The utility model provides an inlet structure type that can effectively control the flow state of the inlet water, reduce local head loss, and save engineering investment for engineering areas with limited terrain and geological conditions, thereby solving the problem of inlet drainage of the drainage tunnel with two parallel axes.

[0031] See also Figures 1 to 7 The utility model provides a drainage tunnel inlet structure for two parallel axis arrangements, comprising a first left wall 3, a first diversion open channel bottom plate 4, a first right wall 5, a second left wall 6, a second diversion open channel bottom plate 7 and a second right wall 8;

[0032] The first flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 1 and the second flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 2 are arranged in parallel with each other in the axis direction, and the first flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 1 is located on the left side of the second flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 2; the first right wall 5 and the second left wall 6 are symmetrically arranged at the center position of the entrance of the first flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 1 and the second flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 2;

[0033] The first left wall 3 is arranged on the left side of the first right wall 5, and the first water diversion open channel bottom plate 4 is arranged at the bottom of the first right wall 5 and the first left wall 3; the first left wall 3, the first water diversion open channel bottom plate 4 and the first right wall 5 form a first flow passage; the axis of the first flow passage is collinear with the axis of the first flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 1;

[0034] The second right wall 8 is arranged on the right side of the second left wall 6, and the second water diversion open channel bottom plate 7 is arranged at the bottom of the second left wall 6 and the second right wall 8; the second left wall 6, the second water diversion open channel bottom plate 7 and the second right wall 8 form a second flow passage; the axis of the second flow passage is collinear with the axis of the second flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 2.

[0035] In the present invention, the inlet front edges of the first right wall 5 and the second left wall 6 are in contact and aligned to form a water flow dividing line. The flow-through surfaces of the first right wall 5 and the second left wall 6 are arc-shaped curved surfaces. The first right wall 5 and the second left wall 6 form a guide wall in the inlet section.

[0036] The first left wall 3 is a lining structure of the slope excavation surface, and adopts a twisted surface arrangement, so that the first flow passage is unidirectionally contracted along the water flow direction.

[0037] The flow surface of the second right wall 8 is an arc-shaped curved surface, and the arc radius of the second right wall 8 is the same as the arc radius of the second left wall 6, so that the second flow channel is symmetrically bidirectionally contracted along the water flow direction.

[0038] It can be seen that the first right wall 5 and the second left wall 6 are arranged symmetrically, and the first left wall 3 and the second right wall 8 are arranged asymmetrically on the plane.

[0039] In the present invention, the inlet front edges of the first left wall 3, the first water diversion open channel bottom plate 4, the first right wall 5, the second left wall 6, the second water diversion open channel bottom plate 7 and the second right wall 8 are flush. The first water diversion open channel bottom plate 4 and the second water diversion open channel bottom plate 7 are arranged horizontally.

[0040] The utility model provides a drainage tunnel inlet structure for two parallel axis arrangements, which is arranged at the inlet positions of the first flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 1 and the second flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 2, which are parallel axis arrangements, so that the first flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 1 and the second flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 2 share the same drainage tunnel inlet structure. When the water reaches the drainage tunnel inlet structure, it is divided into two left and right streams through the front edges of the first right wall 5 and the second left wall 6; the left stream flows through the first flow passage formed by the first left wall 3, the first water diversion open channel bottom plate 4 and the first right wall 5, and then flows into the first flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 1; the right stream flows through the second flow passage formed by the second left wall 6, the second water diversion open channel bottom plate 7 and the second right wall 8, and then flows into the second flood discharge and sand discharge tunnel 2.

The second right wall 8 and the second left wall 6 have the same degree of influence on the inlet water flow. When the water flows through the second flow channel, it will not be greatly disturbed, which can effectively improve the flow state of the water and reduce local head loss.

This inlet structure provides design ideas and references for the inlet layout of similar engineering drainage buildings, which is of reference significance.

[0044] The following is an example of a water discharge building inlet structure of a certain project using the technical solution of the utility model, and further explained in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0045] As attached Figure 1As shown in the figure, in a pumped storage power station project, the lower reservoir discharge structure consists of two flood discharge and sand discharge tunnels with parallel axes and the same cavern size. The inlet is a common diversion open channel, which consists of a common diversion open channel section, a lock chamber section, a pressure-free tunnel section, a common discharge chute section, a common stilling pool section, and a common protection tank section. In order to make full use of the terrain and geological conditions, improve the flow pattern of water flow, and reduce local head loss, a common diversion open channel is used for the inlet. In order to ensure good flow patterns at the inlets of the two flood discharge and sand discharge tunnels and prevent siltation, the diversion channel section is expanded and the width is transitioned from 81m to 37.6m. The tail of the diversion open channel is divided into two diversion open channels by the middle guide wall formed by the first right wall 5 and the second left wall 6. The head of the middle guide wall consists of two sections of arc-shaped guide walls with a certain height, namely: the first right wall 5 and the second left wall 6, the arc radius of which is 20m, and the tail is connected to the top plate of the lock chamber with a slope of 1:0.5. From the plane, it is symmetrically distributed.

[0046] The first left wall 3 adopts a twisted surface layout, with a width of 3m at the head and 5m at the tail at the top elevation. When transitioning to the bottom elevation, the head gradually changes from 3m to 12.5m, and the width of the tail remains unchanged. The diversion open channel on the left is the first flow channel, which is arranged in a unidirectional contraction type. The first left wall 3 is a slope excavation surface lining structure. The top of the second right wall 8 adopts an arc-shaped layout, and the radius is the same as the radius of the middle diversion pier, which is 20m. The top of the second right wall 8 is a vertical section, and an arc-shaped base is arranged at the bottom. The base is 3m thick. The top and bottom bases are arranged with a slope transition of 1:0.3. The second flow channel is arranged in a symmetrical bidirectional contraction type on the plane. It has been proven that it can effectively improve the flow state of water, reduce local head loss, and save engineering investment.

[0047] The utility model provides an inlet structure for a drainage tunnel with two parallel axes, which provides a simple structure for engineering areas with limited terrain and geological conditions, and can effectively improve the flow pattern of water flow, reduce local head loss, and save engineering investment, thereby solving the problem of drainage in the inlet of the drainage tunnel with two parallel axes. It provides design ideas and references for the outlet layout of flood discharge buildings in similar projects, which is of reference significance.

[0048] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be considered as the protection scope of the present invention.
