[0002] Structural columns are reinforced concrete columns installed in the walls of multi-story brick-concrete structures to enhance the building's integrity and stability. These columns connect to the ring beams on each floor, forming a spatial framework that resists bending and shearing. They are an effective measure to prevent building collapse. Structural columns are generally perpendicular to beams, but due to factors such as settlement and load, they can easily crack, deform, and tilt at the connection between the column and beam, causing the column and beam to lose their perpendicularity and require reinforcement.

[0003] For example, patent application number 202321667666.3 discloses a reinforcement tool for masonry corner structural columns, including a corner wall structural column, a reinforcement plate A, a nut, a reinforcement plate, an L-shaped reinforcement member, a reinforcement plate B, a prefabricated hole A, a through-wall bolt A, and a triangular reinforcement member A. The corner wall structural column is in a T-shaped structure rotated 90 degrees as a whole, and L-shaped reinforcement members are provided at two right-angled angles on one side of the corner wall structural column. Each of the L-shaped reinforcement members is provided with a reinforcement plate A and a reinforcement plate B at both ends. All components of the utility model are detachable and can be used individually to reinforce the positive corner structural column, or to effectively reinforce the corner wall structural column when it is in an L or T-shaped structure rotated 90 degrees as a whole. Compared with traditional reinforcement tools and methods, the present application saves labor and can be used in a turnover manner. It is also convenient to reinforce and simple to operate. It has a wide range of applications and solves the problem that the templates at the positive and negative corners of the structural column are difficult to reinforce.

[0004] Application No. 202223597122.2 An L-shaped structural column reinforcement structure, comprising: a floor slab; a first crossbeam, the first crossbeam being fixedly connected to the bottom of the floor slab; a second crossbeam, the second crossbeam being fixedly connected to the bottom of the floor slab and passing through the first crossbeam, the first crossbeam and the second crossbeam being arranged in a cross-shaped arrangement; a plurality of structural column longitudinal steel bars, the plurality of structural column longitudinal steel bars being arranged at the top of the floor slab and directly above the first crossbeam and the second crossbeam, the plurality of structural column longitudinal steel bars being evenly distributed in an L shape, a fixed steel plate being provided at the top of the floor slab, the fixed steel plate being provided with a plurality of fixing holes corresponding to the plurality of structural column longitudinal steel bars, the fixed steel plate being sleeved on the plurality of structural column longitudinal steel bars through the fixing holes, a connecting assembly being provided between the fixed steel plate and the first crossbeam and the second crossbeam for connecting the three together. This application has the effect of improving the connection strength between the crossbeam and the structural column.

[0005] However, the above-mentioned reinforcement structure and similar reinforcement structures are mostly reinforced by fixedly connecting the structural columns and beams. If the deformation between the structural columns and beams continues, the reinforcement structure is at risk of deformation, breakage or falling off, thereby losing or weakening the reinforcement effect, and improvements are needed.

Those skilled in the art will be able to understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a structural column reinforcement device includes a horizontal plate 5 and a vertical plate 9. The right end of the horizontal plate 5 is connected to the top of the vertical plate 9 through a hinge 7. A plurality of upper expansion screws 1 are provided through the left end of the horizontal plate 5. A plurality of lower expansion screws 11 are provided through the bottom of the vertical plate 9. The horizontal plate 5 and the vertical plate 9 are connected by a force unloading mechanism.

[0029] When in use, the device is arranged on the side where the tilt deformation occurs, that is, the side where the angle between the beam and the structural column gradually becomes smaller, and the horizontal plate 5 is connected to the beam through the upper expansion screw 1, and the vertical plate 9 is connected to the structural column through the lower expansion screw 11. During the deformation process, the beam and the structural column squeeze the device from both sides respectively, and the unloading mechanism supports the horizontal plate 5 and the vertical plate 9 to resist deformation and achieve the reinforcement effect.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] like Figure 1-4 As shown, when other parts are the same as those in Example 1, the difference between this embodiment and Example 1 is that the unloading mechanism includes two support rods 12, the upper ends of the support rods 12 are connected to the horizontal plate 5 through the upper connecting assembly, and the lower ends of the support rods 12 are connected to the vertical plate 9 through the lower connecting assembly.

[0032] The upper connecting assembly includes two upper connecting seats 3, which are respectively located on the left and right sides of the support rod 12. The upper connecting seats 3 are fixedly connected to the cross plate 5. An upper connecting shaft 4 is provided between the two upper connecting seats 3. The left and right ends of the upper connecting shaft 4 are respectively fixedly connected to the two upper connecting seats 3. An upper connecting ball 2 is sleeved on the upper connecting shaft 4. The upper connecting ball 2 is rotatably matched with the upper connecting shaft 4. The upper end of the upper connecting tube 6 is fixedly connected to the upper connecting ball 2. An upper groove 27 is opened inside the upper connecting tube 6 along the circumference of the upper connecting tube 6. An upper rotating shaft 26 is embedded in the upper groove 27. The lower end of the upper rotating shaft 26 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support rod 12. The lower connecting assembly includes two lower connecting seats 21, which are respectively located on the left and right sides of the support rod 12. A lower connecting shaft 20 is arranged between the two lower connecting seats 21. The left and right ends of the lower connecting shaft 20 are respectively fixedly connected to the two lower connecting seats 21. A lower connecting ball 23 is sleeved on the lower connecting shaft 20. The lower connecting ball 23 rotates with the lower connecting shaft 20. The lower connecting ball 23 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the lower connecting tube 19. A lower groove 25 is opened inside the lower connecting tube 19 along the circumference of the lower connecting tube 19. A lower rotating shaft 28 is embedded in the lower groove 25. The upper end of the lower rotating shaft 28 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the support rod 12.

[0033] The lower connecting seat 21 is fixed on the slider 22, the slider 22 is slidably connected to the two dovetail slide rails 13, and the dovetail slide rails 13 are fixed to the vertical plate 9. The dovetail slide rails 13 are provided with limit blocks 14 at both ends, and the limit blocks 14 are fixed to the dovetail slide rails 13.

[0034] The unloading mechanism also includes a drive gear 16, which is fixedly sleeved in the middle of the support rod 12. A limit plate 15 is provided on both the upper and lower sides of the drive gear 16. The limit plate 15 is sleeved on the support rod 12. The limit plate 15 is fixedly connected to the drive gear 16. A wire rope 10 is provided between the two drive gears 16. A plurality of tooth grooves 18 are opened on the surface of one end of the wire rope 10 along the length direction of the wire rope 10. The tooth grooves 18 are engaged with the drive gear 16. The other end of the wire rope 10 passes through the fixed ball 8 and is fixed to the slider 22. The fixed ball 8 is fixed to the vertical plate 9. The side of the lower connecting tube 19 is threadedly connected to the limit screw 24, and the limit screw 24 is against the lower rotating shaft 28. A limit ball 17 is fixed to the end of the wire rope 10 with the tooth groove 18.

[0035] During the deformation process of the connection between the structural column and the beam, the beam and the structural column continue to squeeze the device from both sides, causing the horizontal plate 5 and the vertical plate 9 to rotate slightly and retract along the hinge 7. At this time, the horizontal plate 5 drives the slider 22 to move slightly downward along the dovetail slide rail 13 through the upper connecting seat 3, the upper connecting shaft 4, the upper connecting ball 2, the upper connecting tube 6, the support rod 12, the lower connecting tube 19, the lower connecting ball 23, the lower connecting shaft 20, and the lower connecting seat 21. During the downward movement of the slider 22, the wire rope 10 is pulled, causing the wire rope 10 to drive the driving gear 16 engaged therewith to rotate, and the driving gear 16 drives the support rod 12 to rotate, and the support rod 12 drives the lower rotating shaft 28 to rotate synchronously.

[0036] Since the lower rotating shaft 28 is pressed tightly by the limiting screw 24, although the lower rotating shaft 28 can rotate, the rotation of the lower rotating shaft 28 is restricted, so that the process of the horizontal plate 5 and the vertical plate 9 rotating and retracting slightly along the hinge 7 is restricted, thereby limiting the deformation between the structural column and the beam.

[0037] By setting up a force unloading mechanism, the device can not only resist the deformation between the structural column and the beam, but also unload part of the force applied to the device during the deformation process, thereby reducing the risk of deformation, breakage or falling off of the device.

[0038] Example 3

[0039] like Figure 1-4 As shown, while other parts are the same as those in Example 2, the difference between this embodiment and Example 2 is that the horizontal plate 5, the vertical plate 9, and the support rod 12 are all made of aluminum alloy, which can improve the strength of the main components of the device and increase the service life.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely illustrative of the principles of the present invention.
