Bridges early designed have low technical standards, poor traffic capacity and technical conditions, and low design load standards. After years of frequent operation of heavy traffic, there are generally problems such as aging and serious decline, and most of these bridges are now in a state of “working with sick”. Because of their present poor technical condition and low bearing capacity, these bridges cannot meet the needs of current transportation, thus forming the “bottleneck” of highway transportation and seriously affecting the smoothness of the whole highway line. Therefore, in order to improve the traffic capacity of the road network and ensure the safe operation of the existing bridges, it is necessary to carry out technical transformation. However, due to the low box room of the old reinforced concrete low-box girder, it is not convenient for people to enter, which brings great difficulties to the internal maintenance and reinforcement construction; traditional reinforcement methods of old bridges usually include increasing section, increasing reinforcement, increasing reinforcement ratio, etc., which may increase the cross-section of concrete and the dead weight of the bridge structure.
In response to the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention aims to provide an intelligent reinforcing support for reinforced concrete low-box girders and a method for minimally invasive reinforcement, by minimally invasive drilling of the bridge deck plate and adding the intelligent reinforcing supports inside the box girders, which can effectively reduce the cracks in the web and bridge deck and improve the bridge bearing capacity without significantly increasing the dead weight of the bridge.

The torsion spring 5 provided on a first side of the ratchet 13 of the one-way rotation structure is fixed by a sleeve and a key; specifically, a first end of the torsion spring 5 is welded to a first sleeve 20 being sleeved on the connecting shaft 27 and rotating synchronously with the connecting shaft by means of the key, and a second end of the torsion spring 5 is stuck in a slot opened in a second sleeve 15 being welded to the ratchet. A diameter of the connecting shaft 27 is provided to be different in sections to restrict the position of the first sleeve and the position of the ratchet. An angle sensor 12 being a hollow angle sensor is provided on a second side of the ratchet 13 of the one-way rotation support structure, and a battery and a data uploading device are fixed on the angle sensor 12. An outer part of the angle sensor 12 is fixed to the supporting base, and a hollow shaft of the angle sensor is connected to a third sleeve 28 welded to the ratchet by means of the key. The supporting rod 2 and the ratchet 13 are as a whole, and the end of the supporting rod 2 is a hemispherical surface covered with a rubber pad 1, and a lock catch welded to a side of the supporting rod 2 is connected with an automatic lock.

A remaining part of the ratchet is provided with one-way sloping teeth.
The first main body and the second main body are provided with three identical one-way rotation support structures, respectively; the supporting rods of three one-way rotation support structures on the first main body may rotate from bottom to top, and the supporting rods of three one-way rotation support structures on the second main body may rotate from top to bottom. The outer sides of the first main body and the second main body are provided with three automatic locks 10, respectively; each the automatic lock 10 is connected with the lock catch fixed to the supporting rod, and after the automatic lock 10 receiving an instruction, a latch of the automatic lock is retracted and the supporting rod is rotated due to the torsional force of the torsion spring. Further, the three automatic locks on the first main body 16 are provided below the three supporting rods on the first main body, and the automatic locks on the second main body 9 are provided above the supporting rods on the second main body.
A hinged support is fixed by welding on an upper side and a lower side of each the supporting base on the first main body 16 and the second main body 9, respectively; the pawl 4 is provided on the hinged support, and the pawl 4 rides on the ratchet and is connected to a compression spring; the pawl 4 cooperates with the ratchet may make the supporting rod rotate in one direction and cannot rotate in an opposite direction.
