Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of bridge maintenance equipment, in particular to a full-coverage maintenance system for a basket-lift type steel structure arch bridge with a large span and wide bridge deck. Background Art

[0002] Steel arch bridges require frequent maintenance during their long service life. Traditional arch bridge maintenance usually uses equipment such as bridge deck climbing vehicles and maintenance baskets. The bridge deck climbing vehicle can lift maintenance personnel to a certain height, making it convenient to inspect and maintain the bridge structure close to the bridge deck; the maintenance basket can be suspended on the bridge deck, allowing maintenance personnel to approach the arch ribs and other parts for operation.

[0003] However, for a large-span, wide-deck basket-type steel arch bridge, its structural characteristics are very different from those of a conventional arch bridge. This type of arch bridge has the characteristics of a wide deck, a large span, a high arch rib height, and an inclined arch rib surface. First, due to its wide deck and large span, traditional maintenance equipment has limitations in coverage, and it is difficult to achieve full coverage maintenance of the main beam, arch rib, and arch rib wind brace. For example, the operating range of the bridge deck aerial platform is limited, and it is difficult to reach the higher position and inclined surface of the arch rib; the maintenance basket may not be able to be stably suspended and moved in the case of a large span and wide bridge deck, and it is impossible to fully inspect the arch rib and wind brace. Secondly, the use of traditional maintenance equipment will increase the safety risks of maintenance personnel. Under the complex structure of a large-span, wide-deck basket-type steel arch bridge, maintenance personnel may face an unstable working environment when using traditional equipment, such as the shaking of the aerial platform when the height and span are large, and the imbalance of the basket when operating on the inclined arch rib surface, which poses a potential threat to the life safety of maintenance personnel. In addition, the maintenance volume of this type of arch bridge is also large, and the efficiency and effect of traditional equipment cannot meet its maintenance needs, which may not only lead to incomplete and untimely maintenance, but also increase the maintenance cost and operation risk of the bridge. Therefore, a full-coverage maintenance system suitable for large-span and wide-deck arch bridges is urgently needed. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention proposes a full-coverage maintenance system for a large-span wide-deck basket-type steel structure arch bridge, which includes a fully enclosed truss structure maintenance vehicle at the bottom of the beam, a walking, telescopic and rotating truss maintenance vehicle on the arch, an access channel to the main beam top plate, a maintenance through channel between the main beam and the arch rib, and an internal channel of the arch rib wind brace. The above structural settings can achieve full-coverage maintenance and reduce the safety risks of maintenance personnel.

[0005] In order to achieve the above objectives, the present invention specifically adopts the following technical means:

[0006] A full-coverage maintenance system for a large-span, wide-deck basket-type steel structure arch bridge, the steel structure arch bridge comprises a main beam, arch ribs, and wind braces, wherein the wind braces are located between the arch ribs, a first maintenance vehicle is installed at the bottom of the beam, and a second maintenance vehicle is installed on the arch ribs; a first manhole and a first ladder are opened at the top of the main beam for personnel maintenance; a second manhole is opened at the junction of the main beam and the arch rib, and a second ladder is installed inside, the second manhole is used to realize the through-going of the maintenance passage inside the arch rib and the main beam.

[0007] Furthermore, the first maintenance vehicle is a truss structure, which is installed in an enclosing manner along the bottom of the main beam. The first maintenance vehicle can move along the longitudinal bridge to the bottom of the main beam to achieve maintenance of the outer surface of the main beam.

[0008] Furthermore, the second maintenance vehicle can climb the slope along the longitudinal direction of the arch rib, and some of its trusses can be extended and rotated vertically and horizontally through mechanical devices. The second maintenance vehicle can realize the maintenance of the arch rib and the outer surface of the wind brace.

[0009] Furthermore, the interior of the main beam is a hollow structure, which meets the needs of traffic.

[0010] Furthermore, the arch ribs and wind braces are box-type structures, and the inner cavity thereof can be used for passage.

[0011] Furthermore, the arch rib partition has a third manhole and a third ladder; a fourth manhole is opened at the junction of the arch rib and the wind brace, which is used for the internal maintenance channel of the arch rib and the wind brace to pass through.

[0012] The present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0013] The maintenance vehicle with truss structure is installed in the surrounding installation at the bottom of the main beam. The above-mentioned surrounding installation enables the maintenance vehicle to cover the outer surface of the main beam in all directions. And it can move along the longitudinal bridge to the bottom of the main beam, realizing comprehensive and flexible maintenance of the bottom of the main beam.

[0014] The arch is equipped with a maintenance gantry, which can climb the slope in the longitudinal direction, and can be extended and rotated in the transverse and vertical directions, so that it can cover the entire outer surface of the arch ribs and wind braces, thereby realizing the maintenance of the outer surface of the arch ribs and wind braces.

[0015] A manhole and ladder are opened at the top of the main beam to facilitate personnel to enter the main beam through the manhole and reach different maintenance positions with the help of the ladder, thus realizing the maintenance of the main beam. A manhole is opened at the junction of the main beam and the arch rib, and a ladder is installed inside. This design realizes the connection of the arch rib and the maintenance passage inside the main beam. Personnel can move conveniently between the arch rib and the main beam through the manhole and ladder to inspect the junction and the interior of the two.

[0016] A manhole and a ladder are set up on the arch rib diaphragm, and a manhole is set up at the junction of the arch rib and the wind brace. The setting of these manholes and ladders allows the internal inspection passages of the arch rib and the wind brace to be connected. Personnel can reach various positions of the arch rib and the wind brace through the cavity inside the arch rib and use the ladder and manhole to carry out inspection, thus achieving full coverage of the arch rib and the wind brace.
