DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring to FIG. 1, which shows a combination method for C linking plates, 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, wherein the surface 11 can be a rough surface or a smooth surface, and the C pocket 12 and the J post 13 are located on two sides underneath the surface 11. Moreover, a cavity 14 is formed between the C pocket 11 and the J post 13.
In the embodiment, two of the C linking plates 10 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. Moreover, fixing members or adhesive material (not drawn in the embodiment) 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 FIG. 2 and according to the invention, 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. An open angle defined by the included angle between a C pocket and a surface of a C linking plate can be further selected to be either 0, 45, 90, 135 or 180 degrees, and alteration in the configuration of the open angles can be implemented according to the building surface or frame surface.
Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, which show schematic views of sets of combination plates attached to a beam-column, wherein when the set 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 set of 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.
It is of course to be understood that the embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention and that a wide variety of modifications thereto may be effected by persons skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention as set forth in the following claims.
