[0021] like Figure 1-6 As shown: A louvered awning that is easy to assemble mainly consists of a rectangular frame formed by several crossbeams 1, a drive unit 2, and louvers 3. The drive unit 2 is slidably mounted in the internal cavity of the crossbeams 1 via a support guide rail. The drive unit 2 has a rotating shaft 203, which can be connected to a power device such as a hand crank or a motor. The rotating shaft 203 is rotated by the power device, and then transmitted to the louvers 3 via the assembly part 4, thereby driving the louvers 3 to move. The louvers 3 and the drive unit 2 are detachably connected through the assembly part 4. This detachable connection allows the crossbeams 1 and the louvers 3 to be separated and transported as separate items.

[0022] like Figure 1-4 As shown: Assembly part 4 includes a louver fixing end 401 fixedly connected to the louver blade 3 and a drive fixing end 402 fixedly connected to the drive unit 2. The louver fixing end 401 is used to connect the louver blade 3 and, as the connecting part of the louver blade 3, protrudes from both ends of the louver blade 3. The drive fixing end 402 is drively connected to the drive unit 2 and is confined within the rotating shaft 203 installed in the drive unit 2. Similarly, the drive fixing end 402 protrudes from the inner side of the crossbeam 1 to mate with the louver fixing end 401. A mounting groove for inserting the drive fixing end 402 is provided on one side of the louver fixing end 401. The mounting groove has a slot that matches the drive fixing end 402 so that the drive fixing end 402 extends into the mounting groove. The louver fixing end 401 and the drive fixing end 402 are fixedly connected to each other through the mounting groove, and a locking mechanism is provided at the joint of the two. The function of the locking mechanism is to lock the joint of the two and improve the connection strength.

[0023] like Figure 7-8As shown: The louver fixing end 401 has a slot that communicates with the mounting groove. The slot and the mounting groove form a quick-release slot 405. One end of the drive fixing end 402 matches the quick-release slot 405 and is fixed therein by a locking mechanism. In this embodiment, the quick-release slot 405 has a U-shaped cross section. The two sides of the quick-release slot 405 are provided with connecting holes that match the docking holes opened on the drive fixing end 402. The number of docking holes and connecting holes can be adjusted appropriately. There can be one or more pairs. They are quickly fixed by locking bolts in the locking mechanism. In addition, the docking holes and connecting holes can be arranged on the sides or the bottom surface.

[0024] When quick assembly is required, simply insert the drive fixing end 402 into the quick-release slot 405 from top to bottom or bottom to top to complete the quick assembly and positioning, achieving a faster and more convenient installation.

[0025] like Figure 3-4 As shown: The locking mechanism includes a locking bolt. The outer surface of the louver fixing end 401 is provided with blind holes 403 for vertical alignment. The drive fixing end 402 is provided with a mating hole corresponding to the blind hole 403. When the drive fixing end 402 is inserted into the louver fixing end 401, the blind hole 403 and the mating hole are aligned. Then the locking bolt passes through the blind hole 403 and the mating hole in sequence and extends out from the other end of the louver fixing end 401. A locking nut is installed at the extended end to complete the locking after mating. When it needs to be removed, simply unscrew the locking bolt, which is very convenient.

[0026] In addition, the blind hole 403 is a threaded hole. The locking bolt is threaded with the blind hole 403, which can further increase the connection strength and prevent the separation, thereby achieving axial locking of the drive fixed end 402 and the louver fixed end 401.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown: Both sides of the louver 3 are provided with mounting holes 301, and the louver fixing end 401 extends into the mounting holes 301 and is fixed therein. The shape of the mounting holes 301 matches the shape of the louver fixing end 401. In this embodiment, the louver fixing end 401 is installed by a threaded connection. Specifically, the louver fixing end 401 is first inserted into the mounting hole 301, and then a bolt is inserted through a threaded hole connected to the mounting hole 301. The louver fixing end 401 at the corresponding position of the threaded hole has a mounting hole with an internal thread. Screwing the bolt into the mounting hole achieves the limiting installation of the louver fixing end 401.

[0028] like Figure 2-6As shown: The drive unit 2 is provided with a rotating shaft 203 that is connected to the power device for transmission. The end of the drive fixed end 402 away from the louver fixed end 401 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 203 and can move accordingly with the rotation of the rotating shaft 203. In this embodiment, the drive fixed end 402 is a square column. The rotating shaft 203 is provided with a square hole that matches the square column. The drive fixed end 402 is inserted into the square hole and then fixed by key connection, pin connection or threaded connection to achieve follow-up movement.

[0029] The cross-sectional shape of the louver fixing end 401 and the drive fixing end 402 is a cylindrical or square column structure, and the outer diameter of the louver fixing end 401 is larger than the outer diameter of the drive fixing end 402.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown: An insertion part 404 is integrally formed on one side of the drive fixing end 402. The cross-sectional dimension of the insertion part 404 is smaller than that of the drive fixing end 402. By setting the insertion part 404, the groove diameter of the mounting groove can be reduced, thereby improving the strength of the louver fixing end 401. The insertion part 404 extends into the mounting groove, and its outer wall is fitted to the inner wall of the mounting groove.

[0031] During installation, firstly, the louver fixing end 401 is pre-fixed to all louver blades 3, and the drive fixing end 402 is pre-connected to the rotating shaft 203 of the drive unit 2. Then, the drive unit 2 is installed in the predetermined position within the crossbeam 1. Next, a louver blade 3 already fitted with the louver fixing end 401 is picked up, aligned with the direction of the drive unit 2, and the insertion part 404 on the drive fixing end 402 is directly aligned and inserted into the mounting groove of the louver fixing end 401. At this point, the outer wall of the insertion part 404 fits tightly against the inner wall of the mounting groove, achieving initial positioning and connection. Finally, a locking bolt is inserted through the blind hole 403 on the outside of the louver fixing end 401. This bolt passes through the corresponding mating holes on the louver fixing end 401 and the drive fixing end 402, and finally protrudes from the other side. A locking nut is then tightened. At this point, the louver blade 3 and the drive unit 2 are securely connected together. The above steps are then repeated to install all louver blades 3.

[0032] In summary, by setting up the assembly part 4 to allow the drive unit 2 and the louver 3 located in the crossbeam 1 to be detachably connected, the louver 3 and the crossbeam 1 are modularized. When transportation is required, the crossbeam and the louver part can be packaged as separate components, effectively reducing the packaging volume and transportation costs. During on-site installation, the installer only needs to insert the drive fixing end 402 into the mounting groove of the louver fixing end 401, and then fix it with a simple locking mechanism such as locking bolts. The whole process is simple and quick, requires no complicated tools, and can be operated by a single person, which greatly improves the installation efficiency. Furthermore, by using the matching of large and small ends to fasten the louver fixing end 401 and the drive fixing end 402, and then locking it with bolts, a firm mechanical connection can be formed, ensuring that the power of the drive unit 2 can be stably and accurately transmitted to the louver, ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the louver adjustment process.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
