Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of glass curtain walls, and specifically relates to a glass curtain wall connection structure. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most framed glass curtain wall installations use two methods for installing glass support plates. One method involves fixing the glass support plate to the aluminum alloy crossbeam using self-tapping screws, while the other involves threading the glass support plate through grooves on the crossbeam. When using the first method, the self-tapping screws experience vertical shear force. Over time, gaps and cracks appear in the screws, causing them to loosen or even fall off. Consequently, the glass support plate fails to support the glass, and eventually, the glass will fall under its own weight, posing a significant safety hazard. The second method requires the glass support plate to be installed before the crossbeams; otherwise, it cannot be installed after the crossbeams are in place, indicating a flaw in the installation process.
[0003] Therefore, there is a need to provide an improved technical solution that addresses the shortcomings of the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a glass curtain wall connection structure includes a horizontal beam 2, glass curtain walls 3, pressure plates 7, and support blocks 9. The horizontal beam 2 is fixed to a column 1. The outer sidewall of the horizontal beam 2 is on the same plane as the outer sidewall of the column 1. A connecting protrusion extending out of the column 1 is provided on the horizontal beam 2. The connecting protrusion extends into the space between two longitudinally adjacent glass curtain walls 3. The connecting protrusion and the horizontal beam 2 are integrally formed aluminum alloy profiles. The two glass curtain walls 3 are located on both sides of the horizontal beam 2. A first adhesive strip 12 corresponding to the glass curtain wall 3 is provided on both sides of the horizontal beam 2. The first adhesive strip 12 is an EPDM adhesive strip. A strip-shaped third slot is provided on both sides of the horizontal beam 2. The third slot is dovetail-shaped. A dovetail-shaped protrusion corresponding to the third slot is provided on the side of the first adhesive strip 12, so as to fix the first adhesive strip 12.
[0029] The pressure plate 7 is connected to the connecting protrusion via the connector 4. The width of the connector 4 is adapted to the connecting protrusion, which facilitates the installation of the glass curtain wall 3. The connector 4 has a locking station on the side away from the crossbeam 2. The locking station is used to connect the locking bolt 6. The pressure plate 7 is connected to the locking station via the locking bolt 6. The pressure plate 7 extends to both sides of the glass curtain wall 3. Under the action of the locking bolt 6, it can press the glass curtain wall 3, thereby forming a compression with the first adhesive strip 12 to meet the installation requirements of the glass curtain wall 3. The support block 9 is set between the connector 4 and the glass curtain wall 3. The pressure plate 7 is a continuous aluminum alloy profile. The support block 9 is a rubber strip. The support block 9 is placed on the side of the glass curtain wall 3 away from the crossbeam 2 to support and limit the glass curtain wall 3, ensuring a flexible connection between the two. The glass curtain wall 3 is double-layer hollow tempered ultra-clear glass.
[0030] In an optional embodiment, the crossbeam 2 is provided with a first slot on the side near the glass curtain wall 3. The first slot is a strip plate extending toward the connecting protrusion, so that the openings of the two first slots point to the two sides of the crossbeam 2 respectively. There is a gap between the first slot and the connecting protrusion for the positioning member 11. At least the first slot above the connecting protrusion is connected to an L-shaped positioning member 11, so as to support the glass curtain wall 3 before the locking bolt 6 is tightened. Above the positioning member 11 is a pad corresponding to the side of the glass curtain wall 3 near the crossbeam 2. The pad is made of rubber, so that the glass curtain wall 3 can be supported by the restriction of the first slot.
[0031] In an optional embodiment, a cover plate 5 is fastened to the pressure plate 7. The cover plate 5 has a C-shaped cross section and is made of aluminum alloy profile. V-shaped grooves extending along its length are provided on both sides of the pressure plate 7. The V-shaped grooves are usually provided. The inner wall of the cover plate 5 is provided with a limiting protrusion that matches the V-shaped groove. The limiting protrusion extends to the end face of the cover plate 5 on the side near the pressure plate 7, thereby forming a guide opening. The installation requirements of the cover plate 5 can be met by pressing with external force.
[0032] A second slot is provided on each side, and a second adhesive strip 8 corresponding to the glass curtain wall 3 is provided on the second slot. The second adhesive strip 8 is an EPDM rubber strip, which is pressed and sealed with the glass curtain wall 3 after the locking bolt 6 is tightened. The pressure plate 7 corresponds to the drain outlet 14 on the upper surface of the connector 4. There are multiple drain outlets 14, which are distributed at intervals on the pressure plate 7, so as to avoid water leakage caused by the second adhesive strip 8 not sealing properly. A drip outlet 10 is provided on the lower side of the cover plate 5 to drain the seepage water through the drip outlet 10.
[0033] In one optional embodiment, multiple columns 1 are longitudinally arranged on the exterior of the building. The columns 1 are made of aluminum alloy profiles or galvanized square tubes. The multiple columns 1 are spaced apart. Between any two adjacent columns 1, multiple spaced crossbeams 2 are provided. The crossbeams 2 are square profiles. The crossbeams 2 have a square closed cavity on the upper side and an open cavity facing downwards. The columns 1 are connected to the corresponding open cavity connectors 4 by screws. The connectors 4 are square hollow profiles with shapes adapted to the connectors 4. The ends are provided with end plates for connecting to the columns 1, thereby fixing them to the columns 1 by screws. A sealing plate is fastened to the opening of the open cavity. Limiting protrusions are provided on both sides of the open cavity. Corresponding connecting grooves are provided on both sides of the sealing plate.
[0034] In an optional embodiment, the connector 4 is connected to the protrusion by tenons. The tenons are made of aluminum alloy profiles and are plate-shaped. Tenons are provided at both ends of the tenon cross-section. The tenons are dovetail-shaped. The connecting protrusion and the connector 4 are provided with mortises corresponding to the tenons. The mortises are dovetail-shaped to ensure a stable connection. The tenons are plate-shaped structures. Two tenons are connected to the connecting protrusion and the connector 4 respectively. The two tenons form a stable support structure to ensure support for the glass curtain wall 3.
[0035] A foam filling strip 13 is provided between the glass curtain wall 3 and the tenon to support and further seal the glass curtain wall 3 and the tenon. The connector 4 has a groove on the side away from the connecting protrusion as a locking position. The bolt head of the locking bolt 6 can slide along the groove. The locking bolt 6 is slidably assembled in the groove for position adjustment. After the locking bolt 6 is in place, it passes through the pressure plate 7 and is connected to the nut. The nut restricts the pressure plate 7 to press the glass curtain wall 3.
[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be within the scope of protection of the pending claims of the present utility model.
