[0019] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but it should be understood that the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific implementation.
[0020] Unless expressly stated otherwise, throughout the specification and claims, the term "comprise" or variations such as "include" or "comprising", etc., will be understood to include the stated elements or components but not to exclude other elements or other components.
[0021] A movable tile inspection port, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes: an inspection port tile 1; a decorative stainless steel 2, the decorative stainless steel 2 is groove-shaped, including a top stainless steel 21, a side stainless steel 23 and a bottom stainless steel 22, the bottom stainless steel 22 is a steel plate with a hollow middle, the shape of the outer side of the bottom stainless steel 22 matches the shape of the outer side of the inspection port tile 1, the shape of the inner side of the top stainless steel 21 matches the shape of the outer side of the bottom stainless steel 22, and the side stainless steel 23 vertically connects the inner side of the top stainless steel 21 and the outer side of the bottom stainless steel 22; wherein, the side of the bottom stainless steel 22 close to the top stainless steel 21 is used to install the inspection port tile 1; a stainless steel back plate 3, the length of the stainless steel back plate 3 is less than the length of the outer side of the top stainless steel 21, and greater than the length of the inner side of the top stainless steel 21, the width of the stainless steel back plate 3 is less than the width of the outer side of the bottom stainless steel 22, and greater than the width of the inner side of the bottom stainless steel 22, and the stainless steel back plate 3 is connected to the other side of the bottom stainless steel 22 away from the top stainless steel 21.
[0022] Specifically, the top stainless steel 21 and bottom stainless steel 22 are located on two different levels. They are shaped like a "U" (U-shaped) character. The top of the stainless steel back plate 3 is flush with the top of the outer layer of the decorative stainless steel 2, while its bottom is slightly higher than the bottom of the outer layer and higher than the bottom of the inner layer. The left and right sides of the stainless steel back plate 3 are located in the middle of the inner layers of the decorative stainless steel 2. When the decorative stainless steel 2 and the stainless steel back plate 3 are connected, the top has a first groove 31, the bottom has a second groove 32, and the left and right sides have no grooves. The first groove 31 is deeper than the second groove 32. The first groove 31 and the second groove 32 located above and below the inspection port tile 1 cooperate to secure the inspection port tile 1 to the surrounding wall. During installation, a reserved gap 4 is provided between the wall tile at the top of the inspection port and the installed inspection port tile 1. The height of the reserved gap 4 is greater than the depth of the second groove 32. Because the second trough 32 is deeper than the first trough 31, when the bottom of the inspection port tile 1 contacts the lower wall tile during installation, the first trough 31 completely blocks the reserved gap 4, preventing the inspection port tile 1 from slipping out of the trough. To remove the inspection port tile 1, push the inspection port tile 1 upward. When the top of the facing stainless steel 2 contacts the upper wall tile, the second trough 32 can slide out of the reserved gap 4 between the bottom of the facing stainless steel 2 and the lower wall tile, thereby achieving removal of the inspection port tile 1.
[0023] As an optional implementation, the inspection port ceramic tile 1 and the stainless steel back plate 3 are bonded by structural adhesive.
[0024] Specifically, the facing stainless steel 2 and the stainless steel back plate 3 are fixed by welding. The inspection port tiles 1 can be bonded to the stainless steel back plate 3 or to the bottom stainless steel 22 and side stainless steel 23 of the facing stainless steel 2.
[0025] As an optional embodiment, the height of the side stainless steel 23 matches the thickness of the inspection port tile 1 .
[0026] Specifically, after the tile inspection port is installed on the wall, the inspection port tile 1 is at the same height as other surrounding wall tiles, without protrusion or depression.
[0027] As an optional embodiment, the inspection port tile 1 is a square structure with equal length and width.
[0028] Specifically, the inspection port tile 1 can be rectangular or in other shapes, as long as the shape is the same as that of other surrounding wall tiles, but is preferably square.
[0029] As an optional implementation, the upper end of the stainless steel back plate 3 is flush with the upper end of the top stainless steel 21 , and the lower end of the stainless steel back plate 3 is higher than the lower end of the top stainless steel 21 .
[0030] Specifically, the upper end refers to the end that contacts the upper wall tiles after the tile inspection port is installed on the wall. The lower end refers to the end that contacts the lower wall tiles after the tile inspection port is installed on the wall. The lower end of the stainless steel back plate 3 is higher than the lower end of the top stainless steel 21 and lower than the side stainless steel 23 at the lower end. A first groove 31 is formed above the tile inspection port, with a width equal to the four sides of the top stainless steel 21, and a second groove 32 is formed below the tile inspection port, with a width less than the sides of the top stainless steel 21. There are no grooves on the left and right sides of the tile inspection port.
[0031] As an optional embodiment, there is a trough body between the stainless steel back plate 3 and the decorative stainless steel 2, and the trough body includes a first trough body 31 located at the top end of the inspection port tile 1, and a second trough body 32 located at the bottom end of the inspection port tile 1. The first trough body 31 and the second trough body 32 can fix the inspection port tile 1 on the surrounding wall tiles.
[0032] Specifically, the inspection port tile 1 is secured to the surrounding wall surface by the cooperation of the first groove 31 and the second groove 32 located above and below the inspection port tile 1. During installation, a pre-reserved groove for the tile inspection port is provided in the wall tiles. After the inspection port is installed, a gap 4 is left between the top wall tile and the top of the inspection port tile 1. The height of the gap 4 is greater than the depth of the second groove 32. Because the second groove 32 is less deep than the first groove 31, when the bottom of the inspection port tile 1 contacts the lower wall tile during installation, the first groove 31 completely blocks the gap 4, preventing the inspection port tile 1 from slipping out of the groove. To remove the inspection port tile 1, the inspection port tile 1 is pushed upward. When the top of the facing stainless steel 2 contacts the upper wall tile, the second groove 32 can slide out of the gap 4 between the bottom of the facing stainless steel 2 and the lower wall tile, allowing the inspection port tile 1 to be removed.
[0033] As an optional implementation, the hollowed-out area in the middle of the bottom stainless steel 22 is a square.
[0034] Specifically, the hollowing can be in various shapes, as long as it can be connected to the stainless steel back plate 3.
[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, a double-layered grooved stainless steel 2 is designed, and a stainless steel backing plate 3 is connected to the back of the stainless steel 2. This connected structure can be used to install the inspection port tile 1. The top of the stainless steel backing plate 3 is flush with the top of the outer layer of the stainless steel 2, and the bottom is slightly higher than the bottom of the outer layer and higher than the bottom of the inner layer of the stainless steel 2. The left and right sides of the stainless steel backing plate 3 are respectively located in the middle of the left and right inner layers of the stainless steel 2. After the stainless steel 2 and the stainless steel backing plate 3 are connected, the top of the stainless steel 2 has a first groove 31 and the bottom has a second groove 32. There are no grooves on the left and right sides. The first groove 31 is deeper than the second groove 32. The first groove 31 and the second groove 32 located above and below the inspection port tile 1 can be fixed to the surrounding wall. During installation, a reserved gap 4 is left between the wall tiles at the top of the inspection port and the inspection port tile 1. The height of the reserved gap 4 is greater than the depth of the second groove 32. Because the second trough 32 is deeper than the first trough 31, when the bottom of the inspection port tile 1 contacts the lower wall tile during installation, the first trough 31 completely blocks the reserved gap 4, preventing the inspection port tile 1 from slipping out of the trough. To remove the inspection port tile 1, push the inspection port tile 1 upward. When the top of the decorative stainless steel 2 contacts the upper wall tile, the second trough 32 can slide out of the reserved gap 4 between the bottom of the decorative stainless steel 2 and the lower wall tile, thereby removing the inspection port tile 1. Using the decorative stainless steel 2, the tile inspection port is opened and closed by lifting and lowering, resulting in an aesthetically pleasing design, easy opening and closing, and convenient on-site construction and finishing.
