Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of curtain wall technology, and in particular to a connecting component for irregularly shaped unit curtain walls. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of modern architecture, unitized glass curtain walls have become the preferred exterior decoration solution for many landmark buildings and large-scale commercial projects due to their aesthetic appeal and efficient installation characteristics. However, as architectural design concepts continue to develop towards diversification and personalization, and unitized glass curtain walls with unique shapes become increasingly popular, their connecting components have revealed a series of problems that urgently need to be addressed.

[0003] From a structural design perspective, to accommodate unique architectural shapes such as hyperboloids and multi-faceted surfaces, connecting components must employ extremely complex geometric shapes and combinations. These components are often assembled from multiple parts of different shapes and sizes through precision machining. This not only increases the design complexity, posing significant challenges for engineers in calculating mechanical properties and stress distribution, but also imposes stringent requirements on machining precision during actual manufacturing. Any minute deviation can lead to inaccurate matching of components during assembly, thereby affecting the overall stability and reliability of the curtain wall structure.

[0004] In terms of sealing performance, the irregular shapes of specially designed connecting components present numerous challenges when sealing them with glass panels and curtain wall frames. Conventional sealing materials and processes are often ill-suited to their complex surface contours, leading to issues such as incomplete sealing and excessively large gaps. Once the seal fails, external pollutants such as rainwater, air, and dust can easily penetrate the curtain wall, affecting its sound and heat insulation performance, reducing the building's energy efficiency, and potentially causing metal components to rust and corrode, thus shortening the overall lifespan of the curtain wall. More seriously, under extreme weather conditions, such as heavy rain and strong winds, curtain walls with poor sealing performance may leak, damaging interior decoration and equipment, and affecting the normal use of the building.

The frame structure is designed to form the connecting components, which facilitates the installation of fixed unitized glass curtain walls on the frame structure. The aluminum alloy hanger 3 is fixed at one end between the aforementioned aluminum alloy vertical frame 1 and aluminum alloy horizontal frame 2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the prefabricated embedded part 4 set in the irregular wall surface 9. It is used to fix the frame structure based on the irregular wall surface 9, so that the connecting components can be set according to the shape of the irregular wall surface 9. At the same time, it simplifies the installation structure and installation process. The components that make up the connecting components do not need to be assembled after precision processing, which can effectively reduce the installation difficulty.

[0026] Figure 3 The schematic diagram illustrates the assembly structure of the connecting components of the irregularly shaped unitized curtain wall, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the aforementioned aluminum alloy bracket includes a first fixing section 31 and a fixing claw 33 fixedly disposed on one side of the first fixing section 31.

The fixing claw 33 is fixedly connected to the prefabricated embedded part 4. The aforementioned fixing claw 33 is fixedly disposed on one side of the first fixing section 31 using a triangular member, wherein the triangular member is a right triangle. The fixing claw 33 is fixed at one end, and the other end is fixed to one end of the first fixing section 31. By using the triangular member structure, the mechanical properties of the aluminum alloy bracket can be effectively enhanced, thereby meeting the load-bearing requirements of the connecting components.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, a second fixing section 32 is provided perpendicular to the first fixing section 31 and along the side away from the fixing claw 33. That is, the second fixing section 32 is provided perpendicularly to the side of the first fixing section 31 facing away from the fixing claw 33. The first fixing section 31 is fixed between the aluminum alloy horizontal frame 2 and the aluminum alloy vertical frame 1 with bolts, and the second fixing section 32 is fixed to the aluminum alloy vertical frame 1 with machine screws. The aforementioned first fixing section 31 and second fixing section 32 are respectively fixed on the two mutually perpendicular sides of the aluminum alloy vertical frame 1 to ensure a tight connection between the aluminum alloy vertical frame 1 and the aluminum alloy hanger 3, thereby ensuring the stability of the connecting component fixed on the irregular wall surface 9.

The first adjustment groove 41 and the second adjustment groove 54 are perpendicular to each other. The connector 5 is fixed to the precast embedded part 4 by bolts sequentially passing through the second adjustment groove 54 and the first adjustment groove 41. Through the first adjustment groove 41 on the precast embedded part 4 and the second adjustment groove 54 on the connector 5, the relative positions of the precast embedded part 4 and the connector 5 can be adjusted from two horizontal directions, thereby satisfying the need for position adjustment of the connecting components to a certain extent.

[0029] The aforementioned adapter 5 has a connecting section 53 on the side facing the aluminum alloy bracket. The end of the connecting section 53 is embedded in the fixing claw 33 and is integrated with the fixing claw 33 by bolts or other means.

A decorative aluminum alloy profile can also be provided along the vertical portion 92 of the aluminum alloy horizontal frame 2 away from the irregular wall surface 9, thereby fulfilling the decorative or protective function for the side where the tempered glass 7 is not provided.

[0032] The connecting components of the irregularly shaped unitized curtain wall are formed by using aluminum alloy vertical frames 1 and aluminum alloy horizontal frames 2. The connecting components are integrated with the irregularly shaped wall surface 9 by aluminum alloy hangers 3 and prefabricated embedded parts 4 set on the irregularly shaped wall surface 9. In the actual installation process, after the connecting structure composed of aluminum alloy vertical frames 1 and aluminum alloy horizontal frames 2 is built, the aluminum alloy hangers 3 are directly fixed between the aluminum alloy vertical frames 1 and aluminum alloy horizontal frames 2 during the construction process. Then, the aluminum alloy hangers 3 are fixed with the adapter 5 and the subsequent unitized curtain wall assembly process can be carried out. Alternatively, the aluminum alloy hangers are fixed with the adapter 5 first, and the vertical frames and aluminum alloy horizontal frames 2 are assembled to form the foundation of the connecting components with the aluminum alloy hangers as the fixing points. After the installation is completed, the subsequent unitized curtain wall assembly process can be carried out. By simplifying the connection components of irregularly shaped unitized curtain walls, there is no need to use complex geometric shapes and combinations to fit unique building shapes. The simple structural composition has obvious advantages in the installation process, reducing installation difficulty while ensuring installation quality. There are no issues with the sealing performance of unitized curtain walls. It can be applied to the installation of unitized curtain walls on the surfaces of most irregularly shaped buildings, and has a certain degree of versatility.
