Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of bridge safety detection, in particular to a portable hanging ladder for inspecting bridge supports. Background Art
[0002] As a key supporting component in a bridge structure, bridge bearings play a vital role in connecting the upper and lower structures. Their primary function is to bear the entire load from the upper bridge structure and, through the bearing structure, transfer these loads to the lower pier structure, ultimately distributing them to the foundation. This transfer process ensures the overall stability and safety of the bridge and is the cornerstone of its proper operation. During bridge design and construction, the strength, stiffness, and overall stability of the foundation and substructure are given paramount importance. These factors not only impact the durability of the bridge but are also crucial for ensuring its safe operation despite natural factors such as extreme weather and changing geological conditions. However, the importance of bridge bearings, as the force transmission and connection device connecting the upper and lower structures, is equally crucial. The bearing system must not only withstand static loads but also accommodate displacements caused by various factors, such as live loads, temperature fluctuations, concrete shrinkage, and creep, ensuring that the actual loads on the bridge are consistent with structural calculations, thereby extending the bridge's service life.
[0003] Generally speaking, the design life of a bridge is as long as 100 to 120 years, which means that bridge bearings need to function continuously and stably over this long period of time. However, in actual operation, bridge bearing systems often face many challenges. On the one hand, the bearing systems at the bottom of the bridge span structure and the piers may experience performance degradation due to factors such as material aging and fatigue accumulation during long-term use. On the other hand, natural disasters such as earthquakes and long-term structural shifts, or human factors, may also damage the bearing systems, thereby affecting their normal working condition. When it is necessary to inspect, test, or arrange inspection points for the bottom of the bridge span structure and the pier bearing systems, many difficulties are often encountered, especially when inspecting and testing the bearing systems. Due to space constraints, it is difficult for inspectors to access the areas, which increases the difficulty and risk of inspection. Utility Model Content
