[0002] Expansion joints, also known as temperature joints, are used to prevent cracks in buildings caused by climate change. These gaps are usually reserved at regular intervals along the length of the building, disconnecting the building from all above-ground components such as the roof, walls, and floors, allowing the building components to expand and contract horizontally freely.

[0003] Publication No. CN218911116U discloses a bridge expansion joint structure. By providing a support plate below the elastic body, the support plate supports the elastic body to prevent the elastic body from deforming downward or falling downward, thereby improving the stability of the elastic body positioning and the stability of the expansion joint structure. However, this patent still has the following problems in actual use:

[0004] Although this type of expansion joint structure for a bridge can prevent the elastomer from deforming downward or falling downward by setting a support plate to lift the elastomer, thereby improving the stability of the expansion joint structure, the expansion joint is relatively cumbersome during the installation process and requires welding and other technologies to fix the expansion joint, thereby reducing construction efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the implementation regulations described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] See also Figure 1-3 The utility model provides a technical solution: a quick-install expansion joint for a railway bridge, comprising a fixing mechanism 1 and a waterproof rubber strip 115 installed on the top of the fixing mechanism 1; the fixing mechanism 1 comprises a bridge body 101, a slot 102 is provided on the top of one end of the bridge body 101, and a pre-embedded reinforcement 103 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slot 102; a cross reinforcement 104 is fitted and connected to the top of the pre-embedded reinforcement 103, and a fixed steel bar 105 is fitted and connected to the side of the cross reinforcement 104 close to the pre-embedded reinforcement 103. By providing the cross reinforcement 104, the fixed steel bar 105 can be installed on the top of the pre-embedded reinforcement 103, thereby improving the stability of the reinforcing plate 106;

[0026] Both ends of the fixed steel bar 105 are fixedly connected to a reinforcing plate 106. The top of the reinforcing plate 106 is fitted with a first connecting column 107. A fixing block 108 is fixedly connected to one side of the first connecting column 107. The bottom of the fixing block 108 is slidably connected to the reinforcing plate 106. The provision of the fixing block 108 can prevent the first connecting column 107 from moving left and right on the surface of the reinforcing plate 106.

[0027] A groove 109 is formed inside the fixing block 108, and a protrusion 110 is slidably connected to the inside of the groove 109. One end of the protrusion 110 passes through the fixing block 108 and is engaged with the reinforcing plate 106. The other end of the protrusion 110 is fixedly connected to a spring 111. The provision of the spring 111 can ensure that the protrusion 110 is always engaged with the reinforcing plate 106 when no external force is applied, thereby improving the stability of the device.

[0028] One end of the spring 111 away from the protrusion 110 is fixedly connected to the groove 109. A sliding groove 112 is provided at the center of the protrusion 110. A cylinder 113 is slidably connected to the inside of the sliding groove 112. A push rod 114 is rotatably connected to the outside of one end of the cylinder 113. The outside of the push rod 114 is slidably connected to the fixed block 108. Pressing the push rod 114 drives the cylinder 113 to move downward in the sliding groove 112, which drives the protrusion 110 to move in the groove 109 toward the direction of the spring 111, so that the protrusion 110 can be retracted into the fixed block 108, and the fixed block 108 can be inserted into the reinforcing plate 106.

[0029] One side of the top of the first connecting column 107 is snap-connected with a waterproof rubber strip 115 , and the end of the waterproof rubber strip 115 away from the first connecting column 107 is snap-connected with a second connecting column 116 . The bottom structure of the second connecting column 116 is consistent with that of the first connecting column 107 .

[0030] Working principle: Before using this kind of rapid installation expansion joint for railway bridge, it is necessary to check the overall condition of the device to ensure that it can work normally. Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, first, grooves 102 are opened at the joints of the two bridge bodies 101, and then embedded reinforcement bars 103 are laid inside the bridge body 101. Crossing reinforcement bars 104 can be fixed to the tops of the embedded reinforcement bars 103 using iron wires. At the same time, the crossing reinforcement bars 104 and the fixing reinforcement bars 105 are twisted together using iron wires, so that the reinforcing plates 106 can be quickly fixed and installed.

[0031] Next, pressing the push rod 114 drives the cylinder 113 to move downward in the slide groove 112, thereby driving the protrusion 110 to move in the groove 109 in the direction of the spring 111, thereby retracting the protrusion 110 into the fixed block 108, and the fixed block 108 can be inserted into the reinforcing plate 106. Then, releasing the push rod 114, the restoring force of the spring 111 drives the protrusion 110 to return to its original position and engage with the reinforcing plate 106, and the first connecting column 107 and the second connecting column 116 can be installed on the surface of the reinforcing plate 106.

[0032] Finally, the waterproof rubber strip 115 is installed between the top of the first connecting column 107 and the top of the second connecting column 116, and then concrete is poured into the groove 102 to complete the installation of the expansion joint.

[0033] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
