Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of column foot reinforcement, and in particular to an assembled reinforcement device for the column foot of a masonry building structure. Background Art
[0002] Currently, my country's construction landscape is shifting toward a coexistence of new and existing buildings. This is particularly true for cultural heritage buildings, which require reinforcement to extend their preservation. Existing masonry buildings are susceptible to damage at the base of columns, a crucial force-transmitting element, under the influence of earthquakes, vibrations, and harsh environmental erosion. This damage can compromise the safety of existing masonry structures, leading to serious safety hazards and economic losses. Effective reinforcement of the base of columns in existing masonry buildings can extend the service life of existing structures, ensuring their safety and long-term serviceability, and is of great significance to my country.
[0003] Cultural heritage buildings are the crystallization of human material and spiritual civilization throughout history, embodying human aesthetics and construction techniques. They are carriers of historical and cultural heritage and possess significant historical, cultural, and scientific value. Compared to modern architecture, cultural heritage buildings lack mature earthquake-resistant theories to draw upon during their construction. Furthermore, after long-term exposure to the natural environment, their material properties and bearing capacity have degraded to a certain extent. Column bases are particularly susceptible to damage under earthquakes, which can seriously impact the stability of cultural heritage buildings. Implementing appropriate column base reinforcement measures to ensure the safety and long-term preservation of cultural heritage buildings is an urgent and crucial task.
[0004] To achieve the goals of "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality," the use of prefabricated technology is strongly advocated. As a green and environmentally friendly construction method, prefabricated technology has been applied to the construction of residential housing, industrial plants, and sports facilities, becoming a major direction of transformation in the construction industry. The modular assembly system divides the entire structure into multiple units, prefabricating each unit in the factory and then transporting it to the construction site for rapid assembly. Prefabricated technology has developed rapidly in China in recent years and has been widely used due to its advantages such as prefabrication, high industrial production efficiency, fast assembly speed, clear load transfer paths, high recycling rate, and environmental friendliness.
[0005] Existing technologies merely clamp and secure column bases. For example, patent publication number CN218467205U discloses a prefabricated, multifunctional device for reinforcing decayed column bases in wooden structures. The device hollows out the original concrete block encasing the wooden column, removes the decayed portion of the column base, and places a wooden column support device in the hole. The device comprises a steel casing and a jack. A jack screw extends into the steel casing and is rotated by a jack handle to elevate the column to its original elevation. The jack handle then locks the jack into the steel casing. The bottom of the wooden column support device is located within the concrete block and encased in bottom grouting material. The top is encased in upper grouting material, supporting the wooden column at the top. Steel hoops secure the wooden column and the upper grouting material to the outside. The device corrects settlement and reinforces decayed column bases, achieving the goal of strengthening decayed column bases. It offers the advantages of ease of assembly, rapid reinforcement, and cost-effectiveness. However, after the column tilts and bends, a shear force is formed between the column and the upper edge of the reinforcement device, thereby causing damage to the column, which is not conducive to the protection of the building.

[0032] The following combination Figure 1-Figure 7 The present invention is described in detail.
[0033] Example
[0034] A masonry building structure column base assembly reinforcement device includes a base plate assembly 8 that embraces a column 1, the base plate assembly 8 is provided with anti-pullout bolts 9 fixedly connected to the ground, the base plate assembly 8 is provided with a support assembly 4, the support assembly 4 is provided with a top plate assembly 3 that embraces the column 1, and the top plate assembly 3 is installed with an energy dissipation assembly 2 that embraces the column 1 and is used to limit the bending of the column 1.
[0035] The anti-pullout bolts 9 on the base plate assembly 8 fix the entire reinforcement device to the ground. The energy-absorbing assembly 2 surrounding the outside of the column 1 can absorb and consume the bending energy of the column 1 and allow the column 1 to bend to a certain extent to ensure that the column 1 will not be sheared and broken, which can increase the structural strength of the cultural relic building while reducing damage to the cultural relic building.
[0036] The energy-absorbing assembly 2 includes a mounting plate 201 connected to the top plate assembly 3 via screws. A first clamping plate 203 in contact with the surface of the column 1 and a second clamping plate 202 spaced apart on the outside of the first clamping plate 203 are vertically connected to the mounting plate 201. An energy-absorbing plate 204 is detachably connected between the first clamping plate 203 and the second clamping plate 202. A strip-shaped through-hole 205 is vertically provided on the energy-absorbing plate 204 so that the energy-absorbing plate 204 can deform and absorb energy. When the column 1 tilts, the first clamping plate 203 is subjected to force and deflects outward, squeezing the energy-absorbing plate 204. After absorbing energy, the energy-absorbing plate 204 deforms and is damaged. The first clamping plate 203 can be hinged to the mounting plate 201 to facilitate its deflection. The energy-absorbing plate 204 is made of Q235 steel, a steel with a yield strength range of 100MPa-225MPa, to ensure good plasticity.
[0037] The outer side of the first clamping plate 203 and the inner side of the second clamping plate 202 are both provided with protrusions 206. The energy dissipation plates 204 are attached to the protrusions 206 and then connected via screws. The protrusions 206 and the screws used to install the energy dissipation plates 204 facilitate assembly. At the same time, because the protrusions 206 separate the two energy dissipation plates 204, the energy dissipation plates 204 have sufficient space to deform.
[0038] The top plate assembly 3 includes at least two joined first L-shaped plates 301, which are connected into a single unit by bolts on the mounting plate 201. Some of the bolts on the mounting plate 201 are connected to one of the first L-shaped plates 301, while the remaining bolts are connected to the other first L-shaped plate 301, thereby connecting the two first L-shaped plates 301 into a single unit.
[0039] The support assembly 4 includes at least two first vertical plates 401 spaced apart from each other. Each first vertical plate 401 has at least two vertical slots 403 formed therein. A second vertical plate 402 is secured between the two first vertical plates 401 via the slots 403. When the two first vertical plates 401 and the two second vertical plates 402 are secured together, they encircle the column 1 and provide stable support for the top plate assembly 3, allowing the energy dissipation assembly 2 on the top plate assembly 3 to transfer load downward.
[0040] The bottom plate assembly 8 includes at least two second L-shaped plates 801. Connecting plates 802 are vertically mounted on the sidewalls of the second L-shaped plates 801. When the two second L-shaped plates 801 are assembled, the two connecting plates 802 abut against each other and are detachably connected via screws. In this application, four second L-shaped plates 801 are provided, and the second L-shaped plates 801 are interconnected to form an encircling shape.
[0041] The second L-shaped plate 801 is provided with a slot 803 for clamping the first vertical plate 401. The slot 803 is provided to position the first vertical plate 401, ensuring that the support assembly 4 is quickly installed in place.
[0042] A 7-shaped connector 7 is removably connected to the connecting plate 802 via a screw. A connecting assembly 5 is vertically mounted on the 7-shaped connector 7, connecting the energy dissipation assembly 2 and the top plate assembly 3. The connecting assembly 5 comprises a tensioning screw 501, with compression springs 502 mounted at each end. A first washer 503 is positioned outside the compression spring 502, and a first nut 504 is threadedly connected to the end of the tensioning screw 501, located outside the first washer 503. The tensioning screw 501 connects the energy dissipation assembly 2, the top plate assembly 3, and the bottom plate assembly 8 into a single unit, increasing the structural strength of the reinforcement device. The compression spring 502 acts as a buffer for energy transferred from top to bottom.
[0043] An L-shaped connector 6, which engages with the upper end surface of the 7-shaped connector 7, is detachably connected to the support assembly 4 via a screw. A portion of the tension screw 501 passes through the L-shaped connector 6 and then connects to the 7-shaped connector 7. The L-shaped connector 6 cooperates with the 7-shaped connector 7 to increase the structural strength of the 7-shaped connector 7 and prevent it from easily deforming or damaging. At the same time, the L-shaped connector 6 also connects the support assembly 4 to the connecting assembly 5, further ensuring the overall strength of the reinforcement device and preventing the second vertical plate 402 from sliding out of the first vertical plate 401 along the slot 403.
[0044] The pull-out bolt 9 includes a countersunk head 901, on which a sleeve 902, a disc spring 903, and a second washer 904 are movably mounted. A second nut 905 is threadedly mounted on the countersunk head 901. The countersunk head 901 and sleeve 902 are first inserted into the pre-set hole. The base plate assembly 8 is assembled and placed on the ground. The upper end of the countersunk head 901 is movably inserted through the mounting hole reserved in the second L-shaped plate 801. The disc spring 903, second washer 904, and second nut 905 are then installed in sequence. The second nut 905 is screwed, causing the countersunk head 901 to move outward and force the sleeve 902 to expand and abut against the inner wall of the hole, thereby securing the base plate assembly 8. The deformation of the disc spring 903 achieves self-reset, and the elastic deformation of the disc spring 903 absorbs external energy, improving the energy dissipation capacity of the column foot node and ensuring the safety of the column.
[0045] The above-mentioned detachable connections are all connected by screws, which is convenient for assembly. The reinforcement device of the present application is easy to assemble and reversible. All components can be prefabricated in the factory in advance. Only simple bolt connection work is required during on-site construction, which can achieve rapid assembly and disassembly, high installation efficiency and easy replacement, avoiding on-site welding processes, high assembly efficiency, and meeting the principle of minimum intervention; the reinforcement device of the present application has high rigidity and a clear force mechanism. Through the collaborative work between different components, the comprehensive service performance of the column base is enhanced; due to the presence of bolts, the various components can work together better and cooperate closely, meeting the design principle of "strong nodes, weak components", significantly improving the overall anti-lateral displacement and anti-overturning capabilities of the structure, and enhancing the overall stability; the main raw material of the column base reinforcement device is steel, which has low cost and is easy to recycle, and has great engineering application value.
[0046] The present application forms a base plate assembly 8 that surrounds the column through bolt connection, and adopts a reinforcement method of increasing the column cross-section to achieve a reinforcement effect that improves the column's lateral resistance. During the assembly process, since the bolts themselves have a certain adjustable length, the connection of the base plate assembly 8 can provide a certain dimensional margin for the column, making the manufacture and installation of the component extremely flexible.
[0047] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations of the present invention are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
