Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of road drainage technology, specifically relating to an integrated drainage structure suitable for bridge expansion joints in asphalt pavement. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, elevated bridges have become important transportation infrastructure. During the construction of elevated bridges, expansion joints are prone to displacement and deformation due to factors such as temperature changes and load effects. This makes expansion joints a major area for rainwater infiltration and accumulation. Especially when the bridge deck uses drainage asphalt pavement, rainwater is more likely to accumulate at the expansion joints, leading to pavement damage, corrosion, and structural damage. In severe cases, this can affect vehicle driving safety and ride comfort.

[0003] Traditional drainage designs typically rely solely on surface drainage systems or drainage systems that collect asphalt at the bridge deck edges. These designs suffer from insufficient drainage, pipe blockage, and maintenance difficulties, failing to effectively address the unique drainage needs at the expansion joints of elevated bridges. In particular, when moisture accumulates along the expansion joints, the lack of an efficient drainage system for timely removal can exacerbate pavement aging, reduce pavement durability, and even cause pavement cracks and structural damage.

[0004] Therefore, developing an integrated drainage device for bridge expansion joints in asphalt pavement that can solve the problem of water accumulation at expansion joints, improve drainage efficiency, and ensure road stability and driving safety has become an urgent technical challenge.

[0010] One end of the water permeable main pipe is higher than the other end, and the lower end is connected with the bridge side ditch drainage system.

[0011] In the utility model, the filter screen is arranged on the water permeable hole of the water permeable branch pipe to prevent the hole from being blocked during asphalt paving.

[0012] In the utility model, the diameter of the water permeable main pipe is 50mm-100mm.

[0013] In the utility model, the bridge pavement layer is made of drainage asphalt material.

[0014] In the utility model, the water permeable main pipe is a transverse drainage pipe along the width direction of the bridge pavement, serves as the main pipe for drainage at the expansion joint, and is responsible for collecting and guiding the accumulated water in the concrete near the expansion joint.

[0015] The water permeable branch pipe is a longitudinal drainage branch pipe along the length direction of the bridge pavement, serves as the water collecting pipe for collecting the accumulated water in the drainage asphalt of the bridge pavement layer, and the water permeable hole end of the multiple longitudinal branch pipes extends into the bridge pavement layer with drainage asphalt, so that the longitudinal and transverse seepage water can be effectively collected.

[0016] The construction method of the integrated drainage device provided by the utility model comprises the following specific steps:

[0018] The integrated structure of the utility model makes the construction and maintenance more convenient, has the advantages of simple structure, high stability, excellent drainage efficiency and strong adaptability, etc. The seepage water in the drainage asphalt pavement is collected into the transverse drainage main pipe through the multiple longitudinal branch pipes, and finally connected to the elevated edge drainage system, so that the road surface damage or damage caused by accumulated water is effectively avoided, and the comfort and safety of driving are ensured.
