Therefore, a Class SB guardrail with good transparency and protective performance meeting design specifications is needed to improve the safety and aesthetics of municipal roads. [Utility Model Content]

[0004] To address the issues of low transparency and poor landscape effect of existing three-wave beam steel guardrails, this application provides a beam-column type crash barrier.

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

[0006] A beam-column type crash barrier includes a first crossbeam, a second crossbeam, a third crossbeam, and a plurality of supporting columns. Each of the supporting columns is provided with a first anti-blocking block for the first crossbeam to be installed and connected, a second anti-blocking block for the second crossbeam to be installed and connected, and a third anti-blocking block for the third crossbeam to be installed and connected.

Detailed Implementation Methods

[0025] To make the technical problems solved by this application, the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects clearer, this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 6 A beam-column type crash barrier includes a first horizontal beam 1, a second horizontal beam 2, a third horizontal beam 3, and a plurality of supporting columns 4. Each of the supporting columns 4 is provided with a first anti-blocking block 5 for the first horizontal beam 1 to be installed and connected, a second anti-blocking block 6 for the second horizontal beam 2 to be installed and connected, and a third anti-blocking block 7 for the third horizontal beam 3 to be installed and connected. The first anti-blocking block 5, the second anti-blocking block 6, and the third anti-blocking block 7 are spaced apart along the height direction of the supporting columns 4.

[0027] This application discloses a beam-column type crash barrier. Through the spaced first, second, and third horizontal beams, the barrier provides a wider field of vision. Combined with multiple supporting columns and first, second, and third anti-collision blocks spaced along the height of the supporting columns, it can absorb and disperse impact energy during a vehicle collision, effectively mitigating the transmission of collision force and reducing damage to the vehicle and the barrier structure. This allows the barrier to meet SB-level protection requirements while maintaining good transparency, effectively reducing the sense of confinement for drivers of small passenger vehicles and improving the driving experience and road aesthetics. The first, second, and third anti-collision blocks are all installed to the supporting columns using M16*170 bolts.

[0028] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the first anti-blocking block 5 includes a top connecting plate 51, a left connecting plate 52 and a right connecting plate 53 corresponding to the left and right sides of the supporting column 4 and used for detachable connection with the supporting column 4, and a first upper connecting plate 54 and a first lower connecting plate 55 corresponding to the upper and lower sides of the first crossbeam 1 and used for detachable connection with the first crossbeam 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, the first anti-collision block 5 is securely connected to the supporting column 4 and forms a stable connection with the first crossbeam 1. During a vehicle collision, the anti-collision block 5, through its connecting plate structure design, effectively disperses the collision force onto the supporting column 4 and the crossbeam, preventing the vehicle from directly impacting the column and causing greater damage. Simultaneously, the anti-collision block 5 itself acts as an energy-absorbing mechanism, gradually deforming during the collision to absorb some of the collision energy, reducing the vehicle's kinetic energy and thus lowering the impact on the vehicle and occupants. This improves the overall stability and protective performance of the guardrail, allowing it to better maintain structural integrity and reduce deformation and damage during a collision. Furthermore, the detachable connection facilitates the installation and maintenance of the guardrail, reducing construction and repair costs.

[0030] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the second anti-blocking block 6 includes a central connecting member 61 detachably connected to the supporting column 4, and a second upper connecting plate 62 and a second lower connecting plate 63 disposed on the central connecting member 61 corresponding to the upper and lower sides of the second crossbeam 2 and used for detachable connection with the second crossbeam 2.

[0031] In this embodiment, the second anti-collision block 6 is firmly connected to the supporting column 4 via the central connector 61, and simultaneously connected to the second crossbeam 2 via the second upper connecting plate 62 and the second lower connecting plate 63. This allows the second anti-collision block 6 to effectively distribute the impact force to the supporting column 4 and the second crossbeam 2 during a vehicle collision, preventing the vehicle from directly impacting the column and causing greater damage. The anti-collision block itself acts as an energy-absorbing mechanism, gradually deforming during the collision to absorb some of the collision energy, reducing the vehicle's kinetic energy and thus lowering the impact on the vehicle and occupants. This improves the overall stability and protective performance of the guardrail, allowing it to better maintain structural integrity during a collision and reducing deformation and damage. Furthermore, the detachable connection facilitates the installation and maintenance of the guardrail, reducing construction and repair costs. In addition, this structure effectively prevents the vehicle's front wheels from being obstructed by the column during a collision, avoiding a larger accident caused by sudden obstruction.

[0032] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the third anti-blocking block 7 includes a bottom connector 71 detachably connected to the supporting column 4, and a third upper connecting plate 72 and a third lower connecting plate 73 disposed on the bottom connector 71 corresponding to the upper and lower sides of the third crossbeam 3 and used for detachable connection with the third crossbeam 3.

[0033] In this embodiment, the third anti-collision block 7 is firmly connected to the support column 4 via the bottom connector 71, and is connected to the third crossbeam 3 via the third upper connecting plate 72 and the third lower connecting plate 73. This structure allows the third anti-collision block 7 to effectively distribute the collision force to the support column 4 and the third crossbeam 3 during a vehicle collision, preventing the vehicle from directly impacting the column and causing greater damage. The anti-collision block itself acts as an energy-absorbing mechanism, gradually deforming during the collision to absorb some of the collision energy, reducing the vehicle's kinetic energy and thus reducing the impact on the vehicle and occupants. This improves the overall stability and protective performance of the guardrail, allowing it to better maintain structural integrity and reduce deformation and damage during a collision. Simultaneously, the detachable connection facilitates the installation and maintenance of the guardrail, reducing construction and repair costs. Furthermore, this structure effectively prevents the vehicle's front wheels from being obstructed by the column during a collision, avoiding a larger accident caused by sudden obstruction.

[0034] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the dimensions of the third crossbeam 3 are smaller than those of the first crossbeam 1 and the second crossbeam 2.

[0035] In this embodiment, the third crossbeam 3, with its smaller size, effectively protects small passenger vehicles while reducing material usage and thus lowering overall costs. During a vehicle collision, the third crossbeam 3 works in conjunction with the first crossbeam 1 and the second crossbeam 2 to distribute the impact force throughout the guardrail structure, ensuring that the protective performance meets design requirements. This not only meets the protection needs for small passenger vehicles but also significantly reduces production costs and improves economic efficiency by optimizing material usage. Furthermore, the smaller crossbeam size provides greater visual transparency, allowing for better integration with municipal greening and landscaping, enhancing the overall aesthetics of the road. The third crossbeam 3 is connected to the third anti-blocking block 7 using M16*100mm bolts, and adjacent third crossbeams are fixedly connected using M16*80 hexagonal head bolts. The first crossbeam 1 and the second crossbeam 2 are connected to the first anti-blocking block 5 and the second anti-blocking block 6 respectively using M16*140mm bolts, and adjacent first crossbeams 1 and adjacent second crossbeams 2 are fixedly connected using M16*140 hexagonal head bolts.

[0036] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the thickness H of the bottom connector 71 gradually decreases from the side closer to the support column 4 to the side farther away from the support column 4.

[0037] In this embodiment, due to the relatively small size of the third crossbeam 3, the torque transmitted to the bottom connector 71 during the collision is relatively large. If the bottom connector 71 has a uniform thickness, it is prone to upward or downward bending deformation upon impact, thus affecting the overall stability and protective effect of the guardrail. By designing the thickness of the bottom connector 71 as a sloping structure, with a larger thickness on the side closer to the support column 4, providing stronger support and rigidity, and a gradually decreasing thickness on the side farther from the support column 4, the impact force is effectively dispersed, reducing local stress concentration. This gradually varying thickness design not only enhances the deformation resistance of the bottom connector 71 but also optimizes the energy absorption and transmission path, ensuring the stability and reliability of the guardrail during the collision process.

[0038] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the distance between the second crossbeam 2 and the first crossbeam 1 is L1, wherein 300mm≤L1≤350mm.

[0039] In this embodiment, a reasonable beam spacing is a key factor in ensuring that the guardrail effectively absorbs and disperses impact energy during a collision. The optimal choice of L1, between 300mm and 350mm, especially 320mm, is based on in-depth research into the collision characteristics of medium-sized buses and large vehicles. This spacing ensures that, in the event of a collision, the first beam 1 and the second beam 2 can function sequentially, absorbing impact energy in stages and preventing a single beam from bearing excessive impact force and causing structural failure. Simultaneously, it maximizes the visual transparency of the guardrail without compromising its protective performance. The 320mm spacing, by balancing mechanical performance and visual effects, optimizes the psychological experience for drivers and passengers, reducing the oppressive feeling of a closed guardrail and thus improving driving comfort and safety.

[0040] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the distance between the third crossbeam 3 and the second crossbeam 2 is L2, wherein 250mm≤L2≤300mm.

[0041] In this embodiment, considering the collision characteristics of small passenger vehicles, L2 is selected between 250mm and 300mm, with 280mm being the optimal choice, after rigorous mechanical analysis and practical testing. This spacing is designed to ensure that in the event of a collision involving a small passenger vehicle, the second crossbeam 2 and the third crossbeam 3 can function sequentially, absorbing and dispersing impact energy in stages. Because of the low height of small passenger vehicles, a smaller size of the third crossbeam 3 can provide effective protection, while the 280mm spacing ensures that the third crossbeam 3 intervenes promptly during the collision, reducing the impact load on the second crossbeam 2 and preventing a single crossbeam from deforming or failing due to excessive impact force. Simultaneously, this spacing maximizes the visual transparency of the guardrail while ensuring protective performance, reducing the oppressive feeling of a closed guardrail, thereby improving driving comfort and safety.

[0042] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the top connecting plate 51 abuts against the top of the support column 4 to cover the top of the support column 4.

[0043] In this embodiment, the top connecting plate 51 is tightly connected to the top of the supporting column 4 via fasteners, ensuring the stability and reliability of the anti-collision block during collision. Simultaneously, its capping design completely covers the top opening of the supporting column 4, forming an effective cap structure. This design not only prevents rainwater, dust, and other debris from entering the column, avoiding corrosion and damage to the internal structure, but also enhances the overall rigidity and aesthetics of the column. The capping function, through a simple structural design, significantly improves the durability and ease of maintenance of the guardrail.

[0044] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the first crossbeam 1, the second crossbeam 2, and the third crossbeam 3 are all made of D-shaped crossbeams.

[0045] In this embodiment, the D-shaped crossbeam, due to its unique cross-sectional shape, possesses high bending and torsional resistance. In the crash barrier, the first and second crossbeams utilize a larger size of 120mm*100mm, effectively withstanding greater collision forces and ensuring that the impact force is evenly distributed across the supporting posts and the entire barrier structure during a vehicle collision. The third crossbeam uses a smaller size of 80mm*60mm, primarily designed to meet the protection requirements of small passenger vehicles. Its smaller size, while satisfying protection requirements, reduces the overall weight of the barrier, lowering material costs.

[0046] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0047] This application discloses a beam-column type crash barrier. Through the spaced first, second, and third horizontal beams, the barrier provides a wider field of vision. Combined with multiple supporting columns and first, second, and third anti-blocking blocks spaced along the height of the supporting columns, it can absorb and disperse impact energy during a vehicle collision, effectively mitigating the transmission of collision force and reducing damage to the vehicle and the barrier structure. This allows the barrier to meet SB-level protection requirements while maintaining good transparency, effectively reducing the feeling of confinement for drivers of small passenger vehicles, improving the driving experience and road aesthetics. Furthermore, this structural design facilitates integration with green landscapes, further enhancing the overall aesthetic effect of municipal roads. It achieves an organic combination of protective performance and aesthetics, providing a safer, more beautiful, and practical guardrail solution for urban roads.
