Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seismic support connectors, and more specifically, to a novel seismic support connector. Background Technology
[0002] Seismic bracing connectors are specialized components used in building structures to improve their seismic resistance. They secure pipes, wires, and other electromechanical equipment, enabling them to better withstand seismic forces and reduce damage.
[0003] For example, CN212251470U discloses a seismic-resistant connector for pipeline installation, comprising a clamp, a first stud, a bracket, and a second stud. The clamp has a first stud horizontally mounted on its top, penetrating the clamp, and a first nut screwed onto the left end of the first stud. A bracket is mounted on the top of the clamp, and a second stud is mounted in the middle of the bracket, penetrating the bracket, with a second nut screwed onto the top of the second stud. A rubber ring is fitted around the bottom of the second stud. This invention, firstly, employs a graded seismic-resistant structure, effectively absorbing and buffering vibration energy, reducing vibration during pipeline installation, thus improving the seismic performance of the connector. Secondly, an internal limiting and fastening structure limits the position of the tightened stud and nut, reducing the possibility of the nut rotating under stress and detaching, thereby improving the stability of the seismic-resistant connector connection.
[0004] The above-mentioned patent has the following defects in use:
[0005] When clamps are used to fix pipes of different diameters, it is not easy to make corresponding adjustments, resulting in insufficient and unstable fixation for pipes of different diameters. This makes it easy for smaller diameter pipes to loosen after placement, which can affect their seismic resistance during subsequent use and lead to poor performance. Therefore, this utility model proposes a new type of seismic support connector. Utility Model Content

The seismic support connector of this solution can fully contact pipes of different diameters through the expansion and contraction deformation, so as to fully compress the pipes of different diameters and ensure their stability. At the same time, it is used in conjunction with the threaded connection to fix the pipes, and the rack and pinion engagement is used to further assist in the fixation, enhance its fixing effect, prevent loosening, and ensure its seismic resistance.
[0008] 2. Technical Solution:
[0009] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.
[0010] A novel seismic bracing connector includes a base plate. A lower fixed half-ring is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate. An upper fixed half-ring is provided at the top of the lower fixed half-ring. A connecting mechanism is provided between the outer walls of the lower and upper fixed half-rings.

Bolt holes are drilled at the top of both pairs of connecting plates. Fixing bolts are provided at the top of the top pair of connecting plates. The bottom ends of the fixing bolts pass through a pair of bolt holes and extend to their bottoms. Fixing nuts are threaded onto the outer walls of the fixing bolts, and the top of the fixing nuts contacts the bottom end of the bottom connecting plate.
[0012] A further improvement is that: a side plate is fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the pair of connecting plates at the top, and a first rack is fixedly connected to one end of the side plate; a second rack is fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the pair of connecting plates at the bottom, and the first rack and the second rack mesh with each other.
[0013] A further improvement is that the telescopic extrusion mechanism includes multiple fixed cylinders, the bottom ends of which are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the upper fixed half-ring. A pair of internal rods are fixedly connected between the inner walls of the multiple fixed cylinders. A circular plate is provided inside each of the multiple fixed cylinders, and a pair of circular holes are drilled at the top of the circular plate.

The bottom end of the movable rod passes through the first through hole and the second through hole in sequence and is fixedly connected to a rubber anti-slip block.
[0014] A further improvement is that a rubber anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower fixed half ring, and the rubber anti-slip pad is arc-shaped.
[0015] A further improvement is that a pair of support blocks are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lower fixed half ring, and the bottom ends of the pair of support blocks are fixedly connected to the top end of the base plate.
[0016] 3. Beneficial effects:
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages:
[0018] I. This utility model, through its connecting mechanism, enables the lower and upper fixed half-rings to be connected and fixed by the locking and fixing between the fixing bolts and fixing nuts, thus facilitating the fixation of the pipeline. At the same time, the connection is reinforced by the meshing of the first and second racks, making the fixation between the lower and upper fixed half-rings more secure and stable, less prone to loosening under vibration, thereby ensuring the stability of the pipeline under vibration and enhancing the seismic resistance.
[0019] Second, this utility model, through its telescopic compression mechanism, can drive multiple movable rods and rubber anti-slip blocks to perform corresponding telescopic movements according to pipes of different diameters, forming a shape that matches the outer wall of the pipe, achieving full contact with the pipe, so as to compress pipes of different diameters, ensuring sufficient compression and fixation, reducing loosening, and improving stability.

[0032] Example:
[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 A novel seismic support connector includes a base plate 1. A lower fixed half-ring 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. An upper fixed half-ring 3 is provided at the top of the lower fixed half-ring 2. A connecting mechanism 4 is provided between the outer walls of the lower fixed half-ring 2 and the upper fixed half-ring 3. A telescopic compression mechanism 5 is provided on the outer wall of the upper fixed half-ring 3. A pair of connecting rods 7 are provided at the top of the base plate 1. A pair of fixing plates 10 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the connecting rods 7. The bottom ends of the two pairs of fixing plates 10 at the bottom are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. An mounting plate 8 is fixedly connected between the top ends of the two pairs of fixing plates 10 at the top. A pair of mounting holes 9 are drilled at the top of the mounting plate 8.
[0034] More specifically: a pair of support blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lower fixed half ring 2, and the bottom ends of the pair of support blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the top end of the base plate 1.
[0035] In this solution, the pipe is placed on the inner wall of the lower fixed half-ring 2, the upper fixed half-ring 3 is closed, and the pipe between the lower fixed half-ring 2 and the upper fixed half-ring 3 is fully contacted and compressed by the telescopic compression mechanism 5 to ensure its stability. Then, the lower fixed half-ring 2 and the upper fixed half-ring 3 are connected and fixed by the connecting mechanism 4 to fix the pipe, making it less likely to loosen under vibration and ensuring its stability. Next, the position of the mounting plate 8 is adjusted by the movement of the connecting rod 7, so that the mounting plate 8 is connected and fixed to the building through the mounting hole 9 with fasteners, realizing the installation and fixing of the seismic support connector. In addition, a pair of support blocks 11 can strengthen the connection stability between the lower fixed half-ring 2 and the base plate 1.
[0036] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connecting mechanism 4 includes two pairs of connecting plates 401. The ends of the top pair of connecting plates 401 that are close to each other are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the upper fixed half ring 3, and the ends of the bottom pair of connecting plates 401 that are close to each other are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the lower fixed half ring 2. The top of each pair of connecting plates 401 is drilled with bolt holes 402. The top of the top pair of connecting plates 401 is provided with fixing bolts 403. The bottom end of the fixing bolts 403 passes through a pair of bolt holes 402 in sequence and extends to its bottom. The outer wall of the fixing bolts 403 is threaded with fixing nuts 404, and the top end of the fixing nuts 404 contacts the bottom end of the bottom connecting plate 401.
[0037] More specifically: a pair of connecting plates 401 at the top are fixedly connected to a side plate 405 at their far ends, and a first rack 406 is fixedly connected to one end of the side plate 405; a pair of connecting plates 401 at the bottom are fixedly connected to a second rack 407 at their far ends, and the first rack 406 and the second rack 407 mesh with each other.
[0038] During use, after the lower fixed half-ring 2 and the upper fixed half-ring 3 are aligned, the two pairs of connecting plates 401 are also aligned with each other. The fixing bolts 403 are screwed through a pair of bolt holes 402 in sequence, and then the fixing nuts 404 are rotated to lock and fix them. This can drive the lower fixed half-ring 2 and the upper fixed half-ring 3 to be connected and fixed. During the alignment of the two pairs of connecting plates 401, the first rack 406 and the second rack 407 are engaged. Through the engagement, the connection between the two pairs of connecting plates 401 can be strengthened, thereby strengthening the connection between the lower fixed half-ring 2 and the upper fixed half-ring 3 and making the pipeline more stable.
[0039] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The telescopic compression mechanism 5 includes multiple fixed cylinders 501. The bottom ends of the multiple fixed cylinders 501 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the upper fixed half ring 3. A pair of built-in rods 506 are fixedly connected between the inner walls of the multiple fixed cylinders 501. A circular plate 504 is provided inside the multiple fixed cylinders 501. A pair of circular holes are drilled at the top of the circular plate 504. The circular plate 504 is sleeved between the outer walls of the pair of built-in rods 506 through the circular holes. A movable rod 502 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the circular plate 504. A spring 505 is sleeved on the outer wall of the movable rod 502. The two ends of the spring 505 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the circular plate 504 and the inner bottom end of the fixed cylinder 501, respectively. A first through hole is drilled at the inner bottom end of the fixed cylinder 501. Multiple second through holes are drilled on the outer wall of the upper fixed half ring 3. The bottom end of the movable rod 502 passes through the first through hole and the second through hole in sequence and is fixedly connected to a rubber anti-slip block 503.
[0040] More specifically: the inner wall of the lower fixed half ring 2 is fixedly connected with a rubber anti-slip pad 6, and the rubber anti-slip pad 6 is arc-shaped.
[0041] During use, multiple rubber anti-slip blocks 503 come into contact with the outer wall of the pipe. The pressure from the outer wall causes these blocks to move to varying degrees, compressing multiple movable rods 502 and circular plates 504 along a pair of internal rods 506 into the fixed cylinder 501, compressing the spring 505. This process continues until the blocks and rods, after their movement, are shaped to match the outer wall of the pipe, ensuring full contact. This allows for the clamping of pipes of different diameters, guaranteeing sufficient compression and fixation, reducing loosening, and improving stability. Additionally, the rubber anti-slip pad 6, located on the inner wall of the lower fixed semi-ring 2, contacts the pipe and provides cushioning and protection.
[0042] Working principle: First, the pipe is placed on the inner wall of the lower fixed half-ring 2, and the upper fixed half-ring 3 is closed. Multiple rubber anti-slip blocks 503 come into contact with the outer wall of the pipe and are compressed by the outer wall, causing the multiple rubber anti-slip blocks 503 to move to different degrees. This compresses multiple movable rods 502 and circular plates 504 along a pair of internal rods 506 into the fixed cylinder 501, until the multiple rubber anti-slip blocks 503 and movable rods 502, after movement, are shaped to match the outer wall of the pipe, achieving full contact with the pipe, thus protecting it. After fully tightening, tighten the fixing bolts 403 one by one through a pair of bolt holes 402, then put on the fixing nuts 404, and rotate upward until they contact the bottom end of the connecting plate 401 at the bottom for locking and fixing. With the engagement of the first rack 406 and the second rack 407, the lower fixing half ring 2 and the upper fixing half ring 3 are connected and fixed. Next, turn the connecting rod 7 to deflect it, adjust the mounting plate 8 to contact the building, and then connect and fix it to the building through the mounting holes 9 with fasteners to realize the installation and fixing of the seismic support connector.
[0043] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of certain implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
