Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of utility pole technology, and more specifically, to the base for mounting utility poles. Background Technology

[0002] Existing utility pole bases are generally made of concrete, which is poured directly into a pre-designed pit. Since the concrete is surrounded by plain soil, the installation stability of the utility pole is reduced, affecting the service life of the utility pole base.

[0003] In the patent document with publication number "CN218148484U" and title "A Long-Service-Life Utility Pole Base", a long-service-life utility pole base is disclosed, which includes a concrete layer, a concrete pad layer at the bottom of the concrete layer, a graded crushed stone layer at the bottom of the concrete pad layer, a utility pole body at the top of the concrete layer, and the bottom of the utility pole body extending into the interior of the concrete layer.

[0004] In actual installation, in order to meet the deadline and install the utility poles within a limited time, concrete pouring often takes even longer, which is inconvenient and cannot guarantee the stability of the installation. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the above-mentioned shortcomings by providing a utility pole mounting base that is more secure to install, takes less time, and is easy to use.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows: a base for installing utility poles, characterized in that: it includes multiple base pieces made of concrete, each base piece having a fan-shaped cross-section, the base piece including an inner arc surface, an outer arc surface, and a side surface connecting the inner arc surface and the outer arc surface, when multiple base pieces are arranged in a circumferential array together, forming a complete mounting base, the middle of the mounting base being a pole root receiving cavity for accommodating the root of the utility pole.

[0007] Furthermore, each of the two side surfaces has a through-type convex strip and a groove, which are mating structures. When a complete mounting base is formed, the convex strips and grooves of adjacent base pieces are mated and connected.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer surface of the mounting base has multiple wedge holes, the outer ends of which are inclined upwards, and multiple concrete wedges that can be hammered into the wedge holes.

[0009] Furthermore, the convex strip and groove are wedge-shaped structures that are wider at the top and narrower at the bottom.

[0010] Furthermore, at least one base piece has a sliding groove for the pole root to slide into the pole root receiving cavity, or two adjacent base pieces together form a sliding groove for the pole root to slide into the pole root receiving cavity. The lower part of the sliding groove is a sloping structure, and the sliding groove is connected to the inner arc-shaped surface (root receiving cavity); a waterproof coating layer is provided on the side surface.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a filler block that can be installed into the groove.

[0012] Furthermore, the mounting base has a platform-shaped structure with the bottom facing downwards.

[0013] Furthermore, the mounting base also has an annular groove and an annular ring that can be placed in the annular groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the ring comprises multiple ring plates.

[0015] Furthermore, the annular groove includes an inner annular groove on the inner side of the mounting base and an outer annular groove on the outer side of the mounting base. The ring installed in the inner annular groove is the inner annular groove, and the ring installed in the outer annular groove is the outer annular groove. The outer annular groove has an extension portion that extends outward beyond the mounting base.

[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a concrete liner ring, the inner diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the cavity at the root of the pole, and the liner ring has a lower inner surface.

[0017] Furthermore, the base plate also has alignment holes for the insertion of alignment components.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention are: such a pole base has the advantages of more secure installation, shorter installation time, and convenient use. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows: a base for installing utility poles, characterized in that: it includes multiple base pieces 1 made of concrete, each base piece having a fan-shaped cross-section, the base piece including an inner arc surface 11, an outer arc surface 12, and a side surface 13 connecting the inner arc surface and the outer arc surface, when multiple base pieces are arranged in a circular array together, forming a complete mounting base, the middle of the mounting base being a pole root receiving cavity 2 for accommodating the root of the utility pole 100.

[0026] The above-described configuration of the present invention allows for the fabrication of multiple base pieces before mounting the utility pole, the excavation of a pit at the location where the utility pole will be mounted, the formation of multiple base pieces into a complete mounting base, and the placement of the utility pole in the receiving cavity at the base of the pole, which ensures that the utility pole is securely installed. The soil around the mounting base is then compacted.

[0027] Furthermore, the two side surfaces each have a through-type protrusion 131 and a groove 132, which are mating structures. When a complete mounting base is formed, the protrusions and grooves of adjacent base pieces are mated and connected.

[0028] The above-mentioned design of the present invention makes it easier for the mounting base to be integrated into a single unit.

[0029] Furthermore, the outer surface of the mounting base has multiple wedge holes 14, the outer ends of which are inclined upwards, and multiple concrete wedges 3 that can be hammered into the wedge holes.

[0030] The above-mentioned configuration of the present invention also has the advantage of allowing the wedge to be hammered into the wedge hole after installation, resulting in better connection between the mounting base and the surrounding soil.

[0031] Furthermore, the convex strip and groove are wedge-shaped structures that are wider at the top and narrower at the bottom.

[0032] The above-mentioned design of this invention makes it easier for the mounting base to become a single unit, and the mounting base after installation has the advantage of being flatter.

[0033] Furthermore, at least one base piece has a sliding groove 15 for the pole root to slide into the pole root receiving cavity, or two adjacent base pieces together form a sliding groove for the pole root to slide into the receiving cavity. The lower part 151 of the sliding groove is a sloping structure, and the sliding groove is connected to the inner arc surface (root receiving cavity); a waterproof coating layer 5 is provided on the side surface.

[0034] This invention also allows for the tilting of the utility pole during installation, with its base sliding into the groove. By lifting the pole upwards, it can be placed in the base cavity, thus facilitating the cultivation of the utility pole.

[0035] Furthermore, it also includes a filler block 6 that can be installed into the groove.

[0036] This invention also features a feature where, after the utility pole is mounted, the filler block is placed in the sliding groove, making the entire sliding groove structure more complete.

[0037] Furthermore, the mounting base has a platform-shaped structure 7 with the bottom facing downwards.

[0038] This design also better suits the shape of the cultivation pit, since the cultivation pit of a utility pole is generally low in the middle, which also facilitates the fitting of the lower liner ring 9.

[0039] Furthermore, the mounting base also has an annular groove 16 and an annular ring 8 that can be placed in the annular groove.

[0040] This invention is configured in such a way that, after mounting the utility pole, the ring is placed in the ring groove, making the entire structure that slides into the groove more complete.

[0041] Furthermore, the ring comprises multiple ring plates.

[0042] Furthermore, the annular groove includes an inner annular groove 161 on the inner side of the mounting base and an outer annular groove 162 on the outer side of the mounting base. The ring installed in the inner annular groove is the inner ring 81, and the ring installed in the outer annular groove is the outer ring 82. The outer ring has an extension portion 821 extending outward beyond the mounting base.

[0043] Furthermore, it also includes a concrete liner ring 9, the inner diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the cavity at the root of the pole, and the upper part of which has a lower inner side structure.

[0044] This invention is designed in such a way that the entire mounting base can easily form a cohesive whole that is not easily disintegrated after installation.

[0045] Furthermore, the base plate also has alignment holes 17 for the insertion of alignment components.

[0046] This invention is designed in such a way that, during installation, the lever is inserted into the alignment hole, and the position of the base piece can be adjusted by holding the lever to achieve a more suitable installation position for the base piece.

[0047] The scope of protection of this invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principles of this invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions resulting from these changes or substitutions will all fall within the scope of protection of this invention.
