Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of gas station brand pillars, specifically relating to a steel frame structure for gas station brand pillars. Background Technology
[0002] Gas station brand pillars are prominent signs that help customers quickly identify the brand and location of a gas station, guiding drivers to easily find the station even in distant or unfamiliar areas.
[0003] The steel frames used for gas station branding pillars are typically connected by welding or bolting. Welding provides high strength but requires highly skilled construction workers; bolting facilitates installation and disassembly. For example, modular branding pillars use high-strength bolts to connect cast steel connectors, cast steel bases, and other components, forming a stable and detachable steel frame structure.
[0004] However, brand column steel frames are basically produced in flat and wide specifications. When the wind is too strong, the wind-exposed surface of the brand column increases, and the brand column often tilts. On the one hand, this reduces the strength of the brand column, and on the other hand, it can easily cause safety accidents.
[0005] Therefore, a steel frame structure for gas station brand columns was designed to overcome the aforementioned technical defects. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a steel frame structure for gas station brand columns. This steel frame structure aims to solve the technical problem that the brand columns often tilt due to the increased wind exposure surface under the existing technology.
[0008] (2) Technical solution
[0009] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a steel frame structure for a gas station brand column, including an outer frame, which is a rectangular frame structure. Several crossbeams are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer frame. A support beam is provided on the lower side of the outer frame. Two support arms are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support beam. A motor is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the support beam. The output shaft of the motor passes through the crossbeam and is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the outer frame.
[0010] An annular plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer frame, and two arc-shaped grooves corresponding to the annular plate are opened on the top surface of the support beam. A wind direction detection component is installed on the top surface of the outer frame.
[0011] Furthermore, the wind direction detection component includes an insertion hole on the top surface of the outer frame, an adjustment rod installed in the insertion hole, a bolt threadedly connected to the side wall of the outer frame near the top surface, several screw holes on the side wall of the adjustment rod, the bolts and screw holes being matched, and a wind direction flag mounted on the side wall of the adjustment rod.
[0012] Furthermore, a locking block is fixedly connected to the side of the wind direction flag, and a locking groove is opened on the top end face of the adjusting rod, with the locking block and the locking groove being compatible.
[0013] Furthermore, a pointer is fixedly connected to the center of the front side wall of the outer frame near the bottom, and a scale is set on the top surface of the support beam, with the pointer corresponding to the scale.
[0014] Furthermore, a waterproof cover is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support beam, and the motor is located inside the waterproof cover.
[0015] Furthermore, several spotlights are fixedly installed on the top surface of the annular plate.
[0016] Furthermore, the annular plate is adapted to the arc-shaped groove.

[0025] This specific embodiment is a steel frame structure for a gas station brand column, and its structural diagram is shown below. Figures 1-4As shown, it includes an outer frame 1, which is a rectangular frame structure. Several crossbeams 2 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer frame 1. A support beam 3 is provided on the lower side of the outer frame 1. Two support arms 4 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support beam 3. A motor 5 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the support beam 3. The output shaft of the motor 5 passes through the crossbeam 2 and is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the outer frame 1.
[0026] An annular plate 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the outer frame 1. Two arc-shaped grooves 7 corresponding to the annular plate 6 are opened on the top surface of the support beam 3. The annular plate 6 and the arc-shaped grooves 7 are adapted to each other. A wind direction detection component is set on the top surface of the outer frame 1.
[0027] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the wind direction detection component includes an insertion hole on the top surface of the outer frame 1, an adjustment rod 10 is installed in the insertion hole, a bolt 11 is threadedly connected to the side wall of the outer frame 1 near the top surface, a number of screw holes 12 are opened on the side wall of the adjustment rod 10, the bolt 11 is adapted to the screw holes 12, and a wind direction flag 13 is installed on the side wall of the adjustment rod 10.
[0028] The wind direction flag 13 allows for real-time monitoring of wind direction, enabling timely adjustments to the outer frame 1. This prevents the wide side of the outer frame 1 from being perpendicular to the wind direction, which could result in an excessively large windward surface and cause it to tip over or tilt, thus further ensuring its support strength. Furthermore, the height of the wind direction flag 13 can be adjusted using bolts 11 and screw holes 12 according to the installation position of the outer frame 1, facilitating optimal windward performance.
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, a locking block 14 is fixedly connected to the side of the wind direction flag 13, and a locking groove 15 is opened on the top end face of the adjusting rod 10. The locking block 14 and the locking groove 15 are adapted to each other. Both the locking block 14 and the locking groove 15 have a T-shaped cross-section. When the wind direction flag 13 is used for a period of time, if it shows signs of weathering, breakage, or fading, it can be easily removed and replaced, thus ensuring its ease of use.
[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, a pointer 9 is fixedly connected to the center of the front side wall of the outer frame 1 near the bottom surface, and a scale 8 is set on the top surface of the support beam 3, with the pointer 9 corresponding to the scale 8. When the outer frame 1 adjusts its angle according to the wind direction, the rotation angle of the outer frame 1 can be determined by the pointer 9, which is helpful for determining the wind direction and predicting subsequent wind direction changes.
[0031] like Figure 2As shown, a waterproof cover 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support beam 3, and the motor 5 is located inside the waterproof cover 16. During installation, the support arm 4 and the waterproof cover 16 can be pre-embedded below the ground and fixed with steel structure and concrete. The support arm 4 and the support beam 3 are connected by screws, which facilitates subsequent maintenance of the motor 5. The waterproof cover 16 can prevent surface water from corroding the motor 5 and affecting its lifespan.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, several spotlights 17 are fixedly installed on the top surface of the annular plate 6. The spotlights 17 can illuminate the refueling information on the surface of the outer frame 1 in real time, which makes it convenient for vehicles to observe the information from a distance, and the illumination is not affected even if the outer frame 1 is rotated.
[0033] Working principle: During use, if strong winds occur, the wind direction can be determined by the wind direction flag 13. Then, the motor 5 is started. The output shaft of the motor 5 drives the outer frame 1 to rotate, so that the side of the outer frame 1 rotates to a position opposite to the wind direction, reducing the contact area between the outer frame 1 and the wind direction, and avoiding the problem of tipping over due to wind force. At the same time, the rotation, together with the ring plate 6, can provide higher support strength for the outer frame 1, further improving stability.
[0034] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.
[0035] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
