During the operation of the bridge, the tower needs to be inspected and maintained due to structural safety requirements or painted and decorated due to landscape requirements. In the past cable-stayed bridge designs, due to insufficient understanding of maintenance, some cable-stayed bridges did not install tower maintenance systems, and some cable-stayed bridges only set up maintenance platforms at several key maintenance locations of the tower, which could not meet the maintenance requirements of full coverage of the tower. In the newly built cable-stayed bridges in recent years, a 360-degree rotatable crane is sometimes installed at the center of the top of the tower. The crane arm is retractable and a hanging basket is hung at the end of the crane arm. The tower is repaired by lifting the hanging basket. This maintenance system has problems such as interference with the auxiliary facilities on the top of the tower, high maintenance cost, short service life and high cost. In addition, for the lower forked tower column of the inverted Y-shaped tower column, there are problems such as the inner inclined surface and the interference of the 0# cable on the inner inclined surface. How to fully cover the inverted Y-shaped tower column is even more difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an inspection system that meets the requirements of light weight, easy operation, reasonable cost, low later maintenance cost, and can achieve full coverage inspection of the inverted Y-shaped tower column without being affected by obstacles such as inclined cables.

[0021] 4) The annular clamp device in the tower uses gravity to clamp the middle of the tower column, without the need to set anchors on the tower column, reducing the impact on the tower column structure.

[0022] 5) The operating platform adopts a truss structure made of high-strength aluminum alloy, which greatly reduces the weight of the operating platform and reduces the force requirements of the telescopic boom device on the top of the tower and the annular hoop device in the tower.

[0023] 6) The suspended operating platform is composed of 7 types of hanging basket units according to different maintenance positions, which reduces the number of hanging baskets and improves the utilization rate of hanging baskets. At the same time, the 6 operating platforms can realize full coverage maintenance of inverted Y-shaped tower columns and can pass through obstacles such as inclined cables.

[0024] 7) When the operating platform and lifting rope are not in use, they can be placed in the warehouse to avoid exposure to the outdoor environment, which greatly increases their service life.

[0025] 8) During maintenance and repair work, the impact on traffic on the bridge deck is small due to the small scope of construction. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
