[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of quick-installation steel structure space frame connection devices, specifically a quick-installation steel structure space frame connection device. Background Technology

[0002] Space frame structures are spatial structures made up of multiple members connected by nodes in a certain grid pattern. They have advantages such as low spatial stress, light weight, high stiffness, and good seismic performance. They can be used as roofs for buildings such as stadiums, theaters, exhibition halls, waiting halls, stadium grandstand canopies, aircraft hangars, and workshops with large two-way column spacing.

[0003] A quick-installation steel structure space frame connection device, disclosed in publication number CN222275755U, includes a sphere and a tie rod. The sphere and tie rod are connected and fixed by a plug-in structure, which includes a first plug-in component and a second plug-in component. The first plug-in component includes a first socket on the side wall of the sphere, and the end of the tie rod is provided with a first insert that engages with the first socket. The second plug-in component includes a through groove on the side wall of the end of the tie rod, a force-bearing rod is movably connected to the through groove, a thread corresponding to the through groove is provided on the outer side of the end of the tie rod, and a drive nut that engages with the thread is provided on the outer side of the end of the tie rod. This quick-installation steel structure space frame connection device consists of a first plug-in component and a second plug-in component, which facilitates the rapid connection of the tie rod and the sphere, saving time and effort and improving efficiency. However, due to its relatively simple structure and fixed tie rod length, the overall structure is heavy and its angular weight makes it difficult to assemble during installation, resulting in poor flexibility during installation. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new quick-installation steel structure space frame connection device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a quick-installation steel structure space frame connection device, which has the advantages of being retractable and easy to adjust, and easy to align and assemble, thus solving the problems in the background art.

In use, the threaded heads are aligned with the threaded holes and rotated for assembly. During assembly, the nut is rotated to move it up and down along the external thread of the lower threaded rod, causing the lower threaded rod to move up and down inside the sleeve, thereby achieving extension or contraction, facilitating easier assembly and improving flexibility during the assembly process. By using a combination of a clamp and a clamping ball, the connection angle can be adjusted when assembling two spheres, further improving flexibility during assembly and facilitating alignment of the threaded head at the other end with the threaded hole, thus enhancing the overall practicality of the device.

[0006] Preferably, the connecting assembly further includes four sleeves, which are respectively fixedly connected to the outside of four threaded heads. Each of the four sleeves is rotatably connected to a nut, and a lower threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the nut. By rotating the nut, the lower threaded rod moves up and down along the external thread of the lower threaded rod, thereby allowing the lower threaded rod to move up and down inside the sleeve, which can achieve extension or contraction, so as to facilitate more convenient assembly during the assembly process.

[0007] Preferably, the sleeve is rotatably connected to the outside of the threaded head, and the rotatable connection ensures that the sleeve does not rotate when the threaded head rotates.

[0008] Preferably, a retaining sleeve is fixedly connected to the top of the lower threaded rod, and a retaining ball is fitted inside the retaining sleeve. An upper threaded rod is fixedly connected to the top of the retaining ball. By using the retaining sleeve and the retaining ball in combination, the connection angle can be adjusted when assembling the two balls, thereby improving the flexibility of the assembly process.

[0009] Preferably, a knob is rotatably connected to the outside of the lower threaded rod, and a retaining ring is sleeved on the outside of the lower threaded rod. The knob can be rotated to move up and down along the outside of the lower threaded rod and squeeze the retaining ring, so that the retaining ring squeezes the retaining sleeve to tighten the retaining ball, thereby improving the wrapping force of the retaining sleeve on the retaining ball and improving the limiting effect.

[0010] Preferably, the upper threaded rod has a structure communicating with the bottom of the lower threaded rod, including a sleeve, a nut, and a threaded head.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] 1. When using this utility model, the threaded head is aligned with the threaded hole and rotated for assembly. During the assembly process, the nut is rotated to make it rise and fall along the external thread of the lower threaded rod, so that the lower threaded rod moves up and down inside the sleeve, thereby achieving extension or contraction, so as to facilitate more convenient assembly and improve the flexibility of the assembly process.

[0013] II. This utility model, through the combination of a ferrule and a ball, enables the adjustment of the connection angle when assembling two balls, improving the flexibility of the assembly process, so as to align the threaded head of the other end with the threaded hole for installation, thereby improving the practicality of the overall device.
