Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of test tools for foundation engineering, and more specifically, the utility model relates to a pile head lock for single-pile vertical uplift static load test. Background Art

[0002] The static load test is currently recognized as the most direct and reliable test method for detecting the vertical compressive (tensile) bearing capacity of foundation piles. For most of the existing single-pile vertical uplift static load test devices, the steel bars on the test pile are connected to the reaction platform. Since the steel bars on the test pile do not have threads, they cannot be directly fixed to the reaction platform through nuts. It is necessary to first roll the thread head at one end of the steel bar using a threading machine or fix the steel bar to the reaction platform by welding. The above two methods are time-consuming and laborious, greatly limiting the efficiency of the single-pile vertical uplift static load test.

[0003] In this regard, the prior art discloses a single-pile vertical uplift static load test device (publication number CN207392272U), in which the upper end of the clamping rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the opening of the support platform, the lower end of the clamping rod is connected to the clamping plate, and the vertical pull rod is rotatably connected to the middle of the clamping rod. When the pull rod is vertically lifted, the clamping plate on the clamping rod can be driven to approach the test pile to achieve clamping and fixing. However, since the pull rods on each clamping rod are lifted synchronously and the lifted height is the same, the distance that the clamping plate moves towards the test pile is the same. If the distances between the multiple clamping plates around the test pile and the test pile are different when installing the test device, the clamping plate with a small distance has already contacted and pressed against the test pile, while the clamping plate with a large distance has not contacted the test pile, resulting in uneven force on the test pile and even bending the test pile, affecting the effect of the static load test. And in the actual construction process, it is very difficult to make the distances between the multiple hanging clamping plates around the test pile and the test pile equal.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to solve the above defects and problems of the prior art to facilitate the use of the single-pile vertical uplift static load test. Summary of the Utility Model

[0033] As Figure 1-2 shown, the present utility model discloses a pile head lock for a single-pile vertical uplift static load test, which includes:

[0034] The lock housing 1, which is a box or barrel body with openings at both the upper and lower ends;

[0035] A plurality of upper clamps 10, which are evenly distributed circumferentially at the same height on the inner side wall of the lock housing 1; one end of each upper clamp 10 is hinged to the inner side wall of the lock housing 1, and the upper clamp 10 has a preset length. When the pile head lock moves downward to sleeved the pile head of the foundation pile, the other ends of the plurality of upper clamps 10 simultaneously touch the outer wall of the foundation pile and swing upward to form an upward inclined support for the foundation pile;

[0036] Multiple lower clamps 15 are located below the multiple upper clamps 10 and are evenly distributed around the wall of the lock housing 1 at the same height. Each lower clamp 15 is horizontally inserted into the wall of the lock housing 1 and is threadedly connected to the wall of the lock housing 1, so that one end of the lower clamp 15 can be close to the outer wall of the pile to form a horizontal support, and away from the outer wall of the pile to facilitate the pile head lock to be sleeved on the pile.

[0037] Multiple pairs of lifting rings 3 are evenly distributed on the top of the lock housing 1, and are used to connect the reaction platform or reaction beam to provide lifting force to the pile head lock and the foundation pile head. In actual application, it is better to set two or four pairs of lifting rings 3. Figure 2 There are two pairs of lifting rings 3 shown in the figure, each pair of lifting rings 3 consists of two lifting rings 3, and there are four lifting rings 3 in total in the two pairs of lifting rings 3, which are evenly distributed on the four corners of the square lock housing 1. Each pair of lifting rings 3 is connected to a steel strand 17, and the reaction platform or reaction beam is passed through the steel strand 17 of each pair of lifting rings 3, and prestressing is performed. At the same time, the length of each steel strand 17 is adjusted to reach the prestressed state, and then fastened to the reaction platform or reaction beam, and then continued to pull, so that the foundation pile is better clamped and pulled, thereby improving the effect of the single pile vertical pull-out static load test.

[0038] The implementation process of the present invention is to set an upper clamp 10 with an upward oblique support and a lower clamp 15 with a horizontal support on the inner side wall of the lock shell 1 with upper and lower openings. When a vertical pull-out static load test of a single pile is required, the soil layer around the upper part of a test pile 2 (also called an engineering foundation pile) is dug and leveled to expose the pile head. Then, the pile head lock of the present invention is put on the exposed pile head of the engineering foundation pile. Since one end of the upper clamp 10 is hinged to the inner side wall of the lock shell 1 and has a preset length, the other ends of multiple upper clamps 10 simultaneously touch the outer wall of the engineering foundation pile and swing upward, so that the multiple upper clamps 10 form an upward oblique support around the circumference of the engineering foundation pile. Multiple lower clamps 15 are horizontally inserted into the wall of the lock shell 1 and are threadedly connected to the wall of the lock shell 1. Before the pile head lock is moved down to be put on the pile head, one end of the multiple lower clamps 15 is first moved away from the outer wall of the pile to facilitate the pile head lock to be put on the pile. After the pile head lock is lowered and installed on the pile head (the pile head is basically located in the middle of the pile head lock, and the other ends of the multiple upper clamps 10 touch the outer wall of the pile at the same time), and it is placed stably on the ground at the pile head, one end of the multiple lower clamps 15 is then pressed against the outer wall of the pile to form a horizontal support, so that the pile can be better clamped and lifted, providing a basis for obtaining uniform and stable force for the subsequent vertical pull-out static load test of the pile.

[0039] The pile head lock designed by the present invention can facilitate multiple upper clamps 10 and multiple lower clamps 15 to press against the outer wall of the foundation pile at the same time, providing a better clamping and lifting effect on the foundation pile, and the pile head lock and the pile head are installed more conveniently and quickly using a sleeve installation method, thereby improving the efficiency of the single pile vertical pull-out static load test.

[0041] On the basis of the above-mentioned implementation form, when the other ends of the multiple upper clamps 10 do not contact the pile foundation, the multiple upper clamps 10 remain in a horizontal state, and the diameter of the circle formed by the other ends of the multiple upper clamps 10 in the lock housing 1 is smaller than the diameter of the pile head of the pile foundation. When the pile head lock is lowered, the pile foundation is aligned with the formed circle, which is conducive to controlling the pile foundation head to be in the middle of the pile head lock.

The bottom plate of the support base 8 is horizontally arranged so that the support rod 7 can remain horizontal in the free state;

[0044] The other end of the support rod 7 is connected to the first locking nail seat 5, and the first locking nail seat 5 is rotatably connected to the support rod 7 through the first locking nail seat shaft 6. The distal end of the first locking nail seat 5 is connected to one surface of the first locking nail plate 16, and the other surface of the first locking nail plate 16 is provided with a first locking nail 4. The first locking nail 4 is used to gradually tighten the foundation pile by friction with the surface of the foundation pile body.

[0047] The other side of the second locking pin seat 13 is an arcuate surface adapted to the outer wall of the pile foundation. The second locking pin 14 is mounted on the arcuate surface. The second locking pin 14 is used to enhance the frictional locking effect on the surface of the pile foundation. The bolt head 12 of the locking pin bolt 11 is typically a hexagonal head to facilitate the control of the rotation operation.

[0048] On the basis of the above implementation, the lock housing 1 is a square box or a round barrel with upper and lower openings.

[0049] On the basis of the above implementation, another implementation is as follows: the lock housing 1 is a square box with upper and lower openings, four upper clamps 10 are provided, and four lower clamps 15 are provided. The lower clamps 15 are located directly below the upper clamps 10 ( Figure 2 The lower clamp 15 is basically blocked by the upper clamp 10, so Figure 2 The lower clamp 15 is not shown in the figure, and the four upper clamps 10 are respectively arranged on the four corners of the square box to improve the connection strength.
