Description

Technical area

[0001] The present utility model relates to the field of assembling cladding panels and, in particular, relates to a cladding panel click system, an assembly component and an assembly structure. State of the art

[0002] Cladding panels (such as flooring, wall coverings, etc.) are typically attached to the supporting structure using click systems to increase the installation strength of the cladding panels. The traditional installation process for cladding panels is usually as follows: after one side of the cladding panel is clicked into an already installed click, another click is installed on the other side of the cladding panel to fix the cladding panel between the two clicks. This means that the cladding panels can only be installed consecutively in a specific horizontal direction, and the process is cumbersome, which affects installation efficiency.

[0003] Even in the current installation process of cladding panels, the installation of the cladding panels is carried out using click systems (i.e., after all the clicks have been previously mounted on the support structure, one side of the cladding panel is clicked into one click, and then the other side of the cladding panel is pressed, so that the other side of the cladding panel is pressed into another click). The two clicks in this type are usually arranged parallel to each other and fix the cladding panel in a clamping manner. Therefore, when the other side of the cladding panel is pressed in, the click against which one side of the cladding panel rests is pushed outward, and at the same time, the click on the other side of the cladding panel is also pushed outward, which complicates installation and may impair the clamping effect of the two clicks. Content of the utility model

[0004] The objective of this utility model is to provide a cladding panel click system, a mounting component, and a mounting structure. This cladding panel click system, this mounting component, and this mounting structure can increase the convenience of cladding panel installation while simultaneously ensuring the installation strength of the cladding panels.

[0005] The technical solutions applied by the present utility model to solve the above-mentioned problems are as follows.

[0006] A cladding panel click system comprising: a fixing plate used to fix the click system to the supporting structure; and a plurality of first click plates which are fixed to the fixing plate and are elastically deformable, wherein the individual first click plates are arranged in a straight line; wherein the first click plates and the fixing plate are arranged either obliquely or perpendicularly to one another, first click points are provided at upper ends of the first click plates, when the first click plates are arranged obliquely to the fixing plate, the pressing direction of the first click points is perpendicular to the fixing plate, and when the first click plates are arranged perpendicular to the fixing plate, the pressing direction of the first click points is parallel to the fixing plate.

[0007] As a further improvement of the above-mentioned technical solution, the cladding panel click system further comprises a plurality of second click plates. The second click plates are attached to the fixing plate and are elastically deformable. The individual second click plates are arranged in a straight line. The second click plates and the fixing plate are arranged either obliquely or perpendicularly to each other. Second click points are provided at the upper ends of the second click plates. When the second click plates are arranged obliquely to the fixing plate, the pressing direction of the second click points is perpendicular to the fixing plate. When the second click plates are arranged perpendicularly to the fixing plate, the pressing direction of the second click points is parallel to the fixing plate.

[0009] As a further improvement of the above-mentioned technical solution, the first click plates and the second click plates are arranged offset and at least one second click plate is located between two adjacent first click plates.

[0010] As a further improvement of the above-mentioned technical solution, a plurality of mounting holes are provided for the passage of screws on the fixing plate, and the mounting holes have the shape of an inverted truncated cone.

[0011] The present utility model also provides an assembly component based on the cladding panel click system according to one of the above-mentioned technical solutions, comprising: a plurality of click systems, wherein the structure of the click systems is identical to the structure of the cladding panel click system according to one of the above-mentioned technical solutions, the individual click systems are located on the same horizontal straight line and there is a receiving space for the placement of the cladding panels between adjacent click systems; wherein the adjacent first click points and second click points or two adjacent first click points or two adjacent second click points between adjacent click systems have opposite contact pressure directions.

This reduces the difficulty of inserting the cladding panel between two click systems, thus increasing the convenience of cladding panel installation while ensuring the installation strength of the cladding panel. (2) The mountable fixing of the fixing plate and the arrangement of the click systems on it, combined with the elastic deformation function of the click sheets, allow the click systems to be pre-mounted on the support structure and then the cladding panel to be installed. This allows various assembly processes to be performed in a single operation, reducing the risk of compromising the accuracy of the operation due to the multiple operations in a single assembly process, and increasing the efficiency of the assembly process.

Examples of implementation

[0019] The present utility model is described in more detail below with the aid of the attached figures and exemplary embodiments. The following exemplary embodiments serve to explain the utility model, but the utility model is not limited to the following exemplary embodiments. Example 1

[0020] In relation to Fig. 1 to Fig. 6, in this exemplary embodiment, a cladding panel click system comprises a fixing plate 11 and two first click plates 2. The fixing plate 11 serves to fix the click system to the support structure. The first click plates 2 are attached to the fixing plate 11 and are elastically deformable. The first click plates 2 are arranged in a straight line. The first click plates 2 and the fixing plate 11 are arranged either diagonally or perpendicularly to one another. First click points 21 are provided at the upper ends of the first click plates 2. If the first click plates 2 are arranged diagonally to the fixing plate 11, the pressing direction of the first click points 21 is perpendicular to the fixing plate 11. If the first click plates 2 are arranged perpendicularly to the fixing plate 11, the pressing direction of the first click points 21 is parallel to the fixing plate 11.

[0021] During use, the click system is mounted on the support structure via the fixing plate 11. Then, depending on the width of the underside of the cladding panel 4, another click system is mounted on the support structure. After that, the click systems are fully assembled on the same support structure in this manner, and then the click systems are mounted on the parallel support structures. The adjacent click systems on the adjacent support structures are positioned in a straight line (as shown in Fig. 9). Subsequently, the cladding panel 4 is tilted so that one side of the cladding panel 4 is inserted between the first click plates and the fixing plate 11 of one click system and pressed against the click system by the first click points 21. Finally, the other side of the cladding panel 4 is pressed downwards so that the cladding panel 4 rests against the first click plates 2 of the adjacent other click system. After the elastic deformation of the first click plates 2, the other side of the cladding panel 4 is pressed against the other click system, so that the assembly of the cladding panel 4 to a plurality of support structures is achieved through the cooperation of the two adjacent click systems.

[0022] In relation to Fig. 1, a plurality of mounting holes 12 are provided on the fixing plate 11 for the passage of screws. The mounting holes 12 have the shape of an inverted truncated cone and increase the convenience of mounting the fixing plate 11 to the supporting structure.

[0023] In this embodiment, corner chamfer structures 13 are provided at the four corners of the fixing plate 11 and reduce the risk of scratches by the fixing plate 11 during the installation of the cladding panel 4.

[0024] In relation to Fig. 3 to Fig. 6, the click system further comprises a plurality of second click plates 3. The second click plates 3 are attached to the fixing plate 11 and are elastically deformable. The individual second click plates 3 are arranged in a straight line. The second click plates 3 and the fixing plate 11 are arranged either diagonally or perpendicularly to one another. Second click points 31 are provided at the upper ends of the second click plates 3. If the second click plates 3 are arranged diagonally to the fixing plate 11, the pressing direction of the second click points 31 is perpendicular to the fixing plate 11. If the second click plates 3 are arranged perpendicular to the fixing plate 11, the pressing direction of the second click points 31 is parallel to the fixing plate 11.By arranging the first click plates 2 and the second click plates 3 together on the fixing plate 11, the number of click systems mounted and the number of operations can be reduced, while ensuring the accuracy of the mounting positions between the click systems.

[0025] In this embodiment, there are three possible arrangements for the combination between the first click plates 2 and the second click plates 3 on the click system, namely: (1) The first click plates 2 and the fixing plate 11 are arranged perpendicular to each other, the second click plates 3 and the fixing plate 11 are arranged obliquely to each other, and the pressing directions of the first click points 21 and the second click points 31 are perpendicular to each other (as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 shown); (2) Both the first click plates 2 and the second click plates 3 are arranged obliquely to the fixing plate 11, and the pressing directions of the first click points 21 and the second click points 31 are parallel and in the same direction (as in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 shown); (3) Both the first click plates 2 and the second click plates 3 are arranged perpendicular to the fixing plate 11, and the pressing directions of the first click points 21 and the second click points 31 are on the same horizontal plane and are opposite (as shown in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 shown).

[0026] In this embodiment, the first click plates 2 and the second click plates 3 are arranged offset and at least one second click plate 3 lies between two adjacent first click plates 2, which ensures the implementation of the elastic deformation of the first click plates 2 and the second click plates 3.

[0027] In this embodiment, both the first click points 21 and the second click points 31 are planar with a curved surface, which reduces the difficulty of manufacturing the first click points 21 on the first click sheets 2 and the second click points 31 on the second click sheets 3. Example 2

[0028] In relation to Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, an assembly component for cladding panels in this exemplary embodiment comprises a plurality of click systems. The structure of the click systems is identical to the structure of the cladding panel click system in exemplary embodiment 1. The individual click systems lie on the same horizontal line, and between adjacent click systems there is a receiving space 14 for the placement of the cladding panel 4. The adjacent first click points 21 and second click points 31, or two adjacent first click points 21 or two adjacent second click points 31 between adjacent click systems, have opposite pressing directions.By restricting the cladding panel 4 by the first click points 21 and the second click points 31 either in the direction perpendicular to the fixing plate 11 or in the direction parallel to the fixing plate 11, the fixing strength of the cladding panel 4 is ensured and at the same time the convenience of lifting and disassembling from the side of the cladding panel 4 on which the second click plates 3 are located is enabled.

[0029] In relation to Fig. 7, the connection between two adjacent click systems is achieved by a connecting plate 15. Both ends of the connecting plate 15 are respectively attached to the fixing plates 11 of the two click systems, which increases the accuracy and efficiency of the assembly of the click systems to the supporting structure. Example 3

[0030] In relation to Fig. 9 to Fig. 12, a mounting structure for trim panels in this embodiment comprises a mounting member and trim panels 4. The structure of the mounting member is identical to the structure of the mounting member in Embodiment 2. On both end surfaces of the trim panels 4, first grooves 41 and second grooves 42 are provided, respectively, which are compatible with the first click points 21 or the second click points 31. Extension pieces 51 are provided at upper ends of one end of the trim panels 4, and receiving grooves 52 are provided at upper ends of the other ends of the trim panels 4, which are compatible with the extension pieces 51. The horizontally adjacent end surfaces of the extension pieces 51 and the receiving grooves 52 have the shape of a slope 53.Thereby, after the trim panel 4 is mounted, due to the compatible arrangement of the extension parts 51 and the receiving grooves 52 on the adjacent trim panels 4, the difficulty of recognizing the click systems through the gap (ie the gap used to insert a tool to hang the trim panel 4 when dismantling the trim panel 4) between the adjacent trim panels 4 is increased, so that the convenience of dismantling the trim panel 4 and at the same time the visual effect after mounting the trim panel 4 is improved.

[0031] In relation to Fig. 10, the cross-section of the first grooves is square, and the cross-section of the second grooves is semicircular, which ensures stability during assembly between the cladding panel 4 and the click system and at the same time ensures smoothness during disassembly between the two.

[0032] In relation to Fig. 10 to Fig. 12, inclined structures 6 are provided at the lower ends of the cladding panels 4. The guiding effect of the inclined structures 6 increases the convenience and smoothness of the assembly and disassembly of the cladding panel 4 and simultaneously reduces the risk of damage to the second click sheets 3 due to rigid compression during assembly.

[0033] The content described above in this description is merely an exemplary explanation of the present utility model. Persons from the technical field to which the utility model belongs may modify, supplement, or replace the described specific embodiments with similar methods in various ways. As long as it does not deviate from the content of the description of the utility model or exceed the scope defined in the patent claims, it falls within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
