Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tunnel construction, and in particular to a hierarchical relay drainage device. Background Art
[0002] During the design process of transportation lines, in order to ensure the construction progress, excavation is generally carried out at both ends, and one end will face the problem of reverse slope drainage. For the tunnels constructed in mountain ranges, even with a herringbone slope design, during the construction of the tunnels, in order to speed up the construction progress and shorten the construction period, sometimes the method of adding construction inclined shafts is often used to increase the construction face. When the construction inclined shaft is a forward slope, natural drainage can be used to achieve the drainage purpose for the drainage in the constructed tunnel. However, in actual projects, due to topographical conditions, in the case of minimizing project costs, the excavation distance of the inclined shaft should be shortened as much as possible, and inevitably, inclined shafts in the form of reverse slopes will appear, and reverse slope drainage also needs to be faced. In tunnel construction, submersible pumps are usually used for pumping and drainage work. Submersible pumps have the advantages of compact structure and convenient installation. When submersible pumps are used, they need to be immersed in water. Therefore, a sump for placing the pump usually needs to be set at the inclined shaft slope for storing water.
[0003] Existing hierarchical drainage all requires setting corresponding sumps for storing water, and after storing water, a water pump is connected for pumping and drainage. The following problems exist for the construction auxiliary inclined shaft: (1) The construction passage of the inclined shaft is small, and constructing a separate sump requires occupying space, which is not conducive to on-site construction; (2) When the water volume increases later, under the condition of the existing drainage system, supplementing the water storage tank requires excavation and blasting operations. For rock geology, the construction difficulty is great.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a hierarchical relay drainage device that is easy to adjust, eliminate the setting of intermediate water storage devices, reduce blasting and excavation operations, and reduce the construction operation difficulty has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0035] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0036] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a graded relay pumping and drainage device includes a water collecting tank 1 at the bottom of an inclined shaft, the water collecting tank 1 is arranged at the tunnel face that needs to be drained, and includes multiple stages of pumping components and multiple pipes connected in series. A group of the pumping components at the bottom and the water collecting tank 1, two adjacent stages of the pumping components, and the last group of the pumping components and the outside of the inclined shaft are connected through the pipes to form a graded relay pumping and drainage system. The graded relay pumping and drainage system is started to complete the reverse drainage operation inside the tunnel along the inclined shaft. When the multiple stages of pumping components are selected in series, the flow rate at the bottom is the largest and the flow rate at the tail is the smallest.
[0037] Specifically, the pumps in multiple pumping components are connected in series to absorb water through a larger flow pump, and a smaller flow pump is connected in series to increase the head, thereby achieving large-flow drainage while increasing the head without the need for additional water tanks to store water. This achieves the purpose of drainage while saving construction costs and construction space.
[0038] The pumping assembly includes a group of first-level pumping assemblies 100 and at least one group of second-level pumping assemblies 200. The first-level pumping assembly 100 is arranged on one side of the water collecting pool 1 and is connected through an input pipe 2; the second-level pumping assembly 200 is arranged in the middle of the inclined well, and the second-level pumping assembly 200 and the first-level pumping assembly 100 and any two adjacent second-level pumping assemblies 200 are connected through a switching pipe 3. The output end of the second-level pumping assembly 200 at the end is connected to the sedimentation tank 5 outside the inclined well through an output pipe 4.
[0039] The pumping assembly includes a pump for pumping and draining water and a control cabinet for control, wherein the pump and the control cabinet are electrically connected and arranged one by one. Specifically, when in use, a control panel is arranged on the front side of the separate control cabinet, and adjustment buttons and a liquid crystal display are arranged on the control panel, so that the operator can set and adjust parameters in a targeted manner according to the actual drainage volume requirements.
[0040] The primary pumping assembly 100 includes a first pumping pump 101 and a first control cabinet 102 which are electrically connected, and the water inlet of the first pumping pump 101 is connected to the water collection tank 1 through the input pipe 2;
[0041] The secondary pumping assembly 200 includes a second water pump 201 and a second control cabinet 202 which are electrically connected. The water inlet of the second water pump 201 is communicated with the water outlet of the first water pump 101 through the adapter pipe 3, and the water outlet of the second water pump 201 is communicated with the sedimentation tank 5 through the output pipe 4.
[0042] Elbows 6 for changing directions are installed on the water outlets of the first water pump 101 and the second water pump 201. The elbows 6 are communicated with the adapter pipe 3 and the water inlet ends of the output pipes 4.
[0043] As Figures 2-4 shown, one of the first water pumps 101 and at least one of the second water pumps 201 are installed in the inclined shaft through adjustable bases; the adjustable bases include a fixed base 11 and a movable base 14. The movable base 14 is movably connected to the fixed base 11. The bottom plates of the first water pump 101 and the second water pump 201 are fixedly connected to the movable base 14. The movable base 14 moves along the guide rail 13 on the top of the fixed base 11, thereby adjusting the distance between adjacent two water pumps.
[0044] Specifically, a plurality of adjustment grooves 1102 are formed on the bottom surface of the fixed base 11. An adjustment threaded hole 1101 is coaxially arranged above the adjustment groove 1102. A fixed leg 12 for adjusting the height is arranged below the adjustment groove 1102. A connecting internal thread 1204 is formed on the top surface of the fixed leg 12. An adjustment bolt passes through the adjustment threaded hole 1101 from top to bottom and is connected to the connecting internal thread 1204. Rotating the adjustment bolt drives the fixed leg 12 to move downward and is initially embedded and connected into the adjustment groove 1102. During adjustment, rotate the adjustment bolt at the top. After the bottom end of the adjustment bolt completely reaches the bottom of the connecting internal thread 1204, continue to rotate to drive the fixed leg 12 to rotate and move downward at the same time, so that it is buried deeper into the ground. By adjusting the burial depth, the top of the fixed base 11 is kept at a certain level.
[0045] The fixed leg 12 includes a fixed leg body 1201 and a sharp end 1202 at the bottom connected together. An outer side wall at the bottom of the fixed leg body 1201 is provided with a plurality of annular anti - detachment grooves 1203. The cross - section of the anti - detachment groove 1203 is acute - angled, the bottom side is a horizontal plane or a plane inclined towards the axis, and the edge height of the plane inclined towards the axis is greater than the inner ring height. The design of the anti - detachment groove 1203 can reduce the displacement caused by vibration to a certain extent and increase the stability of use. The setting of the sharp end 1202 facilitates the downward embedded connection of the fixed leg with the inclined - shaft ground and extends into the fixed ground. In addition, a pre - cast cement fixed ground can be set, and connecting nuts are embedded in the ground. At this time, the fixed leg body 1201 needs to be set as a hollow structure, fastened to the embedded connecting nut through screws, and the height adjustment is realized through the tightening fit position.
[0046] A plurality of guide rails 13 are provided and symmetrically distributed. The guide rails 13 match the bottom guide edges of the moving base 14. The moving base 14 is made of an I - beam to form a frame structure, and a fine - tuning drive assembly is arranged on one side of the frame structure.
[0047] The fine - tuning drive assembly includes an adjustment seat 15 and a handle 16 for driving. The adjustment seat 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the top surface of the fixed base 11. The handle 16 is threadedly connected in the adjustment seat 15. One side of the handle 16 close to the moving base 14 is rotatably connected to the moving base 14 through an adapter block 17. The adapter block 17 is fastened and connected to the moving base 14 through bolts. Specifically, the working section of the handle 16 is set in a stepped shape, and the round table at the end is embedded into the positioning groove of the moving base 14 with a clearance fit. The hole of the adapter block 17 is smaller than the diameter of the round table, so as to position it on the moving base 14 and rotate freely during rotation. When in use, the middle part of the handle 16 is a threaded rod. The threaded connection of the threaded rod with the adjustment seat 15 converts the rotary operation into a linear motion, thereby driving the moving base 14 and the water pump above to move synchronously, and finally realizing the position adjustment, which is convenient for connecting with the processed pipeline together.
[0048] As Figures 5-6As shown, the first water pump 101, the second water pump 201, the elbow 6, the transfer pipeline 3, the input pipeline 2 and the output pipeline 4 are aligned with each other through the connecting flange 8 and then fastened by the bolt assembly; a gasket 7 is arranged between two butt-jointed connecting flanges 8, and the gasket 7 is provided with three-equal-part bolt through-holes 701 or four-equal-part bolt through-holes 702 or multi-equal-part bolt through-holes, or the three-equal-part bolt through-holes 701 and the four-equal-part bolt through-holes 702 are arranged on a gasket 7 and share one of the through-holes. The diversity of the hole-opening structure is applicable to the fastening structures with different numbers of bolt assemblies, and the applicable scenarios are more. When the gasket is used, the quantity can be increased or decreased according to needs to ensure the sealing effect at the joint and avoid water leakage during the drainage process.
[0049] The using process of the present invention is as follows:
[0050] For the hierarchical relay pumping and drainage device of the present invention, water pumps are connected in series for relay. The large-flow water pump is used to absorb water, and a smaller-flow water pump is connected in series to increase the lift. While achieving large-flow drainage, the lift is increased, and there is no need to additionally process a water sump for water storage. While achieving the drainage purpose, the construction cost and construction space are saved. Among them, the flow rate of the water pump for absorbing water at the bottom should be greater than that of the water pump for increasing the lift, and the flow rate of the water pump is adjusted through the control cabinet to keep the flow rates of the water pumps as consistent as possible to ensure the normal and efficient use of each water pump. That is, multiple pumps connected in series for pressurization can achieve drainage operations with higher lift and longer distance.
[0051] Specifically, in a large-slope inclined shaft reverse slope drainage verification project of a certain project, in a set of embodiments, the first water pump 101 adopts a set of 400-80 (132kw) centrifugal pumps, and then the second water pump 201 connected adopts 200-80 (90kw) centrifugal pumps; in another embodiment, the first water pump 101 adopts a set of 600-30 (75kw) permanent magnet pumps, and then the second water pump 201 connected adopts 500-160 (355kw) single-stage double-suction pumps. The reverse slope drainage operation of the inclined shaft is realized, and while achieving large-flow drainage, the lift can reach more than 160m. It can be seen that multiple pumps connected in series for relay can achieve drainage operations with higher lift and longer distance, and can be widely applied to tunnel excavation construction operations.
