The present invention pertains to the field of building and bridge structure technologies, and specifically, to a sliding groove type friction pendulum high-pier bridge seismic mitigation and isolation bearing.
Earthquakes are sudden and devastating. Although an earthquake usually lasts for dozens of seconds, it causes a tremendous loss of life and property. This is unmatchable by other natural disasters. Examples of earthquakes are a magnitude 8.0 earthquake in Wenchuan in 2008 and a magnitude 7.1 earthquake in Yushu, Qinghai in 2010. Likewise, there are also records of similar terrible seismic disasters abroad, for example, a magnitude 8.9 earthquake off the coast of Honshu, Japan in 2011 and a magnitude 8.8 earthquake in Bio Bio Province, Chile, in 2010. Although people have made great progress in both seismic knowledge and engineering seismic resistance over recent decades, earthquakes still have caused horrible heavy losses and great casualties.
Bridge engineering is lifeline engineering. Seismic disasters at home and abroad show that, damage or collapse of a bridge in a seismic region not only hinders disaster relief actions at the time, but also affects restoration and reconstruction of the bridge after the disaster. A bridge bearing is an important component that connects a superstructure and a substructure of a bridge. The bridge bearing can reliably transfer stress, deformation, displacement, and rotation of the superstructure of the bridge to the substructure of the bridge. However, the bridge bearing is also a weakest part in bridge seismic resistance. Therefore, it is necessary to perform research and structural innovation with respect to the bridge bearing, and in particular, to a seismic mitigation and isolation bearing.
Currently, antiseismic apparatuses applied to engineering of buildings and bridges mainly include a lead rubber bearing, a polyurethane spring ball bearing, a planar frictional sliding bearing, and the like. These bearings have their own advantages, but still have some disadvantages in actual application processes. The lead rubber bearing has poor durability and a low bearing capacity, and may be aged easily. A rubber material becomes hard at a low temperature, and becomes soft and consumes less energy at a high temperature. In addition, lead in the lead rubber bearing may cause environmental pollution or the like. The polyurethane spring ball bearing has poor durability, and after yielding to external force, has little displacement. The planar frictional sliding bearing has poor pullout resistance or overturn resistance performance, has no restoration capability, and therefore, when applied, needs to cooperate with other types of bearings that have restoration force. In addition, although conventional bearings have seismic mitigation functions to some extent, few of the bearings have a structure that ensures that a bridge, a bearing, and a pier are always interconnected and prevents bridge falling during an earthquake. Currently, a method for solving bridge falling during an earthquake is to additionally configure an apparatus for preventing bridge falling. However, this causes a series of problems such as a huge structure and cost increase.
The present invention provides a sliding groove type friction pendulum high-pier bridge seismic mitigation and isolation bearing that is practical and perfect and can solve the foregoing problem.
Objectives of the present invention are to overcome disadvantages of the prior art and provide a sliding groove type friction pendulum high-pier bridge seismic mitigation and isolation bearing. The bearing satisfies normal use of building and bridge structures under normal working conditions. Under seismic working conditions, the bearing depends on a seismic mitigation and isolation apparatus formed by a hysteretic damping component, a bearing positioning structure, a butterfly-shaped spring component, and a bearing limiting structure. The bearing has seismic mitigation and isolation functions of a conventional bearing.

Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
(1) Currently, research and design of various seismic mitigation apparatuses are mainly based on seismic mitigation purposes, and excessive relative displacement of a pier and a bridge due to a long-term nonlinear effect of a high pier is not considered in the design. The present invention uses a sliding groove type structure to effectively solve a problem of a cumulative effect caused by factors such as a temperature effect cycle and braking force.
(2) In use of a conventional hyperbolic spheroid friction pendulum bearing, a superstructure such as a bridge is subject to great vertical displacement or rotational displacement, and this has an extremely adverse impact on building and bridge structures under seismic working conditions. The butterfly-shaped spring component, hysteretic damping component, and bearing limiting structure used in the present invention, depending on their resilient restoration and hysteresis features during an earthquake, help reduce excessive displacement and rotation angles, and can absorb massive seismic energy. A seismic mitigation and isolation effective is very good.
(3) A conventional bearing uses a limiting screw or an anti-shearing bolt to limit a relative position of the bearing under normal working conditions. However, under seismic working conditions, after the anti-shearing bolt is cut off, the bearing cannot be restored to a normal position after an earthquake even if the earthquake is a low-magnitude earthquake. In the present invention, both the butterfly-shaped spring component and the hysteretic damping component can provide deformation and restoration for the bearing under seismic working conditions. This is of great significance for performance of the bearing in building and bridge engineering.

A design concept and an operating principle of the present invention under various working conditions are as follows:
Under normal working conditions, the bearing in the present invention bears the whole bridge by using the hyperbolic spheroid 7, the bearing positioning structure 6, and the bearing limiting structure 9, and a long-term nonlinear effect caused by factors such as a temperature effect cycle and braking force is overcome by using the sliding groove type structure formed by the upper connecting steel plate 1 and the upper bearing plate 2, and the sliding groove type structure formed by the lower connecting steel plate 5 and the lower bearing plate 4.
Under low-magnitude seismic working conditions, the anti-shearing bolt on the bearing positioning structure 6 of the bearing in the present invention is cut off, and the hyperbolic spheroid 7, the upper bearing plate 2, and the lower bearing plate 4 together consume massive seismic energy depending on the upper spherical sliding friction pair and the lower spherical sliding friction pair formed by the hyperbolic spheroid 7, the upper bearing plate 2, and the lower bearing plate 4. In addition, the hyperbolic spheroid 7 may be further used to implement repetitive conversion between kinetic energy and potential energy and consume seismic energy. In addition, under such working conditions, the butterfly-shaped spring component 8 and the hysteretic damping component 3 enter a resilient deformation stage and absorb seismic energy.
Under high-magnitude seismic working conditions, the hysteretic damping component 3 of the bearing in the present invention has great resilient deformation, and the butterfly-shaped spring component 8 has greater resilient deformation under action of external force. Under worse working conditions, the shearing bolt connected to the hysteretic damping component 3 is cut off, the hysteretic damping component 3 has resilient deformation and even the shearing bolt is cut off, the butterfly-shaped spring 82 has resilient deformation, and the hyperbolic spheroid friction pair and the sliding groove type structure together absorb and consume seismic energy under such working conditions. Under extreme conditions, depending on the bearing limiting structure 9 and the sliding groove type structure, the present invention prevents excessive displacement and rotation of various components of the bearing, further prevents breaking of the bearing and prevents bridge falling, ensures that a major disaster such as bridge falling does not occur under seismic working conditions, and ensures timely and fast repair of the bridge after the earthquake.
In the present invention, the foregoing structures may be properly designed and selected according to structural characteristics of buildings and bridges and local geological conditions.
