Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wind resistance technology in bridge construction, and in particular to a cable-stayed bridge construction wind-resistant and vibration-damping device. Background Technology

[0002] After the steel truss girder of the suspension bridge begins to be hoisted, the dead load in the mid-span gradually increases, causing the tower to shift towards the mid-span and generate a large eccentric bending moment. Therefore, it is necessary to pre-shift the main cable saddle towards the side span. Since the main tower of the suspension bridge currently consists of a steel tower, taking advantage of the relatively flexible stiffness of the steel tower, pre-tensioning of the steel tower is considered to reduce the pre-shifting amount of the main cable saddle. At this time, precast cables can be used as pre-shifting cables to pre-shift the main tower towards the side span.

[0003] However, in actual use, the pre-deflecting cable is affected by strong winds and heavy rains, causing it to deflect and vibrate. It is prone to collisions and conflicts with existing facilities (such as catwalk systems), thus affecting construction safety. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where pre-deflection cables are easily affected by strong winds and heavy rains, causing deflection vibrations. This invention proposes a wind-resistant and vibration-damping device for suspension bridge construction cables.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model provides a wind-resistant and vibration-damping device for cable-stayed bridge construction. The vibration-damping device is installed on the connecting beam of the catwalk system, and the connecting beam is installed on the catwalk load-bearing cable in the catwalk system. The device includes:

[0007] A frame, the interior of which is provided with a square through hole;

[0008] Multiple vibration damping components are disposed in the square through holes of the frame. The multiple vibration damping components are arranged in a ring array. The ends of the multiple vibration damping components that are far apart from each other are respectively connected to the inner wall of the square through holes of the frame. The vibration damping components are used to resist wind and damping of the cable.

[0009] The locking clip is disposed inside the square through hole of the frame. The locking clip is sleeve-shaped, and the outside of the locking clip is connected to the close ends of the plurality of vibration damping components.

[0010] The cable is installed inside the locking clamp.

[0011] In some feasible solutions, the vibration damping component includes:

[0012] A first connector is disposed on the outside of the locking clamp and is connected to the outside of the locking clamp;

[0013] A vibration damping spring, one end of which is connected to the locking clamp via the first connector;

[0014] The hinge has one end fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the square through hole of the frame, and the other end of the hinge is connected to the other end of the vibration damping spring. The hinge is used to cooperate with the vibration damping spring to perform multi-directional wind resistance and vibration damping.

[0015] In some feasible solutions, the hinge portion includes:

[0016] The second connecting rod has one end connected to the square through hole of the frame, and the other end of the second connecting rod is provided with a second connector, which is in the shape of a spherical groove.

[0017] The first connecting rod has one end connected to the damping spring away from the locking clamp, and the other end of the first connecting rod is spherical. The first connecting rod is hinged to the spherical groove of the second connecting head through the spherical end.

[0018] In some feasible solutions, the second connecting rod and the second connecting head are integrally formed.

[0019] In some feasible solutions, the vibration damping spring and the second connecting rod are integrally formed.

[0020] In some feasible solutions, the vibration damping device further includes:

[0021] A sleeve, which is fitted over the outside of the damping spring.

[0022] In some feasible solutions, the sleeve is a double-layered stainless steel sleeve.

[0023] In some feasible solutions, the inner layer of the sleeve is coated with PTFE, and the double-layer stainless steel sleeve of the sleeve is filled with nitrogen.

[0024] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0025] This invention first fixes the frame, then uses multiple vibration damping components to wind-resistant and vibration-dampingly protect the cable within the locking clamp, effectively ensuring stable installation. This effectively solves the problem of existing technologies where pre-deflecting cables are easily affected by strong winds and heavy rain, causing deflection and vibration. Furthermore, it avoids collisions and interference with existing catwalks. Attached Figure Description

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 3 In this embodiment, to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where pre-deflection cables are easily affected by strong winds and heavy rains, causing deflection vibrations, this utility model provides a wind-resistant and vibration-damping device for suspension bridge construction cables. The vibration-damping device is installed on the connecting beam 5. By installing the vibration-damping device on the connecting beam 5, the position of the pre-deflection cable is limited and fixed, preventing collisions and interference between the pre-deflection cable and existing structures (such as the catwalk system 6, connecting beam 5, etc.). Simultaneously, the vibration-damping device provides wind-resistant and vibration-damping protection for the pre-deflection cable. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The vibration damping device is installed on the connecting beam 5 of the catwalk system, and the connecting beam 5 is installed on the catwalk load-bearing cable. The vibration damping device limits the pre-deflection cable to the connecting beam 5 in the catwalk system, fixing the relative position of the pre-deflection cable to the catwalk system and preventing collisions between the pre-deflection cable and existing structures in the catwalk system. Specifically, the vibration damping device includes: a frame 1, a locking clamp 3, and multiple vibration damping components 4. The frame 1 is square, and its interior has square through holes. The frame 1 can be fixedly connected to the construction bridge deck. Multiple vibration damping components 4 are disposed within the square through holes of the frame 1, arranged in a circular array. The ends of the multiple vibration damping components that are furthest from each other are connected to the inner wall of the square through holes of the frame 1. The vibration damping components 4 are used to resist wind and vibration of the cable 2. The locking clip 3 is disposed inside the square through hole of the frame 1. The locking clip 3 is sleeve-shaped, and its exterior is connected to the adjacent ends of the plurality of vibration damping components 4. The cable 2 is inserted inside the locking clip 3. That is, in this embodiment, the frame 1 is first fixed, and then the cable 2 inside the locking clip 3 is used to resist wind and vibration by the plurality of vibration damping components 4, effectively ensuring that the cable 2 can be installed stably. This effectively solves the shortcomings of the prior art where the pre-deflection cable is easily affected by strong winds and heavy rain, causing deflection vibration. It also avoids collision and interference with the existing catwalk.

[0039] In this embodiment, to facilitate understanding of how the vibration damping component 4 is used to dampen the cable 2 inside the clamp 3, and for ease of description, an example of the vibration damping component 4 is provided. Specifically, the vibration damping component 4 includes: a first connector 41, a vibration damping spring 42, and a hinge. The first connector 41 is disposed on the outside of the clamp 3 and is hingedly connected to the outside of the clamp 3. One end of the vibration damping spring 42 is connected to the first connector 41, that is, one end of the vibration damping spring 42 is connected to the clamp 3 through the first connector 41. One end of the hinge is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the square through hole of the frame 1, and the other end of the hinge is connected to the other end of the vibration damping spring 42. The hinge is used to cooperate with the vibration damping spring 42 to perform multi-directional wind damping, so as to ensure that winds blowing from different directions can be damped by the vibration damping spring 42.

[0040] Reference Figure 2 In this embodiment, the hinged part includes a first connecting rod 43 and a second connecting rod 44. One end of the second connecting rod 44 is connected to the square through hole of the frame 1, and the other end of the second connecting rod 44 is provided with a second connecting head 441, which is shaped like a spherical groove. One end of the first connecting rod 43 is connected to the vibration damping spring 42 away from the locking clip 3, and the other end of the first connecting rod 43 is spherical. The first connecting rod 43 is hinged to the spherical groove of the second connecting head 441 through the spherical end. That is, in this embodiment, the vibration damping spring 42 is hinged to the spherical groove of the second connecting rod 44 through the spherical end of the first connecting rod 43, so as to realize that the vibration damping spring 42 can be used to resist wind and damping from different directions. In this embodiment, in order to ensure the wind resistance and vibration damping effect, the second connecting rod 44 and the second connecting head 441 are integrally formed, and the vibration damping spring 42 and the second connecting rod 44 are integrally formed.

[0041] In one feasible embodiment, to ensure the lifespan of the vibration damping spring 42 under different weather conditions, the vibration damping device further includes a sleeve (not shown in the figure), which is fitted over the outside of the vibration damping spring 42. Preferably, the sleeve is a double-layer stainless steel sleeve, the inner layer of which is coated with PTFE, and the double-layer stainless steel sleeve is filled with nitrogen. This protects the performance of the vibration damping spring 42 and also makes it moisture-proof and salt spray-resistant, effectively extending its service life.

[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
