Building exterior wall device

The invention relates to a building external wall device, in particular to a building external wall device which can adjust the shading effect according to the corresponding change of temperature.

During the daytime, the outside temperature of the building will increase the indoor temperature due to the sun, which will make people feel sultry and uncomfortable. As the time approaches noon, the temperature rise caused by sunshine will become more and more serious. In this regard, generally only an air conditioner can be installed to lower the temperature, so that the indoor temperature is maintained at the set temperature. However, the use of air conditioners has become one of the indirect causes of the earth's climate change, which will form a vicious circle, which may cause irreversible circumstances in the environment.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem of rising room temperature caused by sun exposure, curtains or curtains are usually added to the doors and windows. Generally, the curtain cannot change the shading position of the curtain according to the change of the sun exposure angle. Therefore, the shading effect is limited. Doors and windows are completely covered, and there are problems with lighting and ventilation.

In a specific embodiment, the first elastic member is a memory spring, and/or the second elastic member is a non-memory spring. In an embodiment, the first elastic member is a contraction type memory spring.

In a specific embodiment, the heat transfer component further includes a heat dissipation element that contacts the heat dissipation element and surrounds the first elastic element. In one embodiment, the heat sink is a metal tube or a fin radiator.

In a specific embodiment, the shading member is a grid plate.

In a specific embodiment, the body includes a wind deflector hanging downward from the pivot.

In a specific embodiment, the heat transfer component is a gravity heat pipe.

In a specific embodiment, the heat transfer assembly further includes a hose connecting and communicating the heat release element and the heat absorption element.

In a specific embodiment, there are a plurality of shielding units arranged in sequence between the two columns.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, in the two shielding units adjacent to each other, the actuating components are respectively disposed on the two upright posts in a staggered manner.

In a specific embodiment, the shielding unit further includes an electric control unit driven by electric power to control the shading member.

In a specific embodiment, the aforementioned electric control unit further includes: a control module for converting the control command into a control signal and a motor electrically connected to the control module and used for driving the body according to the control signal.

The element is strained (deformed) due to the increase in thermal energy. Based on the deformation, the first elastic element generates power to drive the shading element of the body. In summary, the present invention drives the shading element through the deformation caused by the temperature change of the first elastic element And changing the swing angle of the shading member can effectively improve the shading angle to achieve the best shading effect.

Further, the fixing unit 1 of the present invention also A plurality of columns 11 may be included, and the plurality of columns 11 are arranged in two-by-two intervals. Therefore, in addition to including a plurality of shielding units 2 between the two columns 11, a plurality of groups of columns 11 are combined to form an array concept, for example 10*10 or 15*20, etc., so that a plurality of shielding units 2 can be arranged in an array architecture. In the specific implementation, in the two shielding units 2 adjacent to each other, the respective actuating components 22 are respectively arranged on the upright columns 11 on the two sides in a staggered manner, so as to achieve better shading by covering the outer wall of the building effect.
