Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of illuminated letter honeycomb border strips, and in particular to an illuminated letter honeycomb border strip. Background Technology

[0002] All mainstream illuminated signs for storefronts on the market (edge-bound signs, edgeless signs, super signs, resin signs) have a serious problem: either the edges crack, the panels collapse, or they fall off. Once the panels fall from a height, they will seriously threaten the safety of pedestrians and vehicles on the road.

[0003] The outer shell of the lettering has a welded edge, so there is no risk of it falling off. However, the panel is glued with glass glue, so there is still a risk of it collapsing.

[0004] The remaining three types are all made of flat materials, and the panels are glued together. Long-term exposure to the elements outdoors causes the glue to gradually age, eventually leading to the risk of peeling and edge cracking.

[0005] Therefore, we propose a honeycomb edge strip for illuminated letters. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the issues of panel collapse and edge chipping, while simultaneously considering panel light transmission, material production costs, ease of use, and the aesthetics of illuminated letters, a honeycomb edge strip for illuminated letters was invented after extensive testing. This strip transforms the original chemical bonding (glass glue or other adhesives) into a physical structural connection. Although the structure has changed from a flat material to a profile structure, the smooth and compact design keeps production costs under control, does not affect light transmission, and is indistinguishable from flat materials in practical use.

[0007] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0008] A honeycomb edge band for illuminated letters includes a stainless steel plate and stainless steel ribs. The stainless steel ribs are disposed at the edge of the stainless steel plate. The stainless steel plate and the stainless steel ribs are welded together using a fiber laser. The stainless steel plate and the stainless steel ribs are combined to form a complete honeycomb edge band. The stainless steel ribs have multiple round holes on their outer surface.

[0009] To solve the problems of panel collapse and edge cracking, while also considering panel light transmission, material production costs, ease of use, and the aesthetics of illuminated signs, a honeycomb edge strip was invented after extensive testing. It transforms the original chemical bonding (glass glue or other adhesives) into a physical structural connection. Although the structure has changed from a flat material to a profile structure, the structure is smooth and small, so the production cost is controllable, it does not affect light transmission, and it is no different from a flat material in actual use.

[0010] Furthermore, the plurality of the circular holes are arranged at equal intervals.

[0011] Furthermore, a panel is provided on the outer side of the stainless steel rib.

[0012] Furthermore, the panel is made of liquid acrylic.

[0013] Furthermore, liquid acrylic flows into the circular hole and fills it completely.

[0014] Furthermore, after the liquid acrylic solidifies, the acrylic inside the circular hole and the outer acrylic form a whole, and the panel and the stainless steel plate form a whole.

[0015] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. In order to solve the problems of panel collapse and edge cracking, while also considering panel light transmission, material production costs, ease of use, and the aesthetics of illuminated signs, a honeycomb edge strip was invented after a long period of testing. It changed the original chemical bond (glass glue or other adhesives) to a physical structural link. Although the structure changed from a flat material to a profile structure, the structure is smooth and small, so the production cost is controllable and does not affect the light transmission. In actual use, it is no different from a flat material. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Identical parts are indicated by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, while the terms "bottom surface," "top surface," "inner," and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific part, respectively.

[0022] Reference Figures 1-2As shown, a honeycomb edge band for illuminated characters is provided in a preferred embodiment of this utility model, comprising a stainless steel plate 1 and a stainless steel rib 2. The stainless steel rib 2 is disposed at the edge of the stainless steel plate 1. The stainless steel plate 1 and the stainless steel rib 2 are welded together using a fiber laser. The stainless steel plate 1 and the stainless steel rib 2 are combined to form a complete honeycomb edge band. Multiple round holes 4 are provided on the outside of the stainless steel rib 2.

[0023] To solve the problems of panel 3 collapse and edge cracking, while also ensuring panel 3 light transmission, material production cost, ease of material use, and the aesthetics of illuminated letters, a honeycomb edge strip was invented after a long period of testing. It changed the original chemical bond bonding (glass glue or other adhesives) to a physical structural link. Although the structure changed from a flat material to a profile structure, the structure is smooth and small, so the production cost is controllable, it does not affect the light transmission, and it is no different from a flat material in actual use.

[0024] Reference Figures 1-2 As shown, multiple circular holes 4 are arranged at equal intervals.

[0025] Multiple equally spaced circular holes 4 can increase the connection area between the liquid acrylic and the stainless steel plate 1 after curing, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the panel 3 and the stainless steel plate 1 and the stainless steel rib 2.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-2 As shown, a panel 3 is provided on the outer side of the stainless steel rib 2.

[0027] Reference Figures 1-2 As shown, panel 3 is made of liquid acrylic.

[0028] Reference Figures 1-2 As shown, liquid acrylic flows into the circular hole 4 and fills the circular hole 4 completely.

[0029] Reference Figures 1-2 As shown, after the liquid acrylic solidifies, the acrylic inside the circular hole 4 and the outer acrylic form a whole, and the panel 3 and the stainless steel plate 1 form a whole.

[0030] Conventional illuminated letter panels 3 use acrylic sheets, which is wasteful. In this device, panel 3 uses liquid acrylic. The liquid acrylic flows into the round hole 4 and fills it. After the liquid acrylic is cured, the cured liquid acrylic inside the round hole 4 and the cured liquid acrylic outside form a whole, which also indirectly forms a whole with the stainless steel plate 1. In this way, the bonding of conventional chemical bonds is transformed into a physical bond.

[0031] Specific implementation process: The production process of honeycomb side strip is as follows: flat material cleaning - small material cleaning - small material punching - small material forming - plasma cleaning - fiber laser welding of flat material and small material - plasma cleaning - spraying white paint - drying - material collection;

[0032] The process of using honeycomb edge strips is as follows: carving mold - bending honeycomb edge strips with a bending machine - shaping honeycomb edge strips - pouring liquid acrylic (solidifying liquid acrylic) - forming letter shells;

[0033] In this device, panel 3 is made of liquid acrylic. The liquid acrylic flows into the circular hole 4 and fills it completely. After the liquid acrylic is cured, the cured liquid acrylic inside the circular hole 4 and the cured liquid acrylic outside form a whole, and also indirectly form a whole with the stainless steel plate 1. In this way, the bonding of conventional chemical bonds is transformed into a physical bond.
