Definitions

  • the joint system connects two co-axial steel tubes improving the construction process of CFST structures, facilitating the connection so both tubes are readily attached to each other.
  • This joint allows the tubes to support themselves whilst the structure is being built and the concrete is still to be poured.
  • the system includes a mechanical device that enables the rotation of the connector and keeps it in place until the concrete hardens. Once the concrete is poured and hardened, the joint is permanently locked by the concrete.
  • the field of application of the invention is construction, more specifically the construction of composite steel and concrete structures, preferably but not limited to civil engineering, buildings and windmills.
  • CFST structures are built in two phases. First, the steel structure is built using steel segments, and then a sufficiently liquid concrete is poured inside.
  • Patent application US2019/0376273 A1 which discloses the features of the preamble of claim 1, relates to a bolted joint system for structural members for buildings, in particular to an assembled self-recovery circular concrete-filled steel-tube composite joint.
  • the present invention improves the construction process of CFST structures enabling an easy and fast installation of the steel part of the structure.
  • the mechanical device that rotates the connector can be actuated manually or remote control activated.
  • the joint for concrete-filled steel tubular structures is of the type that joins two axially-aligned tubular steel segments.
  • This joint also comprises a tubular connector between both steel segments, in a tongue and groove connection with each steel segment.
  • the female part has a shell, the inside of the shell carrying at least two teeth that define a circular hole for the insertion of the circular wall.
  • the projections fit between the teeth, so they can pass through them. They also fit behind the teeth so they can be placed in a twist lock.
  • the connector is locked against rotation by the concrete filling once the concrete is hardened.
  • the circular wall is not fully round in the inside. It might include elements (rivets, nails, profiles, etc.) to increase the rotational stiffness between the connector and the concrete.
  • the connector has a male part on each side, so the steel segments both have female parts.
  • the connector and the steel segments might have handles or platen marks for attachment of a mechanical tightening device.
  • the connector and the steel segments might have valves to check that the joint is fully filled with concrete.
  • FIG 1 a first embodiment of the joint is shown. It comprises two tubular steel segments (1) and one tubular connector (2).
  • the connector (2) is placed between both steel segments (1) so their respective holes are axially aligned.
  • the three elements are connected through a tongue and groove connection and locked against rotation, once correctly placed, by the concrete filling (10).
  • both steel segments (1) comprise a female part whilst the connector (2) has a male part on each side.
  • a transversal section of an example of male part is shown in figure 4 . It comprises a circular wall (3) where at least two projections (4) are placed. The projections (4) are evenly distributed around the outside of the circular wall (3). It is possible to include elements (9) that increase the rotational stiffness between the connector (2) and the concrete filling (10).
  • FIG. 5 An example of female part is shown in figure 5 . It comprises a shell (5), whose external shape is irrelevant. For instance, it can be round or squared.
  • the inside of the shell (5) carries several teeth (6) that define a circular hole (7).
  • This circular hole (7) is slightly bigger than the circular wall (3) of the male part so the circular wall (3) fits inside the circular hole (7).
  • the number of teeth (6) is normally the same as the number of projections (4) of the male part.
  • the projections (4) fit between and behind the teeth (6), so they can be placed in a twist lock.
  • the joint has a connector (2) that is attached to two steel segments (1), the placing of teeth (6) and projections (4) has to allow for the insertion of two male parts in the correspondent female parts at the same time.
  • the connector (2) is rotated in order to align the teeth (6) and projections (4).
  • the connector (2) and the steel segments (1) may have handles or platen marks (8) for hoisting or other tasks, that also allow a mechanical tightening device (12) to rotate and temporarily lock the joint system while the steel structure is installed, as shown in figures 2 and 3 .
  • the platen marks (8) also allow to check for the correct rotational position between the connector (2) and the steel segments (1).
  • the connector (2) can no longer rotate so the joint is firmly secured.
  • the mechanical tightening device (12), and platen marks (8), if desired, can then be removed.
  • a seal may be placed in any contact surface between the connector (2) and the steel segment (1), e.g. one or more circular rubber-seals. This seal improves the sealing of the joint during the concrete pouring.
  • the connector (2) and the steel segments (1) might have valves (11) which allow air to escape to ensure that the joint system and the steel segments are fully filled with concrete (10).
  • the valves can also be used to pump concrete into the system.
