Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Usually, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and illustrated herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0024] Accordingly, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] Embodiment 1:

[0026] This embodiment provides a pile head heating device, which includes a hot water bin 1 and a hot water source 2.

[0027] Among them, referring to Figure 1 , the hot water bin is arranged inside the pile head (the lower end of the hot melt pile 4) of the hot melt pile 4 to transfer the heat energy required to melt the frozen soil to the pile head of the hot melt pile 4.

[0028] The hot water source 2 is arranged outside the hot melt pile 4 and is used to supply hot water to the hot water bin 1 through a pipeline 3. Among them, the hot water source 2 includes a heating water tank 20 for heating water and a water pump 21 arranged on the pipeline 3; the heating water tank 20 can be an electric heating water tank or a water tank heated by fuel. The hot water tank 3 forms a circulation loop with the hot water bin 1 through the pipeline 3 to supply continuous hot water to the hot water bin 1. Among them, the transportation of hot water is driven by the water pump 21 arranged on the pipeline 3.

[0029] Referring to Figure 1 , the pipeline 3 extends from the top of the hot melt pile 4 into the hot melt pile and is connected to the hot water bin 1 on the lower side inside the pile, which is not easy to interfere with the pile driving operation of the hot melt pile.

[0030] Referring to Figure 2 , the pipeline 3 includes a water inlet pipe 30 and a water outlet pipe 31 connected to the inside of the hot water bin 1. Among them, a group of annular members 10 are arranged inside the hot water bin 1. The water inlet pipe 30 extends to the outside of one side of the annular member 10, and the water outlet pipe 31 extends to the outside of the other side of the annular member 10 opposite to the water inlet pipe 30. When the hot water enters and exits the hot water bin 1, it needs to flow around the arc-shaped outer wall of the annular member 10, increasing the flow area of the hot water in the hot water bin 1 and facilitating the uniform heating of the pile head.

[0031] In this embodiment, the annular member 10 is installed on the inner wall of the upper bottom end of the hot water bin 1, and the axis of the annular member 10 is coaxial with the axis of the hot melt pile 4; the water inlet pipe 30 and the water outlet pipe 31 penetrate downward along the top of the hot water bin 1 into the hot water bin 1; in addition, both the water inlet pipe 30 and the water outlet pipe 31 extend downward to the outside of the middle part of the annular member 10 in the axial direction, which is also convenient for the up and down flow intersection during the circular flow of hot water, making the hot water temperature uniform everywhere in the hot water bin 1.

[0032] Embodiment 2:

[0033] Referring toFigure 1 , this embodiment also provides a hot-melt pile 4, which has the pile head heating device as described above. Therefore, the hot-melt pile 4 is a steel pipe pile or a precast reinforced concrete pile.

[0034] Among them, when the hot-melt pile 4 is a steel pipe pile, the lower end of the hot-melt pile 4 has a steel conical part 40, and the hot water tank 1 is located inside the conical part 40; when the hot-melt pile 4 is a precast reinforced concrete pile, several circles of steel bars or steel plates are wrapped inside the pile head of the hot-melt pile 4 outside the hot water tank 1, which is beneficial to the heat conduction of the pile head.

[0035] In addition, in order to further improve the convenience of driving the hot-melt pile, referring to Figure 1 , in one embodiment, along the length direction of the hot-melt pile 4, several circles of threaded steel bars 42 are spirally arranged on the outer wall of the hot-melt pile 4. Among them, a chuck 41 is arranged at the top of the hot-melt pile 4 to clamp the hot-melt pile 4 and rotate it into the pile hole. The threaded steel bars 42 can clean the frozen soil on the inner wall of the pile hole, which is convenient for driving the pile, and can also trim the inner wall of the pile hole.

[0036] In order to facilitate the removal of the pipeline 3 from the pile after driving the pile, the lower end of the pipeline 3 and the top of the hot water tank 1 can be connected in a plug-and-play manner; in addition, in order to adapt to the rotary insertion of the hot-melt pile 4, in one embodiment, the pipeline 3 inside the pile and the pipeline 3 outside the pile can be connected through a movable joint at the top of the hot-melt pile 4.

[0037] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various changes and modifications. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
