting plate 411. The inner wall of the threaded cylinder 412 is threaded with a stud 413, which is fixed by welding. Rotating the stud 413 allows it to move axially along the threaded cylinder 412, thereby adjusting the extension length of the support column 414. The other end of the stud 413 is rotatably connected to the support column 414 via a bearing. The support column 414 is cylindrical, with its end away from the stud 413 contacting the nearest mullion 11. An anti-slip rubber pad is fixedly connected to the end face of the support column 414 to increase the friction between it and the mullion 11, prevent the support column 414 from sliding, and buffer pressure to avoid damaging the surface of the mullion 11. By adjusting the extension length of the stud 413, the support force of the support column 414 on the mullion 11 can be adjusted, thereby assisting in the initial fixing of the curtain wall unit.

[0025] The leveling component 5 is used to adjust the level of the curtain wall unit to avoid tilting or unevenness. It includes a support block 51, a threaded cylinder 52, and a stud 53. There are two support blocks 51, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the center plate 41. The support blocks 51 are made of stainless steel, are rectangular, and have good load-bearing capacity, which can effectively support the weight of the curtain wall unit. The two ends of each support block 51 are fixedly connected to the threaded cylinder 52. The threaded cylinder 52 is fixed to the support block 51 by welding. The inner wall of the threaded cylinder 52 has an internal thread, and the threaded cylinder 52 is connected to the stud 53. The outer wall of the stud 53 has an external thread that matches the threaded cylinder 52. Rotating the stud 53 can adjust the movement of the stud 53 along the axial direction of the threaded cylinder 52, thereby adjusting the extension length of the support column 54. The end of stud 2 53 away from threaded cylinder 2 52 is rotatably connected to support column 2 54 via bearing. Support column 2 54 is cylindrical, and its end away from stud 2 53 is in contact with the nearest crossbar 11. The end face of support column 2 54 is also fixedly connected with a smooth pad to reduce friction and facilitate sliding. It only needs to support the outer frame 1.

[0026] A movable rod 8 is provided between the two support blocks 51. The movable rod 8 is made of stainless steel round rod, and its two ends are rotatably connected to the two support blocks 51 through universal joints. This design allows the movable rod 8 to adapt to the angle changes of the support blocks 51, while ensuring that the two support blocks 51 move synchronously. The movable rod 8 passes through the adjusting bolt 48 and is threadedly connected to it. The friction between the two is less than the friction between the adjusting bolt 48 and the sliding part 43, thus preventing the movable rod 8 from driving the adjusting bolt 48 to rotate. When the movable rod 8 is rotated, it can drive the adjusting bolt 48. The movement drives the center plate 41 to move left and right. At this time, the center plate 41 drives the mullion 18 to move left and right through the snap-fit ​​plate 42, thereby completing the X-axis movement of the outer frame 1. The length directions of the four support columns 54 are not coincident. The ends of the two support columns 54 with the lowest horizontal position are connected to the nearest embedded part 61 by bolts, thereby forming a fixed force support point. At this time, when it is necessary to precisely adjust the tilt of the outer frame 1, it is only necessary to rotate the studs 53 at the upper ends on both sides to raise or lower the corresponding angle of the outer frame 1, thereby completing the angle adjustment.

[0027] The fixing component 6 is used to firmly fix the curtain wall unit to the main building structure, ensuring that the curtain wall unit will not loosen or fall off after installation and guaranteeing safe use. It includes several embedded parts 61, made of stainless steel, which are pre-embedded in the beams and columns of the main building structure. The embedded parts 61 are fixed during concrete pouring, and the embedding depth conforms to building codes to ensure the load-bearing capacity of the embedded parts 61. The number of embedded parts 61 is determined according to the size and weight of the curtain wall unit, such as one embedded part 61 per square meter, evenly distributed to ensure uniform stress. Fixing blocks 62 are bolted to the surface of the embedded parts 61. The fixing blocks 62 are L-shaped, with one side fitting against the surface of the embedded part 61 and the other side fitting against the side of the crossbeam 11. Bolts pass through the fixing blocks 62 and the embedded parts 61, achieving a firm connection between the fixing blocks 62 and the embedded parts 61. A plug-in plate 63 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block 62. The plug-in plate 63 is T-shaped and communicates with the fixing block 62. After welding, the plug-in plate 63 is plugged into the mullion 11, thereby achieving the initial fixation of the curtain wall unit and the fixing block 62, preventing the curtain wall unit from shifting laterally. Each side of the fixing block 62 is connected to a fixing clamp 64 by bolts. One end of the fixing clamp 64 is attached to the fixing block 62, and the other end is attached to the side of the mullion 11. The bolts pass through the fixing clamp 64 and the fixing block 62, firmly connecting the fixing clamp 64 and the fixing block 62. The fixing clamp 64 is tightly attached to the side of the mullion 11, which can further fix the position of the mullion 11 and prevent the mullion 11 from sliding. Each fixing plate 34 is slidably connected to the fixing block 62 on the same horizontal plane. The side of the fixing plate 34 is provided with a sliding groove 47 that matches the fixing block 62. The fixing block 62 can slide freely in the sliding groove 47, which facilitates the positioning and adjustment of the curtain wall unit. After the positioning and adjustment are completed, the fixing plate 34 and the fixing block 62 are fixed by bolts to achieve further reinforcement.

[0028] The detection component 7 is used to detect the installation quality of the curtain wall unit in real time, including installation pressure, fit, and horizontal and vertical alignment. It promptly detects deviations during installation, facilitating timely adjustments and ensuring installation accuracy. It includes a thin-film pressure sensor 72 and a laser emitter 73. The thin-film pressure sensor 72 can be a small, highly sensitive, and accurate flexible thin-film sensor. A connector strip 71 is fixedly connected to one side of the thin-film pressure sensor 72. The upper end of the connector strip 71 is a breakable section, allowing for easy removal of the thin-film pressure sensor 72 after breakage. The connector strip 71 is firmly attached to the thin-film pressure sensor 72 using a special adhesive. The dimensions of the connector strip 71 are adapted to the slot 17 of the mullion 16. The connector strip 71 is inserted into the slot 17. Next, the thin-film pressure sensor 72 protrudes from the mullion 16, and the protruding part is equal to the gap reserved between the curtain walls. At this time, the force-bearing surface of the thin-film pressure sensor 72 is outward. During the installation of the outer frame 1, the pressure between the outer frame 1 and the adjacent curtain wall unit can be detected by the thin-film pressure sensor 72, so as to determine whether the outer frame 1 is horizontal. When there is a large difference in the pressure value at different positions of the thin-film pressure sensor 72, it indicates that the outer frame 1 is tilted. The place with low pressure value is not tightly attached, and the place with high pressure value indicates that it is under compression, which may damage the parts. It needs to be loosened appropriately. This can be adjusted by the leveling component 5 to ensure that the installation is horizontal and aligned. After the adjustment is completed, the plug strip 71 can be pulled out for easy use next time.

[0029] The laser emitter 73 is a red laser emitter, which has the advantages of precise positioning, high visibility, and easy observation. The laser emitter 73 is bonded to the inside of the seal 15 with removable adhesive, ensuring that the laser emitter 73 remains stable during use and can be quickly removed after use. The emission direction of the laser emitter 73 is set horizontally, parallel to the length direction of the mullion 11. Its laser receiving end is bonded to the adjacent curtain wall, which facilitates checking whether it is aligned. When the curtain wall unit is installed, the laser emitter 73 emits red laser light. The operator can judge the horizontal and verticality of the curtain wall unit by the signal from the laser receiving end. If the laser irradiation position is off, it means that the curtain wall unit is tilted. It is necessary to adjust the leveling component 5 in time and use the thin film pressure sensor 72 to level it until the laser irradiation position meets the preset requirements and the pressure value of each part of the pressure sensor remains consistent, thereby ensuring that the curtain wall unit is installed flat and accurately aligned.

[0030] In actual use, the embedded part 61 is pre-embedded in the beams and columns of the main building to ensure the accurate embedding depth and position of the embedded part 61. After installation, the fixing component 6 is installed on the embedded part 61. At this time, the bolts are not tightened and remain in a movable state. Then, the positioning component 3 is connected to the fixing component 6. Subsequently, the curtain wall unit is hoisted to the preset installation position using high-altitude hoisting equipment. The hoisting angle is adjusted so that the outer frame 1 of the curtain wall unit is parallel to the wall surface of the main building. At this time, the outer frame 1 is moved to rest against the positioning component 3, and the mounting groove 13 is aligned with the snap-fit ​​part 35 and the outer frame 1 is moved downward. The movement causes the snap-fit ​​35 to be inserted into the mounting slot 13. At this time, the spring 32 is in a stretched state. During this process, the half gear 31 is squeezed and begins to rotate and mesh with the rack 14. As the outer frame 1 continues to move downward, the half gear 31 continues to rotate until the snap-fit ​​35 is fully inserted. At this time, the crossbar 11 contacts the fixing plate 34. At the same time, the snap-fit ​​35, under the action of the spring 32, locks the two half gears 31, thereby completing the locking. This achieves the initial positioning of the curtain wall unit and avoids large displacement of the curtain wall unit. At the same time, the T-shaped plug-in plate 63 is plugged into the crossbar 11, which further improves the stability.

[0031] After initial positioning, adjustment component 4 and leveling component 5 can be installed. At this time, the distance between the outer frame 1 and the adjacent curtain wall is relatively far, thus reserving space for adjustment. Then, the laser emitter 73 and the thin-film pressure sensor 72 are activated. The laser emitter 73 emits red laser light. The operator judges the overall levelness and verticality by observing the signal at the receiving end. When the whole is tilted, the leveling component 5 can be used for horizontal adjustment. At this time, the operator uses a wrench to turn the stud at the higher end of the horizontal position to move it downward, thereby gradually reducing the tilt angle until the laser emitter 73 and the receiving end are on the same horizontal line. At this time, the horizontal adjustment is completed. During this process, the Z-axis of the curtain wall can be adjusted by turning the adjusting bolt 48 with a wrench. At this time, the sliding part 43 begins to slide horizontally left and right. During the movement of the sliding part 43, the two sliders 410 will slide obliquely with the limiting groove 44. Since the sliding part 43 is a parallelogram, its overall length remains unchanged during the movement. Then, through the two The connection end of the support rod 1 and the crossbeam 11 drives the outer frame 1 to move up and down for Z-axis adjustment. After the outer frame 1 is horizontal and the Z-axis adjustment is completed, the adjusting bolt 46 can be rotated to adjust the Y-axis. During this process, the adjusting bolt 46 will drive the sliding part 43 to move back and forth, thereby adjusting the Y-axis. After the adjustment is completed, the signal receiving end and the laser transmitter 73 are kept horizontal. Then, the moving rod 8 can be rotated by the wrench, thereby driving the center part to move left and right by the adjusting bolt 48, thereby adjusting the X-axis. During the process, the detection data of the thin film pressure sensor 72 is observed to ensure that the bonding pressure between the outer frame 1 and the adjacent curtain wall is within a reasonable range until the curtain wall unit is installed flat and accurately. At this time, if the position coefficients of the thin film pressure sensor 72 are consistent, the adjustment is completed. Then, the bolts at each position of the fixing component 6 can be tightened to complete the overall installation. Then, the plug strip 71 and the thin film pressure sensor 72 are taken out for continued use. At the same time, the gap is waterproofed by the sealing part 15.
