AI Technical Summary
The waterproofing measures in the anchoring area of the existing cable-stay cable beam end cannot effectively prevent the loosening and aging of the silicone sealing strips and sealants, resulting in the inability to achieve a lasting waterproof effect, affecting the durability of the cable-stay cable and the safety of the bridge structure.
The combined structure of the general cap and special hoop member is adopted. Through high-strength bolt connection and double-flap welding of stainless steel structures, combined with materials with good corrosion resistance and high mechanical strength, a special hoop member with an annular structure is formed to ensure the close connection between the general cap and the cable-stayed cable body, and waterproof sealant is applied to the connection.
The tight connection between the general cap and the cable-stayed cable body is achieved, avoiding the emergence of gaps, ensuring long-lasting waterproofing effect, and improving the durability of the cable-stayed cable and the safety of the bridge structure.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a stay cable protection cover, belonging to the technical field of bridge protection. Background Art
[0002] Stay cables are the main load-bearing and force-transferring structural components of cable-stayed bridges, and their structural durability directly affects the safety and durability of cable-stayed bridges. The main factors affecting the structural durability of stay cables are the corrosion and fatigue of stay cables. The main way of stay cable corrosion is electrochemical corrosion, and water is a necessary condition for forming an electrolyte solution. Therefore, how to prevent water becomes the key to the anti-corrosion problem.
[0003] The anti-corrosion scope of stay cables includes the cable body, the anchor head, the joint part of the cable body and the anchor head, and the cable-stayed bridge tower, the beam-end anchorage area, etc. For the waterproof problem of the beam-end anchorage area of stay cables, domestic generally adopts the form of installing a "general's cap" and filling it with sealant or other foaming materials. The general's cap is made of cast iron parts or stainless steel thin plates by rolling and welding. One end is connected to the reserved steel sleeve at the beam end of the stay cable, and the other end is connected to the stay cable body.
[0004] Since the reserved steel sleeve at the beam end of the stay cable and the stay cable body cannot actually reach the ideal concentric state, during the installation of the general's cap, it is impossible to ensure the tight connection between the general's cap and the reserved steel sleeve and the two circular surfaces with different outer diameters of the cable body, so there will be gaps. Due to the vibration of the stay cable caused by external loads such as vehicles and wind, and natural erosion such as ultraviolet rays and rain, the silicone rubber sealing strip and sealant filled in the original gap will become loose and aged, and cannot play a lasting waterproof effect, seriously affecting the durability of the stay cable and the safety of the bridge structure. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a stay cable protection cover, and the technical solution is as follows.
[0006] The stay cable protection cover of the utility model includes a general's cap and a special hoop member; wherein, the general's cap is a hollow cylindrical structure with a smaller upper part and a larger lower part. The general's cap includes a lower barrel opening and an upper barrel opening, and a lower open ring opening and an upper open ring opening are respectively arranged at the positions of the lower barrel opening and the upper barrel opening; the outer wall surface of the general's cap is divided into two upper and lower sections, the upper section is a conical section, and the lower section is a cylindrical section; the special hoop member includes an upper buckle and a lower buckle, and the main body of the special hoop member is a ring structure; the special hoop member and the general's cap are connected together through the upper buckle and the lower buckle, so that the stay cable protection cover is reinforced on the stay cable body.
