AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing high-flow stilling basin structures suffer from excessively thick and large bottom plates due to high-speed water flow and buoyancy issues, resulting in complex construction and high investment costs, making it difficult to meet engineering requirements.

Method used

The design incorporates sidewalls, a base slab, and enclosed components. Longitudinal and transverse drainage channels are provided below the base slab, and induction joints and enclosed components are installed on the base slab. Combined with central piers, this reduces buoyancy and temperature stress, and lowers the thickness of the base slab.

Benefits of technology

By designing drainage channels and enclosed components, the thickness of the base plate and construction procedures were reduced, thus lowering the workload and investment. At the same time, the anti-buoyancy capacity was improved, preventing leakage between the water channel base plate and the bedrock.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of water conservancy engineering technology, and in particular to a large-flow stilling basin structure. Background Technology

[0002] High-head, large-discharge stilling basin structures are often very large due to high-speed water flow and anti-buoyancy issues. The thickness of the bottom plate is generally greater than 6-7m, and sometimes even thicker. In addition, due to the large discharge, in order to reduce the unit width flow, the width of the basin is often made larger, far exceeding the standard requirement of ≤20m width. Generally, it is made into a separate bottom plate.

[0003] Patent CN105239540A discloses an inclined-bottom plate type stilling basin, comprising a trough section, an inlet arc connecting section, an inclined bottom plate, a stilling basin tail sill, and a downstream apron; the trough section, the inlet arc connecting section, the inclined bottom plate, the stilling basin tail sill, and the downstream apron are sequentially connected to form the main body of the stilling basin. The trough section has a horizontal angle of θ relative to the horizontal plane, and the horizontal direction is a diffusion form with a diffusion angle of 0°.

[0004] Because of the high downstream water level, the stilling basin's bottom slab often fails to meet buoyancy requirements, necessitating numerous engineering measures such as foundation consolidation grouting, the installation of anchor piles under the bottom slab, and sometimes even anchor cables, to resolve the buoyancy issue. This involves many construction procedures, a large workload, and significant investment. Summary of the Invention

[0016] The present invention achieves the following technical effects compared to the prior art:

[0017] The large-flow stilling basin structure of this invention mainly includes sidewalls, a bottom plate, and a sealing assembly. A drainage strip is installed below the bottom plate to reduce the constraint of the bedrock on the bottom plate and enhance foundation drainage, thereby reducing buoyancy.

Transverse drainage channel; 8. Backfill material; 9. T-shaped steel plate; 10. Induction joint. Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a large-flow stilling basin structure, including a sidewall 1, a bottom plate 2, and a sealing component 4; the sidewall 1 is disposed around the bottom plate 2; backfill material 8 is disposed between the sidewall 1 and the bedrock 5; a longitudinal drainage channel 6 and a transverse drainage channel 7 are disposed at the bottom of the bottom plate 2; drainage filler is disposed in the longitudinal drainage channel 6 and the transverse drainage channel 7; at least one induction joint 15 is disposed on the upper surface of the bottom plate 2, and a sealing component 4 is disposed on the induction joint 15.

[0024] In this specific embodiment, the width of the base plate 2 is 35 meters, and a central partition 3 is provided on the upper surface of the middle part of the base plate 2. On both sides of the central partition 3, an induction joint 15 is provided in the middle part between the central partition 3 and the side wall 1, and a sealing component 4 is provided on each induction joint 15.

[0025] The sealing component 4 includes a T-shaped steel plate 9, a polyurea sealant 10, an anchor bar 11, asphalt hemp 12, a copper waterstop 13, and a high-pressure closed-hole plate 14. The high-pressure closed-hole plate 14 is installed in the lower part of the induced joint 15. The two ends of the copper waterstop 13 are embedded in the bottom plates 2 on both sides of the induced joint 15. Asphalt hemp 12 is installed in the copper nose in the middle of the copper waterstop 13. The vertical part of the T-shaped steel plate 9 extends into the induced joint 15. The top of the anchor bar 11 is connected to the horizontal part of the T-shaped steel plate 9. The bottom of the anchor bar 11 is embedded in the bottom plates 2 on both sides of the induced joint 15. A polyurea sealant 10 is installed between the T-shaped steel plate 9 and the induced joint 15.

[0026] In this specific embodiment, the drainage filler includes gravel (wrapped in geotextile). A drainage well is provided on one side of the base slab 2, and the drainage well is connected to the longitudinal drainage channel 6 and the transverse drainage channel 7. The gravel can provide a certain supporting force under the base slab 2, while reducing the constraint of the bedrock 5 on the base slab 2. The gaps between the gravel can enhance the foundation drainage, allowing groundwater between the base slab 2 and the bedrock 5 to flow quickly into the drainage well and be discharged, thereby reducing buoyancy.

[0027] In a more specific embodiment, the thickness of the base plate 2 is set to 3.5 meters. Compared with existing stilling basins, the thickness of the base plate 2 is significantly reduced, which can reduce construction steps, reduce the amount of work, and reduce investment.

[0028] In yet another, more specific embodiment, the longitudinal drainage channel 6 and the transverse drainage channel 7 are 40 cm wide and 40 cm high. The spacing between the longitudinal drainage channels 6 is 4 meters, and the spacing between the transverse drainage channels 7 is 4 meters.

[0029] The width of the induction joint 15 is 2 cm. When the stilling basin receives upstream drainage, the bottom plate 2 breaks along the induction joint 15, which can reduce the size of the bottom plate 2, reduce the cracks caused by temperature stress due to the large size of the bottom plate 2, and, together with the sealing component 4, prevent water in the stilling basin from flowing through the induction joint 15 between the bottom plate 2 and the bedrock 5, so as to further reduce the buoyancy force.

[0030] It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention, and no reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0031] This specification uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of the present invention. Furthermore, those skilled in the art will recognize that, based on the ideas of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention.
