[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.

[0024] Specific embodiment 1 of the modular water-bag type circulating counterweight stabilizing pipe device and dynamic adjustment system provided by this utility model:

[0025] Please see Figure 1-2 The modular water bladder type circulating counterweight stabilizing device includes several flexible water bladders 1 pressed on the pipe 7; the flexible water bladder 1 is hollow saddle-shaped; the flexible water bladder 1 is made of a three-layer composite structure, from the outside to the inside, consisting of an anti-ultraviolet TPU layer 101, an anti-tear fiber mesh layer 102, and a silicone layer 103.

[0026] The tear-resistant fiber mesh layer 102 can be made of polyester fiber mesh or nylon fiber mesh. The three-layer composite structure of the flexible water bladder 1 is connected and formed by adhesive bonding, which has the advantages of sun protection, high strength and good sealing performance.

[0027] The flexible water bladder 1 has a water pipe connector 12 connected to its upper side. After water is injected into the connected water pipe, it forms a counterweight, and the weight of the counterweight can be adjusted according to the amount of water injected. After use, the water can be recycled or reused, avoiding material waste. The connection between the water pipe connector 12 and the external water pipe can be a plug-in connection, a threaded connection, or a magnetic connection; correspondingly, the water pipe connector 12 can be a pipe connector with anti-slip texture on the outside, a threaded connector, or a magnetic quick connector, and the pipe connector is equipped with a pipe clamp to improve the stability of the connection.

[0028] In this embodiment, the flexible water bladder 1 is designed to be 1.5m long along the pipe 7. In other embodiments, the length can be freely set as needed. By evenly distributing multiple flexible water bladders 1 along the pipe 7, the purpose of counterweight stabilization of the pipe is achieved.

[0029] The contact surface between the lower side of the flexible water bladder 1 and the pipe 7 is provided with several anti-slip protrusions 11. The saddle-shaped lower side of the flexible water bladder 1 can wrap around the outside of the pipe 7, applying pressure to stabilize round, square, and some irregularly shaped pipes 7. Deploying the flexible water bladder 1 on the pipe 7 is quick and efficient, contributing to improved construction efficiency. The flexible water bladder 1 with silicone anti-slip protrusions 11 will not damage the outer surface of the pipe 7. The anti-slip protrusions 11 are hemispherical silicone protrusions, increasing the anti-slip friction coefficient and ensuring the stability of the flexible water bladder 1 on the pipe 7, thereby ensuring the pipe stabilization effect.

[0030] This embodiment saves more than 70% of the cost compared to traditional town mounds, has a high water resource utilization rate, is recyclable, has no solid waste emissions, and meets green construction standards.

[0031] Specific Embodiment 2 of the Modular Waterbag-Type Circulating Counterweight Stabilizing Pipe Device and Dynamic Adjustment System provided by this utility model:

[0032] Please see Figure 3The modular water bladder-type circulating counterweight stabilizing pipe dynamic adjustment system includes the modular water bladder-type circulating counterweight stabilizing pipe device in Example 1, and also includes a bidirectional water pump 2 and a water storage container 5. The bidirectional water pump 2 has two working states: introducing water from the water storage container 5 into the flexible water bladder 1 and introducing water from the flexible water bladder 1 into the water storage container 5. The bidirectional water pump 2 can inject water into the flexible water bladder 1 and also pump water from the flexible water bladder 1, thereby dynamically adjusting the counterweight in real time and improving the counterweight stabilizing pipe effect.

[0033] The water storage container 5 can be a water tank or a mobile water storage vehicle. A water tank connecting pipe 4 connects the bidirectional water pump 2 and the water storage container 5. During the stabilization of the pipe, the water in the water storage container 5 is introduced into the flexible water bag 1. After the stabilization is completed, the water in the flexible water bag 1 is guided back into the water storage container 5.

[0034] A number of water bladder connecting pipes 3 are connected between the bidirectional water pump 2 and the flexible water bladder 1 to supply water to each flexible water bladder 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, the bidirectional water pump 2 is connected to a diverter 6, which connects to the water bladder connecting pipe 3. The diverter 6 is a hollow shell structure, with one side connected to the bidirectional water pump 2 and the other side having several diversion water interfaces that connect to the water bladder connecting pipe 3. The diversion water connectors can be plug-in anti-detachment and anti-slip pipe connectors or threaded connectors. In actual operation, all diversion water connectors are connected to the water bladder connecting pipe 3. In some embodiments, a valve can be installed inside the diversion water connector.

[0036] In some other embodiments, the bidirectional water pump 2 is an intelligent water pump that can be controlled via a mobile app. A sensor for detecting water volume is installed at the flexible water bladder 1; for example, a liquid pressure sensor can be installed at the bottom of the flexible water bladder 1 to roughly estimate the water volume; or a flow meter can be installed inside the water pipe connector 12 or the branch water connector for more precise monitoring of the water volume. The sensor or flow meter transmits data to the mobile app. Operators can remotely view and control the status of the bidirectional water pump based on the water volume, achieving automatic water replenishment or drainage to avoid excessive or insufficient pressure and maintain optimal counterweight conditions.

[0037] In some other embodiments, the valves at the diversion water connectors can be remotely controlled, allowing the flow status of each water bladder connecting pipe 3 to be independently and remotely controlled.

[0038] Specific embodiment 3 of the modular water-bag type circulating counterweight stabilizing pipe device and dynamic adjustment system provided by this utility model:

[0039] Please see Figure 4The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 2 is that a connecting structure is provided between the flexible water bags 1; specifically, the connecting structure in this embodiment is a zipper 13. In some other embodiments, Velcro or other structures can be used instead of the zipper 13. The zipper 13 structure allows two flexible water bags 1 to be quickly connected, or multiple flexible water bags 1 to be connected together, enabling rapid splicing and extension to meet the stabilization requirements of ultra-long pipelines 7.

[0040] The number of water diversion connectors of the diverter 6 is limited. In order to make the interior of the connected flexible water bladder 1 connected, this embodiment includes several combination connecting pipes 15 and tee pipes 14 to connect the flexible water bladder 1.

[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, each pair of flexible water bladders 1 forms a group; the three-way pipe 14 is connected to the water pipe connector 12, water bladder connecting pipe 3 and combined connecting pipe 15 of the first flexible water bladder 1 respectively; the combined connecting pipe 15 is connected to the three-way pipe 14 and the water pipe connector 12 of the second flexible water bladder 1 respectively.

[0042] The connection methods for each port of the tee pipe 14 and each port of the combined connecting pipe 15 can be selected according to the needs of common pipe insertion connection methods, threaded connection methods, magnetic connection methods, etc., or the connection can be achieved by adding an external connector structure. For example, the lower port of the tee pipe 14 is connected to the water pipe connector 12 of the first flexible water bladder 1 by thread; the combined connecting pipe 15 is a flexible hose, with both ends respectively sleeved on the side port of the tee pipe 14 and the outside of the water pipe connector 12 of the second flexible water bladder 1, and reinforced with pipe clamps; the water bladder connecting pipe 3 is a flexible hose, with its end sleeved on the outside of the upper port of the tee pipe 14, and reinforced with pipe clamps.

[0043] Some application scenarios: soft foundation pipe construction, replacing concrete anchors in substandard backfill areas to avoid uneven settlement; river crossing projects, resisting water flow impact, with counterweight dynamically adjustable according to water volume changes; underground integrated pipe gallery, enabling rapid installation in narrow spaces and avoiding the entry of large machinery; emergency rescue, completing temporary pipe stabilization of burst pipe sections within 30 minutes, supporting simultaneous operation of multiple sections.

[0044] Brief working process: Module splicing: Splice flexible water bladder 1 section according to the length of pipe 7; water injection counterweight; real-time monitoring, which can dynamically adjust drainage or water replenishment; water circulation and recycling, bidirectional water pump 2 pumps water back to water storage container 5; transfer to the next station for pipe stabilization.

[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still make modifications to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments without creative effort, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
