Description

A steel bar cage assembly device Technical Field The utility model relates to the technical field of steel bar cage assembly, in particular to a steel bar cage assembly device. Background Technology The steel bar cage primarily serves the same tensile resistance function as the longitudinal reinforcement in columns. Its main role is to resist tensile forces, as concrete exhibits high compressive strength but very low tensile strength. It provides confinement to the pile shaft concrete, enabling it to withstand certain axial tensile forces. During the construction of bridges, photovoltaic pile foundations, or high-rise buildings, piling may be required based on design specifications. The method involves using machinery for percussion drilling or rotary drilling, with the borehole depth meeting design requirements. Subsequently, the steel bar cage is lowered into the pile borehole, followed by inserting tremie pipes for concrete pouring. Additionally, when a concrete structure is a columnar or strip-shaped member, its core section requires no reinforcement, with steel bars only placed beneath the air-exposed surfaces of the concrete member. For isolated members, the pre-fabricated steel bar assembly surrounding the member is referred to as a steel bar cage. Typically, pre-manufactured steel bar structures for bored piles, dug piles, and columns are collectively termed steel bar cages. Currently, most conventional methods for manufacturing steel bar cages involve laying steel bars flat, performing steel wire welding, followed by winding and welding multiple sets of steel bars into a cylindrical configuration. However, this method is cumbersome and time-consuming to execute. Furthermore, during the welding of steel wire rings, angular deviations may occur, making it difficult to maintain absolute parallelism between all wire rings and adversely affecting the forming quality of the steel bar cage. To address these issues, we propose a specialized steel bar cage assembly device. Contents of Invention The utility model aims to provide a steel bar cage assembly device capable of pre-positioning annularly arranged steel bars for steel wire welding, eliminating the need for subsequent winding operations. The device further enables convenient adjustment of the inner diameter of the steel bar arrangement and incorporates clamping mechanisms to prevent displacement during steel wire welding processes. 35 2 This utility model is realized through the following technical solutions: A steel bar cage assembly device, comprising two vertically opposed vertical plates, wherein the upper side of each vertical plate is fixedly connected to a circular fixed disk. An insertion socket penetrates through one side of the fixed disk, which is also provided with a slide rail on the same side.

Sliding grooves are formed on both sides of the slide rail, while a sliding rod is fixedly connected to the exterior of the positioning block, with said sliding rod being slidably engaged with the sliding grooves. A guide channel is formed along the edge of the fixed disk. On the opposite side of the fixed disk, a limiting sleeve is fixedly connected, and an installation groove is formed on the same side. A drive unit is mounted within the installation groove, with a rotating column fixedly connected to one side of the drive unit. A winding disk is fixedly connected to the exterior of the rotating column, where the winding disk is rotationally connected to the fixed disk. A pull rope is fixedly connected to the exterior of the winding disk, with said pull rope extending through the limiting sleeve and the guide channel before being fixedly connected to the sliding rod.

Specific Implementation Method The technical solutions of the utility model will now be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, providing a clear and comprehensive elucidation of the technical scheme. It is evident that the described embodiments represent only a portion of the utility model's implementations, rather than an exhaustive enumeration. All other embodiments derived by persons skilled in the art without inventive effort, based on the disclosed embodiments of the utility model, shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model. Referring to FIGS. 1-8, the steel bar cage assembly device proposed by the utility model comprises two vertically opposed vertical plates 1. The upper side of each vertical plate 1 is fixedly connected to a circular fixed disk 2. An insertion socket 3 penetrates through one side of the fixed disk 2, which is also provided with a slide rail 5 on the same side. A through hole 6 is formed on one side of the slide rail 5, and a positioning block 7 (made of metal material) is slidably connected within the slide rail 5. Sliding grooves 8 are formed on both sides of the slide rail 5, while a sliding rod 9 is fixedly connected to the exterior of the positioning block 7, with said sliding rod 9 being slidably engaged with the sliding grooves 8. A guide channel 10 is formed along the edge of the fixed disk 2. On the opposite side of the fixed disk 2, a limiting sleeve 11 is fixedly connected, and an installation groove 12 is formed on the same side. A drive 4 105 110 115 120 125 130 135 unit 13 is mounted within the installation groove 12, with a rotating column 14 fixedly connected to one side of the drive unit 13. A winding disk 15 is fixedly connected to the exterior of the rotating column 14, where the drive unit 13 can control the rotation of the rotating column 14 to drive the winding disk 15. The winding disk 15 is rotationally connected to the fixed disk 2 and has a pull rope 16 fixedly connected to its exterior. This pull rope 16 extends through the limiting sleeve 11 and the guide channel 10 before being fixedly connected to the sliding rod 9. The positioning block 7 is formed with a bore on one side, wherein the insertion socket 3, the through hole 6, and the bore of the positioning block 7 are mutually aligned. A plurality of insertion sockets 3 are arranged in a circular configuration. A fixed magnet 4 is fixedly connected at the center of the fixed disk 2, exerting strong magnetic attraction on the positioning block 7. A plurality of slide rails 5 are arranged in a circular configuration corresponding to the positions of the insertion sockets 3. Each slide rail 5 is provided with two symmetrically arranged sliding grooves 8 and sliding rods 9, while a plurality of guide channels 10 and limiting sleeves 11 are arranged in a circular configuration. Connecting rods 17 are fixedly connected between the two opposed vertical plates 1, with steel bars 18 passing through the insertion sockets 3. The operating principle of the steel bar cage assembly device, based on the disclosed embodiment, is as follows: When utilizing this device for steel bar cage fabrication, the drive unit 13 is activated to rotate the rotating column 14, which in turn drives the winding disk 15. This rotation enables winding or unwinding of the pull rope 16. The fixed magnet 4 attracts and secures the positioning block 7, allowing controlled sliding movement of the positioning block 7 within the slide rail 5. By aligning the positioning block 7 with a designated insertion socket 3, the steel bar 18 can be precisely inserted through the positioning block 7 and the through hole 6 into the insertion socket 3. The interconnected design of multiple circularly arranged slide rails 5 and positioning blocks 7 ensures automatic alignment when the steel bar 18 is inserted into any positioning block 7, thereby achieving accurate positional registration without subsequent winding operations and reducing operational complexity. After inserting the steel bar 18 into the insertion socket 3, the drive unit 13 is reactivated to rotate the winding disk 15, which tensions the pull rope 16. This action firmly retains the steel bar 18 within the positioning block 7, minimizing displacement risks during fabrication and preventing misalignment of steel wires on the reinforcement cage. 5 140 While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications, changes, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
