[0002] With the update of seismic design specifications, the seismic performance requirements of bridges have been significantly improved. The current bridge reinforcement and seismic technology is mainly divided into two categories: traditional structural reinforcement method and new energy dissipation device method.

[0003] (1) Traditional structural reinforcement method

[0004] Increasing the size of bridge piers and strengthening pile foundations: Improving seismic performance by increasing the cross-section of bridge piers or enhancing the bearing capacity of pile foundations requires a large amount of concrete and steel bars, and the construction period is long and costly.

[0005] (2) New energy-consuming device method

[0006] Support replacement (such as friction pendulum support): By lifting the bridge, the fixed support is replaced with a friction pendulum support, and its sliding is used to extend the structural cycle and consume energy. However, the lifting operation requires complex equipment and high-precision control, and has low applicability to high-pier bridges.

[0007] VFD viscous damper: uses viscous material as a medium to absorb earthquake energy. Although it does not change the structural stiffness, it can only provide one-way protection (such as horizontal direction) and requires regular maintenance, which has high maintenance costs. In addition, its connection nodes need to be precisely controlled, making installation difficult.

[0008] Therefore, a pressure-bearing non-collision stopper is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0019] When the earthquake force is greater than P3, the main beam and the pier are misaligned, and the friction member slides to the limiting tenon, and the relative displacement between the main beam and the pier beam is limited by the limiting tenon.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] 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.

[0035] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0036] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 The present invention provides a pressure-bearing non-collision stopper, comprising:

[0037] An upper connecting member, the upper connecting member is used to connect with the main beam 1, a groove is provided at the bottom of the upper connecting member, a friction member is provided at the bottom of the upper connecting member, and the friction member is arranged around the groove;

[0038] The lower connecting plate 3-6 is used to connect with the bridge pier 4. The top of the lower connecting plate 3-6 has a sliding surface 3-3. The groove is arranged opposite to the sliding surface 3-3. The friction member is in friction contact with the sliding surface 3-3. The center of the sliding surface 3-3 has an upward protrusion. The height of the upward protrusion on the sliding surface 3-3 can decrease linearly or nonlinearly to the height at the edge of the sliding surface 3-3.

[0039] A limiting tenon 3-4, which is located at the center of the groove and fixedly connected to the upward protruding point on the top of the sliding surface 3-3;

[0040] A support 2 is provided between the main beam 1 and the pier 4 of the bridge, and the top of the support 2 is in contact with the bottom of the main beam 1 .

[0041] When there is no earthquake, the main beam 1 is mainly supported by the support 2. When an earthquake occurs, the main beam 1 and the pier 4 undergo horizontal relative displacement, causing the friction member to slide along the sliding surface 3-3 to achieve friction energy dissipation and shock absorption. As the seismic force increases, one end of the friction member gradually approaches the limiting tenon 3-4. Since the height from the edge of the sliding surface 3-3 to the height of the upward protruding point of the sliding surface 3-3 increases linearly, the sliding surface 3-3 gradually lifts the friction member upward during the sliding process, dislodging the support 2 to achieve seismic isolation.

[0042] Multi-directional limiting is performed by limiting tenons 3-4.

[0043] In some optional embodiments, the earthquake force is set to three levels from small to large, namely P1, P2, and P3;

[0044] When the earthquake force is at P1, the main beam 1 and the pier 4 are slightly misaligned, and the friction member is located above the lower end of the sliding surface 3-3. At this time, the friction member is not in contact with the sliding surface 3-3, and the earthquake force is resisted through the support 2.

[0045] When the earthquake force is at P2, the misalignment between the main beam 1 and the pier 4 increases, and the friction member and the sliding surface 3-3 are in friction contact, and the friction energy dissipation and the support 2 simultaneously resist the earthquake force;

[0046] When the earthquake force is at P3, the misalignment between the main beam 1 and the pier 4 further increases, the friction member is in friction contact with the sliding surface 3-3, and one end of the friction member slides to a position close to the limiting tenon 3-4, and the top of the support 2 is separated from the bottom of the main beam 1 for seismic isolation, resisting the earthquake force through friction energy dissipation;

[0047] When the earthquake force is greater than P3, the misalignment between the main beam 1 and the pier 4 increases again, and the friction member slides to the limiting tenon 3-4, thereby limiting the relative displacement between the main beam 1 and the pier 4 through the limiting tenon 3-4.

[0048] In some optional embodiments, the upper connecting member includes an upper connecting plate 3-1 and a pressure-bearing sleeve 3-2. The upper connecting plate 3-1 is used to connect to the bottom of the main beam 1. The top of the pressure-bearing sleeve 3-2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper connecting plate 3-1, and the inner cavity of the pressure-bearing sleeve 3-2 forms a groove.

[0049] In some optional embodiments, the friction member includes a friction coefficient adjusting slider 3-5 fixedly embedded around the bottom of the pressure-bearing sleeve 3-2, and the friction coefficient adjusting slider 3-5 is in friction contact with the sliding surface 3-3.

[0050] In some optional embodiments, the inner cavity of the pressure-bearing sleeve 3 - 2 is cylindrical.

[0051] In some optional embodiments, the sliding surface 3-3 can be obtained by rotating an arbitrary curve, such as a cone, and the bottom of the friction coefficient adjustment slider 3-5 is adapted to the shape of the sliding surface 3-3.

[0052] In some optional embodiments, the sliding surface 3-3 is a polygonal cone, and the bottom of the friction coefficient adjustment slider 3-5 is adapted to the shape of the sliding surface 3-3.

[0053] In some optional embodiments, when installed on an existing bridge, a plurality of hoop brackets 5 are respectively fixed on both sides of the pier 4, the lower connecting plate 3-6 is fixed to the hoop brackets 5, and the upper connecting plate 3-1 is fixed to the bottom of the main beam 1;

[0054] In some optional embodiments, when installed on a newly built bridge, an installation space is reserved between the main beam 1 and the pier 4, the lower connecting plate 3-6 is fixedly connected to the pier 4, and the upper connecting plate 3-1 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the main beam 1.

[0055] The upper connecting plate 3-1, the pressure-bearing sleeve 3-2, the sliding surface 3-3, the limiting tenon 3-4, the friction coefficient adjusting slider 3-5 and the lower connecting plate 3-6 constitute the multi-directional pressure-bearing stopper 3.

[0056] The multi-directional pressure-bearing stopper 3 is assembled as follows: the pressure-bearing sleeve 3-2 is connected to the upper connecting plate 3-1, and the friction coefficient adjusting slider 3-5 is embedded in the pressure-bearing sleeve 3-2 so that it can slide on the sliding surface 3-3. The main shock-absorbing and isolation mechanism of the multi-directional pressure-bearing stopper 3 is to achieve energy dissipation and shock absorption through the friction between the friction coefficient adjusting slider 3-5 and the sliding surface 3-3, to achieve shock isolation through the hollow bearing 2, and to perform multi-directional limiting through the limiting tenon 3-4.

[0057] Furthermore, a gap is left between the pressure-bearing sleeve 3 - 2 and the limiting tenon 3 - 4 to accommodate the temperature deformation of the main beam 1 .

[0058] This application has a four-level response under earthquake action, and the hysteresis curve of the device is as follows Figure 4 As shown:

[0059] Stage 1: When the earthquake force is less than P1 (0.2-0.6 times the yield force of the bridge pier 4), the friction coefficient adjustment slider 3-5 is not in contact with the sliding surface 3-3, and the bridge resists the earthquake load through the support 2;

[0060] Stage 2: When the earthquake force is at P2 (0.5-0.9 times the yield force of the bridge pier), the friction coefficient adjusting slider 3-5 contacts the sliding surface 3-3 and slides to dissipate friction energy. At this time, the lifting height of the multi-directional pressure-bearing block 3 has not yet caused the bearing 2 to be emptied. The bridge resists the earthquake load together with the multi-directional pressure-bearing block 3 and the bearing 2;

[0061] Stage 3: When the earthquake force is at P3 (0.8-1.0 times the yield force of the bridge pier), the lifting height of the multi-directional pressure-bearing block 3 makes the bearing 2 empty, and the bridge transmits the earthquake load through the friction between the friction coefficient adjustment slider 3-5 and the sliding surface 3-3 to achieve seismic isolation;

[0062] Stage 4: When the relative displacement of the pier and beam exceeds U3 (0.8-1.0 times the width of the expansion joint), the limiting tenon 3-4 will limit the sliding of the pressure sleeve 3-2, thus achieving a limiting effect;

[0063] In the hysteresis curve, U3 corresponds to P3.

[0064] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside" and "outside" etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0065] The embodiments described above are only descriptions of the preferred modes of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should all fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
