Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water conservancy project monitoring, in particular to a repairable pressure measuring tube. Background Art
[0002] Piezometers are commonly used in seepage monitoring. Placed in a pressure well, they measure the seepage pressure in the area using the height of the water column in the tube. They are often used to monitor groundwater levels, dam infiltration lines, dam foundation uplift pressure, and seepage around dams. Existing piezometers consist of a conduit section and a permeable section, with a geotextile wrapped around the permeable section to filter soil and drain water.
[0003] Over time, the geotextile fabric outside the permeable section will inevitably become damaged and aged, reducing the piezometric tube's ability to filter silt and impurities, further affecting the accuracy of the monitoring data. To restore the permeable section's filtration capacity, the traditional method is to hydraulically flush the permeable section, thereby unclogging the seepage holes outside the permeable section through water pressure.
[0004] However, since the outer geotextile has been damaged and buried in the soil layer and is difficult to repair, soil particles will re-enter from the seepage holes in a short period of time after hydraulic flushing, thereby blocking the pressure measuring tube again, making it impossible to fundamentally restore its function.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.
[0039] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0040] Example:
[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present application discloses a repairable pressure measuring tube for monitoring seepage pressure, and its specific structure includes: a tube body 1, a sealing plate 2, a repair layer 3, an outer filter layer 4 and an air guide tube 5.
[0042] The pipe body 1 is vertically arranged and includes a pipe section 11 and a permeable section 12. The permeable section 12 is provided with a plurality of seepage holes 12a on its periphery. The pipe body 1 is preferably cylindrical for ease of installation, but is not limited thereto. It can also be a regular quadrangular prism, a regular triangular prism, or a regular hexagonal prism, etc., without specific limitation. During installation, the top of the pipe body 1 should be above the ground and equipped with a pipe mouth protection device to prevent rainwater ingress and vandalism. The seepage holes 12a are evenly distributed in a matrix to improve detection accuracy and ensure structural strength. They are preferably circular, but can also be triangular, square, or other shapes, without limitation.
[0043] Specifically, the pipe body section 11 is a plastic pipe, and the water-permeable section 12 is a stainless steel pipe, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the water-permeable section 12 and reducing the overall weight, thereby improving the use effect.
[0044] The sealing plate 2 is provided at the bottom end of the permeable section 12 and is used to seal the bottom opening of the pipe body 1. Its shape and size are preferably adapted to the bottom end of the pipe body 1 to improve the structural regularity, and is preferably connected by welding for a firm connection.
[0045] The repair layer 3 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the water-permeable section 12 and includes an exhaust belt 31 and sealing strips 32 provided at the upper and lower ends of the exhaust belt 31 .
[0046] The outer filter layer 4 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the repair layer 3 and is used to filter the water body to prevent soil particles around the pipe body 1 from entering the interior of the pipe body 1.
[0047] One end of the air guide pipe 5 is in communication with the exhaust belt 31 for pumping air into the exhaust belt 31 .
[0048] The above technical solution is used as follows:
[0049] When the pressure measuring tube is in use, the water in the soil penetrates into the pressure measuring well, and then undergoes preliminary filtration through the filter material, and then undergoes secondary filtration through the outer filter layer 4 and the repair layer 3, and then enters the pipe body 1 through the multiple seepage holes 12a on the permeable section 12 until it reaches the same level as the water level in the soil.
[0050] When the surface of the outer filter layer 4 is clogged, the other end of the air guide tube 5 is connected to the pressure pump arranged outside the pressure measuring well, so that air can be pumped into the exhaust belt 31. Since the upper and lower ends of the exhaust belt 31 are closed by the sealing strips 32, the mud and sand clogged on the surface of the exhaust belt 31 will be blown away, so that the pressure measuring tube can quickly resume its monitoring function.
[0051] The present application pumps air into the repair layer 3 through the air guide pipe 5, which can blow away the mud and sand blocking the outside of the exhaust belt 31, thereby completing the repair of the pressure measuring tube simply and efficiently. It is easy to operate and has a good repair effect, thereby greatly extending the service life and overcoming the problem of increased labor, time and material costs caused by redoing the hole.
[0052] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it also includes: an inner filter layer 6, which is arranged between the repair layer 3 and the permeable section 12 and is used for filtering again, thereby improving the filtering effect.
[0053] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the outer filter layer 4 and the inner filter layer 6 are geotextiles or wire mesh; the wire mesh is 180 mesh, has good filtering effect, low material cost, and is not easy to damage.
[0054] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the permeable section 12 includes an open area 121 and a sedimentation area 122 from top to bottom; the seepage holes 12a are opened on the periphery of the open area 121, and its area opening rate is about 10% to 20%, and the repair layer 3 is wrapped around the periphery of the open area 121, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure.
[0055] For example, the length of the opening area 121 is 1.5 m, and the length of the precipitation area 122 is 0.5 m, which are of moderate length and convenient for practical application.
[0056] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 As shown, the bottom end of the pipe body section 11 and the top end of the water permeable section 12 are threadedly connected. Specifically, the outer periphery of the bottom end of the pipe body section 11 is provided with an external thread, and the inner periphery of the top end of the water permeable section 12 is provided with an internal thread, and the internal and external threads are engaged with each other.
[0057] Through the above arrangement, the pipe body section 11 and the water-permeable section 12 can be conveniently and stably connected, the connection is stable, the assembly is convenient and the structure is regular, thus ensuring the use effect.
[0058] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a through hole 111 is opened on the outer periphery of the bottom end of the tube section 11 , and the other end of the air guide tube 5 passes through the through hole 111 into the interior of the tube section 11 and extends upward from the top opening of the tube section 11 .
[0059] By providing the through hole 111 , the air guide pipe 5 is delivered to the ground from the inside of the pipe body 1 , thereby reducing the probability of accidental damage and improving durability and service life.
[0060] In some embodiments, the sealing strip 32 is a geomembrane, which is a geotechnical anti-seepage material made of a plastic film as an anti-seepage base material and a composite of a non-woven fabric; it has the advantages of low specific gravity, strong extensibility, high adaptability to deformation, and good corrosion resistance, low temperature resistance and anti-freeze performance.
[0061] For example, plastic films mainly include polymer chemical flexible materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE) and ethylene / vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA).
[0062] In some embodiments, the exhaust belt 31 includes a core belt and filter membranes covering both sides of the core belt in the thickness direction; the core belt is extruded from polyethylene or polypropylene, plays a supporting role, and is used to transport gas, thereby blowing away the mud and sand blocking the surface of the filter membrane in reverse.
[0063] Based on the above embodiment, the cross-section of the core belt is a harmonica-shaped structure, which is used to form longitudinal grooves for gas circulation, significantly improving the gas transmission efficiency and can achieve the best effect under various complex geological conditions. However, it is not limited to this and can also be battlement-shaped, wavy or other shapes without specific limitation.
[0064] In the specification of the present invention, a large number of specific details are described. However, it is understood that the embodiments of the present invention can be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, well-known methods, structures and techniques are not shown in detail so as not to obscure the understanding of this specification.

Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner. In addition, those skilled in the art can combine and combine different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of different embodiments or examples without contradiction.
