Multiple columns are spaced apart along the circumference of the ring assemblies. Each ring assembly includes two semi-rings, left and right, detachably connected. The lower ends of the columns are connected to the lower semi-rings via connecting mechanisms, and the upper ends are detachably connected to the upper semi-rings. The connecting mechanism includes a connecting plate, with fixing bolts on both sides connecting to the semi-rings. The connecting plate has grooves that mate with the fixing bolts, the length of which is parallel to the radial direction of the semi-ring.

[0006] Furthermore, the semi-ring body includes a top plate and a bottom plate, with an intermediate component between the top plate and the bottom plate; the intermediate component is disposed on the outer side of the semi-ring body, with its upper end connected to the top plate and its lower end connected to the bottom plate.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] A ring-shaped multi-point support device, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the assembly includes two annular components, upper and lower, connected by columns 2. Multiple columns 2 are spaced apart along the circumference of the annular components. Each annular component includes two semi-annular components 1, left and right, which are detachably connected. The lower ends of each column 2 are connected to the lower semi-annular component 1 via a connecting mechanism, and the upper ends are detachably connected to the upper semi-annular component 1. The connecting mechanism includes a connecting plate 3, which is connected to the semi-annular component 1 on both sides via fixing bolts 4. The connecting plate 3 has a strip groove 5 that mates with the fixing bolts 4, and the length direction of the strip groove 5 is the same as the radial direction of the semi-annular component 1.

[0026] For example, the connecting plate 3 and the column 2 can be connected by conventional methods such as welding. The column 2 can be arranged in four, six, eight or more at intervals along the circumference of the annular assembly. Those skilled in the art can choose the arrangement according to actual needs, which will not be elaborated here. By adopting a detachable annular assembly and a detachable column 2, the modular design of this device is realized, which is conducive to reducing production and processing costs, and at the same time facilitates on-site assembly by construction personnel.

[0027] In addition, by setting a strip groove 5 on the connecting plate 3, and using the strip groove 5 in conjunction with the fixing bolt 4, not only can the column 2 be stably assembled on the annular assembly, but it can also play a good guiding role for the column 2 during the assembly process. The operator can first install the fixing bolt 4, and then use the fixing bolt 4 in conjunction with the strip groove 5 to achieve the guiding assembly and adjustment of the column 2, which reduces the difficulty of adjusting and assembling the column 2.

[0028] Preferably, the semi-ring 1 includes a top plate 8 and a bottom plate 9, with an intermediate component 10 provided between the top plate 8 and the bottom plate 9; the intermediate component 10 is disposed on the outer side of the semi-ring 1, with its upper end connected to the top plate 8 and its lower end connected to the bottom plate 9. Exemplarily, the top plate 8 and the intermediate component 10, and the bottom plate 9 and the intermediate component 10, can be connected by conventional methods such as welding.

[0029] In practical applications, the intermediate component 10 is a grid-like structural component. By using a grid-like intermediate component 10, the weight of the intermediate component 10 can be reduced while ensuring its structural strength, which is beneficial for achieving a lightweight design of the semi-ring 1 and reducing the difficulty of assembly and hoisting of the semi-ring 1. In addition, by using a grid-like intermediate component 10 and connecting the top plate 8 and the bottom plate 9 with the intermediate component 10, the semi-ring 1 can form a honeycomb sandwich structure, which has higher structural strength compared with other structures.

[0030] Preferably, the semi-ring 1 further includes a semi-ring plate 11, which is an arc-shaped structural component and is disposed corresponding to the inner side of the semi-ring 1. The upper end of the semi-ring plate 11 is connected to the top plate 8, and the lower end is connected to the bottom plate 9. For example, the semi-ring plate 11 can be connected to the top plate 8, the bottom plate 9, and the intermediate component 10 by conventional methods such as welding. The semi-ring plate 11 is coaxially arranged with the semi-ring 1. By connecting the top plate 8 and the bottom plate 9 with the semi-ring plate 11, the structural strength of the inner side of the semi-ring 1 is improved, thus providing stable support for subsequently installed equipment or structures.

[0031] Preferably, the semi-ring 1 further includes a connector 12, which is provided at the connection point of the two semi-rings 1. The connector 12 is provided with mounting holes for mounting connecting bolts 7. The upper end of the connector 12 is connected to the top plate 8, and the lower end is connected to the bottom plate 9. For example, the connector 12 can be connected to the top plate 8, the bottom plate 9, the intermediate body, and the semi-ring plate 11 by conventional methods such as welding.

[0032] In practical applications, the connector 12 is an H-shaped structural component, with a bolt hole for mounting the connecting bolt 7 on one vertical end. Compared with other structures, the H-shaped connector 12 has higher structural strength and stability, and by connecting with the top plate 8 and the bottom plate 9, a stable mounting structure for the connecting bolt 7 can be formed at the end of the semi-ring 1, which is beneficial to improving the structural strength at the connection between the two semi-rings 1.

[0033] Preferably, the column 2 is a hollow tubular structure. The upper annular assembly has a connector 13 that can be inserted into the column 2. One end of the connector 13 is located on the semi-annular body 1, and the other end has a tapered end 14 for easy insertion into the column 2. For example, the upper end of the column 2 has a flared opening to facilitate the engagement of the tapered end 14 on the connector 13. The connector 13 can be installed on the semi-annular body 1 using conventional methods such as bolts. By providing the connector 13 on the upper annular assembly and using it to engage with the column 2, the structural strength at the connection between the annular assembly and the column 2 is improved, ensuring the stability of the annular assembly when supporting equipment or components.

[0034] In practical applications, the lower annular assembly can be assembled first. Then, the column 2 is installed on the lower annular assembly via the connecting plate 3. At this point, it is not necessary to completely fix the column 2 with the fixing bolts 4; instead, the fixing bolts 4 are used to initially limit the column 2 and guide it. Afterward, the construction personnel can sequentially hoist the two semi-rings 1 of the upper annular assembly onto the column 2. During the hoisting of the semi-rings 1, even if there is an error between the column 2 and the connector 13, the column 2 can be easily aligned and assembled by using the tapered end 14 on the connector 13 to engage with the column 2 and adjusting the column 2 along the length of the slot 5. This reduces the difficulty of assembling and adjusting the column 2. Finally, the operator can connect the two upper semi-rings 1 with the connecting bolts 7 and connect the column 2 to the upper annular assembly with the fixing bolts 4, thus completing the assembly of this support device.

[0035] By using the plug-in connector 13 to connect with the column 2, and combined with the guiding effect of the strip groove 5 on the connecting plate 3 and the fixing bolt 4, when assembling this support device, the construction personnel do not need to assemble the upper ring assembly first, nor do they need to pre-install the column 2 precisely. This allows for the separate assembly and adjustment of the two semi-rings 1, reducing the difficulty of hoisting the semi-rings 1 and also reducing the difficulty of adjusting the column 2.

[0036] Preferably, the annular assembly is provided with an assembly plate 6 for mounting the fixing bolts 4, and the assembly plate 6 is provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the column 2. For example, the assembly plate 6 can be installed and fixed to the top plate 8 of the semi-annular body 1 by conventional methods such as welding, and the assembly plate 6 is provided with threaded holes for mounting the fixing bolts 4. By providing the assembly plate 6 on the annular assembly, it is beneficial to avoid damaging the overall structure of the annular assembly, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the annular assembly. In addition, the assembly plate 6 can also play a role in dispersing pressure at the connection between the column 2 and the annular assembly, which helps to further reduce the possibility of deformation of the annular assembly.

[0037] The annular multi-point support device described in this utility model has the advantages of simple structure and easy assembly and adjustment. By employing a detachable annular assembly and detachable columns, the modular design of this device is achieved, which helps reduce production and processing costs and facilitates on-site assembly by construction personnel. Furthermore, by setting strip grooves on the connecting plate, and utilizing the grooves in conjunction with fixing bolts, not only is stable assembly of the columns on the annular assembly achieved, but the grooves also provide good guidance for the columns during assembly. Operators can first install the fixing bolts, and then use the fixing bolts in conjunction with the strip grooves to guide the assembly and adjustment of the columns, reducing the difficulty of adjusting and assembling them.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
