Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic power generation engineering structure design, and in particular relates to a prestressed concrete square pile and bracket connection structure for a water photovoltaic project. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic power generation is a power generation technology that uses solar panels (modules) to directly convert light energy into electrical energy. Its energy comes from solar energy and is a clean, safe and renewable energy source.

[0003] The support system of photovoltaic sub-array components usually consists of a support structure and a foundation. When prestressed concrete square piles are used for the foundation of the photovoltaic support piles on the water, the square piles are not isotropic in shape, and it is difficult to accurately control the direction of the foundation piles during construction. As a result, the connection between the support and the square piles cannot be made using the clamp connection method used for traditional round pipe piles. The usual solution is welding. Welding construction will cause the following problems: ① Due to the large number of photovoltaic supports, the welding workload is large and the construction period is long; ② Difficulty in welding operations on the water: There are high safety risks in live operations on the water; if in frozen areas, choose to construct after the water surface freezes in winter. Although it can avoid welding operations on the water, the quality of the welds is difficult to control due to the low temperature in winter, and the cost of large-scale winter measures is high. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the technical problems of "large welding workload, long construction period, difficult welding operation and difficult to control weld quality" existing in the background technology, the present invention designs a prestressed concrete square pile and bracket connection structure for water photovoltaic projects.

[0006] The screw is a full-thread straight screw.

[0007] The screw rod also includes a matching nut, a spring washer and a flat washer.

[0008] The pile head and end plate are processed and formed as a whole with the prestressed concrete square pile, and the bolt holes are filled with foam blocks for protection when leaving the factory. Except for the pile head and end plate, the finished square pile has no other special differences from ordinary square piles, so conventional machinery can be used for construction.

[0009] After the on-site foundation pile construction is in place, the screw rod and the prestressed concrete square pile are assembled, the foam protection block in the bolt through hole is removed, the bolt through hole is cleaned, the bolt sealing and locking glue is injected into the bolt through hole, the screw rod is screwed into the bolt through hole, and the bolt sealing and locking glue is filled and overflowed in the hole.

[0010] After the bolt sealing and locking glue is cured, the photovoltaic support column with the column foot bottom plate is installed on the square pile head, and the directions of the photovoltaic sub-array columns are adjusted to be consistent using the arc-shaped through holes, and the nuts are tightened to complete the bolt connection between the support structure and the square pile.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, a prestressed concrete square pile and support connection structure mainly includes: a pile head end plate 1, a screw rod 2, and a column foot bottom plate 3.

[0019] The pile head end plate 1 is provided with an additional screw hole 13 without changing the position 11 of the square pile prestressed tendon installation hole, and a screw hole blocking shell 12 is provided at the bottom of the screw hole 13, so that the screw hole forms an independent cavity, ensuring that the screw hole is not contaminated by concrete during the processing of the square pile. The position of the screw hole is determined by the force calculation of the upper support structure, and the position of the support column should also be considered. The screw holes are arranged on the same circumference with the center of the square pile as the center, and the force is most reasonable when they are symmetrically arranged.

[0020] The screw rod 2 connecting the square pile and the bracket is a full-thread straight screw rod, and the top of the screw rod is processed into a regular hexagonal steel rod 21 inscribed in the nominal diameter of the screw rod to provide a force point for the tightening wrench. The screw rod also includes its matching nut 2a, spring washer 2b, and flat washer 2c.

[0021] The column foot bottom plate 3 is provided with symmetrical arc-shaped through holes 31 corresponding to the screw rod passing position on each pile head end plate, with the screw rod as the center. Figure 5 The arc-shaped through hole in the example is opened based on the circumference of the screw. Only in this way can it match the rotation and adjust the direction.

[0022] The pile head end plate 1 is integrally formed with the prestressed concrete square pile 4, and the bolt through hole 13 is filled with foam blocks for protection when leaving the factory. Except for the pile head end plate, the finished square pile has no other special difference from the ordinary square pile, so conventional machinery can be used for construction.

[0023] After the on-site square pile construction is in place, the screw 2 and the prestressed concrete square pile 4 are assembled, the foam protection block in the screw through hole 13 is removed, the screw through hole 13 is cleaned, and the bolt sealing and locking glue is injected into the screw through hole 13. The screw 2 is screwed into the screw through hole 13, and the screw sealing and locking glue is filled and overflowed in the screw through hole 13.

[0024] After the bolt sealing and locking glue is cured, the photovoltaic support column with the column foot bottom plate 3 is installed on the pile head. The column foot bottom plate and the square pile are matched. The arc-shaped through hole 31 is used to adjust the directions of the columns of the photovoltaic sub-array to make them consistent, and the nuts are tightened to complete the screw connection between the support structure and the square pile.

[0025] It should be noted that those who refer to this disclosure should readily understand that many modifications are possible without substantially departing from the novel teachings and advantages of the subject matter described in this application (e.g., the size, scale, shape and proportion of each component, installation arrangement, material, anti-corrosion method, color, etc.). For example, the prestressing tendon holes on the end plate shown can be changed due to different pile types, and the position, number, and specifications of the screw through holes can be changed or varied. Therefore, all such modifications are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention.

[0026] It should be noted that the embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, which should all be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
