Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of hydroelectric power generation facilities, and particularly to a sand flushing device for hydroelectric power generation. Background Art

[0002] Sand and gravel are likely to accumulate near the water intake of the reservoir. The siltation of sand and gravel will reduce the reservoir capacity and lower the power generation head. Sand and gravel entering the water turbine may wear the blades and shorten the service life of the equipment. The siltation of sand and gravel will also block the water diversion system and increase the maintenance cost. Therefore, in large hydropower stations, the sand flushing device, as an important water conservancy equipment, is mainly used to remove the sediment deposited in the reservoir or the water diversion channel.

[0003] A Chinese patent document with the authorization announcement number of CN114197411B, a water conservancy and hydropower sand flushing system, includes a dam main body and a sand retaining dam provided at the upstream inlet section of the dam main body.

Detailed implementation manners

[0028] In the first embodiment, as Figures 1 - 3 shown, the present invention provides a sand flushing device for hydroelectric power generation, including a sand interception component 1, an impact platform 2, a reflux platform 3, a traction member 8 and a sand scraping component 7. The sand interception component 1 is arranged on the water intake of the dam along the water flow direction, and intercepts the sand and gravel in the water flow by forming a undulating trend; the impact platform 2 is located on one side of the sand interception component 1, and a sand flushing gate 4 for horizontal water flushing is arranged on the top; the reflux platform 3 is located on the other side of the sand interception component 1, a reflux culvert 302 communicated with the sand interception component 1 is arranged on the side wall, and a sand collection box 6 communicating the reflux culvert 302 and the sand discharge pipe 5 is arranged at the bottom; an opening and closing component 9 for blocking the reflux culvert 302 is also arranged on the reflux platform 3; one end of the traction member 8 is connected to the gate 401 of the sand flushing gate 4, and the other end is connected to the opening and closing component 9; when the gate 401 rises, the traction member 8 extends, and the opening and closing component 9 opens the reflux culvert 302; when the gate 401 descends, the traction member 8 shortens, and the opening and closing component 9 closes the reflux culvert 302; the sand scraping component 7 is connected in series on the traction member 8, and moves back and forth on the sand interception component 1 to scrape sand along with the extension and shortening of the traction member 8 and the scouring of the water flow.

[0029] As shown Figures 4 - 5 in the figure, an installation cavity 201 is arranged inside the impact table 2; a first deflection roller 202 is arranged in the installation cavity 201; a second deflection roller 402 is arranged on the frame of the sand flushing gate 4; one end of the traction member 8 is connected to the top of the gate 401, and the other end sequentially bypasses the second deflection roller 402 and the first deflection roller 202, then passes through the sand blocking assembly 1, extends into the return culvert 302 and is connected to the opening and closing assembly 9.

[0030] It should be further noted that the traction member 8 is arranged as a steel rope.

[0031] When the gate 401 rises, the end of the steel rope rises, extends along the second deflection roller 402 and the first deflection roller 202. At this time, the opening and closing assembly 9 is loosened by the steel rope, and the blockage of the return culvert 302 can be released. The flushed sand and gravel can enter the sand collecting box 6 through the return culvert 302. When the gate 401 descends, the end of the steel rope descends, shortens along the second deflection roller 402 and the first deflection roller 202. At this time, the opening and closing assembly 9 is pulled by the steel rope, and the return culvert 302 can be blocked.

[0032] As shown Figure 4 and Figure 6 in the figure, a sand collecting cavity 301 communicating the return culvert 302 and the sand collecting box 6 is arranged inside the return table 3; the opening and closing assembly 9 includes a telescopic rod 902 located in the sand collecting cavity 301; the end of the telescopic rod 902 extends into the return culvert 302 and is connected to the blocking seat 901. A return spring 903 is sleeved outside the telescopic rod 902; a sealing table 904 matching the return culvert 302 is arranged at the front end of the blocking seat 901. The end of the traction member 8 is connected to the sealing table 904.

[0033] It should be further noted that one end of the return spring 903 is connected to the blocking seat 901, and the other end is connected to the cavity wall of the sand collecting cavity 301.

[0034] When the sealing table 904 is loosened by the steel rope, the water flow impact causes the sealing table 904 to be stressed inward, and the blockage of the return culvert 302 is released. When the sealing table 904 is pulled by the steel rope, the return spring 903 pushes the sealing table 904 to be stressed outward, and the return culvert 302 is blocked again.

[0035] It should be further noted that a magnetic adsorption layer is arranged on the blocking seat 901; an electromagnet 905 acting on the blocking seat 901 is arranged in the sand collecting cavity 301.

[0036] It should be further noted that the bottom of the sand collecting cavity 301 is open to communicate with the sand collecting box 6; the opening and closing assembly 9 is mounted above the opening.

[0037] When the water flow flushes and unseats the blocking seat 901 and moves backward, the electromagnet 905 is energized to generate magnetism, fixing the blocking seat 901, reserving enough space for the sand and gravel to enter, and also storing energy for the return spring 903. When the sand flushing is completed and the magnetic attraction ends, the return spring 903 quickly rebounds and resets.

[0038] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, the sand blocking assembly 1 includes a sand blocking seat 101 located between the impact table 2 and the return table 3; sand blocking grooves 102 and sand blocking platforms 103 are alternately arranged on the sand blocking seat 101; the sand blocking grooves 102 and the sand blocking platforms 103 form a sand blocking structure with undulations along an S-shaped trajectory with one concave and one convex; the sand blocking structure communicates with the return culvert 302; the traction member 8 passes through the sand blocking grooves 102; the sand scraping assembly 7 is pulled by the traction member 8 and moves back and forth in the sand blocking grooves 102 to scrape sand.

[0039] Since the sand blocking grooves 102 and the sand blocking platforms 103 form a sand blocking structure with undulations along an S-shaped trajectory with one concave and one convex, it realizes the interception of the sand and gravel carried by the water flow at the water intake of the dam. And after the sand and gravel accumulate to a certain amount, by opening the sand flushing gate 4, a high-speed water flow is formed by using the height difference of the impact table 2 and the water flow pressure, flushing the sediment deposited on the sand blocking seat 101 and discharging it into the return culvert 302, and finally discharging it through the sand outlet pipe 5.

[0040] Embodiment 2, as Figure 7 shown, the sand blocking groove 102 is set as a semi-cylindrical groove, one side of the groove opening corresponds to and communicates with the return culvert 302 one by one, and the other side of the groove opening abuts against the impact table 2; the sand blocking platform 103 is set as a solid pillow shape. The sand scraping cylinder 702 is located in the sand blocking groove 102. The water flow moves along an S-shaped trajectory along the sand blocking groove 102 and the sand blocking platform 103, the sand and gravel are intercepted by the sand blocking platform 103, slide into the sand blocking groove 102, and are finally washed into the return culvert 302.

[0041] As Figure 8 shown, the sand scraping assembly 7 includes two groups of positioning heads 701 arranged in pairs on the traction member 8; the sliding sleeve 706 is slidably sleeved on the traction member 8 and is located between the two groups of positioning heads 701. An elastic telescopic sleeve 707 that wraps the traction member 8 is arranged between the sliding sleeve 706 and the positioning heads 701 on both sides, and a rotatable sand scraping cylinder 702 is arranged on the outer periphery of the sliding sleeve 706.

[0042] It should be further noted that the sand scraping cylinder 702 is provided with a hollow 705 for the water flow to pass through, a pushing paddle 704 is arranged on one side of the hollow 705, and a sand scraping frame 703 is arranged on the side wall of the sand scraping cylinder 702.

[0043] When the gate 401 rises, the end of the steel rope rises and extends along the deflection roller II 402 and the deflection roller I 202. At this time, the sand scraping assembly 7 is washed by the water flow and moves towards the return culvert 302. During the movement, the sand scraping cylinder 702 drives the elastic telescopic sleeves 707 on both sides to bounce back and forth, and at the same time, the water flow impacts and rotates. Through the hollow 705, the pushing paddle 704 is forced, which can drive the sand scraping cylinder 702 to rotate, and the sand scraping frame 703 rotates to scrape the sand and gravel attached to the sand retaining structure, accelerating its entry into the return culvert 302.

[0044] Embodiment 3, as Figure 9 shown, the sand retaining groove 102 is set as a semi-cylindrical groove, one side of the groove mouth is in one-to-one correspondence and communication with the return culvert 302, and the other side of the groove mouth abuts against the impact platform 2; the sand retaining platform 103 is set as a hollow pillow-shaped structure, and a sand inlet 104 communicating with the sand retaining groove 102 is arranged at the bottom of the water-facing side, and a sand storage cavity 105 is arranged inside; the sand storage cavity 105 gradually becomes smaller from top to bottom and communicates with the sand inlet 104 at the bottom; the sand scraping cylinder 702 is located in the sand retaining groove 102.

[0045] The water flow moves along the sand retaining groove 102 and the sand retaining platform 103 in an S-shaped trajectory. The sand and gravel are intercepted by the sand retaining platform 103, slide into the sand retaining groove 102 and the sand storage cavity 105, and are finally washed into the return culvert 302. The setting of the sand storage cavity 105 not only increases the capacity for accommodating sand and gravel, but also reduces the impact of sand and gravel on hydropower generation and reduces the frequency of sand flushing.

[0046] As Figure 10 shown, the sand scraping assembly 7 includes two groups of positioning heads 701 arranged in pairs on the traction member 8; the sliding sleeve 706 is slidably sleeved on the traction member 8 and is located between the two groups of positioning heads 701. Elastic telescopic sleeves 707 wrapping the traction member 8 are arranged between the sliding sleeve 706 and the positioning heads 701 on both sides, and a rotatable sand scraping cylinder 702 is arranged on the outer periphery of the sliding sleeve 706.

[0047] It should be further noted that the sand scraping cylinder 702 is provided with a hollow 705 for water flow to pass through. A pushing paddle 704 is arranged on one side of the hollow 705, and a sand scraping frame 703 is arranged on the side wall of the sand scraping cylinder 702.

[0048] It should be further noted that the sand scraping assembly 7 further includes a sand discharging ball 10; the sand discharging ball 10 is movably arranged in the sand storage cavity 105 and is larger than the sand inlet 104. The sand discharging ball 10 is connected to the sliding sleeve 706 through a connecting chain 11.

[0049] In daily operation, the sand discharging ball 10 is lifted by the water flow and floats on the top of the sand storage cavity 105. When the sliding sleeve 706 slides, it drives the sand discharging ball 10 to move synchronously, and by pulling the sand discharging ball 10 to move in the sand storage cavity 105, it assists in discharging the sand and gravel from the sand storage cavity 105.

[0050] The working principle of the sand flushing device for hydropower generation in the present invention is as follows: The gate 401 is normally closed, and the plugging seat 901 blocks the return culvert 302 under the action of the return spring 903. During the process that the water flow at the water intake of the dam drives the sand and gravel to move along the sand retaining structure with a high and low undulating S-shaped trajectory, the sand and gravel are intercepted by the sand retaining platform 103 and slide into the sand retaining groove 102 and the sand storage cavity 105. When the sand and gravel accumulate to a certain amount, the gate 401 is lifted. The height difference of the impact platform 2 and the water flow pressure form a high-speed water flow. The end of the steel rope rises, and the tail extends along the second deflecting roller 402 and the first deflecting roller 202. On the one hand, the sealing platform 904 is released by the steel rope. The water flow impact causes the sealing platform 904 to be stressed inward, releasing the plugging of the return culvert 302. The electromagnet 905 is energized to generate magnetism, fixing the plugging seat 901 to reserve enough space for the sand and gravel to enter. The sand and gravel are flushed into the return culvert 302. On the other hand, the sand scraping assembly 7 is washed by the water flow and moves towards the return culvert 302. During the movement, the sand scraping cylinder 702 drives the back-and-forth bouncing through the elastic telescopic sleeves 707 on both sides. At the same time, the water flow impacts and rotates. Passing through the hollow 705, the paddle 704 is forced, which can drive the sand scraping cylinder 702 to rotate, and the sand scraping frame 703 rotates to scrape the sand and gravel attached to the sand retaining structure. At the same time, when the sliding sleeve 706 slides, it drives the sand discharging ball 10 to move synchronously, and the sand discharging ball 10 is pulled to move in the sand storage cavity 105 to assist the sand and gravel to enter the return culvert 302 from the sand storage cavity 105 and the sand retaining groove 102. Finally, the sand and gravel are discharged from the sand discharging pipe 5. The gate 401 descends and closes, and the plugging seat 901 resets to block the return culvert 302, and the hydropower generation continues.

[0051] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art.
