Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of building construction, and in particular to large-diameter GRP pipeline underwater installation and backfilling integrated construction equipment and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] GRP is a new type of pipe material that is widely used in municipal construction at home and abroad. This material is light, corrosion-resistant, environmentally friendly, and low-cost. However, this type of pipe body has low strength and will be damaged if a collision occurs during installation. In addition, this type of pipe is connected only by a sleeve of about 30cm in length, and the inner diameter of the sleeve is only 2mm larger than the outer diameter of the pipe, which requires extremely high installation precision.

[0003] In the Chinese patent application number ZL201821378867.0, an underwater butt joint auxiliary device is disclosed, including a clamp mechanism, a guide mechanism, and a tensioning mechanism; the clamp mechanism includes a circular double-body clamp I and a circular double-body clamp II, and the guide mechanism includes a U-shaped limit frame located on the left and right sides of the clamp I and a guide rod located on the left and right sides of the clamp II; the tightening and pulling mechanism includes eye plates located on both sides of the clamp mechanism, a tightening device connected to the lower end of the clamp mechanism, and a jack connected between the clamp I and the clamp II. This pulling and closing method requires a large number of divers to cooperate, and the maximum water depth cannot exceed 10 meters, otherwise the divers need to decompress, and the number of divers required will increase exponentially. This auxiliary device only relies on floating crane lifting and divers to command the pipeline underwater for adjustment, and has high requirements for weather and sea conditions. The traditional method of stone dumping is to use mechanical equipment such as backhoe excavators to directly fill the stone into the sea. This method is not suitable for sea areas with deep water and high water flow rate. It is easy to cause waste of stone, and the dumping position is inaccurate and not fixed. Summary of the invention
