Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water conservancy and hydropower engineering, in particular to a sealing structure between segments of a wind power concrete tower barrel. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the new energy industry, especially the wind power industry, has witnessed a blowout development. With the progress of technology, a precast assembled concrete tower barrel with dry connection without grouting has emerged. Different from traditional steel towers, it uses precast concrete segments as the basic components of the tower barrel. To ensure the compactness of the joints between segments, engineering structural adhesives are generally used for filling during construction. Due to the existence of installation errors and differences in the gluing level of workers, when the segments are assembled, the engineering structural adhesive is extruded and forms a sag on the outer surface of the tower barrel. On the one hand, these overflowing engineering structural adhesives seriously affect the appearance quality of the tower barrel. On the other hand, when exposed to the open air environment for a long time, they will weather and fail and peel off the barrel wall, making it easier for the interior to be eroded and weathered and fall off. In addition, gaps penetrating the wall thickness direction of the tower barrel are likely to appear in some areas at the joints between segments. In rainy weather, water seepage will occur, posing a risk of causing short circuits of electrical equipment at the tower bottom and corrosion of accessories inside the tower barrel. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to propose an effective joint sealing measure in the field of wind power concrete tower barrels. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art and provide a sealing structure between segments of a wind power concrete tower barrel, which can solve the problems that when the concrete tower barrel segments are spliced, the engineering structural adhesive overflows to the outer surface of the tower barrel to form a sag, affecting the appearance and quality of the tower barrel, and water seepage is likely to occur at the splicing part, resulting in water ingress into the equipment inside the tower barrel and corrosion of accessories.

The positional relationships described in the drawings are only for illustrative purposes and cannot be construed as a limitation on the present utility model.

[0027] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments, but it shall not be used as a basis for limiting the present utility model.

[0028] The concrete tower barrel segment 1 includes an outer surface, an inner surface, two circumferential sides and two vertical sides. Refer to the drawings. A sealing structure between concrete tower barrel segments of a wind power concrete tower barrel provided by the present utility model, wherein the concrete tower barrel section 10 is formed by circumferentially splicing a plurality of concrete tower barrel segments 1. An engineering structural adhesive 8 is provided between the splicing surfaces of adjacent concrete tower barrel segments 1. The sealing structure further includes a sealing strip 7. The sealing strip 7 is close to the outer surface of the concrete tower barrel segment 1. The engineering structural adhesive 8 is located inside the sealing strip 7 on the splicing surface. The sealing strip 7 can prevent the engineering structural adhesive 8 from overflowing to the outer surface of the concrete tower barrel segment 1 and prevent water from seeping from the outer surface of the concrete tower barrel segment 1 to the inside. The sealing strip 7 located on the outside and the engineering structural adhesive 8 located on the inside jointly undertake the sealing function.

[0029] A first groove 3 is provided on one of the circumferential sides of the concrete tower barrel segment 1, and a second groove 4 is provided on one of the vertical sides of the concrete tower barrel segment 1. Both the first groove 3 and the second groove 4 are close to the outer surface of the concrete tower barrel segment 1. The first grooves 3 of the same layer of the concrete tower barrel section 10 form an annular groove, and the sealing strip 7 is arranged in both the annular groove and the second groove 4.

[0030] The sealing strip 7 includes an inner structure and an outer structure. The inner structure is provided with a plurality of water-blocking structures. The outer structure includes a concave structure 74 and a convex structure 73. A plurality of compressible cavities 6 extending along the length direction of the sealing strip 7 are also arranged in the sealing strip 7.

[0031] Among the two adjacent splicing surfaces of the adjacent segment 1, one splicing surface of the concrete tower barrel segment 1 is provided with the first groove 3 or the second groove 4, and the other splicing surface of the concrete tower barrel segment 1 is a smooth splicing surface. The engineering structural adhesive 8 is applied between the two adjacent splicing surfaces of the adjacent concrete tower barrel segments 1.

[0032] The inner structure includes two upper and lower extrusion strips arranged along its length direction. The edge of the extrusion strip has a tip. The width of the first extrusion strip 71 on the upper side is greater than that of the second extrusion strip 72 on the lower side. The first extrusion strip 71 and the second extrusion strip 72 are both distributed on both sides of the sealing strip 7. The convex surface structure 73 faces the radial outside of the concrete tower barrel section 10, and the concave surface structure 74 faces the radial inside of the concrete tower barrel section 10. The first extrusion strip 71 and the second extrusion strip 72 are both in an extrusion state in the first groove 3 or in the second groove 4. The first extrusion strip 71 and the second extrusion strip 72 respectively form multiple water-blocking structures on the two side groove walls, which can prevent the liquid from the outside from infiltrating in layer by layer, so that the sealing strip 7 achieves a better sealing and moisture-proof effect. The orientations of the convex surface structure 73 and the concave surface structure 74 can determine the compression direction of the sealing strip 7, ensure that the sealing strip 7 compresses towards the engineering structural adhesive 8, prevent the engineering structural adhesive 8 from overflowing, and play a role in protecting and moisture-proofing the engineering structural adhesive 8.

[0033] The compressible cavity 6 includes a first cavity 61 located between the first extrusion strip 71 and the second extrusion strip 72 and a second cavity 62 located above the first extrusion strip. The second cavity 62 is located between the convex surface structure 73 and the concave surface structure 74, and the arc surface directions of the second cavity 62 are respectively consistent with the convex surface structure 73 and the concave surface structure 74. The compressible cavity 6 can enable the sealing strip 7 to have a larger outer contour size when the cross-sectional area is certain, and at the same time enable the sealing strip 7 to have a larger deformation margin, so as to ensure that when the sealing strip 7 is in a compressed state, the contact area between the sealing strip 7 and the first groove 3 or the second groove 4 is increased, thereby increasing the friction force between the sealing strip 7 and the first groove 3 and the second groove 4, and achieving a better sealing effect.

[0034] The surfaces of the sealing strip 7 that contact the bottom surfaces of the first groove 3 and the second groove 4 are rectangular surfaces, and the surface of the sealing strip 7 that contacts the smooth splicing surface of the concrete tower barrel segment 1 is the convex surface structure 73. The tips of the first extrusion strip 71 and the second extrusion strip 72 are in extrusion contact with the side surfaces of the first groove 3 or the side surfaces of the second groove 4. The height of the sealing strip 7 in its free state is greater than the thickness of the engineering structural adhesive 8, so as to ensure that during the splicing process of adjacent concrete tower barrel segments 1, the sealing strip 7 contacts the smooth splicing surface of the adjacent concrete tower barrel segments 1 prior to the engineering structural adhesive 8, so that the sealing strip 7 can intercept the overflow of the engineering structural adhesive 8 to the outer surface side of the concrete tower barrel segment 1.

[0035] A plurality of concrete tower barrel segments 1 on the same layer are circumferentially spliced to form a vertical joint 11, and the vertical joints of the adjacent two concrete tower barrel sections 10 are arranged in a staggered manner, so that the structure is more stable.

[0036] The cross-sections of the first groove 3 and the second groove 4 are both trapezoidal cross-sections with a large opening and a narrow bottom. The side with the larger opening of the trapezoidal cross-section faces outward. The trapezoidal cross-sections of the first groove 3 and the second groove 4 facilitate the demoulding operation after the concrete tower barrel segment 1 is poured and facilitate drainage.

[0037] The sealing strip 7 is a flexible rubber strip.

The engineering structural adhesive 8 is located between the sealing strip 7 and the inner surface of the concrete tower barrel segment 1, and there is no engineering structural adhesive 8 between the sealing strip 7 and the outer surface of the concrete tower barrel segment 1. Press the two circumferentially adjacent concrete tower barrel segments 1 tightly into a whole, and repeat the above steps until the cross-section formed after splicing a plurality of concrete tower barrel segments 1 forms a complete circle, constituting the concrete tower barrel section 10;

[0042] d. Insert the sealing strip 7 into the annular groove of the concrete tower barrel section 10 formed by the first groove 3;
