[0038] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] This embodiment provides a steering cast steel node, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, it includes a connecting elbow 1, a clamping structure 3 and a support structure 4.

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the connecting elbow 1 is bent and has a turning area. The connecting elbow 1 includes a first installation pipe 11 and a second installation pipe 12, which are connected together at an obtuse angle. A first installation channel 111 is defined within the first installation pipe 11, and a second installation channel 121 is defined within the second installation pipe 12. The first installation channel 111 and the second installation channel 121 have the same inner diameter, and the first installation channel 111 and the second installation channel 121 are connected to form an insertion channel for installing the steel strand 2. The extension line of the axis of the first installation channel 111 intersects the extension line of the axis of the second installation channel 121.

[0042] like Figure 2As shown, the support structure 4 includes a first conversion support 41 and a second conversion support 42. The first conversion support 41 is annular and is mounted on the inner wall of the first mounting pipe 11. The axis of the first conversion support 41 coincides with the axis of the first mounting channel 111. The second conversion support 42 is also annular and is mounted on the inner wall of the second mounting pipe 12. The central axis of the second conversion support 42 coincides with the axis of the second mounting channel 121. With the axis of the second mounting channel 121 as the center, an annular mounting groove is provided on the inner side of the second conversion support 42, near one end of the first conversion support 41. The inner diameter of the first conversion support 41 is larger than the inner diameter of the second conversion support 42, and the inner diameter of the first conversion support 41 is larger than the inner diameter of the mounting groove.

[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, the clamping structure 3 includes a first clamp 31 and a second clamp 32. The first clamp 31 and the second clamp 32 are both annular members. The first clamp 31 and the second clamp 32 are mounted along the installation direction and welded to the steel strand 2. For example, in this embodiment, the installation direction is from top to bottom, so the first clamp 31 is installed at the top and the second clamp 32 is installed at the bottom. The outer diameter of the first clamp 31 is larger than the inner diameter of the first conversion base 41 and smaller than the inner diameter of the first installation channel 111. The outer diameter of the second clamp 32 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first conversion base 41, larger than the inner diameter of the second conversion base 42, and smaller than the inner diameter of the installation slot. Before the first clamp 31 and the second clamp 32 are welded to the steel strand 2, they can be fixed in place using connecting wires 33. Specifically, multiple connecting wires 33 are used, with the upper ends of the connecting wires 33 passing through the first clamp 31 and fixed thereto, and the lower ends of the connecting wires 33 passing through the second clamp 32 and fixed thereto. The fixing can be achieved by welding. Through the above-mentioned arrangement, on the one hand, the clamping structure 3 can be pre-assembled according to the position and shape of the base structure 4, and can be directly installed on the appropriate position of the steel strand 2 to improve construction efficiency. On the other hand, through-welding fixation can prevent the connecting wire 33 from touching the steel strand 2 or the inner wall of the connecting elbow 1 during the installation process, causing scratches and damage.

[0044] When the steel strand 2 needs to be installed into the insertion channel, first fix the first clip 31 and the second clip 32 through the connecting wire 33, and put them on the steel strand 2, and fix the first clip 31 and the second clip 32 to the steel strand 2 by welding; then, continue to insert the steel strand 2 into the insertion channel along the installation direction, and the steel strand 2 enters the insertion channel together with the first clip 31 and the second clip 32; the second clip 32 moves in the first installation channel 111, passes through the inner hole of the first conversion base 41, and enters the second installation channel 121. As it continues to extend, the second clip 32 will be locked in the installation groove, and at this time the first clip 31 will abut the surface of the first conversion base 41. The displacement control of the second clip 32 along the axial direction and radial direction of the second installation channel 121 is achieved through the second clip 32 and the second conversion base 42; the size of the first clip 31 is relatively large, and when the steel strand 2 passes through the two clips from top to bottom, two turns are achieved, that is, after the installation is completed, the displacement deviation between the first clip 31 and the second clip 32 causes the steel strand 2 to have a first turning angle; the second conversion base 42 is inclined, and the second clip 32 is inclined and clamped on the second conversion base 42, causing the steel strand 2 to have a second turning angle, and the sum of the two turning angles is the designed turning angle between the first installation pipe 11 and the second installation pipe 12.

[0045] Through the above structure, the inner diameters of the first conversion platform 41 and the second conversion platform 42 are designed, so that the installation of the first clip 31 and the second clip 32 on the prestressed steel strand 2 is quick and convenient. The design of the upper and lower platforms and the two clips avoids the situation where the prestressed steel strand 2 is damaged due to excessive turning angle at one time; the second conversion platform 42 is designed in a stepped two-stage manner by providing an installation groove, which achieves good limiting of the second clip 32. It also ensures that there is an installation gap between the steel strand 2 and the inner wall of the insertion channel to prevent friction between the steel strand 2 and the inner wall of the insertion channel from causing wear on the surface coating of the steel strand 2, thereby improving the durability of the steel strand 2.

[0046] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the first installation pipe 11, the second installation pipe 12 and the base structure 4 are integrally formed of cast steel, with high dimensional control accuracy, no deformation caused by welding, and guaranteed structural strength; there are no welds inside the nodes, which reduces fatigue at the nodes.

[0047] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the upper and lower ends of the connecting elbow 1 also need to be welded to the adjacent steel pipes. The upper and lower ends of the connecting elbow 1 are provided with assembly parts 13. The assembly part 13 increases the pipe wall thickness by slope, ensuring that its thickness is greater than the thickness of the connecting elbow 1. It can be applied to adjacent steel pipes of different thicknesses, realizes effective welding with adjacent steel pipes of different thicknesses, and improves the standardization of the nodes.

[0048] Example 2

[0049] This embodiment provides a lattice-type wind turbine tower, such as Figure 1 As shown, the lattice wind turbine tower in Example 2 includes an external pipe 5 and the steering cast steel node in Example 1. Adjacent pipes are welded to both ends of the steering cast steel node. The adjacent pipes and the steering cast steel node form an inner tube, and the external pipe 5 is sleeved outside the inner tube. The gaps between the external pipe 5 and the steering cast steel node, as well as between the external pipe 5 and the adjacent pipes at both ends of the steering cast steel node, are filled with concrete filler 6. The lattice wind turbine tower in Example 2 includes the steering cast steel node in Example 1, and thus has all of its benefits.

[0050] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above descriptions are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
