[0018] The present invention will be described in detail and completely below with reference to the drawings. Those skilled in the art will be able to implement the present invention based on these descriptions. Before describing the present invention in combination with the drawings, it should be particularly noted that: the technical solutions and technical features provided in each part including the following description can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0019] In addition, the embodiments of the present invention involved in the following description are usually only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Therefore, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] The following further describes the present invention in detail with reference to the drawings and embodiments, and the specific implementation process is as follows: As Figures 1-6As shown, the present invention provides a method for removing a horizontal steel wire rope, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Select a horizontal cable segment 1 that is convenient for on-site construction. The horizontal cable is wrapped with a PE sheath 2 and has a steel wire bundle 3 inside. It is planned to cut and remove the horizontal cable segment 1. The cable segment has a certain length. The horizontal cable segment 1 includes a tensioning fixture installation segment 11 and a reserved tensioning segment 12. The length A of the reserved tensioning segment 12 satisfies A≥50cm+B, where B is the tensioning elongation of the horizontal cable; in , F is the total tension of the horizontal cable, L is the stress-free length of the cable; E is the elastic modulus of the steel wire, and A is the total cross-sectional area of ​​the steel wire.

[0021] Step 2: stripping off the PE sheath 2 of the tensioning fixture installation section 11 to expose the internal steel wire bundle 3, wherein the stripping length is L; Step 3: Install the tensioning clamp 4 at both ends of the PE sheath of the tensioning clamp installation section 11, and perform standardized processing inside the factory. The tensioning clamp 4 includes a clamp 42 clamped on the outside of the PE sheath 2 and a tensioning anchor seat 41 welded to the clamp 42. The clamping lengths of both ends of the clamp 42 are 5 cm each, and the total length is 10 cm + L. A gap is formed between the clamp 42 and the exposed steel wire bundle 3, and the gap is consolidated by a shear key 421 and an adhesive material 43; Step 4: Install the tensioning system 5 on the tensioning anchor 41, and tension the two sides synchronously through the tensioning system 5 until the reserved tensioning section 12 is relaxed; the tensioning system 5 is stressed, and the tensioning rods 51 are tensioned synchronously on both sides, and the tensioning rods 51 are lifted by the through-hole jack 53, so that the elongation of the reserved tensioning section 12 of the horizontal cable begins to retract, until the lifting force of the jack reaches the designed tension of the horizontal cable or the reserved tensioning section 12 is relaxed or the strain gauge no longer changes, which proves that the tensioning is in place. The cable force at this time is the actual cable force of the horizontal cable.

[0022] Step 5: Cut the relaxed steel wire bundle 3 of the reserved tensioning section 12; cut the horizontal cable. After the tensioning is completed, the reserved tensioning section 12 is in a relaxed state. Use an angle grinder to peel off the PE sheath 2 at the reserved tensioning section 12, and then use a cutting machine to cut off the steel wire bundle 3.

[0023] Step 6: Release and remove the horizontal cables. The tension rod 51 is released, and the through-hole jack 53 is used to release the tension synchronously up and down until the tension rod 51 is completely relaxed, and then all the horizontal cables are removed in sections, and the removal of all the steel wire horizontal cables is completed.

[0024] Furthermore, in the method for removing the horizontal steel wire rope, the tensioning anchor seat 41 includes an anchor plate 411 and a stiffening plate 412 , the anchor plate 411 is provided with a mounting hole for connecting the tensioning system 5 , and the stiffening plate 412 is uniformly welded along the circumference of the anchor plate 411 .

[0025] Further, for the method of removing the steel wire horizontal cable, the tensioning system 5 includes a tension rod 51, a support foot 52, a through-hole jack 53 and an anchor bolt 54; The tension rod 51 passes through the installation hole on the tensioning anchor seat 41 and is fixed by the anchor bolt 54. One end of the support foot 52 is connected to the tensioning anchor seat 41, and the other end is connected to the through-hole jack 53. The through-hole jack 53 is sleeved outside the tension rod 51.

[0026] Further, for the method of removing the steel wire horizontal cable, the stroke of the through-hole jack 53 is not less than the horizontal cable tensile elongation B of the reserved tensioning section 12.

[0027] Further, for the method of removing the steel wire horizontal cable, the shear keys 421 are evenly distributed along the length direction of the gap on the inner wall of the fixture 42 and the shear keys 421 extend into the bonding material 43. The presence of the shear keys 421 makes the cooperation between the tensioning fixture 4 and the steel wire bundle 3 more effective.

[0028] Further, for the method of removing the steel wire horizontal cable, the bonding material 43 is zinc copper alloy, epoxy iron sand or a material with a bonding strength ≥ 2.5 MPa and a friction coefficient ≥ 0.25.

[0029] Further, for the method of removing the steel wire horizontal cable, the fixture 42 is also provided with perfusion holes 422. The perfusion holes 422 are evenly arranged along the axis of the fixture 42. The bonding material 43 is injected into the gap through the perfusion holes 422 to fully connect the tensioning fixture 4 and the exposed steel wire bundle 3.

[0030] Further, for the method of removing the steel wire horizontal cable, the fixture 42 is composed of two symmetrically arranged arc-shaped clamping plates. The inner diameter of the clamping plate matches the outer diameter of the horizontal cable, and the PE sheath 2 is clamped by bolt connection to form a filling gap with the steel wire bundle 3.

[0031] Further, for the method of removing the steel wire horizontal cable, in the second step, the stripping length L satisfies: , where K is the safety factor, is the total tension of the horizontal cable, μ is the friction coefficient, P is the cable clamping stress, and r is the radius of the horizontal cable.

[0032] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed as above, it is not limited to the applications listed in the specification and embodiments. It can be fully applied to various fields suitable for the present invention. For those familiar with the field, additional modifications can be easily achieved. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and the equivalent scope, the present invention is not limited to the specific details and the embodiments shown and described here.
