As bridges are expanded, the relocation of power pipelines attached to bridges has become a major challenge. Relocating power pipelines inevitably leads to project delays and increased costs, especially in urban power pipeline relocation, which is complex and has a significant social impact. How to prevent the relocation and rerouting of power and information pipelines attached to bridges during construction, protecting them in situ and ensuring their safe operation, remains a major technical challenge in urban bridge expansion projects. Furthermore, vibrations between the new bridge and the existing one significantly impact cable pipelines, making seismic protection a significant technical challenge during pipeline relocation.

The seismic protection device suitable for bridge expansion pipelines includes a hanger, which is an inverted gate-shaped structure. One end of the hanger is fixedly mounted on the horizontal wall of the L-shaped groove at the bottom of the original bridge, and the other end of the hanger is fixedly mounted on the horizontal wall of the L-shaped groove at the bottom of the expanded bridge. A cable tray for placing cables is installed above the bottom of the hanger, and horizontal seismic rods are connected and fixed on both sides of the hanger through seismic connectors. The horizontal seismic rods are fixed to the vertical walls of the L-shaped grooves at the bottom of the original bridge and the expanded bridge through seismic connectors. Two vertical seismic rods are connected and fixed above the bottom of the hanger through seismic connectors. The vertical seismic rods are fixed to the horizontal walls of the L-shaped grooves at the bottom of the original bridge and the expanded bridge through seismic connectors, and the vertical seismic rods are distributed at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the hanger in the vertical direction.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] The following is a detailed introduction to the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings: Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model includes a hanger 1, which is an inverted gate-shaped structure. One end of the hanger 1 is fixedly mounted on the horizontal wall 31 of the L-shaped groove 3 at the bottom of the original bridge 2, and the other end of the hanger 1 is fixedly mounted on the horizontal wall 31 of the L-shaped groove 3 at the bottom of the expanded bridge 4. A cable tray 5 for placing cables is installed above the bottom of the hanger 1. Both sides of the hanger 1 are connected and fixed with transverse anti-seismic rods 7 through anti-seismic connectors 6. The transverse anti-seismic rods 7 are fixed to the vertical ends of the L-shaped grooves 3 at the bottom of the original bridge 2 and the expanded bridge 4 through the anti-seismic connectors 6. On the wall 32, two vertical seismic rods 8 are connected and fixed above the bottom of the hanger 1 through seismic connectors 6. The vertical seismic rods 8 are fixed to the transverse wall 31 of the L-shaped groove 3 at the bottom of the original bridge 2 and the expanded bridge 4 through the seismic connectors 6, and the vertical seismic rods 8 are distributed at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the hanger 1 in the vertical direction. This makes the lifting force of the vertical seismic rods 8 in the vertical direction of the hanger 1 uniform, so that when resisting the vertical vibration of the original bridge 2 and the expanded bridge 4, the seismic force is more uniform, reducing the vibration of the pipeline.
[0016] Hanger 1 includes a bottom support rod 11 and two vertical hangers 12. One end of each vertical hanger 12 is fixed to the ends of the bottom support rod 11 via corner reinforcements 9. The other end of each vertical hanger 12 is mounted with a base 10. The base 10 is fixed to the transverse wall 31 of the L-shaped groove 3 at the bottom of the original bridge 2 and the expanded bridge 4 via expansion bolts. Bolt mounting holes are provided at both ends of the vertical hangers 12.
[0017] One end of the two transverse anti-seismic rods 7 is fixed to the bottom of each side of the hanger 1 via anti-seismic connectors 6. The anti-seismic connectors 6 on the other ends of the two transverse anti-seismic rods 7 are fixed to the vertical walls 32 of the L-shaped grooves 3 at the bottom of the original bridge 2 and the expanded bridge 4 via expansion bolts. The transverse anti-seismic rods 7 are arranged at an angle to the side edges of the hanger 1. Bolt mounting holes are provided at both ends of the transverse anti-seismic rods 7.
[0018] One end of the two vertical seismic rods 8 is located on both sides of the cable tray 5. The reason for this distribution is that the bottom support rod 11 connected to the vertical seismic rod 8 is made of channel steel. Considering that the strength of the wing plate connected to the bottom support rod 11 is not enough, it is connected to the web of the bottom support rod 11, which makes the strength better; the seismic connector 6 on the other end of the two vertical seismic rods 8 is fixed to the horizontal wall 31 of the L-shaped groove 3 at the bottom of the original bridge 2 and the expanded bridge 4 by expansion bolts.
[0019] The two sides of the cable tray 5 are fixed to the bottom of the hanger 1 by limiting fasteners 51.
[0020] The vertical suspension rod 12, the bottom support rod 11, the transverse anti-seismic rod 7 and the vertical anti-seismic rod 8 are all made of channel steel.
[0021] The connection between the above-mentioned seismic connectors 6 and the horizontal seismic rods 7, vertical seismic rods 8, etc. to which they are connected is a hinged connection. This can reduce the impact on the cables during vibration between the original bridge 2 and the expanded bridge 4, thereby increasing the protection of the cables. The seismic connectors 6 and the expansion bolts are fixedly connected.
[0022] The installation steps of this utility model are:
[0023] Step 1: Determine the width of the two vertical hangers 12 based on calculations, and thus the corresponding expansion bolt positions. Also determine the fixed positions of the vertical and horizontal anti-seismic rods 8 and 7. Once all expansion bolt positions are determined, stake out the holes. Drill holes using an impact drill according to the staked-out positions, and then install the expansion bolts. Expansion bolts are selected based on calculations, and the quality of their construction is crucial. Accurate positioning and secure installation are essential to ensure the full seismic performance of the pipeline seismic protection device.
[0024] After step 2 and step 1 are completed, the base 10 and the seismic connector 6 are installed by bolts.
[0025] After step 3 and step 2 are completed, the vertical hanger 12, the vertical anti-seismic rod 8, and the horizontal anti-seismic rod 7 are installed by bolts.
[0026] After steps 4 and 3 are completed, the bottom support rod 11 is installed, and both ends of the bottom support rod 11 are fixed to the vertical suspension rod 12 through the corner reinforcement 9 .
[0027] After steps 5 and 4 are completed, install the vertical and horizontal anti-seismic rods 8 and 7. One end of the vertical anti-seismic rod 8 is fixed to the bottom of the bridge deck via the anti-seismic connector 6, and the other end is fixed to the bottom support rod 11 via the anti-seismic connector 6. The vertical anti-seismic rod 8 is installed at a 45° angle to the vertical and requires corrosion protection. One end of the horizontal anti-seismic rod 7 is fixed to the side of the bridge deck via the anti-seismic connector 6, and the other end is fixed to the bottom support rod 11 via the anti-seismic connector 6. The horizontal anti-seismic rod 7 requires corrosion protection.
[0028] After step 6 and step 5 are completed, the limiting fasteners 51 are installed. The two ends of the bottom support rod 11 are fixed to the vertical hanger 12 through the corner reinforcements 9. The size of the limiting fasteners 51 is determined according to the size of the cable tray 5. The limiting fasteners 51 are installed on the bottom support rod 11 by bolts.
[0029] After step 7 and step 6 are completed, the cable tray 5 is installed and fixed to the bottom support rod 11 by means of a limiting fastener 51. The specification of the cable tray 5 is selected according to the number of cables.
[0030] The above are only specific embodiments of the present application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included in the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
