Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of expansion joint construction, in particular to a ground temperature shrinkage joint device for granite. Background Art
[0002] The conventional method for temperature expansion joints uses rubber strips. Due to repeated cleaning of the ground, the rubber strips are severely soiled and cannot be cleaned thoroughly, resulting in poor decorative effects.
[0003] Direct splicing joints are prone to problems such as height differences and left - right misalignments, which are likely to become dead corners for cleaning.
[0004] Due to the huge flow of people in high - speed railway stations, the ground bears high - frequency and high - intensity dynamic loads (such as pedestrians, luggage, cleaning equipment, etc.). If the rubber strip has poor quality and warps, it is likely to affect the aesthetics and comfort of use, and it is also difficult to maintain in the later stage. Moreover, since the coefficient of thermal expansion of granite floors is usually less than that of cement mortar leveling layers and concrete cushions, it is easy to cause the surface rubber strip to fall off and warp. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a ground temperature shrinkage joint device for granite, which is convenient for adapting to the temperature deformation problem when the coefficients of thermal expansion of granite floors, cement mortar leveling layers and concrete cushions are inconsistent. When the granite floor is not deformed, the expansion joint can also adapt to the deformation of the bottom cement mortar leveling layer and concrete cushion without the surface of the expansion joint falling off or warping.
[0006] To solve the above problems, a ground temperature shrinkage joint device for granite is adopted, which includes:
[0007] An "I" - shaped plate with a first horizontal hook - shaped rib in the middle.
[0008] An inverted "L" - shaped plate, whose upper horizontal limb extends above the "I" - shaped plate, and a first gap is reserved between its lower vertical limb and the first horizontal hook - shaped rib. A second horizontal hook - shaped rib is provided in the middle of its lower vertical limb. The second horizontal hook - shaped rib is hooked to the first horizontal hook - shaped rib, separating an upper cavity and a lower cavity between the "I" - shaped plate and the inverted "L" - shaped plate. A second gap is reserved between the second horizontal hook - shaped rib and the "I" - shaped plate.
[0009] A sealing rubber strip, which is filled in the upper cavity and the lower cavity between the "I" - shaped plate and the inverted "L" - shaped plate.
[0010] With such a structure, when the cement mortar leveling layer and the concrete cushion layer under the granite floor are deformed under the influence of temperature stress, the "|" - shaped plate can be compressed towards the inverted "L" - shaped plate, and the upper horizontal limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate can remain stationary, still maintaining a tight joint with the granite floor. The internal sealing strip provides the effect of resilience and adaptation to deformation, and can provide vertical support force to the upper horizontal limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate to enhance the ability of the upper horizontal limb of the "L" - shaped plate to resist bending under compression.
[0011] As a further improvement of the present utility model, a first folding edge is provided on the lower side of the "|" - shaped plate 1, and a second folding edge is provided on the lower side of the vertical lower limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate, and the first folding edge is opposite to the second folding edge.
[0012] With such a structure, the first folding edge and the second folding edge properly limit the sealing strip. For example, if the first folding edge and the second folding edge are appropriately narrowed, it can prevent the bottom sealing strip from slipping during installation.
[0013] As a further improvement of the present utility model, the sealing strip is made of silicone sealing strip.
[0014] With such a structure, by selecting a high - quality silicone sealing strip, the elastic recovery rate is extremely high (>90%), it is resistant to high and low temperatures (-40°C - 150°C), has a long service life, and can meet the temperature shrinkage deformation effect in a complex environment.
[0015] As a further improvement of the present utility model, the "|" - shaped plate, the first transverse hook - shaped rib and the first folding edge are integrally formed by alloy profiles; the inverted "L" - shaped plate, the second transverse hook - shaped rib and the second folding edge are integrally formed by alloy profiles.
[0016] With such a structure, the integrally formed structure is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency.
[0017] As a further improvement of the present utility model, a first gap is reserved in the height direction between the first transverse hook - shaped rib and the second transverse hook - shaped rib.
[0018] With such a structure, there is space for up - and - down deformation to adapt to the deformation of the profile itself.
[0019] As a further improvement of the present utility model, a second gap is reserved in height between the upper horizontal limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate and the "|" - shaped plate.
[0020] With such a structure, the sealing strip jacks up the upper horizontal limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate, which can reduce the friction force generated by relative sliding.
[0021] As a further improvement of the utility model, the sealing strip adopts a hollow trapezoidal structure, the maximum width of which is wider than the distance between the first folding edge and the second folding edge. The sealing strips are arranged symmetrically up and down, with their wide bottoms approaching each other and their narrow bottoms moving away from each other.
[0022] With such a structure, the hollow trapezoidal structure is conducive to compression and contraction on both sides.
[0023] As a further improvement of the utility model, deformation grooves are arranged at intervals on the upper bottom and the wide bottom of the sealing strip.
[0024] With such a structure, when the hollow trapezoidal structure is compressed and deformed, the middle part is prevented from bulging.
[0025] The sealing strip for controlling thermal shrinkage deformation of the utility model is placed inside and does not leak outside, so there is no problem of dirt caused by repeated cleaning of the strip. The metal finish is easy to clean, and the decorative effect is better maintained.
[0026] Hook connection makes the ground thermal shrinkage joint form a whole and is not easy to warp. The joint is tight and is not easy to have offsets or misaligned joints, and it is not easy to form cleaning dead corners, ensuring safety, comfort and aesthetics, and effectively solving the thermal deformation problem caused by the inconsistent thermal expansion coefficients of granite floor, cement mortar leveling layer and concrete cushion layer.

[0036] Embodiment 1
[0037] As Figures 1-4 shown, a ground temperature shrinkage joint device for granite includes:
[0038] An "I"-shaped plate 1, which has a first horizontal hook-shaped rib 101 in the middle.
[0039] An inverted "L"-shaped plate 2, the upper horizontal limb of which extends into the upper part of the "I"-shaped plate 1, and a first interval 3 is reserved between the lower vertical limb of it and the first horizontal hook-shaped rib 101. A second horizontal hook-shaped rib 201 is provided in the middle of the lower vertical limb of it. The second horizontal hook-shaped rib 201 is hooked to the first horizontal hook-shaped rib 101, separating an upper cavity 4 and a lower cavity 5 between the "I"-shaped plate 1 and the inverted "L"-shaped plate 2. A second interval 6 is reserved between the second horizontal hook-shaped rib 201 and the "I"-shaped plate 1.
[0040] A sealing strip 7, which is filled in the upper cavity 4 and the lower cavity 5 between the "I"-shaped plate 1 and the inverted "L"-shaped plate 2.
[0041] With such a structure, when the cement mortar leveling layer and the concrete cushion layer under the granite floor are deformed under the influence of temperature stress, the "|" - shaped plate 1 can be compressed towards the inverted "L" - shaped plate 2. The upper limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate 2 in the transverse direction can remain stationary, still maintaining a tight joint with the granite floor. The internal sealing strip provides the effect of resilience and adaptation to deformation, and can provide vertical support force to the upper limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate 2 in the transverse direction to enhance the ability of the upper limb of the "L" - shaped plate 2 to resist bending under pressure.
[0042] In this embodiment, a first folded edge 102 is provided on the lower side of the "|" - shaped plate 1, and a second folded edge 202 is provided on the lower side of the vertical lower limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate 2. The first folded edge 102 and the second folded edge 202 are opposite to each other.
[0043] With such a structure, the first folded edge 102 and the second folded edge 202 properly limit the sealing strip 7. For example, if the first folded edge 102 and the second folded edge 202 are appropriately narrowed, it can prevent the sealing strip 7 at the bottom from slipping during installation.
[0044] In this embodiment, the sealing strip 7 is made of a silicone sealing strip.
[0045] With such a structure, by selecting a high - quality silicone sealing strip, it has an extremely high elastic recovery rate (>90%), is resistant to high and low temperatures (-40°C - 150°C), has a long service life, and can meet the temperature shrinkage deformation effects in complex environments.
[0046] In this embodiment, the "|" - shaped plate 1, the first transverse hook - shaped rib 101, and the first folded edge 102 are integrally formed by alloy profiles; the inverted "L" - shaped plate 2, the second transverse hook - shaped rib 201, and the second folded edge 202 are integrally formed by alloy profiles.
[0047] With such a structure, the integrally formed structure is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency.
[0048] In this embodiment, a first gap 8 is reserved in the height direction between the first transverse hook - shaped rib 101 and the second transverse hook - shaped rib 201.
[0049] With such a structure, there is a space for up - and - down deformation to adapt to the deformation of the profile itself.
[0050] In this embodiment, a second gap 9 is reserved in height between the upper limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate 2 in the transverse direction and the "|" - shaped plate 1.
[0051] With such a structure, the sealing strip 7 jacks up the upper limb of the inverted "L" - shaped plate 2, which can reduce the frictional force generated by relative sliding.
[0052] In this embodiment, the sealing strip 7 adopts a hollow trapezoidal structure, and its maximum width is wider than the distance between the first fold 102 and the second fold 202. The sealing strip 7 is arranged symmetrically from top to bottom, with its wide bottoms close to each other and its narrow bottoms far apart.
[0053] This hollow trapezoidal structure is advantageous for compression and contraction on both sides.
[0054] In this embodiment, deformation grooves 10 are provided at intervals on the upper bottom and the wide bottom of the sealing strip 7.
[0055] This structure is designed to prevent the central part from bulging out when the hollow trapezoidal structure is compressed and deformed.
[0056] The sealing strip of this invention, which controls temperature shrinkage and deformation, is placed inside and does not leak out. It eliminates the problem of dirt caused by repeated cleaning of the sealing strip, and the metal finish is easy to clean, thus maintaining a better decorative effect.
[0057] The interlocking connection ensures that the ground expansion joints form a unified whole, preventing warping. The tight joints prevent misalignment and create cleaning dead corners, guaranteeing safety, comfort, and aesthetics. It effectively solves the problem of thermal deformation caused by the inconsistent thermal expansion coefficients of granite flooring, cement mortar leveling layer, and concrete subbase.
[0058] The above description, in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present invention. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several equivalent substitutions or obvious modifications can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all such modifications, with identical performance or use, should be considered within the protection scope of the present invention.
