Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of exhibition profile technology, and in particular to a profile unit and a profile frame. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, profiles are widely used structural components in various fields such as architecture, exhibitions, and industrial assembly. They can support external components such as LED screens and light strips. Currently, the installation method for external components usually relies on the traditional pre-installation of the mounting structure. That is, holes need to be pre-set on the profile unit, and the mounting structure is fixed to the profile unit with fasteners such as bolts and screws. Then, the external components are installed on the mounting structure. For example, in the case of a light box structure, the light box structure is first installed on the profile, and then the external components are installed. This installation method has a number of shortcomings:

[0003] Firstly, installation requires precise alignment of the holes, especially in scenarios involving large-scale assembly or frequent disassembly and reassembly. This step is both time-consuming and labor-intensive, reducing overall installation efficiency. Furthermore, if the structure is pre-installed by drilling, it will weaken the local strength of the profile unit, especially around the holes, where stress concentration is likely to occur. Over long-term use, this may lead to cracks or breakage, affecting the safety of the structure. More importantly, once the profile unit is installed and external parts are fixed by drilling, it will be difficult to preserve the profile intact and reuse it, making it unsuitable for other application scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the traditional profile unit in terms of installation method, this utility model proposes a new profile unit structure, which aims to achieve the technical advantages of easy installation, repeatability and structural stability.

[0005] This application provides a profile unit comprising: an outer plate and an inner plate along a first direction, the outer plate comprising a first plane and at least one second plane; a hook portion disposed on the second plane; the first plane and the second plane being spaced apart in the first direction to form a first groove together with one side of the hook portion, and the other side of the hook portion and the second plane together forming a second groove with an opening facing the second direction; wherein the first direction and the second direction are perpendicularly disposed.

[0006] In a further embodiment of this application, the first plane is located in the central region of the outer plate, and the second plane is disposed on both sides of the first plane along the second direction and is symmetrically disposed relative to the first plane to form two first grooves; the number of the hanging parts is two and they are respectively symmetrically disposed on the second plane.

[0007] In a further embodiment of this application, the opening directions of the second grooves formed by the two hook-fitting portions are opposite.

[0008] In a further embodiment of this application, each attachment includes a support section and an extension section. One end of the support section is connected to the second plane, and the other end is connected to the end of the extension section. The other end of the extension section extends in a second direction away from the first plane.

[0009] In a further embodiment of this application, a protrusion is provided on the inner plate. The protrusion is located on both sides of the inner plate along the second direction and extends in the first direction away from the outer plate to form a third groove.

[0010] In a further embodiment of this application, the profile unit includes two side plates, which are respectively connected to an outer plate and an inner plate to enclose and form a cavity structure; at least one side plate is provided with a plurality of first mounting through holes spaced apart along a third direction upward.

[0011] In a further embodiment of this application, a wire-passing hole and a plurality of second mounting through holes are provided on the first plane; a plurality of second mounting through holes are provided on the second plane; on the first plane, the wire-passing hole is located at the end of the profile frame body, and the second mounting through holes are spaced apart between the wire-passing holes.

[0012] In a further embodiment of this application, both the first mounting through hole and the second mounting through hole are elongated; wherein the width of the first mounting through hole and the second mounting through hole is the same as the diameter of the wire hole.

[0013] A second aspect of this application also provides a profile frame, comprising a plurality of profile units as described above, the ends of which are connected to each other.

[0014] In a further embodiment of this application, each profile unit has a 30° to 60° beveled end along the axial direction, and the profile units are connected to each other through the beveled ends.

[0015] In summary, the present application provides a profile unit including an outer panel and an inner panel. The outer panel includes a first plane and at least one second plane. A hook-up portion is provided on the second plane. The first plane and the second plane are spaced apart to form a first groove together with one side of the hook-up portion, and the other side of the hook-up portion and the second plane together form a second groove along the opening towards a second direction.

[0016] The profile unit features a dual-directional groove design, namely a first groove and a second groove. Because these two grooves are located in different directions and positions, the profile unit can be flexibly configured according to specific application scenarios and requirements. For example, the first groove can be used in scenarios requiring side or internal support, while the second groove can be used in scenarios requiring frontal display or hanging devices. In other words, by providing different snap-fit ​​positions, the profile unit can flexibly adapt to different application scenarios and needs.

[0036] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The present application provides a profile unit 100, which includes an outer plate 11 and an inner plate 12 along a first direction H. The outer plate 11 includes a first plane 111 and at least one second plane 112; a hanging part 13 is provided on the second plane 112.

[0037] Based on the general concept of this application, the first plane 111 and the second plane 112 are spaced apart in the first direction H, and a first groove a is formed between them and on one side of the hook portion 13; the other side of the hook portion 13 and the second plane 112 together form a second groove b along the opening in the second direction W.

[0038] The first direction H and the second direction W are set perpendicularly.

[0039] It should be noted that the profile unit 100 as a whole is a frame structure. The outer panel 11 and the inner panel 12 can be understood as two opposing walls in the first direction H. The first direction H and the second direction W are relative, both being perpendicular to the cross-section of the profile unit 100. Figure 1 In the example of the placement angle, the first direction H can be understood as the height direction of the profile unit 100, and the second direction W is its width direction. At this time, the outer panel 11 is located at its top, and the inner panel 12 is located at its bottom.

[0040] The naming and definition of the outer panel 11 and the inner panel 12 are indeed determined based on their relative positions after the profile units 100 are assembled into a frame. The outer panel 11 is located on the outside of the profile unit 100, that is, when multiple profile units are combined into a frame or structure, the outer panel 11 is the side facing the external environment or the visible part. The inner panel 12 is located on the inside of the profile unit 100, that is, the side facing the external environment. When the profile units are combined into a frame, the inner panel 12 usually faces the internal space of the frame.

[0041] The outer plate 11 further includes a first plane 111 and at least one second plane 112, which are spaced apart in a first direction H to form a first groove a formed in the first direction H by means of a height difference.

[0042] The mounting portion 13 and the second plane 112 together form a second groove b with an opening facing the second direction W. This allows the profile unit 100 to provide additional connection and fixing functions in the second directional dimension perpendicular to the first direction H (i.e., the second direction W).

[0043] The profile unit 100 features a groove design in two directions (first groove a and second groove b). Since the two grooves are located in different directions and positions, the profile unit can be flexibly configured according to specific application scenarios and requirements. For example, in scenarios requiring side or internal support, the first groove a can be used; while in scenarios requiring front display or hanging devices, the second groove b can be used. In other words, by providing snap-fit ​​positions in different directions, the profile unit can flexibly adapt to different application scenarios and requirements.

[0044] The first plane 111 is located in the central area of ​​the outer plate 11. The second plane 112 is disposed on both sides of the first plane 111 along the second direction W and is symmetrically disposed relative to the first plane 111 to form two first grooves a. There are two hanging parts 13, which are symmetrically disposed on the second plane 112 respectively.

[0045] The above layout perfectly accommodates the fabric tray slot, integrating it into the profile unit 100. This provides a precise matching and fixing method for installing fabric light boxes or other external components. Since the first groove a is pre-formed, installers only need to align the external component with the groove, eliminating the need for tedious drilling or precise alignment, thus greatly improving installation accuracy and efficiency. The symmetrical design of the second plane 112 and the hanging part 13 is suitable for front-mounted fabric lanterns.

[0046] For example, if the first groove a is located between the first plane 111 and the second plane 112 of the outer panel 11, its depth and orientation allow the side clasp or similar material to wrap around and extend to the front of the profile unit. This design makes it easier for the profile unit to be integrated with other components or decorative materials during assembly, improving the overall aesthetics and stability.

[0047] In some embodiments, in addition to serving as a slot for the clasp, the first groove a can also serve as an installation location for the edge sealing strip. Edge sealing strips are typically used to cover the edges of a profile unit to prevent scratches, improve aesthetics, or achieve a specific sealing effect. By inserting the edge sealing strip into the first groove a, it is ensured that the edge sealing strip is securely fixed to the profile unit while maintaining overall flatness and consistency.

[0048] Furthermore, the second groove b is located on the front side of the profile unit 100 (i.e., any side in the second direction W) and is formed by the hook part 13 and the second plane 112 together, so as to allow the clip groove to be directly set on the front side of the profile unit, which facilitates the installation or fixing of decorative cloth, sunshade, screen and other components on the front side.

[0049] Through integrated design, the lightbox structure is directly embedded in the first groove a of the profile (assuming the first groove a is suitable for the installation of the lightbox), while the second groove b can be used to fix other components (such as the lightbox fabric, edge banding, or display panel). This design reduces the connection points between components, thereby enhancing the stability and robustness of the overall structure. The integrated structure reduces assembly steps and complexity, allowing installers to more intuitively understand the position and function of each component, greatly reducing operational difficulty and error rate; even inexperienced workers can quickly get started and perform efficient installation. Furthermore, since the first groove a and the second groove b are integrally formed during the profile manufacturing process, there is no need for on-site drilling, avoiding the problem of weakening the local strength of the profile unit due to drilling and reducing the risk of stress concentration.

[0050] That is, the opening directions of the second groove b formed by the two hook parts 13 are opposite; the clip can be clamped from both sides of the front of the profile unit at the same time. The second groove b with opposite opening directions provides a clear positioning point for the clip and can prevent the clip from loosening or falling off due to external force after installation. During installation, simply align the two sides of the clip and insert them into the two grooves to achieve quick and accurate installation.

[0051] Furthermore, each mounting portion 13 includes a support section 131 and an extension section 132. One end of the support section 131 is connected to the second plane 112, and the other end is connected to the end of the extension section 132. The other end of the extension section 132 extends along the second direction W in a direction away from the first plane 111.

[0052] One end of the support section 131 is firmly connected to the second plane 112, providing a stable support base for the entire attachment. The extension section 132 extends from the other end of the support section 131, extending in the direction of the second direction W away from the first plane 111. This design allows the extension section 132 to form an outward "hook" or "L" shape for fixing or suspending external components.

[0053] The inner panel 12 has protrusions 15 located on both sides of the inner panel 12 along the second direction W and extending in the first direction H away from the outer panel 11 to form a third groove c. The third groove c constitutes the inner groove of the profile unit 100, and is used in conjunction with corresponding components for the installation and fixing of commonly used exhibition structures such as panels and shelves. These components can be designed to match the shape of the third groove c and are fixed in the groove by insertion or snap-fit, thereby achieving a stable connection.

[0054] The profile unit includes two side plates 14, which are respectively connected to the outer plate 11 and the inner plate 12 to enclose and form a cavity structure A. The cavity structure A, as an internal through-slot structure, is suitable for concealed conduit wiring. By hiding the wiring within the cavity structure A, a neat and aesthetically pleasing appearance is maintained, and potential damage from exposed wiring is avoided. In addition to wiring, the cavity structure A can also be used with embedded corner bracket structures to connect profiles. These embedded corner bracket structures can be installed inside the cavity structure A and fixed to the profile unit using bolts or other fasteners, achieving a concealed connection for a simpler and more aesthetically pleasing overall structure.

[0055] Furthermore, at least one side plate 14 is provided with a plurality of first mounting through holes 141 spaced apart along a third direction L, preferably with first mounting through holes 141 on both sides. By providing first mounting through holes 141 on the side plate 14, the weight of the profile unit can be reduced to a certain extent, achieving a lightweight design. This is particularly important for fields such as exhibition construction and architectural decoration that require handling and installation, as it can reduce the labor intensity of workers and improve construction efficiency. In addition, the first mounting through holes 141 mainly provide fixed mounting and installation points for the profile unit 100. The through holes can be used with fasteners such as bolts and screws to securely install other components or structures onto the profile unit. Since the through holes are pre-set, there is no need to drill additional holes on the profile unit, simplifying the installation process and improving installation efficiency.

[0056] Correspondingly, the first plane 111 is provided with a wire through hole 111a and a plurality of second mounting through holes 111b. The wire through hole 111a is located at the end of the profile frame body 10, and the second mounting through holes 111b are spaced apart between the wire through holes 111a. The second plane 112 is provided with a plurality of spaced second mounting through holes 111b.

[0057] The wire hole 111a is located at the end of the profile frame body 10. The layout allows the wire hole to be easily connected or led out of the cable. Especially when the profile units are assembled into a frame, the wire hole located at the end can ensure the smooth passage of the cable and achieve concealed wire pulling. The second mounting through hole 111b is similar to the first mounting through hole 141 and is used to provide a fixed mounting point.

[0058] Both the first mounting through-hole 141 and the second mounting through-hole 111b are elongated. These elongated through-holes provide sufficient installation space while minimizing disruption to material continuity caused by openings, thus maintaining high structural strength. Secondly, the elongated through-holes allow for some adjustment during installation, making installation more flexible and convenient. The widths of the first mounting through-hole 141 and the second mounting through-hole 111b are consistent with the diameter of the wire-passing hole 111a. Maintaining dimensional consistency simplifies the manufacturing process and reduces production costs; furthermore, in certain specific applications, it may be necessary to pass wires through the mounting through-holes or for functional interchangeability; in such cases, dimensional consistency ensures smooth cable passage.

[0059] In summary, the profile unit 100 provided in this application integrates the fabric-covered lightbox structure into the profile unit 100, achieving integration of both front and side fabric covering methods. Furthermore, it provides more mounting positions for rigid decorative panels. By integrating the original structure requiring two components for connection into a single structure, it enhances the stability and robustness of the structure, facilitating intuitive understanding and operation, and significantly reducing the difficulty of exhibition construction. This eliminates the reliance on experienced installation workers, improving the speed and quality of exhibition setup.

[0060] Furthermore, the 100-meter profile fully considers concealed wiring. Commonly used exhibition cables can be fixedly installed in the internal cable trays and equipped with terminal blocks. This simplifies the previously cumbersome steps that required two different trades: installers and electricians. Wiring and cable connections can be carried out simultaneously during the structural construction process, and the overall wiring can also be completed simultaneously after the structural construction is finished. This greatly saves construction time and labor costs, lowers the implementation threshold, and ensures the quality of the finished product.

[0061] Furthermore, those skilled in the art should understand that if all or part of the sub-modules involved in the profile unit 100 provided in the embodiments of this application are combined or replaced by means of fusion, simple changes, mutual transformation, etc., such as detachable design; or if part of its structure is designed as a split type; any components after combination can form a structure with a specific function, and such structure is used to replace the corresponding components of this application, it also falls within the protection scope of this application.

[0062] Please see Figure 4 The second aspect of this application also provides a profile frame 200, including a plurality of the aforementioned profile units 100, which are connected to each other at their ends. For example, four profile units 100 can form a rectangular or square planar frame, or multiple profile units 100 can form a cube or rectangular frame, etc.

[0063] The profile unit 100 can be configured with an embedded corner bracket structure, and various other connection methods can also be used to connect the profile units. For example, traditional metal connection methods such as welding and riveting can be used, or specialized connectors (such as angle irons and connecting plates) can be used for connection. The specific choice depends on the application scenario and the appropriate configuration.

[0064] In a preferred embodiment of this application, each profile unit 10 has a 30° to 60° beveled surface T at its axial end, and the profile units 10 are connected by surface contact through the beveled surface T. Compared to point contact such as corner brackets or screw connections, surface contact provides a larger contact area, thereby dispersing stress at the connection, reducing stress concentration, and thus enhancing the strength and stability of the connection. The design of the beveled surface T also improves the aesthetics of the overall frame. Especially in applications where appearance is a high priority, the smooth transition of the beveled surface T makes the frame look flatter.

[0065] The technical features described above can be combined arbitrarily. Although not all possible combinations of these technical features are described, any combination of these technical features should be considered to be covered by this specification, provided that such combination does not contain contradictions.

[0066] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and not to limit them; although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still adjust the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some or all of the technical features; and these adjustments or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
