Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of unitized curtain wall systems, and more specifically, to a super-tower variable angle zigzag energy-saving unitized curtain wall system. Background Technology

[0002] Unitized curtain wall systems are a product of the combination of building industrialization and curtain wall technology. Their emergence not only meets the quality requirements of high-rise buildings, but also improves the efficiency of high-rise building construction and solves the pain point of large errors in traditional frame curtain walls. With the development of green buildings and intelligent curtain walls, unitized curtain walls will be further upgraded towards low-carbon and intelligent directions. Unitized curtain wall systems are mainly used in the construction fields of super high-rise buildings, large public buildings and irregular-shaped buildings.

[0003] A search revealed that publication number CN119243910A discloses an open-type unitized curtain wall system, including unitized steel beams installed on a wall surface. Each unitized steel beam contains a unitized curtain wall body, and symmetrically arranged receiving grooves are provided on both the upper and lower inner walls of the unitized steel beams. Through the arrangement of a first sliding groove and a third telescopic rod, the first sliding groove provides precise guidance for the curtain wall body, ensuring that the unitized curtain wall body quickly and accurately reaches the predetermined position, improving installation efficiency. Combined with the arrangement of a second sliding groove and the first telescopic rod, a concealed fixing of the unitized curtain wall body is achieved. This fixing method not only ensures the stability of the curtain wall body but also reduces the exposure of connectors through the concealed design, making the entire curtain wall system more aesthetically pleasing. Concealed installation not only enhances the overall visual effect of the building but also effectively reduces the direct impact of external factors on the connectors, protecting the structure to a certain extent and extending its service life. In the process of realizing this utility model, the inventors discovered the following problems with the existing technology:

[0004] Existing unitized curtain wall systems require the beams connecting the curtain wall glass to the building to be designed with a certain curvature to meet the building's design requirements due to the building's zigzag design. However, when multiple curtain wall glass panels are installed on the surface of beams with curvature or zigzag changes, the glass panels cannot fit together perfectly, resulting in a reduction in the overall airtightness of the building. Furthermore, most traditional unitized curtain wall systems use tempered glass, which contains impurities such as nickel sulfide. These impurities can undergo a phase transformation when heated or subjected to stress changes, leading to spontaneous breakage and even causing "glass rain."

[0005] Therefore, a super-tower variable angle broken line energy-saving unit curtain wall system is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a super tower variable angle zigzag energy-saving unit curtain wall system to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a super-tower variable angle zigzag energy-saving unit curtain wall system, including an installation mechanism and a curtain wall mechanism. The curtain wall mechanism is installed on the side of the installation mechanism, and the curtain wall mechanism includes a main component and a connecting component, and the connecting component is installed on the top of the main component.

[0012] Preferably, the curtain wall mechanism is composed of multiple unit modules hinged together by the connecting assembly. The connection angle between adjacent unit modules is adjustable, forming a continuous zigzag facade. Each unit module includes the main component. The curtain wall glass of the main component is triple silver Low-E coated insulated glass, with argon gas filling the insulated layer. The glass edge is sealed to the frame by a warm edge spacer. The connecting assembly includes a dual-degree-of-freedom rotary joint, allowing the unit module to be adjusted in the horizontal and vertical directions by 5°-30°, and the angle is locked by the double-headed bolts.

[0013] Preferably, the anti-loosening washer is a double-sided serrated stainless steel washer, the inner diameter of which is interference-fitted with the screw of the first fixing bolt, and the outer edge of the washer is provided with 8-12 radial protrusions, which are embedded in the recesses on the surface of the first connecting block.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] As attached Figures 1 to 4 The super-tower variable angle zigzag energy-saving unit curtain wall system shown includes an installation mechanism 1 and a curtain wall mechanism 2.

Then, the curtain wall mechanism 2 is assembled with the installation mechanism 1 on the building. Finally, the main component 3 is connected to the building at a certain angle according to the building design using the connecting components 4. After the connection is completed, sealing materials or sealant need to be filled between the connecting components 4 to ensure the overall sealing of the unitized curtain wall system.

[0029] Based on Example 1, the solution in Example 1 will be further described in detail below with reference to the specific working method, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown below, see details:

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the installation mechanism 1 includes a column 5, a crossbeam 6, and a fixing component 7. The crossbeam 6 is bolted to the side of the column 5, and the fixing component 7 is bolted to the side of the crossbeam 6 away from the column 5. Before installing the curtain wall mechanism 2, the worker needs to assemble the installation mechanism 1 itself. First, the column 5 and the crossbeam 6 need to be assembled with bolts, and then the fixing component 7 is fixed to the surface of the crossbeam 6 with bolts.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the fixing component 7 includes a first connecting block 8, a first fixing bolt 9, and an anti-loosening washer 10. The first fixing bolt 9 is installed on the top of the first connecting block 8, and the anti-loosening washer 10 is placed on the outer diameter surface of the first fixing bolt 9. When the worker wants to fix the curtain wall mechanism 2 to the building surface through the fixing component 7, he needs to first align the bolt holes at the upper and lower ends of the main body component 3 with the bolt holes on the first connecting block 8, then place the anti-loosening washer 10 on the outer diameter surface of the first fixing bolt, and use a wrench to screw it into the bolt holes of the first connecting block 8 and the main body component 3 to fix the curtain wall mechanism 2.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the main component 3 includes a curtain wall glass 11, a frame 12, and a sealing strip 13. The curtain wall glass 11 is installed on the inner wall surface of the frame 12, and the sealing strip 13 is installed on the side of the curtain wall glass 11. A glass clamp is installed in the inner groove of the frame 12 by bolts, which can fix the curtain wall glass 11 in the frame 12. When the worker needs to assemble the main component 3, he needs to fix the curtain wall glass 11 into the frame 12 by the glass clamp, and then the sealing strip 13 is glued at the junction of the frame 12 and the curtain wall glass 11 to ensure the overall sealing of the main component 3.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the connecting component 4 includes a first positioning block 14, a second positioning block 15, a second connecting block 16, and a double-ended bolt 17. The second connecting block 16 is placed below the first positioning block 14, the second positioning block 15 is placed below the second connecting block 16, and the double-ended bolt 17 is installed below the second positioning block 15. When two main components 3 are fixed to the building, the worker needs to align the holes in the middle of the first positioning block 14 and the second positioning block 15 of the first main component 3 and the second connecting block 16 of the second main component 3, and then use the double-ended bolt 17 to fix them together.

[0034] The curtain wall mechanism 2 is composed of multiple unit modules that are hinged together by connecting components 4. The connection angle between adjacent unit modules is adjustable, forming a continuous zigzag facade. Each unit module includes a main component 3. The curtain wall glass 11 of the main component 3 is triple silver Low-E coated insulated glass, and the insulated layer is filled with argon gas. The glass edge is sealed to the frame 12 by a warm edge spacer. The connecting component 4 includes a double-degree-of-freedom rotary joint, which allows the unit module to be adjusted in the horizontal and vertical directions by 5°-30°, and the angle is locked by double-headed bolts 17.

[0035] The anti-loosening washer 10 is a double-sided serrated stainless steel washer, whose inner diameter is interference-fitted with the screw of the first fixing bolt 9. The outer edge of the washer is provided with 8-12 radial protrusions, which are embedded in the recesses on the surface of the first connecting block 8. The opposing surfaces of the first positioning block 14 and the second positioning block 15 are provided with mutually meshing toothed structures, with the tooth angles spaced at 15° intervals. The two ends of the double-ended bolt 17 are respectively threaded to the frame 12 of the adjacent unit module, and the tooth meshing angle is locked by tightening pressure.

[0036] The sealing strip 13 is made of EPDM rubber and has a hollow multi-cavity structure. The sealing strip has buckles on both sides, which fit into the grooves on the inner wall of the frame 12. The hollow cavity is filled with foamed thermal insulation material.

[0037] The working process of this utility model is as follows: First, when the worker assembles the unit curtain wall system with the building, he first needs to assemble the installation mechanism 1 itself. When assembling the installation mechanism 1, he needs to use bolts to assemble and fix the column 5 and the beam 6. Then, the first connecting block 8 of the fixing component 7 is fixed to the surface of the beam 6 with bolts. After the installation mechanism 1 itself is assembled, the worker needs to assemble the main component 3 of the curtain wall mechanism 2. He needs to fix the curtain wall glass 11 to the frame 12 with glass clamps. Then, at the junction of the frame 12 and the curtain wall glass 11, the sealing strip 13 is glued to ensure the overall sealing of the main component 3.

[0038] After both components are assembled, workers need to use cranes and other tools to transport the curtain wall mechanism 2 to the installation location. Then, the main component 3 is fixed to the building surface using the fixing component 7. First, workers need to align the bolt holes at the top and bottom of the frame 12 with the bolt holes on the first connecting block 8. Then, anti-loosening washers 10 are placed on the outer diameter surface of the first fixing screw, and wrenches are used to screw them into the bolt holes of the first connecting block 8 and the main component 3 to fix the main component 3. When two main components 3 are fixed to the building, workers need to align the holes in the first positioning block 14 and the second positioning block 15 of the first main component 3 with the holes in the second connecting block 16 of the second main component 3. Then, double-ended bolts 17 are used to fix them. After fixing, workers also need to fill the gaps between the connecting components 4 with sealing materials or spray sealant to ensure the overall sealing of the unit curtain wall system. The above is the working principle of this super tower variable angle zigzag energy-saving unit curtain wall system.
