At least two parallel vertical first web plates are provided between the two steel pipes. The number of first web plates depends on the diameter of the steel pipes. The upper and lower ends of each first web plate are connected to the two steel pipes, respectively. A cavity is formed between the two steel pipes and the two adjacent first web plates.

[0052] Among them, as an embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 4 , the number of third reinforcing plates in the second reinforcing assembly 7 is multiple, and the multiple third reinforcing plates are uniformly distributed along the circumference of the single pipe cross brace 1.

[0053] Multiple third reinforcing plates are evenly distributed on the circumferential outer wall of the single tube cross brace 1 to make the connection between the single tube cross brace 1 and the connecting plate 3 more stable, so as to make the connection strength of the connection structure higher.

[0054] The present invention also provides a method for connecting a single tube cross brace 1 and a dumbbell-shaped arch rib 2, including the connection device for the single tube cross brace 1 and the dumbbell-shaped arch rib 2 as described above, comprising the following steps:

[0055] S1. Determine the distance, shape, and size of the connecting plate 3 from the first web plate 22, and prepare it accordingly;

[0056] S2. Sequentially determine the shape and size of the second web plate 4, the first reinforcing plate 51, the second reinforcing plate 52, the first support plate 61, the second support plate 62, the third support plate 63, and the third reinforcing plate;

[0057] S3. Weld the two second web plates 4 to the round tube 21 and the first web plate 22, and weld the first reinforcing plate 51 and the second reinforcing plate 52 to the second web plate 4 and the first web plate 22 respectively.

[0058] S4. Weld the two first support plates 61 to the round tube 21 and the first web plate 22, and weld the second support plate 62 and the third support plate 63 to the first support plate 61 and the first web plate 22 respectively.

[0059] S5. Weld the connecting plate 3 to the second web plate 4, the first reinforcing plate 51 and the second reinforcing plate 52.

[0060] S6. Weld multiple third reinforcing plates onto the single-tube cross brace 1, and weld the third reinforcing plates and the single-tube cross brace 1 onto the connecting plate 3.

[0061] Specifically, in this device, the distance from the left top surface to the center line of the arch rib is 0.9 to 1.0D1 to ensure reasonable force transmission of the second web plate 4 and to ensure welding space for the second reinforcing plate 52. The connecting plate 3 is square, and the side length of the square connecting plate is denoted as L. L is selected as 1.5 to 1.6D2 to meet the force and welding requirements of the third reinforcing plate, where D1 is the outer diameter of the circular tube 21 and D2 is the outer diameter of the single tube cross brace 1. Specifically, the distance between the two second web plates 4 in this device is 0.8D2.

[0062] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the second web 4 is a trapezoid with rounded corners. The side length of the short side of the trapezoid is L-2△, and the value of △ is in the range of 10 to 50 mm. The second web 4 forms the intersection point 41 of the line connecting the endpoint 42 of the short side of the trapezoid, the center 24 of the circular tube, and the outer wall of the circular tube. In this device, the shape and size of the second web 4 are determined by the intersection of the endpoint 42 of the short side of the trapezoid, the intersection point 41, and the line of intersection between the second web 4 and the dumbbell-shaped arch rib 2.

[0063] Further, the third reinforcing plate can be arranged at the outer side of the single-pipe cross brace 1 at equal intervals.

[0064] Further, the center of the first reinforcing plate 51 coincides with the center line of the single-pipe cross brace 1 and is parallel to the arch axis of the concrete-filled steel tube arch rib, and the second reinforcing plate 52 is arranged in the same plane as the first reinforcing plate.

[0065] Further, in the device, the single-pipe cross brace, the connecting plate 3, the third reinforcing plate, the second web plate 4, the first reinforcing plate 51, the second reinforcing plate 52, the first support plate 61, the second support plate 62, and the third support plate 63, and the circular tube 21 and the first web plate 22 of the dumbbell-shaped arch rib 2 are all welded by welding seams, which can be one or more of fillet welds or fusion welds.

[0066] The specific working process of the present application is as follows: the connecting plate 3 and the first web plate 22 of the dumbbell-shaped arch rib 2 are arranged in parallel and at intervals, used to connect the single-pipe cross brace 1 and make the single-pipe cross brace 1 perpendicular to the first web plate 22, the second web plate 4 is arranged in parallel and at intervals between the first web plate 22 and the connecting plate 3 and is connected with the connecting plate 3, the first web plate 22, and the circular tube 21, the first reinforcing assembly 5 is connected with the connecting plate 3, the first web plate 22, and the second web plate 4, used to improve the connection strength between the connecting plate 3, the first web plate 22, and the second web plate 4. Compared with the prior art, the single-pipe cross brace 1 is connected to the dumbbell-shaped arch rib 2 through the connecting structure of the connecting plate 3, the two second web plates 4, and the first reinforcing assembly 5, instead of the double-pipe connecting structure in the prior art, to meet the strength requirements of construction, while saving and reducing the engineering supply through the connecting structure of the connecting plate 3, the two second web plates 4, and the first reinforcing assembly 5.

[0067] Further, the single-pipe cross brace 1 can be reliably connected with the concrete-filled steel tube of the arch rib and the first web plate 22 without being limited by its own size through the connecting structure of the device, which avoids large deformation of the first web plate 22 and discontinuous intersecting line weld connections between the single-pipe cross brace 1 and the first web plate 22, eliminates local stress concentration problems, ensures the connection quality, and improves the durability of the joint structure.

[0068] The device can solve the technical problem of high engineering cost caused by deformation when resisting lateral force transmission through the double-pipe connecting structure in the prior art through the above structure.

[0069] The above description is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any changes or replacements within the technical scope disclosed by the present application can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art and should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
