Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of glass frames, and more particularly to a curved glass mounting frame. Background Technology

[0002] In the fields of architecture and decoration, curved glass, as a unique building material, is widely used in curved windows, roofs, partitions, and other applications to give spaces a more aesthetically pleasing and modern feel. The design and manufacture of the mounting frame are crucial for the stable support and protection of these curved glass panes. Currently, various curved glass mounting frames are available on the market to meet the needs of different projects. However, in some cases, existing aluminum profile frames may have limitations in terms of support and stability, especially for large-sized and complex-shaped curved glass, requiring further technological innovation to improve their support capacity and stability.

[0003] Currently, most curved glass mounting frames employ traditional design and manufacturing methods. These frames are typically made of aluminum alloy, offering a certain level of strength and lightweight properties, facilitating installation and maintenance. Some frames incorporate recessed structures in their design to allow the curved glass to be embedded within and secured with screws or clamps.

[0004] However, while existing aluminum profile frames for curved glass can provide basic support and fixation in certain situations, curved glass is more susceptible to breakage and deformation due to external environmental factors when supporting large curved glass or in harsh environments, exhibiting some shortcomings in stability. Existing frames cannot meet the requirements for high-strength and stable performance, potentially leading to instability, deformation, or damage to curved glass during long-term use. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a more stable curved glass mounting frame to solve the above problems.

[0007] The housing has an inwardly recessed accommodating groove on its inner circumferential surface;

[0008] A glass panel is disposed within the receiving groove, with the two sides of the glass panel abutting against the opposite sides of the receiving groove;

[0009] A reinforcing component, disposed within the receiving groove, includes an anti-torsion layer and a reinforcing layer fixedly connected to the anti-torsion layer. One side of the reinforcing layer is attached to the corner of the mounting frame, and the other side abuts against the glass panel. One side of the anti-torsion layer is fixedly connected to the bottom of the receiving groove, and the other side is attached to the glass panel, for preventing deformation of the housing.

[0010] In at least one embodiment of this application, the mounting frame further includes a buffer layer disposed around the receiving groove, with one side of the buffer layer abutting the reinforcing component and the other side abutting the glass panel.

[0013] In at least one embodiment of this application, the mounting frame further includes a clamping block, one side of each clamping block being disposed on the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion, and the other side being fitted to the glass panel and having an interference fit with the glass panel.

[0014] In at least one embodiment of this application, the clamping blocks are arranged in an array sequentially along the length of the buffer layer.

[0015] In at least one embodiment of this application, the reinforcing layer includes an integrally formed first part and a second part, the first part and the second part respectively abutting adjacent sides of the receiving groove.

[0029] Embodiments of this application provide a curved glass mounting frame, comprising:

[0030] The housing has an inwardly recessed accommodating groove on its inner circumferential surface;

[0031] A glass panel is disposed within the receiving groove, with the two sides of the glass panel abutting against the opposite sides of the receiving groove;

[0032] A reinforcing component, disposed within the receiving groove, includes an anti-torsion layer and a reinforcing layer fixedly connected to the anti-torsion layer. One side of the reinforcing layer is attached to the corner of the mounting frame, and the other side abuts against the glass panel. One side of the anti-torsion layer is fixedly connected to the bottom of the receiving groove, and the other side is attached to the glass panel, for preventing deformation of the housing.

[0033] The aforementioned curved glass mounting frame, by combining an anti-torsion layer and a reinforcement layer, effectively prevents the shell from deforming or twisting when supporting large-sized curved glass, thereby improving overall stability. It can also disperse the stress applied to the frame and reduce local stress concentration. The anti-torsion layer enables the frame to maintain good shape stability when subjected to external forces, thereby extending the service life of the frame, reducing the risk of frame deformation, and enhancing the durability of the frame under high-intensity use conditions.

[0034] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0035] Please see Figures 1-4 An embodiment of this application provides a curved glass mounting frame 100, comprising:

[0036] The housing 10 has an inwardly recessed accommodating groove 11 on its inner circumferential surface;

[0037] A glass panel 20 is disposed in the receiving groove 11, and the two sides of the glass panel 20 are attached to the opposite sides of the receiving groove 11.

[0038] The reinforcing component 30 is disposed in the receiving groove 11 and includes an anti-torsion layer 31 and a reinforcing layer 32 fixedly connected to the anti-torsion layer 31. One side of the reinforcing layer 32 is attached to the corner of the mounting frame, and the other side abuts against the glass panel 20. One side of the anti-torsion layer 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the receiving groove 11, and the other side is attached to the glass panel 20 to prevent deformation of the housing 10.

[0039] Specifically, the housing 10, as the main structure of the mounting frame, forms a receiving groove 11 through a recess on its inner circumference to accommodate and fix the glass panel 20 and other components. This provides a stable mounting base, ensuring the fixed position of the glass panel 20 within the frame, while also reserving space for the installation of subsequent components, simplifying the overall structural design and installation process. The glass panel 20 is installed within the receiving groove 11, with its two sides tightly fitting against the opposite sides of the receiving groove 11, ensuring the stability of the glass panel 20 within the frame. This design not only increases the supporting force of the glass panel 20 but also prevents displacement or loosening due to vibration or external forces during use, improving installation stability and safety.

[0040] Furthermore, the reinforcement component 30 provides additional structural support, effectively preventing deformation of the housing 10 through the combination of the anti-torsion layer 31 and the reinforcement layer 32. The anti-torsion layer 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the receiving groove 11, providing torsional rigidity, while the reinforcement layer 32 disperses and absorbs external stress by abutting against the glass panel 20 and fitting against the frame corners. This design enhances the overall structural strength of the frame, improves its support capacity for large-sized curved glass, prevents deformation or damage to the glass panel 20 in harsh environments, and extends its service life. At the same time, the combination of the anti-torsion layer 31 and the reinforcement layer 32 effectively absorbs and disperses stress, reduces local stress concentration, and further improves the stability and durability of the frame.

[0041] In one specific embodiment, the mounting frame further includes a buffer layer 33, which is arranged around the receiving groove 11, with one side of the buffer layer 33 adhering to the reinforcing component 30 and the other side abutting against the glass panel 20.

[0042] Specifically, the buffer layer 33 is located between the reinforcing component 30 and the glass panel 20, serving as a buffer and shock absorber. It absorbs and disperses external impacts and vibrations applied to the glass panel 20, reducing damage or cracks caused by concentrated stress, and improving the safety and durability of the glass panel 20. The material of the buffer layer 33 typically has good elasticity and flexibility, enabling it to evenly distribute stress on the glass panel 20. This prevents stress concentration at a single point on the glass panel 20, thereby reducing the risk of breakage in high-stress areas and extending the service life of the glass panel 20.

[0043] Furthermore, one side of the buffer layer 33 is attached to the reinforcing component 30, and the other side abuts against the glass panel 20, ensuring a tight connection between the components. Through this tight fit, the buffer layer 33 can more effectively transfer and disperse stress, ensuring the overall stability of the frame structure. At the same time, the presence of the buffer layer 33 makes installation and disassembly more convenient, reducing the risk of damage due to improper installation.

[0044] In one specific embodiment, the buffer layer 33 includes a first bonding portion 331, a buffer portion 332, and a second bonding portion 333 arranged sequentially.

[0045] The first fitting part 331 and the second fitting part 333 are respectively disposed at opposite ends of the buffer part 332 and respectively fit the two sides of the receiving groove 11.

[0046] Specifically, the tight fit between the first fitting portion 331 and the side of the receiving groove 11 ensures that the buffer layer 33 is firmly fixed within the receiving groove 11, preventing it from moving or detaching under external force, thus improving the stability and reliability of the entire mounting frame. The impact portion, located between the first and second fitting portions 331, is elastic and flexible, capable of absorbing and dispersing external stress and impact forces. The buffer portion 332 effectively absorbs and disperses external forces, reducing the direct impact and pressure on the glass panel 20, preventing it from cracking or being damaged due to stress concentration, and improving the safety and durability of the glass panel 20. The tight fit between the second fitting portion 333 and the side of the receiving groove 11 further ensures the stability of the buffer layer 33, allowing it to remain in the correct position under stress, effectively providing buffering and protection.

[0047] Furthermore, when external pressure or vibration is transmitted to the glass panel 20, the buffer portion 332 first absorbs and disperses these external forces. The first bonding portion 331 and the second bonding portion 333 are tightly attached to both sides of the receiving groove 11 to ensure that the buffer layer 33 will not move or detach under stress. The buffer portion 332 weakens the impact force through elastic deformation, protecting the overall structure of the glass panel 20 and the mounting frame. At the same time, the buffer portion 332 transfers part of the stress to the reinforcing component 30 and the receiving groove 11, further dispersing and absorbing stress, ensuring the stability and durability of the overall structure.

[0048] In one specific embodiment, the mounting frame further includes clamping blocks 40, one side of each clamping block 40 is respectively disposed on the first fitting part 331 and the second fitting part 333, and the other side is fitted to the glass panel 20 and has an interference fit with the glass panel 20.

[0049] Specifically, one side of the clamping block 40 is respectively disposed on the first fitting part 331 and the second fitting part 333, serving to fix the glass panel 20 within the receiving groove 11. The presence of the clamping block 40 effectively prevents the glass panel 20 from moving or falling out within the receiving groove 11, improving the stability and safety of the entire mounting frame and ensuring that the glass panel 20 will not shift when subjected to external force or vibration. The first fitting part 331 and the second fitting part 333, as part of the buffer layer 33, are tightly fitted with the clamping block 40, serving to fix and support it.

[0050] Furthermore, the first fitting part 331 and the second fitting part 333 are tightly fitted with the clamping block 40 to form a stable support structure, further enhancing the fixing effect of the buffer layer 33 and the stability of the entire mounting frame. The other side of the clamping block 40 is fitted with the glass panel 20 and has an interference fit with the glass panel 20, that is, there is a certain preload between the clamping block 40 and the glass panel 20, ensuring that the glass panel 20 is firmly fixed between the clamping blocks 40.

[0051] In one specific embodiment, the clamping blocks 40 are arranged in an array along the length of the buffer layer 33.

[0052] Specifically, the clamping blocks 40 are arranged in an array along the length of the buffer layer 33, forming a continuous fixed structure. This array of clamping blocks 40 evenly distributes the fixing force on the glass panel 20, ensuring stable support throughout its length and preventing deformation or damage caused by uneven local stress. The evenly distributed clamping blocks 40 also ensure that the glass panel 20 is evenly distributed under external forces (such as wind pressure or vibration), reducing stress concentration. This uniform force distribution design extends the service life of the glass panel 20 and the mounting frame, improving the overall structural safety and stability.

[0053] Furthermore, the array of clamping blocks 40 enhances the fixing effect of the buffer layer 33, enabling it to more effectively absorb and disperse external forces, protecting the glass panel 20. This improves the protective performance of the buffer layer 33, preventing the glass panel 20 from shifting or loosening during long-term use and ensuring the reliability of the curved glass mounting frame.

[0054] In one specific embodiment, the reinforcing layer 32 includes a first part 321 and a second part 322 integrally formed, the first part 321 and the second part 322 respectively attached to two adjacent sides of the receiving groove 11.

[0055] Specifically, the one-piece molding design gives the reinforcing layer 32 higher structural integrity and strength, avoiding structural weaknesses that might result from segmented connections. This design improves the overall rigidity and durability of the reinforcing layer 32, enhances the stability of the entire frame, and effectively prevents frame deformation. The first part 321 and the second part 322 are respectively attached to the adjacent two sides of the receiving groove 11, enabling the reinforcing layer 32 to provide support and reinforcement to the frame in multiple directions. By attaching to the adjacent two sides, the reinforcing layer 32 can better disperse external forces, avoid local deformation or damage caused by concentrated stress, and improve the stability of the frame under complex stress environments.

[0056] In one specific embodiment, the reinforcement component 30 includes four reinforcement layers 32, which are disposed at the four corners of the housing 10 to increase the bending resistance of the corners.

[0057] Specifically, the reinforcing component 30 is designed to include four reinforcing layers 32, which can simultaneously provide support and reinforcement at the four corners of the frame. This increases the overall rigidity of the frame in all directions, improving its stability and durability under external forces. Placing the reinforcing layers 32 at the four corners of the frame effectively enhances the corner support capacity. Corners are weak points in the frame structure, easily subject to bending and deformation. By setting the reinforcing layers 32 at the corners, the bending resistance of the corners can be significantly enhanced, preventing corner deformation and improving the overall stability of the frame.

[0058] Furthermore, the reinforcement layer 32 provides additional support, dispersing stress concentrated at the corners and preventing bending and deformation. By enhancing the bending resistance of the corners, deformation and damage to the frame can be effectively prevented during long-term use, extending the frame's service life and improving its reliability.

[0059] In one specific embodiment, the anti-torsion layer 31 is disposed between every two reinforcing layers 32 and is arranged in a mesh structure to enhance the strength of the shell 10.

[0060] Specifically, the anti-torsion layer 31 is positioned between every two reinforcing layers 32, allowing it to effectively connect and support the reinforcing layers 32, thus providing stability to the overall structure. This arrangement can evenly distribute stress, reduce local stress concentration, improve the overall torsional resistance of the shell 10, and prevent the structure from twisting and deforming under external forces.

[0061] Furthermore, the mesh structure provides support in multiple directions, enabling the anti-torsion layer 31 to resist not only torsional forces in a single direction but also multi-directional stresses. The mesh structure increases the strength and rigidity of the anti-torsion layer 31, improving the stability and durability of the housing 10 under complex stress conditions and ensuring the stability of the curved glass mounting frame in various usage environments. By incorporating the anti-torsion layer 31, the strength and rigidity of the housing 10 are significantly enhanced, preventing structural fatigue and damage during long-term use and improving overall performance and safety.

[0062] In one specific embodiment, the first bonding portion 331, the buffer portion 332, and the second bonding portion 333 are integrally formed.

[0063] Specifically, the first fitting portion 331 is tightly fitted to the first side of the receiving groove 11, providing initial support for the glass panel 20. Through this tight fit, the first fitting portion 331 effectively fixes one side of the glass panel 20, preventing lateral movement within the receiving groove 11 and improving the stability of the mounting frame. The buffer portion 332 is located between the first fitting portion 331 and the second fitting portion 333, serving as a buffer and shock absorber. The buffer portion 332 absorbs external impacts and vibrations, reducing the direct force on the glass panel 20, preventing breakage or damage due to external forces, and extending its service life.

[0064] Furthermore, the second fitting portion 333 is tightly fitted to the second side of the receiving groove 11, providing further support for the glass panel 20. The fitting of the second fitting portion 333 secures the glass panel 20 on both sides within the receiving groove 11, further enhancing the overall stability of the mounting frame and ensuring that the glass panel 20 remains fixed in various environments. Designing the first fitting portion 331, the buffer portion 332, and the second fitting portion 333 as a single piece ensures seamless connection between the parts, resulting in stronger overall integrity. This one-piece design simplifies the installation process, reduces connection points between parts, and lowers the risk of loosening and displacement due to loose connections. Simultaneously, it improves installation efficiency and reliability, and increases the durability and stability of the structure.

[0065] In one specific embodiment, the clamping block 40 is made of silicone.

[0066] Specifically, silicone is an elastic material with good compression resistance and resilience. The silicone clamping block 40 can effectively compress and deform under pressure and quickly return to its original shape after the pressure is released. This property allows the clamping block 40 to firmly clamp the glass panel 20, while providing cushioning and protection in the event of environmental changes or impacts.

[0067] Furthermore, the clamping block is installed on the first mating part 331 and the second mating part 333, and is interference-fitted with the glass panel 20. This installation method ensures that the clamping block 40 can tightly fix the glass panel 20, preventing it from shifting or loosening within the receiving groove 11. At the same time, the interference fit increases the stability and reliability of the installation, allowing the glass panel 20 to remain stable in various environments. The silicone material is soft and can adapt to the shape of the glass panel 20 and the size of the mounting frame. The soft silicone clamping block 40 can provide appropriate flexibility and adaptability during installation, reducing stress concentration on the glass panel 20 during installation and preventing the glass panel 20 from cracking or being damaged due to excessive stress.

[0068] The above description is merely an embodiment of this application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make improvements without departing from the inventive concept of this application, but these improvements all fall within the protection scope of this application.
