Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of canopies, and in particular to an assembled beam structure for a folding canopy. Background Technology

[0002] Outdoor awnings, also known as outdoor sunshade awnings, double-track awnings, and multi-functional outdoor awnings, are ideal for shading various glass roofs, skylights, atriums, courtyards, and open balconies. Their heat insulation effect far surpasses that of various indoor shading products for glass rooms, significantly reducing indoor temperature and thus achieving energy conservation. They can flexibly block sunlight for buildings all year round.

[0003] Traditional folding canopies use a single-beam structure, as shown in publication number CN219386924U. The beam is divided into upper and lower cavities. The upper cavity is used to install the drive mechanism, and the lower cavity is used to install the pulley mechanism. The first pulley mechanism is fixed to the drive mechanism. This single-beam structure has a small operating space, making it troublesome and time-consuming to assemble or disassemble and replace the drive mechanism and pulley mechanism.

[0004] At the same time, this type of structure, installed below the beam, makes it impossible to install auxiliary components such as windproof roller shutters and fences on the side of the folding canopy. Summary of the Invention

[0025] Reference Figure 1-7 As shown, an assembled beam body for a folding canopy is provided. The beam body 1 consists of a main beam 101 and a secondary beam 102. The main beam 101 is provided with a rotating end groove 1011, and the secondary beam 102 is provided with a rotating end head 1021 that cooperates with the rotating end groove 1011. The main beam 101 is provided with a drive mechanism 2 and a traction member 3 is provided thereon. The secondary beam 102 is provided with several sets of pulley assemblies 4. The secondary beam 102 rotates with the rotating end groove 1011 as the fulcrum. After flipping, the secondary beam 102 is located inside the main beam 101, and one of the pulley assemblies 4 is connected to the traction member 3.

[0026] The assembled beam 1 is only located in the direction of the folding canopy's movement. The main beam 101 is composed of a first rectangular frame 101-1 and a first extension side 101-2 located on one side of the first rectangular frame 101-1 in the length direction. The drive mechanism 2 is installed inside the first rectangular frame 101-1. The rotating end groove 1011 is located at the extended end of the first extension side 101-2. The secondary beam 102 is composed of a second rectangular frame 102-1 and a second extension side 102-2 located on one side of the second rectangular frame 102-1 in the width direction. The second extension side 102-2 is an extension of the top edge of the second rectangular frame 102-1. Figure 4 As shown, the secondary beam 102 is located to the right of the first extension side 101-2, the second extension side 102-2 extends toward the main beam 101, the pulley assembly 4 is installed inside the second rectangular frame 102-1, and the rotating end 1021 is located at the extension end of the second extension side 102-2.

[0027] Specifically, the rotating end groove 1011 includes a first end groove edge a located at the end of the first extension edge 101-2 and perpendicular to the first extension edge 101-2, and a second end groove edge b located below the first end groove edge a and forming an arc-shaped hook groove c with the first end groove edge a. The second end groove edge b is arc-shaped. Furthermore, in order to ensure the restriction of the rotating end head 1021 and prevent it from easily detaching from the arc-shaped hook groove c, a round end d with a slightly lower center is provided at the extension end of the first end groove edge a. At the same time, in order to prevent excessive deflection of the sub-beam 102 and the stability of the rotating end groove 1011 and the rotating end head 1021, a support edge e is horizontally provided at the end of the second end groove edge b.

[0028] It should be noted that the rotating end 1021 is an arc-shaped hook head f located at the end of the second extension edge 102-2 and adapted to the arc-shaped hook groove c. The front end of the arc-shaped hook head f extends into the arc-shaped hook groove c and is locked at the round end d. At the same time, when the second extension edge 102-2 on the sub-beam 102 is in a horizontal state, the end of the second extension edge 102-2 can abut against the support edge e.

[0029] It should be noted that a connecting plate 5 is provided within the first rectangular frame 101-1 of the main beam 101 for connecting the beam 1 to the column of the folding canopy and another perpendicular beam 1. For fixing the connecting plate 5, as follows... Figure 6As shown, limiting ribs 101-11 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the inner wall of the first rectangular frame 101-1 and on the side away from the first extension edge 101-2. The limiting ribs 101-11 and the inner wall away from the first extension edge 101-2 can form a limiting cavity 101-12. The connecting plate 5 is inserted into the first rectangular frame 101-1 and fastened by screws on the side. It should be further noted that the top surface of the connecting plate 5 is flush with the supporting edge e. Therefore, another function of the connecting plate 5 is that the supporting plate can further support the second extension edge 102-2, ensuring firmness and reliability.

[0030] It should also be noted that the drive mechanism 2 includes a conveyor belt 21, which is oval in shape. The upper part of the oval shape of the conveyor belt 21 is located outside the first rectangular frame 101-1, and the lower part is located inside the first rectangular frame 101-1. Figure 3 As shown, the traction member 3 is installed on the upper part of the conveyor belt 21. The traction member 3 includes a conveyor block 31 and a conveyor plate 32 fixed on the conveyor block 31. A screw is screwed into the top of the conveyor block 31 and passes through the conveyor belt 21. The conveyor plate 32 is located outside the conveyor block 31. The conveyor plate 32 is provided with an insert 321. In order to further ensure the insertion stability of the insert 321, two inserts 321 are provided. The pulley assembly 4 is provided with a support 41 that cooperates with the conveyor plate 32. At the same time, the support 41 is provided with a snap hole 411 that cooperates with the insert 321. When the sub-beam 102 is installed on the main beam 101 and flipped flat, the snap hole 411 on the support 41 of the first pulley assembly 4 is snapped into one of the inserts.

[0031] In order to fix the sub-beam 102 after installation, and to ensure that the side of the connecting plate 5 away from the first extension edge 101-2 fits against the side of the second rectangular frame 102-1 near the second extension edge 102-2 after the sub-beam 102 is installed, fasteners 6 are provided to be screwed into the connecting plate 5 from one side of the second rectangular frame 102-1.

[0032] The working process of this utility model is as follows: the pulley assembly 4 is slid into the second rectangular frame 102-1 in one go, the connecting plate 5 is inserted into the main beam 101 and fixed, the conveyor block 31 and the conveyor plate 32 are installed on the conveyor belt 21, the secondary beam 102 is held at a 45° angle and the arc-shaped hook head f at the end of the second extension edge 102-2 of the secondary beam 102 extends along the arc-shaped hook groove c, while the secondary beam 102 is slowly changed from an inclined state to a horizontal state, and finally the buckle hole 411 on the support 41 on the pulley assembly 4 is inserted into the insert on the conveyor plate 32, and then the secondary beam 102 in this state is fixed to the main beam 101 by the fastener 6.
