Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of prefabricated box culvert technology, and in particular to a prefabricated box culvert with good load-bearing capacity. Background Technology
[0002] Box culverts are a commonly used precast concrete structure in bridge, tunnel, and culvert engineering projects, offering advantages such as high load-bearing capacity and convenient construction. Precast assembled box culverts, as an innovative construction technology, possess unique advantages and promising application prospects.
[0003] In the prior art, a search revealed a Chinese patent entitled "A Prefabricated Box Culvert with Good Load-Bearing Capacity," application number "202420299828.0." This patent mainly includes: a box culvert body, with at least one integrally formed pipe interface on the side of the box culvert body communicating with the outside and the inner cavity of the box culvert; a steel mesh frame inside the box culvert body; and a foot pedal device on the side wall of the inner cavity of the box culvert body. This invention provides additional support to the foot pedal assembly by setting a support part at the bottom of the pedal assembly, with the support part, pedal assembly, and wall forming a triangular structure. While this patent provides additional support to the pedal assembly itself and ensures that even when carrying heavy tools up and down the stairs, it does not place excessive burden on the support arm, avoiding the risk of downward bending deformation or even breakage of the support arm, thus improving the stability and load-bearing capacity of the entire staircase. However, the aforementioned box culvert has through holes forming pipe connection ports. Due to the setting of pipe connection ports, the effective load-bearing cross-sectional area of the box culvert is reduced; and the lack of a reinforcing structure leads to a decrease in the bending stiffness of the box culvert top slab, forming a shear weak zone, which may cause the performance of the box culvert's load-bearing structure to deteriorate. Therefore, this utility model provides a prefabricated box culvert with good load-bearing capacity to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a prefabricated box culvert with good load-bearing capacity. A transverse support plate is embedded in the side of the box culvert near the pipe interface, and a longitudinal support plate is welded between them. Diagonal support plate steel mesh is evenly welded between the two to form a stable triangular support structure, which improves the bending and shear resistance of the box culvert at the notch, which is conducive to improving the load-bearing capacity of the box culvert and avoids the problem of load-bearing capacity reduction caused by opening through holes inside.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a prefabricated box culvert with good load-bearing capacity is provided, including a box culvert and a pipe interface on one side of the box culvert. Horizontal support plates are symmetrically embedded inside the box culvert and on the side near the pipe interface. Longitudinal support plates are fixed between the horizontal support plates. The longitudinal support plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the pipe interface. Multiple inclined support plates are evenly fixed between the horizontal and longitudinal support plates. The inclined support plates, the horizontal support plates, and the longitudinal support plates cooperate to form a triangular structure.
[0006] According to the prefabricated box culvert with good load-bearing capacity, the transverse support plate is a corrugated steel plate, and the longitudinal support plate and the diagonal support plate are both steel mesh.

[0009] According to the prefabricated box culvert with good load-bearing capacity, the top side of the box culvert is symmetrically provided with grooves, and the grooves are provided with lifting rings.
[0010] According to the prefabricated box culvert with good load-bearing capacity, both sides of the box culvert are fixed with sealing waterstops, and the sealing waterstops are made of rubber.
[0011] According to the prefabricated box culvert with good load-bearing capacity, the bottom of the box culvert is provided with a cushion layer, and the cushion layer is designed with a trapezoidal structure.
[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. Compared with existing technologies, a transverse support plate is embedded on the side of the box culvert near the pipe interface, and a longitudinal support plate is welded between them.

A longitudinal support plate 4 is fixed between the transverse support plates 3. The longitudinal support plates 4 are symmetrically located on both sides of the pipe interface 2. A plurality of oblique support plates 5 are evenly fixed between the transverse support plates 3 and the longitudinal support plates 4. The oblique support plates 5, the transverse support plates 3 and the longitudinal support plates 4 cooperate to form a triangular structure.
[0024] A transverse support plate 3 is embedded inside the box culvert 1 on the side near the pipe interface 2, and a longitudinal support plate 4 is welded between them. An inclined support plate 5 steel mesh is evenly welded between the two to form a stable triangular support structure. This improves the bending and shear resistance of the box culvert 1 at the notch, which helps to improve the load-bearing capacity of the box culvert 1 and avoids the problem of reduced load-bearing capacity caused by opening through holes inside.
[0025] The transverse support plate 3 is a corrugated steel plate, while the longitudinal support plate 4 and the diagonal support plate 5 are both steel mesh.
