Therefore, there is an urgent need for a high-performance connection structure that can quickly, efficiently and stably connect the prefabricated cap and the pile foundation to meet the needs of modern engineering for high bearing capacity, rapid construction and high safety.

[0003] Utility model CN210482021U proposes a prefabricated assembled pier column structure connected by inserting steel bars into corrugated pipes, a groove is provided on the upper surface of the cap, a support column for supporting the bottom surface of the pier column is provided inside the groove, a number of corrugated pipes are vertically buried around the support column inside the groove, a number of main bars at the bottom of the pier column correspond to the corrugated pipes one by one and are inserted into the corrugated pipes, an inner filling layer is provided inside the corrugated pipes, and a concrete filling layer is poured inside the grooves. During installation, the cap and the pier column are connected by the grooves and supports, which is difficult to align and has limited connection strength. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0006] According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a prefabricated cap and pile foundation connection structure, comprising a prefabricated cap, a pile foundation and a connection piece, wherein a plurality of connection holes are provided at the bottom of the prefabricated cap, a plurality of bolt holes are provided at the connection piece, and the connection holes and the bolt holes cooperate with each other and are fixedly connected by high-strength bolts;

[0034] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] This embodiment shows a prefabricated cap and pile foundation connection structure, which realizes a stable connection between the prefabricated cap 1 and the pile foundation 2 through a high-performance connector 3, and is suitable for foundation engineering of bridges, docks and high-rise buildings.

[0037] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of connection holes 5 matching the connection member 3 are arranged at the bottom of the prefabricated pedestal 1. The connection member 3 adopts a flange structure, and the upper and lower surfaces of the flange are designed to be flat, so as to fit closely with the pedestal and the pile foundation. A plurality of bolt holes 4 are evenly distributed around the flange, and the prefabricated pedestal 1 and the pile foundation 2 are fastened together by high-strength bolts 6. As a preferred embodiment, the number of bolt holes 4, connection holes 5 and high-strength bolts 6 are eight, and they are radially distributed in four directions of the connection area in a group of two. The distance between each group of bolt holes 4 is uniform, so as to avoid local stress concentration and ensure uniform force on the overall structure. In particular, an elastic gasket is arranged in the bolt hole 4 to further enhance the vibration resistance and fatigue resistance.

[0038] A groove 7 is provided at the top of the pile foundation 2, and a protrusion is provided at the bottom of the connector 3. The protrusion is embedded in the groove 7 during connection. The depth of the groove 7 is determined according to the height of the embedded part of the connector 3 to ensure that the connector 3 can be fully embedded during the installation process, thereby improving the stability of the connection. In order to enhance the shear resistance, the inner wall of the groove 7 can be designed as a rough surface or reinforced ribs can be provided. After the connector 3 is embedded in the groove 7, a high-performance grouting material 8 is injected through the grouting port. After solidification, the high-performance grouting material 8 is tightly combined with the pile foundation 2 and the connector 3 to form an overall high-bearing capacity tight connection, which enhances the shear resistance, compression resistance and anti-seepage performance.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment, the connector 3 is made of high-strength materials with excellent shear, tensile and bending resistance, so as to achieve high bearing capacity and long-term stability, such as steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) or ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), which has high compressive strength, high crack resistance and low permeability, and can effectively cope with high loads, frequent vibrations and harsh environmental conditions. By using this material, the seismic resistance, fatigue resistance and long-term service life of the connection structure can be greatly improved. In addition, the material of the high-performance grouting material 8 is a high-performance grouting material or a polymer cement-based material.

[0040] The structure effectively improves the compression, shear and seismic performance through double fixing method (high-strength bolt connection and grouting material reinforcement), and is suitable for high load and complex geological environment.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] This embodiment introduces a construction method for the prefabricated cap and pile foundation connection structure based on the embodiment 1, which realizes rapid construction through factory production of prefabricated components and efficient on-site assembly, and is suitable for foundation construction of large-scale projects such as bridges and docks. The method includes the following steps:

[0043] S1, prefabricated component manufacturing stage: The cap 1 and pile foundation 2 are prefabricated in the factory, and each component needs to be preset with connection holes and grooves to ensure the precise matching of the connection components. Therefore, high-precision molds are used to ensure the dimensional accuracy of the prefabricated components and the consistency of the connection hole positions. The connection hole 5 at the bottom of the prefabricated cap and the groove 7 at the top of the prefabricated pile foundation are formed at one time during the mold making process to reduce errors. The connector 3 is embedded in the prefabricated groove 7, and there is a gap between the protrusion at the bottom of the connector 3 and the groove 7 for filling with high-performance grouting material 8 during construction. In particular, the surface of the pile foundation 2 is treated with anti-corrosion to enhance its durability.

[0044] S2, transportation and on-site hoisting stage: The prefabricated prefabricated cap 1 and pile foundation 2 are transported to the construction site by transportation equipment. Before hoisting, the pile foundation position and the cap level need to be calibrated to ensure accurate alignment of components during assembly. Use hoisting equipment to slowly align the cap with the pile foundation so that the flange and the connection hole are aligned.

[0045] S3, connection tightening and grouting reinforcement stage: including bolt connection and secondary grouting curing. First, the high-strength bolts 6 are passed through the bolt holes 4 and the connection holes 5 in sequence, and tightened one by one according to the design requirements using a torque wrench to ensure that each high-strength bolt 6 reaches the standard torque. After tightening, the verticality and horizontality of the prefabricated cap 1 and the pile foundation 2 can be adjusted by laser measuring instruments or other positioning tools to ensure the accuracy of assembly.

[0046] High-performance grouting material 8 is injected into the groove 7 through the grouting port to fill the gap between the connector 3 and the pile foundation 2, and then a vibrating tool is used to ensure that the grouting is dense and void-free. When the high-performance grouting material 8 solidifies, an overall reinforced cap-pile foundation connection system is formed.

[0047] S4, Quality Acceptance Stage: Check the quality of the overall connection structure, check the overall verticality of the pedestal, use laser measurement tools to ensure that the error is within the allowable range, and test the torque value of the bolts and the density of the grouting to complete the quality acceptance
