High mast light poles plug-in structure

The plug-in structure design of high mast light poles is very important, which directly affects the safety, stability, and maintenance convenience of high mast light poles. The following will discuss the plug-in structure of high mast light poles in detail, including its composition, functions, and design points.

For those who have not been exposed to high mast light poles, many people will question the safety of these poles, especially the firmness of the plug-in connection. Speaking of plug-ins, let's first understand the general structure of high mast light poles.

In previous articles, we often talked about the relevant details and parameters of high mast light poles but rarely talked about the details of the splicing of high mast light poles. Some friends who have been exposed to high mast light poles should be familiar with the overall structure of high mast light poles. Due to the height problem, the total height of high mast light poles is composed of two or more sections of pole bodies plugged in. At this point, some people may raise questions, that is, why do we have to plug in to achieve the expected height? Why can't we directly achieve the desired height? This not only avoids the cumbersome installation and plug-in process but also ensures the firmness of the integrated pole body.

For those who don't know the manufacturing process of high mast light poles, this kind of doubt is understandable. If this process can be realized, it would be great, but it can't be done in reality. First of all, for large lighting fixtures such as high mast light poles, the height is above 40 meters, and even the shortest one will not be less than 15 meters. Then the problem comes. You should know that our largest bending machine, two connected, is only 14 meters, which leads to limited bending and the inability to complete this ultra-long production in terms of technology.

The second is transportation. We know that the most common large trucks running on the road are 13-meter semi-trailers, and others are 17-meter flatbeds, which means that the load of the large truck must not exceed the upper limit of the length of the vehicle, otherwise it will be dangerous. In this way, let alone high mast light poles above 40 meters, even 20 meters long cannot be put down. This is the problem in transportation, or to be precise, it cannot be pulled at all.

We have talked with customers about the structure of high mast light poles before. They are worried that the plug-in is not safe. They asked us why we did not design the plug-in part to be similar to the communication tower, where the pole sections are connected by flanges. The structure he said is very good, but it is not suitable for high mast light poles, because the lamp head of the high mast light poles is a lifting structure. If the pole sections are connected by flanges, it will inevitably hinder its lifting and lowering, which is not feasible.

People can eliminate doubts about the safety hazards of high mast light poles plug-in because first of all, high mast light poles are a very mature lighting product, which has been tested by the market for about 30 years. There is no problem in safety. After all, all the forces on the earth are downward, and the plugs between the pole sections are affected by gravity. They can only become stronger and stronger, and it is impossible to pull them up by themselves.
