Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sliding door accessories, specifically to a guide clamp structure and a sliding door having the guide clamp structure. Background Technology

[0002] A shower enclosure typically consists of a frame and a door. Existing shower enclosures usually have two door opening methods: hinged doors and sliding doors. For shower enclosures with sliding doors, the fixed glass needs to be connected to a pull rod profile, and the sliding door also needs to be connected to a pull rod profile. Appropriate sliding guides also need to be installed at the top and bottom of the sliding door.

[0003] Currently, the upper part of the glass sliding door is movably mounted on the upper edge of the door frame via a set of pulley mechanisms, while the lower part is movably mounted on the lower edge of the door frame via another set of pulley mechanisms, thus enabling the glass sliding door to slide horizontally. However, this pulley mechanism guiding method requires a guide rail groove on the side of the lower frame to install the pulley mechanism, which is complex, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and involves many parts, affecting the overall aesthetics of the shower room.

[0004] With technological advancements, some sliding guide components have emerged on the market. However, in existing sliding guide component structures, the guide groove and the fixed base are inseparable, and the fixed base is inconvenient to disassemble once installed. With this installation method, after a period of use, a large amount of dust and hair will accumulate in the guide groove. Since the lower end of the shower room's sliding glass door cannot detach from the lower door frame and swing away from the fixed glass door, it will be difficult to clean the accumulated dust and hair, making it difficult to thoroughly clean the guide groove and other areas. Furthermore, this type of guide component generally only corresponds to one thickness of sliding door. When the thickness of the sliding door changes, the entire guide component needs to be replaced, resulting in poor versatility. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a guide clamp structure and a sliding door with the guide structure, which aims to solve the technical problems of inconvenient disassembly after installation and use of the guide structure, difficulty in cleaning dirt in the guide groove and other parts, and poor versatility.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a guide clamp structure, including a first base, the first base having an opening slot capable of accommodating a door or window, the first base comprising:

[0007] A guide plate includes a first connecting end and a second connecting end disposed opposite to the first connecting end;

[0008] A limiting plate includes a bracket, a first connecting end is installed on the upper end of the limiting plate, a second connecting end is located in the cavity of the bracket, and the bottom end of the second connecting end is on the same horizontal line as the bottom end of the bracket.

[0009] The mounting bracket includes a horizontal plate having a hinge lug and a snap-fit ​​wall, the second connecting end being hinged to the hinge lug by a pin, and the snap-fit ​​wall being fitted to the bracket.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the first connecting end and the second connecting end of the guide plate are located at the upper end and the lower end of the limiting plate, respectively. The first connecting end can be hinged to the upper end of the limiting plate by a pin (that is, the upper end of the limiting plate is provided with a pin connecting hole, and the first connecting end is also provided with a pin connecting hole. The pin passes through the pin connecting hole of the first connecting end and the pin connecting hole of the limiting plate to achieve the hinge). The bottom end of the second connecting end is on the same horizontal line as the bottom end of the bracket. The horizontal plate of the mounting bracket has a hinge ear and a snap-fit ​​wall. The hinge ear and the snap-fit ​​wall are staggered. The snap-fit ​​wall is located outside the hinge ear. The second connecting end of the guide plate is located in the cavity of the bracket, and the second connecting end is hinged to the hinge ear by a pin. The hinge ear has a pin connection hole, and the second connection end also has a pin connection hole. The pin passes through the pin connection hole of the second connection end and the pin connection hole of the hinge ear to achieve the hinge. At this time, the snap-fit ​​wall of the mounting bracket is matched and installed in the bracket. In practice, the first connection end of the guide plate is hinged to the upper end of the limiting plate, and the lower end of the limiting plate is the bracket. The two sides of the bracket are snap-fit ​​walls that are snap-fitted to the mounting bracket. By adopting the guide clamp structure, the guide plate pushes the limiting plate to rotate, but the limiting plate can also limit the large-scale rotation of the guide plate. When it is necessary to clean the dirt in the guide groove and other parts, the guide clamp structure can be disassembled for easy cleaning. Secondly, doors and windows of different thicknesses can be installed on the opening groove, which has strong versatility.

[0011] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0012] Furthermore, the limiting plate also includes a main body, and the bracket is integrally formed with the main body.

[0013] Furthermore, the main body has a through cavity running vertically, and the guide plate is installed in the cavity; the left and right sides of the first connecting end are respectively hinged to the two side walls of the cavity by pins; a placement groove is provided in the middle of the hinge ear, and the second connecting end extends from the cavity into the placement groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the bracket is an L-shaped structural member composed of a bracket transverse end and a bracket longitudinal end.

[0015] Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​wall has a vertical wall and an arcuate groove wall that connects with the vertical wall;

[0016] The transverse end has an arc segment, and the longitudinal end has a planar segment, with the planar segment and the arc segment being connected and arranged together.

[0017] The planar segment is connected to the vertical wall, the arc segment is installed on the arc-shaped groove wall, the guide plate moves around the pin, the arc segment can move relative to the arc of the arc-shaped groove wall, and the planar segment abuts against the vertical wall.

[0018] Furthermore, the first connecting end is configured with a rounded transition.

[0019] Furthermore, the mounting bracket also includes a quick-release bracket, which is connected to the transverse plate, and one end of the quick-release bracket forms the opening groove with the guide plate and the limiting plate.

[0020] Furthermore, the other end of the quick-release bracket has a clamping portion;

[0021] The guide clamp structure further includes a second base, one end of which has a clamping groove. The clamping groove has an insertion interface along its vertical direction, and the clamping part is inserted into the clamping groove along the direction of the insertion interface.

[0022] Furthermore, the other end of the second base is provided with a first mounting groove and a second mounting groove. The first mounting groove and the second mounting groove are arranged opposite to each other and are open. The first mounting groove is vertically connected, and the second mounting groove is used to install a reinforcing rod.

[0023] This utility model also provides a sliding door, including a fixed door and a movable door that slides relative to the fixed door, and also includes a guide clamp structure as described above, wherein the lower end of the movable door is installed in the opening groove of the first base, and the fixed door is installed in the first mounting groove.

[0024] The beneficial effects of this utility model are the same as those of the above-mentioned guide clamp structure, and will not be repeated here. Attached Figure Description

[0035] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0036] "The bottom end of the second connecting end 12" means "the end of the second connecting end 12 that is away from the first connecting end 11"; "the bottom end of the bracket 21" means "the end of the bracket 21 that is away from the upper end of the limiting plate 2".

[0037] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7A guide clamp structure includes a first base 102, the first base 102 having an opening slot 101 capable of accommodating a door or window, the first base 102 comprising:

[0038] The guide plate 1 includes a first connecting end 11 and a second connecting end 12 disposed opposite to the first connecting end;

[0039] The limiting plate 2 includes a bracket 21, the first connecting end 11 is installed on the upper end of the limiting plate 2, the second connecting end 12 is located in the cavity of the bracket 21, and the bottom end of the second connecting end 12 is on the same horizontal line as the bottom end of the bracket 21.

[0040] Mounting bracket 3 includes a horizontal plate 301, which has a hinge lug 31 and a snap-fit ​​wall 32. The second connecting end 12 is hinged to the hinge lug 31 by a pin, and the snap-fit ​​wall 32 is matched and installed with the bracket 21.

[0041] In this technical solution, the first connecting end 11 and the second connecting end 12 of the guide plate 1 are located at the upper and lower ends of the limiting plate 2, respectively. The first connecting end 11 can be hinged to the upper end of the limiting plate 2 by a pin (that is, the upper end of the limiting plate 2 is provided with a pin connection hole, and the first connecting end 11 is also provided with a pin connection hole, and the pin passes through the pin connection hole of the first connecting end and the pin connection hole of the limiting plate 2 to achieve the hinge). The bottom end of the second connecting end 12 is on the same horizontal line as the bottom end of the bracket 21. The horizontal plate 301 of the mounting bracket 2 has a hinge ear 31 and a snap-fit ​​wall 32. The hinge ear 31 and the snap-fit ​​wall 32 are staggered. The snap-fit ​​wall 32 is located outside the hinge ear 21. The second connecting end of the guide plate 1 is located in the cavity of the bracket 21, and the second connecting end 12 is hinged to the hinge ear 31 by a pin (that is, the hinge ear 31 is provided with a pin connection hole, and the second connecting end 12 is also provided with a pin connection hole, and the pin passes through the pin connection hole). The pin connection hole of the second connecting end 12 and the pin connection hole of the hinge ear 31 realize the hinge. At this time, the snap-fit ​​wall 32 of the mounting bracket 3 is matched and installed in the bracket 21. In practice, the first connecting end 11 of the guide plate 1 is hinged to the upper end of the limiting plate 2. The limiting plate 2 also includes a main body 22. The bracket 21 is integrally set with the main body 22. The lower end of the limiting plate 2 is the bracket 21. Preferably, the bracket 21 is an L-shaped structural member composed of the bracket transverse end 21a and the bracket longitudinal end 21b. The two sides of the bracket 21 are snap-fit ​​walls 32 that are snapped into the mounting bracket 3. By adopting the guide clamp structure, the guide plate 1 pushes the limiting plate 2 to rotate, but the limiting plate 2 can also limit the large-scale rotation of the guide plate 1. When it is necessary to clean the dirt in the guide groove and other parts, the guide clamp structure can be disassembled for easy cleaning. Secondly, doors and windows of different thicknesses can be installed on the opening groove 101, which has strong versatility.

[0042] The specific assembly relationship between guide plate 1 and limit plate 2 is determined by... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the main body 22 has a through cavity 221, and the guide plate 1 is installed in the cavity 221; the left and right sides of the first connecting end 11 are respectively hinged to the two side walls of the cavity 221 by pins; the hinge ear 31 has a placement groove 311 in the middle, and the second connecting end 12 extends from the cavity 221 into the placement groove 311. In this embodiment, since the first connecting end 11 is hinged to the two side walls of the cavity 221, and the hinge ear 31 of the transverse plate 301 has a placement groove 311 in the middle, the second connecting end 12 extends out of the cavity 221 into the placement groove 311, the guide plate 1 limits the position, and when the second connecting end 12 rotates around the pin, the first connecting end 11 also rotates around the pin (the first connecting end 11 is set with an arc transition, which makes rotation convenient), driving the upper end of the limiting plate 2 to rotate. However, since the bracket 21 of the limiting plate 2 is installed in the snap-fit ​​wall 32 of the mounting bracket 3, and the guide clamp structure is installed on the platform surface (e.g., the ground), the rotation angle of the limiting plate 2 is already limited. Therefore, the limiting plate 2 rotates with a small amplitude, ensuring that the limiting plate 2 abuts against the door and window after the door and window are installed, ensuring the stability of the structure and improving the stability coefficient.

[0043] Specifically, the snap-fit ​​wall 32 has a vertical wall 321 and an arcuate groove wall 322 connected to the vertical wall 321; the transverse end 21a has an arcuate segment 211, and the longitudinal end 21b has a planar segment 212, which is connected to the arcuate segment 211; the planar segment 212 is connected to the vertical wall 321, the arcuate segment 211 is installed on the arcuate groove wall 322, the guide plate 1 moves around the pin, the arcuate segment 211 can move relative to the arcuate groove wall 322, and the planar segment 212 abuts against the vertical wall 321, thereby improving the stability coefficient of the guide clamp structure.

[0044] As a preferred embodiment, by Figure 3 As shown, the mounting bracket 3 also includes a quick-install bracket 302, which is connected to the transverse plate 301. One end of the quick-install bracket 302 forms the opening groove 101 with the guide plate 1 and the limiting plate 2. In this embodiment, the quick-install bracket 302 is provided with a clamping part 303 for installing another door or window. The other door or window can be a movable door (that can be pushed and pulled) or a fixed door (that cannot be pushed and pulled). The specific form of the door or window is not limited.

[0045] The specific connection method of the two doors and windows is determined by Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the guide clamp structure also includes a second base 103, one end of which has a clamping groove 104. The clamping groove 104 is provided with an insertion interface along its vertical direction, and the clamping part 303 is inserted into the clamping groove 104 along the direction of the insertion interface.

[0046] Furthermore, by Figure 7 As shown, the other end of the second base 103 is provided with a first mounting groove 105 and a second mounting groove 106. The first mounting groove 105 and the second mounting groove 106 are arranged opposite to each other and are open. The first mounting groove 105 is vertically connected and the second mounting groove 106 is used to install a reinforcing rod, resulting in a stable structure.

[0047] Depend on Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, this utility model embodiment also provides a sliding door, including a fixed door 4 and a movable door 5 that slides relative to the fixed door 4, and also includes a guide clamp structure as described above. The specific structure and related effects of the guide clamp structure can be referred to the above embodiment. The lower end of the movable door 5 is installed in the opening groove 101 of the first base 102, and the fixed door 4 is installed in the first mounting groove 105.

[0048] Since this sliding door adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.
