Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inorganic coating plate installation technology; specifically, this utility model relates to an inorganic coating plate installation tool based on gravity self-locking. Background Technology
[0002] Inorganic clad panels are a type of composite material board, primarily composed of inorganic materials as the outer cladding layer, with other substrates possibly included internally. These panels combine the excellent properties of inorganic materials with the advantages of other materials, primarily exhibiting superior fire resistance, strong weather resistance, environmental friendliness, non-toxicity, and durability, making them widely used in the construction industry.
[0003] In the application of inorganic cladding panels, the main installation method involves fixing and attaching them to the existing wall surface. During this process, it is crucial to ensure the flatness and verticality of the cladding panels, while also effectively sealing and waterproofing the joints. Traditional construction methods involve installing each inorganic cladding panel individually using auxiliary clamps or adhesives. However, due to the lack of effective auxiliary tools, the fixing and positioning of the cladding panels require manual comparison according to pre-marked lines, necessitating repeated measurements. This results in low construction efficiency and significant errors. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an inorganic coating plate installation tool based on gravity self-locking, thereby solving or at least alleviating the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art.
[0005] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, this utility model provides a gravity-based self-locking inorganic coating plate installation tool, including a lower clamp capable of supporting the inorganic coating plate from the bottom, the lower clamp comprising:
[0006] The lower mounting plate is installed on the wall using expansion bolts.

[0019] A wedge block is fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the through groove, with the inclined surface of the wedge block facing the inorganic coating plate. The bottom of the plate sleeve is configured to match the inclined surface of the wedge block. When the plate sleeve moves downward on the inclined surface of the wedge block, it drives the two upper clamping arms to move away from the wall.
[0020] Optionally, the gravity-based self-locking inorganic coating plate installation tool described above may also include:
[0021] A pull screw sleeve is rotatably mounted on the lower clamping arm and located on the outer side of the inorganic coating plate. Both ends of the pull screw sleeve penetrate the lower clamping arm.
[0022] A long screw is inserted through the upper clamping arm. The bottom end of the long screw can be threaded into the pull screw sleeve. The long screw is fixedly provided with stops that contact the upper and lower ends of the upper clamping arm respectively.

Detailed Implementation
[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0033] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, this embodiment provides a gravity-based self-locking inorganic coating plate installation tool, including a lower clamp capable of supporting the inorganic coating plate from the bottom. The lower clamp includes:
[0034] The lower mounting plate 1 is installed on the wall using expansion bolts;
[0035] The two lower clamping arms 2 are configured in an "L" shape. The two lower clamping arms 2 can move relative to each other on the lower mounting plate 1 along the width direction of the inorganic coating plate, and are used to clamp the inorganic coating plate from both sides.
[0036] The lower support plate 3 can move up and down on the lower mounting plate 1. The lower support plate 3 is used to support the bottom of the inorganic coating plate.
[0037] The transmission structure is set between the lower support plate 3 and the two lower clamping arms 2. When the lower support plate 3 is displaced downward by the gravity of the inorganic coating plate, it drives the two lower clamping arms 2 to move relative to each other and clamp the inorganic coating plate.
[0038] The lower mounting plate 1 has mounting holes 4 at each of its four corners for mounting expansion bolts. This design ensures that the lower mounting plate 1 is securely and reliably installed on the wall and will not deflect.
[0039] The transmission structure includes:
[0040] The circular gear 5 is rotatably mounted inside the lower mounting plate 1;
[0041] Two transverse racks 6 mesh with the upper and lower ends of the spur gear 5 respectively, and the opposite ends of the two transverse racks are fixedly connected to the two lower clamping arms 2 respectively.
[0042] The longitudinal rack 7 meshes with one side of the spur gear 5, and the bottom end of the longitudinal rack is fixedly connected to the lower support plate 3, which is used to drive the spur gear 5 to rotate.
[0043] In this embodiment, when the lower support plate 3 is displaced downward by the gravity of the inorganic coating plate, the longitudinal rack 7 drives the sprocket 5 to rotate, and the sprocket 5 drives the two transverse racks 6 to move relative to each other, thereby causing the two lower clamping arms 2 to move relative to each other to clamp and fix the inorganic coating plate, thus achieving a gravity self-locking effect.
[0044] like Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the gravity-based self-locking inorganic coating plate installation tool of this embodiment also includes an upper clamp located above the lower clamp. The upper clamp can clamp the inorganic coating plate from both sides and can adjust the verticality of the inorganic coating plate. The upper clamp includes:
[0045] The upper mounting plate 8 is mounted on the wall by expansion bolts, and its center is provided with an upper mounting hole 9 for mounting the expansion bolts;
[0046] The two upper clamping arms 10 are configured in an "L" shape, and the opposite ends of the two upper clamping arms 10 are laterally slidingly engaged. The upper mounting plate 8 is provided with a through groove 11 for the opposite ends of the two upper clamping arms 10 to pass through.
[0047] The plate sleeve 12 is slidably disposed in the through groove 11 in the height direction, and the plate sleeve 12 is sleeved on the opposite ends of the two upper clamping arms 10, and the opposite ends of the two upper clamping arms 10 can be laterally displaced within the plate sleeve 12.
[0048] The wedge block 13 is fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the through groove 11, and the inclined surface of the wedge block 13 faces the inorganic coating plate. The bottom of the plate sleeve 12 is set to match the inclined surface of the wedge block 13. When the plate sleeve 12 moves downward on the inclined surface of the wedge block 13, it drives the two upper clamping arms 10 to move away from the wall.
[0049] In this embodiment, the inorganic coating plate is clamped from both sides by two upper clamping arms 10, allowing the upper clamping arms 10 to work in conjunction with the lower clamping arm 2 to fix the inorganic coating plate at multiple points, thereby improving the fixing effect of the inorganic coating plate. When the plate sleeve 12 moves downward on the wedge block 13, it drives the upper clamping arms 10 to move, allowing the upper clamping arms 10 to push the inorganic coating plate away from the wall, thereby adjusting the verticality of the inorganic coating plate.
[0050] Furthermore, the gravity-based self-locking inorganic coating plate installation tool of this embodiment also includes:
[0051] Pull screw sleeve 14 is rotatably mounted on the lower clamping arm 2 and located on the outer side of the inorganic coating plate. Both ends of the pull screw sleeve 14 penetrate the lower clamping arm 2.
[0052] A long screw 15 is threaded through the upper clamping arm 10. The bottom end of the long screw 15 can be threaded into the pull screw sleeve 14. A stop block 16 is fixedly provided on the long screw 15, which respectively contacts the upper and lower ends of the upper clamping arm 10.
[0053] A strip groove 17 is formed on the upper clamping arm 10, and a long screw 15 passes through the strip groove 17, and the long screw 15 can be displaced relative to the strip groove 17 in a direction perpendicular to the wall.
[0054] By threading the long screw 15 with the pull screw sleeve 14, when the lower clamping arm 2 achieves self-locking clamping of the inorganic coating plate under the gravity of the inorganic coating plate, the pull screw sleeve 14 and the long screw 15 will drive the upper clamping arm 10 to clamp and fix the inorganic coating plate simultaneously.
[0055] Next, by rotating and pulling the threaded sleeve 14, the long screw 15, in conjunction with the stop block 16, pulls the upper clamping arm 10 downward, causing the plate sleeve 12 to displace downward on the inclined surface of the wedge block 13. At this time, the upper clamping arm 10 moves away from the wall, the long screw 15 displaces within the strip groove 17, and the upper clamping arm 10 pushes the top of the inorganic coating plate outward to adjust and calibrate the verticality of the inorganic coating plate. After the verticality of the inorganic coating plate is adjusted and calibrated, the two stops 16 can support the upper clamping arm 10 in the height direction, stabilizing the inorganic coating plate in the calibrated state.
[0056] In practical use:
[0057] (1) Wall surface treatment: Clean the wall surface of dust, oil stains, loose materials and other impurities. For uneven walls, use cement mortar to level them, with the error controlled within ±5mm, to ensure that the wall surface has the basic conditions for installation.
[0058] (2) Measurement and layout: Based on the design drawings, use a tape measure and a level to accurately mark the installation position lines of the inorganic cladding board on the wall, including horizontal and vertical grid lines, and mark the key control points to ensure that the board seams are aligned and the board surface is horizontal and vertical during subsequent installation.
[0059] (3) Locating the installation points: According to the measurement and layout results, mark the fixing points of the inorganic coating board installation tools on the wall. The spacing between the fixing points should be reasonably designed according to the size and weight of the inorganic coating board, and should avoid the water and electricity pipelines inside the wall.
[0060] (4) Wall fixing: Drill holes at the marked fixing points, insert expansion bolts, and firmly install the inorganic coating plate installation tool on the wall. Tighten the bolts with a wrench to ensure that each installation is firm and can withstand a tensile force of not less than 500N.
[0061] (5) Tool debugging: After installing the inorganic coating plate installation tool, install the upper clamping arm 10 and the lower clamping arm 2 and other moving parts. Check whether the opening and closing of the upper clamping arm 10 and the lower clamping arm 2 is smooth and whether the self-locking function is normal. If necessary, fine-tune the parts to ensure that they can accurately clamp the inorganic coating plate.
[0062] (6) Lifting and positioning: Use small lifting equipment (such as electric hoist) or manual handling to move the inorganic coating plate to the vicinity of the installation position, and adjust the direction of the plate so that one end is aligned with the installed upper clamping arm 10 and lower clamping arm 2.
[0063] (7) Clamping and locking: Slowly push the inorganic coating plate between the lower clamping arms 2 and between the lower clamping arms 2. When the plate touches the lower support plate 3, it presses down on the lower support plate 3 by its own weight, triggering the gravity self-locking mechanism of the lower clamp. The lower clamping arms 2 automatically clamp the coating plate, completing the first fixation.
[0064] (8) Multi-point fixing: Move the upper clamping arm 10 so that the long screw 15 is threadedly connected to the pull screw sleeve 14. During this process, the long screw 15 pulls the upper clamping arm 10 downward, and the upper clamping arm 10 moves away from the wall, so as to adjust and calibrate the verticality of the board and control the deviation within 3mm.
[0065] (9) Splicing treatment: Leave a 3-5mm gap at the splicing of adjacent inorganic coating boards to ensure space for thermal expansion and contraction. Use matching metal or plastic strips to embed in the gap to enhance the aesthetics and integrity of the splicing.
[0066] (10) Sealing treatment: Fill the gaps between the boards with special sealant, such as silicone sealant. Use a glue gun to inject it evenly, and the filling degree should reach more than 90%. After the sealant has cured, it can effectively prevent rainwater and air leakage.
[0067] The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the above description. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the above embodiments without departing from the technical concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and variations should fall within the scope of this utility model.
