[0026] As Figures 1 to 6 shown, the embodiment of the present utility model discloses a technical solution of an expansive soil subgrade drying device.

[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] The expansive soil subgrade drying device includes a pipe body 100 and a guard plate 200; a partition 120 is arranged in the pipe body 100, and the partition 120 divides the pipe body 100 into two or more pipe cavities. A plurality of water seepage holes 111 are arranged on the pipe wall 110 of the pipe body 100; one end of the pipe body 100 is connected to the guard plate 200, and two or more air flow exchange ports 210 are opened on the guard plate 200, and the two or more air flow exchange ports 210 are respectively connected to the two or more pipe cavities of the pipe body 100.

[0030] The pipe body 100 is preferably a circular pipe, so that the pressures in all directions are relatively balanced, and the stability of the pipe body 100 under the slope pressure is improved.

[0031] The pipe body 100 is preferably a flat structure, thereby expanding the contact area between the pipe body 100 and the soil, making the drying effect further expanded. In order to prevent deformation, a plurality of support columns can be arranged inside.

[0032] Embodiment 2

[0033] The connection method of this embodiment is basically the same as that of embodiment 1, except that a curved end 300 is extended from the other end of the tube body 100, a partition 120 is provided inside the curved end 300, the partition 120 divides the curved end 300 into two or more lumens, and a plurality of water seepage holes 111 are provided on the tube wall 110 of the curved end 300.

[0034] Example 3

[0035] The connection method of this embodiment is basically the same as that of embodiment 1, except that the two airflow exchange ports 210 are tilted in opposite directions. When the free-flowing water in the roadbed has flowed away, the utility model can accelerate the drying speed inside the slope. Figure 5 As shown, when the wind blows along the slope, it will promote the air in the windward airflow exchange port, forcing the air to enter the pipe body 100 from the windward airflow exchange port; at the same time, the wind blows through the leeward airflow exchange port, accelerating the air flow speed at the airflow exchange port. According to the Bernoulli principle, the air pressure at the airflow exchange port decreases, forcing the air in the pipe body 100 to flow out. Therefore, under the action of the two airflow exchange ports, the air in the pipe body 100 flows, thereby accelerating the evaporation of water in the soil near the water seepage hole 111 and taking away the water vapor; when part of the soil is dry, the water will move towards the dry soil under the capillary action, thereby driving the drying of a larger range of soil.

[0036] Example 4

[0037] The connection method of this embodiment is basically the same as that of embodiment 1, except that the inclination angle of the guard plate 200 is the same as the inclination angle of the earth roadbed slope. Figure 4 As shown, the pipe body 100 can be slightly inclined, and the inclination angle of the guard plate 200 is the same as the inclination angle of the slope, so that the guard plate 200 can be closely attached to the earth roadbed slope.

[0038] Example 5

[0039] The connection method of this embodiment is basically the same as that of the first embodiment, except that a fixing rod 220 is further provided on the guard plate 200, and the fixing rod 220 can be inserted into the earth roadbed slope. Figure 6As shown in the figure, in order to fix the guard plate 200 on the slope of the soil subgrade, a fixing rod 220 is also provided on the guard plate 200, and the fixing rod 220 is inserted into the slope of the soil subgrade. In order to prevent rainwater from flowing back during rainfall, an inclined section 130 is also provided on the pipe body 100, so that the opening direction of the pipe body 100 close to the guard plate 200 is inclined downward. Considering the expansion and contraction of the clay volume, a flexible pipe section 140 is also provided on the pipe body 100. On the one hand, it is used to buffer the deformation of the subgrade, prevent this design from being damaged due to the expansion and contraction of the subgrade or generating relative displacement with the subgrade, and on the other hand, it adjusts the inclination angle of the guard plate 200 so that it can closely adhere to the slopes of soil subgrades with different inclination angles.

[0040] The fixing rod 220 can be fixedly connected to the guard plate 200 or can be detachably connected. For example, the guard plate 200 is fixed on the slope through a bolt, so that the guard plate 200 has the ability to retain soil.

[0041] For the convenience of installation, the flexible pipe section 140 can also be set as a flexible pipe with a telescopic function (refer to the washing machine drain pipe, the position where it is usually bent, etc.).

[0042] Embodiment 6

[0043] The connection method of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1. The difference is that for the convenience of installation, the connection method between the guard plate (200) and the pipe body (100) is a detachable connection. The connection methods include but are not limited to snap connection, threaded connection, rivet connection, etc.

[0044] Embodiment 7

[0045] The connection method of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1. The difference is that in order to prevent foreign objects from entering the pipe cavity, a filter screen can be provided at the air exchange port 210, and for the convenience of cleaning the pipe cavity, this filter screen can be detachably arranged.

[0046] Embodiment 8

[0047] The connection method of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1. The difference is that the water seepage holes 111 can also be set as capillary water seepage holes, so as to prevent the soil from being washed away by the water flow from the water seepage holes 111.

[0048] Embodiment 9

[0049] The connection method of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2. The difference is that two or more pipe cavities of the pipe body 100 are connected within the pipe body 100 or at the bending end 300, and air can enter from one air exchange port 210 and discharge from the other air exchange port 210.

[0050] Embodiment 10

[0051] The connection method in this embodiment is basically the same as that in Embodiment 2. The difference lies in that a curved exchange port transition section 121 and a curved end transition section 122 are also provided at the connection of the pipe body 100, the guard plate 200, and the curved end 300. The curved end 300 is preferably designed in a T shape, and the stress of this shape is relatively balanced, and it can also play a role similar to that of an anchor rod. In addition, the curved end 300 can also be other shapes, such as a "Z" shape, etc.

[0052] The length of the pipe body 100 can be set according to the actual situation such as slope construction conditions and pipe diameter size. In order to facilitate the adjustment of the length of the pipe body 100, the pipe body 100 and the curved end 300 can be detachably connected, and the connection methods include but are not limited to snap connection, threaded connection, rivet connection, etc.

[0053] The present utility model provides a drying device for an expansive soil subgrade. For the water infiltrating into the subgrade, two parallel communication pipes are designed, and a plurality of water seepage holes are provided on the pipes. In addition to playing the role of passive drainage through the drain pipes, the present utility model drives the air flow in the pipes through natural air convection, thereby accelerating the evaporation of the moisture in the water seepage holes to achieve the technical purpose of accelerating the drying of the soil. Compared with the prior art, it can also utilize the wind energy to accelerate the drying speed inside the subgrade. The present utility model solves the problem that the prior art cannot accelerate the drying inside the subgrade, resulting in a large amount of moisture staying in the subgrade for a long time, and reduces the risks such as slope collapse.
