Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of transportation and conveying equipment technology, specifically a bridge component construction device. Background Technology
[0002] Bridge components are the basic building blocks of a bridge structure. They can be categorized hierarchically into sub-components and their sub-sub-components. Core components include expansion joints, anchorages, bearings, and corrugated pipes. During construction, workers assemble these components to form a stable and safe bridge. Therefore, the transportation, positioning, and installation of bridge components are crucial aspects of bridge construction.
[0003] For example, the utility model patent published in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN213565968U, entitled "Transportation Mechanism for Special Structural Components of Steel Structure Bridges," includes a base plate, a fixing mechanism, and a displacement mechanism. The top of the base plate has a horizontally opened groove. The fixing mechanism and the displacement mechanism are installed inside the base plate. The fixing mechanism consists of a first rocker arm, a coupling, a lead screw, a smooth rod, a slider, and a clamping plate. The left end of the first rocker arm rotates concentrically with the lead screw through the coupling. The lead screw and the smooth rod pass through the slider laterally, and the lead screw is threadedly connected to the slider. The top of the slider is locked to the clamping plate by bolts. The slider slides along the groove. The coupling is embedded in the right side wall of the base plate. The left end of the lead screw is rotatably connected to the base plate through a shaft seat. The left and right ends of the smooth rod are locked to the base plate by bolts.
[0004] The aforementioned bridge component transportation devices primarily rely on manual labor in conjunction with vehicles to transport bridge components to designated locations. Therefore, their use presents the following problems: the transfer of bridge components largely depends on large cranes with manual assistance, which is not only inefficient but also makes it difficult to guarantee accuracy in component positioning, easily leading to installation deviations and affecting the overall construction quality of the bridge. Furthermore, in some complex construction environments, such as river-crossing bridges and mountain bridges, traditional equipment has poor adaptability and struggles to meet the construction needs under special conditions.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0026] The bridge component construction device of the present invention uses an I-shaped guide rail with fixing holes to suspend the guide rail in conjunction with fasteners. The electrical control box is suspended from the bottom of the I-shaped guide rail by a support cantilever and guide rollers at its top. A drive motor and traction drive wheel drive the transport mechanism to move along the track of the I-shaped guide rail. Different clamps are mounted on the gripper mounting frame at the bottom of the electrical control box to transport different bridge components, suspending the bridge components above the ground, thus achieving adaptability to different ground environments.
[0027] The bridge component construction device of the present invention fixes the side of the I-shaped guide rail with fixing holes to the ground, so that the I-shaped guide rail can be erected across the disconnected areas such as bridge joints and water surfaces; at this time, the opening of the grab mounting frame faces upward, which can lift the bridge component off the ground for transportation, thus achieving adaptability to different usage environments.
[0028] Meanwhile, when the conveying route needs to turn or the conveying distance is too long, multiple I-shaped guide rails can be spliced together by using connectors and fixing holes to achieve the effect of turning and ultra-long-distance conveying.
[0029] The bridge component construction device of the present invention, by setting two positioning probes on the top of the electrical control box and setting different positioning marks on the bottom of the I-shaped guide rail, allows the positioning probes to be set by the host computer when transporting bridge components.

[0050] To provide a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of the present invention, specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0051] Please see Figures 1 to 14It should be understood that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc., illustrated in the accompanying drawings are merely for illustrative purposes to aid those skilled in the art and to facilitate understanding and reading. They are not intended to limit the scope of the invention and therefore have no substantial technical significance. Any modifications to the structure, changes in proportions, or adjustments to size, without affecting the effectiveness and purpose of the invention, should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed in this invention. Furthermore, the terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "middle," and "one" used in this specification are merely for clarity and not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, should also be considered within the scope of the invention's implementation.
[0052] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figures 5-7 As shown, this invention provides a bridge component construction device, including a guide rail mechanism 1, which is composed of single or multiple sections and laid according to the transport route for bridge components. A transport mechanism 2 is provided on the guide rail mechanism 1, moving along its trajectory. The transport mechanism 2 generates driving force through movement to transport the bridge components to a designated location. A wiring mechanism 3 is provided at the connection between the guide rail mechanism 1 and the transport mechanism 2. The wiring mechanism 3 contains multiple cables, each used for transmitting power and signals. The cables are sheathed and can bend according to the bending degree of the wiring mechanism 3. The cables are used to connect the transport mechanism 2 to an external host computer, enabling power supply and data transmission. This allows the host computer to interact with the transport mechanism 2, controlling its start / stop and travel speed.
[0053] The guide rail mechanism 1 includes an I-shaped guide rail 11. Grooves are provided on both sides of the I-shaped guide rail 11, thus forming an "I"-shaped cross-section. Limiting grooves 12 are provided on the upper and lower inner walls of the grooves on both sides of the I-shaped guide rail 11. These limiting grooves 12 further limit the movement of the transport mechanism 2, ensuring that the transport mechanism 2 moves strictly along the path of the I-shaped guide rail 11 and preventing derailment. Several fixing holes 13 are equidistantly spaced on the top of the I-shaped guide rail 11. These fixing holes 13 are through holes that penetrate the edge of the top of the I-shaped guide rail 11. The fixing holes 13 cooperate with fasteners to fix the I-shaped guide rail 11. For example, the I-shaped guide rail 11 can be installed by directly fixing it to a crossbeam in the air with bolts through the fixing holes 13, suspending it in the air with a hanger, or fixing it to the ground with bolts. The specific installation method is selected according to the bridge construction environment to improve the versatility of the device. Furthermore, depending on the installation method of the I-shaped guide rail 11, it can be conveniently used to cross bridges, valleys, and other areas.
[0054] The transportation mechanism 2 includes an electrical control box 21. The electrical control box 21 contains a control board and other necessary supporting signal interaction and power supply equipment. Remote control receivers and human-machine interface devices can be installed on the side of the electrical control box 21 as needed. These devices are connected to the control board, which is connected to cables in the wiring mechanism 3. This enables the control board to interact with an external host computer, receive power from the outside, be controlled via the human-machine interface, or be remotely controlled wirelessly. The control board includes a circuit board with a storage medium for storing instructions and logic programs, a processor for logic operation and judgment, and multiple connection ports for external connections, including power and data ports. Supporting cantilever arms 22 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top of the electrical control box 21. Guide rollers 23 are located on the inner wall of the upper end of each supporting cantilever arm 22. These guide rollers 23 are connected to shafts on the side of the supporting cantilever arm 22 via bearings, allowing them to extend into grooves on the side of the I-shaped guide rail 11. The guide roller 23 is rotatably mounted inside the limiting groove 12, and the width of the guide roller 23 is the same as the width of the limiting groove 12. This allows the electrical control box 21 to be suspended on the I-shaped guide rail 11, while the limiting groove 12 limits the guide roller 23, thus preventing the electrical control box 21 from shaking or derailing during movement. A drive motor 24 is located on the top of the electrical control box 21 as the power source for transporting bridge components. The drive motor 24 is a servo motor, stepper motor, or other motor capable of precise control. The drive motor 24 is connected to the control board inside the electrical control box 21 via wires, enabling operation via a host computer or a pre-set program on the control board within the electrical control box 21. A traction drive wheel 25 is mounted on the drive shaft of the drive motor 24. The outer surface of the traction drive wheel 25 abuts against the bottom of the I-shaped guide rail 11. When the traction drive wheel 25 is driven by the drive motor 24 and rotates, the force between the traction drive wheel 25 and the I-shaped guide rail 11 drives the entire transport mechanism 2 to move. Positioning probes 27 are installed on both the left and right sides of the top of the electrical control box 21. The positioning probes 27 are connected to the control board in the electrical control box 21. The positioning probes 27 are one or a combination of electromagnetic induction, vision, and infrared probes. The bottom of the I-shaped guide rail 11 is provided with positioning marks that are compatible with the positioning probes 27. The positioning marks are fixed by adhesive or magnetic attraction and are generally set at the location where bridge components need to be transported or at the location that needs special attention. When the positioning probes 27 identify the positioning marks, they transmit different instructions to the control board according to the different marks, such as: stop unloading, slow down, etc.
[0055] The bottom of the electrical control box 21 is provided with a gripper mounting frame 28, which is used to install different grippers to adapt to different bridge components, such as: clamps, hooks, baskets, winches, etc. Compared with existing conveying devices that cannot change grippers and carriers at any time, this device has better adaptability.
[0056] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the upper wall width of the groove on the side of the I-shaped guide rail 11 is greater than the lower wall width. The fixing hole 13 is located at the edge of the upper wall of the groove on the side of the I-shaped guide rail 11. The fixing hole 13 is a countersunk hole with a diameter that is smaller at the top and larger at the bottom. When the I-shaped guide rail 11 is fixed by fasteners cooperating with the fixing hole 13, the position of the fixing hole 13 is mainly used to avoid the limiting groove 12, so as to avoid the fasteners interfering with the movement of the guide roller 23. Furthermore, the end of the fastener can be hidden in the larger diameter of the fixing hole 13 to further avoid interference from the fasteners.
[0057] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the gripper mounting frame 28 of the present invention has a main connecting hole 29 on its side axis. The gripper installed in the gripper mounting frame 28 is mainly fixed by fasteners engaging with the main connecting hole 29, and the movable gripper can rotate around the main connecting hole 29 as a pivot point. The side of the main connecting hole 29 has multiple satellite connecting holes 210 arranged in a circular array with the center of the main connecting hole 29 as the origin. Fasteners engaging with the satellite connecting holes 210 can further fix the gripper installed in the gripper mounting frame 28, preventing gripper swaying and improving the stability and accuracy of bridge component transportation. Users can choose whether to use the satellite connecting holes 210 for further positioning of the gripper based on its function and purpose.
[0058] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the electrical control box 21 of the present invention is provided with multiple power supply and communication interfaces 211 on both the front and rear sides. The power supply and communication interfaces 211 are connected to the control board inside the electrical control box 21 to realize power supply and data transmission. Depending on the bridge component gripper, some grippers may require electrical control; in this case, the gripper is connected to the power supply and communication interfaces 211 via cables to realize interaction with the control board inside the electrical control box 21, so that the gripper can be controlled through a remote host computer, human-machine interaction device, or receiver on the side of the electrical control box 21, realizing convenient operation and control.
[0059] like Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, the bottom of the I-shaped guide rail 11 of the present invention is provided with a toothed groove 14 of the same length as the I-shaped guide rail 11. The outer surface of the traction drive wheel 25 is provided with teeth, and the traction drive wheel 25 meshes with the toothed groove 14. When the traction drive wheel 25 is driven by the drive motor 24, the meshing of the traction drive wheel 25 with the toothed groove 14 can make the movement position of the transport mechanism 2 more accurate, and can effectively avoid the differential speed caused by the slippage of the connection between the traction drive wheel 25 and the toothed groove 14 due to the increased weight of the bridge components being transported.
[0060] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the wiring mechanism 3 of the present invention is disposed in the groove on one or both sides of the I-shaped guide rail 11. The end of the wiring mechanism 3 connected to the transport mechanism 2 moves with the movement of the transport mechanism 2, thereby realizing real-time power supply and data transmission to the transport mechanism 2.
[0061] like Figures 8-10 As shown, in some embodiments, the wiring mechanism 3 of the present invention includes a hollow track tube 31. The thickness of the track tube 31 is less than half the distance from the limiting groove 12 to the inner wall of the I-shaped guide rail 11. The interior of the track tube 31 is used for wiring and to protect the cables. The track tube 31 is a flexible sleeve or a track-type cable tray, thereby enabling the track tube 31 to bend. Both ends of the track tube 31 are provided with connecting flanges 32. The diameter of the connecting flanges 32 is larger than the diameter of the track tube 31, and the edges of the connecting flanges 32 are provided with mounting holes.
[0062] The side of the electrical control box 21 is provided with lead-in plates 26 that match the number of track tubes 31. The side of the lead-in plates 26 facing the interior of the electrical control box 21 has a wiring channel 261 that runs through the interior of the electrical control box 21. One end of the wiring channel 261 is connected to a host computer via a flange 32, and the other end is connected to the lead-in plates 26 and covers the outer surface of the wiring channel 261. Cables arranged in the track tubes 31 enter the interior of the electrical control box 21 through the wiring channel 261, enabling the connection between the control board inside the electrical control box 21 and the host computer.
[0063] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 9-11As shown, in some embodiments, the track tube 31 of the present invention is magnetically attached to both sides. The track tube 31 is magnetically attracted to the groove on the side of the I-shaped guide rail 11, which can effectively prevent the track tube 31 from being too long and falling out of the groove on the side of the I-shaped guide rail 11 under the action of gravity, thus avoiding it from being suspended in the air or dragging on the ground. When the track tube 31 is suspended in the air or dragging on the ground, it will move with the movement of the transport mechanism 2, causing it to swing. The swinging track tube 31 may collide with or become entangled with the bridge components being transported, surrounding objects, or pedestrians. Furthermore, the swinging of the track tube 31 will cause the cable in the track tube 31 to be stressed, resulting in problems such as loosening and wear at the cable connection. The end of the track tube 31 connected to the lead plate 26 is U-shaped and is equipped with a magnet that attracts the surface of the track tube 31. The U-shaped bend is magnetically attracted to maintain its U-shaped shape. The purpose of this U-shaped bend is that when the transport mechanism 2 moves towards the initial position of the I-shaped guide rail 11, the end of the track tube 31 will fold along with the transport mechanism 2. At this time, due to magnetic attraction, the folded parts of the track tube 31 are attracted together, effectively preventing the track tube 31 from sliding out of the side groove of the I-shaped guide rail 11. When the transport mechanism 2 moves away from the initial position of the I-shaped guide rail 11, the end of the track tube 31 will push the folded track tube 31 to unfold. The unfolded track tube 31 will be attracted to the inner wall of the side groove of the I-shaped guide rail 11 under the action of magnetism and arranged along the track of the I-shaped guide rail 11. Through the above-mentioned movement state of the track tube 31, the risks caused by the track tube 31 can be effectively avoided. The prior art may achieve the above function by using cable ties or temporarily setting up guide rails. However, the prior art is not as convenient for wiring and maintenance as the technical solution of this application.
[0064] The outer surface of the track tube 31 is provided with a traction guide groove 33, and a traction slider 34 is provided at the bend of the track tube 31. The traction slider 34 extends into the interior of the traction guide groove 33 and slides along the trajectory of the traction guide groove 33. Through the cooperation of the traction guide groove 33 and the traction slider 34, the end of the track tube 31 can be further limited, thereby improving the stability of the track tube 31 during U-shaped folding.
[0065] like Figure 9 and Figure 12As shown, in some embodiments, the traction guide groove 33 of the present invention is a T-shaped groove. The traction slider 34 includes a connecting traction plate 341, one end of which is provided with a flange connecting plate 342, and the other end is provided with a guide traction plate 343. The guide traction plate 343 is slidably connected inside the traction guide groove 33, and the flange connecting plate 342 is connected to the outer surface of the end of the track tube 31. In use, one end of the connecting traction plate 341 extends into the interior of the traction guide groove 33, and cooperates with the traction guide groove 33 through the guide traction plate 343, so that the guide traction plate 343 can move along the arrangement trajectory of the track tube 31 without disengaging, thereby realizing the traction of the end of the track tube 31, avoiding problems such as displacement and twisting of the end of the track tube 31 as it moves with the transport mechanism 2, and further improving the safety of the cable.
[0066] like Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, in some embodiments, a detachable installation auxiliary device 15 is installed on the fixing hole 13 of the present invention. The installation auxiliary device 15 can assist in the installation of the I-shaped guide rail 11, improving the convenience of equipment installation. The installation auxiliary device 15 includes two suspension rods 151 and a connecting support plate frame 152. The two suspension rods 151 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting support plate frame 152, and the gap between the two suspension rods 151 is adapted to the span between two adjacent fixing holes 13, so that the two suspension rods 151 can be inserted into the two fixing holes 13 at the same time. The outer surface of the lower end of the suspension rod 151 is provided with external threads for cooperating with nuts to fix the I-shaped guide rail 11. To improve safety and stability, the inner and outer walls of the upper surface of the groove on the side of the I-shaped guide rail 11 can be locked with nuts to limit the vertical displacement of the I-shaped guide rail 11.
[0067] The length of the connecting support plate frame 152 is greater than the width of the I-shaped guide rail 11. Both ends of the connecting support plate frame 152 are provided with support connection holes 153. The length of the connecting support plate frame 152 is set to facilitate installation and to avoid the inability to install the support frame when the equipment is fixed and supported from the bottom of the connecting support plate frame 152, as well as to avoid obstructing the movement of the transport mechanism 2 and the wiring of the wiring mechanism 3.
[0068] To further enhance the versatility of the device, two sets of I-shaped guide rails 11 can be connected to the suspension rods 151 at the bottom of the connecting support frame 152, thus forming a pattern of multiple sets of I-shaped guide rails 11 arranged side by side. Multiple transport mechanisms 2 can then operate simultaneously to transport large-volume, heavy bridge components or achieve batch transport of bridge components. Using the installation auxiliary device 15 to connect multiple I-shaped guide rails 11 is more convenient than directly installing the I-shaped guide rails 11 side by side on a fixed surface, as it makes it difficult to determine the spacing between two I-shaped guide rails 11. When there is a large error in the spacing between the I-shaped guide rails 11, the simultaneous driving of the same bridge component by multiple transport mechanisms 2 can easily lead to risks such as overturning due to uneven force. However, the spacing between the suspension rods 151 in this device is fixed. During installation, only the position of one I-shaped guide rail 11 needs to be positioned, and the remaining I-shaped guide rails 11 do not need to be repositioned, greatly improving the convenience and efficiency of the layout and ensuring that the spacing between the I-shaped guide rails 11 remains equal, thus improving the uniformity of force and safety when transporting bridge components.
[0069] In summary, when using the bridge component construction device of the present invention, the installation method of the device is first selected according to the needs of the construction site and the installation environment. For example, if there are many debris on the construction site and it is not suitable to install on the ground, and there is a suspension above, the I-shaped guide rail 11 can be suspended on the suspension by using the fixing hole 13 and fasteners. According to the requirements of the conveying length, multiple I-shaped guide rails 11 can be spliced together by using fasteners and fixing holes 13 to form a complete conveying track, or the I-shaped guide rail 11 can be directly fixed on the ground or suspended or supported on the ground by the installation auxiliary device 15.
[0070] Subsequently, a track tube 31 with a total length equivalent to that of the I-shaped guide rail 11 is set in the groove on the side of the I-shaped guide rail 11, and after the cable is arranged in the track tube 31, the track tube 31 is attracted to the inside of the groove on the side of the I-shaped guide rail 11 and fixed in position.
[0071] After the track tube 31 is installed, the transport mechanism 2 is inserted into the limiting grooves 12 on both sides of the I-shaped guide rail 11 from the starting end of the I-shaped guide rail 11 via the drive motor 24, and the drive motor 24 is completely limited inside the limiting groove 12. At the same time, the traction drive wheel 25 and the toothed groove 14 are in a meshing state. Then, the end of the track tube 31 away from the transport mechanism 2 is bent to the lead plate 26, and the cable is connected to the control board inside the electrical control box 21. The end of the track tube 31 is fixed to the inner wall of the lead plate 26 by bolts and connecting flange 32. The cable at the other end of the track tube 31 is connected to the external host computer and fixed to the host computer by connecting flange 32 and bolts.
[0072] After all equipment is assembled, the current position of the transport mechanism 2 is zeroed and the working status of the transport mechanism 2 is tested by the host computer. After the transport mechanism 2 is tested, according to the requirements of the transport position, a positioning mark is set on the side of the I-shaped guide rail 11 facing the transport mechanism 2 to facilitate the positioning probe 27 to identify the position.
[0073] During the transport of bridge components, depending on the type of bridge component, different types of clamping devices are installed in the gripper mounting frame 28 through the main connection hole 29 and / or satellite connection hole 210 with fasteners. If the clamping device is an electric or CNC clamp, the spacing is connected to the power supply and communication interface 211 via jumpers. The clamping and releasing of the clamping device is controlled by the host computer. After the bridge component is clamped and fixed, the movement parameters of the transport mechanism 2 can be set by the host computer to make the transport mechanism 2 move in a predetermined direction. When the positioning probe 27 identifies a specific positioning mark, it transmits feature data to the control board in the electrical control box 21. The control board in the electrical control box 21 controls the drive motor 24 to perform deceleration, stopping and other operations according to the feature data transmitted by the positioning probe 27. After the transport mechanism 2 stops completely, the clamping device is controlled to release the bridge component according to the instructions of the host computer or the operation of the on-site personnel to realize the unloading. After the unloading is completed, the transport mechanism 2 continues to move and transport the bridge component according to the preset or returns to the initial position to wait for new instructions.
[0074] Alternatively, when it is necessary to transport heavy bridge components, the auxiliary device 15 can be installed in conjunction with the fixing hole 13 to achieve parallel connection of two or more sets of I-shaped guide rails 11, thereby enabling multiple transport mechanisms 2 to work together synchronously to transport heavy objects. Compared with traditional transport devices, it can be easily modified.
[0075] The above description is merely an illustrative embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Any equivalent changes and modifications made by those skilled in the art without departing from the concept and principles of the present invention should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Furthermore, it should be noted that the components of the present invention are not limited to the overall application described above. Each technical feature described in the specification can be used individually or in combination as needed. Therefore, the present invention naturally covers other combinations and specific applications related to the inventive points of this case.
