Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ancient building protection technology, specifically a reinforcement device for the protection of ancient buildings. Background Technology

[0002] Ancient buildings refer to civil and public buildings that were built before the founding of the People's Republic of China and have historical significance. Many ancient towns and most large cities still retain some ancient buildings. Although some ancient buildings are far removed from the present day, their culture is still worth learning from and emulating. Architectural culture is also a part of traditional culture.

[0003] In related technologies, due to the long construction period and the impact of natural disasters, most ancient buildings have suffered varying degrees of damage, resulting in severe degradation of their structural performance and posing significant safety hazards, necessitating reinforcement. In particular, the wooden or stone pillars in ancient buildings are core components bearing the vertical load of the structure and maintaining overall stability. Due to long-term service, material aging, changes in environmental temperature and humidity, biological corrosion, and dynamic loads such as earthquakes and wind vibrations, these pillars often exhibit problems such as cracking, decay, tilting, and reduced load-bearing capacity.

[0004] Traditional reinforcement methods often involve binding with iron hoops, patching with wooden strips, injecting epoxy resin, or adding support columns. Iron hoops are prone to loosening due to wood shrinkage, and rust can contaminate the surface of the columns. Resin materials have poor compatibility with the original materials of ancient buildings, and the restoration is irreversible, violating the principles of "minimal intervention" and "reversibility" in cultural relic protection. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a reinforcement device for the protection of ancient buildings, in order to solve the problems of cracking, decay, tilting and reduced load-bearing capacity that often occur in wooden or stone pillars of ancient buildings due to long-term service, material aging, changes in environmental temperature and humidity, biological corrosion and dynamic loads such as earthquakes and wind vibrations.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a reinforcement device for the protection of ancient buildings, comprising a clamping assembly and a fastening assembly, wherein the clamping assembly and the fastening assembly are used in cooperation with each other; the clamping assembly comprises two sets of clamping seats respectively arranged vertically, each clamping seat having two clamping plates hinged to it, the two clamping plates being symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the clamping seat, and the ends of the clamping plates on the two clamping seats corresponding to the vertical positions being hinged to each other; the fastening assembly comprises a connecting rod, the left and right ends of the connecting rod being respectively provided with threaded sections with opposite thread directions, and each clamping seat having through holes at its left and right ends, wherein a nut is fixedly installed in the through holes.

[0007] The working principle of this technical solution is as follows: When reinforcing the columns in ancient buildings, firstly, two clamps are symmetrically set along the central axis of the column. After adjusting the position, the two ends of the connecting rod are inserted into the through holes of the two clamps. When the connecting rod is rotated, the clamps at both ends of the connecting rod begin to move towards each other and finally clamp and fix to the column. The upper and lower ends of the column are set at the same time.

[0008] After the positions of the upper and lower clamps are fixed, adjust the clamps on the clamps to tighten them so that they fit snugly against the outer wall of the column. At the same time, the clamps exert force on the upper and lower clamps to achieve the reinforcement effect of the column. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: a cavity is formed in the clamping plate, and a support rod is slidably installed in the cavity. One end of the support rod slidably extends through the cavity, and a spring is fixedly connected between the end of the support rod placed in the cavity and the inner wall of the cavity. The ends of two opposing support rods placed outside the cavity are hinged together. The clamping plate is provided with an adjustment mechanism for the support rod. By setting support rods in the clamping plate, the extension length of the support rods can be easily and conveniently adjusted according to the actual situation of the column, making the application range of this device wider.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: the adjusting mechanism includes a limiting screw, and a plurality of limiting screw holes are evenly spaced on the clamping plate, the limiting screw cooperating with the limiting screw holes. The limiting screw is used to fix and limit the support rod, making operation convenient and simple.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a limiting plate is detachably connected between two clamping plates located on the same clamping seat. The limiting plate provides a stabilizing effect between the two clamping plates.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention: the limiting plate and the clamping plate are connected by a snap fastener, and the end of the threaded section is threaded with a fastening nut, which facilitates installation and disassembly.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a limiting groove is provided on the clamping seat, and an elastic protective pad is installed on the inner wall of the limiting groove. The elastic protective pad protects the column body when the clamping seat clamps and fixes it, preventing damage to the column body from the clamping seat.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention using the above technical solution are as follows: The invention has a simple structure and ingenious design. By setting clamps to fix and secure the columns of ancient buildings, and the fit between the threaded section on the connecting rod and the nut on the clamp, operation is extremely simple and convenient, requiring no tools whatsoever. Furthermore, the fixing and clamping effect is good, and there is no problem of loosening. Simultaneously, the clamping plate and the support rod on the clamping plate are used to firmly adhere to the outer wall of the column. The end of the clamping plate exerts force on the upper and lower clamps, ensuring optimal stability of the column. The overall operation is simple and convenient to implement.

[0018] Please see Figure 1-6 The present invention provides an embodiment of a reinforcement device for the protection of ancient buildings, comprising a clamping component and a fastening component, wherein the clamping component and the fastening component are used in cooperation with each other.

[0019] The clamping assembly includes two sets of clamping seats 1, one above the other. Each clamping seat 1 has two clamping plates 2 hinged to it, and the two clamping plates 2 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the clamping seat 1. A cavity is formed in each clamping plate 2, and a support rod 6 is slidably installed within the cavity. One end of the support rod 6 slides through the cavity, and a spring 7 is fixedly connected between the end of the support rod 6 inside the cavity and the inner wall of the cavity. The ends of the two opposing support rods 6 outside the cavity are hinged together. The clamping plate 2 is equipped with an adjustment mechanism for the support rods 6. By setting the support rods 6 on the clamping plates 2, the extension length of the support rods 6 can be easily and conveniently adjusted according to the actual situation of the column, making the application range of this device wider.

[0020] The adjustment mechanism includes a limiting screw 8, and several limiting screw holes 9 are evenly spaced on the clamping plate 2. The limiting screw 8 is used in conjunction with the limiting screw holes 9. The limiting screw 8 is used to fix and limit the support rod 6, which is convenient and simple to operate.

[0021] A limiting plate is detachably connected between two clamping plates 2 located on the same clamping seat 1. The limiting plate provides a stabilizing effect between the two clamping plates 2. The limiting plate and the clamping plates 2 are connected by a snap-fit, which facilitates installation and disassembly. The end of the threaded section 4 is threaded with a fastening nut 11.

[0022] The fastening assembly includes a connecting rod 3, with threaded sections 4 of opposite directions at both ends of the connecting rod 3. Each clamp 1 has through holes at both ends, and a nut 5 is fixedly installed in the through holes.

[0023] When fastening the clamp 1 to the column, simply rotate the connecting rod 3 to make the clamps 1 on both sides of the connecting rod 3 move towards each other and finally clamp and fix them to the outer wall of the column. The operation is convenient and simple, and can be completed without the aid of tools. Moreover, the clamping effect is good and there will be no loosening problem.

[0024] A limiting groove 10 is provided on the clamp 1, and an elastic protective pad is installed on the inner wall of the limiting groove 10. The elastic protective pad can protect the column body when the clamp 1 clamps and fixes the column, and prevent the clamp 1 from damaging the column body.

[0025] Detailed implementation method: When reinforcing the columns in ancient buildings, firstly, two clamps 1 are symmetrically set along the central axis of the column. After adjusting the position, the two ends of the connecting rod 3 are inserted into the through holes of the two clamps 1. Rotating the connecting rod 3 causes the clamps 1 at both ends of the connecting rod 3 to move towards each other and finally clamp and fix it to the column. The upper and lower ends of the column are set simultaneously. The fit between the threaded section 4 on the connecting rod 3 and the nut 5 on the clamp 1 makes the operation very simple and convenient, requiring no tools at all, and the fixing and clamping effect is good, without any loosening problems.

[0026] After the positions of the upper and lower clamps 1 are fixed, adjust the extension length of the support rod 6 on the clamp plate 2, and fix the support rod 6 with the limiting screw 8. This is convenient and simple. Tighten the clamp plate 2 so that it can fit tightly against the outer wall of the column. At the same time, the clamp plate 2 exerts force on the upper and lower clamps 1, thereby completing the reinforcement effect of the column. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0027] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
