Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of steel wire fatigue testing, and in particular to a device and method for testing bending friction corrosion fatigue of main cable steel wires of a suspension bridge. Background Art

[0002] my country's bridge construction has entered the era of crossing rivers and seas. Multi-tower and multi-span suspension bridges achieve ultra-long span bearing capacity by adding intermediate cable towers on the basis of traditional double-tower suspension bridges. They have the advantages of reducing main cable tension, anchorage scale, main span length and comprehensive cost. A suspension bridge (mainly including main cables, cable towers, anchors, slings and stiffening beams) is a suspension system that uses main cables and slings as stiffening beams to transfer loads to cable towers and anchors. The main cable is the key load-bearing structure of a suspension bridge. At the cable tower position, the cross-sectional profile of the main cable is hexagonal. Each main cable is composed of multiple parallel cable strands, and each cable strand is composed of multiple parallel high-strength galvanized steel wires. Therefore, the service status of the main cable directly affects the load-bearing safety and reliability of the suspension bridge.

[0003] The main cables of large-span multi-tower suspension bridges across rivers and seas are subjected to variable load characteristics of the main cables on both sides of the saddle due to wind loads, dead loads (loads of the bridge deck system, stiffening beams, main cables, slings, etc.) and live loads of vehicles. When the main cables bend and pass through the saddle grooves, the variable loads of the main cables on both sides of the saddles cause bending fatigue stress of the steel wires inside the main cables, dynamic contact loads and relative slip between the bent steel wires and between the bent steel wires and the saddle grooves, that is, bending friction fatigue of the main cable steel wires. At the same time, the atmospheric environment of rivers and seas has the characteristics of high humidity, high salt mist (NaCl, MgCl2, etc.), and easy formation of acid rain, and is easy to form electrolyte corrosion solutions with different salt concentrations and pH values. Electrolyte corrosion solution can invade and stay in the main cable during the installation period (more than 1 year). During the service period of the bridge, due to the lack of wire protection at the main cable saddle, loose sealing of the cable strand inlet and outlet, and wind and rain, the corrosion solution invades and accumulates in the gap of the main cable. Therefore, the main cable of a large-span multi-tower suspension bridge across the river and the sea will be in the electrolyte corrosion solution for a long time. Therefore, the coupling effect of bending friction fatigue of the main cable steel wire and electrolyte corrosion solution can easily cause bending friction corrosion fatigue damage of the main cable steel wire, which in turn causes friction wear, electrochemical corrosion, fatigue crack initiation and expansion, and fracture characteristics of the steel wire under different friction pairs, thereby reducing the effective cross-sectional area and bearing capacity of the main cable, and further affecting the bearing safety of the main cable. For this reason, a bending friction corrosion fatigue test device and method for the main cable steel wire of a suspension bridge are urgently needed to reveal the damage and failure mechanism of the main cable steel wire during the bending friction corrosion fatigue process, which is of great significance to prolonging the service life of the main cable steel wire, improving the safety and reliability of the main cable bearing, and ensuring the service safety of the suspension bridge.

[0004] The test devices related to steel wire friction fatigue include: Chinese patent CN111855163A discloses a test device and method for reciprocating tensile friction wear of steel wire rope, which makes the steel wire rope reciprocate through a winch and a pulley block, and applies axial fatigue stress to the steel wire rope using a weight counterweight. The device cannot achieve friction measurement and electrochemical corrosion during bending fatigue; Chinese patent CN107290234B discloses a test system and method for determining the fatigue life of corroded steel wire, which applies axial fatigue load to the steel wire through the reciprocating motion of a jack, and uses a corrosive solution to pre-corrode the test steel wire for a period of time before the test. The device cannot achieve the simultaneous effects of steel wire bending fatigue and the coupled effects of bending fatigue and electrochemical corrosion; Chinese patent CN104297046B discloses a device and method for monitoring the fretting friction fatigue state of steel wire, which can realize multi-axis fretting fatigue experiments of steel wire under composite motion modes such as pull-pull fatigue, torsion and variable cross angle swing, but cannot realize the application of steel wire bending fatigue and electrochemical corrosion environment; Chinese patent CN101598647B discloses a steel wire fretting fatigue testing machine and method, which can realize steel wire fretting fatigue testing under the coupled effects of fretting wear and axial fatigue stress, but cannot realize the application of steel wire bending fatigue and electrochemical corrosion environment.

After the two components of the corrosion groove 47 are fastened together by bolt connection, the size of the rectangular groove at the bottom of the connected corrosion groove 47 is adapted to the rectangular size of the saddle groove plate 46. There are grooves on the left and right sides of the corrosion groove 47 for the fatigue steel wire to pass through. The grooves ensure that the fatigue steel wire and the corrosion groove 47 do not interfere with each other during the experiment.

[0059] The saddle groove mounting plate 62 has ear plates at the left and right ends of the upper half, and the left and right ear plates have four through holes corresponding to the positions of the threaded holes on the left and right ear plates of the saddle groove plate 46. The saddle groove plate 46 and the saddle groove mounting plate 62 are connected by threads, and the saddle groove part is prone to wear and failure. Making the saddle groove plate 46 and the saddle groove mounting plate 62 into a split type is conducive to replacing the saddle groove plate 46 that has worn and failed in subsequent fatigue experiments; in terms of space, the center of the circle corresponding to the arc of the saddle groove on the saddle groove plate 46 exists on the saddle groove mounting plate 62, and the distance L from any point on the saddle groove to the center of the circle is the size of the force arm in the torque calculation. Four threaded holes are opened on the saddle groove mounting plate 62 and are evenly distributed in a circle with the center position, and the distance from the threaded hole to the center position should match the position and size of the through holes on the flanges 1 63 and 2 61;

[0060] The axes of the rotating shaft 1 24, the rotating shaft 2 48, the thick shaft 1 51, the thick shaft 2 53, the deep groove ball bearing 1 22, the deep groove ball bearing 2 59, the flange 1 63, the flange 2 61, the flange 3 49, the flange 4 50, the flange 5 52, the flange 6 57, and the flange 7 56 are all on the same horizontal line as the center positions of the arcs and the wrap angles on the saddle plate 46;

[0061] The rotating shaft support plate is a T-shaped plate, which is connected to the upper table 12 of the base frame through threads;

[0062] The fixing frame 55 is fixed by a triangular reinforcing rib 54 to ensure verticality and enhance structural reliability. The fixing frame 55 is fixed to the upper table 12 of the base frame by threaded connection;

[0063] During the fatigue test, the micro-motion fatigue steel wire and the saddle groove are in surface contact and there is friction, and the friction is finally transmitted to the torque sensor 58 through the saddle groove plate 46, the saddle groove plate mounting frame, and the rotating shaft; in the torque transmission assembly, one end of the torque sensor 58 is supported by a rotatable shaft and a deep groove ball bearing to achieve torque transmission, and the other end is connected to the fixed frame 55 for fixation, thereby achieving torque transmission and measurement. The friction between the fatigue steel wire and the saddle groove is obtained from the measurement data of the torque sensor 58 and the known size L of the fixed force arm, thereby achieving indirect measurement of the friction between the fatigue steel wire and the saddle groove by the torque sensor 58.

[0064] A method for testing bending friction corrosion fatigue of main cable steel wires of a suspension bridge, the specific method is as follows:

[0065] a. Use a support rod to support the bottom of the pressure sensor adapter plate 28 to prop up the constant pressure loading system, place two sections of steel wire slightly longer than the arc length of the double wire clamp in the arc groove of the double wire clamp in turn, tighten the fastening screws of the double wire clamp, and use a pointed pliers to bend the excess steel wire at both ends of the double wire clamp upward;

[0066] b. Turn on the servo electric cylinder 19 and the inverter power supply, connect the inverter through the servo controller to control the servo electric cylinder 19, adjust the number of pulses with the servo controller, so that the telescopic rod of the electric cylinder 19 moves upward for a period of time, and stop the displacement action of the electric cylinder 19;

[0067] c. Fix one end of the fatigue steel wire on the single wire clamp 2 8, pass the other end of the fatigue steel wire through the large steering wheel 2 9, the saddle groove on the saddle groove plate 46, the large steering wheel 14 in sequence, and fix it on the single wire clamp 15; use the servo controller to adjust the number of pulses so that the telescopic rod of the servo electric cylinder 19 moves downward for a certain distance until the fatigue steel wire is in a tensioned state, and stop the displacement action of the electric cylinder 19;

[0068] d. The corrosion groove 47 is installed on the saddle groove plate 46, and the corrosion groove 47 and the saddle groove plate 46 are filled with waterproof glue, and the gap between the fatigue wire is filled, and the waterproof glue is solidified to play a waterproof role, and the corrosion solution is added to the corrosion groove 47;

[0069] e. Remove the support rod supported at the bottom of the pressure sensor adapter plate 28, hold the constant pressure loading system by hand during the removal process, slowly lower the constant pressure loading system, and place the fatigue wire of the saddle groove arc segment directly below the middle position of the two curved parallel wires clamped by the upper double wire clamp;

[0070] f. Turn on the power of the flat-plate pressure sensor 29, torque sensor 58, S-type tension sensor 16, S-type tension sensor 2 7, connect each sensor to the acquisition card, host computer software and reset the initial reading of the sensor;

[0071] g. Consider the deadweight of the constant pressure loading device. If the deadweight of the constant pressure loading device is greater than the required constant pressure, use wire ropes to connect the eye nuts at the four corners of the loading tray in sequence, and pass the wire ropes through the first, second, and third sheave frames. Hang a counterweight at the end of the wire rope to offset the deadweight of the constant pressure loading system. If the deadweight of the constant pressure loading system is less than the required constant pressure, place a weight of appropriate weight on the loading tray. Through the above operations, the required constant pressure can be obtained.

[0072] h. Change the frequency and forward and reverse rotation of the servo motor to control the speed, position and direction of the telescopic rod of the electric cylinder. The constant loading pressure is measured by a flat pressure sensor, the torque generated by the friction between the fatigue steel wire and the saddle groove is measured by a torque sensor, and the tension of the movable end and the fixed end of the fatigue steel wire is measured by S-type tension sensor 1 and S-type tension sensor 2. The total friction between the fatigue steel wire and the bending parallel loading steel wire and the fatigue steel wire and the saddle groove is obtained by the tension difference of the two S-type tension sensors. The friction between the fatigue steel wire and the loading steel wire and between the fatigue steel wire and the saddle groove can be obtained by subsequent data processing of the tension difference of the S-type tension sensor and the torque value of the torque sensor. The friction between the fatigue steel wire and the loading steel wire and between the fatigue steel wire and the saddle groove can be obtained. Changing the constant loading pressure can study the bending friction corrosion fatigue behavior of the steel wire under different contact loads, and the data of each sensor force can be recorded in real time until the fatigue steel wire produces observable wear.
