Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pipe truss installation construction, and particularly relates to a flange plate adjusting device for a pipe truss structure and a construction method. BACKGROUND
[0002] A steel bar processing shed is a common temporary structure in a construction site, and a pipe truss structure is the most commonly used structure for the steel bar processing shed due to its light weight and low cost. However, due to the size and transportation restrictions, large pipe truss structure components cannot be integrally assembled on site, and therefore segmented flange plate nodes are required for segmented installation. The pipe truss structure generally has small rod sections and insufficient rigidity, and is prone to deformation during transportation, which causes the flange plate nodes to be misaligned during on-site installation. SUMMARY
[0003] In order to solve the problem of pipe truss installation alignment, the present application provides a flange plate adjusting device for a pipe truss structure and a construction method.
[0004] In one aspect, the present application provides a flange plate adjusting device for a pipe truss structure, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A flange plate adjusting device for a pipe truss structure comprises an outer toothed disc, an inner toothed disc, a fixed chuck, and a bolt. The outer toothed disc and the inner toothed disc are engaged by one-way ratchet teeth. The outer toothed disc and the inner toothed disc are connected to the fixed chuck by the bolt. The outer toothed disc and the fixed chuck clamp one side of the flange plate. The inner toothed disc and the fixed chuck clamp the other side of the flange plate. A rotating handle is installed on the fixed chuck.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer toothed disc, the inner toothed disc, the fixed chuck, and the bolt are connected to form a chuck for connecting the flange plate. The outer toothed disc and the inner toothed disc are engaged to form a detachable and adjustable connecting structure, which facilitates the tensioning of the pipe truss and the butt joint of the flange plate, and facilitates high-altitude work.
[0007] Preferably, the bolt is fixedly welded to the outer toothed disc and the inner toothed disc. Two bolts are welded to the outer toothed disc and the inner toothed disc, respectively. One of the bolts passes through a reserved hole in the flange plate during installation. The bolt passes through the fixed chuck and is fixed by a nut installed on one side.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the bolt is welded to the outer toothed disc and the inner toothed disc, which facilitates the installation of the outer toothed disc and the inner toothed disc on the flange plate by the bolt, and facilitates high-altitude work.
[0009] Preferably, 1-4 groups of flange plate adjusting devices are arranged on the same group of flange plates.
[0010] By adopting the technical scheme, the flange plate adjusting device effectively butts and adjusts the flange plates and keeps the two flange plates concentric with each other.
[0011] Preferably, the flange plate is provided with an alignment device, the alignment device comprises a laser emitter and a laser target, the laser emitter and the laser target are respectively installed on the two sides of the butted flange plates, the laser emitter and the laser target are respectively clamped and installed on the flange plate through a clamping clamp, the laser emitter emits laser through a reserved hole on the flange plate, and the laser target is arranged at the center of the reserved hole on the flange plate.
[0012] By adopting the technical scheme, the alignment device can conveniently mark the flange plate during adjustment, avoid visual deviation, and improve installation accuracy.
[0013] On the other hand, the flange plate adjusting construction method for the pipe truss structure provided by the present application adopts the following technical scheme:
[0014] The method comprises the following operation steps:
[0015] The pipe truss is hoisted to a predetermined installation position, and the pipe truss is placed in a continuous end-to-end manner;
[0016] The flange plate adjusting devices are respectively installed on the flange plates at the head and tail of the pipe truss;
[0017] The flange plates at the head and tail of the pipe truss are butted through the pulling device, and the flange plate adjusting devices on the flange plates are mutually buckled and installed;
[0018] The flange plate adjusting devices are adjusted so that the bolt holes on the butted flange plates at the head and tail of the pipe truss are aligned;
[0019] The pipe truss is connected and fixed through bolts or welding, and then the flange plate adjusting devices are removed.
[0020] By adopting the technical scheme, the flange plate adjusting device is used to adjust and align the pipe truss, the installation efficiency of the pipe truss is improved, and the construction personnel can conveniently install the pipe truss in the air.
[0021] Preferably, when the pipe truss is hoisted, the pipe truss is sequentially hoisted and placed according to the construction guidance and the marks on the pipe truss, the cumulative installation error is checked, and when the cumulative installation error exceeds a predetermined value, the installation is adjusted or compensated.
[0022] By adopting the technical scheme, the cumulative installation error is checked, and the error accumulation is prevented from excessively affecting the overall installation.
[0023] Preferably, the flange plate adjusting device is installed when the pipe truss is not hoisted or is installed after the pipe truss is hoisted.
[0024] By adopting the technical scheme, the installation without hoisting avoids high-altitude installation, reduces the difficulty of high-altitude operation, and is suitable for relatively low buildings after installation, and a smaller flange adjusting device is used.
[0025] Preferably, the pulling device tightens and fixes one end when the pipe truss is pulled, so that the whole is tensioned, and the flange adjusting device meshes the outer tooth disc and the inner tooth disc when buckling.
[0026] By adopting the technical scheme, the whole tensioning reduces deformation error and temperature error, and improves installation precision.
[0027] Preferably, the adjusting flange adjusting device monitors the internal stress change and torsional force of the pipe truss.
[0028] By adopting the technical scheme, the internal stress change and the torsional force are used to predict the installation fastening degree, so as to avoid insufficient or excessive tensioning force.
[0029] Preferably, the flange adjusting device sprays the installation workpiece contact surface before use.
[0030] By adopting the technical scheme, the sand blasting treatment is beneficial to improve the surface friction of the flange adjusting device and reduce the slip during adjustment.
[0031] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0032] 1. The outer tooth disc, the inner tooth disc, the fixed chuck and the bolt are connected to form a connecting flange clamp, and the outer tooth disc and the inner tooth disc are meshed to form a detachable and adjustable connecting structure, so that the pipe truss is tensioned and the flanges are connected, and the work in the air is facilitated.
[0033] 2.

[0034] 3. Utilize flange adjustment devices to adjust and align the tubular truss, improving installation efficiency and facilitating installation at heights by construction personnel. This allows for checking cumulative installation errors to prevent excessive error accumulation from affecting the overall installation. Installation before hoisting avoids high-altitude work, reducing the difficulty of such operations. Post-installation is suitable for lower buildings and requires fewer flange adjustment devices. Overall tensioning reduces deformation and temperature errors, improving installation accuracy. Internal stress changes and torsional force are used to predict the tightness of installation, preventing insufficient or excessive tension. Sandblasting improves the surface friction of the flange adjustment devices, reducing slippage during adjustment. Attached Figure Description
