[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bridge railing detection technology, specifically to a device for detecting the reaction force of bridge railings against horizontal thrust. Background Technology

[0002] Bridge railings are protective structures installed on both sides of bridges, mainly used to prevent out-of-control vehicles from running off the bridge or pedestrians from falling off.

In recent years, bridge railing collapses have occurred frequently, affecting the local economy and the safety of people's travel.

[0003] Existing bridge railings are generally installed separately, and there are no corresponding force-relieving devices in the field. If the reaction force is provided by stacking heavy objects, the detection efficiency is low and the cost is high. Although there are some improvement methods, such as making temporary frames and fixing them to the bridge deck or sidewalk with ground anchor bolts, this method does not require stacking heavy objects to provide the reaction force, but it will damage the bridge deck or sidewalk.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a reaction force device for detecting the resistance of bridge railings to horizontal thrust. Utility Model Content

[0010] Preferably, the thrust assembly includes a third strip hole and a movable plate, wherein the third strip hole is vertically formed on the upper side of the side frame.

[0011] Preferably, the upper and lower ends of the movable plate are threaded with tightening bolts, each tightening bolt passing through a third strip hole laterally, and each tightening bolt surface is threaded with a matching nut.

[0022] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0023] Please refer to the appendix. Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a reaction force device for detecting the horizontal thrust resistance of a bridge railing, used to detect the thrust of a bridge railing 24 fixed to the top of a railing base 23. The bottom of the railing base 23 is fixed to the top of a bridge slab beam 22 (e.g., ...). Figure 3-6 As shown), it includes a reaction frame body, which includes a horizontally arranged base frame 1, a longitudinally fixed frame 2 at the end of the base frame 1, a vertically fixed side frame 3 at the top of the fixed frame 2, and a first reinforcing rod 4 and a second reinforcing rod 5 (as shown) obliquely fixed between the base frame 1 and the side frame 3. Figure 1 As shown), under the action of the first reinforcing rod 4 and the second reinforcing rod 5, the stability of the overall structure of the reaction frame can be effectively increased. The side frame 3 is detachably installed with an anti-horizontal thrust component on the lower side and a thrust component is detachably installed on the upper side of the side frame 3. It also includes a bridge railing deformation detection component.

[0024] The anti-horizontal thrust assembly includes a first strip hole 6 and a U-shaped clamp 7. The first strip hole 6 is vertically formed on the lower side of the side frame 3. One end of the U-shaped clamp 7 passes through the first strip hole 6, and the other end of the U-shaped clamp 7 is horizontally fixed with a threaded sleeve 8. A fixing screw 9 is threadedly connected to the inner surface of the threaded sleeve 8. A rotating handle 10 is fixed to the end of the fixing screw 9 away from the side frame 3, and a steel pad 11 is fixed to the end of the fixing screw 9 near the side frame 3. The side end of the steel pad 11 abuts against the side end of the railing base 23 (e.g., Figure 4As shown), specifically, under the action of the U-shaped clamp 7, the side frame 3 of the reaction frame can be connected to the railing base 23. Then, by rotating the handle 10 to rotate the fixing screw 9, the steel pad 11 is pressed against the railing base 23, thereby providing a reaction force during the process of applying a pushing force to the bridge railing 11. That is, the reaction device can rely on the railing base 23 to fix the reaction frame to provide a reaction force without the need for additional counterweight, saving testing costs. Moreover, under the action of the first strip hole 6, the U-shaped clamp 7 can be easily moved upward and removed, that is, the U-shaped clamp 7 and the reaction frame are easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0025] A second strip hole 12 is provided laterally on the side of the base frame 1 away from the fixed frame 2. Specifically, the base frame 1 also has a strip hole. If the reaction force is large, expansion bolts can be used for fixing to improve the stability of the reaction frame.

[0026] The thrust assembly includes a third strip-shaped hole 13 and a movable plate 14. The third strip-shaped hole 13 is vertically opened on the upper side of the side frame 3. Tightening bolts 15 are threaded to both the upper and lower ends of the movable plate 14. Each tightening bolt 15 passes laterally through the third strip-shaped hole 13, and a matching nut 16 is threaded onto the surface of each tightening bolt 15. A bracket 17 is laterally fixed to the side end of the movable plate 14. A jack 18 is placed on top of the bracket 17 and fixed to the top of the bracket 17 by a stainless steel strip 19. The output shaft end of the jack 18 abuts against the side of the bridge railing 24. Specifically, the jack 18 is preferably a manual jack with a capacity of 10 tons or less. The pressurized jack 18 can apply a thrust to the bridge railing 24 when pressurized. Under the action of the third strip hole 13, the operator can control the moving plate 14 to move up and down by tightening and loosening the bolts 15 and matching nuts 16, so that the height of the jack 18 can be easily adjusted. It can be used for the inspection of bridge railings of different heights, with a wide range of applications. Moreover, the operator can also control the disassembly and assembly of the moving plate 14 by disassembling and tightening the bolts 15 and matching nuts 16. In other words, the reaction frame is easy to assemble and move for inspection, which greatly improves the inspection efficiency and will not damage the bridge structure.

[0027] The bridge railing deformation detection component includes several dial indicator supports 20, which are evenly arranged from front to back on one side of the bridge railing 24. Each dial indicator support 20 has a dial indicator 21 fixed to its top, and the detection end of each dial indicator 21 abuts against the side of the bridge railing 24. Specifically, under the action of the dial indicators 21, the deformation of the bridge railing 24 can be detected.

[0028] The usage process of this utility model is as follows: First, the user places the reaction frame on top of the bridge beam 22. Then, by tightening or loosening the bolts 15 and matching nuts 16, the user controls the movement of the moving plate 14 up and down, adjusting the jack 18 to the height of the bridge railing 24. Next, the user moves the reaction frame so that the jack 18 contacts the bridge railing 24. Then, the U-shaped clamp 7 passes through the first slot 6 and moves downwards, so that the bridge base 23 is located inside the U-shaped clamp 7. Then, by rotating the handle 10, the user rotates the fixing screw 9, causing the steel pad 11 to abut against the railing base 23. Then, several dial indicator supports 20 are evenly arranged so that the dial indicator testing ends contact the bridge railing 24. After preparation, the user controls the jack 18 to apply pressure, applying a pushing force to the bridge railing 24. At this time, the reaction device can rely on the railing base 23 to fix the reaction frame to provide reaction force. Under the action of several dial indicators 21, the deformation of the bridge railing 24 can be detected.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify this utility model or modify it into an equivalent technical solution using the technical solution described above. Therefore, any simple modifications or equivalent substitutions made based on the technical solution of this utility model are within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
