Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of assembled caissons, in particular to a semi-mechanical connection structure for assembled caissons. Background Art

[0002] Traditional cast-in-place reinforced concrete construction involves numerous construction steps, a long construction period, and low economic benefits, while prefabricated reinforced concrete components have the advantages of a short construction period, low cost, and easy construction. With the rapid development of underground space construction, urban caissons are widely used in drainage tunnels, rail transit exhaust shafts, etc. In recent years, prefabricated and assembled caissons have become an option to solve the problems of traditional caisson construction. In existing technologies, the research and development of prefabricated and assembled caisson production processes ensures that the overall construction period will not be delayed due to steel frame welding and waiting for concrete strength during project construction. This can minimize the impact of construction on road traffic and residents' lives, and keep the construction site clean and orderly. However, in the existing technology, there is a problem that the cross-section of the entire raised part is small and it is easy to be damaged during transportation and installation; the elastic sealing gasket may affect the overall stability and there is a risk of water and soil leakage; a segment requires a combination of several pipe segments, and its longitudinal connection is prone to water seepage; the connection between the lower segment and the upper segment relies only on the weight of the upper segment and the tension of the wire rope, and there is a possibility of water seepage at the horizontal connection seam, and the integrity is not as good as that of a whole prefabricated pipe segment; therefore, there is an urgent need to improve the prefabricated and assembled caisson process to solve the above technical problems.

[0029] The top inner and outer sides of the blade foot 1 are provided with connecting steel plates 82, and the blade foot 1 is connected to the first layer prefabricated segment 2 through the connecting steel plates 82 and the tension bolts 12. The first layer prefabricated segment 2 and the second layer prefabricated segment 3 are fixed together by threaded steel rods 10, and the two adjacent second layer prefabricated segments 3 are also fixed together by threaded steel rods 10.

[0030] The first layer of prefabricated segments 2 and the second layer of prefabricated segments 3 each include a plurality of trapezoidal arc prefabricated segments, which are divided into regular trapezoidal arc prefabricated segments and inverted trapezoidal arc prefabricated segments.
