They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0021] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0022] An embodiment of this utility model discloses a panel assembly for use in curtain walls.

[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-4 This describes the specific design of this board assembly.

[0024] Specifically, the board assembly includes a substrate 1 and a plurality of board units 2 spaced apart on the surface of the substrate 1. The first end of each board unit 2 is fixed to the substrate 1 and the opposite second end is engaged with the first end of the adjacent board unit 2.

[0025] During assembly, the first end of each panel unit 2 is firmly fixed to the base plate 1, providing a stable foundation support for the entire panel structure. The opposite second end of each panel unit 2 engages with the first end of adjacent panel units 2, enabling rapid connection between adjacent panel units 2. Furthermore, multiple panel units 2 are arranged at intervals on the surface of the base plate 1. This arrangement facilitates production, processing, and transportation, and also benefits installation personnel. During assembly, the panel units 2 are sequentially engaged according to a predetermined interval. Because each panel unit 2 closely cooperates with its adjacent units, the entire panel system forms an organic whole, allowing forces to be evenly distributed between the panels, thus ensuring the overall structural strength and stability.

[0026] This simplified snap-fit ​​design allows construction workers to quickly assemble the panels, reducing installation time and labor costs. Compared to traditional panel assembly methods, it improves installation efficiency, reduces construction difficulty and procedures, and offers convenient modular installation, significantly shortening the construction cycle and improving project progress. Furthermore, since each panel unit 2 has the same structure, the assembly ensures consistent splicing precision, uniform seams, and a neat and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

[0027] Meanwhile, the tight interlocking structure effectively reduces seam dimensions and enhances the sealing performance of the panels, effectively preventing the intrusion of water, dust, and other impurities, making it suitable for environments with high sealing requirements. Finally, the panel has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, and can be customized according to different application scenarios and customer needs, making it suitable for various building and industrial fields, such as building curtain walls, and has broad application prospects.

[0028] In summary, the panel assembly of this utility model can reduce the splicing size between adjacent panel units 2, resulting in a uniform and aesthetically pleasing splicing appearance; at the same time, it can also achieve convenient and modular installation, effectively reducing construction difficulty and procedures.

[0029] It should be noted that this panel assembly can be arranged in different directions depending on the actual situation, for example... Figure 3 Horizontal arrangement in the middle, or for example Figure 4 The central vertical placement is configured.

[0030] Specifically, each board unit 2 has a fixing part 21 at its first end and a snap-fit ​​groove 22 formed between the fixing part 21 and the board unit 2, and a snap-fit ​​part 23 at its second end that forms a snap-fit ​​structure with the snap-fit ​​groove 22 of the adjacent board unit 2.

[0031] During assembly, simply insert the snap-fit ​​part 23 of one panel unit 2 into the snap-fit ​​groove 22 of the adjacent panel unit 2, and then use the fixing part 21 for simple fixation to complete the assembly. The operation is simple and quick. Compared with traditional connection methods, the installation time can be greatly shortened, improving construction efficiency. Especially in large-scale panel installation projects, it can effectively save labor and time costs and speed up the project progress.

[0032] Furthermore, the precise fit between the snap-fit ​​groove 22 and the snap-fit ​​part 23 allows the splice size between the board units 2 to be precisely controlled within a very small tolerance range, resulting in uniform and consistent splices. This visually presents a high degree of neatness and aesthetics, enhancing the overall quality and decorative effect of the product and meeting the needs of application scenarios with high appearance requirements, such as high-end architectural decoration and home renovation.

[0033] Of course, in other embodiments, the snap-fit ​​structure between adjacent plate units 2 can also be, for example, a dovetail groove is provided at the first end of one plate unit 2, and the second end of the adjacent plate unit 2 is processed into a matching dovetail tenon; or, for example, a T-slot is provided at the first end of one plate unit 2, and a T-head is provided at the second end of the adjacent plate unit 2, with the size of the T-head adapted to the T-slot.

[0034] Specifically, in any of the board units 2, the fixing part 21 includes a fixing vertical section 211 fixed to the board unit 2 and a fixing horizontal section 212 fixed to the fixing vertical section 211. The fixing horizontal section 212 is provided with a snap-fit ​​section 24 facing the surface of the board unit 2. A slot forming a snap-fit ​​groove 22 is formed between the snap-fit ​​section 24 and the board unit 2 for the snap-fit ​​part 23 of the adjacent board unit 2 to be inserted.

[0035] When splicing panels, simply align the snap-fit ​​portion 23 of adjacent panel units 2 with the groove formed by the snap-fit ​​section 24 and the panel unit 2, and push them in to complete the snap-fit. The entire process is simple and intuitive, requiring no complex tools or advanced operating skills. Therefore, it can greatly improve installation efficiency, significantly shorten the construction cycle, and reduce labor costs. Furthermore, the design of this fixing part 21 and snap-fit ​​structure is relatively simple and regular, making it easy to achieve standardized production. Panel units 2 of different batches and specifications can be successfully spliced ​​as long as they follow the same design standards. This not only helps to improve production efficiency and reduce production costs, but also makes the panel system widely applicable, able to meet the diverse needs of various construction, decoration, and industrial fields, and promote the market promotion and application of the product.

[0036] Specifically, in any plate unit 2, the snap-fit ​​section 24 includes a snap-fit ​​vertical section 241 fixed to the fixed horizontal section 212 and a snap-fit ​​horizontal section 242 fixed to the snap-fit ​​vertical section 241. The snap-fit ​​horizontal section 242 is used to allow the snap-fit ​​part 23 of the adjacent plate unit 2 to be inserted and form an anti-detachment structure with the snap-fit ​​block 231 provided on the snap-fit ​​part 23.

[0037] When the snap-fit ​​part 23 of the adjacent board unit 2 is inserted into the snap-fit ​​groove 22, the snap-fit ​​transverse section 242 and the snap-fit ​​block 231 on the snap-fit ​​part 23 of the adjacent board unit 2 cooperate with each other to form an interlocking anti-detachment structure, which can ensure that the connection between the board units 2 is tight and stable and will not easily loosen or fall off, greatly improving the overall stability of the board splicing structure.

[0038] Specifically, each panel unit 2 is arranged along the same direction and at the same angle of inclination. This uniform arrangement and consistent angle of inclination create a neat and uniform visual effect after the panels are joined, greatly enhancing the overall aesthetics and sense of quality, whether used in high-end building curtain walls, interior decorative background walls, or modern industrial product designs. Furthermore, there is no need to expend significant effort determining the panel splicing direction and adjusting the installation angle; simply following established standards allows for the rapid completion of large-area panel installations. More importantly, because the panels have the same angle of inclination and are arranged regularly, the gaps between adjacent panels are tight and uniform, providing excellent conditions for the use of sealing materials.

[0039] Specifically, each plate unit 2 has a reinforcing rib 25 fixed to its surface facing the substrate 1. This configuration significantly enhances the load-bearing capacity of the plate unit 2 and ensures its stability during long-term use.

[0040] Specifically, this sheet metal assembly also includes an L-shaped steel bar 3, which is fixed to the other surface of the substrate 1. The fixing part 21 at one end of each sheet metal unit 2, the substrate 1, and the L-shaped steel bar 3 are fixed together by fasteners 26. This arrangement provides strong support for the substrate 1 and multiple sheet metal units 2 through the L-shaped steel bar 3, thereby improving the overall structural strength and stability. Specifically, the fasteners 26 can be bolts or screws.

[0041] Specifically, when the substrate 1 is vertically arranged, the second end of each board unit 2 is located above its own first end, so that the opening of the snap-fit ​​groove 22 faces downward. Since this board assembly can also be used in rainy conditions, i.e. as a waterproof component for awnings, by positioning the second end of the board unit 2 above its own first end, the snap-fit ​​portion 23 of the second end of any board unit 2 will snap into the snap-fit ​​groove 22 of the first end of the adjacent board unit 2. Therefore, after multiple board units 2 are assembled, rainwater will flow from the second end of the board unit 2 to the first end. Simultaneously, because the opening of the snap-fit ​​groove 22 faces downward, rainwater will hardly flow into the snap-fit ​​groove 22, thus improving the overall waterproof performance.

[0042] An embodiment of this utility model also discloses a curtain wall, including the aforementioned panel assembly for use in a curtain wall. Therefore, it is understood that this curtain wall possesses all the beneficial effects of any of the technical solutions of the panel assemblies in the embodiments of this application, which will not be elaborated upon here.

It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
