[0032] Please refer to Figure 4-Figure 7 , this embodiment provides a mid-span bifurcated beam, comprising:

[0033] The trunk part includes two trunk beams 101 arranged along the same axis, and one end of the two trunk beams 101 is respectively connected to the main structure;

[0034] The bifurcated portion is located between the two main beams 101, and the bifurcated portion includes two branch beams 102, two connecting beams 103 and at least one inter-branch beam 104. The two branch beams 102 are arranged along an axial spacing parallel to the main beams 101, and the two ends of the two branch beams 102 are respectively connected by two connecting beams 103 to enclose a hollow area. At least one inter-branch beam 104 is movably erected between the two branch beams 102 to divide the hollow area into at least two openings 105. The other ends of the two main beams 101 are respectively connected to the two connecting beams 103.

[0035] By designing a bifurcation in the span of the trunk part, at least two openings 105 are separated by the cross beam 104 between the branches, which can improve the utilization rate of the steel beam, reduce the amount of steel used, and be more economical. In addition, the cross beam 104 between the branches is a movable design, which can separate openings 105 of different sizes according to the requirements of pipeline layout, and has a wider applicability.

[0036] Specifically, in this embodiment, the trunk part is divided into two parts, namely, two trunk beams 101 arranged along the same axis, one end of the two trunk beams 101 are respectively connected to the main structure (such as frame beams), and the other ends of the two trunk beams 101 are respectively connected to two connecting beams 103.

[0037] In this embodiment, two branch beams 102 are distributed on both sides of the axis of the main beam 10110 along the axial direction parallel to the main beam 101. Preferably, the two branch beams 102 are symmetrically distributed along the axis of the main beam 101. Of course, in other embodiments, the two branch beams 102 may not be symmetrically distributed along the axis of the main beam 10110. Those skilled in the art may configure the distribution of the branch beams 102 and the corresponding parameters according to actual conditions, and the present invention does not limit this.

[0038] The two ends of the two branch beams 102 are respectively connected by two connecting beams 103 to enclose a hollow area. In this embodiment, the connecting beam 103 is vertically connected to the branch beam 102, and the hollow area is rectangular. Of course, in other embodiments, if the connecting beam 103 is not vertically connected to the branch beam 102, the hollow area can be other shapes, such as a trapezoid.

[0039] Preferably, the main beam 101 is perpendicular to the connecting beam 103, and the inter-branch beam 104 is parallel to the connecting beam 103. It should be noted that in other embodiments, the inter-branch beam 104 may also be at a certain angle to the connecting beam 103. Without affecting the stress of the overall component, those skilled in the art may configure the position of the inter-branch beam 104 according to actual conditions, and the present utility model does not limit this.

[0040] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the hole 105 is a square. It should be noted that the cross-sectional shape of the hole 105 can also be other shapes. Those skilled in the art can configure the cross-sectional shape of the hole 105 according to the layout requirements of the pipeline, and the utility model does not limit this.

[0041] At least one inter-branch crossbeam 104 is movably mounted between two branch beams 102 to divide the hollow area into at least two openings 105. In a preferred embodiment, the branch beam 102 is provided with at least two node plate groups along the axial direction, each node plate group includes two node plates 106 arranged on two branch beams 102 opposite to each other, and the two ends of the inter-branch crossbeam 104 are detachably connected to the two node plates 106 of the same node plate group. The detachable connection method is, for example, a fastening connection, such as correspondingly opening connection holes (plain holes or threaded holes) on the node plates 106 and the inter-branch crossbeam 104, and then locking and fixing them with fasteners such as bolts and nuts.

[0042] In this embodiment, there is one cross beam 104 between branches and three node plate groups, but the present invention does not limit this and can be adjusted according to needs.

[0043] Of course, in addition to setting the node plate 106, it is also possible to consider directly opening holes in the branch beam 102 and the inter-branch cross beam 104, and then fastening them together, and the position of the inter-branch cross beam 104 can also be adjusted, and the present invention does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0044] Preferably, the branch beam 102 has a web, the web of the branch beam 102 has a first side and a second side opposite to each other, the node plate 106 is arranged on the first side, and a first stiffening rib 107 is arranged at a position corresponding to the node plate 106 on the second side, and the first stiffening rib 107 is perpendicular to the plane where the trunk beam 101 and the connecting cross beam 103 are located. The first stiffening rib 107 is arranged to locally strengthen the connection between the branch beam 102 and the node plate 106.

[0045] Preferably, a wing-shaped stiffening plate 108 is provided at the connection between the main beam 101 and the connecting beam 103, and the extension direction of the wing-shaped stiffening plate 108 is parallel to the plane where the main beam 101 and the connecting beam 103 are located. The provision of the wing-shaped stiffening plate 108 improves the strength and rigidity of the connection between the main beam 101 and the connecting beam 103.

[0046] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the wing-shaped stiffening plate 108 is a triangle. Of course, in some other embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the stiffening plate may also be other shapes, such as a fan shape, etc., and the utility model does not limit this. In other embodiments, if the load is small, the flange strength and stiffness of the main beam 101 and the branch beam 102 meet the requirements, the wing-shaped stiffening plate 108 may also be removed, and those skilled in the art may configure the stiffening plate according to actual conditions.

[0047] Furthermore, the wing-shaped stiffening plate 108 gradually narrows in the direction away from the connecting beam 103. Such a configuration allows the wing-shaped stiffening plate 108 to better fit the size of the main beam 101 and the connecting beam 103, and gradually transitions the stiffness of the connection between the main beam 101 and the connecting beam 103, so as not to produce a sudden stress change, and also saves the amount of material required to make the wing-shaped stiffening plate 108.

[0048] Preferably, a second stiffening rib 109 is provided at the connection between the connecting crossbeam 103 and the main beam 101, and a third stiffening rib 110 is provided at the connection between the connecting crossbeam 103 and the branch beam 102, and the second stiffening rib 109 and the third stiffening rib 110 are perpendicular to the plane where the main beam 101 and the connecting crossbeam 103 are located. It should be noted that the second stiffening rib 109 and the third stiffening rib 110 are both transverse stiffening ribs, which can avoid the instability of the web of the main beam 101 and / or the web of the connecting crossbeam 103 caused by local stress.

[0049] Furthermore, the connecting cross beam 103 has a web, and the two opposite sides of the web are respectively a first side and a second side; the first side of the web is connected to the main beam 101, and the second stiffening rib 109 is located at the position of the second side of the web corresponding to the main beam 101; the second side of the web is connected to the branch beam 102, and the third stiffening rib 110 is located at the position of the first side of the web corresponding to the branch beam 102. It should be noted that the second stiffening rib 109 is connected to the web and flange of the main beam 101 by welding, and the third stiffening rib 110 is connected to the web of the connecting cross beam 103 by welding. Of course, in some other embodiments, the stiffening rib and the beam can also be connected by other connection methods, not necessarily welding. Those skilled in the art can configure it according to actual needs, and the present utility model is not limited to this.

[0050] Preferably, the connection between the main beam 101 and the connecting beam 103 and / or the branch beam 102 and the connecting beam 103 is by welding. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the various component beams of the mid-span bifurcated beam, except the inter-branch beam 104, such as the main beam 101, the branch beam 102, and the connecting beam 103, can be connected into a whole by welding. Of course, in some other embodiments, the connection between the various component beams of the steel beam is not necessarily by welding, but can be other methods. Those skilled in the art can configure the connection between the various component beams of the steel beam according to actual conditions, and this novel use does not limit this.

[0051] Preferably, the main beam 101, the connecting beam 103 and the inter-branch beam 104 each have a flange, and the flanges of the main beam 101, the connecting beam 103 and the inter-branch beam 104 are on the same plane. It should be noted that in the present embodiment, the main beam 101, the branch beam 102, the connecting beam 103 and the inter-branch beam 104 are all I-shaped steel beams. With such a configuration, the I-shaped steel beam can reduce the weight of the steel beam and further improve the problem of poor economy of the steel beam without affecting the bending resistance of the overall component. In some other embodiments, the main beam 101, the branch beam 102, the connecting beam 103 and the inter-branch beam 104 can also be beams of other forms. Those skilled in the art can configure the form of the beam according to actual conditions, and the present utility model does not limit this.

[0052] In summary, the embodiment of the utility model provides a mid-span bifurcated beam, which is bifurcated in the span of the trunk part and uses the inter-branch crossbeam 104 to separate at least two openings 105. Compared with the prior art, it can improve the utilization rate of steel beams, reduce the amount of steel used, and be more economical. In addition, the inter-branch crossbeam 104 is a movable design, which can separate openings 105 of different sizes according to the requirements of pipeline layout, and has a wider applicability.

[0053] In addition, it should be recognized that although the present invention has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment, the above embodiment is not intended to limit the present invention. For any technician familiar with the art, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention, the above disclosed technical content can be used to make many possible changes and modifications to the technical solution of the present invention, or modified into equivalent embodiments of equivalent changes.
