[0010] Preferably, an extension plate is arranged at the bottom of the notch, and a first groove is arranged inside the extension plate. The first groove can accommodate the protrusion.

[0011] Preferably, the length of the extension plate is slightly shorter than the length of the groove.

[0012] Preferably, when the wall panels are connected through the buckle, the bottom of the first groove does not fit with the protrusion.

[0013] The beneficial effect of the utility model is:

[0014] (1) With the present utility model, the wall panels are connected by means of a locking mechanism. Compared with the traditional installation method, the use of a locking connection can reduce the time consumed during the installation of the wall panels and improve the efficiency of installing the wall panels. Moreover, the locking connection makes one side fit closely, reducing the gaps between the wall panels.

[0015] (2) With the present utility model, the locking mechanism is provided with a flange and a notch. The flange and the notch can be connected to each other. The notch can accommodate the flange, and the cooperation between the notch and the flange can connect the wall panels and prevent the wall panels from falling off. The flange is trapezoidal. When installing the wall panels, the flange can be installed on one side of the notch without being completely horizontal with the notch, reducing the difficulty of assembling the flange and preventing the flange from being damaged during the installation process.

[0016] (3) With the present utility model, a groove is provided at the bottom of the flange, and an extension plate is provided at the bottom of the notch. When the wall panels are connected by the locking mechanism, the groove can fit with the extension plate. A protrusion is provided on the surface of the groove, and a groove is provided on the surface of the extension plate. The protrusion can cooperate with the groove to limit the range of movement between the wall panels. And when the groove and the protrusion cooperate, the bottom is not completely fitted. The length of the extension plate is less than the amplitude that can accommodate the thermal expansion of the wall panels when the temperature is relatively high, preventing the wall panels from cracking. The extension plate and the groove cooperate with each other to prevent gaps from being generated between the wall panels at low temperatures, and water vapor from entering the interior of the wall panels through the gaps between the wall panels, affecting the quality of the wall panels.

[0019] In order to facilitate understanding of the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. Embodiment 1

[0020] As Figure 1 shown, a simple locking mechanism for grooving during the installation of wall panels includes wall panels.

[0021] The wall panels are provided with locking mechanisms at the edges. Multiple wall panels are connected and fixed through the locking mechanisms. A certain gap is provided at the connection between the locking mechanisms. After the wall panels are assembled, one side fits closely with each other.

[0022] In this embodiment, the buckle includes a flange 11 and a notch 21. The wall panel is placed horizontally. The flange 11 is provided on one side of the wall panel in the horizontal direction, and the notch 21 is provided on the other side of the wall panel in the horizontal direction. No buckle is provided at the top of the wall panel.

[0023] During the installation process of the wall panels, multiple wall panels are horizontally connected to each other through the cooperation between the flange 11 and the notch 21. The wall panels are connected to the ground, ceiling or other wall panels in the vertical direction.

[0024] Both the flange 11 and the notch 21 are provided at the edge of the wall panel. The wall panel is divided into a front side and a back side. After the wall panels are installed, the front sides are in surface contact with each other, and there are only gaps at the contact areas. There is a certain length of gap at the back contact area after the wall panels are installed.

[0025] The structure of the flange 11 is trapezoidal. The structure of the notch 21 is the same as that of the flange 11. The notch 21 can accommodate the flange 11. A fillet is provided at the edge of the notch 21 near the top of the front side, which can assist the installation of the flange 11 into the notch 21.

[0026] A groove 12 is provided on one side of the wall panel where the flange 11 is located. The groove 12 extends from the bottom of the flange 11 into the interior of the wall panel. A protrusion 121 is provided inside the groove 12, and the protrusion 121 is parallel to the plane of the wall panel. An extension plate 22 is provided on one side of the wall panel where the notch 21 is located. The extension plate 22 extends from the bottom of the notch 21 to the outside of the wall panel. A groove 221 is provided on the side of the extension plate 22 close to the interior of the wall panel. The position of the groove 221 on the extension plate 22 is the same as the position of the protrusion 121 on the groove 12. During the installation process, the groove 221 can accommodate the protrusion 121.

[0027] The length of the extension plate 22 is slightly shorter than the length of the groove 12. The length of the protrusion 121 is shorter than the depth of the groove 221. After the wall panel is installed, the bottom of the groove 221 is not in contact with the protrusion 121, and the side of the groove 221 away from the notch 21 is in contact with the protrusion 221.

[0028] When installing the wall panel, the wall panel is connected and fixed through the cooperation between the flange 11 and the groove 12. A fillet is provided on the side of the groove 12 close to the wall panel, which can assist the cooperation between the flange 11 and the groove 12. The time consumed during the installation process of the wall panel is reduced. After the installation is completed, the flange 11 and the groove 12 are connected to each other, the gap between the wall panels is reduced, and water vapor is prevented from entering the back of the wall panel.

[0029] A groove 12 is provided at the bottom of the flange 11, and an extension plate 22 is provided at the bottom of the notch 21. When multiple wall panels are connected, the extension plate 22 can fit with the groove 12. The protrusion 121 on the surface of the groove 12 is connected to the groove 221 on the extension plate 22, which can limit the movement range between the wall panels. And after the wall panels are installed, the groove 221 and the protrusion 121 are not completely fitted, and there is a certain space at the bottom of the groove 221. The length of the groove 12 is greater than the length of the extension plate 22, and the surface of the groove 12 is not connected to the extension plate 22 after the wall panels are installed. When the temperature is relatively high, the wall panels will expand due to heat. At this time, the gap between the groove 12 and the extension plate 22 can accommodate the lateral volume of the wall panels expanding when the temperature rises, and the gap between the protrusion 121 and the groove 221 can accommodate the longitudinal volume of the wall panels expanding at the connection. When in a low-temperature state, the flange 11 and the notch 21 cooperate with each other, and the protrusion 121 and the groove 221 cooperate with each other to prevent water vapor from entering the wall panels through the gap at the connection of the wall panels and affecting the quality of the wall panels.

[0030] In this embodiment, the gap at the connection between the wall panels can use a waterproof elastic material to reduce the wear when the flange 11 and the notch 21 are connected. At the same time, it can prevent cracks from occurring between the wall panels and prevent water vapor from entering the wall panels through the gap at the connection of the wall panels and affecting the quality of the wall panels.

[0031] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope claimed by the present invention. The scope claimed by the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
