Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0018] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0019] Reference Figure 1-3 The utility model provides a bridge expansion device, including two mounting plates 1, which are respectively mounted on different bridges 2 on both sides of the bridge 2 connection. The mounting plates 1 are elastic plates, and a buffer assembly is installed in each mounting plate 1. A first comb plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top surface of any mounting plate 1, and a second comb plate 4 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the other mounting plate 1. The first comb plate 3 is adapted to the second comb plate 4, and a gap is left between the first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4. A limit assembly is installed between the first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4. By installing the buffer assembly in the mounting plate 1, the instantaneous load generated by the vehicle when the vehicle passes can be buffered to prevent it from impacting the mounting plate 1 and the bridge 2, reduce the impact on the bridge 2, and increase the service life of the expansion device. At the same time, a limit assembly is installed between the first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4, so that it can also ensure the relative position of the first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4 when the expansion joint is deformed, and the two will not be misaligned up and down, so that the bridge 2 is more flat as a whole and easy to use.

[0020] In a specific embodiment, the buffer assembly includes a first accommodating cavity and a second accommodating cavity opened in the mounting plate 1, a first accommodating box 5 is fixedly connected in the first accommodating cavity, a first slide plate 6 is slidably connected in the first accommodating box 5, the first slide plate 6 is adapted to the inner wall of the first accommodating box 5, a push rod 7 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the first slide plate 6, the top end of the push rod 7 passes through the top wall of the first accommodating box 5 and the mounting plate 1, a pressing plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top end of the push rod 7, and the pressing plate 8 is flush with the top surface of the mounting plate 1; the second accommodating cavity is located on one side of the first accommodating cavity, and a second accommodating box 5 is fixedly connected in the second accommodating cavity. The first storage box 9 is provided with a connecting pipe 10 between the first storage box 5 and the second storage box 9. The connecting port of the connecting pipe 10 and the first storage box 5 is located below the first slide plate 6. The second storage box 9 is slidably connected with the second slide plate 11. The second slide plate 11 is vertically arranged. The connecting port of the connecting pipe 10 and the second storage box 9 is located on one side of the second slide plate 11. A telescopic rod 12 is installed between the other side of the second slide plate 11 and the side wall of the second storage box 9. A return spring 13 is wound around the telescopic rod 12. The area where the first storage box 5 and the second storage box 9 are connected is filled with hydraulic oil 14. Specifically, the telescopic rod 12 is a common sleeve rod that can realize a telescopic structure, that is, it includes a fixed sleeve and a slide rod. One end of the slide rod is slidably installed in the fixed sleeve. This structure is a prior art and will not be described in detail here. When a vehicle passes, a large instantaneous load will be generated on the mounting plate 1. The pressure plate 8 will be displaced downward under the action of the first comb plate 3 or the second comb plate 4, thereby pushing the first slide plate 6 to move downward. The first slide plate 6 squeezes the second slide plate 11 through the hydraulic oil 14, causing the second slide plate 11 to slide and squeeze the reset spring 13, thereby absorbing the impact generated and preventing the load from damaging the mounting plate 1 and the bridge 2. After the vehicle passes, the second slide plate 11 moves back under the reset spring 13, slowly driving the first slide plate 6 to reset. Using hydraulic buffering can prevent the overall structure from sudden changes under external loads, prevent the structure from being damaged, and increase its service life.

[0021] In a specific embodiment, the limiting assembly includes a plurality of limiting slide grooves 15 provided on the second comb tooth plate 4, the limiting slide grooves 15 are located on both sides of the convex teeth of the second comb tooth plate 4, the limiting slide grooves 15 are arranged horizontally, and the convex teeth of the first comb tooth plate 3 are provided with receiving grooves 16 corresponding to the limiting slide grooves 15 on both sides, and the receiving grooves 16 are slidably connected with a limiting slider 17, one end of the limiting slider 17 passes through the side wall of the receiving groove 16 and is located in the limiting slide groove 15, the limiting slider 17 is slidably adapted to the limiting slide groove 15, and a compression spring 18 is fixedly connected between the other end of the limiting slider 17 and the inner wall of the receiving groove 16. The limiting slider 17 is located in the limiting slide groove 15 below and to the left of the compression spring 18, and can limit the vertical direction of the first comb tooth plate 3 and the second comb tooth plate 4 to ensure the stability of both. At the same time, since the compression spring 18 is an elastic structure, the elastic structure will not affect the displacement of the first comb tooth plate 3 and the second comb tooth plate 4, and can also allow the first comb tooth plate 3 and the second comb tooth plate 4 to rebound after displacement to a certain extent.

[0022] In a specific embodiment, a plurality of positioning holes 19 are provided on the first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4, a plurality of embedded sleeves 20 are fixedly embedded on the mounting plate 1 corresponding to the positioning holes 19, bolts 21 adapted to the embedded sleeves 20 are installed at the positioning holes 19, and the first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4 are respectively fixedly connected to the mounting plate 1 by the bolts 21. The first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4 are installed and fixed by the bolts 21 to ensure structural stability.

[0023] In a specific embodiment, the positioning hole 19 is a square hole, in which a rubber block 22 is embedded, and a groove matching the bolt 21 is formed at the bottom of the rubber block 22, and the top surface of the rubber block 22 is flush with the top surface of the first comb plate 3 or the second comb plate 4. The rubber block 22 limits the bolt 21 so that it is not easy for the bolt 21 to loosen due to vibration during use, thereby ensuring the stability of the structure.

[0024] In a specific embodiment, a waterproof plate 23 is fixedly connected between the two mounting plates 1. The waterproof plate 23 is an arc-shaped plate with a concave top surface, and a filter plate 24 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the waterproof plate 23. The filter plate 24 can filter the fallen debris, and the waterproof plate 23 can guide the water in the expansion joint.

[0025] In a specific embodiment, the mounting plate 1 is a rubber plate, which can buffer the load generated by the vehicle to a certain extent.

[0026] The working process of the utility model: when in use, the limiting slider 17 is located in the limiting slide groove 15 under the action of the compression spring 18, and can limit the vertical direction of the second comb plate 4, so as to ensure that the relative position of the first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4 will not be misaligned, and the overall structure will be more stable without interfering with their relative movement. When the vehicle passes, the vehicle will generate a load on the first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4, and will apply pressure to the mounting plate 1 during the downward transmission process. When the pressure is transmitted to the mounting plate 1, the first comb plate 3 and the second comb plate 4 will generate pressure on the pressure plate 8, thereby pushing the first slide plate 6 to slide downward. Due to the presence of the hydraulic oil 14, the mounting plate 1 will not undergo a large displacement under the action of the instantaneous load, thereby preventing it from being damaged. After the buffering is completed, the second slide plate 11 slides back under the action of the reset spring 13, thereby moving the first slide plate 6 to the initial position. The hydraulic oil 14 can avoid the phenomenon of large displacement when only the spring is used, and the spring often bears instantaneous pressure and rebounds quickly, which is easy to fatigue itself, and is easy to cause certain damage to the mounting plate 1 and the bridge structure.
