Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of bridge structure inspection and maintenance, and in particular to a steel box girder bridge box internal inspection and maintenance vehicle and a maintenance system thereof. Background Art

[0002] The completion of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge marks my country's official move from a major bridge country to a strong bridge country. In the new journey of building a strong bridge country, it is particularly important to develop new equipment, adopt new materials, use new technologies, and improve construction quality. As the number of bridge stocks gradually increases, one of the major changes is that the industry will gradually shift its focus from construction to inspection and maintenance. Compared with concrete structures, the durability of steel structures deserves more attention. The common defects of steel box girder bridges during operation mainly include:

[0003] (1) The main deterioration of steel box girder coatings include powdering, blistering, cracking, shedding, and rusting. Common corrosion forms of steel box girders include pitting, uniform corrosion, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion. (2) The fatigue cracking of steel box girders mainly appears in the form of cracks, which first crack at the weakest part of the main beam. After the continuous accumulation of fatigue damage during the entire service process, the cracks continue to expand and cause component failure. (3) With the increase in traffic volume and the increase in heavy-loaded vehicles, the damaged parts of the steel box girder may cause excessive deflection of the overall structure of the beam or local deformation of the component. If the deformation of the steel box girder is too large, it is easy to cause local instability or fatigue cracking, causing cracking and debonding of the bridge deck pavement. (4) The main connection methods of steel box girder components are weld connection and bolt connection. The main defects include weld fatigue cracking, desoldering, and leaking; bolt rust, loosening, and slippage.

[0004] In addition to these common diseases, there are also other diseases.
