Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of detection and protection of steel pipe pile pile heads, and particularly relates to a detection and protection device for steel pipe pile pile heads. Background Art

[0002] The pile foundation is a foundation form with high bearing capacity, wide application range and long history. With the improvement of production level and the development of science and technology, the types, processes, design theories, calculation methods and application ranges of pile foundations have all developed greatly and are widely used in high-rise buildings, ports, bridges and other projects. The steel pipe piles in the pile foundation are widely used due to their large horizontal resistance, strong transverse force resistance and great design flexibility. The wall thickness of the steel pipe pile is generally between 3.5 mm and 80 mm. The wall thicknesses of the thin-walled steel pipe piles currently used in offshore photovoltaic projects are 10 mm and 11 mm. The inside of the steel pipe pile is a hollow structure. When performing hammering detection, the pile head is subjected to a large impact force, and the rigid hammer collides with the rigid pile head, which easily deforms the pile head and affects subsequent construction. In order to protect the pile head from damage, a pile cushion is placed on the pile head.

[0003] At present, the commonly used pile cushions are generally 10 mm to 30 mm thick wooden boards or plywood, which are not easy to fix and have a risk of falling off, resulting in poor protection effect on the pile head and easy damage to the pile head. After the pile cushion falls off, it needs to be manually re-placed, with high safety risks. The wooden board or plywood can hardly be recycled; at the same time, for short piles and piles with small bearing capacity, using wooden boards usually affects the matching of the pile hammer, and the measured curve has more low-frequency components and a narrower excited frequency domain, resulting in "distorted" results.

[0004] In addition, if the pile head is damaged during detection due to the falling off of the pile cushion, the pile foundation needs to be reworked, which affects the construction period and increases the cost. The existing pile cushion fixing devices are only applicable to pile foundations with a fixed pile diameter. The pile heads of the steel pipe piles used in offshore photovoltaics are variable-diameter piles and are not applicable to the existing pile head protection devices.

[0005] In summary, there is currently no pile head protection device applicable to variable-diameter steel pipe piles, which increases the difficulty and uncertainty of detection and directly affects the quality of the pile foundation.

[0006] How to solve the above problems is the research topic of this solution. Content of the Utility Model

[0007] In order to achieve the above utility model purpose and address the above technical problems, the utility model provides a detection and protection device for steel pipe pile pile heads.

[0008] The technical solution is that it includes a pile cushion and an internal support structure. The pile cushion is placed on the top surface of the foundation pile, that is, between the top surface of the foundation pile and the pile hammer. The internal support structure is arranged to fit the inner diameter of the steel pipe pile and is disposed inside the pile head of the steel pipe pile.

[0009] The inner support structure includes a lining layer, a support groove, an adjustable screw rod, an engaging groove, a hook, and a screw head;

[0010] The pile cushion includes an elastic layer, a rigid layer, a threaded opening, and a force - transmitting steel column.

[0011] The rigid layer includes two upper and lower steel plate layers, and the elastic layer includes a rubber structure layer disposed between the two steel plate layers and a rubber sleeve sleeved outside the steel plate layers;

[0012] The steel plate layers and the rubber structure layer are arranged in an alternating laminated pattern, and several force - transmitting steel columns are welded between the two steel plate layers.

[0013] The pile cushion is used to be placed on the top surface of the foundation pile, that is, located between the top surface of the foundation pile and the pile hammer. The elastic layer is the main structural layer of the pile cushion, which has good elasticity and protects the steel pipe pile. The steel plate layer is arranged inside the pile cushion and between the rubber structure layers, and is used to transmit force to the foundation pile without affecting the wave velocity of the pile body. The composite - structure pile cushion composed of an elastic layer and a rigid layer has good protection, high stability, can be recycled, ensures that the pile cushion is not damaged when being hammered, and can also ensure the accuracy of the hammer - impact test results.

[0014] The force - transmitting steel columns connect the upper and lower steel plates into a whole for better force transmission.

[0015] The inner support structure adopts a split - type design. This structure is at least divided into two pieces, and each piece is designed as an arc - shaped steel plate that fits the inner diameter of the steel pipe pile;

[0016] The threaded opening is arranged at the bottom surface of the pile cushion. When setting the steel plate layer, the threaded opening is welded to the steel plate and is wrapped by the external rubber sleeve. The inner ring of the threaded opening is provided with internal threads. Since the pile head of the steel pipe pile has a variable - diameter design and the pile - mouth diameter is the smallest, in order to put the inner support structure in, a split design is adopted. This structure is at least divided into two pieces, and each piece is designed as an arc - shaped steel plate that fits the inner diameter of the steel pipe pile. The size of the inner support structure is set for steel pipe piles with different pile diameters and is arranged inside the pile head of the steel pipe pile. Due to the variable - diameter design of the steel pipe pile, it is easy to be indented and deformed inward when being hammered. The inner support structure is set to help the pile head bear force, resist deformation, and is also used to connect the pile cushion to prevent the pile cushion from shifting.

[0017] The lining layer is set as a rubber layer and is pasted on the outer surface of the inner support structure to protect the inner wall of the steel pipe pile and prevent the steel pipe pile from being damaged when being squeezed by the inner support structure during hammering.

[0018] The support grooves are symmetrically opened in the arc - shaped steel plates of the inner support structure. The inner wall of the support groove is provided with threads, and the support groove is thread - matched with the adjustable screw rod;

[0019] Multiple groups of the support grooves are arranged vertically.

[0020] The adjustable screw rod is made of iron or steel. Threads are provided at both ends of the adjustable screw rod, which can be telescopically adjusted and is used to screw into the support grooves of the arc-shaped steel plates of the two inner support structures to make the whole structure stable, support the steel pipe pile from the inside, and prevent deformation.

[0021] The bite groove is arranged at the interface of the two arc-shaped steel plates of the inner support structure and is used for the two arc-shaped steel plates to bite and fix, preventing the two arc-shaped steel plates from shifting.

[0022] The hook is arranged on the upper part of the two arc-shaped steel plates of the inner support structure and is used for temporary suspension during the assembly of the inner support structure. The hook is suspended at the opening of the steel pipe pile.

[0023] The thread head is arranged at the upper opening of the inner support arc-shaped steel plate. The thread head is provided with an external thread and is used for connecting and fixing with the threaded opening of the pile cushion.

[0024] For the protection device of the pile top against hammering detection, the pile cushion is designed with a threaded opening that can be connected to the inner support structure, making the pile cushion more stable during use. A force-transmitting steel column is arranged between the two arc-shaped steel plates inside the pile cushion, which can transmit force better.

[0025] An inner support structure is provided. The inner support structure is set according to the size of the pile foundation. The inner support structure is assembled by two arc-shaped steel plates. A bite groove is arranged at the interface of the arc-shaped steel plates, enabling the two arc-shaped steel plates to be better combined into a whole.

[0026] A lining layer is arranged on the surface of the inner support structure. The lining layer is a rubber structure and is evenly arranged along the inner circumference of the pile foundation.

[0027] Six support grooves are arranged on the two arc-shaped steel plates. Four are arranged on the center lines of the arc-shaped plates, and two are arranged at the interfaces of the arc-shaped plates, which are symmetric in pairs and are used for the adjustable screw rod to support and bear force. The support grooves are in the form of threaded openings, and the adjustable screw rod is screwed in to prevent the screw rod from falling off due to hammering vibration.

[0028] The hammer foundation detection protection device is provided with three adjustable screw rods. The adjustable screw rods are placed inside the inner support structure and are screwed into the support grooves to tighten the inner support structure, enabling the inner support structure to resist the deformation of the pile foundation during hammering.

[0029] One hook is arranged on the upper part of each of the two arc-shaped steel plates of the inner support structure and is used for temporarily fixing the arc-shaped steel plates.

[0030] The upper opening of the inner support structure is set as a thread head for connecting with the pile cushion.

[0031] All the structures designed for the hammer foundation detection protection device are based on the number of arc-shaped steel plates being 2.

[0032] The beneficial effects brought by the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present utility model are as follows: This solution provides a protection device for the impact detection of variable-diameter piles, aiming to solve the problems that the steel pipe pile is damaged by the heavy hammer impact during pile foundation detection, affecting the pile head and the quality of pile foundation construction. The application of this device improves the detection efficiency, avoids potential risks such as rework due to pile head damage and the influence of traditional wooden pile cushions on monitoring data, provides certain reference value for future pile foundation construction and detection, and helps to promote the development and application of steel pipe piles;

[0033] By setting the pile cushion, it is ensured that the pile head is not damaged during the impact detection. Compared with the traditional setting of wooden boards or plywood, the new rubber cushion can be reused. An internal support structure is set to prevent the variable-diameter pile head from being sunken inward when being hammered. The internal support structure uses segmented arc-shaped steel plates and the design of adjustable screw rods, which can ensure that the internal support structure can be smoothly placed into the pile mouth, with simple assembly and good support effect. The internal support structure is threadedly connected to the pile cushion, ensuring the stability of the pile cushion and the internal support structure, avoiding the pile cushion and the internal support structure from falling off and shifting under impact during hammering, with simple connection, convenient operation and good use effect;

[0034] All the fittings of this device can be reused. For one type of pile, a set of hammer foundation detection protection devices can complete all the detection work. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
