Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of curtain wall technology, specifically, it relates to an edge-sealing structure for an operable glass curtain wall. Background Technology
[0002] In the installation of conventional curtain wall glass, using aluminum profiles for edge finishing is a common and widely used practice. This construction method has significant advantages: its construction process is relatively simple, and it demonstrates strong adaptability to curtain wall glass of different shapes and sizes, as well as various complex building structures. It can complete the edge finishing work relatively efficiently, ensuring the installation quality and overall aesthetics of the curtain wall glass.
[0003] However, a deeper analysis from a thermal performance perspective reveals that aluminum profiles have a high thermal conductivity, meaning their heat transfer performance is excellent. When there is a significant temperature difference between indoors and outdoors, aluminum profiles act as a highly efficient heat conduction bridge, allowing for rapid heat exchange between the two spaces. With large temperature differences, this significant heat exchange through aluminum profiles inevitably increases energy consumption to ensure indoor comfort and may even lead to localized condensation. Therefore, improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content
