[0001] This invention belongs to the field of building materials technology, and in particular relates to an assembled geocell. Background Technology

[0002] Geocells are a new type of high-strength geosynthetic material that is currently popular both domestically and internationally. They are formed by strong welding or riveting of wide strips of high-strength HDPE or PP copolymer to create a mesh-like cell structure. They can be used as a subbase to treat weak foundations and increase the bearing capacity of the foundation, or laid on slopes to form slope protection structures, and can also be used to construct retaining structures, etc.

[0003] Patent CN201711218179.8 mentions a foldable geocell installation structure that can adjust the position of the unit plates to change the geocell structure range. However, the geocell will not be removed after it is pre-embedded. The internal gears and component hinges are relatively complex, which increases the cost of use and causes unnecessary waste. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problem of complex geocell structures in existing technologies, this invention proposes the following technical solution: an assembled geocell, comprising an installation block and positioning nails, wherein two fixed blocks and two movable blocks are arranged around the perimeter of the installation block, and unit plates are movably inserted into the ends of the two fixed blocks and the two movable blocks, and a movable groove is provided in the middle of the installation block, into which a connecting rod is rotatably inserted, one end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to one of the movable blocks, and a snap-fit ​​block is provided at the other end of the connecting rod, and a snap-fit ​​groove is provided on the surface of the other movable block;

Multiple fixing grooves are opened on the surface of the mounting block, and the top of the limiting block is threadedly connected to the bottom of the pushing block.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the two fixed inserts are fixedly connected to the mounting block, and the ends of the two movable inserts are both arc-shaped, with the arc-shaped surface of the movable inserts fitting against the outer surface of the mounting block.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the angle between the straight line formed by the two movable blocks and the straight line formed by the two fixed blocks is in the range of 60-90 degrees, and the intersection of the straight line formed by the two movable blocks and the straight line formed by the two fixed blocks is the center point of the pushing block.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the push block has a rectangular cross-section, and the insertion slot matches the push block.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a set of fixing slots consists of 6 slots, and the included angle between any two fixing slots is 5 degrees.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the ends of the rotating plate and the limiting block are flush with the top and bottom of the mounting block, respectively.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the mounting block is made of the same material as the two fixed inserts and the two movable inserts, and the mounting block is integrally formed with the two fixed inserts.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0014] 1.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0022] Example 1:

[0023] This invention provides an assembled geocell, such as Figure 4 As shown, it includes an installation block 1 and a positioning pin 2. Four fixing blocks 3 are evenly arranged around the installation block 1. The installation block 1 and the four fixing blocks 3 are made of the same material, which is a plastic sheet of HDPE or PP material. The installation block 1 and the fixing blocks are integrally formed. The ends of the four fixing blocks 3 are movably snapped with unit plates 5. The unit plates 5 are mortise and tenon inserted into the four fixing blocks 3 and the two movable blocks 4.

[0024] Example 2:

[0025] This invention provides an assembled geocell, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the device includes an installation block 1 and a positioning pin 2. The installation block 1 is surrounded by two fixed inserts 3 and two movable inserts 4. The installation block 1 is made of the same material as the two fixed inserts 3 and the two movable inserts 4. The two fixed inserts 3 are fixedly connected to the installation block 1 and are integrally formed. The ends of the two movable inserts 4 are both arc-shaped, and the arc-shaped surfaces of the movable inserts 4 are in contact with the outer surface of the installation block 1. Unit plates 5 are movably inserted into the ends of the two fixed inserts 3 and the two movable inserts 4. The unit plates 5 are mortise and tenon inserted into the two fixed inserts 3 and the two movable inserts 4. The installation block 1 has a movable groove 6 in the middle. A connecting rod 7 is rotatably inserted into the movable groove 6. One end of the connecting rod 7 is fixedly connected to one of the movable inserts 4. The other end of the connecting rod 7 is provided with a snap-fit ​​block 8. The surface of the other movable insert 4 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 9.

[0026] The positioning pin 2 is movably fitted with a push block 10. The angle between the straight line formed by the two movable inserts 4 and the straight line formed by the two fixed inserts 3 is 60-90 degrees. The intersection of the straight line formed by the two movable inserts 4 and the straight line formed by the two fixed inserts 3 is the center point of the push block 10. The connecting rod 7 has a plug groove 11. The push block 10 has a rectangular cross section. The plug groove 11 matches the push block 10. A fixing mechanism is provided between the snap block 8 and the mounting block 1.

[0027] When using the geocell, hold the movable insert 4 and insert the connecting rod 7 into the movable slot 6. Then, fix another movable insert 4 to the connecting rod 7 through the snap-fit ​​block 8 and snap-fit ​​slot 9. Since the ends of both movable inserts 4 are arc-shaped and the arc-shaped surface of the movable insert 4 fits against the outer surface of the mounting block 1, the center of the connecting rod 7 is at the center of the mounting block 1. Then, hold the positioning nail 2 and insert it into the middle of the mounting block 1. The pushing block 10 at the bottom of the positioning nail 2 will then be inserted into the insertion slot 11. Rotating the positioning nail 2 can adjust the angle between the straight line formed by the two movable inserts 4 and the straight line formed by the two fixed inserts 3. After the movable insert 4 is adjusted, use the fixing mechanism to fix the movable insert 4. Then, place the mounting block 1 on the ground and hammer the positioning nail 2 to fix the mounting block 1 to the ground. The pushing block 10 moves on the surface of the positioning nail 2 without leaving the mounting block 1.

[0028] By rotating the push block 10, the connecting rod 7 and the two movable inserts 4 are deflected, thereby adjusting the angle between the external unit plates 5, thus changing the geocell structure range. At the same time, the internal structure and connection method of the device are simple, reducing production costs to avoid waste, and making it easier to produce and use the device.

[0029] like Figure 2-3 As shown, the fixing mechanism includes a rotating plate 12 and a limiting block 13. The bottom of the rotating plate 12 is fixedly connected to the pushing block 10. Fixing blocks 14 are provided on both sides of the rotating plate 12. Multiple fixing grooves 15 are opened on the surface of the mounting block 1. The top of the limiting block 13 is threadedly connected to the bottom of the pushing block 10. There are 6 fixing grooves 15 in a set. The included angle between two fixing grooves 15 is 5 degrees. The ends of the rotating plate 12 and the limiting block 13 are flush with the top and bottom of the mounting block 1, respectively.

[0030] When the positioning pin 2 drives the pushing block 10 to rotate, the rotating plate 12 drives the two fixed blocks 14 to rotate. Since the included angle between the two fixed slots 15 is 5 degrees, the movable insert 4 can be adjusted within a small range. After the pushing block 10 is inserted into the insertion slot 11, the two fixed blocks 14 are inserted into the corresponding fixed slots 15. The fixed blocks 14 and the fixed slots 15 can fix the angle of the movable insert 4. Then, the limiting block 13 is rotated into the mounting block 1 from the bottom. The limiting block 13 is threadedly connected to the pushing block 10 to restrict it within the mounting block 1.

[0031] The fixing mechanism can fix the push block 10, so that the two movable insert blocks 4 and the mounting block 1 are connected as one unit. At the same time, the multiple fixing slots 15 can fix the movable insert blocks 4 and the mounting block 1 at different angles, so that geocells with different structural ranges can be used to meet different environmental requirements.

[0032] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it.
