Description
Technical Field

[0002] With the large-scale construction of infrastructure and transportation projects in Northwest my country, most concrete structures undergoing construction are stored in dry environments with large temperature differences. Due to these conditions, bridge concrete is prone to moisture loss during curing, and curing temperatures fluctuate significantly. These changes in humidity and temperature have an extremely negative impact on the performance of concrete. Currently, conventional watering is the primary method of curing bridge concrete. For concrete pier structures in dry environments, the combination of dry conditions and the verticality of the structure causes moisture loss, necessitating repeated watering, resulting in high water consumption. Furthermore, the curing temperature is also adversely affected by the large temperature difference. These factors negatively impact the performance of concrete, reducing the durability of concrete pier structures. Since piers are crucial structures for transmitting loads, deterioration in their performance will reduce the usability and safety of the entire bridge project. Utility Model Content

The inner maintenance film layer 14 is covered on the outer surface of the bridge pier. A heating pipe 10 is provided in the heating cavity 9. The heating pipe 10 is connected with an internal connecting line 17. The same heating cavity 9, basic thermal insulation layer 11 and outer maintenance film layer 12 are provided at positions corresponding to the maintenance protection cover 1 in the protective top cover 5. A water adding structure and a temperature and humidity sensor 20 are provided in the protective top cover 5.

The lower part of the water injection pipe 15 is connected to the water distribution pipe 16 of the annular structure. The water distribution pipe 16 is arranged directly above the aquifer 13. The lower part of the water distribution pipe 16 is provided with multiple drainage holes for replenishing water into the aquifer 13.
[0021] The heating tube 10 in the protective top cover 5 is connected to the heating tube 10 in the maintenance protective cover 1 through an internal connecting line 17 and a plug-in connection terminal 18. The provision of the plug-in connection terminal 18 can realize quick connection and installation.
[0022] The internal connecting wire 17 in the protective top cover 5 is extended to the outside to be provided with an external connecting wire 19 for connecting to an external power supply. The detection head of the temperature and humidity sensor 20 installed on the protective top cover 5 extends into the outer curing film layer 12.
[0023] The lower end of the maintenance protective cover 1 is integrally provided with a supporting chassis 2 for improving the installation stability of the maintenance protective cover 1. The top of the maintenance protective cover 1 is integrally provided with a connecting top plate 3. The lower end of the protective top cover 5 is provided with a top cover connecting plate 4.

Sealing gaskets are provided on the joint surfaces of the two connecting sides 6 to ensure the overall sealing of the maintenance protective cover 1 and the protective top cover 5.
[0025] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: watering the outer surface of the bridge pier can not only flush away the debris on the surface to achieve the cleaning effect, but also replenish the water inside the bridge pier, and then the inner curing membrane layer 14 is coated on the outside of the bridge pier, and the inner curing membrane layer 14 and the outer curing membrane layer 12 are both water energy curing membranes, and the overlap width of the membrane at the interface position of the inner curing membrane layer 14 is not less than 50mm to prevent water loss and improve the moisturizing effect. The water-saving and moisturizing curing membrane is based on a polymer absorption material and can absorb more than 200 times its own weight in water. During the degradation process, the polymer material transfers water to the concrete curing surface through capillary action, and at the same time absorbs evaporated water during the concrete hydration process, and then acts on the concrete surface to form a circulating moisturizing system, thereby improving the curing effect and improving the quality and durability of the concrete.
[0026] Afterwards, the maintenance and protection cover 1 is installed on the outside of the bridge pier. The connecting side edges 6 of the maintenance and protection cover 1 are fixedly connected by connecting bolts 7 and nuts.

A sealing gasket is provided on the joint surface of the connecting side edges 6. A sealing ring is provided on the joint surface of the top cover connecting plate 4 and the connecting top plate 3 to ensure the overall sealing of the maintenance and protection cover 1 and the protective top cover 5. Water is added to the aquifer 13 through the water inlet 8 to ensure that it can meet the maintenance and use requirements.
[0027] The western arid region has strong winds and sandstorms, so a wind power generation device can be installed next to the device to power the heating tube 10, temperature and humidity sensor 20 and other electrical components. The device is equipped with an external control box for automatically monitoring and controlling the working conditions of the heating tube 10. This is a commonly used existing technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0028] The maintenance shield and protective cover are provided with different sizes and specifications, which are adapted to the sizes and specifications of the bridge piers under actual construction. The heating components in the heating cavity 9 can be selectively used according to the changes in the construction environment.
[0029] The utility model is provided with a maintenance protection cover 1 and a protection top cover 5 on the outside of the bridge pier, which can provide all-round protection for the concrete-cast bridge pier. A layer of water energy maintenance film is applied on the surface of the bridge pier, and an aquifer 13, a basic insulation layer 11 and a heating cavity 9 are provided on the outside to provide a good temperature and humidity environment for the concrete bridge pier. A water inlet 8 is provided on the protection top cover 5, which supplies water to the water-absorbing material in the aquifer 13 through a pipeline to meet the use needs in arid areas.
