Patent

CA 2709128

A cover plate system for a gap between two structural members is provided. The system includes an elongated cover that extends across the gap from a first structural member to a second, spaced-apart structural member. The cover plate system further includes damped spring anchors for engaging the cover plate to an underlying structural member and dampers for absorbing energy imparted to the cover plate by vehicular traffic. The cover plate system minimizes the strain energy that is absorbed by the cover plate, which results in less cover plate slapping and bouncing during operation.

L'invention porte sur un système de plaque de revêtement pour un espace entre deux éléments structurels. Le système comprend un revêtement allongé qui s'étend à travers l'espace d'un premier élément structurel à un deuxième élément structurel espacé du premier. Le système de plaque de revêtement comprend de plus des ancrages élastiques amortis pour engager la plaque de revêtement avec un élément structurel sous-jacent et des amortisseurs pour absorber l'énergie communiquée à la plaque de revêtement par un trafic de véhicules. Le système de plaque de revêtement minimise l'énergie de contrainte qui est absorbée par la plaque de revêtement, ce qui produit un moindre battement et un moindre rebondissement de la plaque de revêtement durant le fonctionnement.
