Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a reinforcement bar coupler.
  • a reinforcement bar is used a manner in which it is buried inside concrete when constructing a steel-reinforced concrete structure in order to reinforce the strength of the concrete structure.
  • a large number of reinforcement bars are used for reinforcement in large buildings, special structures, and engineering work structures such as bridges.
  • reinforcement bars are manufactured to be standardized regular lengths, it is required to connect those reinforcement bars that are manufactured at limited lengths to each other when using such reinforcement bars in large buildings, special structures, and engineering work structures such as bridges.
  • Lap jointing is a method of coupling reinforcement bars by overlapping the reinforcement bars at a predetermined length and tying them with a wire or a steel wire. A large portion of the reinforcement bars are lost, and the reinforcement bars are easily detached due to the weak strength of jointed portions. Also, a working time is increased due to poor constructability, which is problematic.
  • the welding has problems in that construction is difficult and the strength of the portions of the reinforcement bars adjacent to the welded portions is remarkably weakened because of the heat generated when the welded portions are heated.
  • a reinforcement bar coupling device is disclosed in Korean Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 10-2009-0009578 (published Jan. 23, 2009).
  • a pair of reinforcement bars 1 and 2 which have joint protrusions 1 a and 2 a at predetermined intervals on the outer circumference thereof and rib protrusions 1 b and 2 b in the longitudinal direction are disposed such that they face each other.
  • the ends 1 c and 2 c of the reinforcement bars 1 and 2 which face each other are wrapped in first and second couplers 10 ′ and 20 ′.
  • Both ends of the first and second couplers 10 ′ and 20 ′ are clamped via screw clamping using clamping nuts 31 ′ and 33 ′. Afterwards, fastening pins 35 ′ are fitted into fastening holes 31 a ′ and 33 a ′ of the clamping nuts 31 ′ and 33 ′.
  • Korean Patent No. 10-0837113 (published Jun. 13, 2008) was disclosed as another mechanical coupling method of the related art.
  • one end of each reinforcement bar 100 ′′ is machined into the shape of a wedge, thereby forming a connecting portion 101 ′′.
  • the connecting portions 101 ′′ of a pair of reinforcement bars 100 ′′ are connected and fixed to each other using a pair of coupler members 11 ′′ and 21 ′′, a pair of coupler connecting pins 30 ′′, a pair of rubber bands 40 ′′ and the like.
  • the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the related art, and is intended to provide a reinforcement bar coupler, in which a female thread having an inclined taper plane is formed on the inner surface of a coupler cap, and a clamping spring is formed such that it is inserted into and fastened to the female thread.
  • the clamping spring is closely abutted to the bottom of the female thread and is increased in diameter so that the reinforcement bar slips.
  • the clamping spring moves along the inclined taper plane and is decreased in diameter, thereby holding the reinforcement bar. It is therefore possible to easily connect and couple the reinforcement bar with one touch based on a change in the diameter of the clamping spring using a relatively simple configuration.
  • the present invention is also intended to provide a reinforcement bar coupler, in which a base spring which is machined from the outside is used without directly machining the inner surface of the coupler cap in order to form the bottom and the inclined taper plane of the female thread, thereby facilitating machining and manufacture.
  • One-touch connecting means allows the clamping spring to be fitted into and fastened to the base spring in the state in which the clamping spring is twisted in the direction in which its diameter is increased.
  • the one-touch connecting means also allows the diameter of the clamping spring to be restored when the insertion of the reinforcement bar is completed. Accordingly, even if there is a difference in the diameter between reinforcement bars due to characteristics of the manufacturing process of the reinforcement bars, the reinforcement bars can be properly coupled to each other irrespective the difference.
  • the present invention provides a reinforcement bar coupler with which a reinforcement bar is connected and fixed.
  • the reinforcement bar coupler includes a hollow coupler cap having an open outer end through which the reinforcement bar is to be inserted into the coupler cap; a spiral female thread circumferentially recessed on an inner surface of the coupler cap, the female thread having an inclined taper plane which is inclined and protrudes from a recessed bottom in a direction toward the outer end; and a clamping spring having a spiral shape that corresponds to the female thread, the clamping spring being made of a material that can be twisted and changed in diameter under an external force and be elastically restored, and being fitted into and fastened to the female thread.
  • the clamping spring When the reinforcement bar is inserted, the clamping spring is closely abutted to the recessed bottom of the female thread and is unwound so that a diameter thereof is increased so that the reinforcement bar slips.
  • an external force in a direction opposite to a direction in which the reinforcement bar is inserted is applied in a state in which the reinforcement bar is inserted, the clamping spring moves in the direction toward the outer end of the coupler cap along the inclined taper plane due to a frictional force exerted onto the reinforcement bar and is wound on the reinforcement bar so that the diameter thereof is gradually decreased, thereby holding the reinforcement bar.
  • the reinforcement bar coupler according to the present invention is characterized in that the female thread includes a base spring fitted into the coupler cap.
  • the base spring is spirally wound so as to have an outer diameter corresponding to an inner diameter of the coupler cap, and has bottoms which are formed on an inner surface of the base spring, are spirally wound, and are spirally recessed in a circumferential direction at positions where adjacent joints meet, and inclined taper planes which are inclined and protrudes from the recessed bottoms in a direction toward the outer end.
  • the reinforcement bar coupler further includes an anti-dislodgement unit having a reinforcement bar passage hole in a central portion thereof, the reinforcement bar passage hole having a predetermined diameter through which the reinforcement bar can pass.
  • the anti-dislodgement unit is fastened to the outer end of the coupler cap in order to prevent the base spring from being dislodged in the direction toward the outer end of the coupler cap in a state in which the base spring is fitted into the coupler cap.
  • the reinforcement bar coupler according to the present invention is characterized in that the base spring has a rounded portion which is roundly machined along each corner of upper edges of the joints such that, when the clamping spring is moved in the direction toward the outer end of the coupler cap along the inclined taper plane, an upper edge of each of the joints overlaps an inner portion of a lower edge of an adjacent joint and an inner diameter of the base spring is decreased under an external force.
  • the reinforcement bar coupler according to the present invention is characterized in that the clamping spring has clamping taper planes, which correspond to the inclined taper planes such that the clamping spring is slideable and movable along the inclined taper plane, and an angled corner portion, a part of which thrusts into the reinforcement bar when the diameter of the clamping spring is decreased.
  • the reinforcement bar coupler according to the present invention is characterized by further including a one-touch connecting means which prevents the clamping spring from interfering with insertion of the reinforcement bar while the reinforcement bar is being inserted into the coupler cap, and causes the clamping spring to hold the reinforcement bar when the insertion of the reinforcement bar into the coupler cap is completed.

  • the reinforcement bar coupler of the present invention having the above-described configurations, it is possible to easily connect and couple reinforcement bars with one touch based on a change in the diameter of the clamping springs caused by twisting using a relatively simple configuration. Since the bottom and the inclined taper plane are formed without machining the female thread, it is easy to machine and manufacture the reinforcement bar coupler.

  • a guide portion 532 be formed at the opposite side of the protrusion 531 of the leaf spring 53 .
  • the guide portion 532 guides the clamping spring 30 so as to be positioned inside by decreasing the diameter of the other end portion of the clamping spring 30 so that the other end 30 b of the clamping spring 30 is supported by the protrusion 531 .
  • the head of the coupling bolt 533 which protrudes a predetermined height from the support plate 52 serves as a stopper which restricts insertion of the reinforcement bar 1 .
  • the head of the coupling bolt 533 also serves to provide a buffering space between the support plate 52 and the reinforcement bar 1 which is inserted. Otherwise, the leaf spring 53 may be pressed flat due to an insertion force resulting from the insertion of the reinforcement bar 1 and thus be permanently damaged.
  • FIG. 8 to FIG. 10 show the state in which the reinforcement bar coupler according to the second embodiment of the present invention is used.
  • FIG. 8 shows the process in which the reinforcement bars 1 are inserted into the coupler cap 10 .
  • the clamping springs 30 are supported and are closely abutted to the bottoms 21 of the base springs 20 a by the hook portions 51 and the protrusions 531 of the leaf springs 53 in the state in which the clamping springs 30 are twisted in the direction in which their diameter is increased, so that a predetermined gap “t” is formed between the reinforcement bars 1 . Consequently, even if there is a difference in the diameter between the reinforcement bars 1 due to characteristics of the manufacturing process of the reinforcement bars 1 , the reinforcement bars 1 can be properly inserted without interfering with the clamping springs 30 .
  • FIG. 9 shows the state in which the insertion of the reinforcement bars 1 into the coupler cap 10 is completed. Since one end of each of the reinforcement bars 1 presses against the protrusions 531 of the leaf springs 53 , the other end 30 b of the clamping springs 30 which has been supported by the protrusions 531 of the leaf springs 53 is no longer supported, so that the clamping springs 30 are elastically restored. Consequently, the clamping springs 30 are closely abutted to the reinforcement bars 1 .
  • FIG. 10 shows the case in which the reinforcement bars 1 are subjected to an external force in the direction opposite to the direction in which the reinforcement bars 1 are inserted, i.e. an external force in the direction toward the outer ends of the coupler cap 10 , in the state in which the insertion of the reinforcement bars 1 into the coupler cap 10 is completed. Consequently, the clamping taper planes 31 of the clamping springs 30 slide and move along the inclined taper planes 22 due to the frictional force between the clamping springs 30 and the reinforcement bars 1 so that the diameter of the clamping springs 30 is gradually decreased, and portions of the angled corner portions 32 of the clamping springs 30 thrust into the reinforcement bars 1 , so that the clamping springs 30 securely fix the reinforcement bars 1 .
  • each reinforcement bar 1 has the opposing rib protrusions 1 b and 2 b on both sides of the body, which is typically cylindrical, in the longitudinal direction thereof.
  • the joint protrusions 1 a are circumferentially formed on both sides of the rib protrusions 1 b at predetermined intervals.
  • the portions of the reinforcement bars 1 into which the angled corner portions 32 of the clamping springs 30 thrust will be the joint protrusions 1 a and the rib protrusions 1 b of the reinforcement bars 1 rather than the cylindrical bodies of the reinforcement bars 1 .
  • the clamping springs 30 are wound while being moved in the direction toward the outer ends of the coupler cap 10 along the inclined taper planes 22 under the frictional force exerted onto the reinforcement bars 1 so that their diameter is gradually decreased, thereby holding the reinforcement bars 1 .
  • the base springs 20 are also subjected to an external force in the direction opposite to the direction in which the reinforcement bars 1 are inserted, and the base springs 20 a have the rounded portions 23 , which are rounded in the longitudinal direction along the corners of the upper edges of the joints 20 a ′ and 20 a ′′. Consequently, the upper edges of each joint 20 a ′′ overlap the inner portions of the lower edges of the adjacent joint 20 a ′, and the diameter of the base springs 20 a is also decreased, so that the reinforcement bars 1 can be more reliably held.
  • the reinforcement bar coupler Based on the systematic coupling relationship of the above-described components, it is possible to easily connect and couple the reinforcement bars to each other using the reinforcement bar coupler according to the first embodiment of the present invention with one touch based on a change in the diameter of the clamping springs 30 caused by the twisting, even though the reinforcement bar coupler has a relatively simple configuration including the coupler cap 10 , the base springs 20 a, the clamping springs 30 and the anti-dislodgment devices 40 . Since the bottoms 21 and the inclined taper planes 22 are formed on the base springs 20 a without machining the female threads 20 on the inner surface of the coupler cap 10 , the reinforcement bar coupler can be easily machined and manufactured.
  • the reinforcement bars 1 can be more securely fixed based on the sliding movement of the clamping springs 30 and the thrust of the angled end portions into the reinforcement bars 1 . Since the one-touch connecting means 50 are provided, the clamping springs 30 can be inserted into and fastened to the base springs 20 a in the state in which the clamping springs 30 are twisted in the direction in which their diameter is increased, and the diameter of the clamping springs 30 is restored due to elasticity when the insertion of the reinforcement bars 1 is completed. Consequently, even if there is a difference in the diameter between the reinforcement bars 1 due to characteristics of the manufacturing process of the reinforcement bars 1 , the reinforcement bars 1 can be properly inserted without interfering with the clamping springs 30 .
  • the present invention having the above-described configuration can easily connect and fix reinforcement bars with one touch based on a change in the diameter of the clamping springs by twisting even if it has a simple configuration, and thus is industrially useful.
