Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of reinforcement device technology, and more specifically, to a landscape stepping stone reinforcement device. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, the design of public spaces is receiving increasing attention, and landscape architecture, as an important element in improving the quality of the urban living environment, plays an indispensable role. Stepping stones, as facilities that connect different landscape areas, guide pedestrian routes, and add natural beauty, are widely used in parks, courtyards, and various green spaces.

[0003] However, with the passage of time and increased usage, some stepping stones or wooden stepping stones have become loose and unstable, affecting not only their aesthetics but also posing safety hazards to pedestrians. Current stepping stone solutions on the market mainly rely on traditional fixing methods, such as direct burial in the soil, fixing with cement mortar, or simple wooden support structures. However, the strength at the edge of the stepping stone where it meets the road surface is low, making it prone to collapse. This causes the original fixing support structure to fail, resulting in the stepping stone becoming shaky and unstable, or even tilting, failing to achieve the desired stability. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a landscape stepping stone reinforcement device, which can improve the support and reinforcement effect of stepping stones, enhance the stability of stepping stones, and extend the service life of stepping stones.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A landscape stepping stone reinforcement device includes a base and a reinforcement plate. A support pile is provided on the top of the base, and a first support plate and a second support plate are provided on the top of the support pile. An elastic column is provided between the first support plate and the second support plate, and the reinforcement plate is provided on the top of the second support plate. The reinforcement plate includes an L-shaped first side plate and a second side plate, which enclose a receiving space. A rotating rod is provided between the first side plate and the second side plate, and the side walls of the first side plate and the second side plate are connected by a telescopic member.

[0007] Furthermore, shock-absorbing springs are provided on the inner sides of the first and second side plates, and buffer plates are provided at the ends of the shock-absorbing springs.

[0008] Furthermore, the telescopic component includes a scissor-type structure and a connecting rod disposed on the first side plate and the second side plate, wherein both ends of the scissor-type structure are respectively connected to the connecting rod on the same side.

[0009] Furthermore, the rotating rod is threadedly connected to the first side plate, the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the second side plate, and a knob is provided at the end of the rotating rod away from the first side plate.

[0010] Furthermore, a through hole is provided inside the second side plate, the outer side of the rotating rod contacts the inner wall of the through hole, an annular groove is provided on the inner wall of the through hole, and an annular strip is provided on the outer wall of the rotating rod, with the outer side of the annular strip contacting the inner wall of the annular groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the first side plate and the second side plate are provided with socket blocks, and the top of the second support plate is provided with a socket slot, wherein the socket blocks are adapted to the socket slot.

[0012] Furthermore, the base is truncated cone-shaped, with the larger end of the base facing downwards, and a grounding pin is provided at the bottom of the base.

[0013] Furthermore, a steel reinforcement cage is installed inside the support pile.

[0014] The technical solution of this utility model has at least the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0015] This invention reinforces and supports the stepping stones using a first and second side plate, enhancing the connection between the stepping stones and the ground, preventing collapse at the edges of the stepping stones and the road surface, and thus providing better stability. The base, support piles, first support plate, and second support plate further enhance the support effect on the stepping stones, thereby improving their stability and extending their service life. The distance between the first and second side plates can be adjusted using a rotating rod and telescopic components, creating different sized accommodating spaces to support and reinforce stepping stones of different specifications. The elastic column buffers the pressure or impact on the stepping stones, reducing the impact on the reinforcement device and extending its service life. Attached Figure Description
