Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of aluminum alloy doors and windows, specifically to a window frame using snap-fit profiles. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional door frames occupy a certain amount of space, which requires a lot of manpower and resources to transport and move them. They are usually pre-fixed and used directly, but disassembly becomes cumbersome after long-term use due to wear and tear on window frames.
[0003] Although traditional welded or screw-fixed window frames are widely used in buildings, the welded or screw-fixed points are usually subjected to localized stress. Under strong wind loads, stress concentration can easily occur, leading to weld cracking or screw loosening. In addition, traditional window frames are mainly fixed with bolts during installation, making it difficult to effectively adjust the positioning points according to the specifications and shape of the window frame. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a window frame using snap-fit profiles to solve the above-mentioned defects caused by the prior art.
[0005] A window frame using snap-fit profiles includes an alloy window frame, horizontal flat iron pieces, and vertical flat iron pieces. The horizontal flat iron pieces are symmetrically arranged on the top of the alloy window frame. A protective mechanism is provided on the outer side of the alloy window frame, which provides semi-enclosed protection for the bottom end of the alloy window frame, thereby improving the positioning stability of the bottom end. A positioning mechanism is provided on the top of the alloy window frame, which provides vertical positioning for the top end of the alloy window frame. The horizontal and vertical flat iron pieces connect the alloy window frame to the building, dispersing the impact of wind loads on the window frame.
[0006] Preferably, the protective mechanism includes alloy clip one, alloy clip two, positioning holes, convex clips, rubber pads, and positioning groove two. Alloy clip one is symmetrically installed on both sides of the bottom end of the alloy window frame. Alloy clip two is connected to the bottom middle part of the alloy window frame. Both alloy clip one and alloy clip two are provided with positioning holes. Convex clips are provided on the outer side of both alloy clip one and alloy clip two. Rubber pads are provided on the outer side of both the convex clips and alloy clip two. Positioning groove two is provided at the bottom end of the alloy window frame.
[0007] Preferably, the alloy clip two is connected to the inner end of the positioning groove two through a convex clip provided in the middle, and the convex clip is mutually attached to the positioning groove two at the bottom of the alloy window frame through symmetrically arranged rubber pads.
[0008] Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes a horizontal flat iron piece, fasteners, a positioning groove, a fastening hole, a vertical flat iron piece, washers, and nuts. The bottom end of the horizontal flat iron piece is symmetrically welded with vertical flat iron pieces. The outer side of the vertical flat iron piece is connected to the positioning groove. The positioning groove is symmetrically opened at the top of the alloy window frame. The fastening hole is symmetrically opened at the top of the horizontal flat iron piece. The washers are evenly spaced on one side of the alloy window frame. Fasteners are evenly spaced through one side of the alloy window frame. Nuts are evenly spaced through the side of the alloy window frame.
[0009] Preferably, the alloy window frame is connected to the tail end of the fastener by shims that are evenly spaced on the outer side.
[0010] Preferably, the alloy window frame is connected to the outside of the vertical flat iron piece through a positioning groove at the top, and the vertical flat iron piece is connected to one side of the alloy window frame through a fastener.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0012] 1. The horizontal and vertical flat iron pieces form a T-shaped support structure, which disperses the impact of wind load on the window frame and reduces the risk of deformation. After the vertical flat iron pieces are inserted into the positioning slots, the verticality and horizontality of the window frame can be quickly aligned, reducing manual adjustment time. The cooperation between the flat iron pieces and the positioning slots enables plug-in installation, which is more efficient than traditional welding or screwing, and is especially suitable for batch construction.
[0013] 2. Alloy clips one and two partially wrap around the bottom of the window frame from both sides and the middle, forming symmetrical limits to prevent horizontal displacement or tilting of the window frame during installation or use. The clips provide additional support for the outer wrapping of the window frame, dispersing the wind pressure and gravity borne by the window frame and reducing the risk of local deformation of the profile. Rubber pads can be embedded at the joint between the semi-wrapped clips and the window frame to form a continuous waterproof barrier, avoiding the problem of water seepage from the bottom screw holes in traditional installations.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a window frame using snap-fit profiles includes an alloy window frame 1, horizontal flat iron pieces 2, and vertical flat iron pieces 10. Horizontal flat iron pieces 2 are symmetrically arranged above the alloy window frame 1. A protective mechanism 5 is provided on the outer side of the alloy window frame 1, which partially wraps around the bottom of the alloy window frame 1 to improve its positioning stability. A positioning mechanism 7 is provided above the alloy window frame 1 to vertically position the top of the alloy window frame 1. The alloy window frame 1 and the building are connected through the horizontal flat iron pieces 2 and the vertical flat iron pieces 10, thus dispersing the impact of wind loads on the window frame.
[0023] In this embodiment, the protective mechanism 5 includes alloy clip 1 3, alloy clip 2 4, positioning hole 12, convex clip 13, rubber pad 14, and positioning groove 2 16. Alloy clip 1 3 is symmetrically installed on both sides of the bottom end of the alloy window frame 1. Alloy clip 2 4 is connected to the bottom middle part of the alloy window frame 1. Positioning holes 12 are provided on both alloy clip 1 3 and alloy clip 2 4. Convex clip 13 is provided on the outer side of both alloy clip 1 3 and alloy clip 2 4. Rubber pad 14 is provided on the outer side of both the convex clip 13 and alloy clip 2 4. Positioning groove 2 16 is provided at the bottom end of the alloy window frame 1. The bottom end of the alloy window frame 1 is supported by the alloy clip 2 4 and alloy clip 1 3 distributed obliquely at the bottom end, thereby ensuring the stability of the alloy window frame 1 installation.
[0024] In this embodiment, the alloy clip 2 4 is connected to the inner end of the positioning groove 2 16 through the protruding clip 13 in the middle. The protruding clip 13 is in contact with the positioning groove 2 16 at the bottom of the alloy window frame 1 through the symmetrically arranged rubber pads 14. The rubber pads 14 make flexible contact with the positioning groove 2 16 at the bottom of the alloy window frame 1, thereby reducing the corrosion of the window frame by water.
[0025] In this embodiment, the positioning mechanism 7 includes a horizontal flat iron piece 2, fasteners 6, positioning groove 8, fastening holes 9, a vertical flat iron piece 10, washers 11, and nuts 15. The bottom end of the horizontal flat iron piece 2 is symmetrically welded with vertical flat iron pieces 10. The outer side of the vertical flat iron piece 10 is connected to the positioning groove 8. The positioning groove 8 is symmetrically opened at the top of the alloy window frame 1. The fastening holes 9 are symmetrically opened at the top of the horizontal flat iron piece 2. The washers 11 are evenly spaced on one side of the alloy window frame 1. Fasteners 6 are evenly spaced through one side of the alloy window frame 1. Nuts 15 are evenly spaced through the side of the alloy window frame 1. The horizontal flat iron piece 2 and the vertical flat iron piece 10 form a T-shaped support structure, which disperses the impact of wind load on the window frame and reduces the risk of deformation.
[0026] In this embodiment, the alloy window frame 1 is connected to the tail end of the fastener 6 by shims 11 spaced at equal intervals on the outer side. The shims 11 spaced at equal intervals increase the friction of the fastener 6 connection and prevent the fastener 6 from shaking after installation.
[0027] In this embodiment, the alloy window frame 1 is connected to the outside of the vertical flat iron piece 10 through the positioning groove 8 opened at the top. The vertical flat iron piece 10 is connected to one side of the alloy window frame 1 through a fastener 6. The vertical flat iron pieces 10 are symmetrically arranged and docked with the alloy window frame 1, thereby improving the assembly and positioning efficiency of the vertical flat iron pieces 10.
[0028] In practical applications, this type of window frame using snap-fit profiles includes the following tasks:
[0029] Step 1: According to the specifications and dimensions of the convex alloy window frame 1, the construction personnel insert the vertical flat iron piece 10 set at the bottom of the horizontal flat iron piece 2 into the positioning groove 8. Then, according to the installation requirements of the alloy window frame 1, the distance between multiple sets of horizontal flat iron pieces 2 and vertical flat iron pieces 10 of the same size is adjusted. The fastening hole 9 set at the top of the horizontal flat iron piece 2 is then fitted to the building. The horizontal flat iron piece 2 is then connected with expansion screws. Finally, the positioning groove 8 opened at the top of the alloy window frame 1 is connected to the outside of the vertical flat iron piece 10.
[0030] Step 2: Simultaneously, the operator selects alloy clip 1 3 and alloy clip 2 4 of the appropriate size, making the protruding clip 13 in the middle of alloy clip 1 3 and alloy clip 2 4 parallel to the positioning groove 2 16. At the same time, rubber pads 14 of the appropriate specifications are attached to the inner wall of alloy clip 1 3 and alloy clip 2 4 and the two sides of the protruding clip 13. Then, the rubber pads 14 are used to fill and waterproof the gaps between alloy clip 1 3, alloy clip 2 4 and positioning groove 2 16.
[0031] Step 3: The operator attaches alloy clip 3 and alloy clip 4 to the surface of the building, and then inserts bolts vertically so that the bolts pass through the positioning holes 12 opened on the outside of the alloy window frame 1 and alloy clip 3 and alloy clip 4 in sequence. The positioning holes 12 are symmetrically arranged to limit the position of alloy clip 3 and alloy clip 4. At the same time, the fastener 6 is inserted into one side of the alloy window frame 1 so that the tail end of the fastener 6 is locked with the vertical flat iron piece 10 and the alloy window frame 1 to prevent the vertical flat iron piece 10 from loosening at the connection with the positioning groove 8.
[0032] Step 4: After completing the bottom and top of the alloy window frame 1, fill the gaps between alloy clip 1 (3), alloy clip 2 (4), and the alloy window frame 1, or the gap between the alloy window frame 1 and the building, using sealant. Simultaneously, fill the gap between the top of the alloy window frame 1 and the building. Then, insert bolts into the multiple sets of nuts 15 embedded inside the alloy window frame 1 to position the sides of the alloy window frame 1. This completes the side-locking process between the alloy window frame 1 and the building.
[0033] Therefore, the above-disclosed embodiments are merely illustrative in all respects and are not the only ones. All modifications within the scope of this utility model or its equivalents are included in this utility model.
