Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of bracket connectors, and specifically relates to a bracket assembly. Background Technology
[0002] Prefabricated support systems are systems where standardized channel steel and various connectors are manufactured in a factory and then assembled on-site by construction personnel. This support system can be used to support various pipes and pipelines and is of great significance in indoor building installations.
[0003] Typically, to accommodate various cables above a building, scaffolding needs to be hoisted up. However, due to the usually large size of these scaffolding units, traditional hoisting methods are often very difficult to operate. For example, if the scaffolding unit is not aligned with the installation location, adjusting its position is extremely difficult and places very high demands on the workers' skills.
[0004] For example, patent application CN202421127272.3 discloses a bracket for fixing electromechanical pipelines during the transportation of steel structure modules. Such brackets for fixing pipelines usually have a multi-layer structure, and even if mechanical equipment is used for hoisting, the hoisting difficulty is very high.
[0005] Fall arrestor brackets are support systems made by directly producing prefabricated channel steel and various connectors in a factory, and then having construction personnel assemble them on site. They can be used to support various pipes and pipelines and are of great significance in indoor building installations.
[0006] Traditional connectors are typically saddle-shaped or U-shaped. During on-site assembly, two saddle-shaped connectors must be installed at corresponding positions on the column members of the building structure, such as the columns (e.g., channel steel) in a support system. Furthermore, after the connector is installed on the column member, there is no point of leverage on the back of the column member. Therefore, the connector can only be connected to the column member laterally, i.e., fasteners such as bolts are installed between the two vertical connecting plates of the connector to securely connect the column and the connector. See [link to documentation]. Figure 28 and Figure 29 .
[0007] This assembly method results in uneven stress distribution, relying primarily on the shear force of bolts and other fasteners, which poses a serious safety hazard: for example, excessive stress can cause damage or detachment of the connectors, severely endangering safety. To avoid this, multiple traditional fall arrestor saddle connectors must be added, but this not only increases costs but also raises the difficulty and complexity of on-site assembly.
[0008] In view of this, there is an urgent need for a bracket assembly that can be easily assembled on site. Utility Model Content
[0009] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a support assembly that partially solves or alleviates the problem of installing anti-fall saddle connectors in the prior art, making the installation simpler and more convenient.
[0010] To solve the aforementioned technical problems, the present invention specifically adopts the following technical solution:
[0011] A support assembly, characterized in that it comprises: a Mimep module and a fall arrestor saddle, wherein,
[0012] The Mimep module includes at least two sets of two-dimensional supports, and the at least two sets of two-dimensional supports are connected by connecting supports; the two-dimensional supports include two first supports arranged in parallel, and a second support connected between the two first supports.
[0013] The anti-fall saddle includes a second horizontal connecting plate, a first vertical connecting plate, a second vertical connecting plate, and a third horizontal connecting plate connected in sequence. The first vertical connecting plate, the second vertical connecting plate, and the first horizontal connecting plate together form an installation space for mounting a connecting bracket. Each of the first, second, or third horizontal connecting plates has a through hole. The saddle also includes multiple connecting fasteners for fixing the connecting bracket to the first or second bracket. Each connecting fastener includes a fastener, an elastic element, a fixing block, and a limiting bracket. The fixing block has a threaded hole matching the fastener, and its upper surface has teeth parallel to the teeth on the inner folded edge of the first bracket for meshing. The fastener has two sets of teeth, and the two sets of teeth are located on both sides of the threaded hole. The limiting bracket includes a bracket body fixed to the first horizontal connecting plate, the second horizontal connecting plate, or the third horizontal connecting plate. The bracket body is provided with mounting holes for the fastener to move up and down. The two ends of the two opposite sides of the bracket body along the length direction extend along their height direction to form limiting protrusions. A limiting groove is formed between the two limiting protrusions on the same side. The two diagonal limiting protrusions extend along the width direction of the bracket body to form deformable bending portions. A gap is left between the bending portions and the adjacent limiting protrusions on the opposite side. The bracket body, the limiting protrusions, and the bending portions cooperate to form a clamping structure for clamping the fixing block.
[0014] When the fixing block is inserted into the clamping structure, the bracket body, the limiting protrusion, and the bending part cooperate to clamp the fixing block.
[0015] When the elastic element is fitted onto the fastener and the fastener is passed through the through hole and the mounting hole to be threadedly connected to the fixing block, the two ends of the elastic element abut against the head of the fastener and the limiting bracket respectively, so that the anti-fall saddle and the connecting fastener are in a pre-assembled state.
[0016] When the pre-assembled anti-fall saddle and the connecting fastener are respectively installed on the first horizontal connecting plate, the second horizontal connecting plate, and the third horizontal connecting plate, the fixing block clamped in the clamping structure is located between the two inner folded edges of the connecting bracket or the first bracket or the second bracket.
[0017] When the fastener is pressed along its height direction, the fastener causes the fixing block to move along its height direction, causing the bent part to deform under the squeezing action of the fixing block, and driving the fixing block to disengage from the gap and rotate into the limiting groove, so that the two sets of teeth on the upper surface of the fixing block respectively engage with the teeth on the two inner folded edges of the connecting bracket, the first bracket, or the second bracket.
[0018] Furthermore, the fixing block is parallelogram-shaped, and the angle between the arrangement direction of each set of teeth and the corresponding side edge of the fixing block is 5°-25°.
[0019] Furthermore, the limiting bracket is in the shape of a hollow cuboid.
[0020] Furthermore, two grooves are arranged parallel to each other on the upper surface of the fixing block, each set of teeth is arranged in the groove, and each set of teeth includes two rows of teeth arranged in an intersecting manner.
[0021] Furthermore, the bracket body includes a first body that is fitted and fixed to the first horizontal connecting plate, the second horizontal connecting plate, or the third horizontal connecting plate, and two second bodies that extend from both sides of the first body along the height direction of the limiting bracket to form oppositely arranged bodies; the two ends of the second bodies extend along the extension direction of the second bodies to form the limiting protrusions; wherein, the limiting protrusions on the two diagonals extend along the direction close to the opposite limiting protrusion to form mutually parallel and deformable bent portions.
[0022] Furthermore, the bent portion is rectangular in shape, and the width of the bent portion is the same as the width of the limiting protrusion. A gap is left between the free end of the bent portion and the opposite limiting protrusion, allowing the fixing block to pass through.
[0023] Furthermore, the width of the fixing block is the same as the width between the two limiting protrusions arranged on the same side along the length direction of the limiting bracket; and / or, the height and width of the fixing block are consistent with the internal height and width of the limiting bracket, respectively.
[0024] Furthermore, gaskets are provided at the through holes of the first horizontal connecting plate, the second horizontal connecting plate, and the third horizontal connecting plate.
[0025] Furthermore, the bent portion is a flexible metal spring.
[0026] Furthermore, the first horizontal connecting plate, the first vertical connecting plate, the second horizontal connecting plate, the second vertical connecting plate, and the third horizontal connecting plate are manufactured using an integral molding process to form the anti-fall saddle; and / or, the anti-fall saddle is made of rigid material; and / or, the surface of the anti-fall saddle is provided with an anti-oxidation layer.
[0027] Beneficial effects:
[0028] The bracket assembly of this utility model allows for the insertion of connecting fasteners along the height direction of the anti-fall saddle, thus providing a new fixing direction and facilitating convenient and quick on-site assembly.
[0029] Specifically, firstly, the fixing block is fixed into the limiting bracket, and the fall arrestor saddle is pre-installed. When in use, the pre-installed fall arrestor saddle is installed onto other components. By pressing the fastener radially, the fastener drives the fixing block to move downward. The bent part deforms under the squeezing action of the fixing block, making the gap between the bent part and the limiting protrusion larger. The fixing block disengages from the limiting bracket through the two gaps set opposite to each other. At the same time, under the combined action of the fastener and the limiting bracket, the fixing block automatically rotates under the drive of the elastic bent part during the downward movement and enters the limiting groove for fixation. Meanwhile, the two sets of teeth on the fixing block mesh with the teeth on the two inner folded edges of the first bracket or the second bracket, thereby achieving fixation between the first bracket and the second bracket. The operation is simple, convenient and quick.
[0030] This solution makes the installation of the anti-fall saddle connector more convenient and quick by setting up a one-button automatic steering mechanism. Attached Figure Description

[0079] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0080] In this document, suffixes such as "module," "part," or "unit" used to denote elements are used only for the purpose of illustrative purposes and have no specific meaning in themselves. Therefore, "module," "part," or "unit" may be used interchangeably.
[0081] In this document, the terms "upper," "lower," "inner," "outer," "front," "rear," "one end," and "the other end," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of describing the present invention and for simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0082] In this document, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "equipped with," "connected," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.
[0083] In this document, "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the listed related items.
[0084] In this article, "multiple" means two or more, that is, it includes two, three, four, five, etc.
[0085] As used in this specification, the term "about" typically means + / -5% of the value, more typically + / -4%, more typically + / -3%, more typically + / -2%, even more typically + / -1%, and even more typically + / -0.5%.
[0086] In this specification, certain embodiments may be disclosed in a range-bound format. It should be understood that this "range-bound" description is merely for convenience and brevity and should not be construed as a rigid limitation on the disclosed range. Therefore, the description of a range should be considered as having specifically disclosed all possible subranges and the individual numerical values within those ranges. For example, a description of the range 1-6 should be considered as having specifically disclosed subranges such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6, etc., and the individual numbers within those ranges, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. This rule applies regardless of the breadth of the range.
[0087] The horizontal direction typically refers to a direction parallel or approximately parallel to the plane to be installed. The guy wire has a horizontal degree of freedom of movement, which can be understood as the ability to reciprocate along a straight line on a horizontal plane (or a horizontal plane approximately parallel to its cross-section) where its cross-section is located. The guy wire also has a horizontal degree of freedom of rotation, which can be understood as the ability to rotate on a horizontal plane (or a horizontal plane approximately parallel to its cross-section).
[0088] Mimep modules (also known as DFMA modules, 3D modules, or simply modules): In this article, a Mimep module refers to a support assembly (or frame) composed of multiple supports (such as columns, crossarms, U-shaped steel, C-shaped channel steel, etc.), which can be used to support or fix pipe-like objects. For example, support assemblies can be used to support and fix pipes, air ducts, cables, and other equipment. Supports are widely used in building water supply and drainage engineering, building electrical engineering, and other fields, especially playing an important role in the fixing and load-bearing of pipelines in basements, pipe corridors, and other projects.
[0089] In this article, "multi-segment pull wire" refers to a linear connector used to connect Mimep modules to the mounting surface. One end of the wire can be installed / fixed on the mounting surface, and the other end can be directly connected to the Mimep module, or connected to the Mimep module through similar linear connectors or other connectors. Furthermore, it adopts a multi-segment structure. For example, a two-segment or three-segment design can be used (if it is a three-segment design, in addition to the first and second segments mentioned above, it also includes a third segment, which can also be called the first pull wire, with one end connected to the second segment and the other end connected to the support module). The applicant notes that, in order to improve on-site construction efficiency, Mimep modules can usually be pre-assembled in the factory and directly hoisted on the construction site. However, in large-scale construction scenarios, the required Mimep modules are very large in size and weight, making assembly extremely difficult. Even with modern machinery, reliable installation is challenging.
[0090] Definition of the noun:
[0091] Fall protection saddle: In this article, a fall protection saddle refers to a component that is saddle-shaped or has a Z-shaped cross-section, which can be adapted to the shape of column components in building structures, such as the shape of the first support (e.g., channel steel, column) in a support module.
[0092] Column members: In this article, column members refer to the columns used to support the building structure, such as the channel steel columns in the fall arrestor or the supporting columns in the wall.
[0093] Example 1:
[0094] For this, see Figures 1-20 As shown, this application proposes a swing-type installation scheme based on multi-segment guidance to simplify the hoisting difficulty of Mimep modules.
[0095] First, this invention provides a method for installing a Mimep module, including the following steps:
[0096] S101 provides a Mimep module; see [link / reference] Figure 1 As shown, the Mimep module includes: at least two sets of two-dimensional supports 1, and the at least two sets of two-dimensional supports 1 are connected by connecting supports 2; wherein, the two-dimensional supports include: at least two first supports 11 arranged opposite to each other, and the at least two first supports 11 are connected by second supports 12, and a through channel is formed in the first support 11.
[0097] Understandably, the components of the Mimep module (such as the type and quantity of brackets) can be adaptively selected and combined according to on-site construction needs.
[0098] For example, in some embodiments, the Mimep module may include only a set of two-dimensional supports 1. For example, in some embodiments, the connecting support 2 may be a crossbeam support. For example, in some embodiments, the first support may be a column.
[0099] S102, the first pull wire 3 passes through the through channel, and the first end of the first pull wire 3 protrudes outward along the top of the through channel and is connected to the first end of the second pull wire 4, while the second end of the second pull wire 4 is fixed to the surface to be installed (for example, the surface to be installed can be a ceiling or other building wall, etc.).
[0100] Furthermore, the second end of the first pull wire 3 can extend outward from the bottom of the through channel.
[0101] In some embodiments, the first pull wire and the second pull wire are connected by a connecting part 7.
[0102] Preferably, see Figure 9 As shown, the second pull wire includes: a first segment 41 and a second segment 42 connected by a swing module 5. The swing module 5 includes: a first connecting end 51, which is provided with a fixing hole for fixing the first segment 41; and a second connecting end 52 connected to the first connecting end 51, which is provided with a swing groove 521. One end of the second segment 42 passes through the swing groove 521 and is fixed to the inner side of the swing groove 521 by a limiting member 522.
[0103] S103, drive the Mimep module to move upward along the first pull line.
[0104] For example, in some embodiments, for large Mimep modules, automated equipment can be used to lift the Mimep module upwards. This automated equipment could be a forklift; specifically, a forklift can be placed at each end of the Mimep module or in the middle of the module to lift it.
[0105] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, a crane can be used to move the Mimep module upwards.
[0106] Preferably, in some embodiments, the swing module 5 can be used to adjust the movement direction of the Mimep module, wherein when the second segment 42 reciprocates within the swing groove 521, the Mimep module can offset along the corresponding movement direction;
[0107] S104, when the Mimep module moves to the second pull line, the second pull line and the first pull line are disconnected (e.g., the connecting part 7 is removed).
[0108] S105, the bottom of the through channel is sealed, and one end of the second pull wire passing through the top of the through channel is locked with a locking member to fix the Mimep module to the surface to be installed via the second pull wire.
[0109] For example, such as Figure 13 As shown, in some embodiments, the locking element may be a bolt 9, and a washer 6 may be provided between the bolt 9 and the module.
[0110] It is worth noting that the Mimep module hoisting method based on multi-segment wires used in this invention can effectively reduce on-site construction costs in economically developed regions.
[0111] Typically, labor costs are very high in economically developed countries or regions. Currently, in order to reduce on-site construction costs, existing technologies have proposed a modular application approach, such as pre-assembling the support structure in the factory and then transporting the assembled modules to the site for overall installation. This reduces the assembly workload of on-site construction personnel and lowers labor costs.
[0112] However, the applicant noted that for large-scale construction projects, such as large tunnels, airports, subways, and large parking lots, the required support modules are also extremely large. Traditional hoisting methods, even with existing automated equipment like forklifts, struggle to successfully lift these large and heavy modules. In other words, applying traditional support systems to large-scale construction scenarios presents significant challenges.
[0113] In this regard, the present invention preferably provides a multi-segment guy wire hoisting scheme based on micro-swing adjustment. The multi-segment guy wires work together to guide the module in the height direction, ensuring that the module can be roughly aligned with the installation point on the horizontal plane. On the other hand, the micro-swing achieved by the swing module enables the module to achieve precise alignment between the installation point (or adjacent modules) through the micro-movement of the guy wires.
[0114] In other words, the multi-segment guy wire hoisting scheme with micro-swing adjustment proposed in this embodiment can be quickly hoisted upwards by a stacker truck, and the micro-swing adjustment function based on the guy wire can reduce the requirements for the construction experience of the construction personnel. For example, even if the stacker truck is not aligned during the lifting process, it can be finely adjusted with the help of the swing module.
[0115] Of course, in some other construction sites where the construction difficulty is relatively low, multiple-segment guy wires can be used for direct hoisting without the need for a swing module.
[0116] Further, see Figures 1-10As shown, the present invention also provides a Mimep modular system (or modular component) capable of being used for multi-segment segmented traction and hoisting, comprising:
[0117] The Mimep module includes at least one set of two-dimensional supports 1, as described in some embodiments. Figure 7 As shown.
[0118] Alternatively, the Mimep module includes: at least two sets of two-dimensional supports 1, and the at least two sets of two-dimensional supports 1 are connected by connecting supports 2; wherein, the two-dimensional supports include: at least two first supports 11 arranged opposite to each other, and the at least two first supports 11 are connected by second supports 12, and a through channel is formed in the first support 11.
[0119] A first pull wire 3 is used to pass through the through-channel and connect to the first end of a second pull wire 4, while the second end of the second pull wire 4 is used to be fixed to the surface to be installed.
[0120] Preferably, see Figures 9-12 As shown, the Mimep module system further includes: a swing module 5. Correspondingly, the second pull cable includes: a first segment 41 and a second segment 42 connected by the swing module 5. The swing module 5 includes: a first connecting end 51, which is provided with a fixing hole for fixing the first segment 41; and a second connecting end 52 connected to the first connecting end 51, which is provided with a swing groove 521. One end of the second segment 42 passes through the swing groove 521 and is fixed to the inner side of the swing groove 521 by a third limiting member 522.
[0121] When the second segment 42 reciprocates within the swing groove 521, the Mimep module can offset along the corresponding movement direction.
[0122] It should be noted that traditional modular installation requires highly experienced construction workers, who must hold the corresponding construction qualifications to operate the equipment, resulting in very high construction costs. However, the guy-wire-based hoisting system provided by this invention can significantly reduce on-site construction difficulty, thereby reducing the experience requirements for construction workers and thus significantly reducing construction costs.
[0123] Furthermore, the guy wire hoisting system provided by this invention is particularly suitable for application in construction sites such as airports and subways.
[0124] In some embodiments, the first segment 41 is fixedly connected to the first connecting end 52.
[0125] Furthermore, in some embodiments, it further includes at least one first limiting member 511 and at least one second limiting member 512 disposed on the first segment 41, wherein when the first segment 41 passes through the fixing hole, the first limiting member and the second limiting member are respectively located at both ends of the fixing hole to fix the first segment.
[0126] The fixed connection refers to the first limiting member and the second limiting member being tightly fitted to both ends of the fixing hole, so that the first segment and the fixing hole cannot rotate relative to each other.
[0127] Alternatively, in some embodiments, the first segment is configured to rotate relative to the fixing hole. For example, when two adjacent modules need to be mated, but the axial directions of the two modules are slightly different, one can try to align the two modules as quickly as possible by appropriately rotating the pull wire.
[0128] It's important to note that in large construction sites, such as those for large tunnels, airports, or subways, multiple two-dimensional supports can be pre-assembled into large-scale Mimep modules to improve construction efficiency. However, larger Mimep modules (referred to as modules) also present greater construction challenges. For example, in tunnels, large modules need to be installed on the tunnel roof and fixed at pre-defined points.
[0129] At this point, the tunnel working space is relatively complex, with dim lighting, and the equipment operating space is also relatively limited. Precisely installing large modules at their corresponding locations requires a high level of experience from the construction personnel. Furthermore, due to the length of the tunnel, multiple modules need to be deployed along the route, ensuring smooth connection between them.
[0130] To address this complex construction environment, workers can employ a step-by-step alignment method for installation. First, mechanical equipment (such as a stacker truck) is used to initially align the modules with the designated points. Then, the mechanical equipment is used to lift the modules above the tunnel. Second, if there is a certain deviation in height or horizontal direction between two adjacent modules, a swinging mechanism can be used to adjust the height or horizontal position of at least one module to ensure alignment.
[0131] In other words, the multi-segment guyed hoisting scheme with slight sway adjustment provided in this invention facilitates step-by-step alignment operations for construction workers, thereby reducing the difficulty of operating the machinery. As a result, even novice construction workers can quickly learn and master the installation scheme. Therefore, this multi-segment guyed hoisting scheme with slight sway adjustment can significantly reduce the labor costs associated with construction work.
[0132] Preferably, in some embodiments, in order to improve the hoisting efficiency of large modules, this embodiment can also provide a configuration scheme with different degrees of freedom, such as setting swing modules with different degrees of freedom in the edge and middle areas of the module. The pull wire moves back and forth relative to the swing groove, which can be regarded as having a degree of freedom of movement in the horizontal direction; the pull wire rotates relative to the fixing hole, which can be regarded as having a degree of freedom of rotation; and the length of the pull wire can also be adjusted by the swing module, such as adjusting the length of the pull wire passing through the fixing hole or the swing groove to enlarge or reduce the length of the pull wire, which can be regarded as having a degree of freedom of movement in the height direction.
[0133] To distinguish between the oscillating module where the pull wire cannot rotate relative to the oscillating module and the oscillating module where the pull wire can rotate relative to the oscillating module, we will use the first oscillating module and the second oscillating module for differentiation and description respectively:
[0134] For example, a first swing module is set on at least one second pull line corresponding to a two-dimensional support (such as a two-dimensional support located in the middle of the module) at a non-edge location of the module, wherein the first swing module has one degree of freedom of movement in the horizontal direction, but preferably no degree of freedom of rotation.
[0135] A second swing module is provided on at least one second pull line corresponding to a two-dimensional support (such as two-dimensional supports at both ends of the module) at the edge of the module; the second swing module has one degree of freedom of movement in the horizontal direction and one degree of freedom of rotation.
[0136] In other words, the difference between the first and second swing modules in this embodiment is that the second pull line (such as its first or second segment) in the first swing module can be adjusted linearly in the horizontal direction, while the second pull line in the second swing module can be adjusted linearly and rotated in the horizontal direction.
[0137] Linear adjustment refers to the ability of the second pull wire (such as the second segment) to reciprocate along the axial direction of the swing groove 521. Rotational adjustment refers to the ability of the second pull wire to rotate relative to the swing module, such as the first segment rotating relative to the fixed hole.
[0138] Furthermore, in some embodiments, see Figure 10 As shown, the first limiting member 511 includes:
[0139] The third nut 5111 is sleeved on the side of the first section 41 that passes through the fixing hole;
[0140] The fourth nut 5112 is sleeved on the first segment 41 and is positioned between the third nut and the fixing hole.
[0141] Preferably, the second pull line is provided with an external thread, and the nut is provided with an internal thread, so that it can be sleeved on the second pull line by cooperating with the external thread.
[0142] Taking the first swing module as an example, during the module hoisting process, the first and second limiting members are in close contact with the upper and lower surfaces of the first connecting end. That is, when the second pull wire (such as the first segment) needs to rotate relative to the fixing hole, it needs to overcome a significant first resistance. However, for the second swing module, during the module hoisting process, the first and second limiting members do not need to be in close contact with the upper and lower surfaces of the first connecting end (e.g., they only need to be in contact with each other, or there may be a certain gap). In this case, when the second pull wire needs to rotate relative to the fixing hole, it needs to overcome a smaller second resistance, which is less than the first resistance.
[0143] Understandably, the specific values of the first and second resistances can be selected based on specifications such as the module's weight. For example, when the module sways due to inertia or impact during lifting, it may tend to rotate relative to the fixed hole. By setting the second resistance, the rotational tendency between the second pull wire and the fixed hole can be limited or mitigated (that is, the surfaces of the first and second limiting members and the first connecting end are tightly abutted, and the friction generated between the contact surfaces can limit the relative rotation between them to a certain extent). Conversely, when the first and second limiting members are not tightly abutted against the first connecting end, under a certain degree of external force (such as manual adjustment of the module's direction by construction personnel or with the help of mechanical equipment), the second pull wire can also rotate under the corresponding external force, thereby compensating for the horizontal deviation between the module and the docking point (or adjacent modules) through rotational freedom.
[0144] In this embodiment, the functions of the swing modules with multiple second pull lines on the module are differentiated. For example, only the swing modules at the edge are reserved with a certain degree of rotational adjustment freedom. This ensures that the module has a certain degree of freedom during hoisting, enabling precise docking between installation points and adjacent modules, while avoiding excessive freedom that would increase the difficulty of hoisting large modules.
[0145] Furthermore, in some embodiments, when the swing module has rotational degrees of freedom, the third nut 5111 and the fourth nut 5112 are preferably spaced apart on the second pull line, such that the third and fourth nuts are spaced apart by at least two turns of thread width on the second pull line. This spaced arrangement can alleviate the problem of nuts loosening during rotation.
[0146] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the third limiting member includes:
[0147] The first nut 5221 is fitted onto the second segment, such as at the top of the second segment;
[0148] The second nut 5222 is located between the first nut and the swing groove 521.
[0149] Preferably, for a swing module with degrees of freedom of movement and rotation, degrees of freedom of movement and rotation are respectively set at the bottom and top of the swing module, which ensures that each degree of freedom has relatively independent adjustment capability, further reducing the difficulty of adjustment and improving the connection stability between the swing module and the first segment during the adjustment process.
[0150] In some embodiments, it also includes:
[0151] Gasket 6, which is sleeved on the second pull wire 4.
[0152] In some embodiments, a shim is disposed between the swing module 5 and the Mimep module.
[0153] For example, in some embodiments, a nut is also provided above the gasket. After the first and second pull cables are disconnected, the second pull cable can be secured to the Mimep module by tightening the nut.
[0154] For example, in some embodiments, after the first and second pull wires are disconnected, the top and bottom openings of the through channel inside the Mimep module can be sealed and tightened with nuts to fix the Mimep module to the second pull wire.
[0155] It should be noted that after the module is hoisted to the appropriate height using the guy wire, the second guy wire and the module need to be securely connected, that is, the second guy wire needs to be locked at both ends of the through-channel. For example, at the bottom of the through-channel, bolts can be passed through the second guy wire, and tightening the bolts will lock the second guy wire at the bottom. Furthermore, shims can be placed between the bolts and the bottom of the through-channel to enhance the locking effect.
[0156] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, locking member 8 can be used to quickly lock the second pull wire to the module.
[0157] For example, see Figure 16As shown, the locking component 8 includes a first locking component 81 and a second locking component 82. The first locking component 81 has a first groove 811, and the second locking component 82 has a second groove 821. When the first locking component and the second locking component are fitted together, the first groove and the second groove are connected to form a locking groove, which allows a second pull cable to pass through. Specifically, the first locking component has at least one first through hole (e.g., one through hole on each side of the first groove), and the second locking component has at least one second through hole. When the first locking component and the second locking component are fitted together, and the second pull cable passes through the locking groove, a fastener (e.g., a bolt or screw) is passed through the through hole and tightened to achieve the locking effect.
[0158] The locking element (such as a first or second locking element) includes a first bonding plate (with a groove and a through hole respectively), and a second bonding plate extending outward along the side edge of the first bonding plate (such as the surfaces of the first and second bonding plates being perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to each other), the second bonding plate being used to abut against the surface of the first bracket. Furthermore, the second bonding plate of the locking element may also have bolt holes for further securing the locking element to the module with bolts.
[0159] Preferably, the diameter of the locking groove is smaller than the diameter of the second pull wire, thereby locking the second pull wire.
[0160] It should be noted that the locking component 8 can be directly tightened laterally, and this indirect locking via lateral tightening of the locking component 8 results in higher locking efficiency. In other words, the locking component can improve the hoisting efficiency of the module and further reduce the installation difficulty of large modules.
[0161] In some embodiments, including:
[0162] A lifting component is provided on the second bracket 12 located at the top of the two-dimensional bracket 1. The lifting component can be connected to the connector (such as a hook) on the surface to be installed to assist in fixing / installing the Mimep module to the surface (such as the top wall of a house).
[0163] In some embodiments, the system further includes a sealing element for sealing the bottom of the through-channel. For example, in some embodiments, bolts or other accessories can be used to assist in sealing.
[0164] In some embodiments, the length of the second pull wire is greater than the length of the through channel.
[0165] In some embodiments, the diameter of the second pull wire is larger than the diameter of the first pull wire.
[0166] In some embodiments, the first and second pull wires can be fixedly connected by a connecting part. For example, the connection between the first and second pull wires can be provided with an external thread structure, and the first and second pull wires can be connected by sharing a cylindrical connecting part with an internal thread structure inside, thereby achieving connection through the internal and external engagement of the threads. Furthermore, when it is necessary to disconnect the first and second pull wires, the connecting part can be loosened.
[0167] For example, see Figure 17 , Figure 18 As shown, the connecting part 7 includes: a first connecting part 71, and a second connecting part 72 disposed at at least one end of the first connecting part 71 (such as the first connecting part 71 having a second connecting part at both ends), wherein the inner surface of the second connecting part 72 (or the second connecting part and the first connecting part) is provided with an internal thread for engaging with the external thread of the pull wire.
[0168] Furthermore, the width of the second connecting portion 72 gradually decreases in the direction away from the first connecting portion 71, that is, the end of the connecting portion is tapered. The tapered shape in this embodiment can play a certain guiding role during hoisting.
[0169] It should be noted that the first bracket 11 needs to be assembled with several other brackets. Therefore, multiple fasteners will be installed through the first bracket axially, and multiple screws, bolts, and other fasteners will be inserted into the through-channel. In this embodiment, the end of the connecting part 7 can play a certain guiding role. For example, when the pull cable moves in the through-channel, the tapered end can more easily pass through the space where the screws and bolts are intersecting, reducing the risk of the pull cable getting stuck in the through-channel.
[0170] Preferably, in this embodiment, the swing module 5 and the connecting part 7 are used to guide the longitudinal and lateral movement, thereby enabling the rapid hoisting of the module. This dual guidance in both the longitudinal and lateral directions facilitates the smooth upward movement of the module with the assistance of a forklift, and also helps to achieve precise alignment of large modules during installation.
[0171] Example 2:
[0172] like Figures 21-26 As shown, the present invention proposes a support assembly, including: a Mimep module and an L-shaped connector 12a, wherein the Mimep module includes at least two sets of two-dimensional supports, and the at least two sets of two-dimensional supports are connected by a connecting bracket; the two-dimensional supports include two first supports arranged in parallel, and a second support connected between the two first supports, see [reference needed]. Figure 2 .
[0173] The L-shaped connector 12a includes a first vertical contact plate 121 and a second horizontal contact plate 122, and through holes are respectively provided on the first vertical contact plate 121 and the second horizontal contact plate 122. (See attached image) Figure 21 .
[0174] like Figures 23-27 As shown, the L-shaped connector 12a also includes a plurality of connecting fasteners 105 for fixing the first bracket and the second bracket.
[0175] See Figure 23 and Figure 24 The connecting fastener 105 includes a fastener 1051, an elastic element 1052, a fixing block 1054, and a limiting bracket 1053. The fixing block 1054 is provided with a threaded hole that matches the fastener 1051, and the upper surface of the fixing block 1054 is provided with two sets of teeth 10541 parallel to each other for meshing with the teeth on the inner folded edge of the first bracket, and the two sets of teeth 10541 are respectively located on both sides of the threaded hole. The limiting bracket 1053 includes a bracket body fixed to the first vertical contact plate 121 or the second horizontal connecting plate 122, and the bracket body is provided with a mechanism for the fastener 1051 to move up and down. The bracket body has a movable mounting hole 10533. The two ends of the two opposite sides arranged along the length direction of the bracket body extend along the height direction to form limiting protrusions 10534. A limiting groove 10536 is formed between the two limiting protrusions 10534 on the same side. The two diagonal limiting protrusions 10534 extend along the width direction of the bracket body to form deformable bending portions 10535. A gap is left between the bending portions 10535 and the adjacent limiting protrusions 10534 on the opposite side. The bracket body, the limiting protrusions 10534 and the bending portions 10535 cooperate to form a clamping structure for clamping the fixing block.
[0176] When the fixing block 1054 is inserted into the clamping structure, the bracket body, the limiting protrusion 10534 and the bending part 10535 cooperate to clamp the fixing block.
[0177] Preferably, see Figure 22 The following is a schematic diagram of the assembly of the L-shaped connector 12a with the first and second brackets:
[0178] When the elastic element 1052 is sleeved on the fastener 1051, and the fastener 1051 is passed through the through hole of the first vertical contact plate 121 or the second horizontal contact plate 122 and the mounting hole 10533, so that it is threadedly connected to the fixing block 1054, the two ends of the elastic element 1052 abut against the head of the fastener 1051 and the limiting bracket 1053 respectively, so that the L-shaped connector 12a is in a pre-assembled state.
[0179] When the L-shaped connector 12a in its pre-assembled state is installed at the joint of the first bracket and the second bracket, the two fixing blocks 1054 on the L-shaped connector 12a, which are clamped in the clamping structure, are respectively located between the two inner folded edges of the second bracket or the first bracket.
[0180] When the fastener 1051 is pressed along its height direction, the fastener 1051 causes the fixing block 1054 to move along its height direction, causing the bent portion 10535 to deform under the squeezing action of the fixing block 1054, and driving the fixing block 1054 to disengage from the gap and rotate into the limiting groove 10536, so that the two rows of teeth 10541 on the upper surface of the fixing block 1054 respectively engage with the teeth on the two inner folded edges of the second bracket or the first bracket.
[0181] After the various components of the L-shaped connector 12a of the bracket of the present invention are assembled, they are basically fixed to form a pre-assembled L-shaped connector 12a under the pre-tightening action of the elastic member 1052. Then, the L-shaped connector 12a is integrally aligned with the vertical docking point of the first bracket and the second bracket. Then, simply press the fastener 1051 along the height direction of the fastener 1051. The fastener 1051 will automatically rotate under the push of the elastic bending part 10535 and enter the limiting groove 10536 for fixation. At the same time, the two sets of teeth 10541 on the fixing block 1054 engage with the teeth on the two inner folded edges of the first bracket or the second bracket, thereby realizing the fixation between the first bracket and the second bracket. The operation is simple, convenient and quick.
[0182] In some embodiments, the fixing block 1054 is a parallelogram, and the angle between the arrangement direction of each set of teeth 10541 and the corresponding side edge (i.e., the hypotenuse) of the fixing block 1054 is 5°-25°.
[0183] Furthermore, in order to facilitate easier rotation of the fixing block 1054, the fixing block 1054 is set as a parallelogram, and in the pre-installed state, the two obtuse angles of the parallelogram correspond to the gap between the bent part 10535 and the limiting protrusion 10534, and the two sets of teeth 10541 on the fixing block 1054 form an angle with the two sides of the parallelogram, so that after rotation, it is more conducive to the teeth 10541 engaging with the teeth on the inner folded edge of the first bracket or the second bracket.
[0184] In some embodiments, the limiting bracket 1053 is generally in the shape of a hollow cuboid.
[0185] In some embodiments, two grooves are arranged parallel to each other on the upper surface of the fixing block 1054, each set of teeth 10541 is disposed in the groove, and each set of teeth 10541 includes two rows of teeth arranged in an intersecting manner. See [link to previous document]. Figure 27 .
[0186] In some embodiments, the support body includes a first body 10531 that is fitted and fixed to the first support or the second support, and two second bodies 10532 that extend from both sides of the first body 10531 along the height direction of the limiting support 1053 and are arranged opposite to each other; the two ends of the second bodies 10532 extend along the extension direction of the second bodies 10532 to form the limiting protrusions 10534; wherein the two diagonal limiting protrusions 10534 extend in a direction close to the opposite limiting protrusions 10534 to form mutually parallel and deformable bent portions 10535.
[0187] In some embodiments, the bent portion 10535 is rectangular, and the width of the bent portion 10535 is the same as the width of the limiting protrusion 10534. A gap is left between the free end of the bent portion 10535 and the opposite limiting protrusion 10534, allowing the fixing block 1054 to pass through.
[0188] In some embodiments, the width of the fixing block 1054 is the same as the width between two limiting protrusions 10534 arranged on the same side along the length direction of the limiting bracket 1053; and / or, the height and width of the fixing block 1054 are consistent with the internal height and width of the limiting bracket 1053, respectively.
[0189] In some embodiments, a gasket I 1055 is provided at the through holes of the first vertical contact plate 121 and the second horizontal contact plate 122.
[0190] In some embodiments, the bending portion 10535 is a resilient metal spring.
[0191] In some embodiments, the first vertical contact plate 121 and the second horizontal contact plate 122 are integrally formed into the L-shaped connector 12a; and / or, the L-shaped connector 12a is made of a rigid material; and / or, the surface of the L-shaped connector 12a is provided with an anti-oxidation layer.
[0192] Example 3:
[0193] like Figures 28-30As shown, the present invention proposes a support assembly, comprising: a Mimep module and a fall arrestor saddle, wherein the Mimep module includes at least two sets of two-dimensional supports, and the at least two sets of two-dimensional supports are connected by a connecting bracket; the two-dimensional supports include two first supports arranged in parallel, and a second support connected between the two first supports.
[0194] like Figure 30 and Figure 28 As shown, the anti-fall saddle 10 includes a second horizontal connecting plate 102, a first vertical connecting plate 103, a first horizontal connecting plate 101, a second vertical connecting plate 106, and a third horizontal connecting plate 104 connected sequentially from left to right; wherein, the first vertical connecting plate 103, the second vertical connecting plate 106, and the first horizontal connecting plate 101 enclose an installation space that can be used to install the connecting bracket in the building structure, and through holes are respectively opened on the first horizontal connecting plate 101, the second horizontal connecting plate 102, or the third horizontal connecting plate 104.
[0195] The bracket assembly also includes a plurality of connecting fasteners 105 for securing the connecting bracket to the first bracket or the second bracket.
[0196] like Figure 23 , Figure 24 and Figure 26 As shown, in some embodiments, the connecting fastener 105 includes a fastener 1051, an elastic element 1052, a fixing block 1054, and a limiting bracket 1053. The fixing block 1054 is provided with a threaded hole that matches the fastener 1051, and the upper surface of the fixing block 1054 is provided with two sets of teeth 10541 parallel to each other for meshing with the teeth on the inner folded edge of the first bracket, and the two sets of teeth 10541 are respectively located on both sides of the threaded hole; the limiting bracket 1053 includes a bracket body fixed to the first horizontal connecting plate 101, the second horizontal connecting plate 102, or the third horizontal connecting plate 104, and the bracket body is provided with a fastener 1051 for the fastener to engage with the elastic element 1052. The firmware 1051 has a mounting hole 10533 that moves up and down. On the bracket body, the two ends of the two sides that are opposite to each other along the length direction respectively extend along their height direction to form limiting protrusions 10534. A limiting groove 10536 is formed between the two limiting protrusions 10534 on the same side. The two limiting protrusions 10534 on the diagonal extend along the width direction of the bracket body to form deformable bending portions 10535. A gap is left between the bending portions 10535 and the adjacent limiting protrusions 10534 on the opposite side. The bracket body, the limiting protrusions 10534 and the bending portions 10535 cooperate to form a clamping structure for clamping the fixing block 1054.
[0197] When the fixing block 1054 is inserted into the clamping structure, the bracket body, the limiting protrusion 10534 and the bending part 10535 cooperate to clamp the fixing block 1054.
[0198] When the elastic element 1052 is fitted onto the fastener 1051, and the fastener 1051 is passed through the through holes and mounting holes 10533 of the first horizontal connecting plate 101, the second horizontal connecting plate 102, and the third horizontal connecting plate 104, so that it is threadedly connected to the fixing block 1054, the two ends of the elastic element 1052 abut against the head of the fastener 1051 and the limiting bracket 1053 respectively, so that the anti-fall saddle 10 and the connecting fastener 105 are in a pre-assembled state.
[0199] like Figure 30 As shown in the assembly diagram, when the pre-assembled anti-fall saddle 10 and the connecting fastener 105 are installed on the first horizontal connecting plate 101, the second horizontal connecting plate 102, and the third horizontal connecting plate 104, the fixing block 1054, which is clamped in the clamping structure, is located between the two inner folded edges of the connecting bracket or the first bracket or the second bracket.
[0200] When the fastener 1051 is pressed along its height direction, the fastener 1051 causes the fixing block 1054 to move along its height direction. This causes the bent portion 10535 to deform under the pressure of the fixing block 1054, and drives the fixing block 1054 to disengage from the gap and rotate into the limiting groove 10536. This causes the two sets of teeth on the upper surface of the fixing block 1054 to engage with the teeth on the two inner folded edges of the connecting bracket, the first bracket, or the second bracket. (See [reference]) Figure 29 .
[0201] The anti-fall saddle proposed in this invention first fixes the fixing block into the limiting bracket, completing the pre-assembly of the anti-fall saddle. During use, the pre-assembled anti-fall saddle is installed onto other components. By pressing the fastener radially, the fastener drives the fixing block downwards. The bent portion deforms under the compression of the fixing block, widening the gap between the bent portion and the limiting protrusion. The fixing block disengages from the limiting bracket through the two opposing gaps. Simultaneously, under the combined action of the fastener and the limiting bracket, the fixing block, during its downward movement, is held in place by the elastic bent portion... Driven by the mechanism, the device automatically rotates and enters the limiting groove for fixation. Simultaneously, the two sets of teeth on the fixing block engage with the teeth on the two inner folded edges of the connecting bracket, the first bracket, or the second bracket, thereby achieving fixation between the connecting bracket and the first bracket or between the connecting bracket and the second bracket. This invention allows connecting fasteners to be inserted along the height direction of the anti-fall saddle, and then the fasteners to be pressed. After the fixing block rotates automatically, the two sets of teeth on the fixing block automatically engage with the teeth on the inner folded edges for quick installation, making on-site assembly convenient and fast.
[0202] In some embodiments, the fixing block 1054 is a parallelogram, and the angle between the arrangement direction of each set of teeth 10541 and the corresponding side edge (i.e., hypotenuse) of the fixing block 1054 is 5°-25°. In this embodiment, setting the fixing block 1054 as a parallelogram is more conducive to the rotation of the fixing block 1054, preventing it from being stuck and difficult to rotate when a rectangular shape is used. Furthermore, the parallelogram shape has two obtuse angles that correspond to the gaps between the two bends 10535 and the two limiting protrusions 10534, respectively. See [reference needed]. Figure 23 This makes it easier to rotate. Furthermore, the obtuse angle is rounded, which provides a certain guiding effect.
[0203] like Figure 27 As shown, specifically, two grooves are arranged parallel to each other on the upper surface of the fixing block 1054, and each set of teeth 10541 is disposed in the groove, and each set of teeth 10541 includes two rows of teeth arranged in a cross pattern. The spacing between the two sets of teeth corresponds to the spacing between the teeth on the two inner folded edges of the connecting bracket and the first bracket.
[0204] like Figure 25 As shown, in some embodiments, the limiting bracket 1053 is generally in the shape of a hollow cuboid.
[0205] In some embodiments, the support body includes a first body 10531 that is fitted and fixed to the support, and two second bodies 10532 that extend from both sides of the first body 10531 along the height direction of the limiting support 1053 and are arranged opposite to each other; the two ends of the second bodies 10532 extend along the extension direction of the second bodies 10532 to form the limiting protrusions 10534; wherein the two diagonal limiting protrusions 10534 extend in a direction close to the opposite limiting protrusion 10534 to form mutually parallel and deformable bent portions 10535.
[0206] In some embodiments, the bent portion 10535 is rectangular, and the width of the bent portion 10535 is the same as the width of the limiting protrusion 10534. A gap is left between the free end of the bent portion 10535 and the opposite limiting protrusion 10534, allowing the fixing block 1054 to pass through.
[0207] In some embodiments, the fixing block 1054 is cuboid in shape, the threaded hole is located at the center of the fixing block 1054, and two edges of the fixing block 1054 in the height direction are smoothly transitioned.
[0208] In some embodiments, the width of the fixing block 1054 is the same as the width between the two limiting protrusions 10534 arranged on the same side along the length direction of the limiting bracket 1053.
[0209] In some embodiments, the height and width of the fixing block 1054 are consistent with the internal height and width of the limiting bracket 1053, respectively.
[0210] In some embodiments, the first horizontal connecting plate 101, the second horizontal connecting plate 102 and the third horizontal connecting plate 104 are provided with through holes for the fastener 105 to pass through, and a gasket is provided on the through hole.
[0211] In some embodiments, the bending portion 10535 is a resilient metal spring.
[0212] In some embodiments, the first horizontal connecting plate 101, the first vertical connecting plate, the second horizontal connecting plate 102, the second vertical connecting plate 106, and the third horizontal connecting plate 104 are integrally molded to form the anti-fall saddle 10; and / or, the anti-fall saddle 10 is made of rigid material.
[0213] In some embodiments, the surface of the anti-fall saddle 10 is provided with an anti-oxidation layer.
[0214] In some embodiments, the fastener described above is a bolt with external threads.
[0215] Example 4:
[0216] See Figures 9 to 12 , Figure 31 The present invention provides a swing module 5 for connecting multi-segment pull wires, comprising: a first connecting end 51, and a second connecting end 52 connected to the first connecting end 51. Preferably, the end face distance between the first connecting end 51 and the second connecting end 52 is at least able to accommodate four fasteners (e.g., nuts) arranged vertically along the extension direction of the pull wire.
[0217] See Figure 23 The first connecting end 51 is provided with a fixing hole that passes through the first connecting end 51, and the second connecting end 52 is provided with a swing groove 521 that passes through the second connecting end 52. The size of the swing groove 521 is smaller than the size of the fixing hole (the size here mainly refers to the length of the swing groove 521 and the fixing hole extending along the length direction of the second connecting end and the first connecting end, respectively).
[0218] More specifically, the multi-segment guy cable 4a for the hoisting bracket module of the present invention includes a first segment 41 and a second segment 42. The connecting end of the first segment 41 is fixed / installed to the surface to be installed (such as the top wall of a house), and the connecting end of the second segment 42 is connected to the bracket module through a swing module 5. By setting up the multi-segment guy cable 4a and using the aforementioned swing module 5 to connect the free ends of the two segments respectively, the second segment 42 can swing back and forth in the swing groove 521 on the second connecting end 52 of the module, thereby realizing a slight adjustment of the module in the horizontal direction.
[0219] Specifically, when it is necessary to connect the first segment 41 and the second segment 42 of the multi-segment pull cable 4a, the first segment 41 (the free end not connected to the mounting surface) passes through the fixing hole and is fixedly connected to the first connecting end 51 through the first limiting member 511 and the second limiting member 512. The second segment 42 of the multi-segment pull cable 4a (the free end not connected to the bracket module) passes through the swing groove 521 and is connected to the second connecting end 52 through the third limiting member 522 and the fourth limiting member, so that the second segment 42 of the pull cable 4 can slide back and forth relative to the second connecting end 52. Here, the fixed connection means that the first limiting member 511 and the second limiting member 512 are tightly fitted to both ends of the fixing hole, so that the first segment 41 cannot rotate relative to the fixing hole.
[0220] In other embodiments, when the angle of the module needs to be adjusted, the swing module can be configured to rotate relative to the first segment 41. For example, when two adjacent modules need to be docked, but the axial directions of the two modules are slightly different, the swing module can be rotated appropriately relative to the pull wire 4 to facilitate alignment between the two modules as quickly as possible. Specifically, the distance between the first limiting member 511 and the second limiting member 512 can be adjusted to be greater than the thickness of the first connecting end 51, so that when the angle of the module needs to be adjusted, the module can be rotated, thereby causing the second segment 42 and the swing module 5 to rotate relative to the first segment 41, thereby achieving alignment. Of course, when the angle of the module needs to be adjusted, the second segment 42 can also be configured to rotate relative to the second connecting end 52 of the swing module 5. Of course, in other embodiments, the second limiting member 512 may not be provided, thereby preserving the rotational freedom of the swing module relative to the first segment 41.
[0221] In other embodiments, when the height of the support module needs to be adjusted, the right-angle height can be finely adjusted by adjusting the positions of the first and second limiting members on the first segment, and / or adjusting the positions of the third and fourth limiting members on the second segment. For example, when two adjacent modules need to be docked, but the heights of the two modules are slightly different, the positions of the first and second limiting members on the first segment, and / or the third and fourth limiting members, can be adjusted appropriately to facilitate alignment between the two modules as quickly as possible.
[0222] To adapt to different installation requirements, such as the different degrees of freedom required for the edges and middle areas of the bracket module, for example, the reciprocating movement of the pull wire 4 relative to the swing groove can be considered as having one degree of freedom in the horizontal direction; the rotation of the pull wire 4 relative to the fixing hole can be considered as having one degree of freedom in the rotation; the length of the pull wire 4 can be adjusted by the swing module, such as adjusting the length of the pull wire passing through the fixing hole or the swing groove to enlarge or reduce the length of the pull wire, which can be considered as having one degree of freedom in the vertical direction.
[0223] For example, the swing module is set on at least one second pull line corresponding to a two-dimensional support (such as a two-dimensional support located in the middle of the module) at a non-edge location of the module, which has one degree of freedom of movement in the horizontal direction, but preferably no degree of freedom of rotation.
[0224] For example, the swing module is set on at least one second pull line corresponding to the two-dimensional support at the edge of the module (such as the two-dimensional support at both ends of the module); the second swing module has one degree of freedom of movement in the horizontal direction and one degree of freedom of rotation.
[0225] In other words, the difference between the two requirements mentioned above is that the multi-segment pull cable 4a (such as its first or second segment) can be linearly adjusted in the horizontal direction, or it can be both linearly and rotaryly adjusted in the horizontal direction. Linear adjustment refers to the pull cable (such as the second segment) being able to reciprocate along the axial direction of the swing groove 521. Rotary adjustment refers to the second pull cable being able to rotate relative to the swing module, for example, the swing module can rotate relative to the first segment through a fixing hole.
[0226] Preferably, the two third connecting ends 53 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the first connecting end 51 / second connecting end 52, and the first connecting end 51, the second connecting end 52 and the third connecting end 53 form an isosceles trapezoid.
[0227] Furthermore, in some embodiments, it further includes at least one first limiting member 511 and at least one second limiting member 512 disposed on the first segment 41, wherein when the first segment 41 passes through the fixing hole, the first limiting member 511 and the second limiting member 512 are respectively located at both ends of the fixing hole to fix the first segment 41.
[0228] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the first limiting member 511 includes:
[0229] The third nut 5111 is fitted onto the side of the first section 41 that passes through the fixing hole;
[0230] The fourth nut 5112 is fitted onto the first section 41 and positioned between the third nut 5111 and the fixing hole.
[0231] Preferably, the pull wire 4 is provided with an external thread, and the nut is provided with an internal thread, so that it can be sleeved on the pull wire 4 by cooperating with the external thread.
[0232] Furthermore, in some embodiments, when the swing module has rotational degrees of freedom, the third nut 5111 and the fourth nut 5112 are preferably spaced apart on the pull wire 4, such that the third and fourth nuts are spaced apart by at least two turns of thread width on the pull wire 4. This spaced arrangement can alleviate the problem of nuts loosening during rotation.
[0233] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the third limiting member 522 includes:
[0234] The first nut 5221 is fitted onto the second segment 42, such as at the top of the second segment 42;
[0235] The second nut 5222 is located between the first nut 5221 and the swing groove 521.
[0236] Preferably, for a swing module with degrees of freedom of movement and rotation, degrees of freedom of movement and rotation are respectively set at the bottom and top of the swing module, which ensures that each degree of freedom has relatively independent adjustment capability, further reducing the difficulty of adjustment and improving the connection stability between the swing module and the first segment during the adjustment process.
[0237] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the second limiting member 512 includes at least one sixth nut, which is disposed on the other side of the first segment 41 of the pull wire passing through the fixing hole.
[0238] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the fourth limiting member 523 includes at least one fifth nut disposed on the other side of the second segment 42 of the pull wire passing through the swing groove 521.
[0239] When there is a certain deviation in height or horizontal direction between two hoisting modules during the hoisting process of this invention, the height or horizontal position of at least one module can be adjusted to align them. The micro-oscillation adjustment via the guy wire provided by this invention facilitates step-by-step alignment operations for construction personnel, thereby reducing the difficulty of operating hoisting machinery. Therefore, even novice construction personnel can quickly learn and master the installation method.
[0240] Based on the aforementioned swing module, the present invention also provides a swing assembly comprising: a multi-segment pull cable, the multi-segment pull cable including a first segment and a second segment, wherein the connecting end of the first segment can be fixed / installed on the surface to be installed (e.g., the ceiling of a building), and the connecting end of the second segment is connected to a support module; the free ends of the two segments respectively pass through the fixing hole and the swing groove in the aforementioned swing module, and are limited by corresponding limiting members. For example, the other end or free end of the first segment passes through the fixing hole on the first connecting end in the swing module, and is fixedly or rotatably connected to the first connecting end by the first limiting member and the second limiting member; the other end or free end of the second segment passes through the swing groove on the second connecting end in the swing module, and is slidably and / or rotatably connected to the second connecting end by the third limiting member and the fourth limiting member. The specific working principle and assembly method can be referred to the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.
[0241] Example 5:
[0242] like Figures 32-34 As shown, the present invention proposes a support assembly and a base, comprising: a Mimep module and a base 13, wherein,
[0243] The Mimep module includes at least two sets of two-dimensional supports, and the at least two sets of two-dimensional supports are connected by connecting supports; the two-dimensional supports include two first supports arranged in parallel, and a second support connected between the tops of the two first supports.
[0244] The base 13 includes: a first mounting plate 131 and a second mounting plate 132, a third mounting plate 133, and a fourth mounting plate 134 fixedly connected to the bottom of the first mounting plate 131. The second mounting plate 132, the third mounting plate 133, and the fourth mounting plate 134 form a receiving space that can accommodate the connection between the first bracket and the second bracket. See [reference needed] Figure 32 .
[0245] The second mounting plate 132 is symmetrically arranged with the third mounting plate 133 and can be perpendicular to the first mounting plate 131. The second mounting plate 132 and the third mounting plate 133 are each provided with a first mounting hole 135 and a second mounting hole 136. The top of the first mounting plate 131 is provided with a third mounting hole 137 and a pull wire hole 138 for the pull wire to pass through.
[0246] The base 13 is connected to the first bracket and the second bracket via self-tapping fasteners (such as self-tapping screws). The self-tapping fasteners include first self-tapping fasteners 139 that mate with first mounting holes 135 on the second mounting plate and the third mounting plate, respectively, and second self-tapping fasteners 140 that mate with second mounting holes 136 on the second mounting plate 132 and the third mounting plate 133, respectively. By providing self-tapping fasteners on the second mounting plate 132 and the third mounting plate 133, the problem of difficult assembly due to unpredictable internal structures when using a long bolt to penetrate the two first mounting holes or the two second mounting holes on the second mounting plate 132 and the third mounting plate 133 is avoided. Preferably, a certain gap is left between the first self-tapping fasteners on the two symmetrical first mounting holes; similarly, a certain gap is left between the second self-tapping fasteners on the two symmetrical second mounting holes, thereby preventing mutual interference between the self-tapping fasteners and affecting the stability of the module.
[0247] The base 13 proposed in this invention has a receiving space formed by multiple mounting plates that can accommodate the right-angle portion formed by the connection of the first bracket and the second bracket, and multiple mounting holes are provided thereon. The mounting holes can correspond to the through holes on the first bracket and the second bracket. When the self-tapping fastener passes through the mounting hole and self-taps the through hole on the first bracket or the second bracket, the base 13 is securely connected to the bracket.
[0248] The first mounting plate is detachably mounted with a lifting ring for lifting the Mimep module; the lifting ring includes a lifting ring body 142 and a third fastener 141 fixedly connected to the lifting ring body, the third fastener 141 cooperating with the third mounting hole 137.
[0249] The present invention provides a lifting ring (or lifting component) on the side of the pull wire hole 138. In addition to pulling the wire to lift the Mimep module, it is also connected to the lifting ring by various lifting devices, and then the Mimep module is lifted by the lifting ring.
[0250] In some embodiments, both the second mounting plate 132 and the third mounting plate 133 include a first body 1321 and a second body 1331 connected to each other. The first mounting hole 135 penetrates the first body 1321 and is a strip-shaped hole extending along the length direction of the first body 1321; the second mounting hole 136 penetrates the second body 1331 and is a strip-shaped hole extending along the height direction of the second body 1331. In this embodiment, by providing strip-shaped holes on the first body 1331 parallel to the second bracket and on the second body 1331 parallel to the first bracket, fine adjustments in the horizontal direction and / or vertical direction can be achieved.
[0251] In some embodiments, the pull hole 138 is connected to the through channel in the first bracket.
[0252] In some embodiments, the first body 1321 is fixedly connected to the second bracket via a first self-tapping fastener, and the second body 1331 is fixedly connected to the first bracket via a second self-tapping fastener.
[0253] In some embodiments, the first mounting plate 131, the second mounting plate 132, the third mounting plate 133, and the fourth mounting plate 134 are integrally formed.
[0254] In some embodiments, the lifting ring body 142 includes a U-shaped portion 1421 and a crossbar 1422 fixedly connected to the two free ends of the U-shaped portion. A ring-shaped member 1423, fixedly connected to the top of a third fastener 141, is provided at the middle of the crossbar. By providing the U-shaped portion 1421, the crossbar 1422, and the ring-shaped member 1423, the lifting ring body 142 can be fixedly connected to the first mounting plate 131 via the third fastener 141 (e.g., bolts and nuts).
[0255] The present invention provides a lifting ring on the first mounting plate 131 that is fixedly connected to the third fastener 141 to ensure that force is applied to the first bracket and the second bracket at the same time, so as to facilitate the hoisting of the Mimep module.
[0256] In some embodiments, the plane on which the lifting ring body 142 is located is perpendicular to the plane on which the first mounting plate 131 is located.
[0257] In some embodiments, the lifting ring body 142 and the third fastener 141 are manufactured using an integral molding process.
[0258] In some embodiments, both the lifting ring body 141 and the base 13 are made of rigid materials; and / or, the surface of the base 13 is provided with an anti-oxidation layer.
[0259] In other embodiments, the present invention also provides another base, which includes the various components of the base in the above embodiments, except that the base does not have a hanging ring.
[0260] This embodiment proposes a base with a semi-open structure (a semi-open structure base refers to a base with an opening at the bottom and one side, and mounting plates on the top and other sides, so that the internal cavity of the base forms an installation space for mounting the joint of the first bracket and the second bracket). The accommodating space enclosed by the multiple mounting plates of the base can accommodate the right-angle structure formed by the vertical connection of the first bracket and the second bracket on its top. The base is provided with multiple mounting holes, which correspond to the through holes on the first bracket or the second bracket, and the base is securely connected to the first bracket and the second bracket by self-tapping fasteners such as self-tapping screws.
