Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bridge construction technology, and in particular relates to a guide and positioning device for pile foundation steel cage. Background Technology
[0002] Pile foundations are crucial load-bearing structures in bridge foundation engineering. Through the piles, they transfer the static and dynamic loads of the superstructure to deep, stable strata or rock layers underground, dispersing ground pressure and preventing localized soil failure. Furthermore, pile foundations can penetrate weak, highly compressible soil layers or water bodies, significantly increasing the bearing capacity of the foundation by relying on deep bearing layers or pile friction, meeting the strength requirements of large bridges. Moreover, pile foundations can resist horizontal loads such as water erosion, earthquakes, and uneven settlement, preventing bridge overturning or sliding and ensuring the overall structural safety. They are an essential component of bridge structures.
[0003] The pile foundation is formed by pouring concrete into a reinforced concrete cage. The upper part of the reinforced concrete cage is connected to the pier column. During pile foundation construction, drilling is first performed using a drilling rig. After the pile hole is formed, the reinforced concrete cage is installed below. After the cage is installed, concrete is poured. The next step is to circumferentially cut the pile head and connect the pre-reserved reinforcing bars at the top of the pile to the reinforcing bars of the pier column. Therefore, the accuracy of positioning during the construction of the reinforced concrete cage is crucial. Furthermore, the pile foundation construction uses a protective casing, the diameter of which is approximately 20cm larger than the pile diameter, presenting certain technical challenges during the installation of the reinforced concrete cage. Utility Model Content

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present utility model can be combined with each other, and the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, not all embodiments.
[0024] See Figure 1-4 This embodiment describes a pile foundation reinforcement cage guiding and positioning device, which includes a square frame 1 and a guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2. The guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2 is disposed inside the square frame 1. Four connecting plates 3 are evenly spaced and horizontally arranged along the top edge of the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2. One end of each connecting plate 3 is connected to the top edge of the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2. The four connecting plates 3 are respectively overlapped on the top of the four sides of the square frame 1. Reinforcement cage fixing steel pipes 4 are horizontally arranged at the four corners of the top of the square frame 1. The reinforcement cage fixing steel pipes 4 extend and retract toward the center of the square frame 1.
[0025] In this embodiment, the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2 has a diameter of 180cm, is made of 6mm thick sheet metal, and has a height of 30cm. The square frame 1 is welded from four 230cm long I-beams, with an inner clearance of 210cm. In this embodiment, the protective cylinder 12 has a diameter of 200cm. Figure 1As shown, the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2 and the square frame 1 are respectively set on the inner and outer sides of the casing 12. The position of the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2 inside the casing 12 is adjusted and determined by the connecting plate 3. The guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2 is used to accurately position the lowering position of the steel cage and guide the lowering of the steel cage, thereby achieving accurate positioning during the construction of the pile foundation steel cage and reducing the installation difficulty of the steel cage.
[0026] In this embodiment, steel pipe fixing plates 5 are provided at the four corners of the square frame 1. The steel pipe fixing plates 5 are in the shape of a gate. The steel rebar cage fixing steel pipe 4 passes through the steel pipe fixing plates 5 and slides with the steel pipe fixing plates 5. The steel pipe fixing plates 5 play a limiting and guiding role for the steel rebar cage fixing steel pipe 4.
[0027] In this embodiment, corner bracing steel plates 6 are provided at the four corners of the square frame 1. The steel pipe fixing steel plates 5 are placed on the corner bracing steel plates 6. The corner bracing steel plates 6 play a role in placing and supporting the steel pipe fixing steel plates 5. In this embodiment, three steel pipe fixing steel plates 5 are provided at each corner of the square frame 1, which are respectively connected to the corner bracing steel plates 6 and the square frame 1.
[0028] In this embodiment, the two ends of the steel pipe fixing plate 5 are connected to the corner brace plate 6 through the first rib plate 7. The first rib plate 7 is used for the connection between the steel pipe fixing plate 5 and the corner brace plate 6.
[0029] In this embodiment, a limiting rod 8 is provided at the outer end of the steel pipe 4 for fixing the reinforcing cage. The limiting rod 8 contacts and cooperates with the outer side of the steel plate 5 for fixing the steel pipe, and the limiting rod 8 plays a limiting role in fixing the steel pipe 4 for fixing the reinforcing cage.
[0030] In this embodiment, the top of the four sides of the square frame 1 is provided with a connecting plate fixing plate 9 that cooperates with the connecting plate 3. The connecting plate fixing plate 9 is located above the connecting plate 3 and is connected to the square frame 1 by bolts. The connecting plate fixing plate 9 serves to limit the position of the connecting plate 3.
[0031] In this embodiment, a fastening bolt 10 is provided on the connecting plate fixing plate 9. The bottom end of the fastening bolt 10 penetrates the connecting plate fixing plate 9 and contacts and engages with the connecting plate 3. The fastening bolt 10 fixes the guide steel cylinder 2 through the connecting plate 3.
[0032] In this embodiment, a second rib 11 is provided between the bottom of the connecting plate 3 and the outer wall of the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2. The second rib 11 is used to strengthen the connection strength between the connecting plate 3 and the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2.
[0033] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:
[0034] First, the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2 is placed on the square frame 1 and assembled using the connecting plate 3. The connecting plate fixing plate 9 is then installed, and the assembled device is placed on the protective cylinder 12. The guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2 and the square frame 1 are positioned on the inner and outer sides of the protective cylinder 12, respectively. After adjusting the position of the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2 to ensure that it is centered on the protective cylinder 12, the four fastening bolts 10 are tightened to fix the position of the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2. The fixed guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2 not only achieves positioning but also guides the reinforcing cage. The reinforcing cage is lowered through the guide cylindrical steel cylinder 2. During the segmented installation and extension process, after the first segment of the reinforcing cage is lowered, the reinforcing cage fixing steel pipe 4 is pushed inward so that it is inserted into the inside of the reinforcing cage, thus fixing and stabilizing the reinforcing cage. The second segment of the reinforcing cage is then hoisted and welded to the fixed first segment of the reinforcing cage. After the connection is completed, the reinforcing cage fixing steel pipe 4 is pulled out, and the reinforcing cage is lowered again. The subsequent segments of the reinforcing cage are then extended in a cyclical manner.
[0035] This device is easy to assemble and disassemble, facilitating modular installation, disassembly, and subsequent storage. It occupies little space, can be reused, and provides precise positioning for the pile foundation reinforcement cage, improving construction quality and reducing subsequent maintenance costs.
