Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of engineering technology, in particular to pipe jacking construction equipment. Background Art

[0002] Pipe jacking machines are often seen in conventional slurry balance (earth pressure balance) construction. In the above-mentioned slurry balance construction process, the pipe jacking machine can only push the unit pipe segment in one direction at a time. This is because the jack cylinder used to push the unit pipe segment toward the hole requires a rear backrest support. The backrest is set in the opposite direction of the jacking. The above-mentioned backrest is mostly concrete-molded backrest. Before the unit pipe segment is pushed into the hole for construction, a backrest needs to be made of concrete at the bottom of the working well. It takes 2 to 3 days to ensure that the backrest is completely solidified, and then the jack is installed. Therefore, when implementing the unit pipe segment jacking operation, it causes low efficiency. When implementing the pipe jacking operation on the pipe segment at the other end of the hole, it is necessary to reinstall the track and re-adjust the machine head, which takes a long time and reduces the turnover utilization rate of the machine head.

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 9 The structural features of this pipe jacking construction equipment are described in detail as follows:

[0025] A pipe jacking construction device includes an embedded steel plate 20 disposed in a working well 10. The embedded steel plate 20 is provided with a mounting position for fixing the cylinder body of a jack 30. The embedded steel plate 20 is provided with at least two push plates 40 for pushing unit pipe sections. The push plates 40 are arranged vertically and symmetrically on the embedded steel plate 20. The oil cylinder of the jack 30 is activated and linked to the push plates 40 for horizontal movement. The push plates 40 abut against one end of the unit pipe section and move toward the opening of the working well 10.

[0026] Combine Figures 1 to 5 As shown, before the pipe jacking equipment is hoisted into the working well 10, the working well 10 needs to be dug first. The working well 10 is dug in the middle section of the pipe jacking construction path. Mounting bolts are reserved in the working well 10 for installing embedded steel plates 20. The embedded steel plates 20 are hoisted into the working ribs 10 by a truss crane and fixed with embedded bolts. Then, the cylinder of the jack 30 is installed on the mounting position of the embedded steel plate 20, the jack 30 is started, and the push plates 40 are linked to push toward their respective openings, thereby realizing two-way simultaneous pipe jacking operation on the working well 10. When the machine head on one side of the wellbore of the working well fails, the other side of the working well can still move normally, so as to reduce the serious problem of the entire project being shut down due to machine head failure during one-way jacking.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in order to reduce the horizontal space occupied by the jack 30 in the working pit 10, so that the working pit 10 leaves sufficient horizontal space for arranging other equipment, the cylinder of the jack 30 is arranged vertically, and the jack 30 is connected to the push plate 40 through a linkage mechanism. The jack 30 moves vertically and links the push plate 40 to move horizontally.

[0028] The above-mentioned jack 30 moves vertically, converting the vertical movement into horizontal movement of the push plate 40, thereby realizing the jacking operation on one end of the unit pipe section, gradually jacking the jacking pipe, and completing the construction operation. The above-mentioned jack 30 is arranged vertically, so that the jack 30 occupies a smaller horizontal space in the working shaft 10, thereby reserving enough space for the installation of other equipment.

[0029] In order to achieve stable and reliable installation of the embedded steel plate 20, support rods 50 are provided at intervals in the circumferential direction of the embedded steel plate 20, and the rod ends of the support rods 50 abut against the inner wall of the working well 10;

[0030] First, the embedded steel plate 20 is hoisted into the working pit 10 using a truss crane and installed smoothly. The ends of the support rods 50 are placed against the inner wall of the working pit 10 and installed, thereby effectively fixing the embedded steel plate 20 and preventing the embedded steel plate 20 from being lifted up due to the reverse action of the jack 30 when it is working.

[0031] In order to achieve effective abutment between the support rod 50 and the inner wall of the working pit 10 and ensure stable installation of the entire equipment, one end of the support rod 50 is hinged to the embedded steel plate 20, and the hinge axis is arranged horizontally. The support rod 50 is connected to a support mechanism, and the support mechanism is used to adjust the angle between the support rod 50 and the embedded steel plate 20;

[0032] When the truss crane equipment lifts the embedded steel plate 20, the support rod 50 extends obliquely downward, and the embedded steel plate 20 sinks horizontally to the bottom of the working well 10, and then the rod end of the support rod 50 abuts against the inner wall of the working well 10. The supporting mechanism is adjusted to reduce the angle between the support rod 50 and the embedded steel plate 20, so that the angle becomes smaller, and then the rod end of the support rod 50 can be stably abutted against the inner wall of the working well 10 to ensure the tightening installation operation of the entire equipment.

[0033] In order to adjust the angle between the support rod 50 and the embedded steel plate 20, the support mechanism includes a support roller 51. The wheel core of the support roller 51 is horizontal and perpendicular to the length direction of the support rod 50. The rim of the support roller 51 abuts against the rod body of the support rod 50. The wheel frame of the support roller 51 is fixed to an adjustment plate 52. An adjustment screw rod 53 is vertically arranged on the adjustment plate 52. The upper end of the adjustment screw rod 53 extends out of the upper plate surface of the embedded steel plate 20. An adjustment nut 54 is provided at the upper end of the adjustment screw rod 53.

[0034] During the actual adjustment operation, after the embedded steel plate 20 is hung at the bottom of the working well 10, a large wrench tool is used to tighten the adjusting nut 54 to lift the adjusting plate 52 upward, thereby causing the supporting roller 51 to move toward the rod end of the support rod 51, thereby reducing the angle between the support rod 51 and the embedded steel plate 20, thereby effectively fixing the embedded steel plate 20 in the working well 10 to achieve effective fixation of the equipment.

[0035] More specifically, the support rod 50 is a telescopic rod structure, and a curved top plate 55 is hingedly provided at the front end of the support rod 50. The outer edge of the curved top plate 55 abuts against the inner wall of the working well 10, and the hinge axis of the curved top plate 55 is horizontal and arranged perpendicular to the support rod 50.

[0036] The above-mentioned support rod 50 is a sleeve rod structure, which makes it easy to adjust the length of the support rod 50. After adjusting the appropriate length, the entire embedded steel plate 20 and the support rod 50 are hung in the working well 10 to fix the embedded steel plate 20, and then the adjusting nut 54 is rotated so that the edge of the arc-shaped top plate 55 abuts against the inner wall of the working well 10 to achieve stable fixation of the entire equipment, and the position of the push plate 40 is adjusted so that the moving direction of the push plate 40 is exactly at the mouth of the wellbore.

[0037] In order to achieve the horizontal progressive pushing of the unit pipe section, the lower end of the push plate 40 forms a horizontal sliding fit with the track 60, and the track 60 is horizontally and parallelly arranged in two rows.

[0038] More preferably, the front end of the track 60 is provided with a material receiving slide 61 for receiving the unit pipe section, and the material receiving slide 61 is composed of a plurality of material receiving slide rods 611 spaced horizontally. The plurality of material receiving slide rods 611 are arranged parallel to the track 60, and the plurality of material receiving slide rods 611 form an arc-shaped plate structure. The position of the material receiving slide 61 and the track 60 in the length direction is adjustable.

[0039] The above-mentioned material receiving slide 61 can effectively scoop up a single unit pipe section, so that the unit pipe section is in a horizontal state with the tube core against the rod body of the material receiving slide 611, and the above-mentioned jack 30 is started to make the push plate 40 move horizontally and parallel to the moving direction of the material receiving slide 611, so that the unit pipe section can be effectively pushed horizontally into the wellbore to realize the gradual pushing operation of the unit pipe section.

[0040] More specifically, in order to effectively push the unit pipe section into the wellbore and separate the unit pipe section from the slide 61, the two ends of the multiple material receiving slide rods 611 are provided with mounting support rods 612, and the mounting support rods 612 extend vertically downward and form an integral body. The outer edge of the push plate 40 is an arc-shaped plate structure as a whole, and the edge of the push plate 40 is provided with an avoidance notch 41. The avoidance notch 41 is arranged along the length direction of the push plate 40, and the avoidance notch 41 is used to form an avoidance with the material receiving slide rod 611;

[0041] After the jack 30 is started, the push plate 40 is linked to move horizontally. The push plate 40 moves horizontally and forms an avoidance gap 41 with the material receiving slide 611 when moving horizontally, so that the unit pipe section on the material receiving slide 611 can be effectively pushed in gradually from one end of the wellbore to complete the pipe jacking operation. By adjusting the position of the material receiving slide 61 and the track 60 to adapt the position of the material receiving slide 61 and the wellbore, it can be ensured that after the unit pipe section is pushed into the wellbore, it can be effectively separated from the material receiving slide 61.

[0042] Finally, in order to realize the horizontal drive of the push plate 40, a column 71 is vertically provided on the embedded steel plate 20, and a fixing flange 72 for fixing the jack 30 is provided at the upper end of the column 71. The piston rod of the jack 30 is vertically downward and hinged to one end of the push rod 73. The other end of the push rod 73 is hinged to the push plate 40. The hinge axes at both ends of the push rod 73 are horizontal and perpendicular to the moving direction of the push plate 40. A bottom plate 80 is prefabricated at the bottom of the working well 10, and a reserved bolt 81 is vertically provided on the bottom plate 80. The upper end of the reserved bolt 81 extends out of the upper plate surface of the fixing flange 72 and is provided with a nut.

[0043] The piston of the jack 30 is arranged vertically, and the cylinder of the jack 30 can be effectively fixed by fixing the flange 72. When the jack 30 moves vertically and drives the push rod 73, the push plate 40 is linked to slide along the track 60, thereby realizing the horizontal jacking operation of one end of the unit pipe section and completing the jacking construction;

[0044] In actual operation, the size of the jack 30 is appropriately selected based on the diameter of the working well 10 and the number of pipe sections to be pushed, the pipe section diameter, and the pushing length. In accordance with existing construction, the length of the jack 30 is mostly 1.5m, the diameter of the fixed flange 72 is mostly 2m, the diameter of the base plate 80 is 2-3m, the reserved bolts 81 are arranged in 16 to 24 groups at equal angles along the circumferential direction of the base plate 80, and the same number of through holes are provided on the fixed flange 72.

[0045] When installing the jack 30, use a lifting device to hang the jack 30 into the working well 10, and then pass all the through holes on the fixed flange 72 through the reserved bolts 81, so that the fixed flange 72 fits with the base plate 80, and then nuts are respectively set on the reserved bolts 81, so that the jack 30 can be effectively fixed and the reliability of the fixation to the bottom of the working well 10 can be ensured.

[0046] From the above force analysis of the jack 30 pushing the push rod 73, it can be concluded that the cylinder of the jack 30 bears the vertical upward reverse force. Therefore, the prefabricated base plate 80 and the reserved bolts 81 are fastened through multiple installation positions to achieve stable installation of the equipment.

[0047] The following describes the pipe jacking construction process, which uses the above-mentioned equipment and includes the following steps:

[0048] The first step is to determine the jacking route and dig a working well 10 in the middle of the jacking route;

[0049] The second step is to pour concrete foundation embedded bolts at the bottom of the working well 10, and also set embedded bolts on the inner wall of the working well;

[0050] The third step is to dig a foundation pit at the bottom of the working pit 10, pour concrete in the foundation pit, and after the concrete solidifies, place the bottom plate 80 in the foundation pit so that the bottom plate 80 is laid flat. Pour concrete again in the foundation pit to cover the bottom plate 80 with concrete, and arrange reserved bolts 81 at intervals in the circumferential direction of the bottom plate 80. Embedded bolts are also set on the inner wall of the working pit.

[0051] Step 4: Adjust the support mechanism so that the angle between the support rod 50 and the embedded steel plate 20 becomes smaller, and the rod end of the support rod 50 abuts against the hole wall of the working rib 10, and is fastened to the embedded bolts on the inner wall of the working well 10 through nuts;

[0052] Step 5: After the hydraulic station is debugged, the single unit pipe section is hoisted onto the material receiving carriage 61 so that the pipe opening of the unit pipe section corresponds to the orifice of the wellbore;

[0053] Step 6: Start the jack 30, so that the piston rod of the jack 30 extends, which drives the push plate 40 to move horizontally and push the unit pipe section into the wellbore, completing the jacking of the single unit pipe section;

[0054] Step 7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until all the unit pipe sections are arranged in the wellbore.
