Detailed Implementation

[0021] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] As shown in Figures 1-7, the continuous zigzag unitized curtain wall system includes glass-aluminum panel units and aluminum panel connector units. Each aluminum panel connector unit comprises individual aluminum panels and vertical connecting panels. Both the glass-aluminum panel units and the aluminum panel connector units have frames, which include male and female columns, upper and lower horizontal beams. The male and female columns of the glass-aluminum panel units and the aluminum panel connector units interlock to form vertical composite rods. The upper and lower horizontal beams of two vertically adjacent frames interlock to form horizontal composite rods, thus forming a continuous zigzag curtain wall structure. The two vertically adjacent frames can be either the frames of two vertically adjacent glass-aluminum panel units or the frames of two vertically adjacent aluminum panel connector units.

[0023] The public column is made of concave aluminum alloy profile, while the female column is made of convex aluminum alloy profile. The concave structure of the concave aluminum alloy profile and the convex structure of the convex aluminum alloy profile interlock. To ensure a tight connection between the folded curtain wall units, anti-retraction bolts are installed at the concave structure of the public column.

[0024] To allow the male and female columns on the aluminum panel connector unit to connect at angles with the male and female columns of the glass aluminum panel unit, spaced central columns A10 and B11 are installed on the aluminum panel connector unit. Central column A10 connects to the male column, and central column B11 connects to the female column. The angle of central columns A10 and B11 is adjusted to allow for the connection of the male and female columns of the aluminum panel connector unit, thus solving the problem of fixed and unadjustable installation angles between adjacent curtain walls in traditional zigzag curtain wall systems. Of course, the angle adjustment method of the central columns uses existing technology. This technology for adjusting the angle of central columns is widely used in curtain wall systems. For example, patent CN209145089U discloses a multi-angle adjustable structure for unit glass panels, in which the aluminum alloy sub-frame and aluminum alloy support of the unit glass panels are rotatably connected. By utilizing the elasticity of the EPDM rubber strip, the angle of the aluminum alloy sub-frame can be rotated and adjusted, thereby adjusting the angle of the unit glass panels and achieving diversified angle adjustment of the unit glass panels. In this embodiment, the central column A10 and central column B11 are rotatably connected to the aluminum plate between them.

[0025] To ensure a tight connection in the continuous zigzag unitized curtain wall system, both the glass-aluminum panel unit and the aluminum panel connector unit are equipped with snap-on covers on the outer side of the connection points of the vertical connecting rods. The snap-on covers are sealed with EPDM adhesive strips.

[0026] The lower crossbeam of the aluminum plate unit panel is a convex shape made of aluminum alloy, while the upper crossbeam of the vertical connecting panel is a concave shape made of aluminum alloy. The aluminum plate connecting body unit panel formed by combining the aluminum plate unit panel and the vertical connecting panel has a concave upper frame and a convex lower frame.

[0027] The lower end of the vertical connecting plate is provided with an upper support ear, and the upper end of the aluminum plate unit plate is provided with a lower hanging ear. The upper support ear and the lower hanging ear are fixed by fastening and bolts.

[0028] During construction and assembly, the upper support lug 17 of the vertical connecting plate shown in Figure 5 and the lower hanging lug 22 of the aluminum plate unit plate shown in Figure 6 are fastened together, and the internal connection is made by bolts.

[0029] The vertical connecting plate aluminum plate 18 and the vertical connecting plate angle steel 19 shown in Figure 5 are bolted to the upper crossbeam 20 of the aluminum plate unit plate shown in Figure 6.

[0030] The glass-aluminum plate unit male column 1 shown in Figure 1 and the aluminum plate connector unit female column 9 shown in Figure 3 are connected by interlocking to form a vertical composite rod. The glass-aluminum plate right snap-on cover adhesive joint 6 shown in Figure 1 and the aluminum plate connector unit left snap-on cover adhesive joint 13 shown in Figure 3 are bonded with EPDM adhesive strips to make the connection tighter.

[0031] The male column 8 of the aluminum plate connector unit shown in Figure 3 and the female column 2 of the glass aluminum plate unit shown in Figure 1 are connected by interlocking to form a vertical composite rod. The right snap-on cover adhesive joint 12 of the aluminum plate connector unit shown in Figure 3 and the left snap-on cover adhesive joint 5 of the glass aluminum plate shown in Figure 1 are bonded with EPDM adhesive strips to make the connection tighter.

[0032] By repeating the interlocking steps of the glass aluminum plate unit panels shown in Figure 1 and the aluminum plate connector unit panels shown in Figure 3, a horizontal continuous broken-line unitized curtain wall structure as shown in Figure 7 is formed.

[0033] As shown in Figure 2, the upper horizontal beam 3 and lower horizontal beam 4 of two vertically adjacent glass-aluminum panel units are interlocked to form a horizontal composite rod; as shown in Figures 4-6, the upper horizontal beam 16 (i.e., upper horizontal beam 14 of aluminum panel connector unit) and the lower horizontal beam 21 (i.e., lower horizontal beam 15 of aluminum panel connector unit) of two vertically adjacent aluminum panel connector unit units are interlocked to form a horizontal composite rod, thus forming a vertical curtain wall structure.

[0034] The connection and cooperation of the above components enable the curtain wall to achieve the purpose of integral installation of the zigzag unitized curtain wall, and it is continuous in blocks, with fast installation speed and excellent airtight performance.

[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are within its protection scope. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within its protection scope.
