Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of ice building construction technology, specifically relating to an ice table structure with high load-bearing capacity. Background Technology
[0002] Existing ice structures are all formed through masonry and then illuminated to create unique scenery for tourists to visit and enjoy, thus boosting tourism. They primarily showcase artistic value and are mostly purely for viewing. However, the limited load-bearing capacity of ice greatly restricts the span, height, and strength of ice structures, also affecting their practicality. For example, many ice tables in ice complexes are only for viewing and cannot hold objects. Because traditional ice tables have limited surface strength, excessive pressure on a single point can easily cause them to break. This necessitates the addition of long tables within the scenic area to display exhibits, but the introduction of these long tables significantly detracts from the overall aesthetics and visual appeal of the ice complex. Therefore, developing a high-load-bearing ice table structure that allows tourists to both view and rest is a practical necessity. Utility Model Content

[0004] An ice table structure with high load-bearing capacity includes a reinforced ice table unit and two ice table legs. The two ice table legs are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the reinforced ice table unit along the center line of the length direction of the reinforced ice table unit, and the top of each ice table leg is fixedly connected to the bottom of the reinforced ice table unit.
[0005] The reinforced ice table unit includes N ice table blocks, N-1 filling plates, and reinforcing components. The N ice table blocks are arranged equidistantly along the length of the reinforced ice table unit. A filling plate is provided between two adjacent ice table blocks. The N ice table blocks are connected by N-1 filling plates to form the ice table. The reinforcing components are embedded in the ice table to improve the load-bearing capacity of the ice table.
[0006] Furthermore, the reinforcing component includes Z plexiglass ribs, where Z is a positive integer. The bottom of the ice table is sequentially machined with Z mounting grooves along the width of the ice table. Each plexiglass rib is embedded in a mounting groove and fixed to the ice table by ice sealing.
[0007] Furthermore, the value of N can range from 2 to 6;
[0008] Furthermore, the value of Z can range from 5 to 8;

[0010] Furthermore, the length of the reinforced ice tabletop unit is greater than or equal to 1200mm, and the width of the reinforced ice tabletop unit is greater than or equal to 400mm;
[0011] Furthermore, the height of the ice table legs is greater than or equal to 580mm, and the length of the ice table legs along the span of the tabletop is greater than or equal to 230mm;
[0012] Furthermore, the ice tabletop unit is 200mm-400mm wider than the ice table legs;
[0013] Furthermore, the ice table legs are prism-shaped ice bodies with a rectangular cross-section, and the two ice table legs are set near the center of the bottom of the reinforced ice table unit, with the ice table having a cantilever length of 200mm-1000mm on each side;
[0014] Furthermore, the ice table legs are prismatic ice bodies with a T-shaped cross-section, and the two ice table legs are set at both ends near the bottom of the reinforced ice table unit, with each side of the ice table having a cantilever length of 100mm-200mm.

[0027] Specific implementation method one: Combining Figures 1 to 9 This embodiment describes an ice table structure with high load-bearing capacity. The ice table structure includes a reinforced ice table unit and two ice table legs 3. The two ice table legs 3 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the reinforced ice table unit along the center line of the length direction of the reinforced ice table unit, and the top of each ice table leg 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the reinforced ice table unit.
[0028] The reinforced ice table unit includes N ice table blocks 1, N-1 filling plates 4, and reinforcing components. The N ice table blocks 1 are arranged equidistantly along the length of the reinforced ice table unit. A filling plate 4 is provided between two adjacent ice table blocks. The N ice table blocks are connected by N-1 filling plates 4 to form an ice table. The reinforcing components are embedded in the ice table to improve the load-bearing capacity of the ice table.
[0029] Specific Implementation Method Two: Combining Figures 1 to 9 This embodiment differs from specific embodiment one in that the reinforcing component includes Z plexiglass ribs 2, where Z is a positive integer. Z embedding grooves 5 are sequentially machined along the width of the ice tabletop at its bottom. Each plexiglass rib 2 is embedded in one embedding groove 5 and fixed to the ice tabletop by ice sealing. Other components and connection methods are the same as in specific embodiment one.
[0030] Specific implementation method three: Combining Figures 1 to 9 This embodiment differs from Specific Embodiment Two in that the value of N ranges from 2 to 6. Other components and connections are the same as in Specific Embodiment Two.
[0031] Specific implementation method four: Combining Figures 1 to 9This embodiment differs from Specific Embodiment Three in that the value of Z ranges from 5 to 8. Other components and connection methods are the same as in Specific Embodiment Three.
[0032] Based on the descriptions of specific embodiments one through four, the ice table structure provided in this application, compared to traditional ice table structures, incorporates acrylic glass reinforcing bars 2 within the ice tabletop. These reinforcing bars 2 increase the overall bending strength and load-bearing capacity of the ice tabletop, thereby increasing the span of the ice blocks and realizing the transformation from a structure to a building, thus meeting functional requirements. Furthermore, the filling plate 4 used in this application is also an ice plate structure. Through the freezing process with cold water, adjacent ice table blocks are fixed during freezing. Since the filling plate 4 is an ice plate and the acrylic glass reinforcing bars 2 are also made of transparent material, the ice table structure provided in this application still appears as a pure ice structure. This increases the strength of the ice structure while retaining the aesthetic appeal of the ice table / ice bench structure. Through research on embedding acrylic glass reinforcing bars into ice blocks, this application summarizes convenient construction techniques and the extent to which reinforcing bars improve the load-bearing capacity of ice blocks. Depending on the occasion, different amounts of plexiglass reinforcement are added to the ice tables, which improves their load-bearing capacity and meets their functional requirements. This makes them not only aesthetically pleasing but also practically useful, greatly improving their overall economic benefits. Through the research and development of this application, all the exhibition table structures in the ice architecture exhibition area can be replaced with ice tables, which further ensures the integrity of the ice architecture complex from an aesthetic perspective and enhances the viewing experience for visitors.

[0037] In conjunction with the descriptions of specific implementation methods five to eight, the above parameters are derived based on the dimensions of the display tables used by people for rest. Considering that there is a necessary relationship between the load-bearing capacity of the ice table block and its thickness, the corresponding dimensions of the ice table legs are determined in conjunction with the total height of the ice table to ensure the stability of the ice table during use.

[0042] Working principle:
[0043] The ice table structure provided in this application is manufactured by first determining the size of the ice table, then determining the number of ice blocks based on the size of the ice table, and then embedding plexiglass ribs into the ice blocks by cutting them, which greatly improves the load-bearing capacity of the ice blocks to meet the functional requirements. The gaps around the embedded plexiglass ribs are filled with ice chips, and then ice water is poured to be flush with the surface of the ice blocks. Finally, it is frozen, thus completing the manufacture of a single ice bench module. The frozen ice tabletop is flipped and placed on the ice table legs, so that the plexiglass ribs are in a tensioned position, thereby assembling into a functional ice bench. The gaps between the ice tabletops are about 10mm, which are filled with ice chips and then ice water is poured to connect the different ice tabletops into a whole.
