Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of load cells, and more particularly to a novel load cell. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the main methods for static load tests of pile foundations are the stacking method, the anchor pile method, and the self-balanced method. Among them, the self-balanced method is a method for detecting the bearing characteristics of pile foundations by embedding loading equipment in the pile.

[0003] The detection principle of the self-balanced method is to bury a special loading device - a load cell, together with the steel cage, at the corresponding position in the pile before concrete pouring. The pressure pipes of the load cell and other required test devices are led from the pile body to the ground, and then the pile is cast. A pressure pump applies pressure to the load cell on the ground, generating a loading force inside the pile body. By calculating and analyzing the relationship between the loading force and these parameters, we can not only obtain the bearing capacity of the pile foundation, but also obtain a series of data such as the side resistance coefficient of each soil layer, the side resistance of the pile, and the end bearing capacity of the pile. This method can be used to provide data basis for design and also for the inspection of the bearing capacity of engineering piles.

[0004] The currently used load cells have the following drawbacks: 1. The connection method with steel bars is mostly welding. Affected by the skills of welders and the welding environment, there are differences in welding strength, further affecting the connection strength between the load cell and the steel bars; 2. After the load cell is integrated with the pile foundation, the hydraulic fluid in its internal hydraulic device will gradually leak from the hydraulic device over time, affecting the strength of the entire pile foundation; 3. After the load cell is integrated with the pile foundation, there is sometimes a situation where the concrete pouring in the connection guard plate of the load cell is not in place, affecting the overall strength of the pile foundation. Therefore, the present invention provides a novel load cell. Summary of the Invention

[0025] Preferably, the liquid injection pipe 9 is composed of a liquid injection main pipe 902 and liquid injection branch pipes 901. There are three liquid injection branch pipes 901 in total. The tails of the liquid injection branch pipes 901 are respectively connected to three hydraulic devices 5, and the heads are combined and connected into the liquid injection main pipe 902.

[0029] Next, the application of the present invention will be elaborated in detail with reference to the Figures 1-3 description of the drawings:

[0030] First, for the self-assembly of the present invention, since the self-weight of the load cell is relatively large, it often needs to be used in cooperation with a hoisting device. Therefore, a lifting ring 17 is provided at the top of the upper panel 11 of the present invention. When self-assembling the present invention, it is necessary to align the hydraulic tank 15 and the connecting column 12 below the upper panel 11 with the hydraulic device 5 and the connecting rod 3 on the lower panel 1 respectively, insert the upper threaded fixing rod into the connecting through hole 16, and then fix the upper panel 11 and the lower part by screwing a nut onto the upper threaded fixing rod. At this time, the self-assembly of the present invention is completed.

[0031] Next is the assembly of the present invention with the pile foundation steel reinforcement cage. At this time, it is necessary to thread the connecting steel bars of the steel reinforcement cage in advance, and then screw the threaded steel bars into the steel bar connectors 13 at the top of the upper panel 11 and the bottom of the lower panel 1. The steel bars at other positions can be strengthened by welding or not welded. At this time, the assembly of the present invention and the pile foundation cage is completed, and then the debugging of the present invention is carried out. After the debugging is completed, the pipeline can be docked with the casing structure 14. When docking, three pipelines are respectively taken and connected to the liquid injection main pipe 902, the lead-out main pipe 102, and the grouting pipe 8. At this time, the final assembly before the pile foundation pouring of the present invention is completed.

[0032] Finally, the use of the present invention. When the present invention is used, different functions are implemented through three externally connected pipelines. The pipeline connected to the liquid injection main pipe 902 mainly provides hydraulic fluid for the hydraulic device 5. The pipeline connected to the lead-out main pipe 102 is mainly used to drain the hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic device 5 after the detection is completed. The pipeline connected to the grouting pipe 8 is mainly used to pour concrete slurry into the present invention (including: in the hydraulic device 5, in the connecting guard plate 4, and in the load box area enclosed by the connecting guard plate 4) after the detection is completed. When the detection of the present invention is completed, first, cement mortar is poured into the hydraulic device 5 through the pipeline connected to the hydraulic main pipe, and at the same time, the hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic device 5 is extracted through the pipeline connected to the lead-out main pipe 102. When the continuous cement mortar is extracted through the pipeline connected to the lead-out main pipe 102, it proves that the hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic device 5 is emptied. At this time, the grouting can be started through the pipeline connected to the grouting pipe 8 into the interior of the present invention. After the injected concrete slurry is formed, the present invention is integrated with the pile foundation pouring.
