Detailed Implementation

[0036] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0037] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, this embodiment of the utility model provides a multifunctional covered walkway, characterized in that it includes two spaced-apart entrance columns 10. The entrance and exit of the covered walkway are formed between the two entrance columns 10.

[0038] Two first load-bearing columns 11 are provided on each side of the two entrance columns 10, and two second load-bearing columns 12 are provided at the positions opposite to the two first load-bearing columns 11. Two support columns 13 are provided between the two second load-bearing columns 12.

[0039] Support column 13 is opposite to entrance column 10; the first load-bearing column 11, the second load-bearing column 12, and support column 13 have the same height, while the entrance column 10 has a lower height than the first load-bearing column 11. A main wall 20 connects the first load-bearing column 11 and the second load-bearing column 12, the second load-bearing column 12 and the support column 13, and the two support columns 13. The main wall 20 has the same height as the first load-bearing column 11, and a secondary wall 30 connects the entrance column 10 and the first load-bearing column 11; the secondary wall 30 has a lower height than the entrance column 10.

[0040] The secondary wall 30 and the main wall 20 between the first load-bearing column 11 and the second load-bearing column 12 are perpendicular to each other. The secondary wall 30 and the main wall 20 between the second load-bearing column 12 and the supporting column 13 are parallel to each other. The main wall 20 between the first load-bearing column 11 and the second load-bearing column 12 on one side is opposite and parallel to the main wall 20 between the first load-bearing column 11 and the second load-bearing column 12 on the other side, and all the walls form a rectangular space. The main wall 20 forms a semi-enclosed structure, which can form an effective wind barrier. The secondary wall 30 is lower than the main wall 20, forming a low wall. The semi-open structure above the secondary wall 30 connects to the outside to meet the needs of internal space ventilation and lighting.

[0041] First support columns 40 are respectively installed on the first load-bearing column 11, the second load-bearing column 12, and the support column 13, and a second support column 50 is installed on the entrance column 10. The first support columns 40 and the second support columns 50 are at the same height. The first support columns 40 and the second support columns 50 are used to support the curved beam 60 and the curved glass roof 70.

[0042] As shown in Figure 3, parallel arc-shaped beams 60 are respectively installed on two opposing first pillars 40 and on opposing first pillars 40 and second pillars 50. There are a total of eight first pillars 40 and second pillars 50, arranged in pairs, with the entrance pillar 10 on the front and the support pillar 13 on the rear. An arc-shaped beam 60 is installed on each pair of opposing pillars. The two ends of the arc-shaped beams 60 are connected to the two pillars respectively, for a total of four arc-shaped beams 60. An arc-shaped glass roof 70 is fixed on the arc-shaped beams 60, covering the main wall 20 and the secondary wall 30. The arc-shaped glass roof 70 not only blocks rainwater but also uses its curved structure to achieve natural drainage, preventing water accumulation and maintaining sufficient light transmission to ensure a bright interior space. The area enclosed by the main wall 20 and the secondary wall 30 is equipped with lighting equipment, seats, game facilities, and vending machines, providing users with multiple functions. In this embodiment and the embodiments below, "opposite" refers to direct alignment. The curved surface formed by the curved glass roof 70 is parallel to the curved shape of the curved beam 60.

[0043] In this embodiment, the main wall 20 structure between the load-bearing column and the supporting column 13 forms an effective wind barrier, significantly reducing the impact of wind on the interior space of the pergola. The curved glass roof 70, while shielding from rain, utilizes its curved structure to achieve natural airflow, preventing water accumulation and maintaining sufficient light transmission to ensure a bright interior space. Furthermore, the lower-height secondary wall 30 design, while maintaining windproof performance, further optimizes ventilation and lighting, achieving multiple functions of wind and rain protection and ventilation, while also integrating multiple functions such as rest, leisure, and shopping services.

[0044] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 3, a crossbeam 80 connects the two opposing first pillars 40, and the tops of the two first pillars 40 are fixedly connected to both ends of an arc-shaped crossbeam 60. The two opposing first pillars 40 are located on the opposing first load-bearing column 11 and second load-bearing column 12, respectively.

[0045] A crossbeam 80 connects the second pillar 50 and the first pillar 40 directly opposite it, and the top of the second pillar 50 and the top of the first pillar 40 are fixedly connected to the two ends of an arc-shaped crossbeam 60.

[0046] Multiple reinforcing ribs 81 connect the transverse beam 80 and the arc-shaped crossbeam 60 located above it. A horizontal top beam 61 connects the tops of two adjacent arc-shaped crossbeams 60, and a horizontal bottom beam 62 connects the ends of two adjacent arc-shaped crossbeams 60 on the same side.

[0047] In this embodiment, the transverse beam 80 is connected to two pillars, improving the support stability and reliability of the pillars. The stiffeners 81 increase the moment of inertia of the structural cross section, effectively enhancing the deformation resistance of the curved beam 60 and distributing local loads over a larger area, reducing stress concentration and preventing structural damage. The horizontal top beam 61 and horizontal bottom beam 62 connect multiple curved beams 60 together, forming mutual support among them, further improving the support force and stability of each curved beam 60 and enhancing the support force for the curved glass roof 70.

[0048] Preferably, the reinforcing rib 81 includes an arc-shaped rib 82 and multiple straight ribs 83. The two ends of the arc-shaped rib 82 are fixed to the crossbeam 80, one end of each straight rib 83 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped rib 82, and the other end of each straight rib 83 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped crossbeam 60. The multiple straight ribs 83 are evenly distributed. The arc-shaped rib 82 and the multiple straight ribs 83 form an umbrella-shaped support, ensuring uniform stress on the arc-shaped crossbeam 60.

[0049] Furthermore, as shown in Figures 1 and 3, a first metal perforated mesh panel 90 is also provided between the transverse beam 80 and the corresponding arc-shaped crossbeam 60. A second metal perforated mesh panel 91 is provided between the main wall 20 and the horizontal bottom beam 62 above the main wall 20. In this embodiment, the reinforcing rib 81 is attached to the first metal perforated mesh panel 90. In this embodiment, the metal perforated mesh panel weakens the bulkiness of the covered walkway, increases natural lighting, forms a wind barrier while increasing ventilation, avoids a sense of enclosure, and creates an open and light spatial atmosphere.

[0050] Preferably, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, the curved glass canopy 70 includes a plurality of sequentially spliced ​​curved glass units 71. The curved glass units 71 are double-layered laminated glass.

[0051] Glass clamps 72 are fixed to the four corners of the curved glass unit 71, and adjacent curved glass units 71 are connected by the clamping parts of the glass clamps 72. The bottom of the glass clamp 72 located at the curved crossbeam 60 is fixedly connected to the curved crossbeam 60. The two sides of adjacent curved glass units 71 are sealed together with sealant. The two clamping parts of the glass clamp 72 clamp two adjacent curved glass units 71 respectively, and the clamping parts are fixed to the curved glass units 71 with sealant. The two clamping parts of the glass clamp 72 are connected to a fixing part, and the bottom of the fixing part of the glass clamp 72 located at the curved crossbeam 60 is fixedly connected to the curved crossbeam 60. The number of clamping parts can also be four.

[0052] Preferably, a retractable sunshade can be installed below the arched glass roof 70. Multiple windows are also provided on the main wall 20. One to three sets of column grids can be freely added along the long axis of the pergola, allowing for flexible adjustment of the entrance location and the combination of high and low walls.
