Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of decoration and construction, and in particular to a structure for wrapping kitchen and bathroom drain pipes. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of interior decoration and renovation projects, the installation of drainage pipes in kitchens and bathrooms is a crucial step. After the pipe wrapping is completed, tiling is usually required to enhance the overall aesthetics and visual appeal of the interior. Currently, the most common technique is to use brick masonry to encase the drainage pipes, followed by plastering after the brickwork is complete. However, this traditional method has significant drawbacks. Due to the considerable thickness of the brickwork, the actual usable space inside the room is reduced after the entire renovation project is finished, resulting in wasted space and a lower effective utilization rate of the interior space. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the problem of low indoor space utilization when using bricklaying to wrap drain pipes in the existing technology. Therefore, a structure for wrapping drain pipes in kitchens and bathrooms is provided.

[0004] This utility model provides a structure for wrapping kitchen and bathroom drain pipes, including: A plurality of panels are provided, which are used to enclose a wall to form an area that can cover a drain pipe; two adjacent panels are connected by structural adhesive and connectors; the panels adjacent to the wall are connected to the wall by wall ties. A cover plate, one of which has an access port, the cover plate being adapted to the access port; the cover plate can be installed in the access port, and the cover plate is detachably connected to the plate having the access port via a magnetic connection. Several of the plates and the cover plates are made of fiber cement board.

[0005] The fiber cement board refers to a board made of cement as the basic material and adhesive, mineral fiber cement and other fibers as reinforcing materials, through processes such as pulping, molding and curing. The thickness of the fiber cement board is generally 4mm-12mm.

[0006] This utility model provides a structure for enclosing kitchen and bathroom drain pipes. Several panels are sequentially connected to each other and fitted with a wall to enclose an area that can wrap the drain pipe. Adjacent panels are double-connected via structural adhesive and connectors, enhancing the connection strength and stability between adjacent panels. Wall ties connect the panels to the wall. An access port provides an access for maintenance of the drain pipe. A cover plate is fitted to the access port, allowing for better installation. The cover plate is detachably connected to the panel with the access port via magnetic attraction. Installation and removal of the cover plate can be completed quickly with a simple pull or release, without the need for complex tools, greatly improving efficiency. Furthermore, the magnetic connection is a concealed installation method; compared to traditional clips and clamps, it does not have any protruding parts on the panel surface, saving space and resulting in a cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Several of the aforementioned plates and cover plates are made of fiber cement board, which has high strength and a thickness that can be controlled between 4mm and 12mm. Compared with traditional brick-built pipe wrapping, which is typically 120mm or 240mm thick, this invention uses fiber cement board to wrap the drain pipe, significantly reducing the thickness of the wrapping, effectively minimizing the occupation of indoor space, and thus improving the utilization rate of indoor space.

[0007] The drain pipe is typically arranged along a wall. Therefore, this invention uses a method where the panels are connected to the wall to jointly enclose an area for wrapping the drain pipe. Specifically: when the drain pipe is adjacent to a single wall, three panels can be used, with adjacent panels joined at right angles; when the drain pipe is located at a right-angled wall (i.e., a corner), two panels joined at right angles can be used in conjunction with the right-angled wall to form an area that wraps the drain pipe.

[0008] The connector can be a wire, a bendable iron sheet, or an L-shaped fixing clip.

[0009] Preferably, the connector is an L-shaped fixing clip, and the two arms of the L-shaped fixing clip are respectively connected to the two adjacent plates by rivets. In this design, compared to wire and bendable iron sheet connections, the L-shaped fixing clip has greater rigidity due to its structural characteristics, making it less prone to deformation under stress. This provides a more reliable connection rigidity between the two adjacent plates, effectively enhancing the stability and strength of the connection. The rivets here serve to tightly connect each arm of the L-shaped fixing clip to the corresponding plate, ensuring the integrity of the entire connection structure.

[0010] Preferably, two adjacent plates are provided with grooves that fit the arms of the L-shaped fixing clip, and the two arms of the L-shaped fixing clip are respectively embedded in the grooves of the two adjacent plates. In this design, the grooves ensure that after the L-shaped fixing clip is connected to the plate, it will not protrude excessively from the outer surface of the plate, thereby effectively avoiding interference with the subsequent finishing layer construction.

[0011] The wall tie can be L-shaped or U-shaped, and the connection between the wall tie and the wall can be a pre-embedded bolt or an expansion bolt connection.

[0012] Preferably, the wall connector is a U-shaped clip, which is connected to the wall via expansion bolts. In this design, the opening of the U-shaped clip allows it to tightly clamp the edge of the plate. Compared to L-shaped wall connectors, the connection between the U-shaped clip and the plate is more stable and reliable, resulting in a superior connection effect. Furthermore, compared to pre-embedded bolts, the U-shaped clip's connection to the wall via expansion bolts offers greater freedom in choosing the installation location, significantly improving installation flexibility.

[0013] Preferably, the gap between the panel and the wall is filled with cement mortar. In this embodiment, the cement mortar is used to fill the gap between the panel and the wall, thereby achieving a sealing effect on the gap.

[0014] Preferably, vertical keels are provided at the connection points between adjacent panels, and each panel has several horizontal keels along its height. The horizontal and vertical keels are connected at their intersections. Both the horizontal and vertical keels are positioned on the side facing the drain pipe. In this design, when the width of the panel is large, it is prone to deformation. The vertical and horizontal keels provide effective support for the panel, enhancing its structural stability and thus strengthening it, effectively reducing deformation. The horizontal and vertical keels are positioned on the side facing the drain pipe to avoid interfering with subsequent finishing layer construction. The interconnection of the horizontal and vertical keels at their intersections strengthens the overall integrity between them.

[0015] The plate body can be connected to the vertical keel and the horizontal keel by means of nails or structural adhesive.

[0016] Preferably, the plate is connected to both the vertical and horizontal keels using structural adhesive. Compared to using nails to connect the plate to the vertical and horizontal keels, using structural adhesive has the following advantages: Specifically, nailing requires external force to forcibly drive the nails into the plate, a process that can easily cause localized damage, such as cracks or holes, affecting the integrity and aesthetics of the plate. Structural adhesive connection, on the other hand, achieves a stable connection between the plate and the vertical and horizontal keels through the adhesive's bonding force, eliminating the need for drilling or nailing, thus effectively reducing damage to the plate during the connection process.

[0017] Preferably, a wire mesh or mesh fabric is provided at the connection between the panel and the wall. In this design, the wire mesh and the mesh fabric can strengthen the connection between the panel and the wall, reducing the risk of cracking.

[0018] Preferably, the side of the panel facing the drain pipe is provided with sound insulation cotton. In this design, the main function of the sound insulation cotton is to effectively reduce the noise generated by the drain pipe during use (such as water flow and air flow inside the pipe), thereby reducing the impact of noise on the indoor environment.

[0019] Preferably, the surface of the plate facing away from the drain pipe has a textured surface. This textured surface significantly increases the surface area of ​​the plate. When the facing bricks are adhered to the plate surface, the increased surface area leads to a larger contact area between the plate and the adhesive. This larger contact area means the adhesive can adhere more fully to the plate, significantly enhancing the bond strength between the facing bricks and the plate, effectively improving the adhesion and ensuring the firmness and stability of the adhered facing bricks.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model provides a structure for wrapping drain pipes in kitchens and bathrooms. By wrapping the drain pipes with fiber cement boards, the thickness of the wrapping can be significantly reduced, effectively reducing the occupation of indoor space and thus improving the utilization rate of indoor space.

[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. However, it should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention to the following embodiments; all technologies implemented based on the content of the present invention fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0026] Unless otherwise specified, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "center," "inner," and "outer" used in the description of specific embodiments of this utility model to indicate orientation or positional relationships are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship in which the utility model product / equipment / device is usually placed during use. These terms are merely for the purpose of facilitating the description of the utility model solution or simplifying the description in specific embodiments, and for enabling those skilled in the art to quickly understand the solution, and do not indicate or imply that a specific device / component / element must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific positional relationship. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0027] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," "suspended," "parallel," and "coaxial" does not imply that the corresponding device / component / element must be absolutely horizontal, vertical, suspended, parallel, or coaxial. Slight tilt or deviation is permissible, as long as it does not affect the normal function of the relevant component. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal relative to "vertical," not that the structure must be perfectly horizontal; a slight tilt is acceptable.

Alternatively, it can be simplified to mean that the corresponding device / component / element, when arranged in "horizontal," "vertical," "suspended," "parallel," or "coaxial" directions, can have an error / deviation of ±10% relative to the corresponding direction, more preferably within ±8%, more preferably within ±6%, more preferably within ±5%, and more preferably within ±4%. For example, the deviation in the "coaxial" direction is controlled within 0.2-1mm, preferably within 0.2-0.5mm. As long as the corresponding device / component / element is within the error / deviation range, it can still achieve its function in the present invention.

[0028] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first," "second," and "third" in terminology is merely for distinguishing descriptions of identical or similar components and should not be interpreted as emphasizing or implying the relative importance of a particular component.

[0029] Furthermore, in the description of the embodiments of this utility model, "several", "multiple", and "several" represent at least two. The number can be any number, such as two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine, and can even exceed nine.

[0030] Furthermore, in the description of the technical solution of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified / limited / restricted, the terms "set up," "install," "connect," "link," "provided with," "laid out," and "arranged" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to common connection methods in the art, such as welding, riveting, bolting, and threaded connections. Such connections can be mechanical, electrical, or communication connections; they can be direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components.

[0031] Example 1 like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a structure for enclosing kitchen and bathroom drain pipes includes several plates 1, wall ties 2, connectors 3, and cover plates 4.

[0032] Several panels 1 are used to enclose the area of ​​the wall 8 to cover the drain pipe 5; adjacent panels 1 are connected by structural adhesive and connectors 3; panels 1 adjacent to the wall 8 are connected to the wall 8 by wall ties 2.

The pipe is fixed to the wall using U-shaped clips at the joint, ensuring accurate angles and a secure installation. Standardized construction is possible, and quality is easily controlled. The surface of the fiber cement board has a roughened finish, increasing adhesion and effectively reducing the rate of hollow tiles. The fiber cement board also has good flatness, effectively improving the smoothness of the surface to be tiled, thus facilitating subsequent tiling work.

[0052] The fiber cement board can specifically be a lightweight cement fiber board.

[0053] Lightweight cement fiberboard is made primarily from natural magnesium oxide, perlite, calcium, and other mineral powders. It is an inorganic board material, free of chloride ions, with zero formaldehyde release.
