Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pipe jacking construction technology, specifically to a concrete assembled pipe section and its construction method. Background Technology
[0002] Pipe jacking is a technique for laying pipelines using trenchless construction methods. Trenchless construction is a pipeline laying technique that involves little or no excavation. During pipe jacking construction, the jacking force generated by jacking equipment (such as jacks) is used to overcome the frictional resistance between the pipeline and the surrounding soil, pushing the pipeline into the foundation at the designed slope.
[0003] Pipe jacking offers advantages such as minimal environmental impact, small construction footprint, and low noise. It solves the problems of road and building damage caused by buried pipeline construction, demonstrating its strengths in soil stabilization and environmental protection. Therefore, pipe jacking is increasingly used in construction projects. The construction process involves first jacking one pipe section into the foundation, then lowering the second section and continuing the jacking process to form a pipe that penetrates the foundation. Typically, to enhance the connection and waterproofing between adjacent pipe sections, both ends of the pipe are equipped with a socket and a spigot, respectively.
[0004] With the acceleration of urbanization, urban underground space is being increasingly developed and utilized. Pipe jacking, due to its unique advantages in urban construction, is widely used in urban underground space engineering. To expand the usable space for underground pipelines, underground roadways, and integrated utility tunnels, the cross-sectional area of pipe sections is becoming increasingly larger. The size and weight of these sections create difficulties in transportation, hoisting, and storage, especially in central urban areas where road width and construction sites are limited, significantly restricting the application and development of large-section pipe jacking. Prefabricated pipe jacking technology is an effective solution to these problems; however, current domestic prefabricated technologies involve complex assembly methods and low construction efficiency. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the application, rather than all the embodiments of the application. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the application.
[0035] As shown in Figures 1-8 , a concrete assembled pipe piece comprises a prefabricated pipe piece 1, a connecting groove 2, a connecting head 3, an assembling block 4, a grouting groove 5, and a prefabricated grouting pipe 6.
[0036] As shown in Figure 1 , the prefabricated pipe piece 1 is a semi-cylindrical type, and the prefabricated pipe piece 1 is a concrete prefabricated part, which is uniformly prefabricated and formed in a factory, transported to a working well for assembly, and then subjected to pipe jacking construction.
[0037] Further as shown in Figure 1As shown, the front end of the precast tube segment 1 has a connecting groove 2 inside, and a fixing block 21 is fixedly installed inside the connecting groove 2; the rear end of the precast tube segment 1 has a connector 3, and the outer side of the connector 3 has a locking groove 31. The locking groove 31 is adapted to the shape of the fixing block 21, and the fixing block 21 can slide in the circumferential direction within the locking groove 31. An opening 32 is provided on the locking groove 31 at a position flush with the fixing block 21, and the opening 32 is used for the fixing block 21 to enter the locking groove 31.
[0038] Further as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the longitudinal section of the precast segment 1 is provided with an assembly block 4, which includes: splicing block one 41 and splicing block two 42. Splicing block one 41 and splicing block two 42 are respectively positioned above the longitudinal section of the precast segment 1. Splicing block one 41 and splicing block two 42 have matching shapes. When two precast segments 1 are assembled, splicing block one 41 and splicing block two 42 of the two precast segments 1 are aligned and interlocked. Then, one of the precast segments 1 is pushed to slide splicing block one 41 and splicing block two 42 together. Figure 4 The precast segment 1, after being assembled as shown, will be locked in the vertical direction and in the horizontal direction.
[0039] Further, such as Figure 1 As shown, an annular grouting groove 5 is provided on the outer side of the precast segment 1, and two grouting pipe installation areas 51 are provided inside the pipe wall of the precast segment 1 to support the precast grouting pipe 6. Thixotropic mud is introduced into the grouting groove 5 through the precast grouting pipe 6. The thixotropic mud in the grouting groove 5 will diffuse to the outer surface of the installed jacking pipe section to lubricate it and reduce the jacking resistance.
[0040] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, the precast grouting pipe 6 is a precast standard component of concrete, and its length is equal to the length of the precast pipe segment 1. The first precast grouting pipe 6 is half the length of the precast pipe segment 1, so that the precast grouting pipe 6 can be installed in the grouting pipe installation area 51 of two adjacent jacking pipe sections at the same time. The precast grouting pipe 6 is provided with multiple grout outlets 61 on the pipe wall in the grouting groove 5. Thixotropic mud is introduced into the precast grouting pipe 6 and input into the grouting groove 5 through the grout outlets 61. The thixotropic mud in the grouting groove 5 will diffuse to the outer surface of the installed jacking pipe section to lubricate it and reduce the pushing resistance of the jacking pipe. The setting of the precast grouting pipe 6 eliminates the need to open through holes in the precast pipe segment 1 to install the grouting pipeline, thus improving the waterproof performance of the precast concrete pipe segment 1.
[0041] Further, water-expanding waterproof glue can be applied in advance at the joint between the two adjacent pipe sections, so as to further improve the waterproof performance of the joint between the two adjacent pipe sections.
[0042] As shown in Figures 1-8 , a construction method of a concrete assembled pipe section is provided, and the specific steps are as follows.
[0043] S1: Hoist the prefabricated pipe piece 1 into the working well, and assemble two by two in the manner shown in Figure 3 to form a pipe section, and the two prefabricated pipe pieces 1 are pre-connected, and the assembly block 4 limits the movement of the two prefabricated pipe pieces 1 in the up-down direction and the left-right direction.
[0044] S2: Jack the first pipe section, place the first pipe section in the jacking direction of the pipe with the connecting groove 2, insert the prefabricated grouting pipe 6 into the grouting pipe installation area 51, wherein the first prefabricated grouting pipe 6 is half the length of the prefabricated pipe piece 1, at this time the grouting outlet 61 of the prefabricated grouting pipe 6 is just in the grouting groove 5, then fix the prefabricated grouting pipe 6 with the first pipe section, the fixing method can be bolt fixing or concrete adhesion fixing.
[0045] S3: Install the subsequent pipe, align the position of the pipe to be installed with the previous pipe section, and connect the connecting groove 2 of the subsequent pipe section to the opening 32 of the locking sliding groove 31 of the previous pipe section, and the connecting head 3 of the previous pipe section is inserted into the connecting groove 2 of the subsequent pipe section.
[0046] S4: Rotate the subsequently installed pipe section by 90 degrees around the axis (as shown in Figure 6 ), so that the fixing block 21 of the connecting groove 2 of the subsequent pipe section slides into the locking sliding groove 31 of the previous pipe section, and the locking sliding groove 31 can limit the axial movement between the two adjacent pipe sections.
[0047] S5: Insert the prefabricated grouting pipe 6 into the grouting pipe installation area 51, so that half the length of the prefabricated grouting pipe 6 extends in the jacking direction and extends into the grouting pipe installation area 51 of the previous pipe section, so that the prefabricated grouting pipe 6 connects the two adjacent pipe sections.
[0048] S6: Repeat the steps of S3 to S5 until the pipe construction is completed.
[0049] The above describes one embodiment of the present application in detail, but the content described is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and cannot be considered as limiting the scope of the present application. Any equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present application should still be included in the scope of the present patent.
