Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Bailey bridge technology, specifically a Bailey bridge structure with shock absorption function. Background Technology
[0002] A Bailey bridge is a simple temporary walkway that can be built quickly and has a strong load-bearing capacity. Therefore, it is generally used in emergency disaster relief sites. A Bailey bridge is mainly composed of Bailey beams and distribution beams, with the distribution beams spliced onto the surface of the Bailey beams.
[0003] To prevent the distribution beam from impacting the Bailey bridge beams, causing wear and affecting the bridge's lifespan, shock-absorbing devices are typically installed between the Bailey bridge beams and the distribution beams during construction. However, when heavy vehicles or objects pass over the Bailey bridge, the shock-absorbing devices depress a greater distance, resulting in a greater rebound distance after the vehicle passes. This causes the Bailey bridge to sway from side to side, which in turn causes the shock-absorbing devices to shake, increasing the frequency of impacts between the Bailey bridge beams and the distribution beams. Consequently, this increases the probability of wear on the Bailey bridge beams and shortens its lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a Bailey bridge structure with shock absorption function, comprising: Bailey reinforced beams, wherein two sets of Bailey reinforced beams are provided, and mounting frames are welded to the upper and lower ends of the two sets of Bailey reinforced beams respectively. A shock-absorbing frame is welded between the mounting frames, and a movable groove is symmetrically opened inside the shock-absorbing frame. A spring is fixed to the inner wall of the movable groove through a connector, and a movable block is fixed to the top of the spring through a connector.

[0008] A slider is provided on the side of the second gear near the spring, and a second toothed plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one side of the slider. The second toothed plate meshes with the outer surface of the second gear.
[0009] The top of the slider is rotatably connected to a connecting rod, and the ends of the two sets of connecting rods are rotatably connected to a connecting plate.

[0016] Preferably, the mounting bracket has mounting holes extending through both ends.
[0017] This utility model provides a Bailey beam trestle structure with shock absorption function, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] This invention, by setting a first gear with a size much larger than the second gear, ensures that the moving distance of the moving block is much greater than that of the slider during shock absorption. This reduces the vertical movement distance of the distribution beam under the same buffering pressure. Consequently, after a vehicle passes and the spring rebounds, the vertical movement of the distribution beam is reduced, thus decreasing the lateral swaying force of the Bailey bridge caused by the rebound of the distribution beam. This results in a lower impact frequency between the distribution beam and the connecting frame, and also reduces the wear rate of the Bailey bridge during use, effectively extending its service life.

In actual engineering, the damping components can be equipped with dampers, silicone pads and other components according to the actual situation. The damping effect of the spring 502 can only meet a small part of the damping requirements.
[0027] This utility model provides a Bailey beam trestle bridge structure with shock absorption function, and its specific working principle is as follows:
[0028] When installing the Bailey bridge, the workers first fix the Bailey reinforcement beam 1, the mounting frame 2, and the connecting frame 3 together. Then, they take out the distribution beam 4, align the mounting slot 401 with the connecting plate 511, and splice the distribution beam 4 on top of the connecting frame 3 to form the unit component of the Bailey bridge. During the construction, the workers first take out a single unit component and place it on the bank. Then, they push the unit component and take out a new unit component to connect with the previous unit component through the pin. The above steps are repeated until the two ends of the Bailey bridge composed of unit components span the river. The construction of the Bailey bridge is then completed.
[0029] When a heavy vehicle passes over the top of the Bailey bridge, the distribution beam 4 moves downward, causing the connecting rod 510 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting rod 510 causes the slider 508 to move inside the sliding frame 506. The movement of the slider 508 causes the second toothed plate 509 to move, which in turn causes the second gear 507 to rotate. The rotation of the second gear 507 then causes the first gear 505 to rotate, which in turn causes the first toothed plate 504 to move. The movement of the first toothed plate 504 compresses the spring 502, thus achieving a shock absorption effect. This is because the first gear 505 is installed in the shock absorption mechanism... The size of the first gear is much larger than that of the second gear 507, which makes the moving distance of the moving block 503 much greater than that of the slider 508 during the shock absorption process. This reduces the vertical movement distance of the distribution beam 4 under the same buffer pressure. As a result, after the vehicle passes, the vertical movement of the distribution beam 4 is reduced after the spring 502 rebounds. This reduces the lateral swaying force of the Bailey bridge caused by the rebound of the distribution beam 4, resulting in a lower impact frequency between the distribution beam 4 and the connecting frame 3. This also reduces the wear rate of the Bailey bridge during use, effectively extending the service life of the Bailey bridge.
[0030] When a heavy vehicle passes over it, the Bailey bridge will sway from side to side. Spring 502 also has a shock absorption effect when the Bailey bridge sways from side to side, and can also reduce a small amount of swaying.
[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
