AI Technical Summary
[0003]车棚在日常使用中虽然具有很多的优点,但在大风天气中,由于车棚的面积较大,容易受到大风巨大的压力
[0014] In windy weather, this invention can control a stepper motor to drive a drive gear on a positioning rack within the mounting frame, based on wind force and the installation position of the membrane structure. This causes the mounting frame and limiting sliders to slide within the limiting grooves. Simultaneously, the adjusting rollers on the two limiting sliders move to different positions on the membrane structure. This not only allows the top surface of the membrane structure to bulge into an arc shape to increase wind resistance, but also allows adjustment of the positions of the protrusions at both ends of the membrane structure to achieve the optimal arc according to the wind speed and position, further enhancing the windproof effect. When wind passes under the membrane structure, it passes over a spoiler. The limiting grooves at both ends of the spoiler and the keys on the limiting rods have a certain gap, allowing the limiting grooves and rods to rotate within a certain range. This allows the spoiler to swing when strong winds blow, thus interfering with the wind's flow path and weakening the wind force, achieving a further windproof effect.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of windproof technology for carports, and more particularly to a windproof structure for carports. Background Technology
[0002] A carport is a simple building structure used to provide shade, rain protection, and vehicle protection. It typically consists of a supporting frame and covering material. Carports are widely used in residential areas, commercial plazas, and businesses to protect vehicles and extend their lifespan. The main types of carports include fixed carports, mobile carports, and membrane structure carports.
[0003] While carports offer many advantages in daily use, their large surface area makes them susceptible to immense wind pressure during strong winds. Most existing carport technologies rely on their own structural strength for wind protection, offering only passive protection. This results in significant stress on the carport structure, accelerating aging and damage over time, and reducing its lifespan. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a windproof structure for carports, which solves the technical problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] This application provides a windproof structure for a carport, including a carport body. Two limiting grooves are provided on the upper part of the carport body. An active protection structure is slidably connected inside the two limiting grooves. A deflector is provided inside the active protection structure.
[0006] The active protection structure includes a limiting slider that is slidably connected to a limiting groove. An adjusting roller is rotatably connected to the upper end of the two limiting sliders. A positioning rack is fixedly connected to the lower part of the limiting groove. A drive gear is meshed on the positioning rack. A stepper motor is fixedly connected to the drive gear.
[0007] A membrane structure is installed on the shed, and the adjusting rollers are in contact with the membrane structure. A differential is installed between the stepper motor and the drive gear.
[0008] Optionally, the lower end of the limiting slider is connected to and fixed with an installation frame, the installation frame is slidably connected to the positioning rack, and the stepper motor is installed inside the installation frame.
[0009] Optionally, the upper end of the limiting slider has a triangular structure.
[0010] Optionally, a reinforcing block is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the mounting frame, and the reinforcing block is slidably connected to the limiting groove.
[0011] Optionally, a spoiler is installed at the inner end of the two mounting frames, the spoiler including a spoiler plate.
[0012] Optionally, the spoiler has limiting slots at both ends, and the limiting slots are rotatably connected to limiting rods. The limiting rods are fixedly connected to the mounting frame, and the key on the limiting rods is in clearance fit with the limiting slots.
[0013] One or more technical solutions provided in this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:
[0014] In windy weather, this invention can control a stepper motor to drive a drive gear on a positioning rack within the mounting frame, based on wind force and the installation position of the membrane structure. This causes the mounting frame and limiting sliders to slide within the limiting grooves. Simultaneously, the adjusting rollers on the two limiting sliders move to different positions on the membrane structure. This not only allows the top surface of the membrane structure to bulge into an arc shape to increase wind resistance, but also allows adjustment of the positions of the protrusions at both ends of the membrane structure to achieve the optimal arc according to the wind speed and position, further enhancing the windproof effect. When wind passes under the membrane structure, it passes over a spoiler. The limiting grooves at both ends of the spoiler and the keys on the limiting rods have a certain gap, allowing the limiting grooves and rods to rotate within a certain range. This allows the spoiler to swing when strong winds blow, thus interfering with the wind's flow path and weakening the wind force, achieving a further windproof effect. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0021] Reference Figures 1-4This application discloses a windproof structure for a carport, including a carport body 1. Two limiting grooves 2 are formed on the upper part of the carport body 1. An active protection structure 3 is slidably connected inside the two limiting grooves 2, and a deflector 4 is provided inside the active protection structure 3. The active protection structure 3 includes limiting sliders 301 slidably connected to the limiting grooves 2. Adjusting rollers 302 are rotatably connected to the upper ends of the two limiting sliders 301. A positioning rack 303 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the limiting grooves 2. A drive gear 304 is meshed on the positioning rack 303. A stepper motor 305 is fixedly connected to the drive gear 304. A membrane structure is installed on the carport body 1. The adjusting rollers 302 abut against the membrane structure. A differential is installed between the stepper motor 305 and the drive gear 304. A mounting frame 5 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the limiting sliders 301. The mounting frame 5 is slidably connected to the positioning rack 303. The stepper motor 305... 5. Installed within the mounting frame 5, the upper end of the limiting slider 301 has a triangular structure. A reinforcing block 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the mounting frame 5. The reinforcing block 6 is slidably connected to the limiting groove 2. The reinforcing block 6 can increase the stability of the sliding between the limiting slider 301 and the limiting groove 2. In windy weather, the stepper motor 305 can be controlled to drive the drive gear 304 to mesh and move on the positioning rack 303 within the mounting frame 5 according to the wind force and the installation position of the shed 1. This will drive the mounting frame 5 and the limiting slider 301 to slide inside the limiting groove 2. At the same time, the adjusting rollers 302 on the two limiting sliders 301 will move to different positions of the membrane structure. This not only makes the top surface of the membrane structure bulge to form an arc structure to increase wind resistance, but also allows adjustment of the position of the bulges at both ends of the membrane structure. The arc can be adjusted to the optimal curvature according to the wind speed and position, further enhancing the wind resistance effect.
[0022] Two mounting frames 5 are equipped with a flow-deflecting element 4 at their inner ends. The flow-deflecting element 4 includes a flow-deflecting plate 401. The flow-deflecting plate 401 has a limiting groove 402 at both ends. The limiting groove 402 is rotatably connected to a limiting rod 403. The limiting rod 403 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 5. In windy weather, when the wind passes under the membrane structure, it will pass through the flow-deflecting plate 401. There is a certain gap between the limiting groove 402 at both ends of the flow-deflecting plate 401 and the key on the limiting rod 403. In this way, the limiting groove 402 and the limiting rod 403 can rotate within a certain range. Thus, the flow-deflecting plate 401 can swing when the wind blows, which can interfere with the wind flow trajectory, thereby weakening the wind force and achieving a further windproof effect.
[0023] Working principle: When encountering strong winds, the stepper motor 305 is started according to the real-time wind force and the actual installation position of the shed 1. The stepper motor 305 drives the drive gear 304 to rotate inside the mounting frame 5. The drive gear 304 meshes with the positioning rack 303, and the mounting frame 5 moves along the direction of the positioning rack 303 through gear transmission. At the same time, the mounting frame 5 drives the limiting slider 301 to slide synchronously inside the limiting slide groove 2. During the movement of the two limiting sliders 301, the adjusting rollers 302 at the upper end of the two limiting sliders 301 will move to different positions of the membrane structure.
[0024] The adjusting roller 302 provides support at different positions on the membrane structure, causing the top surface of the membrane structure to bulge upwards to form an arc-shaped structure. This arc-shaped structure effectively disperses the impact of strong winds on the membrane structure, improving the overall windproof performance of the shed 1. At the same time, the moving distance of the mounting frame 5 can be adjusted by controlling the stepper motor 305, thereby changing the position of the adjusting roller 302. This allows for flexible adjustment of the bulge positions at both ends of the membrane structure. Based on the actual wind speed and the installation environment of the shed 1, the curvature of the membrane structure can be adjusted to the optimal state, further enhancing its adaptability to different wind directions and speeds, and maximizing the windproof effect.
[0025] When strong winds pass beneath the membrane structure, the airflow flows over the spoiler 401. Because there is a certain gap between the limiting grooves 402 at both ends of the spoiler 401 and the keys on the limiting rods 403, this gap provides the spoiler 401 with a certain amount of rotation space, allowing the limiting grooves 402 to rotate freely around the limiting rods 403 within a limited range. Under the impact of the strong winds, the spoiler 401 oscillates back and forth, continuously interfering with the flow trajectory of the airflow below, disrupting the stable flow state of the airflow, and effectively weakening the wind force. This further reduces the impact of strong winds on the bottom of the canopy 1, working synergistically with the curved windproof design of the membrane structure to comprehensively improve the windproof performance of the canopy 1.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
