Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to building construction technology, specifically to a glass rib installation auxiliary device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of architectural engineering technology, glass curtain walls are increasingly widely used on building facades, greatly enhancing the visual appeal of buildings. All-glass curtain walls offer excellent transparency, providing a wide field of vision, and their simple design gives the building facade a more upscale feel. They are widely used in the exterior wall systems of commercial buildings, high-end hotels, and other public buildings. Because public buildings generally have high floor heights, all-glass curtain walls require large spans, necessitating the use of large-span glass ribs to support the glass. Since the glass ribs are thin sheet materials with relatively low in-plane stiffness, they are prone to bending and deformation when installed using electric suction cup trolleys. This can cause them to detach from the suction cups, resulting in broken glass ribs that not only cause property damage but also pose a significant safety hazard. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an auxiliary device for installing glass ribs, so as to solve the shortcomings of existing electric suction cup carts that cause glass ribs to deform and fall off during glass rib installation.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a glass rib installation auxiliary device, comprising a steel beam, flanges fixedly installed at both ends of the steel beam, a central support fixedly installed in the middle of the steel beam, and fixed supports provided between the central support and the two flanges. The top of the fixed supports and the top of the central support are on the same horizontal plane. Two tie bolt units are symmetrically arranged on the inner side of the fixed supports, and two tie bolt units are symmetrically arranged on the outer side of the steel beam. Two tie bolt units are symmetrically arranged on the inner side of the central support, and two tie bolt units are symmetrically arranged on the outer side of the steel beam.
[0005] Furthermore, the tie bolt unit one includes:
[0006] Bolt post one is slidably installed inside the fixed bracket, and the top of bolt post one is threaded.
[0007] Limiting plate one, which is sleeved on the outside of bolt post one;
[0008] Nut 1 is threadedly connected to the top of bolt post 1, and nut 1 is located above limit plate 1.
[0009] Furthermore, the second tie bolt unit includes:
[0010] Bolt post two is slidably installed on the inner side of the middle bracket, and the top of bolt post two is threaded;
[0011] Limiting plate two, which is sleeved on the outside of bolt post two;
[0012] Nut 2 is threadedly connected to the top of bolt post 2, and nut 2 is located above limit plate 2.
[0013] Furthermore, a fixing frame is provided between the limiting plate and the fixing bracket. The fixing frame is sleeved on the outside of the bolt column. A lifting ring is fixedly installed on one side of the fixing frame in the width direction. A rubber pad is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixing frame.
[0014] Furthermore, a central frame is provided between the central support and the second limiting plate, the central frame is sleeved on the outside of the second bolt column, and a rubber pad is fixedly installed at the bottom of the central frame.
[0015] Furthermore, rubber pads are fixedly installed on the top of the steel beam, the fixed bracket, and the middle bracket.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the glass rib installation auxiliary device provided by this utility model increases the planar rigidity of the glass rib through a steel beam. Fixed brackets are set on both sides of the steel beam to support the glass rib, and a fixed frame is set above the fixed brackets. The fixed brackets and the fixed frame are connected by tie bolt unit one. The glass rib is fixed between the fixed frame and the fixed bracket by rotating nut one, which increases the planar rigidity of the glass rib during hoisting. The planar rigidity of the glass rib is further enhanced by the auxiliary fixing and support of the middle bracket and the middle frame through tie bolt unit two. The distance can be adjusted by sliding bolt column one and bolt column two, so that the device can be used for glass rib installation of different widths. Rotating nut one and nut two adjusts the position of the fixed frame and the middle frame, so that the device can be used for glass rib installation of different thicknesses. The side of the device that contacts the glass rib is covered with a rubber pad to prevent the hard steel components from scratching the glass. When in use, the glass ribs are assembled in modular sections using flanges. The number of connecting units can be selected according to the length of the glass ribs. Four lifting rings are set on each assembly unit. When using an electric suction cup trolley for installation, steel wire ropes are used to connect the suction cup trolley to the mechanical arm through the lifting rings for secondary protection, preventing the glass ribs from falling to the ground due to the suction cups detaching.
