Equatorial Flexible Support Structure for Plexiglass Detectors

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible equator supporting structure of an organic glass detector. The structure comprises supporting pull rods, annular channel steel, rib plates, a lower rubber gasket, a side rubber gasket and an upper rubber gasket. The annular channel steel comprises multiple sections of arc channel steel bodies, the two ends of each arc channel steel body are provided with steel plates in a welded mode, the steel plates of adjacent arc channel steel bodies are connected through bolts and nuts, the rib plates are welded to the connection portions of the steel plates and the arc channel steel bodies, and a groove-shaped opening of the annular channel steel is embedded in an equator boss on an organic glass ball; the upper rubber gasket and the lower rubber gasket are arranged on the upper matched face and the lower matched face of the equator boss and the annular channel steel respectively, and the side matched face of the equator boss and the annular channel steel is provided with the side rubber gasket, the annular channel steel is evenly connected with the supporting pull rods, and included angles of the supporting pull rods and the horizontal plane are acute angles and are equal. By means of the structure, flexible supporting between the ball and the supporting pull rods is achieved, pressure is effectively scattered, earthquake energy is absorbed, and safety and reliability of the structure are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of mechanical equipment, and relates to a detector structure, in particular to a support structure of an organic glass detector. Background technique [0002] Most of the existing neutrino detectors use plexiglass as the material of the main structure of the neutrino detector to minimize the light absorption and interference of the detector itself, thereby improving the accuracy of neutrino detection. The Canadian SNO neutrino detector adopts a rope suspension support structure, and a plexiglass sphere is suspended in the air by several synthetic fiber ropes fixed at the equator. This support method has high requirements on the rope, and the force on the suspension part is not uniform, and the phenomenon of stress concentration is obvious, so it is only suitable for detectors with a small diameter of the sphere. The large spherical storage tanks widely used in the petrochemical industry generally adopt a pillar suppo...

Problems solved by technology

Studies have shown that this support method will also produce obvious stress concentration at the equatorial support part. For example, if it is used on a plexiglass detector, not only the stress distribution is more complicated, the production is difficult, but also the shading rate is high, which can reduce the medium and micro to a certain extent.
