Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bridge structure technology, and in particular relates to a pedestrian bridge viewing platform structure that combines a canopy and an elevator. Background Technology

[0002] Pedestrian bridges highlight a city's character and play a vital role in urban development. They are often installed in the city's core areas and along rivers and lakes with scenic value. As living standards improve, pedestrian needs are increasing. Scenic pedestrian bridges not only need basic passage and aesthetic appeal but have also evolved into points of interest for sightseeing, leisure, and taking photos. Furthermore, they emphasize humanistic considerations, thus requiring pedestrian bridges to meet various needs such as providing views and recreation, shade and shelter from rain, and the addition of elevators.

[0003] Pedestrian bridges can be shaded by installing canopies, which are often constructed using steel structures combined with acrylic panels or steel plates. However, these materials are difficult to shape, resulting in canopies with monotonous and unappealing designs. To fulfill the functions of sightseeing and leisure, and to reflect humanistic care, large platforms with elevators are needed within the bridge. However, such pedestrian bridges are relatively rare. To meet these functions, a pedestrian bridge viewing platform structure combining a canopy and an elevator is proposed. Utility Model Content

The middle of the platform is hollowed out and a set of escalators is installed. The bottom of the escalators is supported by the bridge abutment, and the bottom of the V-shaped columns is supported by the foundation. The top is connected to the canopy structure to form a stable large triangular structure, and the middle is connected to the platform to form a stable small triangular structure. The outer decoration is connected to the canopy structure, V-shaped columns, main beam and platform to form an integral whole.

[0006] The preferred technical solution of this utility model is that the V-shaped column is composed of a first steel column inclined to the left and a second steel column inclined to the right. Two sets of V-shaped columns are arranged in parallel along the transverse side of the platform and continuously penetrate the platform. The first steel column and the second steel column are variable diameter columns that change along the height. Overall, the diameter of the steel column gradually decreases from the bottom to the top.

[0007] The preferred technical solution of this utility model is that the platform includes a box chamber, a first crossbeam, and a second crossbeam. The box chambers are arranged on the left and right sides of the platform in a U-shape, with their bases connected to the main beam. The first and second crossbeams are located at the intersection of the V-shaped column and the box chamber. The rectangular space enclosed by the first crossbeam, the second crossbeam, and the box chamber is hollowed out to serve as the installation location for the escalator.

[0008] The preferred technical solution of this utility model is that the ceiling structure is composed of longitudinal and transverse square steel tubes, and its four corner points are connected to the top of the V-shaped column to form an integral whole and serve as a support for the external decoration.

[0009] The preferred technical solution of this utility model is that the exterior decoration is a spatial curved truss structure, which includes flange decoration and top cover decoration. The flange decoration is fixed on both sides of the main beam and has a C-shaped cross-section. The flange decoration extends upward in a wave-like manner along the length of the main beam and connects with the top cover decoration fixed on the ceiling structure to form a whole. The top cover decoration is spindle-shaped in plane. The flange decoration and the top cover decoration are bird-shaped on the pedestrian bridge facade.

[0010] The preferred technical solution of this utility model is that the flange decoration and the top cover decoration are both composed of a keel frame, foamed ceramic and a coating layer. The foamed ceramic is fixed to the surface of the keel frame with screws, the gaps of the foamed ceramic are sealed with colloid, and the coating layer is used to fill or level the surface of the foamed ceramic and form a durable coating.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The pedestrian bridge viewing platform structure, combined with the roof and elevator, features two sets of V-shaped columns whose tops and middle sections connect to the roof structure and platform, forming two stable triangular structures of varying sizes. These V-shaped columns also laterally constrain the two sets, connecting them into a unified whole. Simultaneously, the platform connects to the main beam, ensuring the structure's rationality and stability. The platform compartments are arranged in a U-shape, with a central hollowed-out section providing installation and support for the escalator, improving pedestrian access conditions. The two sets of V-shaped columns extend the length of the platform and roof, resulting in a larger platform and sunshade roof, providing pedestrians with a spacious and comfortable viewing area. The use of a small-sized keel frame facilitates the fabrication of complex frameworks, serving as the rough finishing of the exterior decorative outline; lightweight and easily shaped foamed ceramics can be finely polished, combined with filling or leveling in the coating layer, serving as the finishing of the exterior decorative outline. This decorative system allows for the creation of a more dynamic and spatially varied exterior decoration, giving the platform structure greater aesthetic appeal and diversity.

The middle of the platform 3 is hollowed out and a set of escalators 8 is installed. The bottom of the escalators 8 is supported by the bridge abutment 7, and the bottom of the V-shaped columns 2 is supported by the foundation 1. The top is connected to the canopy structure 5 to form a stable large triangular structure, and the middle is connected to the platform 3 to form a stable small triangular structure. The outer decoration 6 is connected to the canopy structure 5, the V-shaped columns 2, the main beam 4 and the platform 3 to form an integral whole.The top and middle sections of the two sets of V-shaped columns 2 are connected to the ceiling structure 5 and platform 3 respectively, forming two stable triangular structures of different sizes. These structures also laterally constrain the two sets of V-shaped columns 2, connecting them into a whole. Simultaneously, platform 3 is connected to the main beam 4, ensuring the rationality and stability of the overall structure. Platform 3 uses a U-shaped hollow structure to provide installation and support positions for the escalator 8. The V-shaped columns 2 consist of a first steel column 21 tilted to the left and a second steel column 22 tilted to the right. Two sets of V-shaped columns 2 are arranged horizontally parallel to platform 3 and continuously penetrate it. The first steel column 21 and the second steel column 22 are variable-diameter columns that change with height; the diameter of the steel columns gradually decreases from the bottom to the top. The two sets of V-shaped columns 2 extend platform 3 and... The length of the canopy structure 5 is adjusted to obtain a larger platform 3 and canopy structure 5. The platform 3 includes a box chamber 9, a first crossbeam 31, and a second crossbeam 32. The box chamber 9 is arranged on the left and right sides of the platform in a U-shape in plan, and its base is connected to the main beam 4. The first crossbeam 31 and the second crossbeam 32 are located at the intersection of the V-shaped column 2 and the box chamber 9. The rectangular space enclosed by the first crossbeam 31, the second crossbeam 32, and the box chamber 9 is hollowed out to serve as the installation position for the escalator 8. The rectangular frame formed by the box chamber 9, the first crossbeam 31, and the second crossbeam 32 provides lateral and longitudinal double constraints to the middle of the two sets of V-shaped columns 2, enhancing the structural stability of the V-shaped columns 2. The canopy structure 5 is composed of longitudinal and transverse square steel tubes 51. The four corner points connect to the top of the V-shaped columns to form a whole and serve as the support for the outer decoration 6. The canopy structure 5 also constrains the tops of the two sets of V-shaped columns 2 from both the horizontal and vertical directions, further enhancing the structural stability of the V-shaped columns 2. The outer decoration 6 is a spatial curved truss structure, which includes flange decoration 61 and top cover decoration 62. The flange decoration 61 is fixed to both sides of the main beam 4 and has a varying C-shaped cross-section. The flange decoration 61 extends upward in a wave-like pattern along the length of the main beam 4 and connects to the top cover decoration 62 fixed to the canopy structure 5 to form a whole. The top cover decoration 62 is spindle-shaped in plan. The flange decoration 61 and the top cover decoration 62 form a bird shape on the pedestrian bridge facade. The outer decoration 6 decorates the canopy structure 5 through its spatial curved shape, giving it a unique appearance. Aesthetic appeal: Both the flange decoration 61 and the top cover decoration 62 are composed of a frame 63, foamed ceramics 64, and a coating layer 65. The foamed ceramics 64 are fixed to the surface of the frame 63 with screws 66. The gaps between the foamed ceramics 64 are sealed with colloid. The coating layer 65 fills or levels the surface of the foamed ceramics 64 and forms a durable coating. The small-sized frame 63 makes it easy to process complex frames, serving as the rough processing of the outline of the outer decoration 6. The lightweight and easily shaped foamed ceramics 64 can be finely polished or combined with the filling and leveling of the coating layer 65, serving as the fine processing of the outline of the outer decoration 6. Through this decorative system, a more dynamic and spatially curved outer decoration 6 can be created, giving the structure more aesthetic appeal and diversity.
