Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of irregularly shaped ceramic rod connection technology, specifically a large-size irregularly shaped ceramic rod connection support device. Background Technology

[0002] In architectural decoration, landscape design, and some artistic creations, irregularly shaped terracotta sticks are widely used in various structures and decorations due to their unique shapes and textures. With the continuous innovation of architectural design and artistic expression, the demand for large-sized irregularly shaped terracotta sticks is increasing.

[0003] In the connection of irregularly shaped ceramic rods, methods such as adhesive bonding and bolt fixing are typically used, leaving a lack of internal connection between adjacent rods. For large-sized irregularly shaped ceramic rods, the bonding strength of adhesive is insufficient to guarantee a stable connection over a long period. Especially in situations requiring significant external force or operating in complex environments, adhesive connections are prone to aging and detachment, leading to connection failure and impacting the overall structural safety and stability. Bolt fixing requires precise alignment during installation, which is difficult to achieve with large-sized irregularly shaped ceramic rods, making it challenging to guarantee accurate and stable connections.

[0004] While existing technologies may already offer solutions to the aforementioned problems, this case aims to provide an alternative or replacement technical solution. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problems raised in the background art, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a large-size irregularly shaped ceramic rod connecting support device, including a central frame, on which multiple internal support structures are installed in a circular array;

[0006] Each of the internal support structures includes an internally threaded sleeve, on which a top engagement assembly is movably mounted via threads. A connecting rod is movably inserted into the side wall of the internally threaded sleeve. A first spring post is mounted at one end of the connecting rod, and a top bar is mounted at one end of the first spring post. A second spring post is installed between the top bar and the outer wall of the internally threaded sleeve.

[0007] The top-fitting assembly includes a bolt, which is threadedly inserted into an internally threaded sleeve. A tapered post is installed at one end of the bolt, and the tapered post is movably fitted to one end of a connecting rod.

[0008] Preferably, the central frame includes an inner connecting ring, on which a plurality of decorative strips are arranged in a circular array, and a connecting strip is installed at one end of each of the decorative strips, and the internal threaded sleeve is installed on the connecting strip.

[0009] Preferably, the connecting rod has an arc-shaped surface at one end inside the internal threaded sleeve.

[0010] Preferably, the plane containing the upper end of the top bar is higher than the plane containing the upper end of the internal threaded sleeve.

[0011] Preferably, the number of the second spring posts is at least two.

[0012] Preferably, each of the aforementioned decorative strips has a U-shaped structure.

[0013] Beneficial effects

[0014] This utility model provides a large-size irregularly shaped ceramic rod connecting and supporting device, which has the following advantages compared with the prior art: The device is placed in the inner cavity of the irregularly shaped ceramic rod, and the first spring column and the second spring column adaptively adhere to the inner wall of the irregularly shaped ceramic rod. Then, the top fitting component causes multiple top strips to apply force together, so that the top strips are tightly attached to the inner wall of the irregularly shaped ceramic rod, thus fixing the device. At this time, the arrangement of multiple top strips follows the shape of the inner cavity of the irregularly shaped ceramic rod. Then, the cavity of another irregularly shaped ceramic rod is aligned with the top strips exposed on the outside of the irregularly shaped ceramic rod according to the arrangement of multiple top strips, and then the top strips are inserted. This realizes the quick and accurate connection of two irregularly shaped ceramic rods, and also facilitates the subsequent adhesive work. In addition, if the glue fails later, the device can also play a supporting role, improving the safety factor. Attached Figure Description

[0019] Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0020] Example: Please refer to Figure 1-3 A large-sized irregularly shaped ceramic rod connecting support device includes a central frame, on which multiple internal support structures are installed in a circular array;

[0021] It should be noted that when two irregularly shaped ceramic rods need to be connected, the staff holds the central frame and inserts multiple internal support structures into the inner cavity of the irregularly shaped ceramic rod.

[0022] Specifically, each internal support structure includes an internal threaded sleeve 1, a top engagement assembly is movably installed on the internal threaded sleeve 1 via threads, a connecting rod 2 is movably inserted into the side wall of the internal threaded sleeve 1, a first spring post 3 is installed at one end of the connecting rod 2, a top bar 4 is installed at one end of the first spring post 3, and a second spring post 5 is installed between the top bar 4 and the outer side wall of the internal threaded sleeve 1.

[0023] Specifically, the top-fitting assembly includes a bolt 6, which is threadedly inserted into an internally threaded sleeve 1. A tapered post 7 is installed at one end of the bolt 6, and the tapered post 7 is movably fitted to one end of the connecting rod 2.

[0024] It should be noted that multiple internal support structures extend into the inner cavity of the irregularly shaped ceramic rod, leaving a section above the top bar 4 exposed outside the rod. Multiple second spring columns 5 are compressed, and multiple top bars 4 adhere to the inner wall of the irregularly shaped ceramic rod, temporarily fixing the device inside. Then, by using a screwdriver to rotate the bolt 6 on the internally threaded sleeve 1, the bolt 6 moves the conical column 7 downwards, pushing the connecting rod 2 outwards, increasing the pressure of the top bars 4 on the inner wall of the ceramic rod. When the conical column 7 pushes the connecting rod 2, the first spring column 3 is compressed, providing elastic cushioning to prevent damage to the inner wall of the ceramic rod from rigid impact. Simultaneously... Its elastic restoring force ensures that the top strip 4 always fits against the inner wall and adapts to small deformations. When all bolts 6 are tightened, multiple top strips 4 work together to make the top strip 4 fit tightly against the inner wall of the irregular ceramic rod, thus fixing the device. At this time, the arrangement of multiple top strips 4 follows the shape of the inner cavity of the irregular ceramic rod. Then, the cavity of another irregular ceramic rod is aligned with the top strip 4 exposed on the outside of the irregular ceramic rod according to the arrangement of multiple top strips 4, and then the top strip 4 is inserted. This achieves a quick and accurate connection between the two irregular ceramic rods, and also facilitates subsequent gluing work. Furthermore, if the glue fails later, the device can also provide support, improving the safety factor.

[0025] As a preferred and further option, the central frame includes an inner connecting ring 8, on which a plurality of shaped strips 9 are arranged in a circular array, and a connecting strip 10 is installed at one end of each of the plurality of shaped strips 9. An internal threaded sleeve 1 is installed on the connecting strip 10. The inner connecting ring 8 is used to connect the plurality of shaped strips 9, the plurality of connecting strips 10 is used to connect the plurality of internal threaded sleeves 1, and the plurality of shaped strips 9 are used for the user to hold the device.

[0026] As a preferred and further option, the connecting rod 2 is provided with an arc-shaped surface 11 at one end inside the internal threaded sleeve 1 for mutual contact between the connecting rod 2 and the tapered column 7;

[0027] Preferably, and further, the plane at the upper end of the top bar 4 is higher than the plane at the upper end of the internal thread sleeve 1, for splicing two irregularly shaped ceramic rods.

[0028] Preferably, and further still, the number of second spring posts 5 is at least two, to ensure the balance of the top bar 4;

[0029] As an even better option, each of the decorative strips 9 has a U-shaped structure, making it easy for staff to pinch and fit together with their fingers.

[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is limited by the appended claims and their equivalents.
