Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of communication tower technology, and in particular to a reinforcement component for a three-tube communication tower. Background Technology
[0002] Three-tube communication towers are widely used in the communications field due to their simple structure, convenient installation, and small footprint. However, with the development of communication technology, the number of devices mounted on the towers continues to increase. Furthermore, communication towers are exposed to the natural environment for extended periods, needing to withstand various external factors such as wind loads, seismic loads, and temperature changes. This leads to problems such as steel pipe deformation and loosening of connection nodes, seriously affecting the structural stability and load-bearing capacity of the communication tower, and potentially causing communication interruptions, equipment damage, and safety accidents.
[0003] Currently, existing reinforcement methods for three-tube communication towers have many shortcomings: some solutions only reinforce local nodes, resulting in limited overall reinforcement effects; some solutions employ complex welding processes, which are difficult to construct and costly; at the same time, the equipment support structure is mostly fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the weight and installation location of the equipment, which can easily lead to localized stress concentration on the tower body and accelerate structural aging.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a reinforcement structure that can comprehensively improve the stability of three-tube communication towers, reduce construction difficulty, and adapt to the equipment installation location requirements. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a reinforcing component for a three-tube communication tower, which can significantly improve the stability of the three-tube communication tower, reduce construction difficulty, and adapt to equipment installation location requirements.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a reinforcing component for a three-tube communication tower, which is installed on the outside of the three-tube tower body; the three-tube tower body is composed of multiple original tower sections connected together; the reinforcing component includes a reinforcing clamp welded part, a reinforcing angle steel and a U-bolt;
[0007] The reinforced clamp welding component is fixed to the outer wall of the original tower section by U-bolts, and the U-bolts can clamp the original tower section to prevent slippage;
[0008] The two ends of the reinforcing angle steel are respectively connected to two adjacent reinforcing clamp welded parts, so that the three reinforcing clamp welded parts and the three reinforcing angle steel form an equilateral triangle structure.
[0009] Furthermore, the reinforcing angle steel and the reinforcing clamp welded parts are detachably connected by bolts.
[0010] Furthermore, the reinforcing components are spaced apart along the height of the three-tube tower body. By loosening the U-bolts, the reinforcing position of the reinforcing components in the original tower section can be adjusted by sliding.
[0011] Furthermore, the reinforcing clamp welding component is formed by welding steel plates, and its inner wall fits into the outer wall of the original tower section.
[0012] Furthermore, anti-slip toothed pads are added to the contact area between the U-bolt and the original tower section, and an anti-slip coating is applied to the inner side of the reinforced clamp welding component.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. This utility model uses bolted reinforcing angle steel and reinforced clamp welded components to form an equilateral triangle structure. Utilizing the geometric stability of a triangle, external forces such as wind and seismic loads on the tower are evenly distributed across the three main tower pipes, significantly improving the tower's resistance to lateral bending and torsion, and reducing the risk of steel pipe deformation. The spaced reinforcing components form a continuous spatial frame structure, transforming the originally independent single-segment tower into a unified force-bearing system, reducing local stress concentration, and increasing the overall load-bearing capacity by more than 15% compared to the unreinforced state, thus adapting to the mounting requirements of more communication equipment.
[0015] 2. The bolted connection between the reinforced angle steel and the reinforced clamp welded parts does not require complex welding processes, which facilitates rapid on-site assembly and subsequent disassembly and maintenance. When a component is corroded or damaged, it can be replaced individually, reducing maintenance costs and downtime. Compared with the fully welded reinforcement solution, the bolted detachable connection reduces the risks and costs of high-altitude welding operations.
[0016] 3. The height and position of the reinforcement components can be adjusted by loosening the U-bolts, making the reinforcement scheme flexible to adapt to different tower section diameter changes, equipment installation position adjustments, and other scenarios; and the reinforcement position can be optimized so that the equipment load is evenly transferred to the entire tower body through the triangular frame, avoiding tower deformation caused by excessive local pressure and extending the service life of the equipment and tower body.

[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.
[0024] This utility model discloses a reinforcement component for a three-tube communication tower.
[0025] Referring to the figure, the reinforcing component is installed on the outside of the three-tube tower body; the three-tube tower body is composed of multiple original tower sections 1 connected together; the reinforcing component includes a reinforcing clamp welded part 2, a reinforcing angle steel 3 and a U-bolt 4;
[0026] The two legs of the U-bolt 4 are inserted into the reinforcing clamp welded component 2, and the ends of the two legs extending out of the reinforcing clamp welded component 2 are threaded with locking nuts 5. The reinforcing clamp welded component 2 is fixed to the outer wall of the original tower section 1 by the U-bolt 4, and the U-bolt 4 can clamp the original tower section 1 to prevent slippage. The two ends of the reinforcing angle steel 3 are respectively connected to the two adjacent reinforcing clamp welded components 2, so that the three reinforcing clamp welded components 2 and the three reinforcing angle steel 3 form an equilateral triangle structure. This comprehensively improves the tower's resistance to pressure, wind and deformation, effectively resists the influence of external loads, and significantly enhances the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the communication tower.
[0027] The reinforcing angle steel 3 and the reinforcing clamp welded component 2 are detachably connected by bolts. The reinforcing components are distributed at intervals along the height of the three-tube tower body. By loosening the U-bolts 4, the reinforcing position of the reinforcing components in the original tower section 1 can be adjusted. This allows the reinforcement scheme to flexibly adapt to different tower section diameter changes, equipment installation position adjustments, and other scenarios. It can also optimize the reinforcement position so that the equipment load is evenly transferred to the entire tower body through the triangular frame, avoiding tower deformation caused by excessive local pressure and extending the service life of the equipment and the tower body.
[0028] The reinforcing clamp welding component 2 is formed by welding steel plates, and its inner wall fits against the outer wall of the original tower section 1. Anti-slip toothed washers are added to the contact parts between the U-bolt 4 and the original tower section 1. The washers are made of high-strength rubber or metal serrated blades, and the inner side of the reinforcing clamp welding component 2 is coated with an anti-slip coating, such as a quartz sand epoxy coating. By increasing the friction and mechanical interlocking effect, the relative slippage between the reinforcing component and the tower body is further avoided. This is especially suitable for old communication towers with an oxide layer or slight corrosion on the tower surface.
[0029] In some embodiments, the reinforcing angle steel 3 can be constructed by sliding and telescopic connection of two sections of angle steel, and the two sections of angle steel can be locked and fixed by bolts or other locking devices, thereby adjusting the length of the reinforcing angle steel 3 and changing the side length of the reinforcing member to meet the reinforcement requirements of three-tube towers of different sizes.
[0030] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
