Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of marine transportation of prefabricated bridge piers, and in particular relates to a pier body shipping jacking and fixing tool. Background Art

[0002] In the construction of cross-sea bridges, prefabricated piers utilize a standardized, modular, and factory-based operation model. Compared to traditional cast-in-place pier construction methods, this not only reduces construction costs and safety risks, but also improves project quality and shortens construction time. Consequently, the integral prefabrication of piers is increasingly being used in bridge construction. When transporting prefabricated piers by barge, locking and limiting devices are required between the pier segments and the transport barge to prevent overturning and relative movement. This secures the pier and barge together and ensures safe transportation. Furthermore, the precast concrete segmental beams of offshore piers are divided into three sections: upper, middle, and lower. Each section has varying dimensions, making a single set of transport fastening fixtures incapable of meeting the transport requirements for all pier segments. Therefore, to save transportation costs and improve efficiency, a pier ship fastening fixture has been developed, taking into account the characteristics of the pier and ship structures, to meet the maritime transport requirements for piers of varying sizes.

[0026] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.

[0027] A pier body shipping top tightening fixture, such as Figures 1 to 7 As shown, it includes a pad beam 1, and tensioning limit devices are symmetrically provided on both sides of the pad beam in the longitudinal direction, and tensioning limit devices are symmetrically provided on both sides of the pad beam in the transverse direction; the tensioning limit device includes a middle corbel 4, and side corbels 7 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the middle corbel, and a middle connecting mechanism for connecting with the pad beam is provided at the lower part of the middle corbel, and a side connecting mechanism for connecting with the pier body and a tensioning mechanism for connecting with the pad beam are provided on the side corbels; the tensioning limit device includes a tightening frame 2, and a plurality of tightening mechanisms 3 and auxiliary mechanisms 8 are provided on the tightening frame, and the bottom of the tightening frame is rigidly fixed to the pad beam.

[0028] Typically, the tightening mechanism includes a tightening bolt 30 that is screwed horizontally onto a tightening frame. The end of the tightening bolt facing the pier shaft is equipped with an end cap. The tightening bolt is connected to a threaded hole in the upper portion of the tightening frame, with the end cap facing the pier shaft. A rubber pad 31 is positioned at the contact point on the end cap facing the pier shaft to cushion the forces between the two and prevent damage to the contact surface. During operation, the lateral distance of the fixture can be adjusted by screwing the tightening bolt in and out.

[0029] The central connection mechanism includes a connecting bolt 40 that passes through the middle corbel, which is equipped with a locking nut 41 and a locking nut washer 42. In an optional embodiment, a stopper 9 is provided on the side of the middle corbel facing the pier body. By adjusting the thickness of the stopper, the longitudinal position of the tooling can be changed to better adapt to the pier body structure. After the middle corbel is stabilized against the pier body by the stopper, the locking nut on the locking rod is tightened to complete the longitudinal fixation of the pier body.

[0030] The tensioning mechanism includes a tensioning beam 5 provided at the upper end of the side corbel, on which are mounted several tie rods 6, each of which passes through the side corbel. Tie rod nuts 60 and tie rod nut washers 61 are provided at the lower ends of the tie rods. The lower ends of the tie rods pass through holes in the bottom of the side corbel and connect to the pad beam below. Nuts and washers are provided at both ends of the tie rods. During use, the longitudinal distance is adjusted by adjusting the hole positions of the tie rods.

[0031] Auxiliary mechanisms include but are not limited to escalators and platforms. Preferably, a guardrail is provided on the platform. The side connection mechanism includes a climbing cone connecting nut 70 installed on the side of the side corbel. Preferably, the climbing cone connecting nut is perpendicular to the tensioning mechanism. When used, the side corbel is connected to the climbing cone embedded in the pier body by bolts. The pad beam is the main load-bearing mechanism, which transfers the force of the pier body to the hull structure. In an optional embodiment, a rubber pad is provided on the upper surface of the pad beam to effectively improve the stability of the combination between the bottom of the pier body and the surface of the pad beam.

[0032] This invention utilizes a combination of tie rod positioning and fixing, bolt limit tightening, and corbel tightening to address the technical difficulty of achieving universal transport tooling due to the varying sizes of segmental beams during pier transportation. This ensures efficient transportation of pier segments and reduces tooling manufacturing costs. Furthermore, this invention is suitable for fixed tightening of pier segment beams of various sizes during maritime transportation. The tightening and limiting device and tie rod assembly and disassembly are highly efficient, the screws are easily adjustable, and pier transportation is safe and reliable. This invention has significant promotional value and positive social benefits, providing a valuable reference for the maritime transportation of prefabricated piers.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
