Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a cable pipe laying structure, in particular to a cable pipe laying structure with a drainage system and a cross-underpass water system. Background Art

[0002] In water conservancy and hydropower projects, cable conduit laying structures are indispensable structures. When crossing and passing under water systems, cable conduits are often buried in cable channels of traffic bridges. When it is inconvenient to arrange cable conduits in the channels of traffic bridges, riverbed or riverbed laying methods are often adopted. The laying construction methods include jacking pipes, dragging pipes and open excavation and burial of pipes. When water conservancy projects are constructed across water systems, cofferdams are often used to create dry land construction conditions. Open excavation and burial of pipes in foundation pits are simple to construct and have low investment costs. However, the longitudinal direction of the pipeline is usually high on both sides of the river and low in the middle. Once water flows into or seeps into the cable pipe during construction or operation, it is difficult to discharge it. Long-term soaking of cables in water will affect the service life of the cables and make them difficult to repair and replace. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to solve the difficulties in the above-mentioned background technology, the present invention proposes an underwater cable pipe laying structure, which can effectively solve the problem of water accumulation in the underwater cable pipe, improve the cable operation environment, facilitate construction, improve the durability and safety of the cable, and save the maintenance cost of the cable.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the present invention is: an underwater cable drainage pipe laying structure, which utilizes the dry land open excavation and buried pipe construction created by the cofferdam, including cable drainage pipes, leakage drainage equipment, water level monitoring equipment, drainage pumps, external drainage pipes and cable wells. The cable drainage pipes are laid along the riverbed ground line and extend to both banks, passing through the revetment retaining wall and extending into the cable well; the cable drainage pipes include cable pipes, reinforced concrete on the outside, lower plain concrete cushion layer, reducing tees, cables, caulking structure and ventilation pipes. The lowest point of the cable drainage pipe is connected to the leakage drainage equipment, and the leakage drainage equipment includes a straight section of drainage pipe, a drainage pipe elbow, a drainage pipe tee, a drainage pipe cross, a drainage pipe main section and a stainless steel plate leakage collection well. A reducing tee is provided at the lowest point of the cable drainage pipe, and a straight section of a drainage pipe, a drainage pipe elbow, a drainage pipe tee and a drainage pipe cross are connected at the reducing tee, and then connected to a stainless steel plate leakage collection well after being collected. The bottom of the stainless steel plate leakage collection well is connected to the main drainage pipe section and the water level monitoring equipment. The main drainage pipe section is led into the cable well along with the cable drainage pipe arrangement, and is finally connected to the drainage pump provided in the cable well. The other side of the drainage pump is connected to the external drainage pipe, and the external drainage pipe is finally led to the drainage system outside the cable well.

[0005] The water level monitoring equipment includes a pressure gauge water level gauge, a water level gauge power cord and a water level gauge delivery pipeline. The pressure gauge water level gauge is arranged at the bottom of the stainless steel plate leakage collection well to monitor the leakage water level and control the opening and closing of the drainage pump. The water level gauge power cord and the water level gauge delivery pipeline are arranged with the cable drainage pipe and led into the cable well.

[0006] The cable well comprises a cable well reinforced concrete structure, a cable well cover, a cable well sump and a maintenance ladder; the cable well cover is located at the top of the cable well reinforced concrete structure and serves as a maintenance manhole cover; the maintenance ladder is used for maintenance personnel to enter and exit the cable well; the cable well sump is located at the bottom of the cable well and is used to collect leakage water in the cable well.

[0007] The gap between the cable pipe and the cable at the end of the cable pipe in the cable well is sealed with a caulking structure to prevent fire, water and small animals. At the same time, a vent pipe is buried in the caulking structure to ensure the balance of air pressure inside and outside the cable pipe when draining the water leakage in the stainless steel plate leakage water collection well.

[0008] The pressure gauge type water level gauge and the water level gauge power cord are transported to the bottom of the stainless steel plate leakage collection well along the water level gauge delivery pipeline by gravity. When inspecting and replacing, the pressure gauge type water level gauge can be extracted through the water level gauge power cord along the water level gauge delivery pipeline.

[0009] The elevation of the end of the cable pipe in the cable well is higher than the water surface line of the river channel to prevent external water from seeping into the cable well and then seeping into the cable pipe through the cable pipe port.

[0010] A drainage pump power line is arranged in the cable well to supply power to the drainage pump.

[0011] The water level meter power line extends outside the cable well and is connected to the power distribution cabinet.

[0012] A cable support and a cable pipe away from the river channel are arranged in the cable well so that the cable can be led out of the cable well.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] 1. Improve the cable operation environment. The addition of leakage drainage equipment solves the problem of water accumulation in the cable pipe during the construction or operation period, reduces the difficulty of cable protection, greatly improves the operation environment, prolongs the service life of the cable, reduces unnecessary maintenance, and further ensures safety.

[0015] 2. Improve construction conditions and save construction time. The cable pipe is laid in dry land created by the cofferdam, avoiding construction methods such as pipe bridges and drag pipes. At the same time, the cable wells at both ends are also used as working wells to facilitate the later cable insertion, with good construction conditions, convenient construction and short construction period.

[0016] 3. The overall investment increased slightly. Only related drainage facilities such as leakage drainage equipment, water level monitoring equipment, and drainage pumps were added, and the requirements for the cable sheath structure were reduced, so the overall investment increased slightly.

The bottom of the stainless steel plate leakage water collection well 26 is connected to the drainage pipe main pipe section 25 and the water level monitoring equipment 3. The drainage pipe main pipe section 25 is arranged along with the cable drain pipe 1 and led to the cable well 6, and finally connected to the drainage pump 4 arranged in the cable well 6.
