Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of building exterior wall decoration engineering, and in particular to a wind chime curtain wall with a hidden limiting structure. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of construction technology and people's increasing pursuit of architectural aesthetics, the design of building facades has become increasingly important in contemporary architectural practice. Building facades not only carry the functional needs of buildings but also embody the expression of cultural, artistic, and social values. Wind chime curtain walls, as a new type of curtain wall, are gradually gaining attention among numerous architectural decorative elements for their unique visual effects and pleasant sound characteristics. Wind chime curtain walls are typically composed of multiple metal wind chime blades that sway in the breeze, creating a dynamic effect that creates a lively atmosphere for the building and makes it stand out among many stable structures.
[0003] However, there are some problems with the existing wind chime curtain wall technology. On the one hand, the structural design of the existing wind chime curtain wall may not be reasonable, resulting in high installation and maintenance costs. For example, the metal wind chime blades of the wind chime curtain wall are generally connected in series. When one or more blades need to be replaced, they need to be completely removed and reinstalled, and the installation and disassembly process is very complicated. The metal wind chime blades are generally made of stainless steel, which has a high density. After multiple stainless steel wind chime blades are inserted into the core shaft, the core shaft is heavy, which is very laborious during installation. There is also the risk of falling objects from high altitude, which poses a great safety hazard.
[0004] On the other hand, the blades in existing wind chime curtain walls are mostly secured to the steel cables using clamps and other structures. These retaining structures and clamps are often exposed, which not only affects the appearance but also easily accumulates dust and damages, making the installation process complicated. Furthermore, the durability and stability of some wind chime curtain walls need to be improved, as they are easily damaged by inclement weather.
[0005] Therefore, we made improvements to this problem and proposed a wind chime curtain wall with a limited structure and hidden structure. Utility Model Content
