Reinforcement structure of rectangular flat metal plate
View Patent ↗Disclosed is a reinforcement structure of a rectangular flat metal plate, which is provided with: a rectangular flat metal plate that is predominantly subjected to in-plane shear, and supports a compressive load as necessary; strip-like rectangular section members that are spliced in parallel with both side edges of the flat plate in the longitudinal direction so as to reinforce the flat plate; and a plurality of square tube-like members that are parallelly arranged for each constant interval in the shorter side direction of the flat plate, and are spliced on one side surface of the flat plate, or are spliced so as to overlap one another across the flat plate between both surfaces of the front and back of the flat plate, wherein the torsional rigidity and torsional strength of the rectangular flat metal plate are increased to ensure a yield shear load, and shear yield strength can be stably maintained even in the transition of shear deformation after the yield.
1. A reinforcement structure of a rectangular flat metal plate,
wherein strip-like rectangular section members are spliced on one surface of the flat plate along side edges of the flat plate, which is predominantly subjected to in-plane shear and supports a compressive load as necessary, in a longitudinal direction so as to reinforce the flat metal plate that is subjected to in-plane shear,
a plurality of square tube-like members are parallelly arranged for each constant interval in a shorter side direction of the flat plate, and are spliced on the other surface of the flat plate, and
the torsional rigidity and torsional strength of the rectangular flat metal plate are increased to ensure a yield shear load, and shear yield strength is stably maintained even in the transition of shear deformation after yield.
2. A reinforcement structure of a rectangular flat metal plate,
wherein strip-like rectangular section members are spliced on one surface of the flat plate along side edges of the flat plate, which is predominantly subjected to in-plane shear and supports a compressive load as necessary, in a longitudinal direction so as to reinforce the flat metal plate that is subjected to in-plane shear,
a plurality of C-shaped section members, semicircular tube-like members, or the like are spliced in a shorter side direction of the flat plate on the other surface so as to form a tube-like cavity portion on the flat plate and have substantially the same mechanical characteristics as a square tube-like member, and
the torsional rigidity and torsional strength of the rectangular flat metal plate are increased to ensure a yield shear load, and shear yield strength is stably maintained even in the transition of shear deformation after yield.
3. The reinforcement structure of a rectangular flat metal plate according to claim 1 or 2 ,
wherein the square tube-like members are parallelly arranged in the longitudinal direction of the rectangular flat metal plate, which is subjected to in-plane shear and supports a compressive load as necessary, so that a substantive difference is generated between the thickness of a portion on which the member is spliced and the thickness of a portion on which the member is not spliced,
a width-thickness ratio of the strip-shaped area in the shorter side direction is 60 or less as for a steel material and is 40 or less as for a light metal material since a shear yield area is limited to a thin strip-shaped area at an early yield time, and
an elastic area is made to remain within the surface of the flat plate in the form of a layer so that mechanical characteristics are stably maintained even in the changes of elastic and plastic rigidities.
4. The reinforcement structure of a rectangular flat metal plate according to claim 1 or 2 ,
wherein reinforcing jigs, which apply a shear force, provided on both end portions of the rectangular flat metal plate, which is predominantly subjected to in-plane shear and supports a compressive load as necessary, in a longitudinal direction and the square tube-like members spliced on the flat plate are not integrated with a small gap interposed therebetween, and are subjected to transition without hindering the progress of the shear deformation of the flat plate, so that an excessive strength increase exceeding shear yield strength is prevented even in the growth of shear deformation after the shear yield of the rectangular flat metal plate and shear yield strength after the yield is stably maintained.
5. The reinforcement structure of a rectangular flat metal plate according to claim 1 or 2 ,
wherein the cross-sections of strip-like rectangular section members or square tube-like members, which suppress rotational deformation to the outside of the flat plate at load application portions in the vicinity of both upper and lower end portions of a rectangular flat metal plate that is predominantly subjected to in-plane shear and supports a compressive load as necessary, allow deformation to the outside of both side edge portions of the flat plate in a long side direction without restricting the torsional deformation of the flat plate, which occur from basic mechanical balance by in-plane shear, and are spliced on both side edge portions of the flat plate in the longitudinal direction, are increased in size so as to suppress the torsional deformation of the flat plate to a low level and ensure mechanical stability.
6. The reinforcement structure of a rectangular flat metal plate according to claim 1 or 2 ,
wherein at both ends of the rectangular flat metal plate in the shorter side direction, the strip-like rectangular section member and the square tube-like member face each other with the rectangular flat metal plate interposed therebetween.
