Abstract
In a bonding structure for bonding a bonding attachment, having an insertion hole formed to allow insertion of a rebar therein, to the rebar, an application liquid mixed with a granular fine powder is previously applied on the rebar or the inside of the insertion hole of the bonding attachment, and then the bonding attachment is bonded to the rebar inserted in the insertion hole. Thereby, the granular fine powder is disposed on the contact surfaces of the bonding attachment and the rebar inserted in the insertion hole of the bonding attachment, increasing the friction force to resist against the force to pull the inserted rebar out from the insertion hole.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
(15) The method of forming a bonding structure of a rebar and a bonding attachment according to the present invention will be described referring to the drawings.
(16) The bonding structure formed by the embodiment is configured as a mechanical joint including a rebar and a sleeve which is a bonding attachment bonded to the rebar.
(17) As illustrated in
(18) The sleeve 1 has an approximately cylindrical shape with the insertion hole 1a formed to have openings on both ends. The diameter of the insertion hole 1a is slightly larger than the diameter of the rebar 2 so that the rebar 2 can be inserted in the insertion hole 1a.
(19) Further, as illustrated in
(20) The granular fine powder 10 is an inorganic granule based fine powder such as a silicon carbide based fine powder or an aluminum based fine powder with a grain size from 180 to 600 m. The granular fine powder 10 may includes a fine powder with a certain grain size from 180 to 600 m, for example, a grain size of 300 m, or a mixture of fine powders with grain sizes ranging from 180 to 600 m, for example, from 200 to 400 m.
(21) The type of the rebar 2 connected in the embodiment is not particularly limited; however, the embodiment illustrates, in the drawings, a deformed bar in which knots are formed on the outer peripheral surface, parallel to each other, with a constant pitch.
(22) Now, the method of bonding the sleeve 1 to the rebar 2 is described referring to
(23) As illustrated in
(24) The liquid for mixing the granular fine powder 10 therein has a predetermined viscosity providing adhesion to the surface when applied. Specifically, the liquid is a synthetic resin emulsion of a water-soluble resin using water as a dispersion medium. As a water-soluble resin, a natural water-soluble resin such as Arabian gum and dextrin, a semi-synthetic water-soluble resin such as carboxyl methylcellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, and hydroxypropyl cellulose, and a synthetic water-soluble resin such as polyvinyl alcohol and acrylic resin can be used.
(25) As illustrated in
(26) When bonding is completed, the application liquid evaporates with the help of the heat produced during bonding but the granular fine powder 10 remains, and thereby only the granular fine powder 10 is disposed between the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 1a and the rebar 2.
(27) By the process described above, the rebar and the sleeve 1 are bonded with the granular fine powder 10 disposed between the contact surfaces. As a result, the granular fine powder 10 increases the friction force between the rebar 2 and the sleeve 1, thereby enhancing the bonding strength of the rebar 2 and the sleeve 1. Particularly, since the high friction force can be provided to the smooth surface without ribs formed on the rebar 2, shorter sleeves can provide the same degree of strength as longer sleeves. The embodiment is particularly advantageous in the application where shorter sleeves are preferable.
(28) Further, plastic working of the sleeve 1 performed to reduce the inner diameter of the insertion hole 1a provides high strength.
(29) The performance is evaluated for the bonding structure formed as described above, with different grain sizes of the granular fine powder 10. Test results are listed in Table 1 and
(30) Note that, the stiffness and the slip distance are not measured for the test piece without the granular fine powder 10, since the pull-out occurred in the test piece under the stress of, or below, 172.5 N/mm.sup.2 which is 50% of the standard yield strength.
(31) TABLE-US-00001 TABLE 1 Secant stiffness Tested Maximum at 50% Slip length stress deformation distance Test piece [mm] [N/mm.sup.2] [10.sup.4N/mm.sup.2] [mm] None 1 130 128 2 130 143 A (Grain size: 1 130 485 14.6 0.06 1180 2 130 461 12.2 0.08 B (Grain size: 1 130 485 12.8 0.08 600 2 130 504 14.7 0.06 C (Grain size: 1 130 453 13.7 0.07 425 2 130 437 14.5 0.06 D (Grain size: 1 130 516 13.4 0.07 300 2 130 491 11.3 0.10 E (Grain size: 1 130 457 12.1 0.09 180 2 130 421 11.2 0.11 F (Grain size: 1 130 264 3 0.68 75 m) 2 130 269 3.3 0.59 G (Grain size: 1 130 276 2.3 0.92 27 m) 2 130 255 1.5 1.41 H (Grain size: 1 130 256 1.8 1.15 13 m) 2 130 254 1.6 1.32
(32) According to the test result, test piece D shows the highest strength, test piece B shows the second highest strength, and test piece A shows the third highest strength. Further, test piece C shows the highest stiffness, test piece B shows the second highest stiffness, test piece A shows the third highest stiffness, and test piece D shows the fourth highest stiffness. Test pieces F to H of which grain size is 75 m or smaller show significantly lower strength than test pieces A to E.
(33) From the test result, it is discovered that the granular fine powder 10 with a grain size within the range from 180 to 1180 m is preferably used.
(34) However, in the process before bonding the sleeve 1 and the rebar 2, when the granular fine powder 10 with relatively large grain size within the range mentioned above is used, it is difficult to adhere the granular fine powder 10 to the outer peripheral surface of the rebar 2 or the inner peripheral surface of the sleeve 1 with the application liquid, and the adhered granular fine powder 10 may easily come off. Regarding this problem, by using an application liquid having higher viscosity or stronger adhesion, the granular fine powder 10 can be kept adhered in place without coming off. However, when such application liquid is used, the rebar 2 sticks to the insertion hole 1a of the sleeve 1 upon inserting the rebar 2 in the sleeve 1, making the insertion difficult, and also the granular fine powder 10 sinks in the application liquid and does not contribute to the increase in the friction force between the rebar 2 and the sleeve 1.
(35) Therefore, it has been studied that, to keep the granular fine powder 10 adhered to the rebar 2 or the sleeve 1 using the application liquid with moderate viscosity and adhesion as well as to provide sufficient strength to the bonding structure, the grain size of the granular fine powder 10 is preferably within the range from 180 to 600 m, more preferably, from 180 to 300 m.
(36) Now, the method of forming a bonding structure of a rebar and a bonding attachment according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described.
(37) As illustrated in
(38) Similarly to the sleeve 1, the sleeve 3 has an approximately cylindrical shape with the insertion hole 3a formed to have openings on both ends.
(39) The sleeve 3 differs from the sleeve 1 in that one end of the sleeve 3 constitutes an insertion part 31 for inserting the rebar 2 therein, and the other end constitutes a threaded portion 32 for attaching the connector 4 thereto.
(40) The diameter of the insertion hole 3a of the insertion part 31 is slightly larger than the diameter of the rebar 2 to allow insertion of the rebar 2.
(41) On contact surfaces of the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 3a of the insertion part 31 and the outer peripheral surface of the rebar 2, which make contact with each other, the granular fine powder is disposed to increase the friction force on the contact surfaces. In the embodiment, the granular fine powder is adhered to the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 3a of the insertion part 31 and the outer peripheral surface of the rebar 2.
(42) As described above, the granular fine powder is an inorganic granule based fine powder such as silicon carbide based fine powder or an aluminum based fine powder with a grain size from 180 to 600 m.
(43) The diameter of the threaded portion 32 is previously reduced from the diameter of the insertion part 31 by plastic working, so as to be slightly smaller than the diameter of the insertion part 31.
(44) An internal thread is formed in the threaded portion 32 so as to engage with the external thread formed on the outer peripheral surface of a connecting bolt 4.
(45) The connecting bolt 4 is a column-shaped member with an external thread formed on the outer peripheral surface.
(46) The diameter of the connecting bolt 4 corresponds to the diameter of the insertion hole 3a of the threaded portion 32 of the sleeve 3 so that the connecting bolt 4 can be screwed into the insertion hole 3a of the threaded portion 32 of the sleeve 3.
(47) The axial length of the connecting bolt 4 is twice the length of the threaded portion 32 thereby allowing one end of the connecting bolt 4 to be screwed into the threaded portion 32 of one of the sleeves 3 as well as the other end of the connecting bolt 4 to be screwed into the threaded portion 32 of the other sleeve 3. In this manner, two sleeves 3, each of which with the rebar 2 inserted therein, can be connected together.
(48) Now, a method of forming a bonding structure to bond the rebar 2 and the sleeve 3 will be described referring to
(49) First, two sleeves 3 are prepared and the rebar 2 is inserted in the insertion hole 3a of the insertion part 31 of each of the sleeves 3. In this process, an application liquid mixed with a granular fine powder is previously applied to the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 3a of the sleeve 3 and the outer peripheral surface of the rebar 2 to adhere the granular fine powder on the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 3a of the sleeve 3 and the outer peripheral surface of the rebar 2.
(50) Then, two sleeves 3, each of which having the rebar 2 inserted in the insertion hole 3a of the insertion part 31, are placed such that the openings at the end of the threaded portions 32 face each other, and one or the other end of the connecting bolt 4 is screwed into each of the threaded portions 32.
(51) Further, the outer peripheral surface of the insertion part 31 having the rebar 2 inserted therein is pressed radially inward to carry out plastic working on the insertion part 31. By the pressing, the insertion part 31 shrinks to reduce the diameter and the inner peripheral surface of the insertion part 31 and the rebar 2 are bonded with the granular fine powder disposed in between.
(52) In this manner, the rebar 2 is bonded to the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 3a of the insertion part 31 of each of two sleeves 3, and the sleeves 3 are connected by the connecting bolt 4, thereby connecting the two rebars 2.
(53) As described above, similarly to the previous embodiment, the rebar 2 is bonded to the sleeve 3 with the granular fine powder disposed on the contact surfaces of the rebar 2 and the sleeve 3 in the embodiment. As a result, the granular fine powder increases the friction force between the rebar 2 and the sleeve 3 to enhance the bonding strength of the rebar 2 and the sleeve 3.
(54) Note that, in the embodiment described above, the shape and the configuration of the mechanical joint are not particularly limited to those of the embodiment. Any shape and configuration allowing the rebar 2 to be inserted in the insertion holes 1a and 3a formed in the sleeves 1 and 3, can be applied.
(55) Further, the granular fine powder can be disposed on the contact surfaces of the rebar 2 and the sleeves 1 and 3 by adhering the granular fine powder on one surface of a thin sheet of which other surface is adhered to the inner peripheral surface of the insertion holes 1a and 3a, or by melt adhesion in which the granular fine powder is sprayed on the inner peripheral surface of the insertion holes 1a and 3a of the heated sleeves 1 and 3.
(56) In the method of forming a bonding structure of a rebar and a bonding attachment according to the embodiment, description is made for the case in which the mechanical joint for connecting rebars is formed. However, it is not limited to the embodiment. Another embodiment of the present invention may be configured as a method of forming a bonding structure of a rebar and a bonding attachment for fastening the rebar to concrete. An example of such embodiment is illustrated in

Then, the bonding attachment 5 is pressed from the outer peripheral surface by a dice 51 having an arc shaped groove 51a. In this manner, the bonding attachment 5 is compressed and deforms to have a periphery having an approximately elliptic cross section, and in the same process, the bonding attachment 5 is bonded to the rebar 2.
(60) In the embodiment, the bonding attachment 5 and the rebar 2 are also bonded with the granular fine powder disposed on the contact surfaces of the bonding attachment 5 and the rebar 2 by applying the application liquid mixed with the granular fine powder, before bonding, on the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 5a on which the bonding attachment 5 and the rebar 2 make contact.

In this manner, the pressed portion of the bonding attachment 6 is compressed and deforms to have an approximately circular cross section, and the bonding attachment 6 is bonded to the rebar 2 in the deformed portion. A step is formed on the outer periphery surface by the process of producing the bonding. Thereby, the bonding attachment 6 is now configured with the portion having an original hexagonal cross section and the compressed portion having a circular cross section.

Then, a dice 72 having a column-shaped protrusion which can be inserted in the inner circumference of the thin portion is pressed on to the end portion of the thin portion. Thus, the end portion of the thin portion is stretched to increase the diameter, and then pressed by the flat portion of the dice 72 to expand. Thereby, the thin portion expands toward the end. Then, the rebar 2 is inserted in the insertion hole 7a in the thick portion which is not expanded. The portion of the bonding attachment 7 in which the rebar 2 is inserted is pressed from the outer peripheral surface by a dice 71 having an arc shaped groove 71a.

The dice 82 is subsequently pressed on to the end surface of the bonding attachment 8. Thereby, the end surface buckles to expand outward. By further pressing the dice 82, the end surface is folded in a two-fold shape. The rebar 2 is inserted in the insertion hole 88 in the sleeve-shaped portion. The portion of the bonding attachment 8 in which the rebar 2 is inserted is pressed from the outer peripheral surface by a dice 81 having an arc shaped groove 81a.
