Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of open caisson construction, in particular to an automatic pressing-down management system for a pressed-in open caisson. Background Technique

[0002] An open caisson is a wellbore-shaped structure. It excavates soil inside the well and sinks to the designed elevation by relying on its own gravity to overcome the frictional resistance of the well wall, and then undergoes concrete bottom sealing and filling of the well holes to become the foundation of a bridge pier or other structures. Generally, it is used in the construction of large bridge pier foundations, sewage pumping stations, large equipment foundations, civil air defense shelters, shield assembly wells, and the construction of retaining devices for underground roads and stations and hydraulic foundations.

[0003] The choice of the open caisson sinking construction method depends on factors such as the size of the construction site, hydrogeological conditions, and the sensitivity of surrounding buildings. Under complex stratum conditions or in large open caisson projects, it is difficult to overcome the frictional resistance between the well wall and the soil and the resistance under the cutting edge only by relying on the self-weight of the open caisson. Therefore, sinking assistance measures need to be used to promote the sinking of the open caisson. Pressing weight for sinking is the most commonly used open caisson sinking assistance measure, but the sinking force provided by direct loading methods such as stacking loads and building the open caisson is limited. In actual open caisson projects, a reaction force system is often used to provide the acting force to promote the sinking of the open caisson. However, the current reaction force system for the pressed-in open caisson sinking generally requires a large construction site and has a greater adverse impact on the surrounding environment and buildings during the construction process; moreover, its structure is complex, the construction procedures of the open caisson change frequently, and it is difficult to be applicable to the situation of rapid and stable construction of large open caissons; in addition, in such reaction force systems, bearing brackets, precast piles, etc. are mostly used, which will generate additional acting forces on the open caisson wall and are not conducive to the force on the well wall. Furthermore, usually, the working state of the jack cannot be accurately controlled, and the problem of open caisson inclination may occur. Summary of the Invention
