Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a flat gate structure with ecological discharge, belonging to the technical field of water conservancy and hydropower engineering. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, according to the needs of engineering operation and ecological environment, a certain ecological flow must be discharged downstream during the operation of the power station to meet the ecological requirements of the river channel and the water demand for production and living of the villages and towns downstream the power station. Therefore, when designing a water conservancy project, the influence of river cutoff on the downstream ecological environment, industrial and agricultural water, and residents' water, as well as how to avoid the waste of water energy of ecological discharge flow, should be fully considered. Usually, a special ecological water discharge channel, i.e. an ecological discharge channel, needs to be set on the river-blocking structure. This is also an important part of the sustainable development of the ecological environment.
[0003] The ecological discharge channel is a permanent structure and should be arranged in combination with other structures of the project. Generally, the conventional construction gate scheme sets the ecological discharge channel by using buried pipes to connect the upstream and downstream, and sets a gate valve for control. This scheme is relatively easy to implement and has a small investment for the projects under construction or to be constructed; but for the projects already built, it is necessary to first empty the existing reservoir water level to implement the excavation of the existing concrete structure or new excavation, which has a high construction difficulty and investment, and affects the safety of the original structure of the building, and has high technical requirements. In addition, for the small and medium-sized water conservancy and hydropower projects already built, the gate is usually directly lifted to a small height to meet the demand of ecological flow discharge, but this operation mode is strictly prohibited in the design because the small opening operation may cause cavitation erosion damage and also cause vibration of the gate, which may cause hidden dangers to the structure safety of the gate. SUMMARY
[0004] The present application aims to provide a flat gate structure with ecological discharge to reduce the construction difficulty of the ecological discharge channel and reduce the project investment, especially to solve the problems of high construction difficulty, high investment and safety of the building structure of the ecological discharge channel of the already built project.

[0006] A concrete filling body is arranged at the bottom of the working gate slot corresponding to the position of the ecological flow hole, and the top of the concrete filling body is flush with the bottom plate of the gate chamber.
[0007] The working gate body is lowered into the working gate slot, and the ecological flow hole avoids the concrete filling body.

[0026] In order to make the above objectives, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the drawings. In the following description, a large number of specific details are set forth in order to facilitate a thorough understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the scope of the present application, so the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0027] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used in the description of the application herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.
[0028] Relevant studies have shown that the ecological flow is the water quantity provided by a river, wetland or estuary area to achieve certain goals. Under natural conditions, the ecological flow is to maintain the function of its ecosystem; under the influence of human activities, it is to seek the best balance between various water uses and maintain regional sustainable development. Most of the domestic power stations were built in the 1960s, and the ecological flow of the river was not considered at that time. In recent years, in order to implement the connotation of ecological civilization and strengthen the construction of ecological civilization, the majority of small and medium-sized power stations respond to the requirements and implement ecological discharge.
[0029] Referring to Figure 1 , through field investigation and research on many power stations in Sichuan, it is found that many power stations will pull the gate to low opening operation to meet the requirement of ecological discharge, which directly leads to violent vibration of the gate, and even cavitation and erosion phenomenon occurs in the rear side wall of the gate of some power stations. Not only does it affect the gate itself and increase the maintenance and replacement cost, but also there is a great safety hazard.
[0030] Therefore, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the embodiment of the present application provides a flat gate structure capable of ecological discharge, which comprises a gate chamber 1, a working gate slot 2 connected to the upper part of the gate chamber 1, a working gate body 3 inserted into the inside of the working gate slot 2, an ecological flow hole 4 formed in the bottom of the working gate body 3, and the width of the ecological flow hole 4 is 0.2-0.5 times the width of the discharge hole of the gate chamber 1.
[0031] Among them, a concrete filling body 5 is arranged at the position corresponding to the ecological flow hole 4 at the bottom of the working gate slot 2, and the top of the concrete filling body 5 is flush with the height of the bottom plate of the gate chamber 1.
[0032] Among them, the working gate body 3 is lowered into the working gate slot 2, and the ecological flow hole 4 avoids the concrete filling body 5.
[0033] In this embodiment, the width b of the ecological flow orifice 4 is (0.2~0.5)B, where B is the width of the drainage orifice and the opening height of the ecological flow orifice 4 is... In the formula, Q represents ecological flow, μ is the ecological flow orifice 4 flow coefficient, g is the gravitational acceleration, and H represents the head.
[0034] In this embodiment, the working gate body 3 is lowered so that the bottom of the working gate body 3 fits into the bottom of the working gate slot 2; the concrete filler 5 blocks the ecological flow hole 4.
[0035] Specifically, when the working gate body 3 is fully lowered, that is, when the working gate body 3 falls to the bottom of the working gate slot 2, the concrete filling body 5 blocks the ecological flow hole 4, and ecological discharge is not carried out at this time.
[0036] Support Figure 3 In this embodiment, the working gate body 3 is lowered so that a gap is reserved between the bottom of the working gate body 3 and the bottom of the working gate slot 2; the concrete filling body 5 makes the ecological flow hole 4 in a conductive state.
[0037] Specifically, when the working gate body 3 does not descend completely, that is, when the working gate body 3 falls into the working gate slot 2, but there is still a gap between the bottom of the working gate body 3 and the bottom of the working gate slot 2, the concrete filling body 5 partially blocks the ecological flow hole 4, but does not block it completely. At this time, ecological discharge is carried out, which greatly reduces or even eliminates the problem of gate vibration caused by small opening operation of conventional flat gate in engineering practice.
[0038] In this embodiment, an inlet 6 is formed at the end of the gate chamber 1, and the inlet 6 is funnel-shaped. A maintenance gate slot 7 is provided between the working gate slot 2 and the inlet 6, and a maintenance gate body (not shown) is configured in the maintenance gate slot 7. A vent pipe 8 is provided between the maintenance gate slot 7 and the inlet 6, and the vent pipe 8 connects to the gate chamber 1.
[0039] Specifically, the inlet 6 serves to allow water to enter the gate chamber 1, and the maintenance gate slot 7, in conjunction with the maintenance gate body, plays an auxiliary role in maintenance. When maintenance is required on the working gate body 3, the working gate slot 2, or the gate chamber 1, the maintenance gate body falls into the maintenance gate slot 7. The vent pipe 8 is designed to aerate the water flow.
[0040] The application has the gate chamber 1, the upper part of the gate chamber 1 is connected with the working gate slot 2, the inside of the working gate slot 2 is inserted with the working gate body 3, the bottom of the working gate body 3 is provided with the ecological flow hole 4, the width of the ecological flow hole 4 is 0.2-0.5 times of the width of the discharge hole of the gate chamber 1; the bottom of the working gate slot 2 is provided with the concrete filling body 5 corresponding to the position of the ecological flow hole 4, the top of the concrete filling body 5 is flush with the bottom plate of the gate chamber 1; the working gate body 3 is lowered into the working gate slot 2, and the ecological flow hole 4 avoids the concrete filling body 5. The ecological flow hole 4 of a certain size is opened at the bottom of the built flat gate, meanwhile, the middle of the working gate slot 2 corresponding to the position of the ecological flow hole 4 is filled with the concrete to the height flush with the bottom plate of the gate chamber 1 to form the concrete filling body 5. When running, the working gate body 3 is appropriately lifted, at this time, the working gate body 3 is bound by the working gate slot 2 on both sides, and the bottom of the working gate body 3 is also partially inserted into the working gate slot 2, only the middle ecological flow hole 4 realizes the discharge of the ecological flow. The outstanding advantages of the application are that for the built small and medium-sized projects, only the original working gate body 3 is treated to open the ecological flow hole 4, and a small amount of concrete is filled in the working gate slot 2 to meet the discharge requirement of the ecological flow; without greatly increasing the project investment, the problem of gate vibration caused by the small opening operation of the conventional flat gate in the engineering practice is greatly reduced or even eliminated.

To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described, but as long as the combinations of the technical features do not exist contradictions, they should be considered as the scope of the present disclosure.

It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, some modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these belong to the protection scope of the present application.
