[0035] Among the prior arts that have been searched:

[0036] Chinese patent application number 202411920996.8 discloses a prestressed, high-pressure gas storage container with a damped, segmented lining. From the inside out, it consists of a steel lining, lining blocks, a buffer layer, and a concrete layer. The steel lining and buffer layer are capsule-shaped, with the lining blocks enclosing a circular column. Individual lining blocks are reinforced concrete, with gaps between adjacent lining blocks. Self-resetting dampers are installed on the circumferential joint surfaces of adjacent lining blocks. Prestressed tendons are embedded within the concrete layer. The first tendon is located in the middle of the concrete layer, with several of the first tendons spaced equidistantly around the circumference. A second tendon is radially located at the end of the concrete layer. A third tendon is axially arranged throughout the capsule structure, with anchor ribs at each end. This structure significantly reduces the thickness of the steel lining while also being able to withstand higher internal pressures, resulting in a more balanced gas storage container.

[0037] Another patent, CN202410375595.2, discloses a composite-lined gas storage cavern structure, comprising a gas storage cavern body, and a sealing layer lining and a main lining arranged in sequence from the inside to the outside of the gas storage cavern body. The main lining is formed by at least two arc-shaped segments connected end to end, and a joint is provided between adjacent segments. The gas storage cavern structure also includes a secondary lining arranged between the main lining and the sealing layer lining to constrain the segments. The secondary lining adopts an integral structure. The sealing layer lining is fitted on the inner surface of the secondary lining. The sealing layer lining can be made of a flexible sealing material or a steel plate.

[0038] Of the two patents mentioned above, the Chinese patent with application number 202411920996.8 discloses a solution for controlling the cracking of the main lining by setting multiple layers of prestressed tendons in the lining and damping blocks inside. This patent is not easy to construct in actual projects; the Chinese patent with application number CN202410375595.2 discloses a main and secondary lining structure to increase the service life of the sealing layer, but its feasibility is not ideal.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only 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 making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0041] An embodiment of the present invention provides a prestressed lining structure for an underground gas storage, comprising:

[0042] The lining layer is made of concrete and has prestressed steel bars 10 built in;

[0043] a sealing layer, disposed on the inner side of the lining layer and defining an air storage chamber;

[0044] The slip layer is arranged between the lining layer and the sealing layer.

[0051] In this embodiment, the tensioning end of the prestressed steel bar 10 extends into the tensioning notch.

[0052] An embodiment of the present invention further provides a construction method for a prestressed lining structure of an underground gas storage, comprising the following steps:

[0053] S1: Arrange the formwork for the first lining layer 1 on the inner surface of the chamber, set a notch formwork box at the position corresponding to the tensioning notch below the formwork to form the tensioning notch, arrange steel bars in the formwork, fix the prestressed steel bars 10 to the steel bars, place the tensioning ends of the prestressed steel bars 10 into the tensioning notch, and pour concrete into the formwork to form the first lining layer 1;

[0054] S2: Laminating the first sliding layer 2 and the first sealing layer 3 and arranging them on the first lining layer 1 accordingly;

[0055] S3: tensioning the prestressed steel bars 10 in the tensioning grooves, anchoring them with anchors 9 after tensioning, and pouring concrete into the tensioning grooves to form a second lining layer 4 connected to the first lining layer 1. The first lining layer 1 and the second lining layer 4 constitute a lining layer;

[0056] S4: The second slip layer 5 and the second sealing layer 6 are laminated and arranged correspondingly on the second lining layer 4. The first slip layer 2 and the second slip layer 5 are spliced. The first sealing layer 3 and the second sealing layer 6 are welded to form a first weld 11. The first slip layer 2 and the second slip layer 5 constitute a slip layer, and the first sealing layer 3 and the second sealing layer 6 constitute a sealing layer.

[0057] In this embodiment, a grouting pipe 8 is arranged on the top of the first lining layer 1 and fixed to the steel bar; after the first sealing layer 3 and the second sealing layer 6 are welded, a gap 7 is formed between the lining layer and the sliding layer, and the grouting pipe 8 is connected to the gap 7, and grouting is injected into the gap 7 through the grouting pipe 8.
