Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of keel structures, and more specifically, to a keel that is easy to install. Background Technology
[0002] As the framework of a suspended ceiling system, the keel primarily supports and secures the ceiling panels. It firmly connects the ceiling materials together, forming a unified structure. The keel not only serves a practical purpose but also possesses a decorative quality. Through different arrangements and combinations of keels, a rich variety of ceiling designs can be created to meet diverse decorative needs. Furthermore, the keel can also be used to divide space, creating a clear sense of layering and enhancing the spatial feel and aesthetics of the room. Combining the ceiling keel with decorative panels can significantly improve the interior decorative effect.
[0003] Currently, keels are divided into two types: top keels fixed to the top surface and board-jointed keels fixed to the boards. Top keels and board-jointed keels are generally fixed by drilling and screwing. In order to ensure the accuracy of the keel installation position, the hole positions need to be designed in advance, and the holes need to be precisely aligned during the installation process. This process is not conducive to improving the efficiency of keel installation. Therefore, we propose a keel that is easy to install. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems in related technologies, this utility model provides a keel that is easy to install and can solve the above problems.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:
[0006] A type of keel that is easy to install includes a top keel and a plate-jointed keel perpendicular to the bottom of the top keel. Both sides of the inner cavity of the top keel are integrally formed with a locking platform. The top of the plate-jointed keel is provided with several sets of buckle structures at equal intervals. The buckle structure includes left and right symmetrically arranged claws. A spring structure connects the two claws. The bottom ends of the two claws are individually rotatably set on the surface of the plate-jointed keel through a hinge.
[0007] Furthermore, the claw includes a 7-shaped claw rod, a vertical platform, and a thickened base that are fixedly connected from top to bottom. The thickened base is rotatably engaged with the hinge through a shaft pin, and the bottom end of the hinge is fixed to the surface of the plate keel.
[0008] Furthermore, the 7-shaped claw bar includes a horizontal section and an inclined section. The bottom surface of the horizontal section of the 7-shaped claw bar is provided with several protruding teeth at equal intervals, and the top surface of the clamping platform is provided with several tooth grooves at equal intervals that mesh with the protruding teeth.
[0009] Furthermore, the end of the card fitting platform near the "7" shaped claw bar is provided with a bevel, and when the "7" shaped claw bar is engaged with the card fitting platform, the bevel is in contact with the bevel section of the "7" shaped claw bar.
[0010] Furthermore, reinforcing ribs are fixedly installed between the card assembly platform and the vertical wall of the inner cavity of the top keel.
[0011] Furthermore, the springback structure includes a spring and support rods fixed to the opposing end faces of the two claws, with both support rods being embedded and connected to the spring.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The plate joint keel connecting claw of this application device engages with the matching platform of the inner cavity of the top keel. Since the claw can elastically and adaptively open and close, and can engage with the claw at any position in the inner cavity of the top keel, the installation of the plate joint keel and the top keel is not restricted by position, making the installation more flexible and convenient. After the claw engages with the matching platform, the protruding teeth are locked in the tooth groove, which facilitates the quick and stable installation of the plate joint keel and the top keel.

[0020] 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. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model discloses a keel that is easy to install, including a top keel 1 and a plate-jointed keel 3 perpendicular to the bottom of the top keel 1. Both sides of the inner cavity of the top keel 1 are integrally formed with a locking platform 4. The top of the plate-jointed keel 3 is provided with several sets of buckle structures at equal intervals. The buckle structure includes left and right symmetrically arranged claws 6. A spring structure 7 is connected between the two claws 6. The bottom ends of the two claws 6 are individually rotatably set on the surface of the plate-jointed keel 3 through a hinge 5. The spring structure 7 includes a spring and a support rod fixed to the opposite end faces of the two claws 6. The two support rods are embedded and connected to the spring.
[0022] Example 1: An expansion screw 2 passes through the top of the inner cavity of the top keel 1. The expansion screw 2 cooperates with the expansion sleeve pre-installed in the ceiling to fix the top keel 1. The hinge 5 consists of a base and a bushing. The bushing of the hinge 5 can rotate with the claw 6. The base of the hinge 5 is fixed to the surface of the plate keel 3 by bolts. A spring-loaded structure 7 is provided between the two opposing claws 6. The spring-loaded structure 7 includes a support rod with the two claws 6 facing each other. Both support rods are embedded in a spring. The steps for inserting the two claws 6 into the inner cavity of the top keel 1 are as follows: the two claws 6 are compressed towards each other, and the claws 6 move upward along the inclined surface 401 of the mounting platform 4 until the 7-shaped claw rod 603 engages with the top of the mounting platform 4. The spring rebound force makes the 7-shaped claw rod 603 and the mounting platform 4 stably engage and cooperate. The plate keel 3 is pressed down, so that the protruding tooth 9 is locked in the tooth groove 8. At this time, the plate keel 3 and the top keel 1 cannot move laterally relative to each other, thus achieving stable installation of the plate keel 3 and the top keel 1.
[0023] In the preferred technical solution, the claw 6 includes a 7-shaped claw rod 603, a vertical platform 601, and a thickened base 602, which are fixedly connected from top to bottom. The thickened base 602 is rotatably engaged with the hinge 5 through a shaft pin. The bottom end of the hinge 5 is fixed to the surface of the plate keel 3. The bottom end of the claw 6 is the thickened base 602, which is 4mm thicker than the vertical platform 601, in order to improve the load-bearing capacity of the claw 6.
[0024] In the preferred technical solution, the 7-shaped claw bar 603 includes a horizontal section and an inclined section. The bottom surface of the horizontal section of the 7-shaped claw bar 603 is provided with a number of protruding teeth 9 at equal intervals. The top surface of the mounting platform 4 is provided with a number of tooth grooves 8 at equal intervals that mesh with the protruding teeth 9.
[0025] In the preferred technical solution, the end of the clamping platform 4 near the 7-shaped claw rod 603 is provided with a bevel 401. When the 7-shaped claw rod 603 and the clamping platform 4 are engaged, the bevel 401 fits against the bevel section of the 7-shaped claw rod 603. The bevel 401 is used to guide the 7-shaped claw rod 603 to engage with the clamping platform 4.
[0026] In the preferred technical solution, a reinforcing rib is fixedly provided between the mounting platform 4 and the vertical wall of the inner cavity of the top keel 1. The reinforcing rib is used to strengthen the connection strength between the mounting platform 4 and the inner cavity of the top keel 1.
[0027] In summary, this embodiment provides a structure for quick and stable installation of the plate-jointed keel 3 and the top keel 1. The plate-jointed keel 3 is engaged with the locking claw 6 and the locking platform 4 inside the cavity of the top keel 1. Since the locking claw 6 can elastically and adaptively open and close, and can engage with the locking claw 6 at any position inside the cavity of the top keel 1, the installation of the plate-jointed keel 3 and the top keel 1 is not limited by position, making the installation more flexible and convenient. After the locking claw 6 engages with the locking platform 4, the protruding tooth 9 is locked in the tooth groove 8, so that the plate-jointed keel 3 and the top keel 1 are stably installed.
[0028] 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 should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
