Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to a concealed inspection port in wall ceramic tiles, belonging to the field of building decoration technology. Background Technology

[0002] In building decoration projects, the walls of water-contaminated spaces such as kitchens and bathrooms typically undergo the following construction process: First, the wall base is waterproofed as a whole. After sealing the areas where water supply and drainage pipes penetrate the wall or are concealed, a uniform waterproof layer is applied. Finally, decorative tiles are fully applied to the wall surface, completely concealing the drainage pipes within the decorative layer. While this approach achieves a good overall decorative effect and initial waterproofing, it makes it impossible to directly inspect and repair any blockages or leaks in the drainage pipes because the pipes are completely sealed.

[0003] Currently, there are two main approaches in the industry: The first is to not leave an access panel, requiring experience-based judgment or repeated troubleshooting of the fault point, and manual removal of the corresponding tiles and substrate. This is not only inefficient and costly, but also severely damages the original decoration and disrupts the user's daily life. The second approach involves pre-cutting an access panel outline into the tiles at the predicted repair location, placing the tiles in a "critical separation" state. When repair is needed, the tiles are knocked off. However, this type of cut-out structure is prone to moisture seeping into the wall through gaps due to poor sealing during daily use. Long-term accumulation can lead to mold and bacterial growth, damaging the overall appearance of the wall and affecting the decorative effect.

[0004] Therefore, in order to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, a concealed access panel for wall tiles is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a concealed inspection port for wall tiles in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objective through the following technical solution: a concealed inspection port in a wall tile, installed inside a sealed wall, characterized in that it includes an inspection port metal frame and a tile panel installed on the inspection port metal frame. The inspection port metal frame is fixed inside the sealed wall. A metal profile frame is installed on the back of the tile panel. The upper and lower ends of the metal profile frame are provided with pivots. The metal profile frame is connected to the inspection port metal frame through the pivots. A rebound device is installed on the plaster layer inside the sealed wall. The tile panel is an openable tile panel, and the opening and closing of the tile panel is realized through the pivots and the rebound device.

[0007] Furthermore, the inspection port metal frame is vertically arranged from top to bottom as an F-shaped metal frame, an L-shaped metal frame, and a rectangular metal frame. The F-shaped metal frame is provided with a groove for fixing the flexible sealing strip.

[0008] Furthermore, a stop plate is provided on one side of the L-shaped metal frame, and a fixing groove is provided on the stop plate for limiting the position of the metal profile frame.

[0009] Furthermore, the rectangular metal frame is installed at the upper and lower crossbeams of the inspection port metal frame.
