It should be noted that the words "front", "rear", "left", "right", "upper" and "lower" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, and the words "bottom" and "top", "inner" and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.

[0036] Example:

[0037] A bridge arch rib installation monitoring system, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , including a construction platform 1, a lifting tower 2, a positioning vehicle 3, a traction and lifting device 4, a jacking device 5, a positioning device 6 and a controller 7. The positioning vehicle 3, the traction and lifting device 4, the jacking device 5 and the positioning device 6 are all controlled by the controller 7. The controller 7 can use an intelligent terminal such as PLC, MCU or PC, and then control the positioning vehicle 3, the traction and lifting device 4, the jacking device 5 and the positioning device 6 according to programming instructions or input instructions. The construction platform 1 is set up in the water as a transfer platform for workers and materials. The lifting tower 2 is usually installed on a foundation near the water and used as a supporting foundation for the traction and lifting device 4. A tower crane 21 is arranged on the top of the lifting tower 2, and the tower crane 21 is used to hoist and move the arch rib segments and other construction tools.

The positioning ropes 22 are provided with tension sensors 90 for detecting the stress of the positioning ropes 22. The tension sensors 90 can detect the stress of the positioning ropes 22, and then send the detection values ​​to the controller 7. The controller 7 determines the yaw amplitude of the lifting tower 2 according to the detection values ​​of each tension sensor 90. When the external wind force is strong and the yaw amplitude is greater than the set value, in order to ensure the accuracy of the installation construction, the construction should be stopped.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4The traction and lifting device 4 includes a traction rope 41 and a retracting and releasing assembly for reeling and releasing the traction rope 41. The retracting and releasing assembly adopts a winch 42, and the winch 42 controls the reeling and releasing of the traction rope 41. A limiting assembly 8 for limiting the traction rope 41 is provided on the lifting tower 2. The limiting assembly 8 includes a limiting frame 81 installed on the lifting tower 2 and a limiting wheel 82 rotatably connected to the limiting frame 81 around a horizontal axis, and a limiting groove is provided on the circumference of the limiting wheel 82.

The traction rope 41 passes through the inlet conduit 83, is supported by the limiting wheel 82, and then is connected to pass through the outlet conduit 84, and finally connected to the winch 42. When the arch rib segment is installed, the traction rope 41 is connected to the arch rib segment, and the traction rope 41 is reeled in or unreeled by the winch 42 to traction the arch rib segment, thereby cooperating with the jacking device 5 and the positioning device 6 to position the arch rib segment.

By arranging the pressure detection sensor 100 at the bottom of the limit frame 81, the pressure applied by the limit frame 81 to the pressure detection sensor 100 is detected by the pressure detection sensor 100, and the stress condition on the traction rope 41 is indirectly analyzed and judged. It is easy to install and detect, and is not affected by the winding and unwinding of the traction rope 41.

[0041] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 The upper part of the construction platform 1 is provided with a walking track 11 arranged along its length direction, and the wheels at the bottom of the positioning vehicle 3 roll in contact with the walking track 11, so that the positioning vehicle 3 can travel along the length direction of the walking track 11.

Then, the positioning vehicle 3 is controlled according to the controller 7, and the control vehicle can be accurately moved to the corresponding coordinate position of the walking track 11.

The jacking device 5 includes a plurality of support units 51, and the support unit 51 includes a support tower 511, a lifting hydraulic cylinder 512 vertically fixed to the upper end of the support tower 511, and a lifting platform 513 fixed to the end of the piston rod of the lifting hydraulic cylinder 512. Both ends of the lower end of the support tower 511 are provided with mounting holes, through which bolts can be connected, so that the support tower 511 can be installed and fixed on the positioning vehicle 3 or the support tower 511 can be fixed on the lifting platform 513. The jacking device 5 adopts a modular structure, and by controlling the number of support units 51, the jacking height of the jacking device 5 can be changed in a wide range, so that the height support requirements of the arch rib segment can be well met.

[0043] A plurality of pairs of oblique support rods 31 are provided on the upper part of the positioning vehicle 3, the lower ends of the oblique support rods 31 are hinged to the positioning vehicle 3, and the upper ends of the oblique support rods 31 are hinged to the support tower 511 at the lower end of the jacking device 5. By obliquely supporting the support tower 511 through the oblique support rods 31, the jacking device 5 has good stability.

[0044] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 7 The positioning device 6 includes a mounting plate 61, a clamping block 62 arranged on the mounting plate 61, and a clamping drive assembly for driving the two clamping blocks 62 to move closer to or farther from each other.

An indicator light is fixed on the mounting plate 61, and the indicator light is controlled by the controller 7, which is used to indicate the state of the positioning device 6, so as to facilitate the staff below to work together. The rib plate of the arch rib segment using the device for clamping and positioning is usually provided with a slot hole for cooperating with the clamping head 63. When the two clamping blocks 62 clamp one end of the arch rib segment, the clamped arch rib segment can rotate around the axis of the clamping head 63 because the clamping head 63 is rotatably connected to the clamping block 62 .

[0045] The specific implementation principle of this embodiment is:

[0046] When the arch rib segment is installed using the bridge arch rib installation monitoring system, the number of support units 51 of the jacking device 5 is determined according to the installation height of the arch bridge segment. The arch bridge segment to be installed is moved to the top of the positioning vehicle 3 by the tower crane 21, and then the clamping position of one end of the arch bridge segment is clamped by the positioning device 6. The traction rope 41 is connected to the non-clamping end of the arch bridge segment, and the traction rope 41 is controlled by the winch 42, and then the posture of the arch bridge segment is controlled in cooperation with the positioning device 6. The controller 7 sends a command to the positioning vehicle 3, so that the positioning vehicle 3 moves along the length direction of the walking track 11, and then the walking track 11 is moved to the corresponding position coordinates. The controller 7 controls each lifting hydraulic cylinder 512 of the jacking device 5, and then the arch bridge segment is jacked to the corresponding height position. The winch 42 is controlled by the controller 7, and then the arch bridge segment is pulled by the traction rope 41, so that the arch bridge segment is rotated around the central axis of the clamping head 63, and the posture of the arch bridge segment is adjusted, so that the arch bridge segment is accurately positioned at the corresponding splicing installation position.
