Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a kiln tail concrete column, in particular to a reinforcement structure of a steel tube concrete column used in a kiln tail and a reinforcement method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The cement industry is energy-intensive and highly polluting, requiring energy-saving and carbon-reduction upgrades. Capacity upgrades in the cement industry typically involve upgrading the kiln tail preheater by expanding the capacity of the precalciner and cyclone. Typically, a five-stage preheater is added to achieve increased production capacity. However, this approach increases the overall load on the kiln tail frame, potentially limiting the bearing capacity of the existing frame columns, necessitating reinforcement.

[0003] The kiln tail frame's frame columns are typically constructed of concrete-filled steel tubes (CFSTs), meaning concrete is filled into steel tubes. Existing reinforcement methods for circular reinforced concrete columns primarily include welded steel tubes with increased cross-sections and externally bonded steel reinforcement. The welded steel tube method involves welding the newly added steel tubes over the existing steel tube columns, pouring fine stone concrete or grouting material, and installing weld studs on both the inner and outer walls to enhance interoperability between the new and existing structures. However, this method requires reductions in the new structure during load analysis, underutilizing the material and resulting in poor economic efficiency. The addition of new structures also requires polishing and rust removal of the existing steel tubes, resulting in a long construction period. The bonded steel method uses structural adhesive to bond the newly added steel plates to the existing steel tube columns. This method requires thorough paint and rust removal of the existing steel columns, requiring reductions in the new structure during load analysis. Furthermore, structural adhesives are expensive, resulting in poor overall economic efficiency. The thickness of the externally bonded steel plates is limited, resulting in limited load-bearing capacity, temperature sensitivity, and the potential for rapid aging, resulting in poor durability.

[0004] It can be seen that in order to ensure that the newly added parts can bear the same load as the original structure, conventional reinforcement methods usually require suspension of work and production, dismantling of original equipment, unloading of structural loads, and reinstallation after the reinforcement is completed. This will result in long construction time and poor economic efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0031] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a reinforcement structure of a steel tube concrete column for a kiln tail is set based on the steel tube concrete column, including a top annular node plate 101 and a bottom annular node plate 115 fixedly set on the outside of the concrete column, and six groups of supporting steel pipes 102 set on the periphery of the concrete column.

[0033] A top head plate 104 is provided at the top of the supporting steel pipe 102, and the top head plate 104 is welded and fixed to the supporting steel pipe 102; six groups of top node ear plates 103 are evenly provided at the bottom of the top annular node plate 101, and the top node ear plates 103 are welded and fixed to the top annular node plate 101; the top node ear plates 103 and the top head plate 104 are both provided with bolt holes, which are hingedly connected by bolts one by one, so as to realize the connection between the upper end of the supporting steel pipe 102 and the top annular node plate 101.

[0034] A bracket is provided above the bottom annular node plate 115, and the bracket includes a middle annular node plate 114 and a support 112. The middle annular node plate 114 is sleeved on the outside of the concrete column and is welded to the bottom annular node plate 115 through a number of stiffening ribs 116. There are six groups of supports 112, which are welded and fixed above the middle annular node plate 114, corresponding to the support steel pipe 102, and a bottom node ear plate 110 is welded to the top thereof. A bottom head plate 111 is provided at the bottom end of the support steel pipe 102, and the bottom head plate 111 is welded and fixed to the support steel pipe 102. The bottom node ear plate 110 and the bottom head plate 111 are both provided with bolt holes, which are hingedly connected one by one by bolts to realize the connection between the bottom end of the support steel pipe 102 and the bottom annular node plate 115.

[0035] In order to improve the stability of the reinforcement structure, a lateral restraint 107 is provided between two adjacent support steel pipes 102, such as Figure 3 As shown, the lateral restraint 107 is a circular steel tube that connects two adjacent support steel tubes 102. A gusset plate 109 is welded to one end of the lateral restraint 107, which is provided with bolt holes. The other end is welded to one support steel tube 102. Correspondingly, one side of the support steel tube 102 is welded to the lateral restraint 107, and the other side is provided with a connecting lug 108, which is welded to the support steel tube 102 and has oblong holes for mounting bolts. The connecting lug 108 and the gusset plate 109 are hingedly connected by bolts, connecting the upper ends of the support steel tubes 102 to the lateral restraint 107 and allowing the lateral restraint 107 to move relative to the support steel tube 102 under load.

[0036] In order to further improve the stability of the reinforced structure, radial constraints are provided between the supporting steel pipe 102 and the concrete column, such as Figure 3 As shown. The radial restraint includes a T-shaped restraint member 105 and an L-shaped restraint member 106. The T-shaped restraint member 105 is composed of two rectangular steel plates welded vertically, and the end of its web is welded to the supporting steel pipe 102.

The flange plate of the T-shaped restraint member 105 is restricted in the formed T-shaped groove to limit the position of the T-shaped restraint member 105.

[0042] (4) A lateral restraint 107 is welded to one side of the supporting steel pipe 102, and a connecting lug 108 is welded to the other side. An oblong hole for mounting bolts is provided on the connecting lug 108. The lateral restraint 107 is a circular steel pipe, and a gusset plate 109 is welded to the end thereof not welded to the supporting steel pipe 102. The gusset plate 109 and the connecting lug 108 are hingedly connected by bolts.

[0043] (5) A bottom end plate 111 is welded to the bottom end of the supporting steel pipe 102, and the bottom end plate 111 is welded to the circular end plate at the bottom of the supporting steel pipe 102; a middle annular node plate 114 is set on the outside of the original steel tube concrete column, an H-shaped steel support 112 is welded on the middle annular node plate 114 corresponding to the supporting steel pipe 102, and a bottom node ear plate 110 is welded on the top of the H-shaped steel support 112.

[0045] (7) Several stiffening ribs 116 are welded between the middle annular node plate 114 and the bottom annular node plate 115. The stiffening ribs 116 are arranged between adjacent jacks 113. After all the stiffening ribs 116 are welded, the jacks 113 are removed one by one. At this time, the reinforcement is completed.

[0046] The present invention reinforces the original structure without destroying it, and can ensure the safety of the original structure during the reinforcement construction process; the various reinforcement structures of the present invention are all steel structures, and an assembled full-steel structure reinforcement scheme is adopted, which is fixed by welding and bolts, and the construction method is convenient and the construction difficulty is low; during the construction process, the stress of the original structure column can be unloaded by applying pre-pressure, and there is no need to dismantle existing equipment, which can greatly shorten the construction period, and the construction convenience and economy are high.
