Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of intelligent structural health monitoring, and particularly relates to an anchoring and lead-out structure and an operation method for a fiber optic self-monitoring FRP cable. Background Art

[0002] The fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) cable is prepared by anchoring multiple FRP rods, and has excellent properties of light weight, high strength and corrosion resistance. It can effectively overcome the problems of heavy self-weight and poor durability of traditional steel cables, and significantly improve the ultimate strength of the cable and its service life in a corrosive environment. Common types of FRP rods include: carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) rods, glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rods, basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) rods, etc. However, FRP rods are extremely brittle and have poor shear and compressive resistance. Sudden fracture failure may occur during the service of FRP cables, and debonding or shear failure may also occur at the anchoring end of the cable. Therefore, long-term damage monitoring of FRP cables is required.

[0003] Fiber optic monitoring technology can monitor signals such as temperature, strain and vibration of the surrounding environment, and has the advantages of stable signals, long distance and small sensors. It has been widely used in the health monitoring of civil engineering structures. Common fiber optic monitoring technologies include fiber Bragg grating sensing technology (FBG), weak grating sensing technology (mFBG), Brillouin scattering sensing technology (BOTDA / R), Rayleigh scattering optical time domain reflectometry (OTDR) and Rayleigh scattering optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR). After preparing a self-monitoring FRP rod by pultrusion process with fiber optic sensors, fibers and resins, not only the fragile fiber optic sensors are protected by the FRP layer, improving the durability of the sensors, but also the self-monitoring FRP rod can be used as a load-bearing member. Through the self-monitoring FRP rod, the damage of the FRP itself and the environmental structure can be monitored, meeting the requirements of structural function integration.

[0004] The anchoring problem of FRP rods / cables is a key factor affecting whether the FRP material can fully exert its tensile performance. The commonly used existing anchoring method for FRP cables is to split the center of the tail end of each rod body and embed a wedge block, and then pour grouting material into the anchor cup to anchor the cable. This not only achieves a reliable anchoring efficiency, but also facilitates the hoisting of the anchor during the anchoring process through the wedge block. However, splitting and embedding the wedge block of the rod body will cut off the optical fiber in the center of the self-monitoring FRP rod, hindering the lead-out of the optical fiber from the anchor and its connection to the equipment. Therefore, a method that does not affect the lead-out of the optical fiber in the center of the self-monitoring FRP rod body needs to be designed, and at the same time, the anchoring effect is the same as that of the existing single wedge block scheme. In addition, after the optical fiber is led out from the fiber optic anchor, the problem of internal grouting material leakage at the lead-out position of the optical fiber must be solved to prevent the leakage of uncured grouting material during placement and vibration.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a structure and its operating process that can simultaneously achieve high anchoring efficiency of the rod / cable, leadable end - fiber, and leak - proof anchor cup. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide an anchoring and lead - out structure and an operating method for a fiber - self - monitored FRP cable, so as to solve the problems of insufficient anchoring efficiency and the inability to lead out the fiber in the center of the rod during the preparation of the cable for the existing self - monitored FRP rod.

[0013] Furthermore, the rubber plug is in the shape of a stepped cylinder, and the larger - diameter end is clamped between the top plate and the pre - tightening plate.

[0014] Furthermore, a plurality of screws are provided on the end face of the anchor cup. After the pre - tightening plate passes through each screw, a nut is used to cooperate with the screw to drive the pre - tightening plate to move in the direction of pressing the rubber ring and the rubber plug.

[0015] Furthermore, a plurality of steps are provided inside the anchor cup, and the sub - rod plate and the top plate are clamped at the corresponding steps.

[0016] Further, the taper of the conical hole is less than 20°, and after double wedges are inserted into the two openings of the lead-out end, the taper is the same as that of the conical hole.

[0019] S2. Insert the wedges. Insert the double wedges into the cuts on both sides respectively, and ensure that the tail ends of the double wedges are flush with the tail ends of the side rod bodies on both sides;

It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other. The described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

Therefore, it cannot be understood as a limitation to the present invention. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "a plurality" is more than two, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0044] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific situations. Specific implementation manner one:

[0046] Referring to the accompanying drawings to illustrate this implementation manner, according to one aspect of the present invention, an anchoring and lead-out structure for an optical fiber self-monitoring FRP cable is provided, including:

[0047] An anchor cup 1, one end of which is sequentially connected with a rod separating plate 5, a top plate 9, and a pre-tightening plate 11 from inside to outside along the axis, and a tapered hole is provided on the rod separating plate 5;

[0048] There are multiple self - monitoring FRP rods 3. Each self - monitoring FRP rod 3 extends out from the anchor cup 1 to form an extension end. Openings are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the extension end. Inside the middle part between the two openings is a preset optical fiber 2. After inserting double - wedge blocks 4 into the two openings, they are inserted together into the tapered hole for rod body anchoring. Openings for the middle part to pass through are provided on both the top plate 9 and the pre - tightening plate 11. A washer 6 is arranged between one end of each double - wedge block 4 away from the anchor cup 1 and the top plate 9. Each rubber plug 10 is arranged corresponding to the self - monitoring FRP rod 3, limited between the top plate 9 and the pre - tightening plate 11, and one end is inserted into the opening of the top plate 9 for sealing the edge of the middle part and the opening of the top plate 9. Each middle part passes through the rubber plug 10 and then passes out from the pre - tightening plate 11;

[0049] A rubber ring 7 is arranged at the edge of the split rod plate 5 for sealing, and grouting resin is used to plug leaks in the cavity formed by the anchor cup 1 and the top plate 9. By setting a notch and embedding the double - wedge block 4, the optical fiber 2 in the middle can still be protected in the middle part of the rod body, so that the function of leading the optical fiber 2 outwards from inside the anchor can be realized, overcoming the defect that the traditional anchoring method cannot lead the wire outwards, and providing the possibility for the realization of optical fiber monitoring. The wedge - shaped angle formed by the combination of the double - wedge block 4 and the tail end of the self - monitoring FRP rod 3 is the same as the taper of the tapered hole, that is, the angle of a single wedge block is half of the taper of the tapered hole, so that the tail - end wedge of the self - monitoring FRP rod 3 matches the tapered hole. When the tail end of the self - monitoring FRP rod 3 and the double - wedge block form a wedge shape and are pressed into the tapered hole, the tapered hole can provide sufficient mechanical biting force and friction force for the rod body to realize rod body anchoring. On the premise of ensuring stability, the optical fiber 2 is ensured to be led out completely, and at the same time, the full - length strain distribution of the anchorage area is monitored completely. As attached Figure 9 As described, through the pull - out test verification, the load - displacement curves of the rod body under the two anchoring methods of the tail - end double - wedge block 4 and the traditional single - wedge block are consistent, proving that the double - wedge block has the same good anchoring effect as the single - wedge block. It should be noted that the structure of the double - wedge block 4 is adopted in this application, and the method of using multiple wedge blocks as a replacement can also be used in this application.

[0050] In this embodiment, the washer 6 is sleeved on the middle part of the self - monitoring FRP rod 3. The inner diameter of the washer 6 is kept consistent with the diameter of the middle part. The outer diameter of the washer 6 needs to be larger than the maximum width of the tail - end wedge of the rod. At the same time, the thickness of the double - wedge block 4 needs to be less than the thickness of the split rod body on both sides, and the length of the double - wedge block 4 needs to be equal to the depth of the split crack, so that the double - wedge block 4 is tightly pressed into the tapered hole of the split rod plate 5 by the washer 6 and does not come off. The inner diameter of the opening of the top plate 9 needs to be smaller than the outer diameter of the washer 6; thus, the top plate 9 can drive the wedge block at the rod end to be pressed into the tapered hole.

[0051] In this embodiment, a part of the FRP rod patch 8 is coupled to the outer wall of the middle part on the side of the washer 6 away from the anchor cup 1. The FRP rod patch 8 passes through the rubber plug 10 and then passes out through the opening of the pre-tightening plate 11. The FRP rod patch 8 is specifically formed by cutting a part of the side rod body, so that there is no need to separately obtain additional materials for the FRP rod patch 8, improving convenience and reducing costs.

[0052] In this embodiment, the rubber ring 7 is mainly arranged at the edge of the split rod plate 5 to improve the sealing performance. The prerequisite for the sealing performance is that the top plate 5 and the pre-tightening plate 11 press the rubber ring 7 at the joint position.

[0053] In this embodiment, the rubber plug 10 is in the shape of a stepped cylinder, and the larger diameter end is clamped between the top plate 9 and the pre-tightening plate 11. Regarding the realization of the leak plugging function, the outer diameter of the rubber ring 7 needs to be the same as the outer diameter of the top plate 9, and the inner diameter is smaller than the outer diameter of the split rod plate 5; thus ensuring that the rubber ring 7 completely covers the pores at the edge of the split rod plate 5. After the tail end of the self-monitoring FRP rod 3 is split, an FRP rod patch 8 needs to be re-pasted at the inserted section of the rubber plug 10 so that the middle part is restored to a round-section rod. At the same time, the outer diameter of the exposed section of the rubber plug 10 needs to be slightly larger than the opening of the top plate 9, and the inner diameter of the rubber plug 10 needs to be slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the round-section rod, so as to ensure close contact when the rubber plug 10 is inserted into the pores between the opening of the top plate 9 and the round-section rod.

[0054] In this embodiment, a plurality of screw rods 12 are arranged on the end face of the anchor cup 1. After the pre-tightening plate 11 passes through each screw rod 12, the nut 13 is used in cooperation with the screw rod 12 to drive the pre-tightening plate 11 to move in the direction of pressing the rubber ring 7 and the rubber plug 10, further improving the leak prevention effect.

[0055] In this embodiment, a plurality of steps are arranged inside the anchor cup 1, and the split rod plate 5 and the top plate 9 are clamped at the corresponding steps. The inside of the anchor cup 1 is conical. After the double wedge blocks 4 of the tail end self-monitoring FRP rod 3 are anchored and the lead wires are completed, grouting material needs to be poured inside the anchor cup 1. After the grouting material is completely cured, the overall anchoring of the cable is realized. The tail end of the anchor cup 1 is provided with three layers of steps, namely inner, middle and outer, and the step diameters are the same as those of the split rod plate 5, the top plate 9, and the pre-tightening plate 11 in sequence, which are respectively used to realize the limiting and forward pre-tightening extrusion functions of the split rod plate 5, the top plate 9, and the pre-tightening plate 11. The number and layout positions of the self-monitoring FRP rods 3 are set according to the engineering requirements. For ordinary FRP rods without optical fibers in the cable, there is no need to set the openings of the top plate 9 and the pre-tightening plate 11 at the corresponding positions, and a single wedge block or double wedge block 4 anchoring method can be selected.

[0056] In this embodiment, the taper of the conical hole is less than 20°. After the double wedge blocks 4 are inserted into the two openings of the lead-out end, the taper is the same as that of the conical hole.
