(2) The lower anchor structure is fixedly connected to the anchoring structure at the lower end of the original hanger on the beam and fixedly installed on the beam; (3) The upper end of the temporary suspender is connected to the temporary anchor seat of the arch rib by automatic loading and unloading equipment, and the lower end of the temporary suspender is connected to the lower anchor structure, so that the temporary suspender is under stress and the original suspender is in a stress-free state. (4) Remove the upper end of the original hanger using automatic loading and unloading equipment; then cut the original hanger at the connection between the lower end of the original hanger and the anchoring structure, without damaging the anchoring structure of the lower end of the original hanger on the beam. The automatic loading and unloading equipment includes a main body, a controller, a drive motor, casters, a brake mechanism, a loading and unloading operating lever, an angle sensing device, and a servo; the loading and unloading operating lever is equipped with a hinged rotating arm, and the last section of the rotating arm is equipped with loading and unloading tools and a high-definition image acquisition unit, and a servo is installed at the hinged connection of the rotating arm; (5) Raise the new boom and use automatic loading and unloading equipment to install the upper end of the new boom at the connection between the upper end of the original boom and the arch rib; connect the lower end of the new boom to the lower anchor structure; the lower anchor structure includes an I-shaped upper and lower anchoring body and an anchoring connecting rod. The I-shaped upper anchoring body is welded to the anchoring structure on the beam. An anchoring connecting structure is set on the upper surface to connect the lower end of the temporary boom and the new boom; four through-hole jacks are installed on the lower surface; the I-shaped upper and lower anchoring bodies and the anchoring connecting rod are connected as one unit. The U-shaped anchorage lower connector is set at the lower part of the beam; New hanger preparation: a. Prepare wire rod containing the following weight ratios: Mn: 20-30, Cr: 3-5, C: 2-3, Cu: 1-2, Si: 0.5-0.8, Ni: 0.4-0.5, P: 0.03-0.04, S: 0.03-0.04; b. Place the wire rod in a heating furnace and heat at 950℃ for 30-30 minutes, then cool at a cooling rate of 15-20℃ / min; c. Surface treatment of the wire rod; d. Six cold-drawing processes of the wire rod using a winch, with a winch traction force of 30-35KN and a drum speed of 10-12 r / min; e. Galvanizing treatment, with a zinc coating of 230-240 g / m². 2 f. After cooling, coat its surface with an anti-corrosion layer; the anti-corrosion layer contains the following parts by weight: 35 parts benzyl silicone resin, 25 parts calcium silicate, 20 parts water-based epoxy resin, 20 parts rubber oil, 15 parts ceresin wax, 8 parts toluene-diphenyl phosphate, 8 parts rosin, and 6 parts 1,1,3(2-methyl-4-hydroxy-5-tert-butylphenyl)butane; g. Final surface treatment, and the product is obtained. (6) According to the designed tension of the new suspender, tension the new suspender in stages until the design value is reached; completely anchor the lower end of the new suspender to the lower anchor structure so that it reaches the normal service stress state; while tensioning the new suspender, release the cable force of the temporary suspender in stages; (7) Complete the replacement of the boom and dismantle the temporary boom and temporary facilities.

2. The method for replacing the hangers of a tied-arch bridge according to claim 1, characterized in that, In step (1), the construction workers stand on the lifting frame. When the lifting frame is raised to the height of the upper end of the boom, the temporary anchor seat of the arch rib is installed on the arch rib. The installation position is close to the connection between the upper end of the original boom and the arch rib. The automatic loading and unloading equipment can move on the lifting frame.

3. The method for replacing the hangers of a tied-arch bridge according to claim 2, characterized in that, In step (3), the upper end of the temporary suspender is connected to the anchor plate of the temporary anchor seat of the arch rib, and the lower end of the temporary suspender is connected to the anchor connection structure of the lower anchor structure; by monitoring the cable force of the original suspender, the constant load internal force of the original suspender is obtained, and the internal force is loaded and released step by step to gradually transfer the cable force of the original suspender to the temporary suspender; then, the temporary suspender is tensioned in stages by two through-hole jacks, and the stage tensioning is controlled in sequence as 0%, 15%, 35%, 50%, 70%, and 100%.

4. The method for replacing the hangers of a tied-arch bridge according to claim 3, characterized in that, In step (4), the original boom is cut by electric welding, and a crane is used to remove the original boom and place it in a designated area.

5. The method for replacing the hangers of a tied-arch bridge according to claim 4, characterized in that, In step (5), the lower end of the new auger is connected to the corresponding anchoring connection structure of the I-shaped anchoring upper connection body.

6. The method for replacing the hangers of a tied-arch bridge according to claim 5, characterized in that, In step (6), the cable force of the temporary suspender is converted into an equivalent force of the new suspender. After the new suspender is tensioned to the design value and the elevation is adjusted appropriately, the lower end of the new suspender is completely anchored to the lower anchor structure.
