Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of assembly technology, and in particular to an aluminum profile connector. Background Technology
[0002] There are many products on the market made of aluminum profiles, such as cages for pets and livestock, greenhouses, and large steel sheds. These can all be built using aluminum profiles. During the construction process, various connectors are needed for connection. A greenhouse or cage needs to be assembled by splicing together aluminum profiles, connectors, and plastic panels.
[0003] In existing greenhouses and pet / livestock cages, there is usually a roof with the same structure as the building. At the corners where the roof connects to the cage or greenhouse body below, a multi-joint connector is needed to form the shape of the roof. Ordinary multi-joint connectors are square columns in multiple directions for aluminum profiles to be installed. This traditional multi-joint connector has poor stability and is inconvenient to install. The roof of the assembled greenhouse or pet / livestock cage is prone to deformation. Due to the unstable connection, it can also bring significant safety hazards. In addition, the connection method of ordinary connectors is relatively fixed and cannot be used for sunrooms or cages with different shapes. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problem that existing connectors and plugs have relatively fixed connection methods, limited functionality, and are not applicable to sunrooms or cages of different shapes, this application provides an aluminum profile plug-in component.

[0009] Optionally, the connector body is hollow inside, and a number of reinforcing ribs are provided on the inner wall of the connector body.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the hollow interior of the connector body reduces the weight of the connector body, and several reinforcing ribs improve the structural strength of the connector body.
[0011] Optionally, a detachable end cap is provided on the upper part of the connector body.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the end cap is used to seal the upper end of the connector body and cover the connection between the aluminum profile and the connector body, improving both aesthetics and waterproof performance.
[0013] Optionally, the bottom edge of the end cap is provided with a protrusion, and the upper end of the reinforcing rib inside the connector body is provided with a slot, and the protrusion engages with the slot.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the end cap can be detachably connected to the main body of the connector through the cooperation of the protrusion and the slot, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the connector.
[0015] Optionally, the bottom edge of the end cap extends outward to form an upper extension parallel to the lower extension.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper extension and the lower extension are set in parallel. The upper extension covers the connection between the aluminum profile and the lower extension, which improves the aesthetics and also serves as a waterproofing function.
[0017] Optionally, the lower extension surface is provided with at least one connection hole.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting hole is used for fixed connection with the aluminum profile, thereby improving the structural strength of the connection.

[0032] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0033] This embodiment discloses an aluminum profile connector.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 An aluminum profile connector includes a connector body 1 and an end cap 2. The end cap 2 is detachably connected to the connector body 1. The connector body 1 and the end cap 2 are configured as hexagonal structures, with an outwardly extending connector block 3 on one side. The connector block 3 is adapted to the inner cavity shape of the aluminum profile. The bottom edge of the connector body 1, except for the side with the connector block 3, has a lower extension 4 extending outward. The lower extension 4 has a connection hole 6 for connecting with the aluminum profile. The edge of the end cap 2 has an upper extension 5 parallel to the lower extension 4.
[0035] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The connector body 1 is hollow inside and has several reinforcing ribs 7 on its inner wall. The upper end of the reinforcing rib 7 is provided with a slot 8. The bottom of the end cap 2 is provided with an annular protrusion 9. When the end cap 2 is connected to the connector body 1, the protrusion 9 is embedded in the slot 8 at the upper end of the reinforcing rib 7. The end cap 2 is connected to the connector body 1 through the cooperation of the protrusion 9 and the slot 8.
[0036] The working principle of an aluminum profile connector is as follows:
[0037] Reference Figure 5 The main body 1 of the connector is connected to the crossbeam 10 through the connector block 3 and fixed at the connection with bolts. The shape of the main body 1 of the connector is set according to the number of support rods 11, so that the lower extension 4 forms multiple connection parts. The ends of the support rods 11 are fixedly connected to the lower extension 4 with bolts. The number of support rods 11 can be adjusted arbitrarily according to structural needs. After the support rods 11 are connected to the main body 1 of the connector, the end cap 2 is connected to the main body 1 of the connector. The upper extension 5 extending outward from the edge of the end cap 2 covers the connection between the support rods 11 and the lower extension 4, improving the aesthetics. By covering the connection between the support rods 11 and the lower extension 4, the waterproof effect is improved.
[0038] In summary, the connector body in this application is designed with a polygonal structure. The structure of the connector body can be adjusted according to the number of connecting rods, allowing the crossbeam to be connected to multiple connecting rods. This makes it suitable for connecting aluminum profiles of different structures, expanding the connector's applicability. The connector body has outwardly extending lower extensions along its edges, which connect to the aluminum profiles, improving the structural strength of the connection. The connection method is simple and easy to operate. A detachable end cap is provided on top of the connector body, detachably connecting to it for improved ease of assembly and disassembly. An upper extension extends outward from the edge of the end cap, parallel to the lower extension, enhancing the overall aesthetics. Simultaneously, the upper extension covers the connection between the aluminum profile and the lower extension, improving waterproofing. Therefore, this application effectively overcomes the various shortcomings of existing technologies and possesses high industrial applicability.
[0039] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this application. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this application should still be covered within the protection scope of this application.
