Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary tools for the repair of ancient buildings, specifically to a clamp for installing roof tiles of ancient buildings. Background Technology
[0002] In the roof repair and construction of traditional Chinese ancient buildings, the installation of tiles largely relies on manual labor, using wooden supports, temporary wooden tenons, or simple sliding tracks to lay and position each tile individually. Workers must climb onto the support frame, relying on experience and visual estimation or measurement to determine the tile's position, and then secure it by binding, nailing, or compacting with mortar. The tiles must be fixed sequentially from bottom to top, making the process relatively tedious. Furthermore, once fixed, the tile spacing cannot be adjusted later, and any errors in installation require significant rework, which is quite inconvenient.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a fixture for installing roof tiles of ancient buildings to meet the current needs of roof repair and construction of ancient buildings. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a fixture for installing roof tiles of ancient buildings. This fixture can achieve rapid sliding positioning, fine adjustment of tilt angle and temporary stable fixing of tiles through the adjustable cooperation between the base and the bottom beam without damaging the original roof rafter structure. It also supports rapid disassembly and reuse, which greatly improves the efficiency of roof tile repair and construction of ancient buildings.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above problems is: a roof tile installation clamp for ancient buildings, including a bottom beam and several mounting seats. The mounting seats are slidably connected to the top of the bottom beam and fixed in position by locking components. The mounting seats include a sliding seat and a swing frame. The bottom beam has a sliding groove adapted to the sliding connection of the sliding seat. The swing frame is damped and hinged to the mounting seat and has two fixing parts, with limit posts provided in the fixing parts.
[0006] Preferably, the slide block has two sets of mounting holes, the locking element is a bolt and nut, and the slide groove has a mushroom-shaped cross-section structure.
[0007] Preferably, the bottom beam is provided with scale lines, and there are two sets of scale lines, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the slide groove.
[0008] Preferably, it also includes a base, which is provided in two sets and is fixedly installed below both ends of the bottom beam.
[0009] Preferably, the base includes a base plate, the lower surface of which is provided with an arc-shaped profile that matches the roof rafters, and the base plate is fixed to the roof rafters by a wooden tenon structure.
[0010] Preferably, the base also includes a mounting head that is plugged into and adapted to the base plate, and the mounting head is connected and fixed to the base beam by fasteners.
[0011] Preferably, the fastener is a bolt, the mounting head has a threaded hole, the bottom beam has a through hole, and the bolt passes through the through hole and is screwed to the mounting head through the threaded hole for fixation.
[0012] Preferably, the bottom beam has several sets of through holes at equal intervals.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages and effects:
[0014] This invention features a sliding and lockable mounting base, coupled with a base beam equipped with grooves and scale lines, enabling construction workers to quickly and accurately adjust the tile position, achieving batch installation and significantly improving construction efficiency. The frame employs a damping hinge structure, allowing for fine adjustments to the tile's tilt angle without loosening, ensuring the laying angle remains consistent with the original tiles, thus improving repair quality and aesthetic uniformity. The mounting base's fixing part is equipped with limit posts and positioning holes, ensuring secure tile installation and easy disassembly. The base beam and base are connected by bolts, and the base's bottom uses an arc-shaped contour and mortise and tenon structure to match the roof rafters, enabling non-destructive installation of existing rafter structures and reducing damage to original components of ancient buildings. The multiple sets of through holes and multiple base supports on the base beam effectively enhance load-bearing capacity and overall stability, preventing sagging and deformation of the tiles after installation.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. The following embodiments are explanations of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0021] Example:
[0022] See Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, a roof tile installation clamp for ancient buildings is disclosed. It is specifically used for the precise positioning and fixing of tiles during the repair of ancient building roofs and the construction of imitation ancient buildings. Specifically, it includes a bottom beam 11 and several mounting seats 12. The mounting seats 12 are slidably connected to the bottom beam 11 and fixed in position by locking members 13. The mounting seats 12 include a sliding seat 14 and a swing frame 15. The bottom beam 11 has a sliding groove 16 that is adapted to slide the sliding seat 14. The swing frame 15 is damped and hinged to the mounting seat 12. The swing frame 15 is provided with two tile fixing parts 17.
[0023] Specifically, in this embodiment, the bottom beam 11 (made of aluminum alloy profile) is fixed to the roof base (which can replace the completely damaged rafters of the original building). First, the tiles and mounting bases 12 need to be assembled. The fixing part 17 of the mounting base 12 is provided with two sets of limiting posts. When the tiles are formed, slots that are compatible with the limiting posts are pre-cut. Positioning holes are provided between the two sets of limiting posts. The tiles can be fixed to the fixing part 17 of the mounting base 12 by screws, adhesives, etc. It should be noted that in actual use, two sets of clamps are required to fix the two ends of the tiles respectively. After assembly, the mounting bases 12 with tiles attached are slid into the grooves 16 of the bottom beam 11 one by one from top to bottom, and fixed one by one by locking parts 13. Compared with the traditional method of fixing the tiles one by one by stacking them layer by layer, this utility model can install tiles in batches, which is convenient and quick. Furthermore, the mounting base 12 in this embodiment includes two parts: a sliding base 14 and a swing frame 15. The sliding base 14 and the swing frame 15 are connected by a damping hinge, allowing construction workers to adjust the tilt angle of each set of tiles according to the requirements of the building foundation while locking the angle to ensure consistency with the tilt angle of the surrounding original tiles. In this embodiment, the fixing between the mounting base 12 and the bottom beam 11 can be unlocked via the locking member 13, allowing construction workers to adjust the fixing points of the tiles at any time and then tighten them uniformly after final confirmation. Compared to traditional fixing methods such as binding, nailing, or mortar compaction, which require rework due to installation deviations, this effectively reduces the effort required for rework by construction workers.
[0024] The slide block 14 has two sets of mounting holes 21, the locking element 13 uses bolts and nuts, and the slide groove 16 has a mushroom-shaped cross-section structure. Before assembling the mounting base 12 and the bottom beam 11, the bolts need to be inserted into the mounting holes 21 of the slide block 14 and fitted with nuts at their ends. During assembly, the nut of the bolt is slid into the slide groove 16. After confirming the fixing point of the slide block 14, the nut is tightened to lock the mounting base 12 and the bottom beam 11. In addition, since the building base surface is inclined, to prevent the mounting base 12 from sliding down the slide groove 16 of the bottom beam 11 when it is not locked, a cap 22 is welded to the lower end of the bottom beam 11 in this embodiment.
[0025] The bottom beam 11 is provided with scale lines 23, and two sets of scale lines 23 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the sliding groove 16. The scale lines 23 are formed by laser etching, and their scale range starts from 0 and increases in increments of 5mm. The maximum sliding distance (in this embodiment, the total length of the bottom beam 11) is marked at the end of the scale line 23. This allows construction workers to arrange the tiles at equal intervals according to the scale lines 23, eliminating the errors of previous reliance on experience and visual estimation, improving construction accuracy, and reducing rework problems.
[0026] When the roof rafters are in good condition, there is no need to replace them. The installation fixture also includes bases 24, with at least two sets of bases 24, each fixedly positioned below both ends of the base beam 11. The bases 24 are used for connecting and fixing the base beam 11 to the rafters. Each base includes a base plate 25, the lower surface of which has an arc-shaped profile adapted to the roof rafters. The base plate 25 is fixed to the roof rafters using mortise and tenon joints (or screws, adhesive, etc.). This structure allows for stable support of the base beam 11 without replacing the existing rafters, provided the rafter structure is in good condition. This avoids secondary damage to the ancient components, reduces construction costs, and minimizes disruption to the original appearance of the ancient building.
[0027] The base 24 also includes a mounting head 26 that is plugged into and adapted to the base plate 25. The mounting head 26 is connected and fixed to the base beam 11 by a fastener 27. The fastener 27 is a bolt. The mounting head 26 has a threaded hole 28. The base beam 11 has a through hole 29. The bolt passes through the through hole 29 and is screwed to the mounting head 26 through the threaded hole 28.
[0028] The bottom beam 11 has several sets of through holes 29 spaced at equal intervals. When the bottom beam 11 is long (greater than 1m), additional bases 24 can be added between the two ends of the bottom beam 11 to connect and fix it to the rafters to support the crossbeam and fix the tiles on it. By setting multiple sets of bases 24, the unsupported span of the bottom beam 11 can be shortened, the load-bearing capacity of the bottom beam 11 can be improved, thereby avoiding downward deformation under long-term stress and improving the overall installation stability of the tiles.
[0029] The above description in this specification is merely illustrative of the present invention. Those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to replace them, as long as they do not depart from the content of this specification or exceed the scope defined in the claims, all of which shall fall within the protection scope of this invention.
