Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of PCCP pipeline excavation and repair, and specifically relates to a PCCP pipeline excavation and repair support device and a method for using the same. Background Art

[0002] With the large-scale rise of water conservancy projects in my country, PCCP has been widely used in my country due to its superior characteristics. However, in the long-term operation of PCCP, due to environmental corrosion, hydrogen embrittlement, pipe manufacturing errors, pipeline installation and construction, material defects and other factors, PCCP prestressed steel wires will break. If they cannot be discovered and repaired in time, it is very likely to cause a pipe burst accident during the operation of PCCP, causing huge economic losses and social impacts.

[0003] Common repair and reinforcement methods include excavation repair and trenchless repair. Excavation repair mainly includes post-tensioning method, external concrete method, etc. The post-tensioning method refers to re-tensioning the prestress outside the broken wire pipe, and then spraying a protective layer outside the steel wire. Although this method can be used to reinforce the pipeline structure without stopping water, the construction process is complicated. For example, to reinforce a single pipe, it is necessary to consider the stress conditions of the pipes on both sides and the treatment of the tensioning joints; the external concrete method refers to wrapping a new layer of reinforced concrete outside the damaged pipe, but it produces uneven structure and stiffness along the axial direction of the pipe. It is only suitable for reinforcing earthquake-damaged pipes and small-diameter pipes damaged by uneven settlement. Trenchless repair methods mainly include internal steel lining method and internal CFRP lining reinforcement method. The steel plate lining method is to insert a steel tube as a lining into the damaged pipe, then restore the steel tube to a similar circular shape as the damaged pipe and weld it, and finally pour mortar between the lining and the damaged pipe. The pipes reinforced by this method have good durability, but water supply needs to be interrupted during the repair process. It is suitable for reinforcing longer pipe sections, and it is not economical to reinforce a single pipe. The CFRP lining reinforcement method is to paste fiber fabric inside the pipe. The number of layers and direction of paste depend on the damage of the pipe. Although this repair and reinforcement method does not require excavation and does not affect the traffic around the pipe, it requires water suspension during the repair period, large-area reinforcement takes a long time, and sufficient time is required after the CFRP is pasted to ensure the bonding strength. Overall, since PCCP is mostly used for long-distance water supply mains, water suspension maintenance will seriously affect the daily water use of urban residents. Therefore, PCCP repair currently adopts the excavation without water suspension repair method.

[0004] After searching, the patent number of CN 110332412 B is a broken wire PCCP excavation repair support device and a construction method thereof, in which a curved steel sheet bracket and two jacks are combined to support the pipeline. The curved steel sheet bracket causes an arc shape, which makes it inconvenient to install it to the bottom of the pipeline, and the excavation work before installation is cumbersome, affecting the construction progress. In addition, the curvature of the curved steel sheet bracket is fixed, and it cannot effectively support pipelines of different sizes, so it needs to be improved. Summary of the invention
