Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mine irrigation and protection technology, specifically a protective irrigation device for mine ecological restoration projects. Background Technology

[0002] Mine ecological restoration is a key measure to improve the mining area environment and restore vegetation, and the stable operation of the irrigation system is the core foundation for ensuring the survival and growth of vegetation. In the complex environment of mining areas, irrigation pipes used for vegetation restoration are exposed to the elements for a long time and face severe challenges. These pipes not only need to withstand the risks of physical damage such as surface subsidence and rockfall impacts, but also have to cope with material corrosion caused by the humid environment, as well as the gnawing and damage from rodents, insects and other organisms. These factors together threaten the integrity and service life of the irrigation system. To ensure the normal operation of irrigation pipelines, existing technologies typically employ the following protective measures; Existing irrigation pipeline protection primarily relies on physical wrapping, structural reinforcement, and external support. For complex mining conditions, components such as sleeves, protective covers, insulation layers, and pressure-resistant pads are commonly used to externally encase the pipeline, employing rigid or semi-rigid structures to resist damage caused by soil compression, mechanical impacts, and slope slippage. Buried pipelines often utilize thickened pipe walls, steel-plastic composite pipes, or concrete piers to achieve structural stability; suspended pipelines are fixed using supports, clamps, and lifting components, relying on simple locking mechanisms for positioning. Existing pipeline protection methods for corrosion prevention, moisture protection, and insect prevention mainly employ coating anti-corrosion, wrapping anti-corrosion tape, cathodic protection, or localized application of insect repellents. These methods slow down pipeline aging and damage by isolating the pipeline from soil, moisture, and harmful media. However, these methods are often independently installed, resulting in fragmented protective functions that cannot be integrated with fixed or buffer structures. However, the environmental threats in mining areas are complex, and the aforementioned single-function protective measures are inadequate in practical applications. Specifically, rigid sleeves that can resist physical impacts often lack moisture-proof and biocontrol functions, leaving pipe joints or sleeve gaps vulnerable to moisture erosion or insect infestation. Flexible wrapping materials, while possessing corrosion and moisture-proof properties, suffer from insufficient structural strength, failing to provide effective physical support and impact protection for the pipelines. This lack of protective function means that existing technologies cannot provide a comprehensive solution, leaving irrigation pipelines at extremely high risk of damage under multiple environmental pressures, directly impacting the progress and effectiveness of mine ecological restoration projects. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the problem that existing protective irrigation devices in mine ecological restoration projects have a single protective function and cannot effectively resist multiple complex threats such as physical impact, moisture erosion and biological damage at the same time.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a protective irrigation device for mine ecological restoration projects, comprising: Multiple splicing components are provided. The two sides of each splicing component are symmetrically arranged with a central point. One side of each splicing component is provided with a hollowed-out cone and a medicine bag. When multiple splicing components are combined, they form a ring that can wrap around the outer wall of the irrigation pipe. When unfolded, they are on the same horizontal plane. On the side where two splicing components are in contact, the hollowed-out cone is inserted into the inside of the medicine bag and punctures the medicine bag to create a space for communication between the hollowed-out cone and the medicine bag. The bottom of each splicing component is installed on one side of the wrapping cloth through an installation component. The fixing folding rings are all connected to the other side of the wrapping fabric via connecting rings at their center. There are three types of fixing folding rings: A, B, and C. Wherein, A includes a protruding ring fixedly connected to one end of the fixed folding ring, and a protruding groove fixedly connected to the other end; Wherein, B includes a protruding ring fixedly connected to one end of the fixed folding ring; Wherein, C includes a groove fixedly connected to one end of the fixed folding ring; The convex ring and the convex groove are rotatably connected, and the convex ring cannot rotate to the outer arc side of the fixed folding ring. Both B and C types of fixed folding rings have a connecting plate fixedly connected to their other end. The two connecting plates are connected by bolts and a sealing gasket is provided. One side of one of the connecting plates is fixedly connected to a plug rod, and the other side of the connecting plate has a plug groove. The bottom of the connecting plates is fixedly connected to the two sides of the irrigation pipe respectively.

[0005] Preferably, a desiccant is placed inside the hollowed-out cone, and an insect repellent is placed inside the medicine sac.

[0006] Preferably, the outer wall of the hollowed-out cone has a hollowed-out groove, and an isolation net is fixedly connected to the hollowed-out groove.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the splicing component has a bladder slot, and a balloon is placed inside the bladder slot; multiple balloons are connected by connecting strips.

[0008] Preferably, the side of the splice that contacts the irrigation pipe is provided with a protective layer, and the splice, except for the bottom side, is made of silicone.

[0009] Preferably, the protective layer includes a heat-insulating pad, a sponge pad, and a padding layer for protecting and safeguarding the pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the mounting assembly includes a leaf spring fixed on one side of the wrapping fabric, and both ends of the leaf spring are fixedly connected to connecting strips. The bottom side of the splice has a mounting groove to allow the insertion of the connecting strips.

[0011] Preferably, the leaf spring is located at one half of the wrapping fabric, so that after the splicing pieces are combined, the wrapping fabric forms a semi-wrapped state, while the other half can wrap another set of splicing pieces.

[0012] A protective method for a protective irrigation device in a mine ecological restoration project includes the following steps: Step 1: Based on the laying pattern of the irrigation pipe, install the splice on one side of the wrapping cloth using the installation components. Then, close and enclose multiple splices to form a ring and wrap the irrigation pipe. Since the wrapping cloth and the leaf spring cooperate to form a semi-wrapping constraint on the splice, the leaf spring provides elastic pre-tightening force to make the connecting strip and the installation groove stably engaged, thereby achieving continuous fixation and overall protection of multiple sets of splices. Step 2: Assemble the fixed folding ring on the other side of the wrapping cloth via the connecting ring. Since the convex ring and the convex groove of the fixed folding ring are rotatably adapted, use the two connecting plates of the B-type and C-type fixed folding rings to lock them with bolts. At the same time, insert the plug rod into the plug groove and use the sealing gasket to achieve end face sealing. When the fixed folding ring is closed to form a circle, the convex ring can no longer rotate, ensuring that the overall structure of the fixed folding ring is fixed and does not loosen. Step 3: When the splicing parts are connected, the hollowed-out cone is inserted and punctures the medicine bag, so that the hollowed-out cone and the medicine bag form a connected cavity, which establishes a channel for the release of desiccant and insect repellent. The desiccant in the hollowed-out cone is slowly released through the hollowed-out groove to achieve moisture prevention around the pipeline, and the insect repellent in the medicine bag diffuses simultaneously to achieve insect prevention protection. Step 4: Repeat the operation of Step 1. In this step, the other half of the newly obtained wrapping cloth is used to wrap the other half of the splice in Step 1 to achieve a complete seal of the splice. In the other half of the splice, the balloon located in the bladder compartment is expanded by the connecting bladder strip to form a buffer layer, which, together with the protective partition on the inner side of the splice, forms flexible protection for the irrigation pipe.

[0013] Preferably, the irrigation pipes in step one are laid in the form of suspended pipes or buried pipes; When the irrigation pipe is suspended, the fixed folding ring and the connecting plate work together to form a suspension support structure, realizing the integration of pipe positioning and protection. When irrigation pipes are buried, the splicing components and protective layers work together to form a corrosion-resistant, compression-resistant, and moisture-proof isolation layer, reducing soil erosion and mechanical damage to the pipes.

[0014] This invention provides a protective irrigation device for mine ecological restoration projects. It has the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention employs a double-layer structure design with splicing components and a fixing folding ring. The inner splicing component fits tightly against the pipeline to provide flexible buffering and sealing, while the outer fixing folding ring provides rigid support and fastening, thereby enhancing the overall protection capability of irrigation pipelines.

[0015] 2. When the splicing parts are connected, the present invention uses a hollowed-out cone to pierce the medicine bag to form a connected space, so that the desiccant and insect repellent inside can be automatically released into the surrounding environment of the pipeline, creating a continuously dry microenvironment with biological repellency, effectively reducing the risk of pipeline damage due to rust or biting.

[0016] 3. This invention utilizes a modular combination of splicing components, wrapping cloth, and fixing folding rings, along with the elastic snap-fit ​​of leaf springs and the hinged locking structure of the fixing folding rings. The installation process requires no complicated tools and can quickly wrap and fix pipes, improving the flexibility and efficiency of on-site construction. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example:

[0020] As one aspect of the present invention, please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 This invention provides a protective irrigation device for mine ecological restoration projects. Both ends of the irrigation pipe 1 are connected to external equipment according to existing technology to form an irrigation system, including: Please see the appendix Figure 7 and attached Figure 8 The two sides of the single splice 2 are symmetrically arranged at the center point, and one side of the splice 2 is provided with a hollowed-out cone 17 and a medicine bag 18. The outer wall of the hollowed-out cone 17 is provided with a hollowed-out groove 19, and an isolation net is fixedly connected to the hollowed-out groove 19. The hollowed-out cone 17 is inserted into the inside of the medicine bag 18 and punctures the medicine bag 18 so that the hollowed-out cone 17 and the medicine bag 18 form a communicating space. The inside of the hollowed-out cone 17 is filled with a desiccant, and the inside of the medicine bag 18 is filled with an insect repellent. Specifically, when multiple splicing parts 2 are joined and closed, the hollowed-out cone 17 on one side directly inserts into and pierces the medicine bag 18 on the opposite side, so that the two form a connected space; the desiccant inside the hollowed-out cone 17 is slowly released through the hollowed-out groove 19 and the isolation net, absorbing the moisture around the pipe to achieve moisture protection; the insect repellent in the medicine bag 18 is simultaneously diffused through the hollowed-out channel, which plays a role in preventing insects and rodents from biting and damaging the pipe.

[0021] Please see the appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 One end of the splice 2 is provided with a bladder compartment 8, and a balloon 3 is placed inside the bladder compartment 8. Multiple balloons 3 are connected by connecting strips 7. A pad for protecting the irrigation pipe 1 is provided on the side of the splice 2 that is in contact with the irrigation pipe 1. Except for the bottom side, the rest of the splice 2 is made of silicone. Specifically, multiple balloons 3 are connected in series by connecting balloon strips 7 to form an elastic buffer layer. The protective layer 9 is used to provide flexible protection against impact, compression, and friction for the irrigation pipe 1. The main body of the splicing component 2 is made of silicone material to further enhance the protection, heat insulation, and anti-aging effects.

[0022] Please see the appendix Figure 3 - Appendix Figure 5Multiple splicing pieces 2 are combined to form a ring that can wrap the outer wall of the irrigation pipe 1. When unfolded, they are on the same horizontal plane. On the side where two splicing pieces 2 are in contact, a leaf spring 11 is fixed on one side of the wrapping cloth 4, and both ends of the leaf spring 11 are fixedly connected to connecting strips 10. The bottom side of the splicing piece 2 is provided with an installation groove to allow the connecting strips 10 to be inserted, so that the splicing piece 2 is installed on one side of the wrapping cloth 4, and the leaf spring 11 is located at half of one side of the wrapping cloth 4, so that the wrapping cloth 4 forms a half-wrapping state after the splicing pieces 2 are combined, while the other half can wrap another set of splicing pieces 2. Specifically, multiple splicing parts 2 are joined together to form a ring, completely wrapping the outer wall of the irrigation pipe 1. The wrapping cloth 4 and the leaf spring 11 provide elastic pre-tightening force, so that the connecting strip 10 is locked into the mounting groove, achieving a stable fit between the splicing parts 2 and the irrigation pipe 1.

[0023] Please see the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 3 and attached Figure 6 The middle part of each fixing folding ring 5 is connected to the other side of the wrapping cloth 4 via a connecting ring 15. There are three types of fixing folding rings 5, namely A, B and C: Wherein, A includes a protruding ring 13 fixedly connected to one end of the fixed folding ring 5, and a protruding groove 14 fixedly connected to the other end; Among them, B includes a protruding ring 13 fixedly connected to one end of the fixed folding ring 5; C includes a groove 14 fixedly connected to one end of the fixed folding ring 5; The convex ring 13 and the convex groove 14 are rotatably connected, and the convex ring 13 cannot rotate to the outer arc side of the fixed folding ring 5. Both B and C types of fixed folding ring 5 have a connecting plate 6 fixedly connected to their other end. The two connecting plates 6 are connected by bolts and a sealing gasket 12 is provided. One side of one connecting plate 6 is fixedly connected to a plug rod 16, and the other connecting plate 6 has a plug groove on one side. The bottom of the connecting plates 6 is fixedly connected to the two sides of the irrigation pipe 1 respectively. Specifically, when the splice 2 is wrapped, the wrapping cloth 4 is manually driven. At this time, the fixing folding ring 5 rotates as the position of the wrapping cloth 4 changes. Due to the rotation setting between the convex ring 13 and the convex groove 14, when the two 6 are locked by bolts, multiple fixing folding rings 5 ​​will form a ring to wrap the wrapping cloth 4 and complete the installation. During this process, the fixing folding ring 5 can achieve a damping effect on the leaf spring 11 inside the wrapping cloth 4.

[0024] As another aspect of the present invention, embodiments of the present invention provide a protective method for a protective irrigation device in a mine ecological restoration project, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Based on the laying pattern of irrigation pipe 1, install splice 2 on one side of wrapping cloth 4 using the installation component, and then close multiple splice 2 to form a ring and wrap the irrigation pipe 1. Since the wrapping cloth 4 and the leaf spring 11 cooperate to form a semi-wrapping constraint on the splice 2, the leaf spring 11 provides elastic pre-tightening force to make the connecting strip 10 stably snap into the mounting groove, thereby realizing the continuous fixing and overall protection of multiple sets of splice 2. The irrigation pipeline 1 is laid in either a suspended pipeline or a buried pipeline. When the irrigation pipe 1 is a suspended type, the fixed folding ring 5 and the connecting plate 6 cooperate to form a suspended support structure, realizing the integration of pipe positioning and protection; When the irrigation pipe 1 is buried, the splicing component 2 and the protective partition 9 work together to form a corrosion-resistant, compression-resistant, and moisture-proof isolation layer, reducing soil erosion and mechanical damage to the pipe; Step 2: Assemble the fixed folding ring 5 on the other side of the wrapping cloth 4 via the connecting ring 15. Since the convex ring 13 and the convex groove 14 of the fixed folding ring 5 are rotatably adapted, the two connecting plates 6 of the B-type and C-type fixed folding ring 5 are locked with bolts. At the same time, insert the insertion rod 16 into the insertion groove and cooperate with the sealing gasket 12 to achieve end face sealing. When the fixed folding ring 5 is closed to form a ring, the convex ring 13 can no longer rotate, ensuring that the overall structure of the fixed folding ring 5 is fixed and does not loosen. Step 3: When the splice 2 is connected, the hollowed-out cone 17 is inserted into and punctures the medicine bag 18, so that the hollowed-out cone 17 and the medicine bag 18 form a connected cavity, which establishes a channel for the release of desiccant and insect repellent. The desiccant in the hollowed-out cone 17 is slowly released through the hollowed-out groove 19 to achieve moisture prevention around the pipeline, and the insect repellent in the medicine bag 18 diffuses synchronously to achieve insect protection. Step 4: Repeat the operation of Step 1. In this step, the other half of the newly obtained wrapping cloth 4 is used to wrap the other half of the splice 2 in Step 1 to achieve a full seal of the splice 2. Since the balloon 3 located in the bladder chamber 8 in the other half of the splice 2 is expanded by the connecting bladder strip 7 to form a buffer layer, it works with the protective partition 9 on the inner side of the splice 2 to form flexible protection for the irrigation pipe 1.

[0025] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
