Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bridge construction technology, and more specifically, to an auxiliary support device for bridge construction. Background Technology
[0002] Steel structure bridges are a widely used and historically significant type of bridge structure in bridge engineering. They have advantages such as light weight, uniform material, and stable quality. Due to their unique structural advantages and excellent performance, they have become the mainstream choice for long-span bridges.
[0003] The incremental launching method is a commonly used method in steel bridge construction, particularly suitable for the construction of long-span bridges such as suspension bridges and cable-stayed bridges. However, when using the incremental launching method for steel bridge construction, it is necessary to reduce the overall height of the pads according to the working conditions. Conventional pad systems are bulky and heavy, making operation inconvenient, especially in confined spaces.
[0004] For example, the Longwangxi Bridge is a high-pier, long-span bridge. There are only four pier tops at the bridge site as support points for construction. This means that the jacking and lowering of the steel beams can only be carried out on the pier tops, which is a difficult operation due to the limited space. Utility Model Content
[0005] The problem this utility model aims to solve is: how to facilitate the jacking and lowering of steel beams in a limited working space.
[0006] This utility model provides a bridge construction auxiliary support device, including: a top pad, a bottom pad, and a middle pad. The top pad and the bottom pad are detachably connected to both ends of the middle pad. The middle pad includes a plurality of pads stacked vertically, and any two adjacent pads are detachably connected to each other. Each pad has a transverse connection system and a longitudinal connection system on its outer wall to enhance structural stability.
[0007] The bridge construction auxiliary support device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with related technologies:
[0008] The bridge construction auxiliary support device described in this utility model can be used to simultaneously arrange, for example, four such devices on the top of a pier to meet different construction requirements. These four devices can be arranged in a rectangular pattern. The transverse and longitudinal connecting systems on each device are then interconnected to increase overall structural stability. During jacking or lowering of the beam, the overall height of the auxiliary support device needs to be reduced according to the working conditions. Taking beam lowering as an example, the auxiliary support device, in conjunction with a jack system, lowers the beam in a stepped manner. Each time the beam is lowered, the top support is removed, then the topmost support block of the middle support is removed, and the top support block is reinstalled on top of the middle support. This process maintains a fixed lowering height each time, hence the name "stepped lowering." This operation is repeated until the beam reaches the design elevation. Compared to related technologies, this bridge construction auxiliary support device allows for the directional lowering of steel beams within a limited working space by gradually reducing the number of support blocks, facilitating operation, reducing construction risks, and improving construction operability and efficiency.

[0031] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0032] In the description of this utility model, the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "up", "down", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "front", "back", "inner" and "outer" is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing this utility model and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0033] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0034] In the description of this specification, references to terms such as "embodiment," "one embodiment," and "one implementation" indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or implementation is included in at least one embodiment or implementation of the present invention. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or implementation. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or implementations.
[0035] Furthermore, in the attached diagram, the Z-axis represents the vertical direction, that is, the up and down position, and the positive direction of the Z-axis (that is, the direction the arrow of the Z-axis points) represents up, and the negative direction of the Z-axis (that is, the direction opposite to the positive direction of the Z-axis) represents down.
[0036] It should also be noted that the aforementioned Z-axis designation is only for the purpose of facilitating the description of this utility model and simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation on this utility model.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the bridge construction auxiliary support device of this utility model includes: a top pad 1, a bottom pad 2 and a middle pad. The top pad 1 and the bottom pad 2 are detachably connected to the two ends of the middle pad. The middle pad includes a plurality of pad blocks 3 stacked in the vertical direction, and any two adjacent pad blocks 3 are detachably connected to each other. Each pad block 3 has a transverse connection system and a longitudinal connection system on its outer wall to enhance structural stability.
[0038] In this embodiment, to meet different construction requirements, for example, four auxiliary support devices for bridge construction can be simultaneously arranged on the top of one pier as needed. These devices are fixed to the top of the pier by bottom pads 2, and the four auxiliary support devices can be arranged in a rectangular pattern (see attached diagram). Figure 6 (As shown), then the transverse and longitudinal connecting systems on each bridge construction auxiliary support device are interconnected to increase the overall structural stability. During jacking or beam lowering construction, the overall height of this bridge construction auxiliary support device needs to be reduced according to the working conditions. Taking beam lowering construction as an example, this bridge construction auxiliary support device, in conjunction with the jack system, lowers the beam in a stepped manner. That is, each time the beam is lowered, the top pad 1 is removed first, and then a pad located at the very top of the middle pad (see attached) is removed. Figure 1 The pad 3 (in the positive Z-axis direction) is placed on top of the middle pad, and then the top pad 1 is reinstalled on top of the middle pad. This ensures a fixed height for each beam drop, hence the name "stepped beam drop." This process is repeated until the beam reaches the design elevation. Compared to related technologies, this bridge construction auxiliary support device allows for the directional lowering of steel beams within a limited working space by gradually reducing the number of pad layers. This facilitates operation, reduces construction risks, and improves construction operability and efficiency.

Multiple first ear plates 31 are evenly distributed along the circumferential outer wall at both ends of the pad 3, for example, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 The pad 3 shown has four first ear plates 31 evenly distributed along its circumferential outer wall at both ends.

When any two pads 3 need to be connected to each other, the two pads 3 are first stacked together so that the first ear plates 31 on the two pads 3 abut against each other and the first connecting holes on them are coaxial. In this way, the two pads 3 can be connected into one piece by bolts. Then the above operation is repeated until all the pads 3 are connected into one piece.
