Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The invention relates to the field of construction, and in particular to a construction method for laying underground pipelines. The invention also relates to a pipeline laying device. [Background technology]

[0002] like Figure 1 As shown, in the trenchless underground pipeline laying construction, firstly, a first working well 6 and a second working well 7 are respectively excavated on the ground at both ends of the designated route, a traction device 3 is arranged near the first working well 6, and a pipeline laying device 1 is arranged in the second working well 7. The tail of the pipeline laying device 1 is used to fix the pipe 5. The traction device 3 pulls the pipeline laying device 1 through the pull rod 4 and reaches the first working well 6 along the set route. At the same time, a plurality of pipes 5 are successively installed end to end at the tail of the pipeline laying device 1 in the second working well 7. When the pipeline laying device 1 is pulled into the first working well 6, the pipe 5 is just laid on the designated route.

[0003] There is a mutually fitting section between two adjacent pipes 5. Each time a section of pipe 5 is installed, a pressing device is needed to press the later installed pipe 5 against the earlier installed pipe 5 so that the two fit each other. Then the pipe 5 is fixed, and then the pipeline laying device with the pipe 5 installed is pulled forward by the traction device 3 until all the pipes 5 are pulled into the channel 2 to be repaired. Finally, the above steps are repeated in sequence until the entire channel 2 to be repaired is laid. This traditional construction method requires the installation of a pressing device that can press the pipe 5, and the pressing device is fixedly installed. After the construction is completed, the pressing device needs to be removed, which makes the entire construction process have many steps, low construction efficiency, many processes, large space occupation, and a large workload for construction personnel.

[0034] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0035] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a construction method for laying underground pipelines comprises the following steps:

[0036] A. The expansion head 11 is arranged in the second working shaft 7. The pulling device 3 pulls the expansion head 11 into the soil through the pull rod 4. The expansion head 11 pushes into the soil and digs out a channel for the subsequent pipe 5 to enter.

[0037] B. The pipe connector 12 is arranged at the rear side of the back-expansion head 11 and is slidably sleeved on the connecting rod 14.

[0038] C. Install the first section of the pipe 51 on the pipe connector 12, and set the fixing plate 13 on the rear side of the first section of the pipe 51. The fixing plate 13 and the pipe connector 12 clamp and fix the first section of the pipe 51. As an implementation method, the fixing plate 13 is installed and fixed on the connecting rod 14, thereby pressing the pipe 5.

[0039] D. The pulling device 3 pulls the expansion head 11 and the first section of the pipe 51 into the soil.

[0040] E. Remove the fixing plate 13, and the pulling device 3 pushes the pull rod 4 in the reverse direction. The pull rod 4 pushes the expansion head 11 to move backwards, and the expansion head 11 drives the connecting rod 14 to move backwards. The moving distance of the two depends on the gap L1 between the pipe connector 12 and the expansion head 11.

[0041] F. Install the second section of the pipe 52 at the rear side of the first section of the pipe 51 , and set the fixing plate 13 at the rear side of the second section of the pipe 52 .

[0042] G. The pulling device 3 pulls the expansion head 11 and presses the first section of the pipe 51 and the second section of the pipe 52 together, and then the pulling device 3 pulls the expansion head 11, the first section of the pipe 51 and the second section of the pipe 52 into the soil.

[0043] H. Repeat steps EG until all pipes 5 are pulled into the soil.

[0044] By using the construction method as described above, two adjacent pipes 5 can be pressed and fitted together without setting up a pressing device to push the pipes together, thereby eliminating the tedious steps of installing and disassembling the pressing equipment and manually operating the pressing equipment, improving construction efficiency, occupying less space, and reducing the workload of construction personnel.

[0045] Preferably, if Figure 6 and 7As shown, a top plate 15 is arranged on the pulling device 3 and on the rear side of the pipe connector 12. The top plate 15 is arranged on the connecting rod 14 and can abut against the rear of the pipe connector 12 when the connecting rod 14 moves forward. When the connecting rod 14 moves backward, the pipe connector 12 will not move. When the connecting rod 14 moves forward, it can drive the pipe connector 12 to move forward, thereby preventing the fixing plate 13 from squeezing the pipe 5 and causing damage to the pipe when it moves forward.

[0046] In step B, a gap L1 may be left between the pipe connector 12 and the back-expansion head 11, or a sliding connection structure may be used to allow the back-expansion head 11 and the pull rod 4 to slide a certain distance. Preferably, the gap L1 between the pipe connector 12 and the back-expansion head 11 is consistent with the length L2 of the sleeved portion of the two adjacent pipes 5, so that when the connecting rod 14 moves backward until the back-expansion head 11 abuts against the pipe connector 12, the distance moved by the connecting rod 14 is just the length L of the sleeved portion of the two adjacent pipes 5, and the fixing plate 13 only needs to be installed against the second section of the pipe 52. After the second section of the pipe 52 and the first section of the pipe 51 are sleeved, the top plate 15 just abuts against the rear of the pipe connector 12. If the gap L1 between the pipe connector 12 and the back-expansion head 11 is inconsistent with the length L2 of the sleeved portion of the two adjacent pipes 5, the distance moved by the connecting rod 14 needs to be calculated during construction to deduce the installation position of the fixing plate 13.

[0047] Preferably, if Figure 6 As shown, the connecting rod 14 is formed by connecting a plurality of connecting rod monomers 141 end to end, so that the connecting rod monomers 141 can be installed successively in the second working well 7, thus saving the space required for installation.

[0048] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the present invention also provides a pipeline laying device, including a back-expanding head 11 for connecting to a pulling device 3, a connecting rod 14 is connected to the rear side of the back-expanding head 11, a pipe connector 12 for connecting a pipe 5 is arranged on the rear side of the back-expanding head 11, the pipe connector 12 is sleeved on the connecting rod 14 and can slide forward and backward on the connecting rod 14, a fixing plate 13 is arranged on the rear side of the pipe connector 12, and the pipe 5 can be pressed toward the pipe connector 12 to clamp and fix the pipe 5, a top plate 15 is arranged on the connecting rod 14 and on the rear side of the pipe connector 12, and the connecting rod 14 moves forward when the connecting rod 14 moves forward. When moving, the top plate 15 abuts against the rear part of the pipe connector 12. Since the pipe connector 12 is slidably sleeved on the connecting rod 14, the connecting rod 14 can move backward relative to the pipe connector 12. After the second section of the pipe 5 is installed and the fixing plate 13 is reinstalled, the connecting rod 14 moves forward. The forward movement of the connecting rod 14 drives the top plate 15 to abut against the pipe connector 12 and push the pipe connector forward, preventing pressure from being generated between the fixing plate 13 and the pipe connector 12. Such a pipeline laying device can be applied to the above-mentioned construction method, so as to achieve the effect of convenient construction and high construction efficiency.

[0049] Because in the actual construction process, the pulling device 3 often drives the expansion head 11 to rotate around the axis and move forward through the pull rod 4, so as a preferred embodiment, Figure 6 and 7 As shown, the pipe connector 12 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 14, and the top plate 15 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 14. In more detail, the pipe connector 12 is slidably sleeved on the connecting rod 14, and the top plate 15 is connected to the connecting rod 14 by an interference fit through a bearing 151. The bearing 151 is preferably a thrust bearing, so that the top plate 15 can rotate relative to the connecting rod 14 without affecting the axial movement of the top plate 15 driven by the connecting rod 14.

[0050] Preferably Figure 6 and 7 As shown, the pipe connector 12 is provided with a slurry inlet 121 connected to the inner cavity 500 of the pipe 5, the fixed plate 13 is provided with a slurry discharge port 131 connected to the inner cavity 500 of the pipe 5, and a spiral blade 16 is provided on the connecting rod 14 and between the pipe connector 12 and the fixed plate 13, so that when the connecting rod 14 rotates, the spiral blade 16 can be driven to rotate. As long as the direction of rotation is set, part of the soil in the inner cavity 500 of the pipe 5 can be effectively pushed backwards, and finally the soil is discharged from the slurry discharge port 131.

[0051] In addition, in step A to step C, since the actual construction may be limited by factors such as the environment, equipment and personnel, during construction, the pipe connector 12 in step B and the first section of the pipe 51 in step C can be installed and connected with the fixing plate 13 before completing step A. In this way, the only difference is the order of installing the parts.

[0052] The above is only an embodiment of the present invention, and the common knowledge such as the known specific structure and characteristics in the scheme is not described in detail here. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, several deformations and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of the present invention, which should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention, and these will not affect the effect of the implementation of the present invention and the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection required by this application shall be based on the content of its claims, and the specific implementation methods and other records in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
