Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of building structures, and particularly relates to a steel box girder structure with a built-in sprinkler system. Background Art
[0002] During the early stage of a fire, the continuous steel box girder will experience a drastic internal force redistribution, with the negative moment area expanding rapidly and the mid-support reaction force increasing suddenly to more than twice that at normal temperature. At high temperatures, the mechanical properties of steel will be significantly reduced. Once the fire duration on the box girder is too long, the box girder structure is likely to be damaged. Therefore, applying fireproof coatings on the surface of the box girder can achieve the purpose of reducing the surface temperature, thereby delaying or avoiding structural damage. There are many methods to effectively suppress or avoid fires. The most commonly used measure is to apply fireproof coatings on the surface of the structure, and the diversion method such as spraying and cooling can also be used to control the temperature of the bridge.

[0038] Embodiment 3
[0039] Working principle: This device needs to install the various parts of the spray mechanism accordingly when manufacturing the steel box girder. Specifically, the water tank 3 with the control panel 5, the energy storage device 4, the water inlet pipe 31, the liquid level sensor 33 and the liquid pump 34 are welded to the outside of the cantilever arms 2 on both sides of the steel box girder, and then holes are opened on the cantilever arms 3, and the delivery pipe 6 with the electric temperature control valve 72 is placed into the steel box girder through the holes, and one end of the delivery pipe 6 is connected to the liquid outlet of the liquid pump 34, and then the water pipe clamps are welded on the side walls and the transverse stiffening ribs of the top inner wall of the inner cavity of the main beam 1 of the steel box girder, the main pipe 91 and the branch pipe 92 with the nozzle are clamped into the water inlet pipe clamp, and the main pipe 91 is connected to the other end of the delivery pipe 6 using a water pipe tee joint to complete the installation of the spray pipeline of the spray mechanism; then Then, a plurality of water collection holes 81 are opened between two adjacent transverse stiffening ribs at the bottom end of the main beam 1 of the steel box girder, and then equidistant holes are opened on the water collection pipe 92 according to the spacing of the water collection holes 91, and the connecting pipe 83 is welded to the hole opened on the water collection pipe 82, and then the connecting pipe 83 is passed through the water collection holes 81 in turn and welded, and the water collection holes 81, the connecting pipe 83 and the water collection pipe 82 are connected, and then a new hole is opened at the bottom end of the water collection pipe 82, and the drainage pipe 84 is welded in the new hole to complete the installation of the drainage mechanism, and then the temperature sensor 71 is installed inside the top plate of the negative bending moment area of the main beam 1; then the temperature sensor 71 and circuit components such as the electric temperature control valve 72 are electrically connected to the control panel 5; the installation of the entire spray mechanism can be completed.
[0040] When the temperature sensor 71 installed inside the top plate of the negative bending moment area of the main beam 1 detects that the temperature is higher than the temperature threshold preset by the control panel 5 (inside the storage module), the control panel 5 actively controls the electric temperature control valve 72 to open, and at the same time controls the liquid pump 34 to pump the water inside the water tank 3 to the spray pipe 9, spraying and cooling the inside of the steel box beam, thereby reducing the possibility of structural damage in the negative bending moment area and buying time for extinguishing the fire.
[0041] During the spraying process, when the liquid level sensor 33 detects that the liquid level inside the water tank 3 is higher than or lower than the detection threshold, the control panel 5 actively controls the solenoid valve 32 to open, and continuously replenishes water to the water tank 3 through the water inlet pipe 31 to ensure long-term spraying.
[0042] The control panel 5 on the water tank 3 is initially set by the staff to set the opening threshold of the solenoid valve 32, the opening threshold of the liquid pump 34 and the opening threshold of the electric temperature control valve 72, so that the control panel 5 can automatically control the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 32, the liquid pump 34 and the electric temperature control valve 72 when the monitoring value is greater than or equal to the threshold.
