Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sightseeing elevator cars, and in particular to a sightseeing elevator glass car wall structure and a sightseeing elevator. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, sightseeing elevators generally use a rigid connection between the glass panel and the metal frame for installation, which has the following technical drawbacks: First, the traditional method of fixing the glass panel to the frame structure using only long bolts makes the glass panel susceptible to vibration transmission during elevator operation, posing a risk of glass breakage. Second, the sealing structure often uses a single sealant, which is prone to cracking or aging under temperature and humidity changes and long-term vibration conditions, leading to seal failure. These problems are particularly problematic for high-speed elevators in high-rise buildings, where existing technology struggles to simultaneously meet the multiple requirements of vibration control, airtightness maintenance, and ease of installation and maintenance for the glass car.
[0003] To improve the airtightness and cushioning performance between the glass panel and the outer frame, some elevator car walls use an integrated frame around their perimeter. For example, the elevator car glass enclosure disclosed in utility model patent CN214114599U has multiple windows on the outer frame corresponding to the glass components, and uses rubber strips connected end to end as cushioning components. Compared with traditional car walls, this can improve the overall sealing and cushioning performance of the structure. However, since the frame is an integrated window, its size is fixed and cannot be adjusted, resulting in high production costs, complex inventory management, and the inability to achieve customized designs according to changes in glass panel size. In addition, relying on additional rubber pads as a shock-absorbing structure has problems such as cumbersome installation procedures and easy aging and detachment of shock-absorbing components. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, this utility model provides a sightseeing elevator glass car wall structure and a sightseeing elevator.
[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A sightseeing elevator glass car wall structure includes an outer frame composed of two horizontally symmetrically arranged frames and two vertically symmetrically arranged frames, and a glass panel fixed within the outer frame. Each of the two vertical frames includes a hollow square tube frame. A first side plate and a second side plate are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the square tube frame. A positioning baffle connects the first side plate and the second side plate. The square tube frame has an opening on the side opposite to the positioning baffle, and a first strip groove for installing the glass panel is formed between the first side plate, the second side plate, and the positioning baffle. The glass panel is inserted into the first strip groove. A positioning strip is provided between the first side plate and the glass panel. The first side plate has an inwardly protruding buckle at the opening end near the first strip groove. The side of the positioning strip connected to the first side plate has an abutting portion that abuts against the buckle of the first side plate. A first sealing lip and a second sealing lip are spaced apart on the side of the positioning strip near the glass panel, and the first and second sealing lips abut against the surface of the glass panel, respectively. The positioning baffle and the glass panel are fixed together by self-tapping screws.
[0007] Preferably, the positioning baffle is provided with a screw hole, one end of which is connected to the glass panel, and two positioning latches are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the other end of the screw hole. The self-tapping screw is inserted between the two positioning latches and passes through the screw hole. The two positioning latches are bent in the direction of the self-tapping screw, and the ends of the two positioning latches abut against the two sides of the self-tapping screw.
[0008] Preferably, a shock-absorbing sealing layer is also provided between the glass panel and the second side panel.
[0009] Preferably, a positioning groove is also formed on the inner wall of the first side plate, and the end of the groove is connected to the buckle.
[0010] Preferably, the horizontal frame is a hollow C-shaped square tube, and each of the two horizontal frames is provided with a second strip groove for installing the glass panel. The glass panel is inserted into the second strip groove, and the horizontal frame is fixed to the glass panel by screws.
[0011] Preferably, shock-absorbing sealing strips are also provided between the two sides of the glass panel and the two inner sidewalls of the second strip groove.
[0012] Preferably, the glass panel is laminated glass.
[0013] Preferably, both the horizontal frame and the vertical frame are integrally formed aluminum profiles, and the connection between the horizontal frame and the vertical frame is welded.
[0014] A sightseeing elevator, including the glass car wall structure described above.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model's technical solution are mainly reflected in:
[0016] 1. The vibration isolation performance improvement of the glass car wall structure of the sightseeing elevator disclosed in this solution is achieved through the synergistic effect of the vertical frame end positioning structure and the special-shaped sealing strip, forming a three-level vibration reduction system consisting of rigid screw positioning, elastic strip buffering, and flexible isolation of the anti-vibration sealing strip, thereby reducing the transmission of vibration of the glass panel. At the same time, the snap-on pre-compression installation method of the special-shaped sealing strip provides a dynamic compensation margin between the glass panel and the vertical frame, effectively coping with thermal expansion and contraction and vibration displacement, and enhancing the reliability of dynamic sealing. In addition, the use of a split replaceable sealing strip design allows for the individual replacement of damaged sections during maintenance, reducing maintenance costs.
[0017] 2. The modular frame design allows the vertical frame with shock-absorbing positioning structure to be freely combined with horizontal frame of various sizes, shortening the installation time of a single glass panel. A single frame system can be adapted to a variety of standard-sized glass panels, facilitating customized designs. At the same time, by optimizing the cross-sectional shape of the frame, the frame weight is reduced while maintaining the same strength, thus reducing elevator operating energy consumption. The self-tapping screws and positioning structure form a double-insurance fixing mechanism, thereby ensuring that the structural integrity is maintained even in the event of a single point of failure.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0023] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" in this solution are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying a ranking of importance, or implicitly specifying the number of technical features shown. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0024] This utility model discloses a glass car wall structure for a sightseeing elevator, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the outer frame consists of two horizontal frame edges 2 arranged symmetrically at the top and bottom, and two vertical frame edges 1 arranged symmetrically at the left and right, joined together, and a glass panel 3 fixed within the outer frame. The ends of the horizontal frame edges 2 and the vertical frame edges 1 are joined together to form a rectangular outer frame. The materials, splicing, and fixing methods of the horizontal frame edges 2 and the vertical frame edges 1 can vary. In one embodiment, both the horizontal frame edges 2 and the vertical frame edges 1 are integrally formed aluminum profiles, and the connection between the horizontal frame edges 2 and the vertical frame edges 1 is welded. In other embodiments, the horizontal frame edges 2 and the vertical frame edges 1 can also be made of other materials, such as stainless steel, galvanized square tubing, etc. The connection method can also refer to existing frame connection methods, such as screw riveting, glue connection, or fixing through a matching positioning structure, which will not be elaborated here.
[0025] Among them, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, both vertical frame frames 1 include hollow square tube frames. A first side plate 101 and a second side plate 102 are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the square tube frame. A positioning baffle 7 connects the first side plate 101 and the second side plate 102. The square tube frame has an opening on the side opposite to the positioning baffle 7, and a first strip groove 10 for installing the glass panel 3 is formed between the first side plate 101, the second side plate 102, and the positioning baffle 7. The glass panel 3 is inserted into the first strip groove 10. A positioning adhesive strip 6 is provided between the first side plate 101 and the glass panel 3. A protruding buckle 8 is formed on the first side plate 101 near the opening end of the first strip groove 10. An abutment portion 6 is provided on the side of the positioning adhesive strip 6 that connects to the first side plate 101, abutting against the buckle 8 of the first side plate 101. 01. The positioning strip 6 is provided with a first sealing lip 602 and a second sealing lip 603 at intervals on the side near the glass panel 3. The first sealing lip 602 and the second sealing lip 603 respectively abut against the surface of the glass panel 3, thereby sealingly connecting the positioning strip 6 between the glass panel 3 and the first side plate 101. Due to the irregular structure of the positioning strip 6 and the flexible nature of its material, it can ensure that even if the glass panel 3 is affected by vibration or temperature during elevator operation, there is a dynamic compensation margin between the glass panel 3 and the vertical frame 1, effectively coping with thermal expansion and contraction and vibration displacement, and enhancing the reliability of dynamic sealing. The positioning baffle 7 is also riveted and fixed to the glass panel 3 by self-tapping screws 5. The positioning baffle 7 is provided with screw holes, so that the self-tapping screws 5 pass through the screw holes and drill into the glass panel 3.
[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, one end of the screw hole of the positioning baffle 7 is connected to the glass panel 3, and two positioning latches 11 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the other end of the screw hole. The self-tapping screw 5 is inserted between the two positioning latches 11 and passes through the screw hole. The two positioning latches 11 are bent in the direction of the self-tapping screw 5, and the ends of the two positioning latches 11 abut against the two sides of the self-tapping screw 5, which further strengthens the firmness and stability of the connection between the self-tapping screw 5 and the positioning baffle 7, and prevents the self-tapping screw 5 from loosening due to vibration.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, a shockproof sealing layer 4 is further provided between the glass panel 3 and the second side panel 102. The shockproof sealing layer 4 can be made of rubber strips or other existing cushioning and sealing materials, such as rubber cushioning pads, etc., which will not be described in detail here.
[0028] like Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, a positioning groove 9 is also formed on the inner wall of the first side plate 101. The end of the groove 9 is connected to the buckle 8. The groove 9 can increase the contact surface of the buckle 8 on the one hand, and the positioning strip 6 can be installed along it on the other hand, which improves the convenience of installing the positioning strip 6 and further provides dynamic compensation margin.
[0029] In some embodiments, the horizontal frame 2 is a hollow C-shaped square tube, and each of the two horizontal frame 2 is provided with a second strip groove for installing the glass panel 3. The glass panel 3 is inserted into the second strip groove 10, and the horizontal frame 2 is fixed to the glass panel 3 by screws. In a preferred embodiment, shock-absorbing sealing strips are also provided between the two sides of the glass panel 3 and the two inner sidewalls of the second strip groove. The specific structure and arrangement of the C-shaped square tube structure and the shock-absorbing sealing strips can be referred to the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.
[0030] In one embodiment, the glass panel 3 may be made of laminated glass, wherein the interlayer of the laminated glass can effectively block sound wave vibration, and the sound insulation effect is better than that of ordinary glass. At the same time, it can withstand greater impact force and improve safety performance. In addition, other glass panel 3 materials that can be used in the prior art for elevator car walls may be used according to actual needs, which will not be elaborated here.
[0031] This utility model also discloses a sightseeing elevator, including the sightseeing elevator glass car wall structure as described above.
[0032] This utility model has many other embodiments. All technical solutions formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent transformation fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
