Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of bridge anti-collision guardrails, and in particular to a self-resetting concrete anti-collision guardrail for bridge decks. Background Art

[0002] Bridge anti-collision guardrails play a role in protecting driving safety, preventing out-of-control vehicles from rushing out of the bridge deck, and beautifying bridge buildings. Bridge anti-collision guardrails can be divided into three types according to material classification: concrete guardrails, steel guardrails, and combined guardrails. Concrete guardrails are widely used in bridge structures due to their low cost, easy maintenance, and good durability. At present, most concrete guardrails are directly cast. Due to the protection level requirements, they are large in size and have high guardrail costs. Although the need for later maintenance is small, due to their high rigidity and poor energy consumption performance, they are very likely to aggravate the damage to vehicles and personnel during collisions. When the collision energy is too large, the brittle failure of concrete causes fragments to splash and easily cause greater damage to the site. In recent years, some new anti-collision guardrails have continued to emerge. The new anti-collision guardrails are required to have greater anti-collision rigidity, and at the same time, they are also expected to have characteristics such as self-reset and energy consumption. Existing concrete guardrails are difficult to achieve these functional requirements at the same time. Utility Model Content

[0003] In response to the development needs of bridge anti-collision guardrails, the present invention proposes a self-resetting concrete anti-collision guardrail for bridge decks, which can effectively overcome the problems of weak energy dissipation capacity of traditional reinforced concrete guardrails, inability to eliminate plastic deformation caused by vehicle impact, poor interface bonding performance with bridge decks, difficulty in repairing guardrails after vehicle impact, and inconvenient maintenance. It also has the advantages of simple structure and easy replacement of important components.

[0004] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solutions adopted by the present utility model are specifically described as follows:

[0005] A self-resetting concrete anti-collision guardrail for a bridge deck, characterized in that: the guardrail comprises a concrete guardrail body, a reset prestressed tendon, an energy-absorbing screw, a limit screw, a fixing nut, a gasket, a reset spring, a limit male joint, a limit female joint and a sealing mortar; the concrete guardrail body is a prefabricated component, 3-4 limit male joints are pre-embedded at equal intervals at the rear end of the concrete guardrail body, 6-9 vertical holes are reserved at equal intervals at the front end of the concrete guardrail body, and a horizontal platform is arranged above the holes; when installing the concrete guardrail body, the limit male joint at the rear end is first clamped The prestressed steel bar is inserted into the pre-buried limit female joint on the bridge deck, and then the reset prestressed steel bar, the energy-absorbing screw and the limit screw are sequentially passed through the reserved holes at the front end of the concrete guardrail body and the reserved holes on the bridge deck, and nuts and washers are used to fix the reset prestressed steel bar, the energy-absorbing screw and the limit screw respectively passing through the fixing nuts and washers; the reset prestressed steel bar is prestressed through the fixing nuts; a reset spring is also required to be installed on the upper end of the limit screw before installing the fixing nuts and washers; the sealing mortar is used to seal the upper and lower ends of all reserved holes after installing the fixing nuts and washers.

[0006] Preferably, the prefabricated length of the concrete guardrail body is 6-9 meters, the reserved vertical hole spacing is 1-2 meters, and the number of reserved vertical holes is a multiple of 3.

[0007] Preferably, the guardrail limiting male joint is embedded in the bridge deck limiting female joint, and after the embedding, the concrete guardrail can rotate around it after being hit by a vehicle to prevent excessive displacement of the guardrail.

[0008] Preferably, the return spring is compressed and deformed after the guardrail is hit and rotated to accumulate necessary return energy, and releases the return energy after the impact subsides to drive the guardrail to return to shape.

[0009] Preferably, the limit screw fixes the return spring and is fixed to the fixing nut at the bottom of the guardrail to limit excessive rotation of the guardrail, thereby ensuring the integrity of the guardrail and preventing vehicles from crossing the guardrail and rushing out of the bridge deck.

[0010] Preferably, the guardrail is provided with a fixing nut at the bottom of the lowest end of the vertical hole in the bridge deck, and both ends of the guardrail reset prestressed tendons and energy-absorbing screws are provided with threads. The bottom ends of the reset prestressed tendons and the energy-absorbing screws pass through the vertical holes and engage with the fixing nuts, and the upper ends are fixed by fixing nuts; preferably, after the upper end of the reset prestressed tendons is tensioned to generate prestress, the reset prestressed tendons are fixed to the horizontal platform by rotating the fixing nut.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. The guardrail proposed by the present invention has the characteristic of dissipating energy. The impact energy received by the guardrail structure is weakened by the deformation and destruction of the energy-consuming screw, and has good buffering performance. The guardrail has the characteristic of being resettable. The internal reset prestressed tendons and reset spring devices are used to convert the vehicle impact energy into recovery energy. After the impact, the reset prestressed tendons and reset springs restore their original lengths to reset the columns. The guardrail is safe. The maximum movement range of the guardrail is limited by the limit screw, thereby controlling the displacement of the guardrail in the event of a collision to avoid potential structural damage caused by excessive movement.

[0014] 2. The guardrail reset prestressed tendons and energy dissipation screws proposed by the present invention can be freely adjusted to meet the needs of high-risk traffic sections. This method enhances the energy dissipation capacity of the guardrail system by increasing the number of important components, and in the event of a collision, through the synergistic effect of the reset prestressed tendons, effectively improves the impact impedance and self-recovery function of the anti-collision guardrail.

[0015] 3. The self-resetting concrete anti-collision guardrail proposed in the present invention has a stable structure. By assembling the reset prestressed tendons, energy-absorbing screws and limit screws, and connecting with the bridge deck fixing nuts, the physical connection stability of the entire anti-collision guardrail and the bridge is ensured, the interface bonding performance between the guardrail and the bridge deck is improved, and the impact resistance of the overall structure is increased.
