Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of suspension bridge construction technology, specifically relating to a lifting tool for hoisting irregularly shaped steel beams of suspension bridges. Background Technology
[0002] Steel box girders are widely used in bridges in my country due to their advantages such as high strength, light weight, convenient construction, saving on formwork and support, environmental friendliness, durability, and wide applicability. In recent years, with the continuous development of bridge technology in my country, bridge spans have become increasingly larger.
[0003] Suspension bridges are the bridge type with the strongest span capacity. The main girder of a suspension bridge is divided into two types: steel box girder and truss girder. The bridge layout is also divided into two-span (three or four-span) continuous or single-span double-girder main girder structures. The installation of the main girder is one of the key procedures in the construction of a suspension bridge.
[0004] Lifting lugs for suspension bridge steel box girders are generally located on the top of the girder. Most lifting equipment is designed with a box-shaped structure, which offers good strength, stability, and versatility. However, some steel box girders located at transition piers or towers are designed with irregular shapes. When using hydraulic lifting equipment suspended from the main cables for hoisting, the lifting lugs must be positioned directly below the lifting equipment to prevent them from twisting during hoisting and causing safety accidents. However, because the steel box girder is an irregular structure, with a width smaller than the main cable spacing, it is not possible to install lifting lugs directly below the main cables on the top surface of the girder. Therefore, a specialized design for the lifting equipment is required for the steel box girder structure. Utility Model Content
