Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bridge construction, and more specifically, to a foldable steel beam used for the transverse movement of a bridge erecting machine. Background Art

[0002] When a large-tonnage bridge-erecting machine is used to erect bridge beams, the middle leg of the bridge-erecting machine needs to move horizontally by means of a steel beam underneath. The length of the steel beam is generally more than 30 meters. After the bridge-erecting machine has erected one hole of a beam, the middle leg of the bridge-erecting machine needs to hang the steel beam and move forward one hole. The overhangs at both ends of the steel beam cause inconvenience in construction. In addition, if there are vertical protruding obstacles on both sides of the beam to be erected (such as outer retaining wall steel bars), the steel beam needs to be disassembled into multiple sections each time it moves forward, and then tied together. After the overall forward movement is completed, the multiple sections of the disassembled steel beam need to be untied and then connected as a whole. Each disassembly and assembly is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the operation is inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0022] Among them, two adjacent first steel beams 1 are hinged by a first connecting device; and two adjacent second steel beams 2 are detachably connected by a second connecting device.

[0023] In the technical scheme, the first steel beam 1 and the second steel beam 2 of any steel beam section are connected to form a stable space frame structure through a connecting beam, the connecting beam includes two transverse connecting beams 3 and an oblique connecting beam 4, the two transverse connecting beams 3 and the oblique connecting beam 4 form a Z-shaped structure, and the track 5 is the transverse track 5 of the legs in the bridge erection machine; the two adjacent first steel beams 1 are hinged by a first connecting device, and the two adjacent second steel beams 2 are detachably connected by a second connecting device. In the initial state, the steel beams are in an extended state, and the two first steel beams 1 are hinged by the first connecting device. The two second steel beams 2 are connected together as a whole through a second connecting device; when the bridge-building machine needs to pass through a hole and the two ends of the steel beam are cantilevered too long, the two second steel beams 2 can be separated by the second connecting device, and the two first steel beams 1 can be folded by the first connecting device to transform the steel beams into a folded state, so that the bridge-building machine can pass through the hole smoothly. The utility model uses a hinged design to ensure that the two adjacent steel beam sections always maintain a connection relationship even in a folded state, which can reduce the binding and disassembly work, and at the same time can improve the alignment efficiency during installation and improve construction efficiency.

[0024] In another technical solution, the first connecting device includes:

[0025] Two first flange plates 6, which are arranged between two adjacent first steel beams 1, and any first flange plate 6 is fixedly connected to the end of the corresponding first steel beam 1;

[0026] The hinge 7 has two hinged parts respectively connected to the two first flange plates 6 , and the hinge 7 is arranged close to the outer side of the first steel beam 1 .

[0027] In the present technical solution, the two first steel beams 1 are hinged via a hinge 7 , and the first flange plate 6 facilitates the installation of the hinge 7 .

[0028] In another technical solution, the second connecting device includes two second flange plates 8, which are arranged between two adjacent second steel beams 2. Any second flange plate 8 is fixedly connected to the end of the corresponding second steel beam 2, and the two second flange plates 8 are detachably connected by multiple first bolts 9.

[0029] In the present technical solution, the detachable connection arrangement through the first bolt 9 has the advantages of simple structure and convenient installation and disassembly.

[0030] In another technical solution, a plurality of first bolts 9 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the second flange plate 8 .

[0031] In the present technical solution, the first bolts 9 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the second flange plate 8, which can ensure the stability of the connection between the two second steel beams 2 when the steel beams are in the extended state.

[0032] In another technical solution, the first connecting device further includes a plurality of second bolts 10 , which are disposed close to the inner side of the first steel beam 1 and are used to detachably connect the two first flanges located on the inner side of the first steel beam 1 .

[0033] In the present technical solution, a second bolt 10 is arranged on the inner side of the first flange to improve the stability of the connection between the two first steel beams 1 when the steel beams are in the extended state. When the bridge erection machine needs to pass through the hole, the second bolt 10 needs to be removed.
