[0024] Among them, multiple sliders 10 are slidably arranged at the lower end inside the bridge body 1, and connecting blocks 16 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the multiple sliders 10. Connecting columns 15 are rotatably arranged at relative positions of the multiple connecting blocks 16 in pairs, and first fixed sleeves 13 are slidably arranged outside the multiple connecting columns 15. First buffer materials 12 are arranged inside the multiple first fixed sleeves 13 to provide buffering effect to the interior, and first springs 11 are fixedly connected to the multiple connecting columns 15 at opposite positions in pairs. The first spring 11 has telescopic and rebound effects. When the bridge body 1 is heated and expanded, the slider 10 slides inside the bridge body 1, and the connecting column 15 squeezes the first spring 11. The first spring 11 is compressed to obtain elasticity, and at the same time, the connecting rod 19 inside the second fixed sleeve 21 squeezes the second spring 20. The second spring 20 contracts, providing buffering to the interior, protecting the stability of the expansion joint, and reducing the occurrence of deformation.

[0025] In the above embodiment, the wear-resistant layer 5 is mainly made of aluminum oxide, which has high hardness and wear resistance, and reduces the wear caused by vehicle driving.
