Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of Bailey bridges, in particular to a Bailey pin for building Bailey bridges. Background Art

[0002] Bailey plates, also known as Bailey frames, Bailey beams, or trusses, were first invented by a British engineer during World War II to address the need for rapid bridge construction during the war. They are named after him. They can be used in highway bridges, assembling gantry cranes, guide beams, bridge erection machines, hanging baskets, and more. Bailey plates feature a simple structure, easy transportation, fast erection, high load capacity, good interchangeability, and strong adaptability.

[0003] During construction, Bailey bridges require fixed components to secure them and enhance their stability. Bailey pins are a key component in connecting the fixed components to the Bailey plates. However, existing Bailey pins are mostly made from ø50 round steel cut to the required length. The raw material is then clamped on a CNC lathe and repeatedly turned to the required dimensions. Finally, a drill press is used to drill holes in the required locations on the Bailey pins. After turning, the finished Bailey pins must be sent to a qualified external facility for quenching and blackening. This limited production of Bailey pins results in significant material waste, increasing production costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a Bailey pin for Bailey bridge construction, which has a simple and reasonable structure. The Bailey pin is punched by a punch press, and the raw material is directly punched into a mold to obtain a finished product. The finished product is then directly sent to an intermediate frequency furnace via a conveyor belt for quenching, blackening, and finally punching. This can greatly improve production efficiency, save production resources, and reduce production costs.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved in this way:

[0006] A bailey pin for building a bailey bridge, characterized in that the bailey pin is provided on two bailey plates, the bailey pin is used to connect the two bailey plates, the bailey pin has a cylindrical structure, the bailey pin is divided into a beret cap and a bailey pin body, the beret cap has a cylindrical structure, the beret cap is provided horizontally, the diameter of the beret cap is 55 mm, and the thickness of the beret cap is 8 mm;

[0007] The beret cap and the beret pin body are connected via a connecting block, wherein a first inwardly concave groove is provided in the connecting block, and the radius of the first groove is 2.5 mm;

[0008] The Bailey pin body is cylindrical and is arranged on the right side of the beret. The Bailey pin body is arranged horizontally and has a length of 184.5 mm. The middle end of the right side of the Bailey pin body is truncated cone-shaped, and the angle α formed between the middle end and the vertical line is 8°.

[0009] Furthermore, the length of the middle end of the right side of the Bailey pin body is 35 mm;

[0010] Furthermore, a through hole is provided on the middle end of the right side of the Bailey pin body, and the diameter of the through hole is 6 mm;

[0011] Furthermore, a second groove is provided on the left middle side surface of the beret, and the diameter of the second groove is 1 mm.

[0012] Furthermore, an elastic coating having anti-impact, anti-extrusion and elastic shock-absorbing functions is provided on the outer surface of the Bailey pin.

[0013] Production process:

[0014] The raw materials are now directly punched into shape in the mold to obtain finished products by punching, and then sent directly to the medium frequency furnace via a conveyor belt for quenching treatment, then blackening treatment, and finally punching to produce Bailey pin products.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0016] Compared with general Bailey pin products, this Bailey pin has the advantage of low material consumption, which can save production materials and reduce the consumption rate of production materials, thereby reducing the production cost of this Bailey pin product and allowing the company to obtain more profits.

[0017] This Bailey pin is produced using a punching process, where the raw material is directly stamped into a mold to form the finished product. This product is then conveyed via a conveyor belt directly into an intermediate frequency furnace for quenching, blackening, and finally punching, allowing for automated production. Conventional Bailey pins are typically cut from ø50 round steel to the required length. The raw material is then clamped on a CNC lathe and repeatedly turned to the required dimensions. Finally, a drill press is used to drill the holes in the desired locations. After lathing, the finished product is sent to an external processing facility for quenching and blackening. In comparison, this production process offers high efficiency and automation, enabling a continuous production of Bailey pins.

[0018] The upper surface of the Bailey pin is provided with an elastic coating, which can improve the overall seismic resistance, deformation resistance and corrosion resistance of the Bailey pin, thereby increasing the service life of the product and allowing the Bailey pin to connect the Bailey piece for a longer period of time.
