Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of underground reservoir construction technology, and in particular to an artificial dam body for a steel-concrete underground reservoir. Background Technology
[0002] Western my country faces numerous challenges, including a fragile ecological environment and severe water shortages. Coal mining further exacerbates regional water level decline and surface structural damage. Achieving green mining is a major challenge that the coal industry must overcome to achieve high-quality development. The underground coal mine reservoir technology was proposed by the "Coal Mining Water Resources Protection and Utilization" technical team of the State Energy Group. Underground coal mine reservoir projects have been successfully applied in areas such as the Shendong mining area in western China. The long-term safe use of the artificial dam body is a crucial guarantee for the long-term safe operation of the underground reservoir, and its stability is one of the key factors for its construction and long-term safe use.
[0003] Concrete-filled steel pipe (CPVC) supports are a common method used for roadway support in coal mining. These supports consist of a steel pipe shell and an inner concrete filling. CPVC components offer structural advantages such as high bending stiffness, non-anisotropic properties, and resistance to torsional deformation.
[0004] Currently, artificial dams often exhibit uniformly distributed failures in the central areas of both sides, the central area of the top, and near the embedded parts of the dam due to insufficient load-bearing capacity, failing to meet the long-term stability requirements of underground reservoir dams. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a method to improve the load-bearing capacity of artificial dams to solve these problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical solution of this invention to solve the above problems is a steel-concrete composite underground reservoir artificial dam, comprising the following steps:
[0006] a. Conduct an investigation of the underground reservoir to determine the number of artificial dams to be installed, the height h and width l of the connecting tunnel, determine that the surrounding coal and rock mass is sandstone, siltstone, mudstone, etc., and determine the degree of collapse of the connecting tunnel and the specific location of the collapse.
[0007] b. After determining the overall situation, transport the necessary materials and equipment, such as seamless steel pipes and joint sleeves, to the connecting tunnel for assembly and welding. The seamless steel pipe model is Φ219×8mm. Based on the dimensions of the connecting tunnel, the diameter of the steel-concrete underground reservoir artificial dam is D=1.2max{l,h}, and the required seamless steel pipe length for a single dam body is 0.5D. 2The π section can be transported to the connecting tunnel in 4-5 segments. The joint sleeve is Φ325×10mm, with its inner diameter fitting to the outer diameter of the seamless steel pipe before welding. The jacking rod is Φ76×5mm, and its insertion position should correspond to the connecting pipe position. The connecting pipe is Φ89×5mm, used to connect two annular seamless steel pipes, and is welded. In the connecting tunnel, the segmented seamless steel pipes are first welded to the connecting pipe to facilitate overall assembly and determine the jacking rod insertion position.
[0008] c. Based on the actual situation, excavate the dam support slots according to the specified dimensions. The dimensions of the slots on both sides of the dam support are 0.1m:1m:0.73m:h, and the dimensions of the slot on the bottom side of the dam support are 1m:0.2m:h. The slot dimensions can be adjusted appropriately according to the actual situation. The distance between the steel pipe support and the surrounding rock on both sides should be less than 15mm.
[0009] d. After the pre-excavated slots are completed, anchor bolts are driven into both sides of each slot from the outside to reinforce the surrounding rock mass according to the actual situation. The anchor bolts should not be driven from the inside of the slot to the outside, and the anchor bolts should not penetrate the slot when driven from the outside, so as not to affect the placement of the dam body.
[0010] e. Assemble the steel pipe support according to the slot, and drive the top rod through the surface of the steel pipe at the position of the steel pipe connection pipe to maintain the overall structural stability of the steel pipe before grouting.
[0011] f. After the steel pipe is installed and placed in the slot, use a mining hydraulic grouting pump to inject C40 concrete through the grouting port. Keep the vent hole unobstructed during the grouting process. Before the grouting is finished, about one bucket of concrete will flow out of the top vent hole as a marker point. After the grouting is finished, use an electric vibrator to compact the concrete. After compaction, seal the vent hole and grouting hole with a metal cap and weld them.
[0012] g. After the steel pipe concrete is completed, weld the steel mesh according to the dimensions, fix the distribution bars and steel cage according to the preset, and then pour the wall with C40 steel fiber concrete.
[0013] h. After pouring, the gaps on both sides, bottom, and top are backfilled with coal gangue mortar to form a whole with the surrounding rock mass, ensuring uniform stress. The weight proportions of the coal gangue mortar are: cement 60-70, lime 50-60, coal gangue 300-350, fine sand 1000-1100, plasticizer 0.3-0.4, gypsum 10-20, and water-cement ratio 0.55-0.75. After backfilling, waterproof gel or waterproof coating is applied to the connection between the dam body and the slots and top to enhance the sealing of the connection and reduce the seepage of the coal and rock mass and the dam body.

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the construction process of this invention is specifically illustrated by the assembly and construction of an artificial dam in a mining area.
[0023] A steel-concrete composite underground reservoir artificial dam body includes the following steps:
[0024] a. Conduct a comprehensive survey of the underground reservoir to determine the number of artificial dams to be installed, the height h and width l of the connecting tunnel, determine that the surrounding coal and rock mass is sandstone, siltstone, mudstone, etc., and determine the degree of collapse of the connecting tunnel and the specific location of the collapse.
[0025] b. After determining the overall situation of the underground reservoir, seamless steel pipe of type 1 with Φ219×8mm is selected. Based on the dimensions of the connecting tunnel, the diameter of the artificial dam body of the steel-concrete underground reservoir is D=1.2max{l,h}, and the length of seamless steel pipe required for a single dam body is 0.5D. 2 π can be transported in 4-5 sections to the connecting tunnel for welding and assembly.
[0026] c. The inner diameter of the joint sleeve 2 is fitted with the outer diameter of the seamless steel pipe 1. The joint sleeve 2 is Φ325×10mm, and then welding is performed.
[0027] d. The number and insertion position of the push rod 5 should correspond to the position of the connecting pipe 3. The push rod 5 is Φ76×5mm.
[0028] e. Connecting pipe 3 is used to connect two annular seamless steel pipes 1, with a model of Φ89×5mm, which are then cut and welded.
[0029] f. In the connecting tunnel, the segmented seamless steel pipes are first welded to the connecting pipes to facilitate overall assembly and determine the position of the top rod.
[0030] g. The dimensions of the slots on both sides of the dam support are 0.1m:1m:0.73m:h, and the dimensions of the slot on the bottom side of the dam support are 1m:0.2m:h. These dimensions can be adjusted as needed based on actual conditions. The distance between the steel pipe support inserted into the slot and the surrounding rock on both sides should be less than 15mm.
[0031] h. After the pre-excavated slots are completed, anchor bolts are driven into both sides of each slot from the outside to reinforce the surrounding rock mass according to the actual situation. The anchor bolts should not be driven from the inside of the slot to the outside, and the anchor bolts should not penetrate the slot when driven from the outside, so as not to affect the placement of the dam body.
[0032] i. After assembling the steel pipe support, drive the top rod 5 through the surface of the steel pipe at the position of the steel pipe connecting pipe 3 to maintain the stability of the overall structure of the steel pipe before grouting.
[0033] j. After the steel pipe is assembled, welded, and placed into the slot, C40 concrete is injected through grouting hole 4 using a mining hydraulic grouting pump. During the grouting process, vent hole 6 is kept unobstructed. Depending on the actual situation, if the construction of the connecting tunnel is inconvenient, grouting hole 4 and vent hole 6 can be prefabricated on the ground.
[0034] k. Before the grouting is completed, about one bucket of concrete flows out of the top vent hole as a marker of the end point.
[0035] 1. After grouting is completed, use an electric vibrator to compact the concrete. After compaction, seal the vent hole 6 and grouting hole 4 with metal caps and weld them.
[0036] m. After fixing the steel cage 7, stirrups 8, transverse distribution bars 9, longitudinal distribution bars 10 and structural bars 11 according to the preset, pour the wall with C40 steel fiber concrete.
[0037] The weight percentages of each component in the coal gangue mortar are as follows: cement 60-70, lime 50-60, coal gangue 300-350, fine sand 1000-1100, plasticizer 0.3-0.4, gypsum 10-20, and water-cement ratio 0.55-0.75. The gaps on both sides, bottom, and top are filled with coal gangue mortar to make the steel pipe concrete form an integral whole with the surrounding rock mass, ensuring uniform stress distribution.
[0038] o. After backfilling is completed, apply waterproof gel or spray waterproof coating at the connection between the dam body and the slot and top to enhance the sealing of the connection and reduce the seepage of coal and rock mass and dam body.
[0039] This invention combines the existing steel-concrete composite support structure with the artificial dam body, improving the load-bearing capacity of the artificial dam body and ensuring the long-term safe operation of the underground reservoir.
[0040] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of this invention.
