Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steel grid roofs, in particular to a structural joint at the turning point of a steel grid that can take into account skylights. Background Technique

[0002] Space steel grid structures are increasingly used in the construction industry. The steel grid system can effectively reduce the total structural thickness while achieving large spans, which is beneficial to the realization of the indoor architectural effect. At the same time, due to the lighting requirements of large-span steel grid roofs, architects usually grade the roof at different elevations and set skylights at the drop-off points of each level to achieve a progressive facade effect and meet the lighting requirements. Therefore, how to design the steel grid structure at the turning point to take into account the skylight and structural stress has become the key to this structural system.

[0003] A common turning method in space steel grids is to turn both the upper and lower chords of the steel grid and then connect them. The width of the turning section is usually the same as the thickness of the steel grid, resulting in too many structural members at this point, making it appear rather bulky. At the same time, it leads to a large number of skylight keels and has a significant adverse impact on the lighting of the skylight. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a structural joint at the turning point of a steel grid that can take into account skylights in view of the deficiencies of the prior art.

And it takes into account the practice of curtain wall skylights, and the skylight keels can also be greatly optimized, and higher architectural effects and lighting can be obtained.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is: a structural joint at the turning point of a steel grid that can take into account skylights, including an upper roof grid and a lower roof grid. There is a vertical rod connecting the two at the drop-off point between the upper roof grid and the lower roof grid. The upper end of the vertical rod is directly or indirectly connected to the upper and lower chord rods of the upper roof grid, and the lower end of the vertical rod is directly or indirectly connected to the upper and lower chord rods of the lower roof grid.

[0010] Preferably, the vertical rod is provided with plug weld holes facilitating the welding and fixing of the stiffening ribs.

[0011] Preferably, the vertical rod is provided with an external insertion plate whose elevation is aligned with the center line of the grid chord of the grid structure, and the external insertion plate is an isosceles trapezoid.

[0012] Preferably, when the upper roof grid or the lower roof grid is an orthogonal square grid, the upper and lower chord rods of the upper roof grid or the lower roof grid are connected to the vertical rod through the external insertion plate.

[0013] Preferably, when the upper roof grid or the lower roof grid is a square pyramid grid with square layout, the upper chord rod of the upper roof grid or the lower roof grid is connected to the vertical rod through the external insertion plate, and the lower chord rod of the upper roof grid or the lower roof grid is connected to two adjacent vertical rods through four diagonal rods.

[0014] Preferably, when the upper roof grid or the lower roof grid is a square pyramid grid with square layout, the grid unit of the upper roof grid or the lower roof grid close to the vertical rod is converted into an orthogonal square grid.

[0015] Preferably, the vertical rod is further provided with a diagonal brace supporting the upper chord rod of the upper roof grid or the lower roof grid.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: A structural node at the turning point of a steel grid structure that can accommodate a skylight includes an upper roof grid and a lower roof grid. At the drop between the upper roof grid and the lower roof grid, there is a vertical rod connecting the two.

Specific implementation mode

[0027] The following further elaborates on the utility model in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, and does not limit the implementation scope of the utility model thereto.

[0028] Embodiment 1.

[0029] As Figures 1 to 6 shown, a structural node at the turning point of a steel grid that can accommodate a skylight in this embodiment includes an upper roof grid 1 and a lower roof grid 2. A vertical rod 3 connecting the two is provided at the drop between the upper roof grid 1 and the lower roof grid 2. The upper end of the vertical rod 3 is directly or indirectly connected to the upper and lower chord members of the upper roof grid 1, and the lower end of the vertical rod 3 is directly or indirectly connected to the upper and lower chord members of the lower roof grid 2. The array pitch of the vertical rods 3 is equal to the module of the skylight, and a horizontal keel 4 supporting the skylight is welded between the vertical rods 3.

[0030] The upper roof grid 1 and the lower roof grid 2 are both two-layer orthogonal grids, and the vertical rod 3 is provided with an external plug-in plate 7 whose elevation is opposite to the center line of the grid chord. The upper and lower chords of the upper roof grid 1 are connected to the upper end of the vertical rod 3 through the external plug-in plate 7, and the upper and lower chords of the lower roof grid 2 are connected to the lower end of the vertical rod 3 through the external plug-in plate 7. During construction, a groove is cut in the middle of the upper and lower chords, and the external plug-in plate 7 is inserted into the groove and welded. In order to enhance the support of the vertical rod 3 to the upper roof grid 1 or the lower roof grid 2, the vertical rod 3 is also provided with a diagonal brace 8 supporting the upper chord of the upper roof grid 1 or the lower roof grid 2.

[0031] In addition, in order to keep out rain, an upper roof edge chord 9 and an outer support rod 10 supporting the upper roof edge chord 9 are provided on the side of the upper end of the vertical rod 3 facing away from the upper roof grid 1. The upper roof edge chord 9 is a coaxial extension of the upper chord of the upper roof grid 1.

[0032] When operating the roof grid and skylight nodes of this embodiment, the upper roof grid 1 and the lower roof grid 2 are first welded separately in the factory; then the vertical rod 3 is divided into an upper and lower section, the upper section of the vertical rod 3 is welded to the upper roof grid 1, and the horizontal keel 4 connected to the upper section of the vertical rod 3 is welded, and the lower section of the vertical rod 3 is welded to the lower roof grid 2, and the horizontal keel 4 connected to the lower section of the vertical rod 3 is welded; the third step is to hoist the upper and lower roof grids welded in the second step to the roof respectively, so that the upper and lower sections of the vertical rod 3 are aligned and welded. Here, in order to facilitate the alignment or adjustment of the upper and lower sections of the vertical rod 3, the vertical rod 3 in the second step can only be spot welded with the upper and lower roof grids and the horizontal keel 4; the fourth step is to assemble the skylight after all welding is completed.

[0033] The curtain wall skylight is installed on the vertical rod 3 and the horizontal keel 4. The vertical rod 3 of this embodiment adopts a rectangular tube. After the assembly welding is completed, along the vertical direction, in order to enhance the strength of the vertical rod 3, the vertical rod 3 is provided with stiffening ribs 5 at the welding positions corresponding to other rods and in the middle of the vertical rod 3, that is, the middle of the vertical rod 3 and the positions corresponding to the vertical rod 3 where the outer plug-in plate 7, the diagonal brace 8, the upper roof chord 9, and the outer brace 10 are welded are all provided with stiffening ribs 5.

[0034] Because the stiffening ribs 5 are inserted from both ends of the vertical rod 3, in order to facilitate the positioning of the stiffening ribs 5 in the vertical rod 3, the stiffening ribs 5 include a stiffening tube 51 that can be inserted into the vertical rod 3 and a stiffening plate 52 welded in the stiffening tube 51, and the vertical rod 3 is provided with a plug welding hole 6 for convenient welding and fixing of the stiffening ribs 5; in order to enable the stiffening ribs 5 to play a reinforcing role, the outer wall of the stiffening ribs 5 is preferably able to fit the inner wall of the vertical rod 3.

[0035] Embodiment 2.

[0036] As Figure 7 shown, when the upper roof space frame 1 or the lower roof space frame 2 is a square pyramid space frame placed upright, two methods can be used to connect the upper roof space frame 1 or the lower roof space frame 2 with the vertical rod 3. One method is that the upper chord of the upper roof space frame 1 or the lower roof space frame 2 is connected to the vertical rod 3 through the external insertion plate 7, and the lower chord of the upper roof space frame 1 or the lower roof space frame 2 is connected to two adjacent vertical rods 3 through four diagonal rods; the other method is that the space frame unit of the upper roof space frame 1 or the lower roof space frame 2 close to the vertical rod 3 is converted into an orthogonal square grid, and then the connection method of Embodiment 1 is adopted.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and for the convenience of describing the technical solutions, the front, back, left, right, up, middle, down and other orientations used are based on the attached drawings, rather than limiting the protection scope of the present invention.
