Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of slope structure engineering technology, specifically to a horizontal support end connection and fixing device for slope structure and its usage method. Background Technology

The construction industry is no exception; novel and unique design styles attract more attention, and sloping structures are emerging in large numbers.

[0003] The bottom of the sloping structure involves complex installation and various decoration projects. Sometimes, to make better use of space or because the slope of the sloping structure is large, it is necessary to install steel frames within the sloping structure to ensure the quality of the fixed installation and decoration projects. In order to better ensure the stability of the steel frame, the ends of the steel frame supports need to be fixed. When the ends of the supports come into contact with the sloping structure, fixing is inconvenient, which reduces the construction quality of the grid structure and brings great difficulty to the construction. Summary of the Invention

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a horizontal support end connection and fixing device for a slope structure and its usage method. This solves the problem of complex installation and decoration works at the bottom of slope structures. Sometimes, considering space utilization or the steepness of the slope, and to ensure the quality of the installation and decoration work, steel frames need to be installed within the slope structure. To better ensure the stability of the steel frame, the ends of the steel frame supports need to be fixed. However, when the ends of the supports contact the slope structure, fixing becomes inconvenient, reducing the construction quality of the grid structure and posing significant challenges to the construction process.

[0006] (II) Technical Solution

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution: a horizontal support end connection and fixing device for a slope structure, comprising a large slope structure and a small slope structure. When the angle between the slope surface and the horizontal plane is less than 45 degrees, it is considered a small slope structure; when the angle between the slope surface and the horizontal plane is greater than or equal to 45 degrees, it is considered a large slope structure.

[0008] The large slope structure also includes a horizontal plate, a lower connecting plate on the right side of the horizontal plate, a vertical plate on the left side of the horizontal plate, an upper connecting plate on the right side of the vertical plate, and connecting holes on both the upper and lower connecting plates. A horizontal member is provided on the left side of the vertical plate, and an expansion bolt is inserted through the connecting hole. One end of the expansion bolt is embedded in the bottom surface of the large slope structure.

[0009] The small slope structure also includes a horizontal plate, an inclined plate on the right side of the horizontal plate, a lower connecting plate on the right side of the inclined plate, a vertical plate on the left side of the horizontal plate, and an upper connecting plate on the right side of the vertical plate. Both the upper and lower connecting plates are provided with connecting holes. A horizontal member is provided on the left side of the vertical plate. An expansion bolt is inserted through the connecting hole, and one end of the expansion bolt is embedded in the bottom surface of the large slope structure.

[0010] Preferably, in the large slope structure, the upper connecting piece is 50mm long, and the middle connecting hole is circular with a diameter of 13mm to ensure that the expansion bolt can be effectively fixed. There is an angle between the upper connecting piece and the vertical piece. After installation, the vertical piece is vertically downward to ensure that the top of the upper connecting piece is parallel to the large slope structure. The vertical piece is 100mm high, and the vertical piece is connected to the horizontal piece at a 90-degree angle with a length of 100mm. The lower connecting piece is 50mm long.

[0011] Preferably, in the small slope structure, the upper connecting piece is 50mm long, and the middle connecting hole is circular with a diameter of 13mm to ensure that the expansion bolt can be effectively fixed. There is an angle between the upper connecting piece and the vertical piece. After installation, the vertical piece is vertically downward, ensuring that the top of the upper connecting piece is parallel to the small slope structure. The vertical piece is 100mm high and connects to the horizontal piece at a 90-degree angle, with a length of 100mm. The horizontal piece connects to the inclined piece, and the inclined piece forms an interior angle of 135 degrees with the horizontal piece, that is, the inclined piece is perpendicular to the small slope structure. The length varies according to the slope of the small slope structure. The lower connecting piece is 50mm long.

[0012] A method for using a horizontal support end connection and fixing device to a slope structure, comprising the horizontal support end connection and fixing device to a slope structure, the specific operation of which is as follows:

[0013] Step 1: First, determine the angle of the slope structure and select the type of device to use. When the angle between the slope surface and the horizontal plane is less than 45 degrees, use a small slope structure. When the angle between the slope surface and the horizontal plane is greater than or equal to 45 degrees, use a large slope structure. All structures used in both the small and large slope structures, except for the slope itself, are collectively referred to as connectors.

[0014] Step 2: First, install the steel frame structure. When processing the horizontal components, control the distance between their ends and the slope structure to be 50mm to 80mm to ensure that the ends of the horizontal components can make close contact with the vertical pieces of the connectors when the connectors are installed.

[0015] Step 3: Align the upper and lower connecting pieces of the connector with the slope along the slope direction of the slope structure. The specific selection depends on the situation. Move the connector until the vertical piece is close to the end of the horizontal component and the end of the horizontal component is in the middle area of ​​the vertical piece.

[0016] Step 4: Drive the expansion bolts into the ramp structure through the connection holes, and fix the connector to the ramp structure firmly and reliably;

[0017] Step 5: Weld the end of the horizontal component to the contact point of the vertical plate by electric welding. Alternatively, other adapters can be pre-welded onto the vertical plate and then hinged to the horizontal component.
