The first mounting frame is provided with a sliding table in a length direction, a sliding block of the sliding table is provided with a bi-directional hydraulic cylinder perpendicular to a width direction of the first mounting frame, output ends of the bi-directional hydraulic cylinder are provided with a first connecting block parallel to a height direction of the first mounting frame respectively, the first connecting blocks arranged on two sides are provided with a left sliding rod and a right sliding rod respectively, one end of the left sliding rod is slidably sleeved with one end of the right sliding rod, and a second connecting block, parallel to the first connecting blocks, is arranged at the other end of the left sliding rod and the right sliding rod respectively.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1 . A prestressed strengthening apparatus for a prefabricated highway bridge, comprising a first mounting frame in a length direction of a strengthening component, wherein the first mounting frame is provided with a sliding table in a length direction; a sliding block of the sliding table is provided with a bi-directional hydraulic cylinder perpendicular to a width direction of the first mounting frame; output ends of the bi-directional hydraulic cylinder are provided with a first connecting block parallel to a height direction of the first mounting frame respectively; the first connecting blocks arranged on two sides are provided with a left sliding rod and a right sliding rod respectively; one end of the left sliding rod is slidably sleeved with one end of the right sliding rod; a pair of second connecting blocks, parallel to the first connecting blocks, are arranged at the other ends of the left sliding rod and the right sliding rod respectively; the second connecting blocks are provided with a hydraulic push rod respectively; a first clamping plate is arranged at an end part of the hydraulic push rod; a second clamping plate detachably connected to the first clamping plate is arranged on a surface of the first clamping plate; and the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate are perpendicular to the width direction of the first mounting frame, wherein polished rods are symmetrically arranged above the left sliding rod and the right sliding rod; two third connecting blocks are respectively arranged at two opposite ends of the pair of polished rods, and the third connecting blocks connecting the polished rods to the second connecting blocks; two sliding plates are respectively arranged at two opposite ends of the polished rods; a telescopic roller mechanism perpendicular to each sliding plate is arranged on an upper surface of the corresponding sliding plate; reset springs are arranged between the two sliding plates, and are sleeved on the polished rods, with two ends of each of the reset springs tightly contacted to the sliding plates; the sliding block is further provided with a second mounting frame; a mounting plate is arranged at an upper end of the second mounting frame, located above the first mounting frame, and provided with at least one driving motor; and a first wire winding wheel and a second wire winding wheel are arranged at an output end of the driving motor, and are each provided with a pull rope with one end of the pull rope fixedly connected thereto, and the other end of the pull rope fixedly connected to the sliding plate.

2 . The prestressed strengthening apparatus for the prefabricated highway bridge according to claim 1 , wherein the telescopic roller mechanism is arranged between the first clamping plates on the two sides, and comprises an outer sleeve, an inner sliding rod, a slider, a telescopic spring and a pressure roller; the outer sleeve is fixed to each sliding plate; the slider is slidably connected within the outer sleeve; one end of the inner sliding rod is fixedly connected to the slider, and the other end of the inner sliding rod is fixedly connected to the pressure roller; and the telescopic spring is arranged in the outer sleeve, with one end of the telescopic spring fixedly connected to an inner side surface of one end of the outer sleeve connected to the sliding plate and the other end of the telescopic spring fixed to a surface of the slider.

3 . The prestressed strengthening apparatus for the prefabricated highway bridge according to claim 2 , wherein the first clamping plate is provided with a supporting plate for placement of the pressure roller; and the supporting plate is fixed to a side surface of the first clamping plate.

4 . The prestressed strengthening apparatus for the prefabricated highway bridge according to claim 1 , wherein a friction layer for increasing friction force is arranged on a side surface of the first clamping plate and a side surface of the second clamping plate in contact with each other.

5 . The prestressed strengthening apparatus for the prefabricated highway bridge according to claim 1 , wherein the first clamping plate is connected to the second clamping plate by means of a bolt.

6 . The prestressed strengthening apparatus for the prefabricated highway bridge according to claim 1 , wherein two ends of the first mounting frame are fixed to the strengthening component by means of a high-strength bolt.

7 . The prestressed strengthening apparatus for the prefabricated highway bridge according to claim 1 , wherein the strengthening component is a pavement of a prefabricated highway or a deck of a prefabricated bridge.
