Description

Corner Joint Decorative Structure and its Construction Method

This invention relates to a corner-jointing decorative structure and its construction method, particularly a corner-jointing decorative structure and its construction method for rapid assembly.

Traditional decorative structures may involve applying cement to partition walls and then tiling them; or paving stone on the partition walls. Because these methods are quite complex and cannot be easily implemented, they require a lengthy construction period. Furthermore, the quality and durability of the finished structure are highly dependent on the contractor's experience, making it difficult to effectively ensure construction quality and minimize human interference.

Furthermore, in terms of subsequent maintenance, decorative structures completed using the above methods are difficult to repair in sections, often requiring the entire structure to be reconstructed, thus causing difficulties in subsequent maintenance. Moreover, the materials used are not recyclable, causing significant damage to the environment. This method allows for rapid assembly, produces no waste pollution, and allows for the recycling of materials, thus contributing to environmental protection and fulfilling social responsibility.

Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a novel decorative structure for internal corner joints and its construction method to eliminate or alleviate the above problems.

In view of this, the present invention proposes a decorative structure for internal corner joints and its construction method, which has the advantages of convenient construction, quick assembly, good tightness, no water seepage, aesthetics, environmental friendliness, or reduced human interference, and has excellent construction quality, durability or maintainability.

According to one aspect of the present invention, a corner-joining decorative structure is proposed, comprising a wall panel and a corner connector. The wall panel has a first joint and a second joint, and includes a plate, a plurality of first connecting plates, and a plurality of second connecting plates. The plurality of first connecting plates and the plurality of second connecting plates are respectively disposed on the plate, and the plurality of second connecting plates are respectively disposed between adjacent pairs of the plurality of first connecting plates. The corner connector includes a base, on which a first protrusion and a second protrusion are disposed. A connecting portion is provided between the base and the second protrusion. The first protrusion engages with the first joint of the wall panel, and the second protrusion engages with the first joint or the second joint of another wall panel.

In this invention, the height of the wall panel can be between 15 and 500 cm, for example, between 15 and 450 cm, between 15 and 400 cm, between 15 and 300 cm, or between 15 and 240 cm, but this invention is not limited to this and can be cut or joined by corner joints according to actual needs. Furthermore, in this invention, the width of the wall panel can be between 5 and 500 cm, for example, between 5 and 450 cm, between 5 and 400 cm, between 5 and 300 cm, between 5 and 240 cm, between 5 and 180 cm, between 5 and 120 cm, or between 5 and 80 cm, but this invention is not limited to these, and can be cut or joined by corner joints according to actual needs.

In this invention, the plate can be perpendicular to a plurality of first connecting plates and a plurality of second connecting plates, and the plurality of first connecting plates can be perpendicular to a plurality of second connecting plates.

In this invention, there may be a first distance between two adjacent plates in the plurality of first connecting plates. The first distance may be between 1 cm and 100 cm, for example, between 1 cm and 100 cm, between 3 cm and 80 cm, between 5 cm and 50 cm, between 5 cm and 40 cm, between 5 cm and 20 cm, approximately 5 cm, approximately 10 cm, approximately 15 cm, or approximately 20 cm.

In this invention, there may be a second distance between two adjacent plates in the plurality of second connecting plates, the second distance being between 1 cm and 50 cm, for example, between 5 cm and 40 cm, between 5 cm and 30 cm, between 10 cm and 30 cm, approximately 5 cm, approximately 10 cm, approximately 15 cm, approximately 20 cm, or approximately 30 cm.

In this invention, a plurality of first connecting plates may each include a first sub-plate and a second sub-plate. A third distance may exist between the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate, which may be between 1 cm and 20 cm, for example, between 1 cm and 10 cm, between 1 cm and 5 cm, between 5 cm and 20 cm, between 10 cm and 20 cm, approximately 1 cm, approximately 3 cm, or approximately 5 cm. Furthermore, the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate may each have a top surface and a bottom surface, the width of which may differ from the width of the bottom surface. The width of the top surface may be less than the width of the bottom surface. Here, the third distance refers to the minimum distance between the bottom of the first sub-plate and the bottom of the second sub-plate.

In this invention, the first protrusion and the second protrusion of the corner connector can form a groove, and the first joint of the wall panel and the first joint or the second joint of another wall panel can be disposed in the groove.

In this invention, the inside corner connector may be provided with a first through hole, a first protrusion may be provided between the first through hole and a second protrusion, and a screw may pass through the first through hole to fix the inside corner connector to the partition wall.

In this invention, the side of the first protrusion away from the base may have a first recess, and the side of the second protrusion away from the base may have a second recess, with the first recess corresponding to the second recess.

In this invention, the wall panel material may be ABS resin (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer) or polypropylene polymer (PP), metal material or cement board, etc., but this invention is not limited to these. In addition, the corner joint material may be a metal material, such as aluminum.

According to another viewpoint of the present invention, a construction method for a corner-joining decorative structure is proposed, comprising the following steps: providing a wall panel and a corner connector, wherein the wall panel has a first joint and a second joint and includes a plate, a plurality of first connecting plates and a plurality of second connecting plates, the plurality of first connecting plates and the plurality of second connecting plates being respectively disposed on the plate, and the plurality of second connecting plates being respectively disposed between adjacent pairs of the plurality of first connecting plates, and the corner connector including a base, on which a first protrusion and a second protrusion are disposed, and a connecting portion is provided between the base and the second protrusion; and joining the first protrusion to the first joint of the wall panel, and joining the second protrusion to the first joint or the second joint of another wall panel to form a corner-joining decorative structure.

In this invention, before joining the wall panel to the corner connector, a step of cutting the wall panel in a direction parallel to the plurality of first connecting plates or the plurality of second connecting plates may be included. By appropriately cutting the wall panel, the first connecting plate, or the second connecting plate, the size of the wall panel can be further adjusted according to the needs of the construction environment.
