Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a cofferdam structure for bridge pier construction, which is used to form a circular cofferdam on a riverbed 1 to facilitate the construction of bridge piers, and includes a plurality of pile rods 2, the plurality of pile rods 2 are arranged in a circular array, the lower ends of the pile rods 2 are placed in the riverbed 1, and the lower ends of the pile rods 2 are provided with cushion blocks 21;

[0027] In specific implementation, the pile rod 2 is a steel pipe pile; the pad 21 is a concrete block. When burying the steel pipe pile, first drill a hole on the riverbed at the burying position, then place the steel pipe pile in the hole, and continue to turn downward from the inside of the steel pipe pile, while drilling and extracting the mud generated during drilling, until the lower end of the steel pipe pile is buried in the riverbed to a predetermined depth, and then use the expansion drill bit to extend the lower end of the steel pipe pile to expand the hole and drill, after extracting the mud and waste water, pour concrete, the concrete needs to be filled to a certain height inside the steel pipe pile, and then form a good support foundation for the steel pipe pile, until all the steel pipe piles are set.

[0028] More specifically, it also includes an inner corbel 3 and an inner arc-shaped insert plate 4, as well as an outer corbel 5 and an outer arc-shaped insert plate 6. The inner corbel 3 is vertically arranged on the pile rod 2, and the outer corbel 5 is vertically arranged on the pile rod 2. The outer corbel 5 and the inner corbel 3 are symmetrically arranged about the pile rod 2.

[0029] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, it also includes a plurality of inner purlins 8 and outer purlins 9. The plurality of inner purlins 8 are vertically spaced inside the plurality of piles 2, and the inner purlins 8 are connected to the plurality of inner corbels 3; the plurality of outer purlins 9 are vertically spaced outside the plurality of piles 2, and the outer purlins 9 are connected to the plurality of outer corbels 5.

[0030] In specific implementation, after several steel pipe piles are set up, multiple inner purlins 8 are installed at intervals on the inner corbels 3 on the several steel pipe piles. At the same time, multiple outer purlins 9 need to be installed at intervals on the outer corbels 5 of the several steel pipe piles, usually by bolt connection or welding. At the same time, the outer purlins 9 correspond to the inner purlins 8 one by one, or are alternately arranged. The pile bodies of the several steel pipe piles are mainly limited and fixed by the several inner purlins 8 and the several outer purlins 9 to form a stable circular foundation.

[0031] More specifically, Figure 1-5 As shown, first slide grooves 31 are vertically arranged on both sides of the inner corbels 3; inner arc-shaped inserting plates 4 are vertically inserted into the first slide grooves 31 between adjacent inner corbels 3, and a plurality of inner arc-shaped inserting plates 4 form a cylinder.

[0032] Meanwhile, second slide grooves 51 are vertically arranged on both sides of the outer corbels 5 ; outer arc-shaped insert plates 6 are vertically inserted into the second slide grooves 51 between adjacent outer corbels 5 , and a plurality of outer arc-shaped insert plates 6 form a cylindrical shape.

[0033] In specific implementation, the lower ends of the outer arc plug plate 6 and the inner arc plug plate 4 are both tapered, so that they can be inserted into the riverbed when lowered to block water leakage; when the steel pipe piles and the inner purlin 8 and the outer purlin 9 are installed in place, the inner arc plug plate 4 is inserted from the top between the several inner corbels 3. The inner arc plug plate 4 is mainly an arc-shaped steel plate. Several inner arc plug plates 4 form a circle. After the accumulated water inside the cofferdam is drained, a cylindrical cofferdam support can be formed. In some shallow waters or places with low external pressure, only this structure can be used.

[0034] When encountering deep water or high external pressure, it is necessary to insert an outer arc plug plate 6 from the top between several outer brackets 5. The outer arc plug plate 6 is mainly an arc-shaped steel plate. Several outer arc plug plates 6 form a circle and are coaxially arranged outside several inner arc plug plates 4 forming a ring to form a good support surface. After the internal water is subsequently drained, the cylindrical support structure can form a good support system.

[0035] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, if necessary, a sealing material 7 can be filled between the outer arc-shaped plug plate 6 and the inner arc-shaped plug plate 4. The sealing material is usually river sand and gravel, etc., which are filled between the outer arc-shaped plug plate 6 and the inner arc-shaped plug plate 4 to isolate the leakage of external water and enhance the stability of the overall structure. If you want to form a permanent or long-term cofferdam, you can fill it with steel frames and concrete fillers.

[0036] In summary, to form a cofferdam of the support system, it is only necessary to install the steel pipe piles, the outer purlin 9 and the inner purlin 8, and then insert the outer arc plug plate 6 and the inner arc plug plate 4 at the corresponding positions to form a ring-shaped support system. At the same time, gravel and other fillers can be filled between the corresponding outer arc plug plate 6 and the inner arc plug plate 4. After the internal accumulated water is drained, a stable cylindrical support system is formed under the pressure of the external water. When it needs to be dismantled, it is only necessary to wait until the internal water pressure is consistent with the external water pressure, and then first pull out the outer arc plug plate 6. shaped plug plate 6 and the inner arc plug plate 4, then remove the inner purlin 8 and the outer purlin 9, and finally lift the steel pipe pile. If the lower end of the steel pipe pile is connected to the concrete block, dig up some riverbeds, pull them out together, and break them on the ground; installation and disassembly are very simple, and the parts used are not many, and its weight and volume are much smaller than those of traditional devices, especially when installing steel pipe piles, the number of installations is much less than that of traditional steel pipe piles, saving a lot of manpower and material resources.
