Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of construction, and in particular to a general-purpose composite keel structure for aluminum ceilings. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of architectural decoration, aluminum ceiling panels are widely used in commercial and residential spaces due to their lightweight, fire-resistant, and corrosion-resistant properties. The ceiling frame, as the supporting structure, directly affects installation efficiency and overall stability.

[0003] Traditional keel structures typically consist of main and secondary keels assembled perpendicularly at opposite angles using fasteners, with bolts or clips used to lock them at a 90° right angle. However, this traditional approach has significant drawbacks in practical applications.

[0004] Existing connectors only support the connection of main and secondary keels at a fixed angle (usually perpendicular intersection), and cannot adjust the intersection angle of the keels (such as acute angle, obtuse angle, or asymmetrical angle) according to the needs of irregular ceilings, curved surfaces, or special spatial layouts. Traditional locking components (such as bolts or clips) lack angle adjustment functions, and the angle of the main and secondary keels cannot be changed once fixed. Based on this, we propose a universal metal aluminum composite ceiling keel structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the technical problem of inconvenient adjustment of existing keel angles, this utility model provides a universal metal aluminum composite keel structure for ceilings.

[0006] This utility model is achieved using the following technical solution: a general-purpose metal aluminum composite ceiling keel structure, comprising:

[0007] The main keel is long and narrow, used to support the ceiling panels;

[0008] The secondary keel is set perpendicularly to the main keel and is fixed to the main keel by adjusting and locking components.

[0009] The adjustment assembly is installed at both ends of the main keel and includes a mounting plate. The mounting plate is welded to the side of the main keel. The surface of the mounting plate has an adjustment groove, which is a longitudinal elongated through hole. A threaded sleeve is installed on the surface of the adjustment groove. A fixing screw passes through the internal threads of the adjustment groove and the threaded sleeve. A handle is connected to the top of the fixing screw for adjusting the tightness of the fixing screw.

[0010] The locking assembly includes a mounting base, which is fixedly installed above the mounting plate. A mounting platform is fixedly connected above the mounting base. A locking screw passes through the surface of the mounting platform and is connected to the handle.

[0011] The bottom end of the locking screw is connected to a movable part, and the connection between the movable part and the bottom end of the locking screw is through a movable shaft. A deflection shaft passes through the surface of the movable part and passes through the movable part and the deflection seat. The top end of the movable part is connected to a locking block.

[0012] The locking assembly's mounting base is installed above the mounting plate, and the locking screw is driven by rotating the handle. The movable part at the bottom of the locking screw is linked to the deflection seat via a movable axis and a deflection axis; when the locking screw is tightened, the movable part deflects around the deflection axis, and the locking block deflects with the movement of the movable part, pressing against the secondary keel contact surface.

[0013] As a further optimization of this utility model, it should be noted that the mounting plate and the main keel are reinforced with rivets to ensure the load-bearing strength of the adjustment component and the stability of the adjustment component when supporting the ceiling panel.

[0014] As a further optimization of this utility model, the main keel and the secondary keel are vertically and crosswise connected by an adjustment component and a locking component. The adjustment component is installed at both ends of the main keel, and the fixing screw passes through the adjustment groove and the threaded sleeve. The screw can be tightened or loosened by rotating the handle.

[0015] As a further optimization of this utility model, the position of the secondary keel can be freely adjusted before use. Before use, the tilt angle of the secondary keel is adjusted, and after the angle adjustment is completed, it is fixed by the adjustment component. After tightening, the end of the fixing screw abuts against the surface of the secondary keel to fix it at the required angle.

[0016] As a further optimization of this utility model, one end of the fixing screw is connected to the handle, and the other end of the fixing screw abuts against the surface of the secondary keel.

[0017] As a further optimization of this utility model, the inner side of the locking block is provided with anti-slip texture, which further enhances the friction and ensures no slippage after fixing, thus achieving a tight lock.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0019] 1. This utility model, through the cooperative design of the elongated adjustment groove and the fixing screw in the adjustment component, enables the secondary keel to freely adjust the tilt angle (such as acute angle, obtuse angle or non-right angle) on the main keel, which solves the limitation of traditional keels that only support vertical fixation, and perfectly adapts to the special spatial layout needs such as irregular ceilings and curved shapes.

[0020] 2. This utility model employs a multi-axis linkage structure with a movable axis and a deflection axis in the locking assembly, enabling the locking block to adaptively deflect according to changes in the angle of the secondary keel, and to tightly press against the surface of the secondary keel through anti-slip textures. This design ensures locking stability at any angle while effectively preventing keel displacement or loosening after construction.

[0021] 3. This utility model employs a step-by-step operation of the adjustment and locking components: first, the angle of the secondary keel is quickly adjusted using the handle, and then it is locked with a single button using the grip, significantly improving construction efficiency. Compared to traditional solutions that require repeated bolt removal, this structure simplifies the installation process and reduces labor costs.

[0022] In summary, the composite keel structure of this utility model is compatible with standard aluminum ceiling panels, requires no special connectors, has strong versatility, and reduces renovation costs. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0029] Example 1:

[0030] Please combine Figures 1-3 This embodiment proposes a general-purpose aluminum composite ceiling keel structure, including:

[0031] Main keel 1, which is long and narrow, is used to support the ceiling panels;

[0032] Secondary keel 2 is arranged perpendicularly to the main keel 1 and is fixed to the main keel 1 by adjusting component 3 and locking component 4;

[0033] It should be noted that the mounting plate 31 is reinforced with the main keel 1 by rivets to ensure the load-bearing strength of the adjustment component 3 and to ensure the stability of the adjustment component 3 when supporting the ceiling panel.

[0034] Adjustment component 3 is installed at both ends of the main keel 1. It includes mounting plate 31, which is welded to the side of the main keel 1. The surface of the mounting plate 31 is provided with adjustment groove 34, which is a longitudinal elongated through hole. A threaded sleeve 35 is installed on the surface of the adjustment groove 34. The internal threads of the adjustment groove 34 and the threaded sleeve 35 pass through a fixing screw 33. The top end of the fixing screw 33 is connected to a handle 32 for adjusting the tightness of the fixing screw 33.

[0035] Specifically, the main keel 1 and the secondary keel 2 are vertically and crosswise connected by an adjusting assembly 3 and a locking assembly 4. The adjusting assembly 3 is installed at both ends of the main keel, and the fixing screw 33 passes through the adjusting groove 34 and the threaded sleeve 35. The screw can be tightened or loosened by rotating the handle 32. When loosened, the secondary keel 2 can be freely adjusted in position. Before use, the tilt angle of the secondary keel 2 should be adjusted, and then fixed by the adjusting assembly 3. When tightened, the end of the fixing screw 33 abuts against the surface of the secondary keel 2, fixing it at the required angle.

[0036] Furthermore, one end of the fixing screw 33 is connected to the handle 32, and the other end of the fixing screw 33 abuts against the surface of the secondary keel 2.

[0037] The locking assembly 4 includes a fixing seat 41, which is fixedly installed above the mounting plate 31. A fixing platform 42 is fixedly connected above the fixing seat 41. A locking screw 43 passes through the surface of the fixing platform 42 and is connected to the handle 44.

[0038] The bottom end of the locking screw 43 is connected to a movable part 45. The connection between the movable part 45 and the bottom end of the locking screw 43 is through a movable shaft 46. A deflection shaft 47 passes through the surface of the movable part 45. The deflection shaft 47 passes through the movable part 45 and the deflection seat 48. The top end of the movable part 45 is connected to a locking block 49.

[0039] Specifically, the fixing seat 41 of the locking assembly 4 is installed above the mounting plate 31, and the locking screw 43 is driven by the rotation of the handle 44. The movable part 45 at the bottom of the locking screw 43 is linked with the deflection seat 48 through the movable shaft 46 and the deflection shaft 47; when the locking screw 43 is tightened, the movable part 45 deflects around the deflection shaft 47, and the locking block 49 deflects with the movement of the movable part 45, pressing the contact surface of the secondary keel 2.

[0040] Furthermore, the inner side of the locking block 49 is provided with anti-slip texture, which further enhances friction and ensures no slippage after fixing, achieving a tight lock.

[0041] Specific implementation steps of this utility model:

[0042] This utility model's universal aluminum composite ceiling keel structure, through the innovative design of adjustment component 3 and locking component 4, achieves flexible angle adjustment and stable fixation between the main keel 1 and the secondary keel 2. The specific working principle is as follows:

[0043] Main and secondary keel connection and angle adjustment

[0044] The main keel 1 and the secondary keel 2 are vertically and crosswise connected by an adjusting assembly 3 and a locking assembly 4. The adjusting assembly 3 is installed at both ends of the main keel, and the fixing screw 33 passes through the adjusting groove 34 and the threaded sleeve 35. The screw can be tightened or loosened by rotating the handle 32. When loosened, the secondary keel 2 can be freely adjusted in position. Before use, the tilt angle of the secondary keel 2 should be adjusted, and then fixed by the adjusting assembly 3. When tightened, the end of the fixing screw 33 abuts against the surface of the secondary keel 2, fixing it at the required angle.

[0045] Dynamic fixing of locking components

[0046] The fixing seat 41 of the locking assembly 4 is mounted above the mounting plate 31, and the locking screw 43 is driven by rotation via the handle 44. The movable part 45 at the bottom of the locking screw 43 is linked to the deflection seat 48 via the movable shaft 46 and the deflection shaft 47; when the locking screw 43 is tightened, the movable part 45 deflects around the deflection shaft 47, and the locking block 49 deflects with the movement of the movable part 45, pressing against the contact surface of the secondary keel 2. The anti-slip texture further enhances the friction, ensuring no slippage after fixing, thus achieving a tight lock.

[0047] Structural strength guarantee

[0048] The mounting plate 31 is reinforced with the main keel 1 by welding and riveting to ensure the stability of the adjustment component 3 when bearing the ceiling panel.
