[0019] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides a more detailed account of a glass roof edge-locking, shock-resistant, hole-free lightning protection clip.
[0020] like Figures 1-3As shown, a lightning protection clip for glass roofs that prevents loosening, vibration, and requires no drilling is provided. It includes a main lightning protection clip frame 1, which comprises a U-shaped fixing part 11 at the bottom and a vertical mounting part 12 at the top. A lightning protection strip buckle 2 is detachably mounted on the mounting part 12 using fasteners. The fixing part 11 includes a connected base plate, side plates, and top plate. Heat shrink tubing 3 covers the base plate and side plates. A vertically arranged self-locking bolt 4 is threaded onto the top plate. Specifically, a self-locking nut 5 is fixedly installed on the top plate, and the self-locking bolt 4 passes through the top plate and is threadedly connected to the self-locking nut 5. The lower end of the self-locking bolt 4 is fixedly connected to the small end of a conical block 6, and the large end of the conical block 6 is fixedly connected to a buffer pad.
[0021] In this embodiment, the main frame 1 of the lightning protection card is made of 25mm wide and 3mm thick galvanized flat steel, which is bent to size in the factory using a flat steel bending machine. For angles <1 (angle between top plate and side plate) and <2 (angle between top plate and mounting part), it is processed at (90°-5°) and (90°+5°) respectively to facilitate clamping later. Considering the distance between the bottom plate and the top plate and the thickness of the glass, the processing dimension is 50mm (considering glass thickness + 10mm). Then, holes are drilled in the main frame 1 of the lightning protection card.
[0022] The lightning protection strip is made of 10mm diameter round steel. The lightning protection strip clip 2 is made of 25mm wide, 3mm thick flat steel, machined into a semi-circular arc shape using a mold. Both sides of the lightning protection strip clip 2 are fixed to the main frame 1 of the lightning protection card using M6*15mm clip fixing screws 7 with caps. The clip self-locking nut 5 is an M6 self-locking nut, and the clip self-top bolt 4 is an M6*40mm bolt. The conical block 6 is made of round steel ground into a conical shape, with a tapered top and a 2mm thick rubber flexible treatment at the bottom, and then screwed to the clip self-top bolt 4 for fixation. After adjusting the clip self-top bolt 4, the clip self-locking nut 5 is tightened and fixed to the main frame 1 of the lightning protection card by the clip self-top bolt 4 for self-locking.
[0023] The heat shrink tubing 3 of the lightning protection card main frame is 2 mm thick. After the heat shrink tubing of the corresponding specification is pre-fitted onto the lightning protection card main frame 1, it is attached to the bottom plate and side plate of the lightning protection card main frame 1 by heating and shrinking to ensure a firm and tight attachment.
[0024] After all components are manufactured in the factory, they are pre-assembled with the main lightning protection bracket 1 in the factory, and then their dimensions are checked and their load-bearing capacity is tested. Only after passing the acceptance test can they be brought to the site. After all components and the main lightning protection bracket 1 are inspected and accepted on site, the device is installed at the edge of the glass roof, followed by the laying of the lightning protection strip. Then, the load-bearing capacity test of the lightning protection bracket and the appearance, safety and functional tests of the lightning protection strip are carried out, and the batch is inspected and accepted.
[0025] A construction project features a glass roof at an elevation of 26.4 meters. As this is the highest point of the building, a lightning protection network must be installed. Installing the lightning protection clips posed a challenge, as openings could easily lead to leaks and damage to the glass structure. To address this problem, the project team, considering the risks of glass damage and leaks from openings, as well as the potential for the adhesive to become unstable, prone to aging, and unsafe due to seasonal temperature variations, developed this device.
[0026] The device, applied in this project, utilizes the thickness and rigidity of the glass roof's edge. The lower part of the device uses flexible heat-shrink tubing to contact the glass, while the upper part uses a combination of self-locking nuts 5, conical blocks 6, and self-locking bolts 4 to clamp the glass. Fine adjustments are made by rotating the self-locking bolts 4. The buffer pad connected to the large surface of the conical blocks 6 serves both to protect the glass and to secure it. On the inner side of the edge, lightning protection strip clips 2 clamp the lightning protection strip, utilizing gravity to achieve excellent self-locking, anti-falling, and self-stabilizing effects.
[0027] This clamp can be prefabricated in a factory, eliminating the need for drilling holes in structural surfaces during installation. This saves materials, energy, electricity, and labor, and avoids the quality risks of leakage caused by drilling. The device has a wide range of applications and a promising market prospect. It features superior appearance, convenient operation, safety and reliability, easy mobility, cost savings, stable quality, and is detachable, easy to maintain, and reusable.

Furthermore, under the teachings of this utility model, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model.
