Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of municipal engineering construction safety protection, in particular to a municipal pipeline foundation pit collapse protection device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Municipal road construction plays a vital role in urban economic development, and municipal pipeline engineering is an indispensable foundation construction (such as rainwater, sewage, etc. pipeline) in municipal road engineering construction. Influenced by local soil and surrounding environment, many situations such as collapse often occur during construction, endangering the safety of on-site construction personnel. The present traditional anti-collapse measures are as follows: 1. Strictly excavate the pipe trench according to technical requirements 1) Before excavation, technical personnel should brief the construction personnel and inspect and accept the pipe trench; 2) On-site construction workers should strictly excavate according to technical requirements, and should not arbitrarily change the slope ratio; 3) When the pipe trench cannot be normally excavated due to surrounding environment restrictions, a special construction plan should be developed, and construction should be carried out after approval to ensure safety; 4) Local coordination should be strengthened, and the width of the operation zone should not be arbitrarily reduced due to land acquisition coordination, which should not affect the normal slope of the pipe trench; 5) The slope of the pipe trench should be determined according to the soil type, mechanical properties and pipe trench excavation depth; 6) For pipe trenches with a depth of more than 5 meters, appropriate slope slowing, support or step excavation measures can be taken according to the actual situation.

[0003] 2. Measures to reduce excessive dynamic and static load 1) During excavation, the earthwork should be piled on the opposite side of the trench away from the pipe trench, and the distance between the earthwork and the pipe trench should be at least 0.5 meters; 2) When the amount of earthwork is large, it must be piled away from the trench or transported outside for disposal; 3) After the rain, the pipe trench should be checked for erosion and immersion, and measures such as increasing the slope ratio and eliminating static load should be taken to prevent collapse; 4) When the equipment is running, it should be kept at least 1 meter away from the trench, and after the construction equipment is stopped, the operator should enter the construction site only after observing that there is no risk of collapse.

[0004] 3. Risk reduction measures for water immersion 1) After the pipe trench is immersed in rainwater and groundwater for a long time, risk analysis should be carried out again before work is prepared after the accumulated water is removed; 2) The pipe trench should be excavated before the pipeline is laid, and the time the pipe trench is left should be shortened as much as possible; 3) When excavating in spring, the excavated pipe trench should be protected from freezing and thawing, and the larger frozen soil blocks on the trench should be removed and the slope should be appropriately increased; 4) When excavating in winter, the hard surface layer of frozen soil should be removed to avoid blind expansion of the operation pit and formation of a funnel-shaped space.

[0005] 4. Other risk reduction measures 1) when the whole trench cannot be excavated normally due to the surrounding environment, the trench wall around the working point must meet the slope ratio requirement; 2) if necessary, protective support or protective cage and other measures are taken to make personnel work in a safe and closed environment; 3) when working in the trench, a monitor must be left on the trench to observe the trench and the surrounding safety at any time, and when a problem is found, the working personnel in the trench are notified to avoid, escape and first aid; 4) enough escape ladders are provided for working in the trench, emergency passages are set, and enough emergency equipment and materials are provided on site; 5) an emergency rescue plan for collapse is formulated, emergency measures are formulated, and regular training and exercises are carried out.

[0006] The traditional anti-collapse measures and their complexity, although improving the safety factor of pipeline construction work to some extent, cannot fundamentally solve the safety problem of pipeline construction work, and consume a lot of manpower and material resources for supervision and maintenance, which causes great headache to construction personnel.

[0007] There is an urgent need for a protective device with simple structure, easy to install and transport, and capable of automatically forming a protection space when collapsing, to improve construction safety and work efficiency. SUMMARY

[0008] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a municipal pipeline foundation pit collapse protection device to solve the problems of complicated operation and limited protection effect of the existing anti-collapse measures.

When an accidental collapse occurs, the folding of the cross beam promotes the two protection plates to quickly fold inward and form a stable triangular protection space. This triangular structure has excellent mechanical stability and can provide a reliable life safety area for the operating personnel under the impact of collapse, and its self-adaptive deformation mechanism avoids the secondary injury risk caused by the traditional rigid support. The design realizes the organic unification of the protection function and the construction efficiency, that is, the protection plates maintain an open state during normal operation to ensure sufficient operating space and smooth construction process; when collapse occurs, it is instantly converted into a protection mode, which significantly improves the safety guarantee level and operation continuity of the municipal pipeline foundation pit construction.
