Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of swing door technology, specifically an ultra-low energy consumption swing door crossbeam support. Background Technology
[0002] Automatic doors are increasingly used in commercial and residential settings, with automatic swing doors typically equipped with electric swing door motors (also known as electric top springs). In this design, the motor and reduction gear are installed inside the crossbeam at the top of the door frame. During operation, the motor drives the door hinges via a drive shaft, opening the door leaf. Simultaneously, the control system, acting as the "brain" of the electric swing door motor, is also installed inside the crossbeam, allowing for remote control of the door's opening and closing. Most existing unit door crossbeams are molded from aluminum alloy profiles. However, this type of metal crossbeam has several drawbacks:
[0003] Poor insulation: Metal materials have good thermal conductivity, which makes it easy for heat to be conducted from the outside to the inside.
[0004] Highly conductive: Metals are conductive, posing a safety risk of leakage.
[0005] Signal shielding: Metal materials can block the transmission of 4G and WiFi signals, which may cause the unit door to be difficult to open and close, especially in situations where these signals are relied upon for remote control.
[0006] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings, it is particularly important to develop a new type of ultra-low energy consumption swing door beam bracket that has both the structural strength of existing products and meets the energy-saving requirements. Utility Model Content

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the bottom of the mounting base plate is provided with a lower cover plate, and both ends of the lower cover plate are provided with support cavities.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-3 In this embodiment of the present invention, a specific embodiment of an ultra-low energy consumption swing door crossbeam support includes a crossbeam support 1 as the main structural component. The crossbeam support 1 is a composite material product manufactured from reinforcing materials and matrix materials through a continuous pultrusion molding process. In this embodiment, glass fiber is selected as the reinforcing material, while foamed polyurethane is used as the matrix material. Auxiliary materials such as mixed polyether polyols, flame retardants, rigid foam stabilizers, coupling agents, catalysts, foaming agents, antioxidants, UV stabilizers, and isocyanates are added to ensure the various performance characteristics of the materials.
[0024] The crossbeam support 1 is designed as a rectangular cavity with a one-piece, closed structure. Two symmetrical mounting slots 2 of equal size are provided on its left and right sides inside, serving as fixing slots for mounting components and providing stable support for the crossbeam support 1. The through cavity in the middle of the slots can be used to conceal the motor and reduction mechanism of the electric swing gate operator 5, as well as the drive control system and power supply 12 with 4G signal and WiFi network connectivity. This design makes the structure compact, facilitating interconnection and transmission. Its interior also houses control and functional devices such as connection terminals 11, power supply 12, safety light beams 13, and drive controller 14.
[0025] The crossbeam support is made of composite materials such as polyurethane and glass fiber, and the cross-sectional structure is formed as a whole in one piece.
[0026] A longitudinal reinforcing rib 3 is provided in the middle of the upper surface of the beam support 1. This rib strengthens the overall cavity and facilitates the fixing of the beam to the wall with screws. The lower surface is provided with a lower cover plate 6, which can be made of rigid PVC extruded profile or aluminum alloy extruded profile. The lower cover plate 6 is assembled with the beam support 1 by inserting the lower cover plate support 4 and the support cavity 8.
[0027] In addition, the beam support 1 is also equipped with accessories such as a mounting base plate 7, fixing screws 9, and a connecting plate 10 to complete the fixing and assembly of the beam support 1. A lower cover plate 6 is provided at the bottom of the mounting base plate 7, and support cavities 8 are opened at both ends of the lower cover plate 6 for insertion and connection with the lower cover plate support 4. The fixing screws 9 are used to connect the mounting base plate 7, the beam support 1, and the connecting plate 10 through threads, ensuring the stability and robustness of the structure.
[0028] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The working principle of the ultra-low energy consumption swing door crossbeam support 1 is mainly based on its composite material characteristics and structural design. First, since the crossbeam support 1 is formed by composite materials such as polyurethane and glass fiber, the cross-sectional structure is formed as a whole in one piece, thus it has high mechanical strength and can withstand greater external forces and pressures.
[0029] Secondly, the composite material has a low thermal conductivity, which can effectively reduce the heat transferred from the outside to the inside, thereby improving the thermal insulation performance. At the same time, the composite material also has excellent corrosion resistance, and has strong resistance to most acids, alkalis, salts, organic substances, as well as seawater and humid air, which can effectively protect the internal motor and drive control system from corrosion and damage.
[0030] During operation, the motor and reduction gear of the electric swing gate operator 5 are concealed within the cavity of the crossbeam bracket 1. The drive control system and power supply 12 are also sequentially installed within this cavity. When a signal to open or close the door is received, the drive control system controls the motor to rotate, which in turn drives the door hinges via the transmission shaft to open or close the door. The design of the crossbeam bracket 1 results in a compact structure and facilitates interconnection and transmission, enabling fast and accurate opening and closing operations.
[0031] Furthermore, since the composite material does not block 4G or WiFi signals from the drive control system within the hollow cavity, the reliability of remote control can be ensured. Simultaneously, the non-conductive nature of the composite material eliminates the risk of leakage, thereby enhancing the overall safety and reliability of the system.
[0032] In summary, this ultra-low energy consumption swing door beam bracket 1 achieves multiple advantages such as energy saving, environmental protection, safety, and reliability through the use of composite materials and improved structural design, and has broad application prospects and market value.
