Structural features

Pot type rubber bearing
The structural principle of pot type rubber bearing is that the rubber block placed in the sealed steel pot can bear the vertical load of the bridge with the reaction force generated under the three-way stress. At the same time, the elasticity of the rubber can meet the rotation of the beam end, and the horizontal displacement of the bridge superstructure can be completed through the free sliding of the stainless steel plate welded on the upper seat plate and the polytetrafluoroethylene. This series of products has reasonable structure, large bearing capacity, small deformation, large horizontal displacement, flexible rotation, and good buffer performance. It is the best support for building continuous bridges, and has the advantages of light weight, compact structure, simple structure, low building height, convenient processing and manufacturing, steel saving, and cost reduction, It is an ideal bearing suitable for large span bridges. GPZ, GPZ (Ⅱ) and GPZ (KZ) are commonly used. The bearing capacity of GPZ (II) series bearings is 31 levels, with a bearing capacity of 0.8MN-60MN, which can meet the needs of large bridge construction.
In the GPZ (II) standard series, the horizontal bearing capacity of fixed bearings in all directions and the non slip direction of one-way movable bearings is not less than 10% of the rigid bearing capacity of bearings. The horizontal bearing capacity of seismic bearing shall not be less than 20% of the vertical bearing capacity of bearing. The rotation angle of support is not less than 0.02 rad
After 5201 silicone grease is added for lubrication, the minimum design friction coefficient of normal temperature movable bearing is 0.03; After lubricating with 5201 silicone grease, the minimum design friction coefficient of cold resistant movable bearing is 0.06.

Bearing classification

Pot rubber bearings can be divided into three categories according to the scope of application: pot rubber bearings for highway bridges Pot type rubber bearing for railway bridge And derivatives of pot rubber bearings. Commonly used highway pot rubber bearings include GPZ pot rubber bearings, GPZ (Ⅱ) pot rubber bearings (according to GT391-1999), GPZ (KZ) pot rubber bearings and other series. Commonly used railway pot rubber bearings include TPZ-I railway pot rubber bearings, TPZ standard railway pot rubber bearings, and special bridge 8156 railway bridge bearings. There are many derivatives of pot rubber bearings, such as QPZ pot rubber bearings, KPZ series pot rubber bearings, elastic shock absorption spherical steel bearings, self elevating pot rubber bearings, etc.
Each type can be divided into fixed (GD), one-way (DX) and two-way (SX) activities according to the displacement form.

spherical bearing

edit

Structural characteristics

QZ series spherical bearings are composed of upper bearing plate, lower bearing plate, spherical plate PTFE sliding plate (F4, spherical PTFE plate) and rubber retaining ring. It changes the rubber plate in the pot bearing to spherical PTFE plate, so it is named. Because the middle steel plate and bottom basin of QZ spherical bearing are also changed to spherical surface, the friction coefficient is reduced. The displacement is realized by the sliding between the upper support plate and the plane tetrafluoro plate. A guide groove or a guide ring is arranged on the upper support plate to restrict the one-way or multi-directional displacement of the support, and spherical one-way movable support and fixed support can be made. The sliding between the spherical plate and the spherical PTFE plate can meet the needs of the bearing angle.

advantage

QZ spherical bearing is characterized by reliable force transmission and flexible rotation. It not only has the characteristics of GPZ pot rubber bearing with large bearing capacity and large seat displacement, but also can better meet the needs of large corners. Compared with ordinary pot bearings, it has the following advantages:
1. The spherical rubber bearing transmits force through the spherical surface, so there is no force necking phenomenon, and the reaction force acting on the concrete is relatively uniform;
2. The spherical bearing realizes the rotation process of the bearing by sliding the spherical polytetrafluoroethylene plate. The dynamic moment is small, and the rotation moment is only related to the spherical radius of the bearing and the friction coefficient of the polytetrafluoroethylene plate, and has nothing to do with the size of the bearing angle. It is especially suitable for the requirements of large angle. The design angle can reach 0.05 rad
3. The QZ spherical bearing has the same rotational performance in all directions and is suitable for wide and curved bridges;
4. This kind of bearing product does not need rubber to bear pressure, and there is no influence of rubber aging on bearing rotation performance. It is especially suitable for low temperature areas.

Manufacturing steps

Announce
edit
First, it is very necessary to provide drawings, because the drawings are the most accurate embodiment of the manufacturing steps. If there is no common type of plate bearing, please pay attention to the conversion of units when calculating the length, width and height or radius and height, pay attention to whether the displacement of basin bearing is fixed or movable, and remember not to drop the weight of anchor bolts when calculating.
Second, pay attention to the customer's needs, whether the customer wants the national standard or the general standard. The production process varies with different demands and quotations.
Whether the third party needs to be tested or not, many times there will be uncertainties as long as there is a third party involved in the test. If the customer wants to pass the test, he or she must pass the test through the relationship. Of course, we produce these bearings that are qualified in the factory test.
Fourth, try to provide the customer with some installation suggestions. If the customer is a long-term bridge builder, don't go overboard. If you don't understand what data you must tell the customer to consult to ensure the correctness of the installation, it must be rubber products. If the installation is incorrect, there will be a problem of bearing floating or extrusion affecting the normal load of the bearing, Then the quality and service life of the whole bridge are also worrying.

computing method

Laminated rubber bearing It is the most commonly used support, and of course the simplest one. Plate type rubber bearings are divided into rectangular and circular shapes, and of course there are other shapes, which are the most common.
The price of bearings is calculated according to the volume. For rectangular bearings, the price of the product is the length multiplied by the width multiplied by the height multiplied by the unit price. However, in the calculation process, we must pay attention to the conversion of units. Generally, customers tell us that all bearings are millimeters, which should be converted into centimeters. Of course, the price of bearings is also calculated in cubic centimeters. Let's take an example.
The price of 200 * 300 * 42 is 20 * 30 * 4.2 * unit price, which is the price of the product.
For the calculation of the price of circular bearings, the formula of the area of the circle multiplied by the height is π r ² * h. There is no example.
Of course, there are also plates with PTFE skateboards in the plate rubber. This calculation is the bottom area multiplied by (the height minus the thickness of the PTFE skateboard is generally 2~3mm, of course, there are special cases, here we will make a detailed calculation according to the construction requirements) multiplied by the unit price plus the price of the PTFE skateboard (the bottom area multiplied by the unit price).
The common code of plate rubber bearing is GYZ GJZ GYZF4 GJZF4.
Pot type rubber bearing is relatively simple. It is charged by weight. Of course, we have detailed specifications and weight introduction, which can be similar to that in the dictionary. Of course, don't forget to add the weight of bolts.

Support layout

Announce
edit
The layout of bridge bearings is mainly related to the structural form of the bridge. In general, the following basic principles need to be considered when arranging bearings:
(1) When the superstructure is a spatial structure, the bearing shall be able to adapt to the deformation of the bridge along the bridge direction (X direction) and across the bridge direction (Y direction) at the same time;
(2) The bearing must be able to reliably transmit vertical and horizontal reaction forces;
(3) The support shall make the longitudinal displacement, transverse displacement and longitudinal and constant rotation angle caused by the deformation of the beam as unconstrained as possible;
(4) The railway bridge must usually be equipped with a fixed support on each joint beam;
(5) When the bridge is located on the ramp, the fixed support shall be generally located on the abutment in the downhill direction;
(6) When the bridge is located on a flat slope, the fixed support should be set on the front abutment in the main driving direction;
(7) The fixed bearing should be set at the place with large bearing reaction force;
(8) Several bearings on the same pier shall have similar rotational stiffness;
(9) When the support of continuous beam may sink, the possibility of support height adjustment shall be considered.
In a word, the layout principle of bridge bearings is not only to facilitate the transfer of bearing reaction, but also to make the bearings fully adapt to the free deformation of the beam.

Usage rules

Announce
edit
The following is a brief introduction to the different use rules of rubber bearings for highway bridges:
(1) Plate rubber bearing
The working principle of the plate rubber bearing is to realize the vertical rotation of the beam with the elastic compression of the rubber, and to ensure the horizontal displacement of the beam with the shear deformation of the rubber block. Therefore, there is no difference between fixed bearing and movable bearing. Because its horizontal displacement is realized by the shear deformation of rubber, the allowable horizontal displacement is small, so it is suitable for highway, urban bridge and railway bridge with small and medium spans. Generally, plate rubber bearings can be used for bridges with standard spans less than 20m. Plate type rubber bearings can be divided into rectangular and circular ones. Circular plate type rubber bearings are mainly used for bridges with circular piers. The model and height of plate rubber bearing shall be determined according to the actual displacement and bearing reaction force. The plate rubber bearing shall be installed horizontally as far as possible. When it is necessary to install it obliquely, the maximum longitudinal slope shall be ≤ 2%.
(2) Teflon sliding plate support
Teflon sliding plate bearing is to stick a layer of polytetrafluoroethylene plate with the same plane size on the top surface of the plate rubber bearing, and set a stainless steel plate on the bottom surface of the beam for relative sliding movement. This is the use of PTFE and stainless steel relative motion between the friction coefficient is very small, so that it becomes a movable support. In addition to the advantages of plate rubber bearing, it can also meet the requirements of large horizontal displacement. Therefore, it is suitable for simple supported beams with large span, continuous beams and bridges with continuous deck. There are two types of PTFE sliding plate bearings: closed type and simple type. For urban bridges and areas with serious ultraviolet radiation, air pollution and dust, closed type shall be used, and simple type can be used for the rest. The model and height of PTFE sliding plate bearing shall be determined according to the actual displacement and bearing reaction force. The tetrafluororubber sliding plate support shall be installed horizontally as far as possible. When it is necessary to install it obliquely, the maximum longitudinal slope shall be ≤ 2%.
(3) Pot type rubber bearing
Pot type rubber bearing is to place a rubber block in a pot shaped base, use the characteristics of the rubber's fluid nature under three-phase stress to achieve a large corner, and realize the horizontal displacement of the beam through the low friction coefficient of the relative movement between the polytetrafluoroethylene plate and the stainless steel plate placed on the middle support steel plate. Pot type rubber bearings can meet the requirements of large bearing reaction, large horizontal displacement and large corner, and are suitable for bridges with large span and bearing reaction.

Quality factors

Announce
edit
1、 Colloid of rubber used This is the main factor affecting the quality of plate type rubber bearings. Due to fierce market competition and severe price pressure from customers, many rubber bearing manufacturers have reduced their costs and used inferior rubber. From the appearance, we can see that good rubber has a shiny and dark surface. You can feel a little elasticity when pressing with your fingers. The rubber with poor quality has a black surface, No gloss. However, the real quality of the glue needs to be tested, and the quality problem cannot be found by simply judging from the compressive elastic modulus and shear elastic modulus. Generally, the problem can be found only by testing the intermediate adhesive film.
2、 Internal steel plate : The steel plate is the guarantee of the bearing capacity of the plate rubber bearing, so the thickness of the steel plate must meet the standard, the material must be finished plate, no bending plate, etc., and the rust removal and sand blasting must be done in the treatment to ensure the bonding of rubber and steel plate. (Some defective manufacturers replace scrap iron sheet or replace thick steel plate with thin thickness, which leads to insufficient storage of product strength and easy to cause serious problems. In some places, it is required to detect the ultimate compressive strength in order to find the quality defect.)
3、 Production process : The automatic production of the plate rubber bearing has not been completely realized yet. The steps before vulcanization are basically manual operations. The quality of the processes such as unloading, cutting and stacking is greatly related to the proficiency of workers. The curing time and temperature control on the curing press are also very important. The curing time of rubber bearings of different specifications is different. If the corresponding curing time is not reached, the sandwiches will be formed, and the rubber inside is not fully vulcanized, affecting the product quality.

Test items

Announce
edit
1. Compressive elastic modulus: test the designed elasticity of the product.
2. Shear modulus of elasticity: measure the horizontal deformation stress of the product (key item)
3. Ultimate compressive strength: test product bearing capacity storage modulus (key item)
4. Shear bonding performance: detect whether there are defects in the bonding of steel plate and rubber inside the product (key item)
5. Shear aging resistance: to test the aging resistance of the product, this standard is of little significance because of the low test standard.
6. Allowable rotation angle performance: check the maximum allowable rotation of the beam body without void during rotation.
7. Friction coefficient: check the maximum friction force of PTFE sliding plate and stainless steel plate under the condition of silicone grease lubrication.

Development history

Announce
edit
Plate type Rubber bearing It is a new type of bridge bearing. The utility model has the advantages of simple structure, easy processing and manufacturing, low sodium consumption, low cost, convenient installation, etc. It has been widely used in bridge engineering at home and abroad.
In China, plate rubber bearings have been developed and tested by Shanghai Rubber Products Research Institute, Shanghai Municipal Engineering Research Institute and Shanghai Municipal Design Institute since 1965, and have been successively used on some highway bridges in Guangdong, Shanghai, Shandong, Guangxi, Fujian, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui. The road bridge in Zhaoqing, Guangdong, was the first to use the plate rubber bearing in China, which has been used for 25 years. The plate rubber bearing has become a widely used and popular bearing form for highway and urban bridges in China. In 1988, the Technical Conditions for Plate Rubber Bearings of Highway Bridges (JT3132.288) was formulated, followed by the Ministry of Transport standards such as the Specification Series for Plate Rubber Bearings of Highway Bridges (JT3132.1-88) and the Inspection Rules for Mechanical Properties of Plate Rubber Bearings of Highway Bridges (JT3I32.3-90). In 1994, the Standard for Plate Rubber Bearings of Highway Bridges (JT/T4 -- 93) was revised and promulgated Later, it was revised to (JT/T4-2004), which laid the foundation for the correct use of large area of plate rubber bearings.
On our railway bridge, the first trial of plate rubber bearing was on a 12m prestressed concrete pretensioned beam at the side span of Anhui Guzhen Bridge in 1969. Subsequently, due to the need to replace old beams and new projects, Taiyuan, Shanghai, Jinan, Shenyang and other railway bureaus have also adopted plate rubber bearings. In order to systematically study the mechanical properties of plate rubber bearings such as compression, shear, rotation, etc., from 1979 to 1981, the Academy of Sciences of the Ministry of Railways conducted a systematic experimental study on 160 rubber bearings with different specifications, different shape coefficients, and different rubber layer thicknesses, and passed the technical appraisal of the Ministry of Railways in September 1982. Various research parameters were included in the Code for Design of Railway Bridge Oil (TN2-85), and the Technical Conditions for Plate Rubber Bearings of Railway Bridges (TBl893-87) was formulated in 1987. The plate rubber bearing is mainly used on reinforced concrete, prestressed concrete and steel railway bridges with medium and small spans of 6-20m, and the maximum bearing reaction is about 2.2MN.
Plate type rubber bearings are widely used all over the world. As early as 1936, rubber bearings were used on a railway bridge in the suburb of Paris, France. After the Second World War, many countries, such as Britain, Germany, the United States, Japan, etc., successively used plate rubber bearings, but it was not until 1958 that they really accumulated extensive experience in use. In particular, French Frenchner put forward the method of setting reinforcement grids or steel plates in the rubber to restrict the lateral expansion of rubber, thus making the plate rubber bearing develop rapidly.

Replacement scheme

Announce
edit
1、 Analysis on the quality causes of rubber bearings
(1) The material of the bearing itself is uneven, and some bearings use recycled rubber.
(2) Some sliding bearings were not coated with silicone grease during installation, resulting in shear failure of sliding plate bearings.
(3) During the installation, the elevation of the support pad stone was not well controlled, the force on the four load-bearing bearings of the single beam was uneven, and some rubber bearings were disengaged, resulting in the deformation of the bearing with large force exceeding the specified value.
(4) The expansion joint of the structure is not completed, the traffic is not completely closed, and the brake of some heavy social vehicles causes large shear force on the bearing, resulting in damage.
2、 Replacement scheme
(1) Support foundation large tonnage jack is used to jack up the bridge span at one time
In order to facilitate the installation of the support and provide sufficient bearing capacity, a reinforced concrete foundation shall be set under the support. Since the support foundation is located in the river, the foundation is relatively weak, with low and uneven bearing capacity. The foundation placed on it will produce large uneven settlement. In order to reduce the settlement, the size of reinforced concrete foundation must be increased and the support must be preloaded. This scheme has large quantities, longer construction period, low safety and high cost.
(2) The super thin one-way jack pier top and dial indicator are used to support and jack up the bridge span to make full use of the space between the beam body and pier top. The super thin one-way jack pier top is used to support and jack up the bridge span with a height of 70mm, The Φ=300mm round flat oil jack (the maximum lifting weight is 250t, the maximum stroke is 15mm) is equipped with an electric oil pump to lift the bridge span synchronously, and the rising speed of the beam body is observed with a dial indicator to ensure that the force on each beam body of the bridge span is uniform
In addition, there are high damping isolation rubber bearings, see the entry for details
