The structure of the flexible gate to prevent falling

Overview of flexible gates

Flexible doors are mainly made of flexible materials, such as flexible plastics, rubber, etc., compared with traditional rigid gates, flexible gates have better flexibility and impact resistance, flexible gates also have the advantages of light weight, easy installation, energy saving and environmental protection, in the field of construction, flexible gates are widely used in commercial, residential, public facilities and other places.

The importance of fall arrest structures

With the continuous increase of high-rise buildings, the risk of gate falling accident also increases, once the gate falling accident occurs, not only may cause personal injury, but also may cause loss to property, design an effective anti-falling structure is of great significance for improving the safety performance of the building, the main role of the anti-falling structure is to prevent the gate from falling accidentally when subjected to external force, and ensure the life safety of personnel.

Design of anti-fall structure of flexible gate

1. Design principles

The design of the fall prevention structure of the flexible gate should follow the principles of safety, reliability and economy, and the reliability and economy of the structure should be considered under the premise of ensuring safety to meet the needs of different buildings.

2. Structural design

The anti-fall structure of the flexible gate mainly includes the gate, the guide rail, the buffer device and other parts, the gate is connected with the building through the guide rail, and the buffer device plays the role of absorbing external force and slowing down the impact.

(1) Gate design: The gate should be made of flexible materials, with good flexibility and impact resistance, and the gate should also have a certain strength and rigidity to ensure that it will not break or deform when subjected to external forces.

(2) Guide rail design: The guide rail is the key part connecting the gate and the building, which should be made of high-strength and corrosion-resistant materials, and the shape and size of the guide rail should be designed according to the weight, size and use environment of the gate to ensure the stable operation of the gate.

(3) Buffer device design: the buffer device is the core part of preventing the gate from falling, mainly playing the role of absorbing external force and slowing down the impact, and the buffer device should be made of materials with good compressibility and resilience, such as rubber, foam materials, etc.

3. Structural optimization

In order to improve the safety performance of the fall prevention structure of the flexible gate, the following optimization measures can also be carried out:

(1) Increase redundant design: increase redundant design in the key parts of the gate, such as increasing the number of buffer devices or adopting multiple insurance measures to improve the reliability of the structure.

(2) Adopt advanced sensing technology: embed sensors in the structure to monitor the operation status and force of the gate in real time, and find and deal with potential safety hazards in a timely manner.

(3) Regular maintenance and inspection: Regular maintenance and inspection of the anti-fall structure of the flexible gate, timely discovery and treatment of damage and faults in the structure, in order to ensure the safe operation of the structure.

Implementation and application

In practical application, the implementation of the fall arrest structure of the flexible gate needs to follow the following steps:

1. Carry out structural design according to the specific needs and actual situation of the building;

2. Select appropriate materials and manufacturing processes for production and installation;

3. Carry out strict testing and acceptance to ensure the safety performance of the structure;

4. Regular maintenance and inspection to ensure the normal operation of the structure.

At present, the flexible gate anti-fall structure has been widely used in commercial, residential, public facilities and other places, in practical applications, the structure has shown good safety performance and reliability, and has been well received by the majority of users.

This paper introduces in detail the design and implementation of the anti-fall structure of the flexible gate, through reasonable design and optimization measures, the structure can effectively prevent the occurrence of the gate falling accident and improve the safety performance of the building.
