Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of bridge bearing replacement technology, specifically to a device and method for replacing bearings on the deck of an existing bridge. Background Technology
[0002] In urban renewal construction, bridge jacking and bearing replacement is of paramount importance in the renovation of existing bridges. By replacing damaged or aging bearings, the safety and stability of the existing bridge structure can be ensured, the service life of the bridge can be extended, the load-bearing capacity and seismic performance of the bridge can be improved, and the efficiency of bridge use can be increased. It can be carried out without affecting or minimizing traffic, reducing the impact on urban traffic, and is also more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.
[0003] Traditional methods for replacing bearings on existing bridges include steel support jacking, corbel jacking, and direct jacking from the pier top.
[0004] I. Lifting and replacing steel supports Replacing the bearing with a steel support requires setting up a separate reaction foundation and installing steel supports. Jacks are then installed on the steel supports, and finally, depending on the beam structure, a distribution beam is installed to lift the beam. This construction requires setting up a reaction foundation, excavating the existing abutment or setting up a new reaction foundation, and installing the lifting steel supports and distribution beams. The construction is complex, time-consuming, and involves a large workload. Furthermore, if there are non-removable obstacles such as highways, national cables, or other structures under the existing bridge, a new reaction foundation cannot be constructed under the bridge, making this method unsuitable.
[0005] II. Direct jacking up the pier top to replace the bearing Direct jacking to replace bearings involves installing jacks directly around the bearings on the pier top and jacking the beam to replace the bearings. This method is only suitable when there is sufficient space between the pier top and the bottom of the beam and the beam is relatively light.
[0006] III. Replacement of Supports for the Cow-Leg Lifting System The corbel lifting and replacement bearing method involves installing corbels with reinforcing bars on the side of the cap beam, and then using jacks mounted on the corbels to directly lift the beam body to replace the bearing. This method cannot be used when the cap beam has an irregular shape or insufficient height.
[0007] The three existing methods for replacing bearings in existing bridges—steel support jacking, corbel jacking, and direct jacking at the pier top—all have limitations in their applicability. Furthermore, some methods involve complex construction, long construction periods, and large project volumes, making it difficult to meet the bearing replacement needs of all existing bridge renovations.
[0008] In situations where traditional jacking and bearing replacement methods are not feasible, this invention provides a method and equipment for replacing bearings on existing bridges by lifting the bridge deck, thus fulfilling the need for the renovation of existing bridges.
[0009] Therefore, a solution is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0019] Based on the above-mentioned equipment, a method for replacing bearings on an existing bridge deck is also included, the method being as follows: Step 1: Install the bridge deck lifting equipment of this plan into its initial operating state according to the positional relationship described above; Step 2: When it is necessary to lift the bridge connecting beam, the upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock at the top of the through-hole jack is locked, and then the lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock is opened. After that, the through-hole jack begins to lift with the upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock, thereby driving the bridge connecting beam to be lifted. Step 3: After the single lifting action of the through-hole jack is completed, the lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock begins to tighten. Then the through-hole jack retracts, and the upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock on the top of the through-hole jack automatically follows the downward rotation. Step 4: Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the bridge connecting beam is lifted into place, then begin replacing the supports; Step 5: Within one stroke of the cylinder extension of the through-hole jack, the fully automatic mechanical screw lock follows the upward rotation for one stroke to maintain the locked state, and the upward locking rate is greater than the cylinder extension rate; Step 6: After the support is replaced, the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock is kept locked, the through-hole jack retracts its cylinder, and the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock and the upper precision-rolled threaded steel bar II descend together, thus lowering the bridge connecting beam. After the through-hole jack retracts its cylinder, the lower fully automatic mechanical auger lock is locked. After locking, the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock is opened, and then the through-hole jack begins to lift the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock. After lifting is completed, the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock locks the upper precision-rolled threaded steel bar II again to complete one descent stroke. Step 7: Repeat the operation of Step 6 until the bridge connecting beam is lowered into place.
[0020] (III) Beneficial Effects This invention provides a device and method for replacing bearings on the deck of an existing bridge. It offers the following advantages: 1.

The fine-rolled threaded steel bar connecting sleeve 55 is sleeved on the bottom of each set of upper fine-rolled threaded steel bars 53 and the top of each set of lower fine-rolled threaded steel bars 54.
[0031] In detail, the bridge connecting beam 2 has a trapezoidal structure, and the steel supports 3 are opposite and symmetrically distributed on the top of the two bridges 1 near the opposite ends along the width direction of the bridge 1. The steel distribution beam 4 has a cuboid structure and is installed on the top of each steel support 3 along the length direction of the bridge 1, with the steel supports 3 located in the center of each steel distribution beam 4.
[0032] Each lower fine-rolled threaded steel bar 54 is implanted into the interior of the bridge deck of bridge 1 by means of rebar anchoring, and the top of each lower fine-rolled threaded steel bar 54 abuts against the corresponding upper fine-rolled threaded steel bar 53.
[0033] The lifting mechanism 6 includes an upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61, a lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock 62, and a through-hole jack 63. The upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61 and the lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock 62 are arranged in an upper and lower structure on the top of each steel distribution beam 4 and are opposite to the position of the nut 51 on the steel distribution beam 4. The through-hole jack 63 is arranged between each set of upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61 and lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock 62.
[0034] The upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61 and the lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock 62 are distributed opposite each other on each through-hole jack 63 along the width direction of the bridge 1. The upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61, the lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock 62 and the through-hole jack 63 are integrally formed.
[0035] The lifting mechanism 7 includes an upper fine-rolled threaded steel bar 2 71, a lower fine-rolled threaded steel bar 2 72, and a fine-rolled threaded steel bar connecting sleeve 2 73.

[0037] The sensing mechanism 8 includes a displacement sensor 81 (model: YWD-30) and a pressure sensor 82 (model: Burster8435-6001). The displacement sensors 81 are oppositely arranged at both ends of the width direction of the bridge connecting beam 2 and each pair is located at both ends of the length direction of the bridge connecting beam 2. The pressure sensors 82 are arranged at the side end of each lower fully automatic mechanical spiral lock 62.
[0038] Solution Analysis: 1. Structural stability Bridge 1 is set up on the left and right sides, and the bridge connecting beam 2 is located between the two bridges 1. Steel supports 3 are evenly distributed on the top of bridge 1, and steel distribution beam 4 is placed on top of steel supports 3. This layout makes the entire structure more evenly stressed in the horizontal and vertical directions, providing a stable foundation support for subsequent jacking operations and effectively avoiding structural damage caused by excessive local stress.
[0039] The constant mechanism 5 uses components such as precision-rolled threaded steel bars and connecting sleeves to firmly connect the steel distribution beam 4 to the bridge deck of bridge 1, which enhances the reliability of the connection between the equipment and bridge 1. During the jacking process, it can prevent relative displacement between the equipment and bridge 1 and ensure the stability of the jacking operation.
[0040] 2. Adaptability and flexibility The steel supports 3 are symmetrically distributed on the top of the bridge 1 near the opposite ends along the width direction. The steel distribution beam 4 is installed along the length of the bridge 1 and the steel supports 3 are located in the center of the steel distribution beam 4. This arrangement can be adapted to different sizes and structures of the bridge 1 and is suitable for the renovation of existing bridges of various specifications, thus improving the versatility of the equipment.
[0041] The fine-rolled threaded steel bars are embedded into the bridge deck of Bridge 1 using a rebar anchoring method. This connection method does not require large-scale damage to the original bridge structure, and the equipment can be installed without affecting the original function of the bridge. At the same time, it ensures the firmness of the connection and improves the flexibility of installation.
[0042] 3. Monitoring accuracy The displacement sensors 81 in the sensing mechanism 8 are oppositely arranged at both ends of the width direction and at both ends of the length direction of the bridge connecting beam 2. They can accurately monitor the travel displacement of the bridge connecting beam 2 from multiple dimensions, ensuring a comprehensive and accurate grasp of the positional changes of the bridge connecting beam 2 during lifting or lowering.
[0043] Pressure sensors 82 are installed on the side of each lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock 62, which can monitor pressure changes in real time during the jacking process, detect abnormal pressure in a timely manner, provide data support for the safe jacking process, and ensure construction safety.
[0044] Please see Figure 8-14 Based on the technical content of the above-mentioned equipment, this solution also includes a method for replacing bearings on the bridge deck of an existing bridge.
[0045] The present invention provides a method for replacing bearings on an existing bridge deck, as follows: Step 1: Please refer to Figure 8 The bridge deck lifting equipment of this scheme shall be installed to the initial operating state according to the positional relationship of claims 1-8; Step 2: Please refer to Figure 9 When it is necessary to lift the bridge connecting beam 2, the upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61 on the top of the through-hole jack 63 is locked, and then the lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock 62 is opened. After that, the through-hole jack 63 begins to lift with the upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61, thereby driving the bridge connecting beam 2 to be lifted. Step 3: Please refer to Figure 10After the single lifting action of the through-hole jack 63 is completed, the lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock 62 begins to tighten, and then the through-hole jack 63 retracts, and the upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61 on the top of the through-hole jack 63 automatically follows and rotates downward. Step 4: Please refer to Figure 11 Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the bridge connecting beam 2 is lifted into place, and then start replacing the supports; Step 5: Please refer to Figure 12 The 63-type through-hole jack extends the cylinder and, within one stroke, the fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61 follows the cylinder's upward rotation for one stroke to maintain the locked state, and the upward locking rate is greater than the cylinder extension rate. Step 6: Please refer to Figure 13 After the support is replaced, the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock 61 remains locked, the through-hole jack 63 retracts its cylinder, and at the same time, the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock 61 and the upper fine-rolled threaded steel bar 71 descend together, thus lowering the bridge connecting beam 2. After the through-hole jack 63 retracts its cylinder, the lower fully automatic mechanical auger lock 62 locks. After locking, the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock 61 opens, and then the through-hole jack 63 begins to lift the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock 61. After lifting, the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock 61 locks the upper fine-rolled threaded steel bar 71 again to complete one descent stroke. Step 7: Please refer to Figure 14 Repeat step 6 until the bridge connecting beam 2 is lowered into place.
[0046] Solution Analysis: 1. Construction efficiency The entire lifting process only requires one set of through-hole jacks (63), which reduces the number of devices used, simplifies the operation process, lowers equipment investment costs, and also reduces the time loss that may be caused by the coordinated operation of multiple sets of devices, thus improving construction efficiency.
[0047] The 63-inch through-hole jack has a stroke of 10cm to 30cm, which is moderate. It can ensure that there is enough lifting volume for each lifting and can quickly complete the force transmission switch during the switching process, making the entire lifting and lowering process more efficient.
[0048] 2. Safety and reliability aspects The lifting process transmits force through the upper fully automatic mechanical screw lock 61, and the switching process transmits force through the lower fully automatic mechanical screw lock 62. The switching logic of this force transmission method is clear. During the lifting and switching process, the locking and unlocking operation of the screw lock can ensure that the bridge connecting beam 2 is always in a stable stress state, avoiding safety hazards such as stress loss.
[0049] Displacement sensor 81 monitors stroke displacement in real time, and pressure sensor 82 monitors pressure during the jacking process in real time. This provides real-time data for the jacking process. Once an abnormality in displacement or pressure is detected, timely measures can be taken to effectively avoid structural damage or safety accidents caused by abnormal conditions, thus greatly improving the safety of construction.
[0050] 3. Energy conservation and environmental protection There is no need to set up new reaction foundations or carry out large-scale excavation and other destructive activities on the original foundation, which reduces resource consumption and waste generation during construction and meets the requirements of energy conservation and environmental protection.
[0051] Working principle: The principle of this invention is a novel jacking method for lifting bridge 1 by installing steel supports 3 and through-hole jacks 63 on the bridge deck. Only one set of through-hole jacks 63 is needed for the overall lifting process. The through-hole jacks 63 are installed between the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock 61 and the lower fully automatic mechanical auger lock 62. A steel distribution beam 4 is placed on top of the steel supports 3. The steel distribution beam 4 is connected by upper precision-rolled threaded steel bars 53 and 71 passing through the bottom and both sides of the lower fully automatic mechanical auger lock 62. During the lifting process, force is transmitted through the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock 61, and during the switching process, force is transmitted through the lower fully automatic mechanical auger lock 62. The root of the upper precision-rolled threaded steel bar 53 is fixed to the lower precision-rolled threaded steel bar 54 through a precision-rolled threaded steel connecting sleeve 55. The root of the upper precision-rolled threaded steel bar 71 is fixed to the lower precision-rolled threaded steel bar 72 through a precision-rolled threaded steel connecting sleeve 73. A displacement sensor 81 is fixed to the side of the bridge connecting beam 2, and a pressure sensor 82 is fixed to the valve of the through-hole jacking jack 63.
[0052] During the lifting process of the bridge connecting beam 2, the through-hole jack 63 lifts the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock 61, which in turn lifts the bridge connecting beam 2 via the upper precision-rolled threaded steel bar 71. After the through-hole jack 63 completes one stroke, the lower fully automatic mechanical auger lock 62 tightens, suspending the bridge connecting beam 2 on the steel distribution beam 4. After the through-hole jack 63 retracts, the upper fully automatic mechanical auger lock 61 automatically tightens, while the lower fully automatic mechanical auger lock 62 loosens to begin the next lifting process. The displacement sensor 81 monitors the stroke displacement in real time, and the pressure sensor 82 monitors the pressure during the lifting process in real time, providing real-time data for the lifting process and determining whether there are any abnormalities in the lifting process.
[0053] The cyclic lifting stroke of the through-hole jack is 10cm to 30cm.

It provides a stable, universal, safe, and controllable equipment foundation for the replacement of bearings on existing bridge decks.
