[0017] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of one embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0018] This invention provides the following description with reference to the accompanying drawings to aid in a comprehensive understanding of the various embodiments of the invention as defined by the claims and their equivalents. The description includes various specific details to aid understanding, but these details should be considered exemplary only. Therefore, those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications can be made to the various embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention.

[0019] In the description of this utility model, the orientation descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0020] It should be understood that when one element (e.g., the first element) is “connected” to another element (e.g., the second element), the element may be directly connected to the other element, or there may be an intervening element (e.g., the third element) between the element and the other element.

[0021] An embodiment of this utility model provides an integrated glass canopy structure, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes a column 1, an integrated glass structure 2 fixed on one side of the column 1, the integrated glass structure 2 includes laminated glass 201, a U-shaped fixing part 202 provided on the fixed end of the laminated glass 201, and windproof structures 203 provided on the upper and lower sides of the U-shaped fixing part 202. The fixed end of the laminated glass 201 is inserted into the U-shaped fixing part 202, the outer end of the laminated glass 201 is suspended in the air, and structural adhesive 204 is injected between the adjacent surfaces of the laminated glass 201 and the U-shaped fixing part 202.

[0022] The integrated glass structure 2 is pre-assembled before installation. During installation, it can be quickly and easily mounted onto the column 1 using welding, bolts, or other methods. Similarly, for maintenance and replacement, simply remove the entire integrated glass structure 2 from the column 1 and replace it with a new one. The integrated design makes installation and disassembly more convenient. To better resist wind loads, the two columns 1 are reinforced with steel cores. In fact, the columns 1 are only for securing the integrated glass structure 2; the integrated glass structure 2 can also be installed on embedded parts in the wall or other structures. Due to its PVB film layer and other adhesive structure, the laminated glass 201 will not shatter even if broken, ensuring both aesthetics and safety. The fixed end of the laminated glass 201 is inserted into the U-shaped fixing part 202 and bonded to the U-shaped fixing part 202 by filling it with structural adhesive 204. Compared with the traditional hole fixing method, which is prone to glass breakage, and the method of fixing the laminated glass 201 by clamping it with clamping parts, since the awning needs to drain water, it is generally designed with a downward slope. The outer end of the laminated glass 201 is suspended in the air, and the clamping fixation is only partial. It is easy to slip and injure passers-by due to gravity. Filling it with structural adhesive 204 can make the U-shaped fixing part 202 connect with the laminated glass 201 over a large area, enhance the connection and prevent it from falling. Because the cantilevered laminated glass 201 is a purely linear structure, it will sway due to wind force. Therefore, windproof structures 203 are installed on both the upper and lower sides of the U-shaped fixing part 202 to resist the bending moment generated by wind load. Since the windproof structures 203 abut against the U-shaped fixing part 202, rather than directly against the laminated glass 201 structure, and are further cushioned by the structural adhesive 204, the problem of direct contact with the laminated glass 201 and subsequent breakage is avoided. The windproof structures 203 reduce the direct impact of wind on the laminated glass 201, increasing stability. This integrated glass canopy structure is firmly fixed, has excellent wind resistance, and is easy to install, maintain, and replace.

[0023] In some embodiments, reinforcing plates 205 are provided on both sides of the width direction of the U-shaped fixing part 202, and the reinforcing plates 205 are connected to the column 1. Since the integrated glass canopy is linear, there are fewer installation points during fixing. Reinforcing plates 205 can be added on both sides by welding or other fixing methods. The reinforcing plates 205 are then connected to the column 1 by bolts or other fixing structures. The reinforcing plates 205 are also pre-assembled as a whole. Multiple bolts can be installed on the top and bottom of the reinforcing plates 205 to connect to the column 1, which further improves the safety performance. In practice, the reinforcing plates 205 are made of 8mm thick steel plates, which combine strength and cost, achieving a balance between strength and cost.

[0024] In some embodiments, the laminated glass 201 and the U-shaped fixing part 202 are fastened together by fixing bolts 206. In order to further avoid the risk of the laminated glass 201 falling off due to ground vibration, gravity, etc., fixing bolts 206 are added and pass through the U-shaped fixing part 202 and the laminated glass 201 from bottom to top and are clamped and fixed by nuts. Since the space between the laminated glass 201 and the U-shaped fixing part 202 is filled with structural adhesive 204, the laminated glass 201 will not have the problem of being easily broken due to simply drilling holes in the glass. The fixing bolts 206 can also further clamp and fix the laminated glass 201.

[0025] Furthermore, two fixing bolts 206 are provided, which are respectively located at the inner quarter of both ends in the width direction of the laminated glass 201.

[0026] A fixing bolt 206 is provided at each of the two quarters of the width direction of the laminated glass 201, and the bolts are tightened symmetrically. This can reduce the number of bolts used and maximize the tightness between the laminated glass 201 and the U-shaped fixing part 202.

[0027] In some embodiments, the windproof structure 203 includes a first top rod 207 abutting against the upper side of the U-shaped fixing part 202 and a second top rod 208 abutting against the lower side of the U-shaped fixing part 202. Since the laminated glass 201 has a linear structure, the lateral wind load can be ignored. The first top rod 207 and the second top rod 208 cooperate with each other on their upper and lower sides to effectively resist the wind load on the upper and lower sides of the laminated glass 201.

[0028] Furthermore, the second push rod 208 abuts against the lower side of the tail end of the U-shaped fixing part 202, and the first push rod 207 abuts against the upper side of the middle end of the U-shaped fixing part 202. Since the laminated glass 201 has a 2% drainage slope, the first push rod 207 abutting against the upper side of the middle end and the second push rod 208 abutting against the lower side of the tail end provide better resistance to wind loads.

[0029] Furthermore, multiple windproof steel channels 209 are provided at intervals on the outer side of the end faces of the first top rod 207 and the second top rod 208 adjacent to the U-shaped fixing part 202. The windproof steel channels 209 provide effective support for the integrated glass canopy in the form of a skeleton, so as to ensure the stability of the integrated glass canopy structure and strengthen its stress.

[0030] Furthermore, the spacing between each windproof steel channel 209 is 350mm. This distance provides good fixation while controlling costs.

[0031] In some embodiments, an outer baffle structure 3 is provided on the outside of the U-shaped fixing part 202 and the windproof structure 203, and the gap between the outer baffle structure 3 and the laminated glass 201 is filled with waterproof sealant 301. The outer baffle structure 3 can effectively cover the internal structure of the integrated glass structure 2, improve the aesthetics, and also play a role in waterproofing and dustproofing. The waterproof sealant 301 can further prevent rainwater from entering the fixing end of the integrated glass canopy.

[0032] Furthermore, the upper side of the outer baffle structure 3 is fixed to the windproof structure 203. The installation and fixing of the outer baffle structure 3 to the windproof structure 203 facilitates disassembly and assembly, while the separate installation prevents damage to the upper structure due to swinging.

[0033] The terms and words used in the foregoing description and claims are not limited to their literal meaning, but are merely used by the applicant to enable a clear and consistent understanding of the present invention. Therefore, those skilled in the art should understand that the foregoing description of various embodiments of the present invention is for illustrative purposes only, and not intended to limit the present invention as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
