Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of building wall panels, and more specifically, relates to a modular lightweight exterior wall panel with an external frame. Background Technology

[0002] Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete (ALC) panels are a lightweight and environmentally friendly building material, primarily made from cement, quartz sand, lime, and foaming agents. They possess excellent thermal insulation, sound insulation, fire resistance, and seismic resistance properties, and are widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. Furthermore, by using ALC panels as interior and / or exterior partition walls, they can replace structural infill walls, significantly reducing building loads while saving construction time and costs, demonstrating promising application prospects.

[0003] In the prior art, Chinese Patent No. CN109184036A discloses a construction method for ALC panels used in exterior wall panels, including the following steps: S1, transporting the ALC panels to the construction site; S2, after determining the installation position of the ALC panels at the construction site, installing angle steel for fixing the ALC panels in S1; S3, after installing the fasteners on the ALC panels in S1, hoisting them to the installation position of the angle steel in S2, and then fixing the fasteners on the ALC panels to the angle steel; S4, performing waterproofing treatment between the joints of two adjacent ALC panels in S3. Chinese patent CN211736165U discloses an installation system for ultra-low energy consumption building exterior wall panels with a steel frame prefabricated structure, including a hoisting device and an adjusting bracket. The adjusting bracket includes a T-shaped adjusting rod and a lifting rod that are vertically fixed. A positioning bolt is vertically fixed on the adjusting rod, and the positioning bolt is perpendicular to the lifting rod. The wire rope of the hoisting device is fixed to the lifting rod. Limiting ropes are connected to both ends of the adjusting rod. The adjusting bracket also includes pull ropes that are distributed in the opposite direction to the limiting ropes.

[0004] Currently, ALC panels in my country are generally prefabricated in factories and then transported to the construction area for installation using vehicles. Before installation, the ALC panels need to be cut to the designed dimensions, and then manually transported to the installation location. Although the aforementioned patented construction method and installation system for ALC panels can improve the stability and smoothness of the installation process, the installation process still requires frequent lifting of individual ALC panels, application of leveling mortar, laying of mesh fabric, and application of special adhesive mortar. Furthermore, to prevent the ALC panels from shifting, each panel is generally fixed to the building wall using nails. All these factors negatively impact the installation efficiency of ALC panels, hinder construction progress, and make it difficult to achieve the expected high-efficiency operation goals, thus affecting the overall construction progress and benefits of the project.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, Embodiment 1 of this utility model provides a modular lightweight exterior wall panel with an outer frame, comprising: a wall panel body 1 and connecting components 2; the wall panel body 1 includes an outer frame 11 and a plurality of ALC panels 12 disposed inside the outer frame 11; the connecting components 2 are disposed on the outer side of the wall panel body 1. During use, the outer frame 11 is cast according to design requirements, and multiple connecting components 2 are used to ensure that the multiple ALC panels 12 adapted to it can be stably assembled into the interior of the outer frame 11; simultaneously, the connecting components 2 can be used for hoisting operations of the lightweight exterior wall panel and play a key role in connecting the lightweight exterior wall panel to the building wall; in this way, the lightweight characteristics of the ALC panel can be fully utilized to construct a modular large-area exterior wall panel, thereby avoiding the construction inconsistencies caused by assembling individual ALC panels during construction, thus significantly improving assembly efficiency and reducing overall costs.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the wall panel body 1 includes an outer frame 11 and a plurality of ALC panels 12 disposed inside the outer frame 11, for modular construction of the plurality of ALC panels 12. The dimensions of the outer frame 11 are matched to the installation position on the building wall, and a plurality of support beams 111 are provided inside it; the plurality of ALC panels 12 are disposed inside the outer frame 11, and the ALC panels 12 are arranged parallel to the axial direction of the support beams 111. During use, the structural strength of the outer frame 11 is enhanced by several supporting beams 111, and several ALC panels 12 located inside the outer frame 11 are separated to reduce collision damage and safety accidents caused by possible slippage of the ALC panels 12. Furthermore, this design allows the wall panel body 1 to simultaneously meet vertical and horizontal installation requirements, improving the applicability of the lightweight exterior wall panel. Secondly, by pre-assembling several ALC panels 12 into the outer frame 11, operations such as applying leveling mortar, laying mesh cloth, and applying special adhesive mortar between and on the surfaces of multiple ALC panels 12 can be performed on the ground, significantly improving construction efficiency.

[0034] Furthermore, the outer frame 11 has a plurality of first through holes 112 evenly provided on its upper end face, bottom end face, and both sides for stable assembly of the connecting component 2. Preferably, the outer frame 11 is made of reinforced concrete or rust-resistant metal material to reduce material costs while meeting strength requirements.

[0035] Furthermore, the outer frame 11 is precast using molds and concrete adapted to the dimensions of the building walls to improve construction efficiency and yield. Preferably, the concrete contains a reinforcing cage to further enhance the structural strength of the outer frame 11.

[0036] Preferably, the number of the support beams 111 is at least one, to ensure that the overall structural strength meets the design requirements.

[0037] Preferably, within the outer frame 11, the ALC panels 12 are arranged sequentially in the horizontal direction, with adjacent ALC panels 12 in contact with each other, and the number of ALC panels 12 arranged continuously in the horizontal direction is at most four, so as to avoid the problem of reduced strength of the wall panel body 1 by controlling the number of ALC panels 12 in a single hole.

[0038] Preferably, the width of the ALC panel 12 is the same as the width of the outer frame 11, so as to realize the connection construction of the ALC panel 12 and the outer frame 11 laid flat on the horizontal ground, thereby significantly reducing the construction difficulty and complexity and effectively improving the preparation efficiency of the lightweight exterior wall panel.

[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the connecting component 2 is located on the outside of the wall panel body 1 to stably connect other components. The connecting component 2 includes a first connecting member 21 and a second connecting member 22. The first connecting member 21 is located on the outside of the wall panel body 1, and one side of it has a second through hole 211 corresponding to the first through hole 112. One end of the second connecting member 22 passes through the second through hole 211 and the first through hole 112 in sequence and is fixedly connected to the ALC plate 12. During use, the connection between the second connecting member 22 and the ALC plate 12 effectively improves the overall structural strength of the wall panel body 1, while simultaneously ensuring that the first connecting member 21 is stably located on the outside of the wall panel body 1, reducing the number of openings on the wall panel body 1, thereby improving manufacturing efficiency.

[0040] Further, the first connector 21 includes a first plate portion and a second plate portion connected to each other. The first plate portion is in close contact with the outer surface of the wall panel body 1. One end of the second plate portion is connected to the first plate portion, and the other end extends towards the building wall to be connected. The first plate portion and the second plate portion are arranged perpendicularly or at a certain angle to stably connect the building wall. In this embodiment, the first connector 21 is an L-shaped connector. The second plate portion is vertically disposed at the end of the first plate portion, and its middle portion has a through hole for connecting the building wall. In an optional embodiment, the first connector 21 includes a first plate portion, a second plate portion, and a third plate portion. The second plate portion and the third plate portion are symmetrical about the axis of the first plate portion and are disposed on the outside of the wall panel body 1, so that when the wall panel body 1 is assembled, the second plate portion and the third plate portion can clamp the building wall to be connected, further improving the connection strength between the lightweight exterior wall panel and the building wall. It is understood that when the first connector 21 includes multiple plates, several plates can extend into the building wall and / or the wall panel body 1 respectively, thereby enhancing the connection stability. In addition, the holes on the plates used for connection can also serve as connection holes for hoisting devices, thereby eliminating additional construction steps and further improving assembly efficiency.

[0041] Preferably, the outer frame 11 has a matching groove in the contact area with the first plate of the first connector 21, so that the outer surface of the first connector 21 is flush with the outer surface of the outer frame 11, which is beneficial to the subsequent assembly of the wall panel body 1.

[0042] Preferably, the second connector 22 includes a connecting screw or a nail to ensure connection stability. It should be noted that other types of connectors may be used in other embodiments; these are not specifically limited here, but all such solutions are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, the connecting component 2 of Embodiment 2 of this utility model includes: a third connecting member 23; the third connecting member 23 is attached to the outer side of the outer frame 11 and the ALC plate 12, and is fixedly connected to the outer frame 11 and the ALC plate 12 respectively, and one end of the third connecting member 23 extends out of the wall panel body 1, so as to stably connect with the building wall to be assembled under the condition of ensuring the stability of the wall panel body structure and serve as a connecting component of the hoisting device. At the same time, it simplifies the pouring operation of the outer frame 11 and improves the overall construction efficiency. Preferably, the end extending out of the wall panel body 1 is a square plate. It should be noted that in other embodiments, the end extending out of the wall panel body 1 can also adopt other shapes, which are not specifically limited here, but these solutions are all within the protection scope of this invention.

[0045] In an alternative embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the third connector 23 extends a branch from the wall panel body 1 toward the outer frame 11. This branch is in close contact with and fixedly connected to the outer frame 11, thereby improving the connection stability between the third connector 23 and the wall panel body 1, as well as the stability during hoisting. Preferably, the branch is a square plate, and it is adapted to the outer groove of the outer frame 11, thus facilitating processing and subsequent assembly of the wall panel body 1. It should be noted that in other embodiments, branch plates of other shapes can also be used, which are not specifically limited here, but these solutions are all within the protection scope of this invention.

[0046] Furthermore, the connecting component 2 also includes a fourth connector 24, which is disposed on the outer surface of the support beam 111 facing the wall panel. The middle portion is fixedly connected to the support beam 111, and both ends extend towards the sides of the outer frame 11 and are fixedly connected to the corresponding ALC plates 12. This further enhances the structural stability of the wall panel body 1 and improves assembly safety when the lightweight outer wall panel has a large area. It can be understood that the fourth connector 24 enhances the connection stability between the outer frame 11 and the ALC plate 12 in the middle region of the wall panel body 1, avoiding potential safety risks.

[0047] Other technical features are the same as in Embodiment 1 and can achieve the same technical effects, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0048] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Based on the area of ​​the wall panels to be installed in the building wall, the dimensions of the outer frame 11 and the ALC panels 12 are reasonably designed. During the construction process of the building wall, the outer frame 11 is poured, and the ALC panels 12 of suitable size are obtained through steam curing or cutting. The outer frame 11 is laid flat on a flat ground, and the corresponding number of ALC panels 12 are accurately placed inside the outer frame 11 using hoisting equipment. The connecting parts 2 are installed on the pre-assembled wall panel body 1. After the installation of the connecting parts 2 on one side of the wall panel body 1 is completed, the wall panel body 1 is flipped over, and the installation of the connecting parts 2 on the other side is continued. Then, the wall panel body 1 is coated with leveling mortar, laid with mesh cloth, and coated with special adhesive mortar. After a period of time, the preparation of the lightweight exterior wall panel is completed. At this time, it can be transported to the construction site and assembled into the building wall using the connecting parts 2 and hoisting equipment.

[0049] It is understood that the lightweight exterior wall panel can also be used as an interior wall panel during the building's construction process.

[0050] It should be noted that if the embodiments of this utility model involve directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indicators are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

Therefore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.

If the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
