Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of highway bridge construction technology, and in particular to an auxiliary tool for quick replacement of highway bridge expansion joints. Background Technology

[0002] Expansion joints in highway bridges are an indispensable key component of bridge structures. Their main function is to accommodate the displacement and deformation of the bridge under the influence of factors such as temperature changes, vehicle loads, and foundation settlement, while ensuring the smoothness and safety of vehicle travel.

[0003] When replacing existing highway bridge expansion joints, if they are only supported by simple supports without being stably clamped, the joints may shift during the welding process with the pre-reserved steel bars, resulting in uneven stress at the weld points. This can easily lead to loosening and breakage later on, causing the expansion joint to fall off or fail completely. In addition, the difference in height or tilt angle between the top surface of the expansion joint and the concrete pavement on both sides is a common construction quality problem. If it is not corrected in time, it will have many negative impacts on the bridge's performance, traffic safety, and the lifespan of the expansion joint. Utility Model Content
