Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the field of construction materials technology, especially to an assembly column-beam connection component.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

With the maturation of technology, prefabricated construction has begun to emerge and has garnered widespread attention in the construction industry. Prefabricated construction refers to buildings assembled on-site using prefabricated components. The advantages of this type of construction include rapid construction, minimal susceptibility to weather conditions, labor savings, and improved construction quality.


The inventor disclosed a patent in a previously filed Chinese patent application, published as CN114250860A, for an invention patent that reveals a connection unit for prefabricated construction. This unit comprises a first tubular body, a second tubular body, and a connector for joining the first and second tubular bodies. The connector has multiple installation through-holes at both ends, and the first and second tubular bodies each feature multiple corresponding connecting apertures. The connector's ends are embedded within the first and second tubular bodies, aligning the installation through-holes with the connecting apertures. A bolt assembly sequentially passes through the connecting apertures on the first and second tubular bodies and the installation through-holes on the connector, thereby connecting the connector to the first and second tubular bodies.


However, the aforementioned patent has the following shortcomings: firstly, it can only achieve vertical component connections, and secondly, it exhibits relatively poor structural stability at the connection points.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The object of the present invention is to provide an assembly column-beam connection component. This assembly column-beam connection component enhances the structural strength and stability of the vertical connection between the overall vertical structure and the external vertical components when connecting to the front and right sidewalls and horizontal components externally.


To achieve the above object, the technical solution employed in the present invention is as follows: an assembly column-beam connection component includes a vertically-oriented connecting body for connecting to columns and a horizontally-oriented connecting body for connecting to beams. One end of the horizontally-oriented connecting body is connected to the vertically-oriented connecting body. The vertically-oriented connecting body includes a front sidewall, a left sidewall, a rear sidewall, and a right sidewall arranged in sequence. The left sidewall and rear sidewall have the same width, while the front sidewall and right sidewall have the same width, which is smaller than that of the left and rear sidewalls. The front sidewall connected to the left sidewall and the right sidewall connected to the rear sidewall are joined by a right-angled wall plate which is bent inward. Two horizontally-oriented connecting bodies are individually connected to the front sidewall or the right sidewall.


Each of the sidewalls is equipped with an inward concave portion extending along the length of the vertically-oriented connecting body in the vertical direction. The inward concave portions on the left and rear sidewalls are located near the junction of the left sidewall and rear sidewall, while the inward concave portions on the front and right sidewalls are positioned in their respective centers. Multiple installation through-holes for connecting to columns are provided on the various sidewalls of at least one end of the vertically-oriented connecting body, and they are located within the inward concave portions.


The improved aspects of the above technical solution are as follows:


In some embodiments, the inward concave portions are distributed along the length of the vertically-oriented connecting body.


In some embodiments, the horizontally-oriented connecting body is connected to the front sidewall or right sidewall of the vertically-oriented connecting body by welding.


In some embodiments, the horizontally-oriented connecting body can be any one of a steel pipe connector, an I-beam connector, or a C-channel connector.


In some embodiments, the installation through-holes are located at one end of the vertically-oriented connecting body, and the other end of the vertically-oriented connecting body has a horizontally-oriented connecting body connected to its front sidewall and right sidewall.


In some embodiments, two horizontally-oriented connecting bodies are connected in the middle region of the front sidewall and right sidewall of the vertically-oriented connecting body, and installation through-holes are provided at both ends of the vertically-oriented connecting body.


In some embodiments, the vertically-oriented connecting body with front sidewall, left sidewall, rear sidewall, and right sidewall is obtained through integral molding.


Through the application of the aforementioned technical solution, the present invention exhibits the following advantages when compared to existing technology:


The assembly column-beam connection component of the present invention achieves simultaneous connection of horizontal and vertical components. The vertically-oriented connecting body used for column connection includes sequentially arranged front sidewall, left sidewall, rear sidewall, and right sidewall. The connected left sidewall and rear sidewall have the same width, while the front sidewall and right sidewall have the same width, which is smaller than that of the left and rear sidewalls. The front sidewall connected to the left sidewall and the right sidewall connected to the rear sidewall are joined by an inwardly bent right-angled wall plate. Two horizontally-oriented connecting bodies are each connected to the front sidewall or right sidewall. Each sidewall features a concave portion extending along the length of the vertically-oriented connecting body in the vertical direction. The concave portions on the left and rear sidewalls are located near the junction of the left sidewall and rear sidewall. This design enhances the structural strength of the vertically-oriented connecting body itself and prevents positional misalignment between interconnected components when connecting to external vertical components with installation through-holes. This, in turn, improves stability and structural strength. Furthermore, when connecting to external vertical components, the concave portions provide an embedded region for the bolt heads, ensuring the flatness and smoothness of the external facade of the connection structure. This facilitates subsequent decorative construction. When connecting to external horizontal components on the front and right sidewalls, it further enhances the structural strength and stability of the overall connection between the vertically-oriented connecting body and the external vertical components.
