The outer side of the span plate is installed at the end of the first beam, and the outer side of the fixed plate is installed at the end of the second beam. It is characterized in that: the span plate is a hard plate, and the fixed plate is a flexible plate that is easily deformed after being subjected to force. The inner side of the span plate and the inner side of the fixed plate are connected and fixed to each other. In order to make the expansion device have a multi-directional displacement function, a multi-directional displacement hinge is installed at the bottom of the outer end of the span plate.
[0004] From its Figure 1 It can be seen that a mounting seat is provided at the end of the first beam, and the mounting seat has a groove with an open top. The lower part of the multi-directional movable hinge is placed in the groove of the mounting seat. The cross-seam plate and the mounting seat cooperate to limit the multi-directional movable hinge in the vertical direction. The cross-seam plate and the mounting seat are connected together by bolts and nuts. However, when a vehicle passes by, the bolts and nuts will be impacted by the vehicle load, and it is easy for the bolts to slip, causing the nuts to loosen and the cross-seam plate to loosen, thereby causing traffic accidents.

[0011] To constrain the movement of the pressure block, a slider is provided at the bottom of the movable pressure block, and a chute is provided on the lower support seat for the slider to slide in. The slider is vertically constrained in the chute. The combination of the slider and the chute not only guides the movement of the pressure block, but also constrains the slider vertically.

[0028] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the bridge expansion device of this preferred embodiment includes a first beam body 1, a second beam body 2, a span plate 3 and a fixed plate 4. A mounting slot 11 is opened at the beam end of the first beam body 1, the outer side of the fixed plate 4 is fixedly mounted on the second beam body 2, the inner side of the fixed plate 4 cooperates with the inner side of the span plate 3, the outer side of the span plate 3 is provided with a multi-directional displacement hinge 30, and a mounting seat for installing the multi-directional displacement hinge 30 is provided in the mounting slot 11 of the first beam body 1.
[0031] The side of the first beam body 1 close to the second beam body 2 is the inner side, and the side away from the second beam body 2 is the outer side. Similarly, the side of the second beam body 2 close to the first beam body 1 is the inner side, and the side away from the first beam body 1 is the outer side.
[0032] The cross-seam plate 3 and the fixing plate 4 can adopt the matching method in the background art, or can adopt the existing comb plate matching method.
[0033] The length direction is along the direction of vehicle flow, and the multi-directional displacement hinge 30 can be in the form of a rotating shaft, which extends along the width direction of the beam body.
[0034] The above are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.
[0035] The mounting seat includes a split-design lower support seat 5 and an upper pressure seat, the lower support seat 5 is provided with a receiving groove 51 for accommodating the lower part of the multi-directional displacement hinge 30, and the upper pressure seat includes a pressure block 6 provided on the top of the lower support seat 5. In this embodiment, pressure blocks 6 are provided on opposite sides of the multi-directional displacement hinge 30, and the pressure blocks 6 on both sides can move toward or away from the multi-directional displacement hinge 30, that is, the pressure blocks 6 on both sides can move toward or away from each other. When the lower part of the multi-directional displacement hinge 30 is placed in the receiving groove 51, the pressure blocks 6 on both sides move to the receiving groove 51 and press against the surface of the upper part of the multi-directional displacement hinge 30, and in this state, the pressure block 6 is connected to the lower support seat 5 through the first connecting member 7. In this way, the first connecting member 7 is not directly connected to the cross-seam plate 3, and the cross-seam plate 3 will not become loose due to the loosening of the first connecting member 7. In addition, the first connecting member 7 is lower than the upper surface of the cross-seam plate 3. After the filling member such as concrete or asphalt is poured, the first connecting member 7 is buried in the filling member and will not be directly affected by the vehicle impact load, which can reduce the probability of the first connecting member 7 loosening.
[0036] The first connecting member 7 includes a bolt 71 vertically passing through the pressing block 6 and connected to the lower bracket 5 , and a nut 72 threadedly connected to the top of the bolt 71 , and the nut 72 presses against the top of the pressing block 6 .
[0037] The pressure block 6 located on one side of the multi-directional displacement hinge 30 is located directly below the cross-slit plate 3. The cross-slit plate 3 is provided with a strip hole 31 extending along the movement trajectory of the pressure block 6, and the strip hole 31 is located directly above the movement trajectory of the pressure block 6, so that the pressure block 6 can be pushed through the strip hole 31, and the nut 72 can be tightened through the strip hole 31.
[0038] In addition, after the telescopic device is installed, it is necessary to pour filling pieces such as concrete, asphalt, etc. The strip holes 31 serve as observation holes for observing the filling conditions of the filling pieces below the cross-seam plate 3, so as to observe the construction conditions of the filling pieces and control the construction quality.
[0039] To constrain the movement of the pressing block 6, a slider 61 is provided at the bottom of the pressing block 6. A chute 52 is provided on the lower support 5 for the slider 61 to slide within. The slider 61 is vertically constrained in the chute 52. The combination of the slider 61 and the chute 52 not only guides the movement of the pressing block 6, but also vertically constrains the slider 61. In this embodiment, the longitudinal cross-sections of the slider 61 and the chute 52 are both I-shaped.
[0040] In order to fix the lower supporting seat 5 in the installation slot 11 , a pre-embedded fixing member 8 is pre-embedded at the bottom of the installation slot 11 . The lower supporting seat 5 and the pre-embedded fixing member 8 are fixedly connected via a second connecting member 9 .
[0041] In this embodiment, the embedded fixing part 8 is an embedded steel plate, and the longitudinal section of the second connecting part 9 is T-shaped, including a first part 91 extending vertically and a second part 92 extending laterally. The first part 91 is located on the outside of the lower support seat 5 and the two are welded to each other. The second part 92 is welded to the upper surface of the embedded fixing part 8, and a collision prevention plate 0 is also welded to the outside of the first part 91.
[0042] During installation, first fix the lower support seat 5, move the two pressure blocks 6 away from each other, and after the lower part of the multi-directional displacement hinge 30 is placed in the accommodating groove 51, move the two pressure blocks 6 toward each other until they are against the upper part of the multi-directional displacement hinge 30, and then connect the upper pressure seat and the lower support seat 5 through the first connecting member 7.
[0043] In this embodiment, the pressing blocks 6 on both sides of the multi-directional hinge 30 are movable. Of course, only one side of the pressing block 6 can also be movable. The two pressing blocks 6 can move closer to or farther away from each other. When the multi-directional hinge 30 needs to be positioned, the pressing blocks 6 on both sides are located in the receiving groove 51 and press against the upper surface of the multi-directional hinge 30. In the case where only one side of the pressing block 6 is movable, it is sufficient to provide a slider 61 at the bottom of the movable pressing block 6. If the movable pressing block 6 is located directly below the cross-slit plate 3, the cross-slit plate 3 needs to be provided with a strip hole 31.
[0044] A pressure block 6 may be provided on only one side of the multi-directional hinge 30 , and the pressure block 6 may be moved toward or away from the multi-directional hinge 30 to press against the upper surface of the multi-directional hinge 30 or move away from the multi-directional hinge 30 .
[0045] Example 2
[0046] like Figures 5-7 As shown, the difference between Example 2 and Example 1 is that the structure of the first connecting member 7 is different. For other details, please refer to Example 1.

The connecting column 74 maintains a downward movement tendency under the action of the elastic member, and the lower bracket 5 is provided with a slot 52 for the connecting column to be inserted into.
[0048] During the movement of the pressing block 6, the squeezing of the lower support seat 5 will cause the connecting column 74 to shrink in the fixed head 73. When the connecting column 74 corresponds to the slot 52 in the vertical direction, the connecting column 74 is inserted downward into the slot 52 under the action of the elastic member, thereby realizing the connection between the pressing head 6 and the lower support seat 5.
