Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a concrete block connecting structure useful for connecting concrete blocks at a construction site, and a coupler used for the connecting structure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Concrete blocks used when constructing concrete structures such as beams, retaining walls, culverts, and waterways are intended to improve work efficiency, accuracy, and quality control.
Manufactured outside of construction sites. However, in the case where the block itself is large and heavy, or in the case of a block having a complicated shape, the work load and cost involved in transport increase, and a large storage space is required.

Therefore, in recent years, a method has been adopted in which the concrete block is divided and manufactured in advance, and the divided block is carried into a construction site and connected as necessary. For example, as shown in FIG. 44, a culvert block having a predetermined shape is divided into upper and lower parts in advance and manufactured, and the divided blocks 201 and 202 are connected at a construction site.

[0004] Recesses 201a and 202a are formed on the side surfaces of the ends of the divided blocks 201 and 202 on the connecting surface side at intervals. Also, each recess 201a,
Ends 201b and 202b of the internal rebar buried in the block are exposed inside 202a.

When connecting the divided blocks 201 and 202, the two divided blocks 201 and 202 are combined as shown in the figure with a packing (not shown) interposed therebetween. Then, the opposite reinforcing bar ends 201b and 202b are individually welded to integrate the two divided blocks 201 and 202.

[0006]

However, in the above-mentioned connecting method, a welding operation at one point requires 5 to 10 minutes, so that even if a plurality of welding workers are used, a series of connecting operations is completed. It takes a considerable amount of time to perform welding, and the welding quality tends to vary depending on the environmental conditions and the capabilities of the operator.

Also, the end portions 201b and 202b of the internal rebar are provided.
The packing cannot be sufficiently pressed at the time of connection because only the members are welded. In other words, it is difficult to connect the two divided blocks 201 and 202 in an appropriate press-contact state even with the packing interposed therebetween, and it is difficult to secure the desired airtightness and watertightness.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a concrete block connecting structure capable of firmly connecting concrete blocks in a proper press-contact state, and a useful structure for this connecting structure.

[0013]

1 to 5 show one embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1 to FIG.
B2 is a divided block, 10 is an internal reinforcing bar, 30 is a connecting rod, and 50 is a connecting device.

The divided blocks DB1 and DB2 are for a beam block, and are connected left and right to form a beam block having a predetermined shape (see FIG. 1). The divided blocks DB1 and DB2
Is a precast concrete product manufactured in advance outside the construction site, and is carried into the construction site without being connected.

Each of the divided blocks DB1 and DB2 has an internal reinforcing bar 10 for reinforcement. The internal rebar 10 is arranged so as to connect between eight main rebars 11 parallel to each other, four stirrups 12 arranged so as to surround the outer side of the main rebars 11, and ends of the stirrups 12. 4 auxiliary muscles 1
3 and are assembled in a similar manner to each of the divided blocks DB1 and DB2, and then joined by welding or other methods to be integrated. Of course, a member having a structure other than the illustrated example may be used as the internal reinforcing bar, and a member having a reinforcing bar (not shown) parallel to the main bar 11 may be used as the internal reinforcing bar.

A recess 40 having openings on the upper and lower surfaces and the connection surface side is provided with a gap between the upper and lower surfaces on the connection surface side of the divided block DB1 and the upper and lower surfaces on the connection surface side of the divided block DB2. In each case.

Further, four connecting rods 30 each having a predetermined length are embedded in each of the divided blocks DB1 and DB2 so as to be parallel to the main bar 11. In the illustrated example, a deformed reinforcing bar is used as the connecting rod 30, and the connecting rod 30 is joined to the internal reinforcing bar 10 by welding or another method. That is, the divided block D
B1 and DB2 are manufactured using the internal reinforcing bar 10 in which the connecting rod 30 is integrated. In addition, each connecting rod 3
0 has a male screw portion 30 a at one end thereof, and the male screw portion 30 a is exposed in each recess 40.

Incidentally, the thickness of the connecting rod 30 is appropriately selected according to conditions such as the weight of the divided blocks to be connected and the external force applied to the connected beam blocks. Further, the size of the connector 50 described later in detail also depends on the connecting rod 3.
It is appropriately selected according to the thickness of 0 and the same conditions as described above.

For example, in the beam block as in this embodiment, a pulling force acts on the lower surface side and a compressive force acts on the upper surface side. Therefore, the lower surface side where the tensile force acts acts on the upper surface side where the compressive force acts. Rather, it is better to use a thicker connecting rod 30 and a correspondingly larger connecting device 50. Of course, even if the thickness of the connecting rod 30 and the size of the connecting device 50 are the same, the number of the connecting rods 30 and the connecting devices 50 on the lower surface on which the pulling force acts is larger than the number on the upper surface on which the compressive force acts. Good.

Further, in this embodiment, a deformed reinforcing bar having a convex surface is used as the connecting rod 30, and the connecting rod 30 is integrated with the inner reinforcing bar 10.
The desired tensile strength is secured at zero.
If the desired tensile strength can be obtained without integrating the connecting rod 30 into the internal reinforcing bar 10, the connecting rod 3
0 does not necessarily need to be joined to the internal reinforcing bar 10.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the coupler 50 includes a first fastening member 51 and a second fastening member 52.
And two nuts 53 that can be attached to the male screw portion 30a of the connecting rod 30.

The first fastening member 51 is connected to the connecting rod 30.
Insertion hole 51a having a diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of
And an insertion hole 51b having a diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the nut 53 via a step 51c. A nut-like portion 51d with which a tool such as a wrench (not shown) can be engaged is provided at the end of the first fastening member 51 on the side of the insertion hole 51a. Further, a male screw portion 51e is provided on the outer surface of the insertion hole 51b of the first fastening member 51.

The second fastening member 52 is connected to the connecting rod 30.
Insertion hole 52a having a diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of
And a female screw hole 52b corresponding to the male screw portion 51e,
It has through step 52c. A nut-like portion 52d with which a tool such as a wrench (not shown) can be engaged is provided at an end of the second fastening member 52 on the side of the insertion hole 52a.

As can be seen from the drawing, the threads of the male screw portion 51e of the first fastening member 51 and the female screw hole 52b of the second fastening member 52 in this connector 50 are both right-hand threads, and The threads of the male screw portion 30a are all left-hand threads. Needless to say, at least one of the threads of the external thread portion 30a of the connecting rod 30 is a right-hand thread, or the external thread portion 51e of the first fastening member 51 and the thread of the female thread hole 52b of the second fastening member 52 are set to the left. Even with screws, it is possible to carry out the desired block connection.

When connecting the two divided blocks DB1 and DB2 by the coupler 50, first, as shown in FIG.
Is covered with the second fastening member 52, and a nut 53 is attached to the male screw portion 30a. Also, the first fastening member 51 is placed outside the exposed portion of the connecting rod 30 in the other divided block DB2, and the nut 53 is attached to the male screw portion 30a. Note that, depending on the relationship between the opposing interval of the connecting rods 30 and the sizes of the components of the coupler 50 when the blocks are combined, this mounting operation can be performed after the blocks are combined, which will be described later.

If a mark indicating the nut mounting position is attached to each male screw portion 30a, the mounting position of the nut 53 with respect to the male screw portion 30a can be easily determined. Further, if an adhesive is applied to the inner surface of the nut 53 in advance, or if two nuts having a small thickness are used as the nut 53 and one of the nuts is used to fix the other nut, the nut mounting position varies. Can be prevented.

Next, two divided blocks DB1 and DB2
Are assembled so that the concave portions 40 of the connecting rods coincide with each other, in other words, the packings (not shown) are sandwiched such that the center lines CL (see FIG. 5) of the connecting rods 30 coincide with each other. By the way, if the connecting surface of the divided block DB1 and the divided block DB2 is provided with a convex portion and a concave portion that engage with each other, the above-described combination work can be easily performed, and the shearing resistance of the connected block can be reduced. Can be improved.

Next, the tightening members 51 and 52 attached to the opposing connecting rods 30 are turned with a fingertip,
The male screw portion 51e of the first tightening member 51 is lightly tightened into the female screw hole 52b of the second tightening member 52.

Next, the nut-like portion 51d of the first fastening member 51 and the nut-like portion 52d of the second fastening member 52
The male screw of the first tightening member 51 is rotated by rotating the tightening members 51 and 52 in the opposite direction with the tool engaged, or by rotating only the other tightening member while holding down one of the tightening members. The part 51e is the second
It is tightened into the female screw hole 52b of the tightening member 52.

As the tightening proceeds, the nuts 53 attached to the male thread portions 30 a of the connecting rods 30 abut against the step 51 c of the first tightening member 51 and the step 52 c of the second tightening member 52. When the tightening is further continued thereafter, each connecting rod 30 is pulled in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 3, whereby the connecting surfaces of the divided blocks DB1 and DB2 are pressed against each other with no gap via the packing. Division block DB1 and division block DB2
In order to press-contact the connecting surfaces without unevenness, it is desirable to perform the above-mentioned tightening work evenly on the four connectors 50.

By this tightening, a pulling force acts on each connecting rod 30 in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 3, but as described above, each connecting rod 30 has a sufficient strength against this (adhesion to concrete). ) Is secured, so that the connecting rod 30 does not fall out of the block during tightening. In addition, each connecting rod 3
Since the tensile force acting on zero is dispersed in the block via the concrete contact surface, no crack is generated due to local stress concentration.

The insertion hole 51 of the first fastening member 51
a and the connecting rod 30 and between the insertion hole 52a of the second fastening member 52 and the connecting rod 30 have some play, so that there is a deviation in the center line CL of the opposing connecting rod 30. However, the displacement can be absorbed by the play, and the connecting operation can be performed properly.

Further, the thread direction of the male screw portion 51e of the first fastening member 51 and the thread direction of the female screw hole 52b of the second fastening member 52 and the thread direction of the male screw portion 30a of the connecting rod 30 are reversed. So, at the time of the above-mentioned tightening work,
The nut 53 attached to the male screw portion 30a of the connecting rod 30 does not come loose. Of course, as described above, an adhesive is applied to the inner surface of the nut 53 attached to the male screw portion 30a in advance, or the nut 53 is
Even if two nuts having a small thickness are used and one nut is used to fix the other nut, the same loosening prevention effect as described above can be obtained.

The above-mentioned tightening operation is performed in the divided block DB.
1 and the divided block DB2 are continued until they come into pressure contact with each other through a packing under a predetermined pressure, whereby the two divided blocks DB1 and DB2 are firmly connected.

After the tightening operation is completed, a hardening material (not shown) is filled in each recess 40 and hardened. As the hardening material, reinforced mortar made of a mixture of mortar and resin can be preferably used. Thereby, the loosening of the connector 50 is prevented, and the shear strength of the connecting portion is improved. Thus, a series of connection work is completed.

According to the above-described concrete block connecting structure, a simple operation of rotating at least one of the first tightening member 51 and the second tightening member 52 using a tool after combining the divided blocks DB1 and DB2. Thereby, the connecting surfaces of the divided blocks DB1 and DB2 can be pressed into contact with each other via the packing, and the two blocks DB1 and DB2 can be firmly connected.

Further, since the pulling force can be applied to the connecting rods 30 facing each other by the above-described tightening operation to sufficiently press the packing, the divided block DB1 can be used.
And DB2 are connected in an appropriate press-contact state, so that the desired airtightness and watertightness can be properly secured.

Further, since a state in which a pulling force is applied to the opposing connecting rods 30 can be maintained, the connection between the divided blocks DB1 and DB2 does not become loose even when an external force is applied, and the connecting blocks are connected for a long time. A good state can be maintained.

Furthermore, since the coupler 50 can be made compact and the coupler 50 can be easily attached to the divided blocks DB1 and DB2, it is necessary to keep the coupler 50 attached to the block before coupling. Without connector 5
There is an advantage that 0 can be stored and managed in another place.

In place of the nut-shaped portion 51d of the first fastening member 51 and the nut-shaped portion 52d of the second fastening member 52, a toothed ring-shaped portion (rectangular grooves are formed at regular intervals in the circumferential direction) as shown in FIG. (Lined portions) 51f and 52e may be provided. In this case, the toothed portions 51f and 52
A tool having a projection or the like that can be engaged with e is used as a tool.

Further, it is possible to prevent the connecting rod 30 and the two fastening members 51 and 52 from being plastically deformed by an external force applied to the connected block, and to maintain good connection strength, watertightness and airtightness of the block. The method shown in FIG. 7, FIG. 8 or FIG.

In the method shown in FIG. 7, two fixing nuts 54 are previously attached to each of the male screw portions 30a of the connecting rod 30, and after the tightening work of the first tightening member 51 and the second tightening member 52 is completed. The first fastening member 51 and the second fastening member 5 are tightened by fastening the fixing nut 54.
2 is fixed. Of course, the same fixing can be performed even with one fixing nut 54.

At least one f is formed, and the hardening material HM is injected into one of the injection holes from the injection nozzle PN. The injected hardening material HM has a female screw hole 52b.
And the insertion hole 51a, 52a
And enters the gap between the connecting rod 30 and hardens. As the curing material HM, a material prepared by mixing an epoxy-based or polyester-based resin with an extender or the like can be preferably used.

The method shown in FIGS. 9A and 9B is a method in which a predetermined amount of the hardening material HM is filled in advance in the female screw hole 52b of the second tightening member 52, and then the female screw of the second tightening member 52 is formed. The male screw portion 51e of the first fastening member 51 is fastened to the hole 52b. The hardening material HM enters a gap between the female screw hole 52b and the male screw portion 51e or a gap between the insertion holes 51a, 52a and the connecting rod 30 according to the tightening, and hardens after the tightening operation is completed. The curing material HM used here is the same as described above. While the male screw portion 51e of the first fastening member 51 is being screwed into the female screw hole 52b of the second fastening member 52, the two fastening members 51, 5
When the vibration is given by shaking 2 or the like, it is possible to promote the hardening material HM to go into the gap.

Further, in the above embodiment, the connecting rod 30 using a straight deformed reinforcing bar is shown. However, the connecting rod shown in FIG. 10A, FIG. 10B or FIG. If adopted, the adhesive strength of the connecting rod 30 to concrete can be increased, and its tensile strength can be improved. The connecting rod 30 shown in FIG.
