Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of ice building construction technology, specifically relating to an organic glass reinforced ice beam structure. Background Technology

[0002] In modern architecture and landscape engineering, ice structures (such as ice sculptures, ice bridges, and ice sculpture exhibitions) are frequently used in winter landscapes in cold regions, especially in Northeast China. Ice, as a natural resource, is often chosen as a building and landscape decoration material due to its plasticity, transparency, and visual appeal. However, the fragility and low strength of ice limit its widespread use in structural applications.

[0003] Ice is a crystalline material with high brittleness. Due to the unique nature of its internal molecular structure, it possesses low compressive, tensile, and flexural strength, making it prone to brittle fracture under stress and lacking sufficient toughness to resist external pressure or temperature changes. This results in traditional ice sculptures or ice architecture failing to achieve the load-bearing capacity and stability required for engineering structures. In particular, the supporting structures such as beams in ice architecture require reinforcement and support from steel reinforcement during construction. However, ice itself is highly humid, and the steel reinforcement will rust and corrode under the influence of moisture during long-term service, severely affecting the stability and durability of the ice beam structure. Therefore, developing an acrylic glass reinforced ice beam structure to improve the supporting strength and service life of ice architecture is in line with practical needs. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model aims to solve the problem that the ice beam structure in existing ice buildings needs to be reinforced with steel bars during use. However, steel bars are prone to rust and corrosion in damp and cold environments, which seriously affects the stability and durability of the ice structure. Therefore, it provides an organic glass reinforced ice beam structure.

[0005] An acrylic glass-reinforced ice beam structure includes acrylic glass reinforcing connectors and N ice beam blocks, where N is a positive integer greater than 2. The N ice beam blocks are arranged sequentially along the length of the ice beam structure. The acrylic glass reinforcing connectors are embedded in the N ice beam blocks and fixed to the ice beam blocks by filling components.

[0006] Furthermore, the acrylic glass reinforcing connection component includes Z acrylic glass reinforcing sheets, where Z is a positive integer. The Z acrylic glass reinforcing sheets are arranged equidistantly in N ice beam blocks along the width direction of the ice beam structure, and each acrylic glass reinforcing sheet is fixed to multiple ice beam blocks by an infill component.

[0007] Furthermore, the filling component includes Z ice-condensing layers, each ice-condensing layer is correspondingly set with one plexiglass rib, and each plexiglass rib is fixed to N ice beams by an ice-condensing layer;

[0008] Furthermore, each ice beam block has an inlay groove machined at its bottom along the length of the ice beam structure, and each inlay groove is matched with a corresponding plexiglass rib.

[0009] Furthermore, the acrylic rib is a rectangular sheet, and each end of the acrylic rib has an acrylic rib buckle at its bottom. Each acrylic rib buckle is integrally formed with the acrylic rib. The two recessed grooves at the ends of the ice beam structure are machined with matching snaps to the acrylic rib buckles.

[0010] Furthermore, the ice layer is filled in the corresponding mounting groove, and the bottom of the ice layer is set on the same plane as the bottom of the ice beam block;

[0011] Furthermore, the value of N ranges from 2 to 4;

[0012] Furthermore, the value of Z ranges from 1 to 5.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this application compared to the prior art are:

[0014] This application provides an acrylic glass-reinforced ice beam structure. Compared to traditional ice beam structures, this design integrates the reinforcing components into the main body of the ice beam, concealing the previously exposed reinforcement within the ice. This ensures the overall aesthetics and transparency of the ice beam structure. Furthermore, considering the susceptibility of steel reinforcement to rust and corrosion in cold and damp working environments, this application optimizes the internal reinforcement structure into acrylic glass reinforcement. Acrylic glass reinforcement possesses high tensile strength and rigidity, effectively distributing external loads and preventing brittle fracture of the ice. Traditional ice sculpture structures are prone to cracking or breakage due to the brittleness and low strength of ice itself. This patent, by embedding acrylic glass reinforcement within the ice beam, effectively improves the ice's compressive, tensile, and bending resistance, enhancing the overall structural load-bearing capacity. This reinforcement not only solves the strength problem of traditional ice sculpture structures but also improves the crack resistance of the ice beam, reducing the risk of breakage due to uneven stress or external impact. This broadens the application range of ice materials and ice structures. Furthermore, the plexiglass reinforcement structure is stable and will not rust or corrode. Using plexiglass reinforcement to replace steel reinforcement as a strengthening component also helps to improve the service life of ice beam structures. Attached Figure Description

[0020] Specific implementation method one: Combining Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment describes an plexiglass reinforced ice beam structure. The ice beam structure includes plexiglass reinforced connecting components and N ice beam blocks 1, where N is a positive integer greater than 2. The N ice beam blocks 1 are arranged sequentially along the length of the ice beam structure. The plexiglass reinforced connecting components are embedded in the N ice beam blocks 1 and are fixed to the ice beam blocks 1 by filling components.

[0021] Specific Implementation Method Two: Combining Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment differs from specific embodiment one in that the plexiglass reinforcing connection assembly includes Z plexiglass reinforcing sheets 2, where Z is a positive integer. These Z plexiglass reinforcing sheets 2 are arranged equidistantly along the width of the ice beam structure within N ice beam blocks 1, and each plexiglass reinforcing sheet 2 is fixed to multiple ice beam blocks 1 by a filling component. Other components and connection methods are the same as in specific embodiment one.

[0022] Specific implementation method three: Combining Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment differs from Specific Embodiment Two in that the filling component includes Z ice-condensing layers 3, each ice-condensing layer 3 corresponding to one plexiglass reinforcing sheet 2, and each plexiglass reinforcing sheet 2 is fixed to N ice beams 1 by an ice-condensing layer 3. Other components and connection methods are the same as in Specific Embodiment Two.

[0023] Specific implementation method four: Combining Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment differs from Specific Embodiment Three in that each ice beam block 1 has an inlay groove 5 machined at its bottom along the length of the ice beam structure, and each inlay groove 5 is correspondingly fitted with an acrylic rib 2. Other components and connection methods are the same as in Specific Embodiment Three.

[0024] The following description, based on specific embodiments one through four, demonstrates how this application utilizes the structural characteristics of acrylic glass reinforcing bars to embed them within the ice beam structure. This enhances the overall bending strength and load-bearing capacity of the ice beam structure. The acrylic glass reinforcing bars possess a transparency similar to ice, ensuring light transmission and maintaining the ice structure's natural luster and aesthetic appeal. This avoids problems such as uneven light reflection that can occur with materials like reinforcing steel, resulting in a consistently clear and transparent effect after reinforcement. It also avoids the aesthetic impact of exposed reinforcing steel or fiber materials in traditional structures. Furthermore, since reinforcing steel is prone to corrosion in cold environments, long-term use can affect the stability and durability of the ice structure. This patent avoids the aesthetic problem caused by reinforcing steel by using acrylic glass reinforcing bars, and because acrylic glass reinforcing bars do not corrode at low temperatures, they provide more durable structural support. The ice-condensing layer 3, a mixture of ice chips and water, fills the gaps in the embedding grooves 5 after the acrylic glass reinforcing bar 2 is implanted, and also serves to fix the acrylic glass reinforcing bar 2, ensuring a stable connection between it and the ice beam block 1.

[0025] Specific implementation method five: Combining Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment differs from Specific Embodiment Four in that the acrylic rib sheet 2 is a rectangular sheet, and each end of the acrylic rib sheet 2 has an acrylic rib clip 4, which is integrally formed with the acrylic rib sheet 2. The two end-mounted grooves 5 in the ice beam structure are machined with mating slots for the acrylic rib clips 4. Other components and connection methods are the same as in Specific Embodiment Four.

[0026] In this embodiment, the acrylic reinforcement clips 4 are used to anchor the acrylic reinforcement in the ice structure, ensuring the reinforcement is firmly fixed, preventing displacement and detachment, and enhancing structural stability. Under load, the clips help distribute the load evenly throughout the entire structure of the lintel, rather than concentrating it at a single point. In environments with large temperature fluctuations, the expansion and contraction of the ice and acrylic reinforcement may differ; the clips provide adequate space to ensure that the connection between the reinforcement and the ice is not damaged by temperature changes.

[0027] Specific implementation method six: Combining Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment differs from specific embodiment five in that the ice-condensing layer 3 is filled in the corresponding mounting groove 5, and the bottom of the ice-condensing layer 3 is coplanar with the bottom of the ice beam block 1. Other components and connection methods are the same as in specific embodiment five.

[0028] Specific implementation method seven: Combining Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment differs from Specific Embodiment Six in that the value of N ranges from 2 to 4. Other components and connections are the same as in Specific Embodiment Six.

[0029] Specific implementation method eight: Combining Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment differs from Specific Embodiment Seven in that the value of Z ranges from 1 to 5. Other components and connections are the same as in Specific Embodiment Seven.

[0030] The present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, but it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed structure and technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0031] Working principle:

[0032] The plexiglass ribbed ice beam structure provided in this application is constructed in the following manner:

[0033] First, the mined ice blocks are cut into ice beams 1 according to size. After multiple ice beams are joined together, lines are drawn at the designated rebar installation area to determine the slotting position and accurately place the rebar.

[0034] Second: Cut grooves according to the marked positions. Use tools to cut along the marked lines to ensure that the width, depth and position of the groove meet the design requirements. After cutting the groove, clean the ice chips and impurities in the groove. You can use a broom or air gun to clean it to ensure that the groove is clean and to provide a good base for subsequent reinforcement.

[0035] Third: After slotting, place the selected acrylic reinforcement 2 into the pre-cut mounting groove 5. After the reinforcement is laid, there will be a certain area filled with ice-water mixture and acrylic reinforcement in the groove. Ensure that the clips 4 at both ends of the reinforcement can fit tightly with the groove and will not shift or loosen. Use measuring tools to confirm the position and direction of the reinforcement, ensuring that the reinforcement is evenly distributed in the groove and meets the design spacing and direction requirements.

[0036] Fourth: After arranging the acrylic glass reinforcing strips 2, backfill with ice chips and prepare an appropriate amount of ice-water mixture to fill the groove and form an ice-freezing layer 3. Ensure the filled ice blocks can solidify quickly and have sufficient strength and stability. Slowly pour the ice-water mixture into the groove opening, ensuring the filler completely covers the acrylic glass reinforcing strips and secures them within the groove. During filling, ensure the ice-water mixture does not overflow the groove opening and is filled evenly. Gently press the groove opening to ensure the filler is evenly distributed and without gaps. Ensure the acrylic glass reinforcing strips are firmly encased in the filler.

[0037] Fifth: After filling, let the ice lintel stand for 12 hours to ensure the ice-water mixture fully solidifies and forms a tight bond with the acrylic reinforcement. During this period, maintain a suitable temperature to ensure the structural stability of the ice lintel. After 12 hours, check that the acrylic reinforcement is firmly fixed in the groove and that there is no loosening or displacement. If any problems are found, adjust or reinforce it promptly. After the ice-water mixture has solidified, carefully turn the ice lintel over to check its integrity and stability. Avoid excessive impact during the turning process to ensure the ice lintel is not damaged. Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the reinforcement and structure of the lintel to confirm that the position and stability of the reinforcement and the overall strength of the lintel meet the design requirements. Ensure that the surface of the lintel is flat and aesthetically pleasing, without any cracks or damage, and that the transparency and aesthetics of the lintel are maintained.

[0038] This application uses acrylic glass reinforcement as the reinforcing material and proposes a snap-lock anchoring design in its structural form. Compared with traditional steel bars or fiber-reinforced materials, acrylic glass reinforcement has stronger transparency, cold resistance, and lighter weight. The snap-lock fixing method makes the reinforcement more stable and less prone to loosening, improving the load-bearing capacity and safety of the lintel, while also greatly simplifying the construction process and improving production efficiency. Its unique structural form makes its arrangement in ice lintels more aesthetically pleasing, stable, and with sufficient load-bearing capacity.

[0039] By employing a grooved reinforcement method, acrylic reinforcement bars are precisely placed into the ice block and filled with an ice-water mixture. This ensures a firm bond between the reinforcement bars and the ice block, maintaining the stability and strength of the overall structure. This effectively avoids potential breakage or deformation problems that may occur with ice lintels.

[0040] Ice, as a natural material, possesses high environmental compatibility. Combined with acrylic glass reinforcement, it ensures both structural safety and a unique aesthetic appeal. This gives ice lintels excellent environmental adaptability; their performance remains unaffected by material degradation in low-temperature environments. Furthermore, their transparent and smooth appearance makes them suitable for various artistic and landscape designs, offering significant advantages, especially in winter or cold regions. Through the implementation of these technologies, the practicality and aesthetic appeal of ice lintels have been effectively enhanced, demonstrating significant application potential.
