DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The specific implementation of the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a bridge expansion joint device for a bridge includes a bridge body, in which a plurality of expansion joints 2 which are transparent from top to bottom and spaced apart from left to right are arranged. The arrangement of the plurality of expansion joints 2 on the bridge body can adapt to deformation of the bridge deck, extend the service life of the bridge, and improve driving safety.

[0026] An embedding groove 3 with an opening facing toward the bridge body is provided near the expansion joint 2, and two telescopic shells 4 arranged opposite to each other on the left and right are provided in the embedding groove 3. The telescopic shells 4 are placed in the embedding groove 3, and then the studs 12 and the bridge section 1 are connected to each other. The two telescopic shells 4 are plugged into each other for the displacement of the bridge body. When the bridge body moves, it will drive the two adjacent telescopic shells 4 to move in opposite directions, so that the two telescopic shells 4 are plugged into each other.

[0027] The telescopic shell 4 includes a connector 401 and a storage member 402. Since the storage member 402 includes a top plate and a trough body, the top plate and the trough body are detachably connected. When the adjustment mechanism 5 needs to be adjusted, the top plate can be removed for operation. When no operation is required, the top plate can be installed on the trough body. The connector 401 is fixed on the top of the storage member 402. Under the setting of the connector 401, the gap between the original bridge sections 1 can be covered, so that the overall stability is higher, and no special pre-embedded anchor steel bars are required, and the construction is convenient. The storage groove 8 is opened inside the storage member 402, and the bidirectional screw 501 is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the storage member 402.

[0028] A plurality of short rods 10 spaced front-to-back and extending in the left-to-right direction are fixedly provided on opposite sides of two adjacent connectors 401, and a groove 11 is formed between the two adjacent short rods 10. The short rods 10 on one connector 401 are inserted into the groove 11 of the adjacent connector 401. When the bridge section 1 moves, the short rods 10 on the corresponding connector 401 are driven to be inserted into the groove 11 of the adjacent connector 401, thereby enhancing the stability of the overall structure and also having higher strength and load-bearing capacity.

[0029] Two movable blocks 6 spaced apart from each other are provided between the two telescopic shells 4, and an elastic belt 7 (the elastic belt 7 is a rubber belt) is fixed between the two movable blocks 6. The elastic belt 7 is used to move the two movable blocks 6 in relative or opposite directions. Since the elastic belt 7 has good elasticity and aging resistance, it can rebound the displaced bridge section 1.

[0030] Under the action of the adjustment mechanism 5, the moving block 6 can be driven to move, so as to adjust the spacing of the expansion joint 2, so as to adapt to expansion joints 2 of different widths, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the overall stability of the bridge body. Specifically, each telescopic shell 4 is provided with an adjustment mechanism 5 that can drive the moving block 6 to move. The adjustment mechanism 5 is used to adjust the spacing between the two moving blocks 6 to adapt to expansion joints 2 of different widths. If the width of the expansion joint 2 is too small, it may not be able to meet the displacement requirements of the bridge section 1 under extreme weather conditions, resulting in increased structural stress and increased risk of cracking or damage; on the contrary, if the width of the expansion joint 2 is too large, although it can provide a larger displacement space, it may reduce the overall stability of the bridge section 1, especially in the case of severe vibrations such as earthquakes, and the appropriate width of the expansion joint 2 helps to maintain the integrity of the bridge section 1 and extend its service life.

[0031] The left and right sides of the elastic band 7 are fixed on the moving block 6 , and the elastic band 7 is located in the expansion joint 2 in an arc-shaped state.

[0032] A plurality of expansion joints 2 divide the bridge body into a plurality of bridge sections 1 spaced apart on the left and right. When two adjacent bridge sections 1 move, they are used to extrude or stretch the elastic band 7 to adapt to the deformation of the bridge section 1. When two adjacent bridge sections 1 contract, the elastic band 7 will be squeezed to play a buffering role.

[0033] The adjustment mechanism 5 includes a bidirectional lead screw 501 and a connecting plate 502 extending in the front-to-back direction. The two telescopic shells 4 are each provided with a receiving groove 8 with an opening facing opposite to each other. One of the bidirectional lead screws 501 is fixedly connected to a bevel gear set, and the bevel gear set is fixedly connected to a handle, so that turning the handle can drive the bevel gear set to rotate, and when the bevel gear set rotates, it can drive the bidirectional lead screw 501 to rotate.

[0034] The front and rear ends of the bidirectional lead screw 501 are rotatably arranged in the storage groove 8. Each bidirectional lead screw 501 is transmission-connected to two front and rear relatively arranged top closure components 9. The top closure components 9 are hingedly connected to the connecting plate 502, and the connecting plate 502 is fixedly connected to the moving block 6 to drive the moving block 6 to move left and right. When the bidirectional lead screw 501 rotates, it can drive the two top closure components 9 to move in relative or opposite directions. When the two top closure components 9 move in relative directions, the moving block 6 can be pushed out, and when the two top closure components 9 move in opposite directions, the moving block 6 can be retracted inward.

[0035] The top closing assembly 9 includes a transmission block 901 and a swing rod 902 . The transmission block 901 is sleeved on the bidirectional lead screw 501 and is threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 501 .

[0036] The swing rod 902 is rotatably arranged on the transmission block 901, and the swing rod 902 is hingedly connected to the connecting plate 502. When the bidirectional screw 501 rotates, it can drive the two transmission blocks 901 to move in relative or opposite directions, and during the movement, it can drive the swing rod 902 to rotate, so that the moving block 6 moves.

[0037] The telescopic shell 4 is provided with a plurality of through holes which are spaced front to back and transparent up and down. The top of the telescopic shell 4 is provided with a placement groove which opens upwards. The placement groove and the through hole are interconnected. When the nut 13 is screwed on the stud 12, it is in the groove, so that the nut 13 does not protrude from the bridge section 1, thereby avoiding the unevenness of the bridge surface. The embedding groove 3 is provided with a threaded hole which opens upwards. The stud 12 is inserted in the threaded hole, and the stud 12 passes through the through hole and is threadedly connected with the nut 13. The stud 12 passes through the through hole and is threadedly connected with the threaded hole, so that the telescopic shell 4 and the bridge section 1 are connected to each other through the stud 12. After passing through, the nut 13 is screwed on the stud 12.

[0038] Working principle: When in use, first dig out the embedding groove 3, then place the telescopic housing 4 in the embedding groove 3, and then connect the stud 12 and the bridge section 1 to each other. The stud 12 passes through the through hole and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole, so that the telescopic housing 4 and the bridge section 1 are connected to each other through the stud 12. After passing through, screw the nut 13 on the stud 12, open the top plate, and turn the handle to drive the bevel gear set to rotate. When the bevel gear set rotates, it can drive the bidirectional screw 501 to rotate. When the bidirectional screw 501 rotates, it can drive the two transmission blocks 901 to move in opposite or opposite directions, and during the movement During the adjustment process, the swing rod 902 can be driven to rotate, so that the moving block 6 is moved. After adjustment, the elastic band 7 is located in the expansion joint 2 between the two bridge sections 1. If the width of the expansion joint 2 is too small, it may not be able to meet the displacement requirements of the bridge section 1 under extreme weather conditions, resulting in increased structural stress and increased risk of cracking or damage. On the contrary, if the width of the expansion joint 2 is too large, although a larger displacement space can be provided, the overall stability of the bridge section 1 may be reduced, especially in the event of severe vibrations such as earthquakes. In addition, a suitable width of the expansion joint 2 helps to maintain the integrity of the bridge section 1 and extend its service life.

[0039] After the width of the expansion joint 2 is adjusted according to the bridge section 1, the top plate and the trough body are connected to each other. Then, with the setting of the connector 401, the gap between the original bridge sections 1 can be covered, so that the overall stability is higher, and no special pre-embedded anchor steel bars are required, which makes the construction convenient. Moreover, when the bridge section 1 moves, it will drive the short rod 10 on the corresponding connector 401 to be inserted into the groove 11 of the adjacent connector 401, so that the stability of the overall structure can be enhanced, and it also has higher strength and bearing capacity.
