Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of curtain technology, and in particular to a curtain side cover installation structure. Background Technology

[0002] A typical curtain usually includes a top beam and a curtain body assembled below the top beam. To enhance the overall aesthetics of the curtain, a side cover is also installed on the side of the top beam facing the room to cover the top of the top beam and the curtain body.

[0003] Existing side cover plates typically have a pivot protruding outward from the top of one side panel and extending along the length of the side cover plate. A pivot groove is formed at the bottom of the corresponding side of the upper beam. This pivot groove is a constricted groove with openings at both ends on the side of the upper beam. During assembly, the side cover plate slides into the constricted groove from one end using the pivot, thus pivotally connecting to the upper beam. If necessary, the side cover plate can be rotated open to maintain and adjust other mechanisms on the upper beam.

[0004] However, the existing curtains simply pivot the top of the side cover to the corresponding top side of the upper beam, lacking an effective locking structure. Under external forces (such as wind), they may rotate and sway, easily generating noise. Furthermore, assembling the side cover requires inserting its pivot into the corresponding pivot groove from one end of the upper beam. It would be more suitable to assemble the side cover on the upper beam first, and then assemble the upper beam to the window frame. After the upper beam is assembled to the window frame, there is no extra space at either end, making it impossible to disassemble or reassemble the side cover, which is detrimental to subsequent maintenance and replacement. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model embodiment is to provide a curtain side cover installation structure that can facilitate the installation of the side cover and effectively lock the side cover onto the upper beam.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present utility model embodiment first provides the following technical solution: a curtain side cover installation structure, including: an upper beam cut from a profile to a predetermined length and a side cover plate assembled on one side of the upper beam and not shorter than the upper beam. The side of the upper beam near the top has a hook groove with a slot, the bottom edge of the slot being higher than the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the hook groove. The top of the inner side wall of the side cover plate has a hook correspondingly formed, and the bottom also has an elastic arm correspondingly formed. The hook is inserted into the hook groove through the slot and hooks with the side wall of the hook groove located below the slot. The thickness of the part of the hook located in the hook groove is less than the width of the hook groove. The elastic arm extends to the bottom surface of the upper beam and abuts against the bottom surface to restrict the side cover plate from moving upward.

[0007] Furthermore, the hook groove extends through the upper beam along its length, and the length of the hook along the upper beam is not less than the length of the hook groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the hook includes a connecting arm protruding from the inner wall of the side cover plate and a hook portion formed by bending downward from the end of the connecting arm. The hook portion is hooked and engaged with the side wall of the groove, and the height of the hook portion is less than the height of the groove opening.

[0009] Furthermore, a downwardly protruding rib is formed at the junction of the bottom surface of the upper beam and the side surface, and a barb is formed at the end of the elastic arm to engage with the rib.

[0010] Furthermore, a chamfer is formed at the corner of the rib facing the side cover plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the inner wall of the side cover plate is provided with a boss extending along the length of the side cover plate at a height higher than the bottom surface of the upper beam. The elastic arm includes a vertical elastic arm extending downward from the bottom of the side wall of the boss on the side near the upper beam, and a transverse elastic arm extending from the bottom end of the vertical elastic arm and correspondingly extending below the bottom surface of the upper beam and abutting against the bottom surface.

[0012] Furthermore, the side cover plate includes a main body and two end caps assembled at the two ends along the length of the main body. The bottom edge of the main body is lower than the bottom surface of the upper beam, and the bottom edge is also bent toward the upper beam to form a bottom edge.

[0013] Furthermore, the inner sidewall of the end cap has a corresponding protruding insert, and both ends of the main body are respectively provided with slots for the insert to be inserted and fixed.

[0014] Furthermore, the boss is formed on the inner sidewall of the motherboard body and is the same length as the motherboard body. The groove includes a central groove formed by a through hole that penetrates the boss in the length direction of the boss. The insert includes central inserts that are respectively embedded in the central groove.

[0015] Furthermore, the inner sidewall of the motherboard body near the bottom edge is also provided with a stop groove that forms an end opening on the end face of the motherboard body and a top opening on the side facing the boss. The groove also includes an upper groove formed by the space between the hook and the boss and a lower groove formed by the space between the boss and the stop groove. The insert also includes an upper insert and a lower insert that are respectively embedded in the upper groove and the lower groove.

[0016] After adopting the above technical solution, the present utility model embodiment has at least the following beneficial effects: The present utility model embodiment uses a hook located at the top of the inner wall of the side cover plate to hook into the hook groove at the top of the side of the upper beam, and uses the elastic locking arm on the inner wall of the side cover plate to cooperate with the bottom surface of the upper beam to lock the side cover plate. The structure is simple. The hook groove is a slot provided on the side of the upper beam for the hook to enter and exit, which facilitates the subsequent disassembly and assembly of the side cover plate. After assembly, it can also effectively lock the side cover plate to avoid unnecessary rotation and noise during the daily use of the curtain. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following illustrative embodiments and descriptions are only used to explain the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Moreover, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other unless otherwise specified.

[0023] like Figures 1-5As shown, an optional embodiment of this utility model provides a curtain side cover installation structure, including: an upper beam 1 cut from a profile to a predetermined length, and a side cover 3 assembled on one side 10 of the upper beam 1 and having a length not shorter than the upper beam 1. The side 10 of the upper beam 1 has a hook groove 12 with a slot 120 formed near the top, the bottom edge of the slot 120 being higher than the bottom wall 122 of the inner cavity of the hook groove 12; the inner side wall 3 of the side cover 3... A hook 32 is formed at the top and an elastic arm 34 is formed at the bottom. The hook 32 is inserted into the hook groove 12 through the slot 120 and hooks and engages with the side wall 124 of the hook groove 12 located below the slot 120. The thickness of the part of the hook 32 located in the hook groove 12 is less than the width of the hook groove 12. The elastic arm 34 extends to the bottom surface 14 of the upper beam 1 and abuts against the bottom surface 14 to restrict the upward movement of the side cover plate 3.

[0024] The curtain side cover installation structure provided in this embodiment assembles the side cover 3 onto the upper beam 1 in the following manner: First, the hook 32 is inserted into the hook groove 12 through the slot 120 and hooks with the side wall 124 of the hook groove 12 located below the slot 120; then, the side cover 3 is rotated around the hooking part, and the elastic locking arm 34 extends to the bottom surface 14 of the upper beam 1 and abuts against the bottom surface 14 to restrict the upward movement of the side cover 3, thereby effectively fixing the side cover 3. When it is necessary to remove the side cover 3, simply apply a little force to pry the side cover 3 outward so that the elastic locking arm 34 is disengaged from the bottom surface 14 of the upper beam, and then move the side cover 3 upward so that the hook 32 is disengaged from the side wall 124 of the groove, and then move the side cover 3 outward so that the hook 32 is removed from the hook groove 12 to complete the disassembly.

[0025] This utility model embodiment uses a hook 32 located at the top of the inner wall 30 of the side cover plate 3 to hook into the hook groove 12 at the top of the side 10 of the upper beam 1. The side cover plate 3 is locked by the elastic locking arm 34 on the inner wall of the side cover plate 3 cooperating with the bottom surface 14 of the upper beam. The structure is simple. The hook groove 12 is a slot 120 provided on the side of the upper beam 1 for the hook 32 to enter and exit, which facilitates the subsequent disassembly and assembly of the side cover plate 3. After assembly, it can also effectively lock the side cover plate 3 to prevent unnecessary rotation and noise during the daily use of the curtain.

[0026] In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the hook groove 12 penetrates the upper beam 1 along its length, and the length of the hook 32 along the length of the upper beam 1 is not less than the length of the hook groove 12. This embodiment, by limiting the length of the hook groove 12, facilitates the simultaneous forming of the hook groove 12 during profile manufacturing, eliminating the need for subsequent secondary processing. The fact that the length of the hook 32 is not less than the length of the hook groove 12 makes the hook-and-hook engagement between the hook 32 and the hook groove 12 more stable, less prone to loosening, and facilitates adjustment of the position of the side cover plate 3 along its length. It is understood that the hook groove 12 can also be formed by secondary processing at a predetermined local position on the side 10 of the upper beam 1, and the length of the hook 32 along the length of the upper beam 1 can be less than the length of the hook groove 12, thereby facilitating the insertion of the hook 32 into the hook groove 12 and allowing for appropriate adjustment space along its length.

[0027] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the hook 32 includes a connecting arm 320 protruding from the inner sidewall 30 of the side cover plate 3 and a hook portion 322 formed by bending downward from the end of the connecting arm 320. The hook portion 322 is hooked and engaged with the sidewall 124 of the groove, and the height of the hook portion 322 is less than the height of the groove opening 120. This embodiment defines a specific structural form of the hook 32, which is generally horizontally L-shaped, simple in structure, and easy to process.

[0028] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-3 and Figure 5 As shown, a downwardly protruding rib 16 is formed at the junction of the bottom surface 14 of the upper beam 1 and the side surface 10. The end of the elastic locking arm 34 forms a barb 340 that hooks and engages with the rib 16. In this embodiment, by providing a rib 16 on the bottom surface 14 of the upper beam and forming a barb 340 at the end of the elastic locking arm 34, and by having the barb 340 hook and engage with the rib 16, the side cover plate 3 can be locked more securely. When disassembling, only a slight increase in force is needed to pry the side cover plate 3 outward, which will disengage the barb 340 from the rib 16.

[0029] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the rib 16 has a chamfer 160 at the corner facing the side cover plate 3. In this embodiment, by forming a chamfer 160 at the corner of the rib 16, the hook 340 is guided to slide along the chamfer 160 during the assembly of the side cover plate 3, so as to cause the elastic locking arm 34 to undergo elastic deformation, thereby allowing the hook 340 to pass smoothly through the rib 16 and enter below the bottom surface of the upper beam 1.

[0030] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-3 and Figure 5 As shown, the inner wall 30 of the side cover plate 3 has a boss 36 extending along the length of the side cover plate 3 at a height higher than the bottom surface 14 of the upper beam 1. The elastic locking arm 34 includes a vertical elastic arm 341 extending downward from the bottom of the side wall of the boss 36 on the side near the upper beam 1, and a transverse elastic arm 343 extending from the bottom end of the vertical elastic arm 341 and correspondingly extending below the bottom surface 14 of the upper beam 1 and abutting against the bottom surface 1. In this embodiment, by forming a boss 36 on the inner wall 30 of the side cover plate 3, and the elastic locking arm 34 extending from the boss 36 and having a vertical elastic arm 341 and a transverse elastic arm 343, it has good elasticity, and there is sufficient space between the vertical elastic arm 341 and the inner wall 30 of the side cover plate 3 to facilitate the elastic deformation of the elastic locking arm 34. Correspondingly, the barb 340 is formed at the end of the transverse elastic arm 343.

[0031] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the side cover plate 3 includes a main body 37 and end caps 39 assembled at both ends along the length of the main body 37. The bottom edge of the main body 37 is lower than the bottom surface 14 of the upper beam 1, and the bottom edge is bent towards the upper beam 1 to form a bottom edge 38. In this embodiment, the side cover plate 3 is divided into a main body 37 and end caps 39. The main body 37 can be easily manufactured using profiles with corresponding cross-sectional shapes (e.g., using extrusion molding). The end caps 39 correspondingly close both ends of the main body 37, and the bottom edge 38 correspondingly covers the bottom of the upper beam 1 and the top of the curtain (not shown) assembled on the upper beam 1, leaving only a channel for the curtain to rise and fall, which can improve the overall aesthetics.

[0032] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the inner sidewall of the end cap 39 has a corresponding protruding insert 390, and both ends of the main body 37 are respectively provided with slots 370 for the insert 390 to be inserted and fixed. This embodiment limits the assembly of the end cap 39 by inserting and mating the insert 390 with the slot 370, which results in a stable connection and convenient assembly and disassembly.

[0033] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the boss 36 is formed on the inner sidewall of the main board body 37 and is the same length as the main board body 37. The groove 370 includes a central groove 3701 formed by a through hole penetrating the boss 36 along its length. The insert 390 includes central inserts 3901 that are respectively embedded in the central groove 3701. In this embodiment, the boss 36 is designed as a hollow structure with a through hole, which can reduce material usage and lower costs. Moreover, the through hole can be used to form the central groove 3701 to cooperate with the central inserts 3901 on the end cover 39 to achieve the assembly of the end cover 39.

[0034] In one optional embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the inner sidewall of the main board body 37 near the bottom edge is further provided with a stop groove 35, which forms an end opening on the end face of the main board body 37 and a top opening on the side facing the boss. The groove 37 also includes an upper groove 3702 formed by the space between the hook 32 and the boss 36 and a lower groove 3703 formed by the space between the boss 36 and the stop groove 35. The insert body 390 also includes an upper insert body 3902 and a lower insert body 3903 that are respectively embedded in the upper groove 3702 and the lower groove 3703. In this embodiment, by forming an upper groove 3702 and a lower groove 3703 above and below the boss 36, respectively, and providing an upper insert body 3902 and a lower insert body 3903 on the end cover 39 to achieve the insertion fit, the end cover 39 can be assembled to the end of the main board body 37 more stably.

[0035] The embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many variations under the guidance of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims. All of these variations fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
