Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flue technology, specifically a flue connection structure for building exhaust ducts. Background Technology
[0002] During the construction of kitchen exhaust ducts in high-rise buildings, the strength of precast concrete exhaust ducts cannot meet the requirements for tower crane lifting. Since the standard length of construction elevators is 3 meters, the maximum length of precast concrete exhaust ducts is typically 3 meters. However, connecting two precast concrete exhaust ducts can easily cause cracking in the lower duct and create safety hazards for the upper duct's fixation. To address this, Chinese utility model patent CN220133410U proposes a precast exhaust duct connection structure and building exhaust duct. This structure uses a rectangular steel exhaust duct extending from the wall. The lower end of the rectangular steel exhaust duct is fitted around the upper end of the precast exhaust duct below it, with sealant applied between them. Similarly, the upper end of the rectangular steel exhaust duct is fitted around the lower end of the precast exhaust duct above it, with sealant applied between them, thus forming a flue passage. The materials are simple, the fabrication and installation are convenient, and it can be installed and dismantled during construction.
[0003] However, this type of prefabricated flue connection structure has the following problems: its rectangular steel flue is formed by splicing multiple flue units, and each pair of adjacent flue units is only connected by bolts, which makes it easy for flue gas to leak at the joint.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Please see Figure 1A flue connection structure for building exhaust ducts includes multiple flue units 10, outer cover units 20, and support units 30. The multiple flue units 10 are interconnected to form a flue passage. Two outer cover units 20 are symmetrically arranged on the outer side of every two adjacent flue units 10. The two symmetrically distributed outer cover units 20 are connected and fixed together by fasteners, and the outer cover units 20 are also connected and fixed to the adjacent flue units 10 by fasteners. The outer cover units 20 are used to reduce flue gas leakage at the joints of adjacent flue units 10. Support units 30 are inserted at the joints of the two symmetrical outer cover units 20. The end of the support unit 30 near the outer cover unit 20 is connected and fixed to the two adjacent outer cover units 20 by fasteners, and the end of the support unit 30 facing away from the outer cover unit 20 is connected and fixed to the building wall by fasteners. Among the multiple flue units 10, the top and bottom flue units 10 are each fitted on the outside of the adjacent building flue, and the joint between the flue unit 10 and the adjacent building flue is sealed with sealant, so that it is connected with the concrete flue of the building to form a complete flue passage.
[0021] See Figure 2 The flue unit 10 includes a thin-walled flue 11. Multiple spaced-apart protrusions 12 are formed on the top and bottom of the outer wall of the thin-walled flue 11. Connecting pieces 13 are also formed on the top and bottom of the outer wall of the thin-walled flue 11. The protrusions 12 and connecting pieces 13 are used to cooperate with the outer cover unit 20.
[0022] See Figure 3 The outer cover unit 20 includes a U-shaped cover 21. Multiple spaced-apart inner protrusions 22 are formed on the inner wall of the U-shaped cover 21. Flue connection portions 23 are formed at the top and bottom of the outer wall of the U-shaped cover 21, and a support connection portion 24 is formed on the side of the U-shaped cover 21 facing the opposite outer cover unit 20. When the outer cover unit 20 is assembled outside the flue unit 10, the multiple inner protrusions 22 and multiple outer protrusions 12 are staggered, and the small gaps between the multiple inner protrusions 22 and multiple outer protrusions 12 form a labyrinthine sealing structure. When flue gas passes through the narrow gaps between these two types of protrusions, the flow rate increases and the pressure decreases, creating a throttling effect. Furthermore, through the superposition of multiple tortuous channels, the pressure and leakage of the flue gas are gradually reduced, ultimately achieving a sealing effect.
[0023] When the outer cover unit 20 is fixed, the connecting piece 13 can be in close contact with the adjacent flue connection part 23. Both the connecting piece 13 and the flue connection part 23 have pre-drilled openings that are aligned with each other. Then, fasteners such as bolts can be passed through the aligned openings and tightened with nuts to complete the connection.
[0024] See Figure 4The support unit 30 includes a support portion 31, a fixing portion 33, and multiple reinforcing ribs 34. The support portion 31 has a slot 32 on the side facing the outer cover unit 20, and the support portion 31 is inserted into the outside of the support connecting portion 24 in two adjacent outer cover units 20 through the slot 32. Both the support portion 31 and the support connecting portion 24 have pre-drilled, aligned openings, allowing fasteners such as bolts to pass through these openings and be tightened with nuts to complete the connection. The fixing portion 33 is formed on the side of the support portion 31 facing away from the outer cover unit 20, and each of the four corners of the fixing portion 33 has an opening, allowing bolts to pass through these openings and be used in conjunction with pre-installed expansion bolts on the building to complete the connection and fixation. The reinforcing ribs 34 are formed between the support portion 31 and the fixing portion 33 to increase the strength of the support unit 30, enabling it to better support the flue passage.
[0025] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
