[0024] Figure 2 This is a longitudinal section detail of the glass curtain wall provided in an embodiment of this utility model;

[0025] Figure 3 yes Figure 2 A magnified view of region A in the middle. Detailed Implementation

[0026] Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this invention will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a glass curtain wall, comprising:

[0028] Multiple horizontal keels 1;

[0029] Vertical keels fixed between the horizontal keels 1;

[0030] Subframe 2, which is fixedly connected to the vertical keel;

[0031] A glass panel 3 is fixedly connected to the sub-frame 2.

[0032] The glass curtain wall in this embodiment uses a steel main keel system, breaking away from the conventional continuous vertical keel scheme. Instead, it features a multi-layered structure with multiple continuous horizontal keels 1. The vertical keels are segmented and staggered, welded and fixed to the horizontal keels 1 to form a unified structure, serving as the supporting framework for the curtain wall. The glass panels 3 are bonded to the aluminum alloy sub-frames 2 using structural adhesive and fixed to the main keel by aluminum alloy pressure plates, forming a glass curtain wall system similar to a "brick grid" structure. Its main features are the segmented and staggered vertical keel design and the continuous horizontal keel arrangement.

[0033] To facilitate construction and installation, the following steps are adopted: First, a temporary vertical continuous keel is arranged at a horizontal spacing of 9.6m at the end of the curtain wall. Then, the horizontal keel 1 and the vertical keel are installed one by one from bottom to top and welded to each other. This method is used to complete the segmented installation of multiple horizontal keels 1 and vertical keels. At this time, some sections of the temporary vertical continuous keel are cut off, and small sections are retained as required, so as to form a curtain wall effect with a "brick grid" structure.

[0034] The glass curtain wall in this embodiment not only enhances the aesthetics of the building's appearance and ensures the long-term performance of the curtain wall, but also achieves efficient and safe installation through innovative connection frame design and installation technology.

[0035] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the plurality of transverse keels 1 form a multi-layer structure.

[0036] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the vertical keel includes: a first vertical keel 11 and a second vertical keel 12;

[0037] Both ends of the first vertical keel 11 and the second vertical keel 12 are fixedly connected to the horizontal keel 1;

[0038] The first vertical keel 11 and the second vertical keel 12 are arranged alternately.

[0039] In the above embodiment, multiple horizontal keels 1 are arranged horizontally along their length to form a multi-layer structure, and the first vertical keel 11 and the second vertical keel 12 are respectively fixed between the multi-layer structure formed by the horizontal keels 1. The first vertical keel 11 and the second vertical keel 12 are arranged alternately with a segmented staggered joint design.

[0040] like Figure 1 In the middle, the first layer consists of 3 complete glass bricks and 2 half glass bricks, and no vertical keel is set at both ends of this layer; the second layer consists of 4 complete glass bricks, and vertical keels are set at both ends of this layer. All the layers below are set according to this structure, forming a "brick grid" structure.

[0041] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the glass panel 3 is fixedly connected to the sub-frame 2 by structural adhesive 4.

[0042] In this embodiment, the glass panel 3 is fixed to the sub-frame 2 using structural adhesive 4. The sub-frame 2 is made of lightweight aluminum alloy, making it more convenient and labor-saving during handling and installation, thus improving construction efficiency.

[0043] Structural adhesive 4 possesses high bonding strength, firmly bonding the glass panels and sub-frames together to form a unified structure. This effectively resists external forces, such as wind loads and earthquakes, preventing relative displacement or detachment between the glass panels 3 and sub-frame 2, thus ensuring structural stability and safety. Because it eliminates the need for excessive mechanical connectors such as bolts and rivets, the glass curtain wall boasts a simpler, more streamlined appearance, creating a large-area all-glass mirror effect. This enhances the overall aesthetics and modernity of the building, better meeting the architectural design requirements for appearance.

[0044] Compared with traditional mechanical connection methods, structural adhesive 4 can make the stress distribution between glass panel 3 and sub-frame 2 more uniform during the bonding process, avoid local damage caused by stress concentration at the connection point, improve the load-bearing capacity of the entire connection part, and extend the service life.

[0045] After curing, the structural adhesive 4 forms a dense adhesive layer that effectively fills the tiny gaps between the glass panel 3 and the sub-frame 2, preventing air penetration and improving the airtightness of the curtain wall system.

[0046] Structural adhesive 4 has good aging resistance and corrosion resistance, and can maintain good adhesion and sealing effect during long-term use, thus extending the service life of glass curtain walls and further reducing costs.

[0047] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the sub-frame 2 is fixedly connected to the transverse keel 1 via a pressure plate 7.

[0048] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the pressure plate 7 is fixedly connected to the transverse keel 1 by a first bolt 61.

[0049] In the above embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the pressure plate 7 is installed inside the sub-frame 2. The two ends of the pressure plate 7 are pressed against the sub-frame 2. The first bolt 61 at the center passes through the pressure plate 7, so that the pressure plate 7, the sub-frame 2 and the transverse keel 1 are fixed.

[0050] Both ends of the pressure plate 7 are provided with protruding structures that are adapted to the protruding structures at the connection positions of the sub-frame 2 to prevent relative movement between the pressure plate 7 and the sub-frame 2. In this embodiment, the pressure plate 7 is made of aluminum alloy.

[0051] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, a groove is provided between adjacent glass panels 3.

[0052] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, a decorative buckle cover 5 is fixedly connected inside the groove.

[0053] In the above embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, there is a groove at the joint of two adjacent glass panels 3. To improve the aesthetics of the curtain wall, a decorative cover 5 is installed in the groove. The decorative cover 5 mainly serves a decorative function; it can cover the surface of the groove and change the appearance of the product.

[0054] The decorative buckle cover 5 can also prevent the components inside the groove from being damaged or contaminated by the outside world, thus playing a certain protective role.

[0055] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the decorative buckle cover 5 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 7 via a connector 8.

[0056] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the connector 8 is fixedly connected to the sub-frame 2 by a second bolt 62.

[0057] In the above embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the connector 8 is fixedly installed to the sub-frame 2 by the second bolt 62. The connector 8 is a slot structure with a grooved inner wall. The edge of the decorative buckle 5 is designed with a buckle that cooperates with the slot of the grooved inner wall of the connector 8. When the decorative buckle 5 is inserted into the groove, the buckle will engage with the slot to achieve fixation.

[0058] The curtain wall system of the above embodiments of this utility model uses a steel main keel system, breaking away from the conventional continuous vertical keel scheme and instead adopting a continuous horizontal keel design, with segmented and staggered vertical keels. The keels are welded together to form a whole structure, which serves as the supporting framework for the curtain wall. The glass panels are bonded to the aluminum alloy sub-frame with structural adhesive and fixed to the main keel by aluminum alloy pressure plates, forming a curtain wall system with a "brick grid" structure. This not only enhances the aesthetics of the building's appearance and ensures the long-term performance of the curtain wall, but also achieves efficient and safe installation of the curtain wall through innovative connection frame design and installation technology.

[0059] The above description is the preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
