Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of wall panel installation, and more particularly to a wall panel installation structure. Background Technology
[0002] Prefabricated wall panels are convenient and quick to install, but after a certain number of years or due to accidental damage to parts of the wall, disassembly and replacement become quite troublesome. They typically require removal one by one from one end, making localized repairs or replacements difficult. Furthermore, gaps exist between adjacent wall panels, which can easily trap dirt and grime, making cleaning inconvenient. Larger gaps also affect aesthetics, and filling these gaps with grout increases construction costs and time.
[0003] Chinese patent application publication number "CN115450388A" entitled "A Demountable Prefabricated Wall Structure" discloses a wall structure that can be independently disassembled. It is installed using screws, which results in a slow installation speed and requires the installation of caulking fittings, leading to higher costs.
[0004] Chinese patent application No. CN112144807B, entitled "A Wall Panel Installation Structure and Installation Method Thereof," discloses a wall panel installation structure that uses a large amount of glue, which easily releases formaldehyde and is inconvenient to disassemble. Moreover, there are large gaps between the wall panels, and the use of sealant will further increase the release of formaldehyde. Utility Model Content
[0005] This application provides a wall panel mounting structure to at least solve the disassembly technology problems existing in the prior art.
[0006] According to this application, a wall panel installation structure is provided, including a first main wall panel, a first side panel, a second main wall panel, a second side panel, an elastic clip, and a support. The first main wall panel is connected to the first side panel at a certain angle, and the second main wall panel is connected to the second side panel at a certain angle. The elastic clip is provided with an elastic groove, and the first side panel and the second side panel can be inserted into the elastic groove. The elastic clip is installed on the support, and the support is installed on the wall.
[0007] Compared with existing technologies, the wall panel installation structure of this application has the following advantages:
[0008] The first and second side panels can be tightly fitted together by the elastic clips, resulting in a small gap between the first and second main wall panels. No other connecting structures are required. Because the elastic clips have a certain degree of elasticity, the wall panels can be quickly disassembled by changing the snap-fit state of the elastic clips. Any wall panel can be disassembled for easy replacement of any wall panel individually. Alternatively, during renovation, the elastic clips and support parts can be retained, and only the wall panels need to be replaced, which can reduce renovation costs and time.
[0009] In one embodiment, the first main wall panel is perpendicular to the first side panel, and the second main wall panel is perpendicular to the second side panel. For a flat wall surface, the first main wall panel and the second main wall panel need to be in the same plane, so they need to be perpendicular. Of course, the angle between the first main wall panel and the first side panel is complementary to the angle between the second main wall panel and the second side panel, which can also ensure that the first main wall panel and the second main wall panel are in the same plane. However, during installation, they need to be inserted into the elastic slot at an angle, which makes the installation more difficult.
[0010] In one embodiment, a first main wall panel and a first side panel are provided with a first membrane, and the first main wall panel and the first side panel are connected through the first membrane. The first main wall panel is provided with a 45-degree bevel near the end of the first side panel, and the first side panel is provided with a 45-degree bevel near the end of the first main wall panel, so that the first main wall panel and the first side panel are perpendicularly connected. A second main wall panel and a second side panel are provided with a second membrane, and the second main wall panel and the second side panel are connected through the second membrane. The second main wall panel is provided with a 45-degree bevel near the end of the second side panel, and the second side panel is provided with a 45-degree bevel near the end of the second main wall panel, so that the second main wall panel and the second side panel are perpendicularly connected. The first membrane can be made of elastic PVC film material that can be bent at a large angle and has high strength.
[0011] In one embodiment, a barb is provided at the center of the elastic slot. The barbs on the barb allow the first side plate and the second side plate to be inserted into the elastic slot in the direction of the barbs. The first side plate and the second side plate abut against the barbs to prevent the first side plate and the second side plate from moving in the pull-out direction. When disassembly is required, a thin card can be inserted between the first side plate and the second side plate to separate the barb from the first side plate or the second side plate. After the first side plate or the second side plate is removed, the thin card can be taken out. The wall panel can be attracted by a suction cup and pulled to pull the wall panel out of the elastic slot.
[0012] In one embodiment, a barb is provided at the center of the elastic slot. The barb on the barb allows the first side plate and the second side plate to be inserted into the elastic slot in the direction of the barb. The first side plate and the second side plate abut against the barb to prevent the first side plate and the second side plate from moving in the pull-out direction. The principle of the barb is basically the same as that of the barb strip, and the disassembly method is also basically the same.
[0013] In one embodiment, the support portion is provided with a support groove, the elastic clip is provided with a mounting pin, the mounting pin is provided with a slider, and the slider matches the support groove so that the slider can slide within the support groove.
[0014] In one embodiment, the support portion has a rectangular hole on the side near the elastic clip, and the size of the rectangular hole is larger than the size of the slider so that the slider can be inserted into the support groove through the rectangular hole.
[0015] In one embodiment, the elastic locking strip has an abutment area and a locking area. The locking area has a first fulcrum portion, a second fulcrum portion, a first protrusion portion, and a second protrusion portion. The first fulcrum portion is connected to the first protrusion portion, and the second fulcrum portion is connected to the second protrusion portion. The first fulcrum portion and the second fulcrum portion are respectively connected to both sides of the locking area. The first protrusion portion and the second protrusion portion are spaced a certain distance apart and located on both sides of the abutment area. The elastic locking groove is located between the first protrusion portion and the second protrusion portion. The first side plate has a first concave portion, and the second side plate has a second concave portion. When the first side plate and the second side plate are inserted into the elastic locking groove, the first side plate and the second side plate abut against the abutment area. The first protrusion engages with the first recess, and the second protrusion engages with the second recess. During disassembly, the distance between the first side plate and the second side plate is increased, so that the first end of the first side plate abuts against the first fulcrum and pushes the first fulcrum and the first protrusion to rotate, and the second end of the second side plate abuts against the second fulcrum and pushes the second fulcrum and the second protrusion to rotate. The distance between the first protrusion and the second protrusion is further increased, so that the first protrusion disengages from the first recess and the second protrusion disengages from the second recess. Thus, a thin card can be inserted between the first side plate and the second side plate to remove the first side plate and the second side plate, which is convenient and quick.
[0016] In one embodiment, a first elastic deformation area and a second elastic deformation area are provided between the abutment area and the snap-fit area. The first elastic deformation area and the second elastic deformation area extend a certain distance to both sides of the abutment area and then extend to the snap-fit area. The first elastic deformation area extends to the first fulcrum and connects, and the second elastic deformation area extends to the second fulcrum and connects. The elastic deformation area can reduce the deformation of other areas, making the snap-fit more stable.
[0017] In one embodiment, the elastic clip has an abutment area and a snap-fit area. The snap-fit area has a first concave portion and a second concave portion. The first concave portion and the second concave portion are spaced a certain distance apart and located on both sides of the abutment area. The elastic slot is located between the first concave portion and the second concave portion. The first side plate has a first protrusion and the second side plate has a second protrusion. When the first side plate and the second side plate are inserted into the elastic slot, the first concave portion snaps with the first protrusion and the second concave portion snaps with the second protrusion.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0036] Example 1:
[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a wall panel installation structure includes a first main wall panel 1, a first side panel 11, a second main wall panel 2, a second side panel 21, an elastic retaining strip 3, and a support part 4. The first main wall panel 1 is connected to the first side panel 11 at a certain angle, and the second main wall panel 2 is connected to the second side panel 21 at a certain angle. The elastic retaining strip 3 is provided with an elastic retaining groove 30, into which the first side panel 11 and the second side panel 21 can be inserted.

A third side panel 12 is provided on the other side of the first main wall panel 1 for matching and installation with other wall panels, and a fourth side panel 22 is provided on the other side of the second main wall panel 2 for matching and installation with other wall panels.
[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the first main wall panel 1 is perpendicular to the first side panel 11, and the second main wall panel 2 is perpendicular to the second side panel 21.
[0039] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in one embodiment, a first main wall panel 1 and a first side panel 11 are provided with a first faceplate 13, and the first main wall panel 1 and the first side panel 11 are connected through the first faceplate 13. The first main wall panel 1 is provided with a 45-degree angle at one end near the first side panel 11, and the first side panel 11 is provided with a 45-degree angle at one end near the first main wall panel 1, so that the first main wall panel 1 and the first side panel 11 are connected perpendicularly. A second main wall panel 2 and a second side panel 21 are provided with a second faceplate 23, and the second main wall panel 2 and the second side panel 21 are connected through the second faceplate 23. The second main wall panel 2 is provided with a 45-degree angle at one end near the second side panel 21, and the second side panel 21 is provided with a 45-degree angle at one end near the second main wall panel 2, so that the second main wall panel 2 and the second side panel 21 are connected perpendicularly.
[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, a barb strip 31 is provided at the center of the elastic slot 30. The barb strip 31 has barbs so that the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21 can be inserted into the elastic slot 30 in the direction of the barbs. The first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21 abut against the barbs to prevent the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21 from moving in the pull-out direction.
[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the support part 4 can use an existing keel and is provided with a support groove 40. The elastic clip 3 is provided with a mounting pin 32. The mounting pin 32 is provided with a slider 5. The slider 5 can be provided with a threaded hole to match the mounting pin 32. The slider 5 matches the support groove 40 so that the slider 5 can slide in the support groove 40.
[0042] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the support part 4 is provided with a rectangular hole 41 on the side near the elastic clip 3. The size of the rectangular hole 41 is larger than the size of the slider 5 so that the slider 5 can be inserted into the support groove 40 through the rectangular hole 41.
[0043] Example 2:
[0044] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, in one embodiment, the elastic retaining strip 3 has an abutment area 33 and a retaining area 34. The retaining area 34 has a first fulcrum portion 35, a second fulcrum portion 36, a first protrusion portion 37, and a second protrusion portion 38. The first fulcrum portion 35 is connected to the first protrusion portion 37, and the second fulcrum portion 36 is connected to the second protrusion portion 38. The first fulcrum portion 35 and the second fulcrum portion 36 are respectively connected to both sides of the retaining area 34. The first protrusion portion 37 and the second protrusion portion 38 are spaced apart by a certain distance. The elastic slot 30 is located between the first protrusion 37 and the second protrusion 38, and is positioned on both sides of the abutment area 33. The first side plate 11 has a first concave portion 25, and the second side plate 21 has a second concave portion 24. When the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21 are inserted into the elastic slot 30, they abut against the abutment area 33. The first protrusion 37 engages with the first concave portion 25, and the second protrusion 38 engages with the second concave portion 24. Figure 10 As shown, during disassembly, a thin card 6 or thin plate is inserted between the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21, widening the distance between the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21. This causes the first end 27 of the first side plate 11 to abut against the first fulcrum 35 and push the first fulcrum 35 and the first protrusion 37 to rotate. The second end 26 of the second side plate 21 abuts against the second fulcrum 36 and pushes the second fulcrum 36 and the second protrusion 38 to rotate. The distance between the first protrusion 37 and the second protrusion 38 is further widened, causing the first protrusion 37 to disengage from the first recess 25, and the second protrusion 38 to disengage from the second recess 24. Figure 11 As shown, the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21 can be pulled out from the elastic slot 30 without being blocked.
[0045] like Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, a first elastic deformation region 39 and a second elastic deformation region 29 are provided between the abutment region 33 and the locking region 34. The first elastic deformation region 39 and the second elastic deformation region 29 extend a certain distance to both sides of the abutment region 33 and then extend towards the locking region 34. The first elastic deformation region 39 extends to the first fulcrum 35 for connection, and the second elastic deformation region 29 extends to the second fulcrum 36 for connection. The elastic locking strip 3 can be made by stamping and bending thin steel plates, which reduces manufacturing costs.
[0046] Example 3:
[0047] like Figure 12As shown, in one embodiment, the elastic locking strip 3 has an abutment area 33 and a locking area 34. The locking area 34 has a first concave portion 25 and a second concave portion 24. The first concave portion 25 and the second concave portion 24 are spaced a certain distance apart and located on both sides of the abutment area 33. The elastic locking groove 30 is located between the first concave portion 25 and the second concave portion 24. The first side plate 11 has a first protrusion 37, and the second side plate 21 has a second protrusion 38. When the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21 are inserted into the elastic locking groove 30, the first concave portion 25 engages with the first protrusion 37, and the second concave portion 24 engages with the second protrusion 38. This embodiment is basically the same as the embodiment of embodiment 2, only the positions of the protrusion and the concave portion are changed, and the technical effect is exactly the same. The disassembly operation is the same as that of embodiment 2.
[0048] Example 4:
[0049] like Figure 13 As shown, in one embodiment, the elastic slot 30 has a barb 28 at its center. The barb 28 has barbs that allow the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21 to be inserted into the elastic slot 30 along the direction of the barbs. The first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21 abut against the barbs to prevent the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 21 from moving in the pull-out direction. The difference between the barb 28 and the barb strip 31 is that the barb strip 31 is set as an elongated strip with barbs located on both sides, while the barbs of the barb 28 are evenly distributed circumferentially.
