Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The invention relative to a building connector which is specially refers to a claw used on glass wall.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Glass curtain wall as building surface has currently been widely used worldwide.

[0003] The Chinese Patent 98233290.4 provides "a glass wall consists of multiple vertical glass planes formed as a matrix and their supporting truss on the back of the vertical glasses. The supporting frame has multiple horizontal trusses batter brace adjacent glasses. Each horizontal truss is connected through trusses dragged horizontally and vertically. The nose of the truss has a stainless 4 jaws connector, each comer of the glass has an installation hole to be connected to the 4 jaws connector."

[0004] The Chinese Patent 98233291.2 provides "a glass wall consists of multiple vertical glass planes formed as a matrix and their supporting cables are set on the back of the vertical glasses. Supporting cables have multiple axle batter brace adjacent glasses. The supporting axle has fasten parts, each supporting axle is connected through cables. On the head of the supporting cables consists of a four clips connector, each comer of a glass plane has a cone-shaped hole in order to connect the for clips connector."

[0005] The mentioned patents both convert four pieces of glass planes to form a glass wall through a cross-clip then install the glass wall outsider a building. In fact, the present market is occupant by this type of "tip connected glass wall".

[0006] However, when consider the production tolerance before installation, the installation convenience, the anti-seismic ability and the anti-ballistic ability. The simply four clips connector is unable to fulfill these requirements.

[0007] The Chinese patent 98249186.7 provides clip adjustable structure used in tip contacted glass wall, the mentioned structure is "a connector used between glass plane and steel structure in the glass wall. The contact in the structure between the clip, the protruded sphere piece and the hollowed sphere piece is spherical contact. The structure also consists of hoist adjustable structure which reduce the production requirement of glass plane and the precision requirement of connector, it as well simplify the installation of glass wall."

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0008] The purpose of this invention is to provide a brand new structure, an adjustable structure and a rational designed tip supported glass wall clip.

[0009] To fulfill the mentioned purposes, the technical structure of this invention shown as fellow:

A point-joint type mounting claw for glass curtain wall claw, which consists of clip arm and clip tip installed on the head of the said clip arm, the said clip tip is actively sets on the clip arm;

The optimal method of this invention, the said clip tip is active installed to the clip arm through screw;

The tip of the said clip arm has external screw thread; the clip tip has internal crew thread, the clip tip is active screws to the clip arm through crew threads;

The tip of the said clip arm has internal screw thread, the clip tip has external screw thread, the clip is active screws to the clip arm through crew threads;

Chip tips on one platform have cave shaped installation holes, and on the other platform, clip tips have circular installation holes;

The said clip tip with cave shaped installation hole is set under the clip tip with circular installation hole;

Fasten screw nut is set between the said clip tip and the said clip arm;

The said clip arm is "I" shape;

The said clip arm is "X" shape;

When the above mentioned structure applied, during implementation, each part can adjust the clip according to the relative position to catch a convenient implementation method. When the invention clip is applied, angles between glass planes are adjustable to form a curve or right angle glass walls.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0010] Drawings form and only form a part of present specification without any restrictions to present invention.

Fig. 1 is the main Fig. of one of the implementation method of this invention;

Fig. 2 is the right side view of the Fig. 1;

Fig. 3 is the bottom view of the Fig.1;

Fig. 4 is the main Fig. of another implementation method of this invention.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0011] Below is a detailed implementation method together with drawings which forms and only forms a part of present specification without any restrictions to the present invention.

[0012] As shown in Fig. 1 to 3, a tip-supported glass wall clip consists of clip arm 1 and 4 different clip tip 2 installed on four corresponding heads of clip arm 1; the clip arm forms a "I" shape, the clip arm 1 has four heads and four tips, each head has external screw threads and each tip 2 has internal screw threads; The clip tip 2 is actively fasten on the clip arm 1 through threads; between the clip tip 2 and the clip arm 1 is the fasten screw nut 3. When loose the fasten screw nut 3, the active clip tip 2 can rotates 360 degree as well can do a relative parallel shift when used the clip arm 1 as axle. This guarantees the convenience implementation as well relative adjustment to each corresponding parts through the invention clips during installation.

[0013] Fig. 4 shown another tip supported glass wall clip, which consists of clip arm 1 and four different clip tip 2 installed on four different head of the said clip arm 1; clip arm 1 forms an "X" shape, four different heads of the clip arm 1 have internal screw threads; four different clip tip 2 have external screw threads, the tip 2 is active screwed to the clip arm 1 through screw threads; fasten screw nut 3 is set between the clip tip 2 and the clip arm 1. When loose the fasten screw nut 3, the active clip tip 2 can rotates 360 degree as well can do a relative parallel shift when using the clip arm as axle. This guarantees the convenience implementation as well relative adjustment to each corresponding parts through the invention clips during installation.

[0014] Meanwhile, on the bottom, there are two clip tips 2 on the same platform have cave shaped installation holes 4, the bottom two clip tip 2 support the weight of glass plane, the cave shaped installation hole 4 guarantees the stable and reliable of the support; on the top, there are two tips 2 on the same platform have circular installation holes 5, the bottom two clip tip 2 have circular installation hole, therefore, it has positional purpose rather than fasten purpose, that is, it only wind resistance without weight support ability. Flexibility connection forms between glasses to ease concentration of glass force as well automatically replace the shift cause by wind load, snow load, temperature different as well earth quake, which then increase the anti-seismic ability and anti-damage ability.

[0015] Above is the optimal implementation of present invention, it will be apparent that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the claims.
