[0025] In one embodiment, reference Figure 2 The ground cage embedded part 20 includes an upper ring plate 21, a lower ring plate 22 and a plurality of anchor bolts 23. The upper ring plate 21 and the lower ring plate 22 are arranged opposite to each other up and down. The anchor bolts 23 penetrate the upper ring plate 21 and the lower ring plate 22, and the anchor bolts 23 are welded to the upper ring plate 21 and the lower ring plate 22. The part of the anchor bolt 23 extending from the upper side of the upper ring plate 21 is a bolt connection end 231 with a thread. The bolt connection end 231 is used to lock the lower tower of the absorption tower. The plurality of anchor bolts 23 are evenly spaced along the circumference. An upper cross frame 24 is provided in the upper ring plate 21, and a lower cross frame 25 is provided in the lower ring plate 22. The centers of the upper cross frame 24 and the lower cross frame 25 are connected by a vertical bracket 26.

[0026] Specifically, the bottom end of the lower tower of the absorption tower has a tower base, and the anchor bolts 23 are fixedly connected to the tower base through locking nuts. The lower end of the absorption tower is fixed in the circumferential direction by evenly distributing a number of anchor bolts 23 and the tower base at intervals along the circumference. The upper cross frame 24, the lower cross frame 25 and the vertical bracket 26 can be welded with angle steel, which can enhance the anti-deformation ability of the cage embedded part 20. For easy transportation, the cage embedded part 20 can be divided into two semicircular cages with the same and symmetrical structure, and then welded into a whole at the construction site.

[0027] refer to Figure 3 The diameter of the bottom of the foundation pit becomes larger, the bottom steel mesh 31 covers the bottom of the foundation pit, and the side steel mesh 32 covers the wall of the foundation pit.

[0028] The lightning protection grounding component 40 includes a horizontal grounding grid 42 and multiple vertical grounding electrodes 43. The lower end of the grounding flat steel 41 is welded to the horizontal grounding grid 42. The upper end of the grounding flat steel 41 is exposed above the ground and connected to the lower tower of the absorption tower. Multiple vertical grounding electrodes 43 are dispersedly connected to the horizontal grounding grid 42.

[0029] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The horizontal grounding grid 42 includes a polygonal grounding grid formed by connecting a plurality of first horizontal hot-dip galvanized flat steels 421 in a polygonal form around the foundation concrete body 10. The vertical grounding electrode 43 is a vertical hot-dip galvanized angle steel 43. A vertical grounding electrode 43 is connected at the connection of two first horizontal hot-dip galvanized flat steels 421.

Therefore, when the tower wall thickness of the absorption tower is greater than or equal to 4mm, the tower body itself is a conductor, and the cage embedded part 20 is also a conductor, so the cage embedded part 20 and the lightning protection grounding part 40 can be connected together. By setting it in this way, the grounding area of ​​the lightning protection grounding part 40 is increased, and the lightning protection grounding part is arranged on the surrounding side and the lower side of the cage embedded part 20, so that the foundation structure is more concentrated, which can be suitable for foundation construction in a location with a small construction space.

[0031] The horizontal grounding grid 42 is also connected to a test grounding electrode 44 , the top of which is exposed above the ground. The top of the test grounding electrode 44 is used to connect to a resistance test terminal.

[0032] The present application improves the overall stability and strength of the foundation concrete body 10 by using the steel reinforcement 30 to prevent deformation or damage of the foundation structure caused by load or earthquake, and fixes the absorption tower to the foundation concrete body 10 by using the ground cage embedded parts 20. The ground cage embedded parts 20 support the surroundings of the lower tower of the absorption tower, so that the absorption tower can withstand wind and earthquake to avoid tipping over due to external forces. The present application also prevents the absorption tower from being affected by lightning by setting a lightning protection grounding part 40. Therefore, the anti-tilt and lightning protection foundation of the absorption tower of the present application can ensure the stable and safe operation of the absorption tower.

[0033] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described.
