Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of awning technology, and in particular relates to a profile structure for outdoor awning frame construction. Background Technology

[0002] Awnings are common building accessories used to shield and protect against sunlight, rain, snow, wind, sand, and even falling objects from architectural components such as doors, windows, pavilions, and balconies. Awnings generally consist of a frame, awning panels, and a front eave. Existing frames are typically fixed using L-shaped angle brackets and screws; the frame's stability relies entirely on the tightening force of the screws, and loosening is prone to occur during assembly. Utility Model Content

[0003] The summary section of this application is intended to provide a brief overview of the concepts, which will be described in detail in the detailed description section below. This summary section is not intended to identify key or essential features of the claimed technical solutions, nor is it intended to limit the scope of the claimed technical solutions.

[0004] To address the technical problems mentioned in the background section, some embodiments of this application provide a profile structure for outdoor awning erection, including:

[0005] The connector is provided with at least one hook.

[0006] The fixed beam is provided with a slot that mates with the hook portion;

[0007] The connector is equipped with at least two support plates. The hooks of the connector engage with the slots of the fixing beam, and the combination of at least two support plates significantly improves the overall structural stability. The snap-fit ​​design of the hooks and slots ensures even force distribution, avoiding the loosening issues of traditional screws with a single point of stress. The double support plates provide dual support, further dispersing the load-bearing pressure and effectively preventing deformation or cracking of the aluminum material due to single-point stress, thus greatly improving the load-bearing capacity and service life of the bracket.

[0008] Preferably, the hook includes an L-shaped plate and an insert plate disposed on the side wall of the L-shaped plate, the insert plate being insertable into a slot.

[0009] Preferably, the fixed beam is screwed with screws, and the connector is provided with mounting holes that mate with the screws.

[0010] Preferably, the end of the tray is provided with an inclined surface.

[0011] This application provides a profile structure for outdoor awning frames with high stability. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While some embodiments of this disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of this disclosure. It should be understood that the accompanying drawings and embodiments of this disclosure are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0022] It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this disclosure can be combined with each other.

[0023] It should be noted that the concepts of "first" and "second" mentioned in this disclosure are used only to distinguish different devices, modules or units, and are not used to limit the order of functions performed by these devices, modules or units or their interdependencies.

[0024] It should be noted that the terms "a" and "a plurality of" used in this disclosure are illustrative rather than restrictive, and those skilled in the art should understand that, unless otherwise expressly indicated in the context, they should be understood as "one or more".

[0025] This disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, an outdoor awning frame structure includes a connector 1 and a fixing beam 2. The connector 1 has a hook 11 and at least two support plates 12. The fixing beam 2 has a slot 21 that mates with the hook 11. During installation, the hook 11 is simply inserted into the slot 21 of the fixing beam 2. The engagement of the hook of the connector with the slot of the fixing beam, combined with the at least two support plates, significantly improves the stability of the overall structure. The snap-fit ​​design of the hook and slot ensures even distribution of force, avoiding the defect of traditional screws that are prone to loosening due to a single point of force. The double support plates provide double support, further dispersing the load-bearing pressure and effectively preventing deformation or cracking of the aluminum material due to single-point force, thus greatly improving the load-bearing capacity and service life of the frame.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment, the hook 11 includes an L-shaped plate 111 and an insert plate 112. The insert plate 112 is fixed to the side wall of the L-shaped plate 111 and can be inserted into the slot 21. The support plate 12 is vertically fixed to the L-shaped plate 111. The hook 11 adopts a combination structure of the L-shaped plate 111 and the side wall insert plate 112, which enhances the mechanical interlocking effect between the connector 1 and the fixing beam 2. The L-shaped plate 111 provides lateral support, while the tight fit between the insert plate 112 and the slot 21 forms a longitudinal limit, ensuring the stability of the connector 1 in multiple directions. This design not only simplifies the installation process (fixing can be completed by direct insertion), but also reduces the risk of dislocation caused by vibration or external impact, and significantly improves the deformation resistance of the structure.

[0028] In other embodiments, the fixed beam 2 is screwed with screws 3, and the connector 1 has mounting holes that mate with the screws 3. The fixed beam 2 is screwed to the mounting holes of the connector 1 via screws 3, realizing a dual fixing mechanism (hook-and-loop fit + screw 3 locking) between the connector 1 and the fixed beam 2. This design retains the quick installation advantage of the hook-and-loop structure, while further reinforcing the connection point with screws 3, effectively preventing loosening of the connection due to long-term use or extreme weather, and providing convenience for subsequent adjustment or disassembly, thus balancing stability and flexibility.

[0029] In other embodiments, the end of the tray 12 is provided with an inclined surface 121.

[0030] The above description is merely a selection of preferred embodiments of this disclosure and an explanation of the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the invention involved in the embodiments of this disclosure is not limited to technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-described technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-described technical features or their equivalents without departing from the above-described inventive concept. For example, technical solutions formed by substituting the above-described features with (but not limited to) technical features with similar functions disclosed in the embodiments of this disclosure.
