Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of sightseeing elevators, and in particular to a glass car wall structure for a sightseeing elevator. Background Technology

[0002] A sightseeing elevator is a vertical lift powered by an electric motor, equipped with a box-shaped cabin, used for transporting people or goods in multi-story buildings. Passengers can view the scenery outside the car while riding the elevator. The shaft and car walls are transparent on at least one side, allowing passengers to view the scenery outside the car. Elevators are mainly installed in hotels, shopping malls, and high-rise office buildings. One or more shaft walls and car walls are made of transparent material on the same side, allowing passengers to view the scenery outside the car while riding the elevator.

[0003] Existing sightseeing elevators typically consist of a glass body, fixed components at both ends of the glass body for mounting to the top and bottom of the elevator car, and supporting members for mounting decorative panels to the finished product via bolts. Because the decorative panels usually have visible bolt holes, this disrupts the overall aesthetic (especially affecting the visual appeal of the sightseeing elevator), and subsequent disassembly and replacement are relatively time-consuming. Therefore, further improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the above problems, this application provides a glass car wall structure for a sightseeing elevator.

[0005] This application provides a glass car wall structure for a sightseeing elevator, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A glass car wall structure for a sightseeing elevator includes a glass body and two fixing components respectively disposed at the upper and lower ends of the glass body. The fixing components are used to fix the glass body. Each fixing component includes a support member and an outer decorative panel and an inner decorative panel respectively disposed on opposite surfaces of the support member. The upper end of the outer decorative panel is higher than the height of the support member to form a placement groove for placing the glass body. Several screws are disposed on the surface of the outer decorative panel near the support member. The support member has a through hole along its own thickness. The screws pass through the through hole and are threaded with nuts. The upper and lower ends of the inner decorative panel both have insert plates protruding towards the support member. The upper and lower ends of the support member are both bent into snap-fit ​​plates that match the insert plates. The insert plates are snap-fitted into the snap-fit ​​plates in the vertical direction.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, a fixing assembly is formed using a support component, an outer decorative panel, and an inner decorative panel. The upper ends of the outer and inner decorative panels are higher than the support component, forming a placement groove, which facilitates the placement and fixing of the glass body. The outer decorative panel is securely connected to the support component by screws passing through holes in the support component and threaded with nuts. The snap-fit ​​plates at the upper and lower ends of the inner decorative panel are vertically snapped into the snap-fit ​​plates bent at the upper and lower ends of the support component, realizing a detachable connection between the inner decorative panel and the support component. This reduces the problem of visible bolt holes on the decorative panel surface that damages the overall appearance caused by traditional bolt connections, and makes subsequent disassembly and replacement of the inner decorative panel more convenient and time-saving.

[0008] Preferably, the support member includes a vertical portion that abuts against the outer decorative panel and two horizontal portions respectively disposed at the upper and lower ends of the vertical portion. The snap-fit ​​plate is vertically disposed and perpendicular to the horizontal portions; the two snap-fit ​​plates are L-shaped.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the vertical part of the support abuts against the outer decorative panel, the horizontal part is set at the upper and lower ends of the vertical part, the snap-fit ​​plate is vertical and perpendicular to the horizontal part, and the two snap-fit ​​plates are set in an L-shape, making the snap-fit ​​structure between the inner decorative panel and the support more reasonable, and making it easier for the inner decorative panel to be snapped into the snap-fit ​​plate in the vertical direction through the snap-fit ​​plate, so as to realize the detachable connection between the two.

[0010] Preferably, the lower end of the inner decorative panel extends to cover the vertical portion. Of the two insert plates, the insert plate closer to the glass body is the first insert plate, and the other is the second insert plate. A connecting plate is provided between the second insert plate and the inner decorative panel, and the connecting plate abuts against the inner decorative panel and the insert plate.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the lower end of the interior trim panel covering the vertical part can enhance the aesthetics and protection of the overall structure. Correspondingly, a connecting plate is provided for the installation of the second clip panel, which can further strengthen the connection between the interior trim panel and the supporting components and improve the structural stability.

[0012] Preferably, of the two mounting plates, the mounting plate closer to the glass body is the first mounting plate, and the other is the second mounting plate. The width of the first mounting plate in the horizontal direction is greater than the width of the second mounting plate in the horizontal direction. The fixing assembly also includes a limiting member disposed in the placement groove. The limiting member includes a limiting strip abutting against the vertical part and the horizontal part. The limiting strip is disposed along the entire length of the horizontal part. The two opposing surfaces of the limiting strip abut against the surfaces of the first mounting plate and the mounting plate that are close to each other.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the width of the first card panel is set to be greater than that of the second card panel. Combined with the limiting strip abutting against the vertical part, the horizontal part, the first card panel and the card plate, the stability and reliability of the connection between the interior decorative panel and the support component are improved, ensuring the overall stability of the glass car wall structure. At the same time, the limiting strip is set along its entire length to further enhance the limiting effect.

[0014] Preferably, the fixing component further includes a buffer member disposed in the placement groove, the buffer member being connected to the glass body.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, a buffer is set in the placement groove of the fixing component and connected to the glass body, which can buffer the impact force on the glass body, reduce the damage caused by direct collision between the glass body and the fixing component, and improve the service life and safety of the glass body.

[0016] Preferably, the buffer is an elastic rubber pad.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the buffer component uses an elastic rubber pad, which can buffer the impact force between the glass body and the fixing component, reduce the risk of damage to the glass body, and protect the glass body.

[0018] Preferably, the elastic rubber pad includes a first rubber pad and a second rubber pad, the second rubber pad being higher than the first rubber pad, and glass glue is used to fill the space between the glass body and the outer decorative panel. The first rubber pad is used to connect with the glass body.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic rubber pad is divided into a first rubber pad and a second rubber pad, and the second rubber pad is higher than the first rubber pad. In conjunction with the glass glue filling the space between the glass body and the outer decorative panel, since some of the filling glass glue may overflow onto the upper surface of the first rubber pad, the second rubber pad is used to restrict the flow of the glass glue and also improve the connection strength between the glass body and the first rubber pad.

[0020] Preferably, the fixing assembly further includes a filler for filling the gap between the outer decorative panel, the inner decorative panel and the glass body.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the gap between the outer decorative panel, the inner decorative panel and the glass body is filled by the filler in the fixed component, which can ensure the integrity and stability of the structure and improve the overall strength and appearance quality of the glass car wall structure of the sightseeing elevator.

[0022] Preferably, the fixing component further includes an auxiliary component for detaching the interior trim panel from the support member.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, since the interior trim panel is detachably connected by snap-fitting the snap-fitting plate to the support member, in order to facilitate the detachable connection of the interior trim panel to the support member, an auxiliary part is set to facilitate the removal of the interior trim panel from the support member, which facilitates subsequent maintenance operations such as disassembly and replacement of the glass car wall.

[0024] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. Exterior and interior decorative panels cover the supporting components to avoid exposed bolt holes, thereby improving the overall appearance and visual effect of the glass car walls of the sightseeing elevator;

[0026] 2. The interior trim panels are detachably connected by snap-fitting plates to the support components, which facilitates the subsequent disassembly and replacement of the glass car walls and saves time;

[0027] 3. The upper part of the exterior and interior decorative panels forms a groove to hold the glass body, making the structure stable. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 5 This application will be described in further detail below.

[0035] This application discloses a glass car wall structure for a sightseeing elevator.

[0036] Example 1:

[0037] A sightseeing elevator glass car wall structure, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 It includes a glass body 1 and two fixing components 2 respectively disposed at the upper and lower ends of the glass body 1. The fixing components 2 are used to fix the glass body 1.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The fixing component 2 specifically includes a support 21, an outer decorative panel 22, an inner decorative panel 23, a buffer 24, a limiting component 25, and a sealing plate 26.

[0039] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 The outer decorative panel 22 and the inner decorative panel 23 are respectively disposed on opposite surfaces of the support member 21. The height of the upper ends of the outer decorative panel 22 and the inner decorative panel 23 is higher than the height of the support member 21, so that a placement groove 3 for placing the glass body 1 is formed between them and the support member 21. This arrangement allows the glass body 1 to be placed stably in it, achieving the effect of facilitating the installation of the glass body 1 and ensuring structural stability. The reason is that the placement groove 3 provides accurate positioning and support for the glass body 1.

[0040] The support member 21 supports the glass body 1. Specifically, the support member 21 includes a vertical portion 211 that abuts against the outer decorative panel 22, and two horizontal portions 212 respectively disposed at the upper and lower ends of the vertical portion 211. The horizontal portions 212 are bent into shape from the vertical portion 211, forming a U-shape with their openings facing the inner decorative panel 23. Taking the glass body 1 as a reference, the width of the horizontal portion 212 closer to the glass body 1 is wider than the width of the horizontal portion 212 farther from the glass body 1.

[0041] The outer decorative panel 22 has a first flange 221 formed by bending the end closest to the glass body 1, and a second flange 222 formed by bending the end furthest from the glass body 1. Both the first flange 221 and the second flange 222 are provided along the entire length of the outer decorative panel 22. The first flange 221 is located close to the glass body 1 and abuts against it. The width of the second flange 222 is longer than the width of the first flange 221. The end of the inner decorative panel 23 furthest from the glass body 1 extends to cover the second flange 222.

[0042] Specifically, for the connection between the outer decorative panel 22 and the support member 21, a plurality of screws 223 are welded to the inner surface of the outer decorative panel 22. These screws 223 are spaced apart along both the length and height directions of the outer decorative panel 22. A through hole is provided in the vertical portion 211 along its thickness direction, through which the screws 223 pass. Nuts 224 are threaded onto the screws 223 for installation onto the support member 21. It should be noted that the second flange 222 provided on the outer decorative panel 22 abuts against the lower surface of the horizontal portion 212 of the support member 21, and has the same width as the horizontal portion 212.

[0043] Specifically, for the connection between the interior decorative panel 23 and the support member 21, both the upper and lower ends of the interior decorative panel 23 have insert plates 4 protruding towards the support member 21. The two insert plates 4 are arranged in an L-shape. The insert plate 4 closer to the glass body 1 is the first insert plate 4, and the other is the second insert plate 4. Both the upper and lower ends of the support member 21 are bent into snap-fit ​​plates 5 that match the insert plates 4. The snap-fit ​​plates 5 are vertically arranged and perpendicular to the horizontal part 212. The insert plate 4 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​plate 5 in the vertical direction. Since the end of the interior decorative panel 23 away from the glass body 1 extends and covers the second flange 222, a connecting plate 41 is provided between the second insert plate 4 and the interior decorative panel 23 to facilitate the snap-fit ​​of the second insert plate 4. The two abutting surfaces of the connecting plate 41 abut against the interior decorative panel 23 and the snap-fit ​​plate 5, respectively.

[0044] The buffer 24 is disposed in the placement groove 3 and can be glued to the placement groove 3. The buffer 24 is disposed along the entire length of the support 21. In this embodiment, the buffer 24 is specifically an elastic rubber pad, which includes a first rubber pad 241 and a second rubber pad 242. The first rubber pad 241 is used to connect with the glass body 1, which is specifically glued. The height of the second rubber pad 242 is higher than the height of the first rubber pad 241. Glass glue is used to fill the space between the glass body 1 and the outer decorative panel 22.

[0045] The limiting member 25 is also provided in the placement groove 3. The limiting member 25 includes a limiting strip that abuts against the vertical part 211 and the horizontal part 212. The limiting strip is provided along the entire length of the horizontal part 212. The two surfaces of the limiting strip abut against the surfaces of the first card plate and the card plate 5 that are close to each other.

[0046] Two sealing plates 26 are provided and are respectively provided on both sides of the outer decorative panel 22. The cross section of the side plate along its thickness direction is L-shaped. The side plate abutting against the plate body of the outer decorative panel 22 also has through holes for the screw 223 to pass through. The corresponding nut 224 is threaded to the screw 223 to install the side plate on the outer decorative panel 22.

[0047] The implementation principle of a sightseeing elevator glass car wall structure in this application embodiment is as follows: by setting a special fixing component 2, the outer decorative panel 22 and the support member 21 are connected by screws 223 and nuts 224, and the snap-fit ​​plate 4 and snap-fit ​​plate 5 realize the detachable connection between the inner decorative panel 23 and the support member 21, which reduces the appearance problems caused by traditional bolt connections, and at the same time facilitates installation and disassembly.

[0048] Example 2:

[0049] Reference Figure 5 The difference from Embodiment 1 is that the fixing component 2 further includes a filler 27 for filling the gap between the outer decorative panel 22, the inner decorative panel 23, and the glass body 1. The filler 27 can be a foam board, which has advantages such as being lightweight and providing sound insulation. Alternatively, sponge or rubber pads can be used. The filler 27 makes the structure between the outer decorative panel 22 and the inner decorative panel 23 more compact, while also providing a certain degree of sound insulation and heat insulation.

[0050] Furthermore, the fixing assembly 2 also includes an auxiliary component 28 for detaching the interior trim panel 23 from the support member 21. The auxiliary component 28 can be a simple pry bar; when it is necessary to remove the interior trim panel 23, the pry bar is inserted between the clip plate 4 and the snap plate 5, and a certain amount of external force is applied to easily remove the interior trim panel 23. Alternatively, the auxiliary component 28 can also be a specially designed disassembly tool. The design of the auxiliary component 28 facilitates the disassembly of the interior trim panel 23, improving the efficiency of maintenance and replacement. Alternatively, the auxiliary component 28 can also be a lifting rope fixedly connected to the first clip plate 4, depending on the specific requirements.

[0051] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
