Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] In building construction, the laying of roof tiles is a crucial step in ensuring the aesthetics and safety of the roof. However, in actual construction, problems such as unevenness of the original structural surface and deviations in the dimensions of the slope top and angle often make it difficult to accurately control the spacing and flatness of the tiles. Traditional construction methods often use simple tools such as wooden sticks for measurement. Although the operation is simple, it lacks precise measurement and positioning functions, which can easily lead to undesirable phenomena such as unevenness, collapse, and bulging. These not only affect the overall aesthetics but may also cause safety hazards such as loosening and falling off of tiles. Moreover, rework will waste materials, increase labor costs, and delay the construction period. Utility Model Content

The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments. Example
[0023] Reference Figures 1-3 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides a tile positioning device for pitched roofs, comprising:
[0024] The positioning mechanism 100 includes a tripod 101, a slope fine-tuning component 102 disposed on the outside of the tripod 101, and a slope angle fine-tuning component 103 disposed on the outside of the tripod 101.
[0025] The marking mechanism 200 includes a scale plate 201 fixedly installed on the outside of the tripod 101, and a steel wire 202 fixedly installed on the outside of the scale plate 201.
[0026] Among them, the scale plate 201 and scale strip 204 provide construction workers with a clear and visible reference benchmark with their intuitive scale markings. The two sides of the tripod 101 and the plumb line 203 that are parallel and perpendicular are right angles, while the lengths of the other two angles and three sides can be flexibly and accurately set according to the specific requirements of the construction drawings to meet the personalized needs of different pitched roofs.
[0027] Specifically, the marking mechanism 200 also includes a plumb bob 203 fixedly installed at the end of the steel wire 202, and a scale bar 204 fixedly installed on the outside of the scale plate 201. The scale plate 201 has a length, width and height of 20×100×285mm.
[0028] Among them, plumb line 203 and steel wire 202 together form a precise vertical and horizontal positioning system, ensuring the accurate and error-free laying of the tiles.
[0029] Furthermore, the slope fine-tuning component 102 includes a first threaded sleeve 102a fixedly installed on the outside of the tripod 101, a first screw 102b threadedly installed in the inner cavity of the first threaded sleeve 102a, and a first limiting sleeve 102c movably sleeved on the outside of the first screw 102b. The slope fine-tuning component 102 also includes a first rotating nut lock 102d threadedly installed on the outside of the first limiting sleeve 102c, and a first nut 102e threadedly installed on the outside of the first screw 102b. The first threaded sleeve 102a is fixedly installed on the outside of the tripod 101.
[0030] The slope fine-tuning component 102 achieves precise adjustment of the slope angle through the threaded engagement of the first threaded sleeve 102a and the first screw 102b, as well as the synergistic effect of the first limiting sleeve 102c and the first rotating nut locking buckle 102d; the first nut 102e further enhances the stability and reliability of the adjustment, ensuring that no accidental loosening occurs during construction, thereby providing precise angle control for tile laying and improving construction quality and efficiency.
[0031] Preferably, the slope adjustment component 103 includes a second threaded sleeve 103a fixedly installed on the outside of the tripod 101, a second screw 103b threadedly installed in the inner cavity of the second threaded sleeve 103a, and a second limiting sleeve 103c movably sleeved on the outside of the second screw 103b. The slope adjustment component 103 also includes a second rotating nut lock 103d threadedly installed on the outside of the second limiting sleeve 103c, and a second nut 103e threadedly installed on the outside of the second screw 103b.
[0032] Among them, the slope angle fine adjustment component 103 achieves precise adjustment of the slope angle height through the threaded engagement of the second threaded sleeve 103a and the second screw 103b, as well as the synergistic effect of the second limiting sleeve 103c and the second rotating nut locking buckle 103d; the second nut 103e further enhances the stability and reliability of the adjustment, ensuring that no accidental loosening occurs during construction, thereby providing precise height control for tile laying and improving construction quality and efficiency.
[0033] In use, firstly, the tripod 101 is placed securely on the outside of the slope angle, and the slope angle and slope height are adjusted by the slope fine-tuning component 102 and the slope angle fine-tuning component 103 respectively, until the plumb line 203 is strictly parallel to the edge of the tripod 101; then, using the scale reference provided by the scale plate 201 and scale strip 204 in the marking mechanism 200, the steel wire 202 is pulled as a horizontal and vertical positioning benchmark; the construction personnel lay the tiles according to the pre-marked scale, ensuring that the tile spacing and flatness meet the requirements; the adjusting components are fixed by the first rotating nut locking buckle 102d and the second rotating nut locking buckle 103d to ensure that there is no loosening during the construction process, and finally achieve efficient and accurate tile laying.
[0034] In summary, through the coordinated action of the tripod 101, slope fine-tuning component 102, and slope angle fine-tuning component 103 in the positioning mechanism 100, precise adjustment of the slope angle and slope angle height is achieved, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of tile laying. The scale plate 201, steel wire 202, plumb line 203, and scale strip 204 in the marking mechanism 200 jointly construct a precise vertical and horizontal positioning system, providing construction personnel with a clearly visible reference benchmark, significantly improving construction quality and efficiency. In addition, the reliable fastening performance of the first rotating nut locking buckle 102d and the second rotating nut locking buckle 103d ensures the stability of the adjusting components, prevents accidental loosening during construction, and further improves the safety and convenience of construction.
