Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of outdoor awning technology, and in particular to a steel structure awning. Background Technology
[0002] Steel structure canopies are typically built between two buildings, connecting them and serving as a passageway canopy, or placed above building entrances to provide shelter from rain and wind, and protect against falling objects. Existing steel structure canopies usually consist of a roof and a frame. The roof, typically arched, is located at the top of the frame. During rain, the roof directs rainwater down from both sides, preventing it from entering the steel structure canopy and thus providing rain protection.
[0003] The existing Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN220247744U discloses a steel structure canopy body, relating to the field of canopy technology. It includes a base, columns, a roof, and gutters. The base has an integrally embedded pile at its bottom end. Curved steel frames can be detachably installed on both sides of the top of the columns. The roof has an arched structure, with connecting grooves integrally provided on both sides of its bottom. Connecting protrusions are integrally provided at the bottom of both gutters, allowing the canopies to be detachably connected to the connecting grooves via the connecting protrusions. This application provides a steel structure canopy body with two gutters, preventing rainwater from sliding directly down the roof and forming a rain curtain that wets pedestrians. The curved steel frame and curved reinforcing plate are used to connect the roof and columns, effectively improving the connection strength of the roof.
[0004] However, modular glass-roofed awnings are currently more popular in the market. Due to their modular structure, these awnings are easy to transport, can be customized in size, and are more aesthetically pleasing. However, the glass roofs of these awnings require waterproofing and fixing with sealing strips, and when dismantled, the entire glass roof needs to be broken and removed, making them unusable. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a steel structure awning to meet practical needs. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0021] For this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-5 The specific implementation of this steel structure canopy includes a fixed steel frame 1 and several tempered glass panels 2. The corners of the tempered glass panels 2 are fixedly connected to the fixed steel frame 1 via fixing components 5. The fixing components 5 include connecting sleeves 51 and fixing bolts 52. The connecting sleeves 51 are vertically mounted on the side wall of the steel beam 11, and the fixing bolts 52 penetrate the corners of the tempered glass panels 2 and are fixedly connected to the connecting sleeves 51. Figure 5As shown, there is a gap between two adjacent tempered glass pieces 2, and a first water-blocking strip 61 is provided between two adjacent tempered glass pieces 2.
[0022] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first water-blocking strips 61 are arranged vertically in a linear array between two adjacent tempered glass pieces 2. The top of the first water-blocking strip 61 is a flat first water-blocking part 611, and the bottom of the first water-blocking strip 61 is an arc-shaped first water-guiding part 612. A first connecting rib 613 is provided between the first water-blocking part 611 and the first water-guiding part 612. The two ends of the first connecting rib 613 are connected to the middle of the first water-blocking part 611 and the first water-guiding part 612, respectively. The first water-blocking strip 61 is embedded in the gap between two adjacent tempered glass pieces 2 through the first connecting rib 613. The bottom end of the first water-blocking part 611 abuts against the edge of the tempered glass 2, and the first water-guiding part 612 covers the bottom of the edge of the tempered glass 2.
[0023] By setting a first water-blocking strip 61 between two adjacent tempered glass pieces 2, and embedding the first water-blocking strip 61 into the gap between the two adjacent tempered glass pieces 2 through the first connecting rib 613, the bottom end of the first water-blocking part 611 abuts against the edge of the tempered glass 2, and the first water-guiding part 612 covers the lower edge of the tempered glass 2, the gap between the two adjacent tempered glass pieces 2 can be effectively waterproofed. At the same time, rainwater that inevitably seeps into the gap can be guided to the front edge of the canopy through the inverted arc-shaped first water-guiding part 612. This structure has the characteristics of modular assembly and good waterproof performance, and can be disassembled and reused without damage.
[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, a second water-blocking strip 62 is provided between two adjacent pieces of tempered glass 2. The second water-blocking strip 62 is horizontally arranged between the two adjacent pieces of tempered glass 2. The top of the second water-blocking strip 62 is an arc-shaped second water-blocking part 621, and the bottom of the second water-blocking strip 62 is an inverted arc-shaped second water-guiding part 622. The second water-blocking part 621 and the second water-guiding part 622 are connected by a second connecting rib 623. The two ends of the second connecting rib 623 are respectively connected to the middle of the second water-blocking part 621 and the second water-guiding part 622. The second water-blocking strip 62 is embedded in the gap between the two adjacent pieces of tempered glass 2 through the second connecting rib 623. The second water-blocking strip 62 covers the top and bottom edges of the tempered glass 2 through the second water-blocking part 621 and the second water-guiding part 622, respectively.
[0025] Preferred, such as Figure 3As shown, a rotating joint 64 is provided between the second connecting rib 623 and the second water guiding part 622. The second water guiding part 622 is rotatably mounted below the tempered glass 2 via the rotating joint 64. Since the canopy is sometimes installed at a downward tilt, the horizontally mounted second water-blocking strip 62 can be rotated vertically by the rotating joint 64 to allow the second water guiding part 622 to swing naturally, so that the second water-blocking strip 62 has a vertical structure to guide rainwater.
[0026] Preferred, such as Figure 4 As shown, the fixed steel frame 1 is composed of several steel beams 11 and connecting rods 12. The steel beams 11 are arranged in a linear array horizontally. The connecting rods 12 are horizontally connected to the ends of the steel beams 11. The end of the steel beam 11 away from the connecting rods 12 is a fixed flange 13. The steel beam 11 is used to install on the external wall through the fixed flange 13.
[0027] In a further embodiment, a steel cable 3 and a connecting bracket 4 are also included. The middle part of the steel beam 11 is provided with an upwardly protruding hoisting protrusion 14. The connecting bracket 4 is used to fix it to the external wall. One end of the steel cable 3 is fixedly connected to the hoisting protrusion 14, and the other end of the steel cable 3 is fixedly connected to the connecting bracket 4. The steel cable 3 can improve the support force between the canopy and the wall, making the structure between the canopy and the wall more stable.
