[0035] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] Embodiment 1:

[0037] See attached Figures 1 to 3 The embodiment of the present invention discloses a concrete guardrail cutting device, comprising:

[0038] The positioning part 1 comprises two parallel and spaced guide rails 11, the axes of the two guide rails 11 are parallel to the height direction of the concrete guardrail 5 and the upper ends of the two guide rails 11 are bent to form hooks and can be hung on the concrete guardrail 5;

[0039] The movable guide part 2 includes a guide rod 21 and a cutting guide frame 24 located below the guide rod 21. The two ends of the guide rod 21 are respectively slidably connected to the two opposite side walls of the two guide rails 11. The top end of the cutting guide frame 24 is hinged to the guide rod 21 and can slide up and down along the two guide rails 11 with the guide rod 21.

[0040] The cutting machine 3 has a head portion which is clamped on the cutting guide frame 24 so as to move up and down with the cutting guide frame 24 to cut the false seam.

[0041] In this embodiment, the shape of the positioning portion 1 is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the concrete guardrail 5 .

[0042] In actual use, two guide rails are hung on the concrete guardrail, and the cutter is fixed on the cutting guide frame. The worker holds the cutting machine and moves it up and down along the height direction of the guardrail. During this process, the cutting guide frame is pushed and pulled. The cutting guide frame drives the guide rod to slide up and down along the guide rails, thereby realizing the cutting operation on the top surface and inner side of the guardrail. When encountering the chamfered position on the inner side of the guardrail, the cutting angle of the cutter can be adjusted by slightly rotating the cutting guide frame to realize a comprehensive false seam cutting operation on the concrete guardrail.

[0043] In some other specific embodiments, the movable guide part 2 also includes a connecting piece 22; the guide rod 21 is a square rod, and the cutting guide frame 24 is a rectangular frame; one end of the connecting piece 22 is fixed to the middle of the bottom surface of the square rod, and the other end is hinged to the top of the rectangular frame; the head of the cutting machine 3 is clamped in the frame of the rectangular frame.

[0044] The guide rod is hinged to the cutting guide frame through a connector, and the connector can increase the distance between the guide rod and the cutting guide frame. When encountering a chamfered position of the guardrail, it is convenient for the cutting operation of the cutting machine, and the guide rod will not affect the cutting operation due to being too close to the cutting machine.

[0045] In this embodiment, the guide rod is formed by two angle steels being buckled and welded together, the connecting piece is a steel plate, and the cutting guide frame is welded into a rectangular frame by the angle steels.

[0046] In other specific embodiments, two parallel and spaced pin ears are fixed to the top of the cutting guide frame 24, and a pin shaft 23 is fixed to the end of the connecting piece 22 away from the guide rod 21. Both ends of the pin shaft 23 are rotatably connected in the two pin ears, and the cutting guide frame 24 and the guide rod 21 are hinged by the pin shaft 23. The cutting guide frame 24 can rotate a certain angle through the pin shaft 23 to adjust the cutting angle of the cutting machine 3.

[0047] In other specific embodiments, it also includes a clamping member 27, which is fixed on the side of the rectangular frame away from the concrete guardrail 5 to clamp the head of the cutting machine 3; a positioning bolt 28 is screwed on the clamping member 27 to adjust the distance between the cutting machine 3 and the concrete guardrail 5 and fix their positions; the saw blade plane of the cutting machine 3 is arranged perpendicular to the outer surface of the concrete guardrail 5.

[0048] As shown in the attached drawings, the clamping parts are welded into an L shape by two angle steels arranged perpendicular to each other. One side panel of the vertically arranged angle steel is fixed on the frame of the rectangular frame, and the panel of the horizontally arranged angle steel extends along the side away from the concrete guardrail. There are two clamping parts and they are symmetrically arranged up and down along the rectangular frame. The cutting head of the cutting machine is clamped between the two side panels of the two horizontally arranged angle steels of the two clamping parts, and the positioning bolts are screwed on the upper angle steel. When performing cutting operations, the cutting machine is first used to perform a trial cutting. When the depth and width of the false seam of the trial cutting meet the requirements, the positioning bolts are screwed in so that the threaded end thereof abuts against the head of the cutting machine to fix the position of the cutting machine.

[0049] In other specific embodiments, in order to better achieve the synchronous up and down movement between the guide rod and the cutting guide frame, both ends of the guide rod 21 and the cutting guide frame 24 are rotatably connected to guide wheels 26, and the guide wheels 26 are rollingly connected to the guide rail 11.

[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, the guide rail is an angle steel, the guide wheel is a slot-shaped guide wheel, and the guide wheels at both ends of the guide rod are clamped on both sides of the horizontal panel of the guide rail, thereby realizing the up and down movement of the guide rod and the cutting guide frame.

[0051] In order to further optimize the above technical solution and facilitate the rotation of the cutting guide frame 24, the cutting guide frame 24 is hinged with wheel frames 25 on both sides of the frame facing the concrete guardrail 5. The wheel frames 25 are hinged to the cutting guide frame 24 in the form of a ball joint. A slot-shaped guide wheel 26 is rotatably connected to the wheel frame 25. Through the hinged connection between the cutting guide frame 24 and the wheel frame 25, the rotation of the cutting guide frame 24 relative to the connecting piece 22 can be better realized.

[0052] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the positioning part 1 also includes a limit rod 12 and a connecting rod 13. The two ends of the limit rod 12 are respectively fixed to the two side walls opposite to the upper ends of the two guide rails 11; the two ends of the connecting rod 13 are respectively fixed to the two side walls opposite to the lower ends of the two guide rails 11.

[0053] The two guide rails are connected by a limit rod and a connecting rod. The limit rod can limit the sliding displacement of the guide rod to prevent the guide rod from sliding off the guide rail.

[0054] In this embodiment, the bending part of the guide rail relative to the inner chamfer of the concrete guardrail is processed into an arc transition section to facilitate the up and down movement of the guide rod and the cutting guide frame.

[0055] In other specific embodiments, in order to avoid rigid contact between the cutting device and the concrete guardrail, and to prevent damage to the guardrail concrete and affect the appearance quality of the guardrail, a positioning column 14 is further included. There are multiple positioning columns 14, one end of each positioning column 14 is vertically fixed to a side wall of the guide rail 11 facing the concrete guardrail 5, and the other end can abut against the outer surface of the concrete guardrail 5. The outer periphery of the positioning column 14 is covered with a rubber pad.

[0056] In other specific embodiments, a reinforcing part 4 is further included, and the reinforcing part 4 includes a crossbar 41 and a vertical bar 42; one end of the crossbars 41 is fixed to a side wall of the guide rail 11 away from the guide rod 21, and the vertical bar 42 is arranged parallel to the guide rail 11, and its side wall is fixed to the other end of the crossbar 41. The reinforcing part is used to give the cutting device a certain rigidity, thereby increasing the number of turnover uses.

[0057] In other specific embodiments, multiple cutting devices are provided along the length direction of the concrete guardrail, a slide rail is fixed to the outer wall of the concrete guardrail, and the bent section of the guide rail is slidably connected to the slide rail. By sliding the cutting device along the slide rail, the cutting device can cut the false seams sequentially along the length direction of the concrete guardrail, thereby avoiding the disadvantage of carrying the cutting device.

[0058] This embodiment only provides the method for false seam cutting on the inner side of the concrete guardrail. When cutting the outer side of the concrete guardrail, the cutting device is hung in reverse and used in conjunction with the template trolley for guardrail construction. Workers perform false seam cutting operations in the hanging basket of the trolley.

[0059] Embodiment 2:

[0060] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a method for using a concrete guardrail cutting device, wherein the concrete guardrail cutting device in embodiment 1 is used to cut a false seam on a concrete guardrail, comprising the following steps:

[0061] S1. Put the device in place, assemble the cutting device and hang it on the concrete guardrail;

[0062] When the concrete strength of the guardrail reaches more than 75%, the guardrail template is disassembled, and the assembled cutting device is hung on the concrete guardrail. In order to ensure the aesthetics, the position of the false seam can be set at the joint of two adjacent guardrail templates;

[0063] S2, cutting depth adjustment, adjust the depth of the cutting machine entering the cutting guide frame to conduct trial cutting. When the cutting depth and width meet the requirements, fix the position of the cutting machine;

[0064] After the cutting machine is clamped on the cutting guide frame, a trial cutting operation is carried out. When the cutting depth meets the requirements, the position of the cutting machine is fixed by the positioning bolts;

[0065] S3, false seam cutting, the guide rod and the cutting guide frame move up and down along the height direction of the guardrail, and the cutting machine completes the false seam cutting operation during the movement.

[0066] When workers operate the cutting machine to perform cutting operations, they can provide upward or downward moving force through the cutting machine, thereby pushing or pulling the cutting guide frame to move up and down along the guide rail, and at the same time, the guide rod will move up and down along the guide rail synchronously, thereby completing the cutting operation of the entire false seam of the guardrail.

[0067] In this specification, each embodiment is described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the embodiments can be referred to each other.
