[0023] See Figure 1-Figure 4 , the utility model provides a technical solution:
[0024] A standard caliper for a zigzag curtain wall keel arrangement is characterized by comprising a first fixing plate 1, a second fixing plate 2, a third fixing plate 3, and a secondary ruler. The third fixing plate 3 is hingedly connected to one end of the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 at both ends via hinges. The other end of the first fixing plate 1 and the other end of the second fixing plate 2 are each provided with a plurality of holes 13. The holes 13 on the first fixing plate 1 mate with the holes 13 on the second fixing plate 2 and are fixedly connected via connectors. The first, second, and third fixing plates 1, 2, and 3 form a triangle. Slide rails 16 are provided on the outer sides of the first and second fixing plates 1, 2, and a secondary ruler slidably mounted on the slide rails 16. Fasteners are provided on the secondary ruler to secure the secondary ruler to the slide rails 16. The first fixing plate 1 serves as one of the main supporting parts of the caliper. The third fixing plate 3 is connected to the first and second fixing plates 1, 2 at both ends, and the hinged connection is achieved, providing the entire caliper structure with a certain degree of flexibility and adaptability. The secondary ruler slides on a slide rail 16 on the outside of the first and second fixed plates 1, 2 for precise measurement and positioning. The first and second fixed plates 1, 2 are provided with a number of holes 13 that interact with each other and are fixedly connected by connectors, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the caliper structure. The slide rail 16 is set on the outside of the first and second fixed plates 1, 2. The secondary ruler slides on the slide rail 16 and is fixed to a specific position on the slide rail 16 by fasteners to achieve precise measurement. The triangular structure composed of the first, second, and third fixed plates 1, 2, has excellent stability and load-bearing capacity. The design of the standard caliper makes the measurement process more standardized and standardized, reduces the impact of human error, and improves measurement accuracy. Using a standard caliper, the measurement and positioning of the zigzag curtain wall keel layout can be completed quickly and accurately, saving construction time and improving construction efficiency. Accurate measurement and positioning help ensure the accuracy and consistency of the zigzag curtain wall keel layout, thereby improving the stability and aesthetics of the entire curtain wall system. By adjusting the angle between the third fixing plate 3 and the first and second fixing plates 1 and 2, as well as the position of the secondary ruler on the slide rail 16, the standard caliper can adapt to the layout requirements of zigzag curtain wall studs of different shapes and sizes. The standard caliper's compact and lightweight design makes it easy to carry to the construction site. Furthermore, its simple and quick operation reduces the difficulty and labor intensity of construction workers.
[0025] In some embodiments, the secondary ruler includes a kit 6, a first fixed block 4, a second fixed block 5, a branch 11, a barb 9, and a spring 10. The first fixed block 4 is fixedly connected to one end of the kit 6, and the branch 11 is slidably arranged in the other end of the kit 6. The branch 11 is fixedly connected to the second fixed block 5. The barb 9 and spring 10 that cooperate with the kit 6 are arranged in the branch 11. The kit 6, the first fixed block 4, and the second fixed block 5 are all provided with a slide groove 12 that cooperates with the slide rail 16, and a fastener is provided on the kit 6. Among them, the kit 6 serves as the main part of the secondary ruler, with one end fixedly connected to the first fixed block 4 and the other end having the branch 11 slidably arranged inside. This design makes the movement of the secondary ruler on the slide rail 16 more stable and precise; a limiting groove 8 is provided in the middle of the branch 11, and the limiting groove 8 includes a barb 9 and a spring 10; the barb 9 is fixedly connected to the middle of the limiting groove 8 near the end of the second fixed plate. The branch 11 is fixedly connected to the second fixed block 5, and is provided with a barb 9 and a spring 10 that cooperate with the kit 6 inside. This structure enables the branch 11 to automatically expand and contract when subjected to external force; when the second fixed block 5 is stretched in the same side direction, the spring 10 is in a stretched state, and conversely, when the spring 10 is released, it is in a contracted state, and is fixed by cooperating with the kit 6 through the barb 9. The kit 6, the first fixed block 4 and the second fixed block 5 are all provided with a slide groove 12 that cooperates with the slide rail 16. This design ensures that the secondary ruler can slide stably on the slide rail 16 and can adjust its position as needed. Fasteners are provided on the kit 6 to fix the secondary ruler at a specific position on the slide rail 16. This design makes the measurement and positioning process more convenient and quick. The sliding design of the secondary ruler makes the measurement process more accurate. By adjusting the position of the branch 11 in the kit 6, slight adjustments to the arrangement of the fold line curtain wall keels can be achieved, thereby improving the measurement accuracy. The sliding grooves on the kit 6, the first fixed block 4 and the second fixed block 5 are closely matched with the slide rail 16 to ensure the stability of the secondary ruler during the sliding process. This stability helps to reduce shaking and errors during the measurement process. The design of the barb 9 and the spring 10 inside the branch 11 makes the fixing and releasing process of the secondary ruler easier. The operator only needs to gently push the second fixed block 5 to achieve fixing or release, without the use of additional tools or equipment. The design of the secondary ruler enables it to adapt to the layout requirements of broken line curtain wall keels of different shapes and sizes. By adjusting the position of the secondary ruler on the slide rail 16 and the length of the branch 11, accurate measurement and positioning of various complex shapes can be achieved. Using a secondary ruler with this design can greatly save construction time.
[0026] In some embodiments, the sliding groove is a dovetail groove 12. The dovetail groove 12 not only increases structural stability but also helps enhance the overall stability of the curtain wall keel. When the caliper is tightly coupled to the curtain wall keel, it effectively disperses and resists external forces, preventing deformation or damage to the keel. It also provides precise guidance for the sliding connection of the secondary ruler, improving the accuracy of the folded-line curtain wall keel arrangement.
[0027] In some embodiments, scales are provided on both the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2. These scales are used to accurately measure and locate the position and size of the curtain wall keels. The provision of scales makes the measurement results more intuitive and accurate, facilitating subsequent installation and layout work for construction workers.
[0028] In some embodiments, the hinge includes a first bolt 7 and a first nut that cooperates with the first bolt 7. One end of the first fixing plate 1 is connected to one end of the third fixing plate 3 via the first bolt 7 and the first nut, and the other end of the third fixing plate 3 is connected to one end of the second fixing plate 2 via the first bolt 7 and the first nut. The cooperation between the first bolt 7 and the first nut generates a strong friction force through the pre-tightening force, thereby ensuring a stable connection between the fixing plates. The bolt connection is detachable, which facilitates adjustment or maintenance of the connection parts when necessary, thereby increasing the flexibility of the structure. When parts need to be replaced or upgraded, the bolt connection can be easily disassembled and reinstalled, reducing the difficulty and cost of replacing parts. Compared with connection methods such as welding, the bolt connection does not require complicated construction equipment and processes, has a short construction period, and reduces the difficulty and cost of construction.
[0029] In some embodiments, the fastener includes a second bolt 14. The sleeve 6 is provided with a threaded hole that mates with the second bolt 14. The second bolt 14 is disposed in the threaded hole, with its end resting on the slide rail 16. The second bolt 14 is inserted into the threaded hole in the sleeve 6 and is tightly engaged with the threaded hole by rotating the bolt. This mechanical connection offers high strength and stability, capable of withstanding significant forces and vibration, ensuring that the connected components do not loosen or fall off during use. During assembly, if a component is found to be misaligned or requires adjustment, the bolt can be easily loosened, fine-tuned, and then re-tightened. This flexibility gives bolted connections significant advantages during assembly and adjustment.
[0030] In some embodiments, the connecting member includes a third bolt 15 and a third nut that cooperates with the third bolt 15. The third bolt 15 passes through the holes 13 in the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 and is connected to the third nut. When the fixing plates need to be replaced or adjusted, the bolt can be easily removed by simply loosening the nut, avoiding the additional cost of replacing the entire assembly.
[0031] In some embodiments, two sets of secondary rulers are provided on the first fixing plate 1, and one set of secondary rulers is provided on the second fixing plate 2. This facilitates accurate measurement and positioning of curtain wall studs. The sliding connection of the secondary rulers also increases the versatility and adaptability of the caliper, allowing the measurement range and accuracy to be adjusted according to actual needs. In the fixed state, the secondary rulers cannot slide when fixed to the first fixing plate 1 or the second fixing plate 2.
