Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bridge ice removal, specifically to a bridge ice removal device. Background Technology
[0002] When bridges encounter cold waves and melting snow in winter, the slow water seepage of the bridge causes the melted snow to seep through the drainage outlets. When this water encounters cold air, it forms icicles at multiple outlets. To ensure safe passage for vehicles under the bridge, these icicles need to be cleared. Current methods require aerial ladder trucks and ice-breaking personnel. The ice-breaking personnel stand inside the aerial ladder truck's basket, holding poles to operate the ice. This not only obstructs traffic but also necessitates constant movement of the aerial ladder truck when dealing with different outlets, resulting in low efficiency in clearing the icicles. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a bridge ice removal device.
[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0005] A bridge ice removal device includes a C-shaped frame and a striking body fixed at its lower end. A handle is connected to the top of the C-shaped frame, and an arc-shaped sleeve that is locked onto the upper part of the guardrail of the bridge body is installed at the lower middle part of the C-shaped frame. A locking component is installed on the arc-shaped sleeve.
[0006] Alternatively, the locking assembly includes an arc-shaped slot inside the arc-shaped sleeve, an arc-shaped locking block that can be rotated out inside the arc-shaped slot, and an anti-disengagement actuating block on the outer side of the top of the arc-shaped locking block.
[0007] Alternatively, the cross-sectional shape of the arc-shaped slot may be T-shaped.
[0008] Alternatively, the end of the arc-shaped sleeve has a mounting hole in which a magnet for magnetic connection with the arc-shaped clip is embedded.
[0009] Alternatively, two arc-shaped slots may be provided and distributed on both sides of the C-frame.
[0010] Alternatively, the striking body can be set with a conical angle at its front end.
[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are: the device has a simple structure and is easy to operate. It not only saves time and effort and has high safety when cleaning up ice, but also does not require the use of a ladder truck, which greatly alleviates traffic congestion.

[0018] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0019] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a bridge ice removal device includes a C-shaped frame 5 and a striking body 4 fixed at its lower end. The C-shaped frame 5 is used to cross the guardrail 3 and rotate downwards to remove ice. A handle 6 is connected to the top of the C-shaped frame 5. An arc-shaped sleeve 7 is installed at the lower middle part of the C-shaped frame 5 and is locked onto the upper part of the guardrail 3 of the bridge body 1. The arc-shaped sleeve 7 is set with a semi-circular clamp and a locking component is installed on the arc-shaped sleeve 7. The locking component can prevent the arc-shaped sleeve 7 from falling off the guardrail 3 during operation.
[0020] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the locking assembly includes an arc-shaped groove 8 inside the arc-shaped sleeve 7. An arc-shaped locking block 9 that can be rotated out is provided inside the arc-shaped groove 8. An anti-disengagement actuating block 10 is provided on the outer side of the top of the arc-shaped locking block 9. The actuating block 10 facilitates the arc-shaped locking block 9 to move forward or retract. Moreover, the actuating block 10 can lock with the end of the arc-shaped groove 8 to prevent the arc-shaped locking block 9 from disengaging from the lower end of the arc-shaped groove 8.
[0021] The cross-sectional shape of the arc-shaped groove 8 is T-shaped, which ensures the stability of the rotation of the arc-shaped block 9 and also prevents the arc-shaped block from detaching from the outside of the arc-shaped groove.
[0022] like Figure 5 As shown, the end of the arc-shaped sleeve 7 has a mounting hole 701. A magnet 702 for magnetic connection with the arc-shaped card block 9 is embedded and fixed in the mounting hole 701. The magnet 702 can achieve a stable closed connection between the arc-shaped card block 9 and the arc-shaped sleeve 7.
[0023] like Figure 4 As shown, there are two arc-shaped slots 8, which are distributed on both sides of the C-shaped frame 5.
[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, the front end of the striking body 4 is set with a cone angle. The cone angle design can improve the impact of the striking body 4 on the ice and ensure that the cleaning is quick and convenient.
[0025] The implementation principle of a bridge ice removal device according to an embodiment of this application is as follows:
[0026] When ice forms at the lower part of the bridge's drainage outlet 2, locate the position on the side of the ice formation at the corresponding drainage outlet 2 (this position can be adjusted in coordination with the personnel pointing at the lower part of the bridge body 1). The operator extends the C-shaped frame 5 of this device along the gap of the corresponding guardrail 3 crossbar and puts the semi-circular arc sleeve 7 on the corresponding guardrail 3 crossbar.
[0027] Next, operate the locking assembly and press down the actuating block 10. The actuating block 10 drives the arc-shaped locking block 9 to rotate and extend in the arc-shaped locking groove 8, closing the opening of the arc-shaped sleeve 7 until the arc-shaped locking block 9 and the end of the arc-shaped sleeve 7 are attached. The arc-shaped sleeve 7 is magnetically attracted and fixed by the magnet 702 at the end of the arc-shaped sleeve 7. In this way, the arc-shaped sleeve 7 of the locking assembly will not come off the railing 3, ensuring the safety of the operation of this device.
[0028] After the handle 6 is securely fixed, push it upwards. The handle 6, through the C-shaped frame 5, moves the striking body 4 towards the inside of the bridge body 1, so that the striking body 4 is at the inner end next to the ice on the drain outlet 2. Move the entire handle 6 laterally towards the ice on the drain outlet 2 so that the striking body 4 is facing the rear end of the ice. Personnel on the upper part of the bridge body 1 quickly press down on the handle 6 with their bodies. The handle 6, through the C-shaped frame 5 and with the arc sleeve 7 as the fulcrum, moves the striking body 4 to quickly strike the front end of the ice, thus clearing the ice in one go. After clearing, release the locking component and remove the arc sleeve 7 from the guardrail 3 to clear the next ice spot. This method of clearing ice is not only time-saving and labor-saving with high safety, but also does not require the use of a ladder truck, greatly alleviating traffic congestion.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
