Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel structure roofing technology, specifically a steel structure roofing connector. Background Technology

[0002] Steel structures are structures made of steel materials and are one of the main types of building structures. The structure is mainly composed of steel beams, steel columns, steel trusses, and other components made of shaped steel and steel plates. These components are typically connected by welds, bolts, or rivets. Due to their light weight and simple construction, steel structures are widely used in large factories, stadiums, high-rise buildings, bridges, and other fields. The roofs of steel structures are often connected using special connectors to provide sufficient tightness, enabling the roof to function as a rain and snow protector.

[0003] An investigation revealed a Chinese utility model patent (publication number: CN219060626U) disclosing a steel structure roof connector. Its general description includes a top beam and multiple roof panels. Multiple vertical beams are fixed to both sides of the top beam, and multiple horizontal beams are horizontally intersecting and fixed to the top of the vertical beams. Multiple roof panels are evenly fixed to the tops of the vertical and horizontal beams. The connector also includes: a top frame fixed to the top of the top beam; two connecting plates fixedly connected by bent plates and located on top of the top frame; a connecting structure disposed at the connection between the connecting plates and the roof panels; and a fixing structure disposed between the horizontal beams and the connecting structure for connecting the horizontal beams and the connecting structure. This utility model provides a steel structure roof connector that facilitates connection to the top of a steel structure roof, offering better adaptability, preventing damage to the roof and beams, increasing safety, and facilitating subsequent replacement.

[0004] While the aforementioned technical solution can provide roof support and prevent roof swaying during wind and snow by combining roof panels with top and vertical beams, and connects the connecting plates to the roof panels using a connecting structure, and provides structural stability through a fixed framework between the measuring and connecting structures, the construction process relies solely on the movable rod in the middle of the connector for structural stability. During heavy winds and snow, the rod will be impacted and sway, potentially even breaking. Furthermore, the movable rod connection only allows for swaying in one direction; when impacted in another direction, the rod may be subjected to shear force and bend, leading to connection failure and compromising the long-term use of the roof.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a steel structure roof connector to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention aims to provide a steel structure roof connector that is simple in structure and has good performance.

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a steel structure roof connector that solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0009] A steel structure roof connector includes a profiled plate with a threaded groove inside, a screw rotatably connected inside the threaded groove, and multiple connecting components provided at the top of the profiled plate.

[0010] The connecting assembly includes a base fixedly connected to the top of the irregular plate. The inner wall of the base has a slot, and the side wall of the base has a transverse groove. The top of the irregular plate is provided with a roof. A bracket is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the roof. A fixing seat is fixedly connected to the end of the bracket. A spring is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing seat. A plug rod is fixedly connected to the end of the spring. A groove is provided inside the bracket. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the groove. A bent rod is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft. Multiple transverse rods for inserting into the transverse groove are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bent rod.

[0011] A further improvement of the present invention is that: a plurality of A-blocks are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the base, a B-block that cooperates with the A-blocks is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the card holder, and a card sleeve for engaging with the B-block is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the A-block.

[0012] A further improvement of this utility model is that: a main beam is provided at the bottom of the irregular plate, and a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the top of the main beam, and the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the end of the screw.

[0013] A further improvement of the present invention is that: a support frame is symmetrically and fixedly connected to the top of the irregular plate; a support shaft is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support frame; a secondary beam for auxiliary support is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the support shaft; a beam seat is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the roof at the location corresponding to the secondary beam; and the secondary beam is inserted into the beam seat.

[0014] A further improvement of this utility model is that: spring steel strips are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting plate, and the ends of the spring steel strips are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the irregular plate.

[0015] A further improvement of this utility model is that: a water guide channel for drainage is provided on the outer wall of the roof, and an eaves gutter for guiding and discharging rainwater is fixedly connected to the side wall of the roof.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the irregular plate connected by the screw thread on the outer wall can be height adjusted according to the actual site conditions. By cooperating with the base and the card seat inside the connecting component, when the two slide into the card seat, the insertion rod set on the card seat is inserted into the slot opened on the inner wall of the base for quick insertion, so that the insertion limit is achieved in one direction. By sliding in, the bent rod is driven to rotate on the rotating shaft, so that the cross bar on the bent rod is inserted into the cross groove of the base, so that the insertion limit is also achieved in the other direction. This can quickly ensure the connection of the connection structure and provide sufficient tightness for the connection between the roof and the steel structure. Attached Figure Description

In some instances, methods, means, and elements well-known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail in order to highlight the main points of this application.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-5 This utility model provides two technical solutions:

[0027] Example 1:

[0028] A steel structure roof connector includes a profiled plate 1, a threaded groove 101 is provided inside the profiled plate 1, a screw 102 is rotatably connected inside the threaded groove 101, and a plurality of connecting components 2 are provided on the top of the profiled plate 1.

[0029] The connecting component 2 includes a base 201 fixedly connected to the top of the irregular plate 1. The inner wall of the base 201 has a slot 202 and the side wall of the base 201 has a transverse groove 203. The top of the irregular plate 1 is provided with a roof 204. The inner wall of the roof 204 is fixedly connected to a card seat 205. The end of the card seat 205 is fixedly connected to a fixed seat 206. The end of the fixed seat 206 is fixedly connected to a spring 207. The end of the spring 207 is fixedly connected to an insertion rod 208. The inside of the card seat 205 has a groove 209. The inner wall of the groove 209 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 210. The outer wall of the rotating shaft 210 is rotatably connected to a bent rod 211. The outer wall of the bent rod 211 is fixedly connected to a plurality of transverse rods 212 for inserting into the transverse groove 203.

[0030] Multiple A-blocks 213 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the base 201, and B-blocks 214 that cooperate with the A-blocks 213 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the card holder 205. A card sleeve 215 for engaging with the B-blocks 214 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the A-blocks 213.

[0031] Specifically, the irregular plate 1 connected by the thread on the outer wall of the screw 102 can adapt to different height usage scenarios. By inserting the base 201 of the connecting component 2 into the card holder 205, the steel structure can be quickly connected to the roof 204. When the card holder 205 is inserted into the base 201, the insertion rod 208 on the fixed seat 206 at the end of the card holder 205 is inserted into the horizontal groove 203 on the side wall of the base 201. When inserted, the inner wall of the card holder 205 will drive the bent rod 211 to rotate on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 210, and then the horizontal rod 212 fixedly connected to its outer wall will be inserted into the horizontal groove 203, completing the insertion limit in multiple directions. After the insertion is completed, the card sleeve 215 on the outer wall of the sliding A card block 213 and the B card block 214 on the outer wall of the card holder 205 are slidably engaged, and then the two side walls are further welded to improve the connection tightness.

[0032] Example 2:

[0033] Based on Example 1:

[0034] A main beam 103 is provided at the bottom of the irregular plate 1, and a connecting plate 104 is fixedly connected to the top of the main beam 103. The connecting plate 104 is fixedly connected to the end of the screw 102.

[0035] A support frame 105 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the irregular plate 1. A support shaft 106 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 105. A secondary beam 107 for auxiliary support is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the support shaft 106. A beam seat 108 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the roof 204 at the location corresponding to the secondary beam 107, and the secondary beam 107 is inserted into the interior of the beam seat 108.

[0036] The connecting plate 104 has symmetrically fixedly connected spring steel strips 109 on its side wall, and the ends of the spring steel strips 109 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the irregular plate 1.

[0037] The outer wall of the roof 204 is provided with a drainage channel 110 for drainage, and the side wall of the roof 204 is fixedly connected with an eaves gutter 111 for guiding and discharging rainwater.

[0038] Specifically, the support frame 105 set at the top of the irregular plate 1 can be inserted into the beam seat 108 on the inner wall of the roof 204 through the secondary beam 107 rotatably connected inside it, which further improves the tightness of the connection between the roof 204 and the steel structure. The spring steel strip 109 on the side wall of the connecting plate 104 can alleviate the shaking between the irregular plate 1 and the main beam 103, so that the structure will not suffer rigid fracture when encountering wind and snow impact. By opening the water guide channel 110 on the outer wall of the roof 204, rainwater can be guided. The eaves gutter 111 on the side wall of the roof 204 can meet the requirement of rainwater flowing in a uniform direction.

[0039] This utility model is particularly suitable for steel structure factory buildings, improving the flexibility and tightness of steel structure roof connections.
