DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring to FIG. 1, which shows a combination for C linking plates of the present invention, in which a plurality of C linking plates 10 are primarily disposed on a building surface or frame surface 20, and each of the C linking plates 10 is provided with a surface 11, a C pocket 12 and a J post 13, for which an end of the C pocket and an end of the J post is provided with a first clasp protrusion 120 and a second clasp protrusion 130 respectively. The C pocket 12 and the J post 13 are located on two sides underneath the surface 11 and a cavity 14 is formed between the C pocket 12 and the J post 13. Moreover, the C pocket 12 can further be provided with a rough surface 17 as illustrated in FIG. 6, wherein the rough surface 17 produces maximum frictional force between the rough surface 17 and the building surface or frame surface 20, thereby preventing slippage when fixing the combination plates 10.
As illustrated in FIG. 1A and 1B, two of the C linking plates 10 (FIG. 1) are used and assembled to the building surface or frame surface 20, as depicted in the drawing, wherein the J post 13 underneath the front C linking plate 10 is fixedly secured in the C pocket 12 of the rear C linking plate 10. A gap 15 is formed between the first clasp protrusion 120 of the C pocket 12 and the second clasp protrusion 130 of the J post 13. When the first clasp protrusion 120 is clasped with the second clasp protrusion 130, the gap 15 provides room for clamping enhancement while strength is put backward against both the front and rear portion of
C linking plates 10. The first and second clasp protrusions 120 and 130 are a bit deformed due to the outcoming strength applied by securing the J post 13 into the C pocket 12 but the room provided by the gap 15 has not only overcome the problem of unexpected release of the C linking plates 10, to the contrary, the gap 15 strengthens the clamping between the C liking plates 10. Hence, mutual fitting between the first clasp protrusion 130 of the J post 13 and the second clasp protrusion 120 of the C pocket 12 is achieved thereto. Moreover, fixing members (not shown in the embodiment) or adhesive material 16 are used to fix the two C linking plates 10 to the building surface or frame surface 20, wherein the fixing members can be screws or nails, and the adhesive material can be a binding agent.
Accordingly, when the C linking plates 10 are fixed to the building surface or frame surface 20, then the C pockets 12 and the J posts 13 cause a height difference to form between the building surface or frame surface 20 and the surfaces 11, thereby enabling the cavities 14 formed between the C pockets 12 and the J posts 13 to form sealed chambers with the building surface or frame surface 20, and formation of the sealed chambers is used to further achieve the effectiveness of insulation against sound, temperature, dampness and moisture, and provide electric insulation.
Referring to FIGS. 2 and 7, wherein an open angle defined by the included angle between a C pocket 12′ and a surface of a C linking plate 10′ can be further selected from 0 to 180 degrees, and as depicted in the drawing, the open angle of a front C pocket 12′ of a front C linking plate 10′ is 0 degrees, while the open angle of a C pocket 12″ of a rear C linking plate 10″ is 45 degrees. Accordingly, when the front C linking plate 10′ uses a J post 13′ to fix to the rear C pocket 12″ of the rear C linking plate 10″, then an angular bend is presented between the front C linking plate 10′ and the rear C linking plate 10″, thereby enabling the front C linking plate 10′ and the rear C linking plate 10″ to be assembled to the non-planar building surface or frame surface 20, and thus providing such a combination of plates with more widespread application. It is understood that the aforementioned open angles are only embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the scope of the claims of the present invention, and alteration in the configuration of the open angles can be implemented according to the building surface or frame surface. In particular, in order to accommodate the building surfaces or frame surfaces 20, and correspond with a J Post 13′. In addition, a C pocket configuration can be selected from either a C form or a triangular form thereby enabling various configuration of combination depends on different kind of the building surface or frame surface 20.
The C pocket 12 is further provided with at least a first front opening 123 and a first side opening 124 formed on two ends thereof. The J post 13 is provided with at least a second front opening 133 and a second side opening 134 formed on two ends thereof. When assembling, the C linking plates 10 can be secured with each other either through the corresponding first and second side openings 124 and 134 vertically provided by the C pocket 12 and the J post 13 or through the corresponding first and second front openings 123 and 133 horizontally provided by the C pocket 12 and the J post 13 respectively, such that a plurality of C linking plates 10 can be secured with each other much faster by which is more sufficiently and more conveniently when assembling a plurality of C linking plates 10 onto a building surface or frame surface 20.
Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, which show schematic views of the present invention attached to a beam-column, wherein when the present invention is attached to a beam-column 30, a plurality of C linking plates 101 and C linking plates 102 are primarily used to circumsurround building surfaces or frame surfaces 31 of the peripheral outer sides of the beam-column 30 and are then fixed thereto. The plurality of C linking plates 101 and C linking plates 102 refer to the plurality of first C linking plates 101 with an open angle of the C pockets assuming 0 degrees and the plurality of second C linking plates 102 with an open angle of the C pockets assuming 90 degrees which circumsurround the building surfaces or frame surfaces 31 of the peripheral outer sides of the beam-column 30 and are combined in a spaced arrangement.
Referring together with FIG. 5, a first J post 131 on the first C linking plate 101 is fixed to a second C pocket 122 of the second C linking plate 102, and second J posts 132 of the second C linking plates 102 are then respectively fixed to first C pockets 121 of the first C linking plates 101, thus, the first J posts 131 and the second J posts 132 are used to combine with and be fixedly secured to the first C pockets 121 and the second C pockets 122 having different open angles, thereby enabling a plurality of the plurality of C linking plates 10 to be fixed to the peripheral outer sides of the building surfaces or frame surfaces 31 of the beam-column 30.
When a plurality of the C linking plates 10 have been fixed to the peripheral outer sides of the building surfaces or frame surfaces 31 of the beam-column 30, then a plurality of sealed chambers are defined between the plurality of C linking plates 10 and the building surfaces or frame surfaces 31. Accordingly, combination of the plurality of C linking plates 10 enables circumsurrounding the beam-column 30 and further achieve the effectiveness of insulation against sound, temperature, dampness and moisture, and provide electric insulation. In addition, the sealed chambers can be used as retaining spaces for power lines, thereby preventing the power lines from being exposed to the outside and affecting the outward appearance of a building.
Accordingly, a combination plates of the present invention uses a combination of a plurality of the C linking plates 10, which apart from having application on beam-columns of general building structures, can also be used to structurally combine the C linking plates 10 to form all types of wall surfaces, floors, or used for roofs, shipbuilding, containers, refrigerated containers, and so on. Moreover, the present invention achieves the effectiveness to insulate building structures from sound, temperature, dampness and moisture, and provides electric insulation.
