Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bridge displacement expansion joints, specifically a modular multidirectional displacement expansion joint for bridges. Background Technology
[0002] Existing bridge expansion joints mostly employ on-site welding and assembly, with no pre-set spacing between modules, requiring individual support positioning, resulting in low installation efficiency. The positioning of holes in the steel and rubber plates relies on on-site drilling, which can easily lead to component misalignment due to insufficient precision. Furthermore, traditional designs lack multi-directional displacement compensation structures, making them prone to jamming and separation during lateral and longitudinal expansion and contraction of the bridge, affecting traffic safety and bridge durability. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a modular prefabricated bridge expansion joint that allows for pre-assembly of supports and plates, rapid on-site assembly, and multi-directional displacement support, to solve the problems of cumbersome installation, reliance on on-site processing for precision, and poor displacement adaptability of existing technologies.

The screw 23, steel plate 18, rubber plate 19, and fixed toothed plate 21 are also connected and fixed using fasteners. The bottom of the fixed toothed plate 21 is provided with multiple second-step holes 32. The upper surface of the rubber plate 19 is provided with multiple third anti-loosening bolts 24. The third anti-loosening bolts 24 pass through the rubber plate 19 and steel plate 18 and extend into the second-step holes 32. The outer surface of the third anti-loosening bolts 24 is threaded with corresponding anti-loosening nuts to ensure the steel plate 18 is securely fastened. Plate 18, rubber plate 19, and fixed toothed plate 21 are connected and fixed. The outer surface of screw 23 is threadedly fitted with a first anti-loosening nut 22 and a second anti-loosening nut 33. Screw 23 passes through steel plate 18 and rubber plate 19 and extends into the second stepped hole 32. The second anti-loosening nut 33 is located within the second stepped hole 32. After tightening the second anti-loosening nut 33 and the first anti-loosening nut 22, steel plate 18, rubber plate 19, and fixed toothed plate 21 are connected and fixed. The second anti-loosening nut 33 is threadedly connected and fixed to screw 23 and a third anti-loosening bolt 24. The first anti-loosening nut 22 is threadedly connected and fixed to screw 23.
[0024] Advantageously, the first frame rod 13 has a U-shaped structure, and threaded lines are provided at both ends of the first frame rod 13.
[0025] Advantageously, the triangular fixing assembly includes multiple supports 26 fixed to the outer surfaces of the first connecting rod 11 and the second connecting rod 25.

It also includes a bracket 29, which is abutted against the upper end face of the inner hole seat 27. Multiple second anti-loosening bolts 28 are provided in the bracket 29. The second anti-loosening bolts 28 pass through the bracket 29 and are threadedly connected to the inner hole seat 27. When the bracket 29 is triangular, the number of supports 26 is three.
[0026] In Embodiment 2, advantageously, after the devices are placed side by side on site, they need to be welded to form an integrated structure. A third connecting rod 51 and a fourth connecting rod 52 pass through and are installed inside the second frame rod 17. The third connecting rod 51 and the fourth connecting rod 52 fix all the second frame rods 17 together by welding. The second connecting rod 25 is also welded to the second frame rod 17. A fifth connecting rod 53 passes through and is installed inside the first frame rod 13. The fifth connecting rod 53 fixes all the first frame rods 13 together by welding. The first frame rod 13 is also welded to the first connecting rod 11.
[0027] In Example 3, advantageously, a groove 63 is cut out at the bridge junction using a cutting machine. Then, the movable toothed plate 15, fixed toothed plate 21, steel plate 18, and rubber plate 19 of the welded device are disassembled. The remaining frame is then placed upside down in the groove 63. The bracket 29 is then disassembled and removed from the groove 63, or the bracket 29 is directly cut to detach it from the inner hole seat 27 and the upright seat 26. A reinforcing cage is then placed between the frame and the two end walls of the groove 63 and fixed thereto. Finally, a V-shaped water guide trough 64 is placed in the middle of the frame. Before the first pour, rubber sleeves are fitted onto the screw sections of the first anti-loosening bolt 14 and the screw rod 23. After the first pour is completed, the first anti-loosening bolt 14 and the screw rod 23 are exposed in the concrete, and the rubber sleeves are removed. Then, the moving toothed plate 15 and the positioner 16 are installed and fixed using the first anti-loosening bolt 14 and the anti-loosening nut. Then, the steel plate 18, the rubber plate 19, and the fixed toothed plate 21 are reconnected and fixed to the screw rod 23 using the first anti-loosening nut 22 and the second anti-loosening nut 33. Then, the second pour is performed to complete the pouring of the V-shaped water guide channel 64 and fill the gaps. For tightening the anti-loosening nuts, a torque wrench is used, and the anti-loosening nuts are tightened sequentially by tightening the diagonally opposite anti-loosening nuts.
[0028] After removing the anti-loosening nut in the first stepped hole 31, the movable toothed plate 15 can be separated from the positioner 16.
[0029] Similarly, by rotating the first anti-loosening nut 22 and the second anti-loosening nut 33, the first anti-loosening nut 22 and the second anti-loosening nut 33 move up and down at the threaded part of the screw 23, so that the steel plate 18, the rubber plate 19 and the fixed tooth plate 21 are connected and fixed. The distance between them relative to the bottom of the screw 23 can be adjusted so that the fixed tooth plate 21 is flush with the movable tooth plate 15.
[0030] After rotating the second anti-loosening bolt 28, the second anti-loosening bolt 28 is disengaged from the inner hole seat 27, and the bracket 29 can be removed. After the device is connected to form a frame, due to its inverted setting, a pad needs to be placed in the groove 63 in advance to give the second anti-loosening bolt 28 enough space to be removed. The second anti-loosening bolt 28 is first rotated to separate from the inner hole seat 27, and then the bracket 29 is pulled out and removed as a whole. Then the pad is removed.
[0031] When installing the fixing toothed plate 21, steel plate 18 and rubber plate 19 on the frame, first put the rubber plate 19, steel plate 18 and fixing toothed plate 21 on the outer surface of the screw 23, then let the screw 23 enter the first anti-loosening nut 22 and then connect it to the screw 23 through the threaded engagement of the second anti-loosening nut 33, so that the rubber plate 19, steel plate 18 and fixing toothed plate 21 can be connected and fixed.
[0032] The function of the third anti-loosening bolt 24 in connecting and fixing the steel plate 18, rubber plate 19 and fixing toothed plate 21 is to ensure that the three are fixedly connected at the factory, so as to facilitate modularization and direct delivery.
[0033] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions conceived without creative effort should be included within the protection scope of this utility model; therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
