Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of magnetic levitation transportation track beam structure, and particularly relates to a layered magnetic levitation track beam spring damping flexible transition structure and a working method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, the magnetic levitation transportation system has significant advantages in speed, comfort and maintainability due to its non-contact operation characteristics. As a key scheme to adapt to transportation, erection and line layout requirements, the segmented design of the track beam has become an important research direction of the magnetic levitation track structure. However, the existing track beam structure and supporting technology still have obvious limitations in the linear control and vibration suppression of the two-span joints or segment connection parts, and it is difficult to balance the structural adaptability, operation smoothness and life cycle economy.

[0003] Chinese patent application with publication number CN121066005A discloses a superconducting magnetic levitation U-shaped track beam and a preparation method thereof. The number of joints is reduced through the one-piece design of the track beam segments, and the track smoothness is improved to a certain extent. However, the core optimization of this scheme is focused on the forming process and cross-section structure design, and the connection between the segments is still mainly rigid splicing, lacking a flexible adjustment mechanism for the corner or splicing part between the adjacent two spans. On the one hand, during long-term operation, the track beam is prone to irreversible deformation due to the influence of concrete creep, uneven foundation settlement and repeated train loads, resulting in discontinuous corners at the adjacent two spans or splicing parts, and the one-piece rigid structure cannot be dynamically corrected. On the other hand, the stiffness optimization depends on the cross-section size and reinforcement design, and if further vibration suppression is required, the beam weight needs to be increased, which not only increases the engineering cost, but also makes it difficult to match the dynamic changes of different operating speeds and load conditions.

[0004] Chinese patent application with publication number CN118418746A discloses a magnetic levitation train suspension control method and device and storage medium. By constructing a track irregularity model and combining a tube model predictive control algorithm, the suspension current is adjusted in real time to compensate for the influence of track disturbance. However, this scheme belongs to the optimization of the control system, and has essential limitations. Firstly, the optimization effect completely depends on the sensor detection accuracy, model fitting degree and hardware response speed, and cannot eliminate the rigid impact and linear mutation at the corner joint between the adjacent two spans from the structure itself. When the track appears irreversible corner deformation, the adjustment space of the control algorithm will be significantly limited. Secondly, this method does not involve the essential improvement of the track beam structure, lacks a dissipation mechanism for the vibration energy at the joint, and it is difficult to reduce vibration transmission from the root through current adjustment. Long-term operation may still affect the ride comfort and structural fatigue life.

[0005] In addition, the traditional optimization idea in the field of existing track beams either offsets deflection by applying pre-camber (but the pre-camber value is set once in the production stage and cannot be adjusted later), or suppresses deformation by increasing the cross-sectional stiffness (but leads to an increase in the structure's self-weight and a decrease in economy), and both of them are difficult to solve the dual demands of "linear dynamic controllability" and "vibration effective suppression" at the corner joint between two adjacent spans.

[0006] In summary, in the prior art, although the rigid track beam structure can reduce the number of joints, it lacks flexible adjustment ability in the whole life cycle and cannot cope with deformation accumulation after long-term operation; and the optimization scheme based on control algorithm can only passively compensate for disturbances and is difficult to eliminate rigid impact from the structure level. The existing technology has obvious contradictions between "linear self-adaptive adjustment of the structure itself" and "active dissipation of vibration energy", and there is an urgent need for a technical solution that starts from the design of the track beam structure, dynamically matches the operating conditions, and takes into account the smoothness and economy. SUMMARY

Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but only to represent selected embodiments of the application.

[0037] As Figures 1-2As shown, a spring damping flexible transition structure of a layered magnetic levitation track beam comprises an overhead adjusting hole 1, a connecting key 2, a functional part 3, an upper track beam 4, a spring damping unit 5 and a lower track beam 6.

The functional part 3 is connected with the upper track beam 4 through the connecting key 2. A plurality of installation stations of the spring damping unit 5 are arranged between the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6 along the beam length direction. Each installation station is arranged at intervals along the length direction from the starting end to the terminal end of the upper track beam 4. At each installation station, two spring damping units 5 are arranged symmetrically on both sides of the central axis of the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6 as the symmetry axis. A plurality of overhead adjusting holes 1 are arranged on the upper surface of the upper track beam 4. Each overhead adjusting hole 1 corresponds to each spring damping unit 5 longitudinally.

The spring damping unit 5 provides elastic recovery force and damping energy dissipation for the relative vertical displacement between the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6 and the angular deformation between adjacent two span beams when the train passes, so as to form a flexible transition support between the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6, and make the angular change between the joints of adjacent two span beams continuous and the deformation controllable.

[0038] The track beam assembly adopts a prefabricated structure.

[0044] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the top view adjustment hole 1 is in communication with the top fixed hinge support and the corresponding spring damping unit 5, and by inserting the height adjustment assembly into the top view adjustment hole 1, the installation height and pre-tightening force of the spring damping unit 5 can be maintained and adjusted. A detachable cover plate is arranged at the aperture of the top view adjustment hole 1, which is used to close the aperture and ensure the integrity and protection performance of the upper surface of the upper track beam 4 during daily operation.

[0045] The staff can insert special tools into the top view adjustment hole 1 to conveniently maintain and adjust the installation height and pre-tightening force of each spring damping unit 5 without disassembling the main structure of the upper track beam 4.

[0050] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6 match the track beam system of the existing maglev line in overall shape, structural size and load bearing mode, so that the layered track beam can directly replace or embed the track beam position of the existing maglev line without changing the existing line support arrangement form, bridge structure form and auxiliary facility arrangement conditions; by adjusting the stiffness distribution and damping parameters of each spring damping unit 5, the active adaptation of the beam body dynamic response under different operating conditions is realized, and under the premise of not significantly increasing the beam body self weight and overall structure height, the corner amplitude and vibration acceleration of the adjacent two span joints in the middle region are effectively reduced, and the durability and maintenance convenience of the overall structure are improved.

[0051] A working method of a spring damping flexible transition structure of a layered maglev track beam, comprising the following steps:

[0052] Step S1. According to the line design parameters, train load and operating speed, the stiffness and damping parameters of the spring damping unit 5 are selected, the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6 are layered in the middle region, and the setting position of the spring damping unit 5 is determined along the beam length direction; when selecting the parameters, the key design conditions such as line type (urban low-speed maglev, straddle type maglev, etc.), train load level, operating speed, etc. are comprehensively considered, and the core parameters such as the stiffness coefficient of the spring element, the damping coefficient of the damping element, the installation height range of the spring damping unit 5 and the initial value of the pre-tightening force are determined, so as to ensure that the parameters are accurately matched with the actual operation demand. Then, according to the design scheme, the track beam is divided into the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6 along the horizontal direction, the horizontal section is processed flat to ensure the section accuracy, the installation interface of the reinforced parts such as the adaptive steel connecting plate and the overhead adjustment hole 1 corresponding to the spring damping unit 5 are processed, and the foundation for the subsequent installation of the spring damping unit 5 is laid.

[0053] Step S2. Ten spring damping units 5 are installed, pre-adjusted through the height adjustment assembly and the overhead adjustment hole 1, and the initial linear deviation is ensured to be within the allowable range; during the installation process, the principle of "symmetrical installation and individual verification" is followed, the upper fixed hinge support and the lower fixed hinge support of the spring damping unit 5 are fixed with the installation slot of the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6 respectively, and the connection is ensured to be firm and reliable. Then, the special tool is inserted through the overhead adjustment hole 1 on the upper surface of the upper track beam 4, the height adjustment assembly is operated to adjust the installation height and pre-tightening force of each spring damping unit 5 one by one, and during the adjustment process, the professional detection equipment is used to monitor the connection linear of the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6 in real time, the corner change and vertical displacement deviation of the connection interface are focused on, the corner change of the adjacent two track beams is ensured to be continuous, the vertical displacement is controlled within the design allowable range, and finally the initial linear of the track beam meets the standard and meets the basic requirements of the stable operation of the train.

[0054] Step S3. Train test run stage, displacement sensors, acceleration sensors and strain gauges are arranged near the intermediate region connection section, real-time collection of vertical displacement, angle deformation and dynamic response data, record peak and average value under multiple train passing conditions, compared with design index for analysis; The monitoring system adopts double channel redundant arrangement, the key monitoring signals include 5 displacement signals and 5 acceleration signals, the measuring points are mutually redundant to ensure that the system can continue to work when one channel fails, avoiding monitoring distortion caused by single channel failure. At the same time, clear design index is preset, including maximum allowable angle, maximum vertical displacement, stress limit and vibration acceleration threshold, etc., the real-time monitoring data is compared with the design index dynamically, and the running state of the structure is judged whether it meets the requirements in time, if the data exceeds the standard or abnormal situation occurs, the subsequent adjustment and disposal process is triggered immediately.

[0055] Step S4. According to the measured data, the pre-tightening force, installation height or damping coefficient of the spring damping unit 5 is adjusted online through the overhead adjustment hole 1, and the matching of each damping unit is optimized; First, analyze the reason of the monitoring data exceeding the standard or being abnormal, and determine whether it is caused by insufficient spring stiffness, installation height deviation, unreasonable damping coefficient or other factors. Then, through the overhead adjustment hole 1 on the upper surface of the track beam 4, the corresponding spring damping unit 5 is adjusted, which can correct the installation position through the height adjustment assembly, replace the spring element with appropriate stiffness or adjust the damping coefficient of the damping element, etc., to realize dynamic optimization of parameters. The secondary adjustment can be flexibly adjusted according to the change of operation scene, for example, when the train operation speed is increased, the spring stiffness and damping coefficient can be appropriately increased to enhance the structural constraint ability; When the foundation subsides slightly, the height adjustment assembly can compensate the displacement deviation to maintain the linear continuity.

[0056] Step S5. In normal operation, the spring damping unit 5 provides elastic restoring force and damping energy in vertical and angular directions when the train passes, so that the angular continuity of the intermediate region connection section is changed and the deformation is controllable, and the vibration peak and stiffness mutation are reduced; When the train load acts on the upper track beam 4, the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6 will produce relative vertical displacement and angular deformation, at this time, the ten spring damping units 5 of the five installation stations work synchronously: the spring element quickly provides elastic restoring force, effectively limits the excessive deformation of the track beam, and promotes the track beam to reset in time; The damping element actively absorbs vibration energy through its energy dissipation mechanism, quickly attenuates vibration transmission; At the same time, relying on the structure feature of symmetrical arrangement around the track beam gravity center, it can effectively constrain the angular deformation between the adjacent two track beams, and avoid the rigid impact between the upper track beam 4 and the lower track beam 6, realize the smooth transition of the adjacent two track beams, and significantly reduce the influence of structural stress and vibration on train operation.

[0057] Step S6. Regularly monitor the structure state through sensor data combined with manual inspection, and adjust parameters as necessary to ensure long-term stable operation of the structure. Establish a long-term monitoring database for the entire life cycle of the structure, regularly collect structural mechanics response data, environmental factors (such as temperature changes, foundation settlement), and spring damping unit 5 aging state information, and form a complete operation data file. Based on the monitoring data, regular analysis is carried out, and the parameter configuration of the spring damping unit 5 is continuously optimized through iterative adjustment to ensure that the structure always matches well with the operating conditions. For problems such as spring fatigue and damping attenuation that may occur during long-term operation, use the overhead adjustment hole 1 for regular maintenance and component replacement, without the need to disassemble the main structure of the upper track beam 4, reducing the difficulty and cost of maintenance. For applications under complex conditions, the adjustment parameters can be optimized in combination with the results of finite element simulation analysis, and an environmental temperature monitoring module can be added in long-term monitoring to compensate for the effects of temperature changes on spring stiffness and track beam deformation, further improving the adaptability and durability of the structure.

[0058] In summary, the present embodiment realizes flexible transition and vibration control in the middle region of the magnetic levitation track beam through scientific and reasonable structural configuration and closed-loop workflow. Compared with the prior art, without significantly increasing the cross-sectional size of the track beam, it can effectively solve the continuous transition of the corner between the two adjacent track beams, control the deformation, and ensure the flexible transition support of the one-span beam, effectively suppress the vibration, and significantly improve the stability and comfort of train operation.
