Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of arch rib transverse movement technology, and in particular to a transverse movement device, transverse movement system and rotary arch rib transverse movement method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the application of upper-bearing steel-concrete composite arch bridges is becoming increasingly common in highway and railway bridge construction. The lateral movement of the arch ribs during the construction process of these bridges is particularly crucial.

[0003] The existing construction method usually involves transporting the arch ribs along the longitudinal direction of the bridge to the designated hoisting area by transport vehicles before lifting them. This process is relatively mature and has moderate requirements for the construction site.

[0004] The existing technical solutions described above have the following drawbacks: In certain special construction environments, especially in urban bridge construction or complex mountainous terrain, due to space constraints, the processing of the arch ribs must be carried out perpendicular to the bridge direction. In this case, after the arch ribs are transported, they need to be moved laterally first, and the transport vehicle also needs to make a large-span U-turn. This not only significantly increases the demand for construction space and leads to resource waste, but also poses a great challenge to the safety control of the lateral movement process due to the large size and extremely high weight of the arch rib structure.

The front end of the arch rib segment is mounted on the first lateral movement vehicle, and the rear end of the arch rib segment is mounted on the second lateral movement vehicle. The turntable is disposed on the first lateral movement vehicle and the second lateral movement vehicle, and the turntable can rotate relative to the lateral movement carrier. The arch rib segment is mounted on the turntable. The steel wire rope passes around the arch rib segment and is fastened to both sides of the turntable.

[0023] Currently, the application of upper-bearing steel-concrete composite arch bridges is becoming increasingly common in highway and railway bridge construction. The lateral movement of the arch ribs during the construction process of these bridges is particularly crucial.

[0024] The existing construction method usually involves transporting the arch ribs along the longitudinal direction of the bridge to the designated hoisting area by transport vehicles before lifting them. This process is relatively mature and has moderate requirements for the construction site.

[0025] The existing technical solutions described above have the following drawbacks: In certain special construction environments, especially in urban bridge construction or complex mountainous terrain, due to space constraints, the processing of the arch ribs must be carried out perpendicular to the bridge direction. In this case, after the arch ribs are transported, they need to be moved laterally first, and the transport vehicle also needs to make a large-span U-turn. This not only significantly increases the demand for construction space and leads to resource waste, but also poses a great challenge to the safety control of the lateral movement process due to the large size and extremely high weight of the arch rib structure.

[0026] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 One embodiment of this application provides a lateral movement device 100, which includes a lateral movement carrier 10, a turntable 20, and a steel wire rope 30. The lateral movement carrier 10 is used to transport or laterally move an arch rib segment 60. The lateral movement carrier 10 includes a first lateral movement vehicle 11 and a second lateral movement vehicle 12. The front end of the arch rib segment 60 is mounted on the first lateral movement vehicle 11, and the rear end of the arch rib segment 60 is mounted on the second lateral movement vehicle 12. The turntable 20 is disposed on the first lateral movement vehicle 11 and the second lateral movement vehicle 12, and the turntable 20 can rotate relative to the lateral movement carrier 10. The arch rib segment 60 is mounted on the turntable 20. The steel wire rope 30 passes around the arch rib segment 60 and is fastened to both sides of the turntable 20.

[0028] Thus, the first lateral moving vehicle 11 and the second lateral moving vehicle 12 can transport and move the arch rib segment 60 more flexibly, reducing the scope requirements of the construction site when the arch rib segment 60 is moved laterally, and effectively reducing the site area required for the lateral moving vehicle 10 to turn around.

[0029] In this embodiment, the arch rib segment 60 needs to be prefabricated in a factory and then transported to the bridge construction area by a transport vehicle. However, in actual construction, the transportation process faces many challenges because the arch rib segment 60 needs to be prefabricated in the factory and then transported to the bridge construction site. On the one hand, the winding and rugged transport roads in some areas are not conducive to the passage of large transport vehicles. On the other hand, due to the limitations of the surrounding environment and complex terrain of the construction site, the transport vehicles often have difficulty turning around. In addition, due to limited site space, the arch rib segment 60 sometimes has to be transported to the construction area in a direction perpendicular to the bridge's orientation, and then the arch rib segment 60 needs to be rotated and adjusted to be parallel to the bridge axis before installation can be carried out. This special transportation and positioning requirement not only increases the construction difficulty but also places higher demands on the limited construction site space, further restricting the flexibility of construction organization.

[0030] In this embodiment, the arch rib segment 60 can be transported and moved laterally using a lateral movement device 100. This device 100 includes a lateral movement vehicle 10, which comprises a first lateral movement vehicle 11 and a second lateral movement vehicle 12. During transport, the first lateral movement vehicle 11 acts as the front vehicle carrying the front end of the arch rib segment 60, while the second lateral movement vehicle 12 acts as the rear vehicle supporting the rear end of the arch rib segment 60. The two vehicles work together to achieve the overall transport of the arch rib segment 60. Simultaneously, turntables 20 are provided on both the first lateral movement vehicle 11 and the second lateral movement vehicle 12. By mounting the front and rear ends of the arch rib segment 60 onto the turntables 20 of the first lateral movement vehicle 11 and the second lateral movement vehicle 12 respectively, the entire segment possesses dynamic adjustment capabilities, significantly improving transport flexibility.

[0031] For example, it facilitates turning for the first and second lateral moving vehicles 11 and 12, which are equipped with the arch rib segment 60. Specifically, when navigating a curve (such as a left-turn right-angle turn), the vehicle in front can turn first, while the vehicle behind maintains its original direction or adjusts its trajectory appropriately (such as adjusting its trajectory to the right). The vehicle behind then completes its turn after reaching the turning position. Simultaneously, the turntable 20 allows the arch rib segment 60 to rotate freely around the vertical Y-axis, enabling its front and rear ends to adaptively adjust to any angle between the directions of travel of the front and rear vehicles. This avoids the steering constraints imposed by the fixed orientation of the arch rib segment 60, significantly improving transport adaptability and safety in complex terrain.

[0032] Furthermore, the turntable 20 can also rotate relative to the lateral transport vehicle 10 around the X-axis. When the arch rib segment 60 is installed on the lateral transport vehicle 10, and the arch rib segment 60, the lateral transport vehicle 10, and the arch rib segment 60 are aligned in a straight line, the arch rib segment 60 is perpendicular to the X-axis. This allows the arch rib segment 60 to pitch and rotate at a certain angle relative to the first lateral transport vehicle 11 and the second lateral transport vehicle 12 with the help of the turntable 20. When traversing uneven and bumpy road sections, the X-axis rotation function of the turntable 20 allows the arch rib segment 60 to adaptively adjust its pitch angle according to changes in terrain, effectively alleviating local stress concentration caused by uneven road surfaces. Simultaneously, combined with the rotational freedom in the horizontal plane, a multi-directional spatial adjustment mechanism is formed, ensuring that the arch rib segment 60 always remains in an optimal stress state. This significantly improves the adaptability of the transportation system to complex terrain, ensuring the stability of heavy-load transportation while avoiding adverse effects on the structural integrity of the arch rib segment 60. It is particularly suitable for harsh construction environments such as mountain bridge construction.

[0033] Meanwhile, after the arch rib segment 60 is transported to the bridge construction area and unloaded, the two smaller lateral transport vehicles, compared to traditional large transport vehicles, have a more convenient and flexible turning radius due to their compact size. Thus, the two lateral transport vehicles 10 allow for more flexible transportation and lateral movement of the arch rib segment 60, reducing the area required for the construction site during lateral movement and effectively minimizing the space needed for the lateral transport vehicles 10 to turn around.

[0034] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the specific connection method between the turntable 20 and the traverse vehicle is not limited to meet various needs. For example, the connection method between the turntable 20 and the traverse vehicle can be a universal joint connection, a ball joint connection, etc., to adapt to the turning and bumpy road conditions of the first traverse vehicle 11 and the second traverse vehicle 12, so as to ensure the safe transportation and traverse movement of the arch rib segment 60. In some embodiments, the turntable 20 can also be configured to rotate around the Z-axis to adapt to more complex bumpy road sections. At the same time, in this embodiment, it is not limited to which traverse vehicle the turntable 20 is set on, to meet various needs. For example, the turntable 20 can be set on both the first traverse vehicle 11 and the second traverse vehicle 12, or the first traverse vehicle 11 can have a turntable 20 set on the second traverse vehicle 12, or the first traverse vehicle 11 can have a turntable 20 set on the second traverse vehicle 12, or the first traverse vehicle 11 can have a turntable 20 set on the second traverse vehicle 12.

[0035] In this embodiment, to ensure transportation safety, the arch rib segment 60 is secured to the turntable 20 using steel wire ropes 30. Specifically, high-strength steel wire ropes 30 are wrapped around the top of the arch rib segment 60 and symmetrically anchored to both sides of the turntable 20, forming a stable constraint system. This reliably secures the arch rib segment 60 using steel wire ropes 30, effectively preventing accidental slippage or detachment during transportation. The symmetrically distributed binding points ensure balanced force distribution on the steel wire ropes 30, avoiding localized stress concentration. Simultaneously, this binding path of the steel wire ropes 30 avoids the movement space of the turntable 20, ensuring reliable fixation without affecting the multi-degree-of-freedom rotation function of the turntable 20.

[0036] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, a limiting pad 40 is also provided on the turntable 20. The limiting pad 40 has a concave cross section, and the arch rib segment 60 is installed on the limiting pad 40. The initial positioning and limiting are achieved by embedding the arch rib segment 60 in the groove of the limiting pad 40.

[0037] Thus, the limiting pad 40 can further fix and restrict the arch rib segment 60 in a specific area on the turntable 20, further preventing the arch rib segment 60 from moving. At the same time, the limiting pad 40 can also filter some vibrations, avoiding damage to the arch rib segment 60 during transportation or lateral movement.

[0038] In this embodiment, a limiting pad 40 is also provided on the turntable 20. The limiting pad 40 has a concave cross-section. The arch rib segment 60 is embedded in the groove of the limiting pad 40 to achieve preliminary positioning and limiting. At the same time, the groove structure of the limiting pad 40 is adapted to the shape of the arch rib segment 60, which can not only provide the necessary constraint to prevent horizontal displacement, but also form a complementary three-dimensional fixing system with the upper wire rope 30 fastening system.

[0039] Furthermore, the limiting pad 40 can be made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity (such as polyurethane or high-density rubber). This allows it to absorb vibration energy during transportation through elastic deformation, providing necessary constraints while allowing for slight displacement of the arch rib segment 60, thus avoiding localized stress concentration in the arch rib segment 60 caused by rigid contact. Its damping characteristics can also effectively suppress resonance. This composite fixing method of "rigid constraint + elastic limiting" ensures transportation safety while also meeting the needs of the turntable's more than 20 degrees of freedom adjustment.

[0040] Please see Figure 3 In some embodiments, the transverse carrier 10 further includes a limiter 13, and a limit groove 21 is formed on the turntable 20. The limit groove 21 is used to limit the rotation of the turntable 20 relative to the transverse carrier 10 about the Y-axis and / or limit the rotation of the turntable 20 relative to the transverse carrier 10 about the X-axis.

[0041] In this way, the limiter 13 restricts the rotation of the turntable 20, which not only ensures the safety of transportation, but also preserves the degree of freedom of rotation when necessary.

[0042] In this embodiment, a limiting groove 21 is formed on the turntable 20, and a limiter 13 is provided on the transverse carrier 10. When the turntable 20 needs to rotate, the limiter 13 retracts from the limiting groove 21, releasing the limiting effect on the turntable 20 and allowing the turntable 20 to rotate flexibly. When it is necessary to fix the turntable 20, the limiter 13 is inserted into the limiting groove 21 to restrict the rotation of the turntable 20.

[0043] Specifically, when the traverse vehicle 10 is transporting the arch rib segment 60 on a straight road, the limiter 13 can lock the rotation of the turntable 20 around the Y-axis, ensuring that the traverse vehicle 10 and the arch rib segment 60 as a whole maintain a stable posture, thus improving the transport efficiency of the traverse vehicle 10. When the traverse vehicle 10 needs to pass through curves or complex terrain while transporting the arch rib segment 60, the locking of the corresponding axis can be selectively released. For example, only the X-axis can be allowed to rotate to adapt to the longitudinal slope, or only the Y-axis can be allowed to rotate for lateral leveling. Of course, the restrictions on the X-axis and Y-axis can also be released simultaneously, so that the traverse vehicle 10 can pass through more complex road conditions more flexibly. For example, when the traverse vehicle 10 is transporting the arch rib segment 60 from a straight road to a sharp curve with a slope (such as a mountain road), the bidirectional rotation of the turntable 20 on the X and Y axes can reduce the stress on the arch rib segment 60 while ensuring that the traverse vehicle 10 can pass through more flexibly, thus ensuring the safe transport of the arch rib segment 60.

[0044] In this embodiment, the specific number of limiters 13 and limit slots 21 is not limited to meet various needs. For example, the specific number of limiters 13 and limit slots 21 can be 1, 2, 3, etc., to satisfy the multi-directional and multi-angle limiting effect on the turntable 20. For example, the specific number of limiters 13 and limit slots 21 can be 3, respectively used to limit the rotation of the turntable 20 in the X, Y, and Z directions. Alternatively, multiple limiters 13 and limit slots 21 can be provided in one direction. Multiple limiters 13 and limit slots 21 in the same direction can produce a stronger limiting effect on the same rotation direction of the turntable 20, increasing the performance of the limiters 13 in the same rotation direction.

[0045] Of course, one limiter 13 and multiple limit slots 21 (or multiple limiters 13 and one limit slot 21) can be set in one direction to precisely limit the rotation angle of the turntable 20. For example, when there is one limiter 13 and three limit slots 21 on the Y-axis, the limiter 13 is engaged in the first limit slot 21, restricting the turntable 20 to rotate only from 0 to 60 degrees; the limiter 13 is engaged in the second limit slot 21, restricting the turntable 20 to rotate only from 0 to 30 degrees; and the limiter 13 is engaged in the third limit slot 21, preventing the turntable 20 from rotating. Alternatively, when there is one limiter 13 and three limit slots 21 on the Y-axis, the limiter 13 is engaged in the first limit slot 21, limiting the angle of the turntable 20 to be fixed at 60 degrees; the limiter 13 is engaged in the second limit slot 21, limiting the angle of the turntable 20 to be fixed at 30 degrees; and the limiter 13 is engaged in the third limit slot 21, limiting the angle of the turntable 20 to be fixed at 0 degrees.

[0046] It should be noted that when loading the arch rib segment 60 onto the vehicle before transportation, the turntable 20 should be locked by the limiter 13 to prevent the arch rib segment 60 from rotating with the turntable 20 during installation, which would cause installation difficulties and avoid installation risks.

[0047] Please see Figure 3 In some embodiments, a plurality of fixing rings 22 are formed on the turntable 20. The fixing rings 22 are circular holes that pass through the turntable 20, and the wire rope 30 is connected to the turntable 20 through the fixing rings 22.

[0048] This allows the wire rope 30 to secure the arch rib segment 60 to the turntable 20 via the fixing ring 22.

[0049] In this embodiment, a plurality of fixing rings 22 are symmetrically and evenly formed at both ends of the turntable 20 along the X-axis direction. This facilitates the connection of the wire ropes 30 to the turntable 20 through the fixing rings 22, thereby securing the arch rib segment 60 to the turntable 20. For example, when three fixing rings 22 are formed on the left side of the turntable 20, three fixing rings 22 are also formed on the right side of the turntable 20. A total of six fixing rings 22 on the left and right sides of one turntable 20 can connect three wire ropes 30. Multiple wire ropes 30 can further secure the arch rib segment 60 installed on the turntable 20, increasing the securing redundancy.

[0050] In this embodiment, the specific number of fixing rings 22 on the turntable 20 is not limited to meet various requirements. For example, the number of fixing rings 22 can be 2, 4, 6, 8, etc., as long as the fixing rings 22 on both sides of the turntable 20 are symmetrically distributed and the number is equal.

[0051] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the traverse vehicle 10 is provided with a braking device 50 for driving the traverse vehicle 10 to move and park.

[0052] In this way, the braking system can provide the necessary power to the lateral vehicle 10.

[0053] In this embodiment, braking devices 50 are provided on both the first traverse vehicle 11 and the second traverse vehicle 12. The braking device 50 may include an internal combustion engine or electric motor for driving the traverse vehicle 10, as well as a power unit required for braking and parking (such as a motor required for an electronic parking brake), and may also include a drive motor for driving the limiter 13 to engage or disengage from the limiter slot 21. This allows both the first traverse vehicle 11 and the second traverse vehicle 12 to obtain the power and braking / parking capability required for transporting objects, while providing the necessary power for the extension and retraction of the limiter 13 on both vehicles, facilitating the restriction or release of rotation of the turntable 20.

[0054] Please see Figure 4 This application embodiment also provides a lateral movement system 200, which includes a lifting device 201 and any of the above-mentioned lateral movement devices 100. The lifting device 201 is used to lift the arch rib segment 60. The lifting device 201 includes a cable 202 and a lifting device 203. During the lifting process of the lifting device 201, the lifting device 203 connects to the arch rib segment 60, and the cable 202 is used to lower or raise the lifting device 203.

[0055] In this application embodiment, the type of the traverse system 200 is not limited to meet various needs. The traverse system 200 can be a track-type traverse system 200, a walking traverse system 200, etc. The traverse system 200 can have all the technical features and effects of the traverse device 100 described above, enabling the traverse system 200 to operate in a smaller work area, while having better operational stability and service life, thus improving the user experience.

[0056] In this embodiment, after the lateral transport device 100 transports the arch rib segment 60 to the bridge construction site, the lifting device 201 lowers the cable 202, causing the lifting device 203 at the end of the cable 202 to descend smoothly and reliably connect with the arch rib segment 60. After connection, the lifting device 201 can safely lift the arch rib segment 60, smoothly unloading it from the lateral transport device 10. Simultaneously, it can precisely lift the arch rib segment 60 to the designated installation position on the bridge arch rib, thereby efficiently advancing the construction process of the bridge's main structure. This ensures both the safe transfer of the arch rib segment 60 and provides a reliable guarantee for the overall installation of the bridge.

[0057] Of course, after the lifting device 203 is connected to the arch rib segment 60, the wire rope 30 must be disassembled first so that the arch rib segment 60 can be detached from the lateral transport carrier 10 and lifted by the lifting device 203. Furthermore, to ensure the safety of the lifting process, multiple cables 202 can be used to connect one lifting device 203. In this embodiment, the number of cables 202 connected to one lifting device 203 is not specifically limited to meet various needs. For example, the number of cables 202 connected to one lifting device 203 can be 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.

[0058] Please see Figure 4 In some embodiments, the lifting device 203 includes a first lifting device 204 and a second lifting device 205, which are used to connect the two ends of the arch rib segment 60.

[0059] In this way, different lifting devices 203 are arranged to connect to both ends of the arch rib segment 60, so that the arch rib segment 60 can be lifted stably and smoothly.

[0060] In this embodiment, the lifting device 203 includes a first lifting bracket 204 and a second lifting bracket 205. The first lifting bracket 204 can be connected to the front end of the arch rib segment 60, and the second lifting bracket 205 can be connected to the rear end of the arch rib segment 60. This dual-point lifting design ensures that the arch rib segment 60 remains balanced during lifting, avoiding the risk of structural deformation or tilting caused by single-point stress. Simultaneously, the coordinated operation of the two lifting brackets can evenly distribute the load, improve lifting stability, and keep the arch rib segment 60 under control throughout the lifting, transportation, and installation processes, thereby ensuring construction safety and installation accuracy.

[0061] In this embodiment, the specific number of the first lifting fixture 204 and the second lifting fixture 205 is not limited to meet various needs. For example, there can be two first lifting fixtures 204, which are respectively connected to both sides of the front end of the arch rib segment 60, so that the left and right sides of the front end of the arch rib segment 60 can be kept balanced after being lifted. Correspondingly, there can also be two second lifting fixtures 205, which are respectively connected to both sides of the rear end of the arch rib segment 60, so that the left and right sides of the rear end of the arch rib segment 60 can be kept balanced after being lifted. Of course, there can be other quantities of the first lifting fixture 204 and the second lifting fixture 205. For example, there can be 1, 4, 6, etc. of the first lifting fixture 204 and the second lifting fixture 205, which will not be elaborated here.

[0062] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the arch rib segment 60 includes a first lifting lug 61 and a second lifting lug 62 formed at both ends, and a lifting device 203 connects the first lifting lug 61 and the second lifting lug 62. The first lifting lug 61 is located at the front end of the arch rib segment 60, and the second lifting lug 62 is located at the rear end of the arch rib segment 60.

[0063] During the hoisting process of the lifting device 201, the first lifting bracket 204 is connected to the first lifting lug 61, and the second lifting bracket 205 is connected to the second lifting lug 62.

[0064] Thus, the lifting device 201's lifting lug 203 can more easily lift the arch rib segment 60 by connecting to the lifting lug of the arch rib segment 60.

[0065] In this embodiment, the arch rib segment 60 is provided with a first lifting lug 61 and a second lifting lug 62. In this way, when the lifting device 203 connects to the arch rib segment 60, the arch rib segment 60 with the lifting lug can achieve quick and accurate docking with the lifting device 203, avoiding the instability risk caused by temporary binding, while ensuring that the stress point is professionally calculated to prevent structural damage to the arch rib segment 60 during hoisting.

[0066] Specifically, during the hoisting of the arch rib segment 60, the first lifting device 204 is connected to the first lifting lug 61 at the front end of the arch rib segment 60, and the second lifting device 205 is connected to the second lifting lug 62 at the rear end of the arch rib segment 60. In this way, the coordinated work of the front and rear ends can evenly distribute the load, improve the hoisting stability, and keep the arch rib segment 60 under control during the hoisting, transportation and installation process, thereby ensuring construction safety and installation accuracy.

[0067] In this embodiment, the specific number of the first lifting lugs 61 and the second lifting lugs 62 on the arch rib segment 60 is not limited to meet various needs. For example, there can be two first lifting lugs 61, with two first lifting brackets 204 respectively connecting to the first lifting lugs 61 on both sides of the front end of the arch rib segment 60, so that the left and right sides of the front end of the arch rib segment 60 can remain balanced after being lifted; correspondingly, there can also be two second lifting lugs 62, with two second lifting brackets 205 respectively connecting to the second lifting lugs 62 on both sides of the front end of the arch rib segment 60, so that the left and right sides of the front end of the arch rib segment 60 can remain balanced after being lifted.

[0068] Of course, the number of the first lug 61 and the second lug 62 can also be set in other ways. For example, the number of the first lug 61 and the second lug 62 can be 1, 4, 6, etc., which will not be elaborated here.

[0069] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 This application also provides a method for lateral movement of a rotating arch rib, which is used in the lateral movement system 200 of any of the above claims. The method includes:

[0070] S1, the first lifting lug 61 is connected to the first lifting device 204, one end of the arch rib segment 60 is lifted from the first transverse transfer vehicle 11 to a predetermined height, and the first transverse transfer vehicle 11 is driven away from the lifting area;

[0071] S2, release the limiter 13 on the turntable 20 on the second transverse transfer vehicle 12, the first hoist 204 moves forward slowly, and at the same time moves the second transverse transfer vehicle 12 to adjust the direction of the arch rib segment 60 to the direction along the bridge.

[0072] S3, connect the second lifting lug 62 of the arch rib segment 60 to the second lifting device 205, slowly lift the second lifting lug 62 to the same horizontal line as the first lifting lug 61, and drive the second lateral moving vehicle 12 away from the lifting area.

[0073] In this way, the lateral movement of the arch rib segment 60 can be completed in a relatively small construction site, while the lateral movement vehicle 10 can also turn around.

[0074] In this embodiment, when the area for hoisting materials in the bridge construction area is small, and after the lateral transport vehicle 10 transports the arch rib segment 60 to the bridge construction area, the lateral transport vehicle 10 and the arch rib segment 60 are perpendicular (or at a certain angle) to the bridge construction direction, making it inconvenient to directly lift the arch rib segment 60 for bridge construction, the lifting device 201 will lower the lifting device 203 via the cable 202 to lift the arch rib segment 60. The first lifting attachment 204 of the lifting device 203 is lowered to the location of the first lateral transport vehicle 11 and connected to the first lifting lug 61 at the front end of the arch rib segment 60 on the first lateral transport vehicle 11. Simultaneously, before the first lifting attachment 204 lifts, the steel wire rope 30 used to secure the front end of the arch rib segment 60 on the first lateral transport vehicle 11 is removed, facilitating the lifting device 201 to lift the front end of the arch rib segment 60 to a predetermined height. Once the front end of the arch rib segment 60 has been hoisted to the predetermined height, in order to ensure that the second lateral moving vehicle 12 can smoothly enter the smaller hoisting area, and at the same time ensure the lateral moving space requirements of the arch rib segment 60, the first lateral moving vehicle 11 needs to be driven away from the hoisting area. Since the first lateral moving vehicle 11 is smaller in size than traditional large transport vehicles and requires a smaller turning radius, it can be turned around and driven away from the hoisting lateral moving area.

[0075] Furthermore, after the first lateral moving vehicle 11 has left the lifting and lateral moving area, the limiter 13 of the second lateral moving vehicle 12 releases the rotation restriction on the turntable 20 (especially the rotation restriction around the Y-axis). Then, the lifting device 201 drives the first lifting device 204 forward, causing the front end of the arch rib segment 60 to move slowly forward along the bridge construction direction, so that the arch rib segment 60 faces the bridge construction direction. At the same time, to ensure that the arch rib segment 60 can move smoothly laterally, the second lateral moving vehicle 12 moves, causing the rear end of the arch rib segment 60 to move together. So that, under the action of the turntable 20 and in coordination with the first lifting device 204, the arch rib segment 60 is rotated and lateralized to the direction of bridge construction.

[0076] Furthermore, after the second traverse vehicle 12, in conjunction with the first lifting device 204, aligns the arch rib segment 60 entirely with the bridge's construction direction, the second lifting device 205 of the lifting device 203 is lowered to the position of the second traverse vehicle 12 and connected to the second lifting lug 62 at the rear end of the arch rib segment 60 on the second traverse vehicle 12. Simultaneously, before the second lifting device 205 lifts, the steel wire rope 30 used to secure the rear end of the arch rib segment 60 on the second traverse vehicle 12 is removed, facilitating the lifting device 201 to lift the rear end of the arch rib segment 60 to the predetermined height. Once the front end of the arch rib segment 60 has been lifted to the predetermined height, the second lifting lug 62 and the first lifting lug 61 are at the same horizontal level; that is, the rear end of the arch rib segment 60 is lifted to the same height as the front end. Then, the second lateral moving vehicle 12 is turned around and driven away from the bridge construction area. This allows the lateral movement of the arch rib segment 60 to be completed in a smaller construction area, so that the arch rib segment 60 is aligned with the construction direction of the bridge. At the same time, the lateral moving vehicle 10 can be turned around and driven away, which facilitates the subsequent installation of the bridge arch rib segment 60.

[0077] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the predetermined height ranges from 10 to 20 cm.

[0078] In this way, different predetermined heights can accommodate different lateral movement requirements.

[0079] In this embodiment, the range of the predetermined height is not limited to meet various needs. For example, the range of the predetermined height can be 10cm, 11cm, 12cm, 13cm, 14cm, 15cm, 16cm, 17cm, 18cm, 19cm, or 20cm. Specifically, when the required lifting height for lateral movement is low, the predetermined height can be set to 10cm; when the required lifting height for lateral movement is high, the predetermined height can be set to 20cm.
