Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a motorway barrier to be used on the sides of bridges, and particularly to a monolithic barrier of this type, which can be homologated in the so-called B3 class of top resistance, which is particularly suited to be used on already existing bridges or motorway viaducts, due to its reduced weight, besides on newly erected structures of this kind.
  • EP - 0 575 705 A1 discloses a metallic safety barrier with stiffening ribs which are at least two in number for each module and are L-shaped in cross section.
  • This type of barrier has no reticulated structure. Moreover, the way the different modules are hinged to each other is different from the present application.
  • WO 95/03453 relates to a light guardrail for bridges (same applicant as the applicant of the present application). This kind of barrier does not meet the requirements of the B3 class, whereas the barrier of the present invention has reinforcements in the form of reticulated structures for this purpose.
  • the hinges which connect the modules together are different from the present application, and the structure of the uprights is box-like, not reticulated.
  • the barrier of the application WO 95/03453 can be assembled in situ, without the need of transporting monolithic blocks.
  • the modules are monolithic and can be connected directly to each other.
  • An object of the present invention is to realize a steel-made barrier for the sides of a bridge, which can be homologated in the class B3, with minimum production costs, employing a reduced amount of materials, and reducing the time for its erection.
  • Another object of the present invention is to realize the barrier in separate blocks or monolithic modules which can be directly connected to each other, which require a minimum assembling time and can be adapted to bridges of any span.
  • a further object of the present invention is to include in this new kind of barrier belonging to the B3 class, all features already advantageously used in this technical field; said features, which in part have been suitably modified, comprise among other things: the screw anchors with predetermined breaking threshold, the reinforcing ribs provided on the so-called “mantle” with the New Jersey profile, and the mutual connection systems among the barrier elements at the site of the expansion joints or their neighbourhood, that is, between the bays of the bridge, in order to allow displacements caused by thermal dilatation, eliminating the rise of dangerous mutual actions and stresses on the bridge top and barrier.
  • the above objects are obtained by a steel made barrier with New Jersey profile, according to the features of claim 1.
  • the dependent claims illustrate particular and/or preferred embodiments.
  • the barrier belongs to the B3 class. This means that it must possess optimum features for preventing the "jumping over”, that is the surmounting, by the vehicle, in order to avoid very serious consequences both to the passengers of the vehicle and to railways, roads, buildings, etc. which might be present below the bridge.
  • the barrier must deform itself and withdraw so as to absorb the impact energy in a controlled way, causing limited vehicle decelerations, thereby causing the least possible injuries to passengers.
  • the transversal displacement of the barrier even if desirable, must however be limited, since the space available on the curbstone of a bridge is approximately 0.5 meters.
  • the impact energy which the barrier must be able to absorb is equal to E ⁇ 600 kJ or more.
  • the barrier must prevent its surmounting by lorries having a centre of gravity located at a height up to about 1.60 m.
  • the barrier according to the present invention has some structural reinforcement elements which are individually shown in fig. 5 and are denoted by the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11. These structural reinforcement elements are welded to each other in order to obtain a structure which we may call reticulated or "lattice-work", which is clearly visible in Fig. 1.
  • Part 1 forms the "mantle" of the barrier, it has a "New Jersey” profile and is obviously continuous, thereby covering all the front part of the barrier module of about 6 meters of length.
  • Part 2 having the shape of a double wave, forms a reinforcement element welded to the back side of the "mantle".
  • the double wave 2 also extends along the whole length of the module.
  • Parts 3 and 4 are also welded and belong to the base 12 of the module, but they extend only for a limited length, for instance 15 cm, at the site - and on both sides - of the hole 14 for the screw anchors with predetermined breaking threshold.
  • the height of the base 12 may be equal, for instance, to a 1 m, more or less.
  • the parts 5,6 are also limited in their extension, to a zone around the hole 14, and are welded to the back side 7 of the upright and the tube piece 8 supporting the handrail tube 15 (shown in Fig. 4), the latter being inserted inside the sleeve 8; as can be seen, the structural reinforcement element comprises also the post or upright 13 of the handrail.
  • holes 14 there are preferably six holes 14 (which are elliptical when observed frontally), comprising two lateral holes, allowing to connect the barrier modules to each other by means of the bolt 81, and four central holes 14 provided for assembling the ductile screw anchors 32, spaced about D _ 1500 mm from each other.
  • the uprights 13,13 of the handrail of Fig. 3 are provided only in the number of 2, at the site of only two of the four central structural uprights of the module which comprise the hole 14.
  • Fig. 6 shows the connection between two handrail tubes 15,15 belonging to two adjacent barrier modules (of about 6 meters).
  • the sleeve 21 is inserted inside both tubes 15, 15 and fixed by bolts 22.
  • Both tubes 15 have a length which is approximately equal to that of a module, which may have a nominal length from 6 to 3 meters.
  • the modules which after welding have a monolithic structure, are transported with the tube 15 being already inserted in the guides 8, and the sleeve 21 and one of the bolts 22 being already assembled onto one end of a tube 15. It will be sufficient, then, to introduce the other tube 15 (of the other module), in the sleeve 21, and move the tubes only for a short distance, in order to obtain the connection.
  • the sleeve 21' is longer (for instance about 160 mm) and has slots 23 which are crossed by one of the two bolts 22. This system allows a sliding movement of the tube 15 at the site of an "expansion joint" between two adjacent spans of a bridge.
  • the sleeve 21 or 21' could be provided also in an intermediate point of the barrier.
  • the detail 30 shows the anchor system for obtaining the connection to the curbstone 31.
  • the anchor system comprises conventional components, like the constituent parts 9, 10, 11 which form the anchor chamber (welded to the structural upright), and the screw anchor 32 having a predetermined breaking threshold.
  • connection system between two modules will be illustrated for a "standard”joint and for an “expansion joint" of the viaduct.
  • the two modules 40,40 to be connected to each other comprise a plurality of rings with elliptical cross-section 41 at their mating ends, which have been welded in a staggered way, so as to be able to penetrate each other like a zipper, when the two modules are put close to each other. Then, a pin or bar 42 is introduced from above into the circular hole formed by the ellipses of the rings 41 belonging to the two modules 40 (Fig. 10).
  • a first plate 43 is mounted (Fig. 11B) onto the upper surface of the base 12 (no upright 13 in this position), while a counterplate 44 (with shorter width to be able to pass beyond the pin 42), is applied on the other (inner) side of the upper surface 45 of the base 12 of the barrier.
  • Bolts are inserted in the duly aligned four holes of the plates 43, 44 and thereafter these bolts are fastened.
  • the gaps of the plates on one side of the joint have an elongated form, this being necessary in order to facilitate assembling and for allowing certain tolerances.
  • the gap 46 (Fig. 10) will be about 2 cm.
  • connection is a bit more complex.
  • the connection system may be understood by considering, jointly, the three figures 8,9 and 10.
  • Both modules 40, 40 are put close together, interposing between them a hinge consisting of two half-parts 50, 50', which are freely rotatable around a pin 42'and form therewith a single body.
  • Each of said half-parts 50, 50' includes a plurality of sheet steel elements shaped like half-moons 52 and 52' respectively, which are welded to steel strips 51 and 51' in order to form a unique integral piece.
  • two pins 42 are simultaneously inserted into the rings with elliptical cross section 41 of respective modules 40, 40 and into the half-parts 50, 50' whereas a untral pin is introduced inside both half-parts 50, 50' at the same time (specifically into the half-moon elements 52, 52').
  • Fig. 9 also shows how the half-parts 50,50' of the hinge are obtained, welding the flat strips 51 and 51' to the separate parts 52 (four pieces) and 52' (four pieces).
  • the gap 60 (Fig. 8) in the case of the expansion joint is about 60 mm, but it may be more or less than this value (for instance ⁇ 40 mm), allowing thermal displacements of the viaduct spans; these values can be obtained by means of the above described hinge.
  • the parts 41, 52, 52', 41 are arranged in staggered positions so as to allow mutual penetration (see assembled joint shown centrally in Fig. 9).
  • the plate 70 (Fig. 11E) is used for the connection in the case of the expansion joint; it covers from above the whole above described hinge, securing the three pins 42, 42; 42', preventing the pins from being removed.
  • Slack bolts are introduced in the slots 72 of the plate 70 and into the slots 73 of the counterplate 71 (Fig. 11D).
  • the counterplate 71 is applied on the other (internal) side of the upper wall 45 of the barrier base 12, with respect to the upper plate 70, the latter lying on the surface 45. Since the holes 72, 73 have an elongated form, and the bolts inserted therein are loose, the movement of the modules is not hindered at the site of the expansion joint.
  • Fig. 11C shows a plate 74 which is also illustrated in Fig. 4 and serves for connecting to the barrier module, the bent end 90 of the handrail.
  • the two modules of the barrier are connected to each other by a bolt comprising a nut and a lock nut, having for example a length of 160 mm and denoted by the number 80, the connection being done at the foot of the barrier and at the site of an expansion joint.
  • This bolt which will not be fastened, must have in fact a length which is sufficient so as to prevent the hindrance of movements performed by the modules, which are themselves due to small displacements of the span ends.
  • the bolt 81 has instead a much smaller length, for instance about 80 mm, and will be screwed tight in order to rigidly connect two different adjacent barrier elements in the standard position.
  • the barrier is primarily used on the sides of a bridge, according to the present invention, may also be utilized in all cases where a barrier meeting the conditions of the B3 class is required, wherein these prerequisites are obtained through the particular reticulated structure of the handrail upright, which has been designed specifically for this purpose.
