Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a grounding pile, in particular to an auxiliary tool and method for installing and removing a grounding pile. Background Art

[0002] A certain area is located in a hilly area with many mountains and forests. The soil is mixed with rocks and the soil is hard and compacted. Especially in hilly and mountainous areas, it is difficult to drill holes in the land. The installation and removal of grounding piles are very frequent in the construction of distribution networks. According to statistics, the distribution network in this area has been transformed on a large scale from 2017 to 2020, with a total of 677.3 kilometers of 10kV and below lines built, 665 new substations, and 681 old substations renovated. There are more than 600 construction projects per year. According to the project content, the installation and removal of grounding piles alone is as high as more than 2,000 times per year. According to the "Construction and Acceptance Specifications for Grounding Devices for Electrical Installation Engineering", the depth of grounding piles into the ground is ≥0.6 meters, and the insulation strength and quality of grounding piles must meet the requirements of safe electricity use. At this stage of construction, the installation of grounding piles is basically hammered into the soil with a hammer. The installation process relies purely on manual construction, which poses the following safety hazards: 1. The labor intensity is high and personnel are easily injured. 2. The grounding pile body is easily damaged and bent under the impact of gravity, affecting the grounding discharge performance and endangering the personal safety of the power grid. 3. The installation and disassembly speed is greatly affected by the environmental soil. 4. The construction progress is slow and the work efficiency is low.

[0003] Under the background of high-quality, high-standard and high-density distribution network safety construction, the progress and construction quality of grounding pile installation and removal will directly affect the safety of power grid and personnel as well as the progress of the project. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an auxiliary tool and method for installing and removing grounding piles, which can greatly improve the efficiency of distribution network construction and reduce safety hazards.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: A grounding pile installation and removal auxiliary tool comprises a force transmission part, on which a force applying part is slidably provided, and the force applying part is limited and stressed by limiting parts at the upper and lower ends of the force transmission part; a bayonet mechanism is installed at the bottom of the limiting part at the lower end of the force transmission part, and the bayonet mechanism is connected to the grounding pile.

[0006] The force transmission part is a rod body, and the force application part is freely sleeved on the rod body through a through hole.

[0007] The force applying part is a hand hammer.

[0008] The limiting part comprises an upper end and a lower end, and the upper end and the lower end are threadedly connected to the force transmission part and are tightened by radial screws.

[0009] The upper end and the lower end are both circular plates, and the area of ​​the circular plates is larger than the area of ​​the force transmission part.

[0010] A handle is installed on one side of the upper end.

[0011] The bayonet mechanism comprises a cylinder with an opening at the lower end, the lower end of the first slot is flush with the opening of the cylinder, and the upper end extends a certain length along the axial direction; the upper end of the second slot is connected to the first slot, and the lower end is spaced from the first slot to form a hook.

[0012] A method for installing and removing a grounding pile comprises the following steps: Step 1: Insert the grounding stake from the first notch of the bayonet mechanism and lock it in the second notch; Step 2: Select a fixed position of the grounding pile on the ground, align the device with the grounding pile vertically and drive it in, hold the handle with one hand and the force-applying part with the other hand, pull the force-applying part up for a distance and then smash it down to the lower end, and use inertia to repeat this action until the grounding pile is effectively driven into the target position; Step 3: After the work is completed, remove the grounding pile, then hit the upper end with a hammer, and use inertia to gradually pull out the grounding pile.

[0013] The present invention provides a grounding pile installation and removal auxiliary tool and method, which has the following technical effects: 1) The traditional installation of grounding piles requires at least two people. One of them holds the grounding pile and aligns it with the driving point. He is mainly responsible for stabilizing the pile body and keeping it straight to avoid it from being tilted. The other person is responsible for swinging a sledgehammer to hit the top end of the grounding pile downwards to drive it into the ground. The removal operation requires the operator to pull it out with force or use a sledgehammer to hit the end upwards to drive the grounding pile out of the ground. Possible risks during the operation include: 1. Sledgehammers are usually heavy and it is difficult for people to swing them; 2. During the installation operation, the swing range and trajectory of the sledgehammer are different each time and can only be controlled by the operator himself. If the striking point is not aimed or the swing range is fixed, it may be operated incorrectly and injure another person or surrounding personnel; 3. Affected by the environment and soil quality, it is very time-consuming and laborious to drive and remove grounding piles in places with hard soil; 4. If the operation is too forceful, the grounding pile may be damaged.

[0014] This device can connect the grounding pile with the main body as one, and only one person is required to operate it. The force-applying part cleverly uses the inertia principle. During the removal and installation operations, it only needs to slide the force-applying part up and down to collide with the limit end. The generated inertial force can quickly drive the grounding pile into the ground or pull it out, and it is more labor-saving. At the same time, the range of movement of the force-applying part is controlled by the limit end, avoiding the risk of instability caused by using a sledgehammer.

[0015] 2) The hammer impact force generated by this device is mainly borne by the limit end of the device. The grounding pile body is connected to the bayonet device and will not bear too much force. The chromium-molybdenum steel used in this device is hard, and compared with operating a sledgehammer, it does not require too much force to operate the force-applying part, so it will not cause damage to the grounding pile. The impact force caused by the force-applying part mainly drives the entire device and uses inertia to complete the operation.

[0016] 3) The function of the bayonet mechanism provided in the device is to connect the grounding pile with the device. Firstly, it is convenient for one person to operate, and secondly, it can utilize the principle of inertia and use the impact force caused by the force-applying part to drive the entire device.

[0017] 4) By using chromium-molybdenum steel, the unit price of chromium-molybdenum steel is lower than that of alloy steel, and the performance is better than that of carbon steel.

[0018] 5) By adopting a gourd-shaped hand hammer, the contact surface of the action point is increased on the basis of the "I"-shaped operating head, and the impact force on the end head is minimized; the inertia is greater, and the sliding operating head is more labor-saving when operating.

[0019] 6) Patent application number "201721470900.8" ​​"A special hammer for disassembling transmission pins", The differences between the present application and the comparative document are as follows: 1) The present application and the comparative document have different usage scenarios and objects. The device in the comparative document is specifically used for disassembling transmission pins, while the present application is mainly used for installing and disassembling grounding piles that are larger and longer than the pins; 2) The connection part between the device and the pin in the comparative document is mainly customized according to the mechanical characteristics of the pin, while the connection part between the device and the grounding pile is a special clip for the grounding pile, which can facilitate the installation and disassembly of the grounding pile; 3) The present application only requires one person to operate, which is more labor-saving than the device mentioned in the comparative document.

[0020] 7) The traditional construction process will cause damage to the grounding piles, with an average damage rate of 11.11%, especially when dismantling the grounding piles, the damage rate reaches 100%; the traditional construction process takes an average of 28.8 minutes, of which the correction time is an average of 20.75 minutes, accounting for 72%, and the operation time is an average of 8.05 minutes, accounting for 28%; the single installation and removal time of the grounding pile using this device is ≤9 minutes; the damage rate of the grounding pile is ≤2%.
