[0004] The existing single-sided overflow channel can no longer meet the maintenance calculation requirements, and the surge height can only be slightly improved by expanding the gate well section and tunnel diameter. In addition, the solution of raising the hoist maintenance platform not only increases the engineering workload, but also makes the overall layout and the connection between the maintenance platform and the dam top road appear inconsistent due to the elevation difference.

[0024] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0025] See also Figures 1 to 5 A double-sided overflow channel structure for solving the problem of excessive surge in a power station gate shaft includes an overflow middle channel 1 located in the middle and an overflow side channel 2 located on the side of the overflow middle channel 1.
[0026] The inner outlet of the overflow middle channel 1 near the reservoir area faces the reservoir basin, and the inner overflow port 11 is opened at the inner upper part of the gate well hole 102 near the reservoir area. The outer side of the overflow middle channel 1 away from the reservoir area is connected to the gate well hole 102 of the power station through the inner overflow port 11. The bottom slope of the overflow middle channel 1 is always a positive slope, and the slope can be adjusted according to the discharge flow demand.
[0027] As a specific implementation of the overflow channel 2, see Figures 2 to 4 The overflow channel 2 is U-shaped as a whole, including the side channel sections 21 located on both sides of the overflow channel 1 and the end channel sections 22 located on the outside of the overflow channel 1 away from the reservoir area. The side channel sections 21 on both sides of the overflow channel 2 are close to the inner outlet of the reservoir area and face the reservoir basin. The outer overflow port 23 is opened on the upper part of the outer side of the gate well 102 away from the reservoir area. The end channel section 22 of the overflow channel 2 is connected to the gate well 102 through the outer overflow port 23. The bottom slope of the side channel sections 21 on both sides of the overflow channel 2 is always a positive slope, and the slope can be adjusted according to the discharge flow demand.
[0028] The bottom elevation of the outer overflow port 23 is the same as that of the inner overflow port 11 .
[0029] In this embodiment, the overflow side channel 2 and the overflow middle channel 1 are formed by two peripheral side piers 24, side walls 25 at the ends and two middle piers 12 in the middle.
[0030] The overflow ports on both sides are control sections that affect the height of the surge. When the pump-turbine unit is under unfavorable working conditions, the water in the pressure tunnel 101 instantly surges up the water level of the gate well. After reaching the elevation of the channel bottom, the inner overflow port 11 and the overflow middle channel 1 on the inner side of the reservoir directly discharge the surged water into the reservoir, and the outer overflow port 23 on the other side discharges the surged water through the circular U-shaped overflow side channel 2 and finally into the reservoir, so that the surge water always flows back into the reservoir, realizing the recycling of water resources in the reservoir area.
[0031] As another specific implementation of the overflow channel 2, see Figure 5 The overflow channel 2 is L-shaped as a whole, including a side channel section 21 located on one side of the overflow channel 1 and an end channel section 22 located on the outside of the overflow channel 1 away from the reservoir area. The side channel section 21 of the overflow channel 2 is close to the inner outlet of the reservoir area and faces the reservoir basin. An outer overflow port 23 is opened at the upper outer part of the gate well 102 away from the reservoir area, and the end channel section 22 of the overflow channel 2 is connected to the gate well 102 through the outer overflow port 23. The bottom slope of the side channel section 21 of the overflow channel 2 is always a positive slope, and the slope can be adjusted according to the discharge flow demand.
[0032] The bottom elevation of the outer overflow port 23 is the same as that of the inner overflow port 11 .
[0033] In this embodiment, the overflow side channel 2 and the overflow middle channel 1 are formed by a side pier 24 located on one side of the periphery, a side wall 25 at the end, and two middle piers 12 located on the other side of the periphery and in the middle.
[0034] The overflow channel 2 can be unilateral as long as it meets the discharge flow requirements of the project. The water in the pressure tunnel 101 instantly surges up the water level of the gate well, and after reaching the channel bottom elevation, the excess flow is discharged through the overflow ports on both sides, the overflow middle channel 1 and the L-shaped overflow channel 2.
[0035] In the above two specific embodiments, the connection mode of the overflow middle channel 1 and the overflow side channel 2 with the gate well 102 can be a curve, a straight line or a broken line according to the overflow coefficient or construction requirements. The cross-sectional height, width and cross-sectional shape of the overflow middle channel 1 and the overflow side channel 2 are rectangular, trapezoidal, circular or irregular, which can be determined according to the engineering requirements.
[0036] The above description is only a specific implementation method of the utility model, and does not limit the patent scope of the utility model. Any equivalent structural transformation made using the contents of the utility model specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly used in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the utility model.
