Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of bridge construction equipment, and particularly relates to a tower top hanging bracket for a curved cable tower. Background Art
[0002] During the construction of a cable-stayed bridge, it is necessary to build a tower top hanging bracket at the top of the cable tower for hoisting the stay cables. On the one hand, it ensures that the stay cables can reach the designated positions of the cable tower for installation, and on the other hand, it requires the tower top hanging bracket to correctly tension the stay cables so that the stay cables can support the bridge deck structure. The traditional conventional tower top hanging bracket needs to be equipped with components such as motors and slide rails to move the hanging points of the pulley block, resulting in a relatively heavy self-weight of the tower top hanging bracket; and the current tower top hanging brackets are only applicable to cable towers with relatively regular structures. Nowadays, the cable tower structures are gradually evolving into special-shaped structures considering the aesthetic appearance, and the conventional tower top hanging brackets are difficult to adapt to special-shaped cable towers that bend inward or outward.
[0003] Therefore, in view of the above deficiencies, it is necessary to provide a tower top hanging bracket for a curved cable tower. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a tower top hanging bracket for a curved cable tower, thereby solving the problem that the existing tower top hanging brackets cannot be applied to special-shaped cable towers.
[0005] The utility model is realized as follows:

The four truss tie rods enclose a rectangle with an intersection in the middle, and a connecting steel plate is used to weld and fix the intersection of every two truss tie rods and the steel pipe column together. The size of the rectangle enclosed by the truss tie rods is the same as the size of the rectangle enclosed by the four steel pipe columns; at the same time, two truss tie rods are arranged in a cross shape between every two adjacent steel pipe columns in the longitudinal bridge direction of each group, and a connecting steel plate is also used to weld and fix the intersection of each truss tie rod and the intersection of each truss tie rod and the steel pipe column.
[0008] At the top of each pair of longitudinally adjacent steel pipe columns, a main truss is welded.

A lower cross bar is provided in the longitudinal bridge direction of the turning small gantry, and the bottom ends of both ends of the lower cross bar are respectively fixedly connected to one end of the lower chords of the two main trusses. Two columns are welded at both ends of the lower cross bar, and an upper cross bar is welded above the two columns. Two diagonal braces are welded at the top ends of the two columns of the turning small gantry, and the bottom ends of the diagonal braces are perpendicularly welded to the diagonal bars of the main truss to ensure the structural strength of the lifting turning small gantry.
[0012] A plurality of hanging points are evenly spaced on the lower cross bar of the turning small gantry. A steel hanging rope for the lower cross bar is hung at one of the plurality of hanging points on the lower cross bar of the turning small gantry.

By driving the winch, the steel cable is steered by the third pulley block to drive the second pulley block to move up and down, and a hook is provided below the second pulley block to hoist the stay cable and other components.
[0013] As a further description of the present invention, preferably, the outer diameter of the base is larger than the outer diameter of the steel pipe column to increase the contact area between the base and the tower body. The bottom end surface of the base is an inclined surface, and the inclined surface at the bottom of the base contacts the inclined surface of the tower body.
[0014] As a further description of the present utility model, preferably, four embedded parts are fixedly connected to the top surface of each tower body.

[0017] The present utility model has the following advantages:
[0018] 1. By designing a turning small gantry with adjustable position, the steel hanging rope on the upper crossbar of the turning small gantry is sleeved at any position on the upper crossbar, and multiple hanging points are evenly arranged on the lower crossbar. According to the installation position of the stay cable, the vertical position of the steel hanging rope on the upper crossbar of the turning small gantry and the steel hanging rope on the lower crossbar at the hanging point of the lower crossbar are adjusted, so that the third pulley block and the second pulley block have a position deviation, thereby realizing convenient transposition, without disassembling, reconstructing the entire hanger, and arranging multiple groups of hangers to increase the construction volume and the burden on the cable tower;
[0019] 2. There is no need to additionally install power such as motors and sliding components such as sliders and slide rails to move the hanging point position. While saving the design cost and construction cost of the hanger, it also avoids the hanger bearing too much weight and affecting its bearing capacity, killing two birds with one stone;
[0020] 3. By arranging the embedded parts, the connection strength between the steel pipe column and the tower body can be improved. At the same time, the special-shaped structure of the base keeps the steel pipe column vertical, improves the load-bearing capacity, and can effectively hoist components such as stay cables;
[0021] 4. Setting the diagonal bars is beneficial to improving the load-bearing and bending resistance ability of the main truss, thereby improving the structural strength of the hanger and avoiding deformation of the main truss when hoisting the stay cable;
[0022] 5. The inclined surface at the bottom of the base contacts the inclined surface of the tower body, further increasing the contact area and avoiding the appearance of contact gaps that affect the load-bearing capacity of the steel pipe column.
[0023] The present utility model can be adapted to hoist stay cables on special-shaped cable towers. Description of the Drawings
