Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water conservancy and hydropower engineering, and particularly relates to a water seal pressing plate with optimized installation hole spacing. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the water conservancy and hydropower engineering, the water seal is a key component for realizing the water retaining function of the gate.

[0003] The existing water seal pressing plate lacks reasonable installation hole spacing optimization structure design and relies on human experience, and is prone to structural sealing failure and functional failure. Under high or super-high water head operating conditions, the water seal bears a huge water pressure, and in order to ensure effective sealing, the engineering puts forward higher requirements for the clamping, supporting and uniform bearing of the water seal pressing plate. The existing water seal pressing plate hole spacing design faces great engineering uncertainty.

[0004] The installation hole spacing of the existing water seal pressing plate is prone to over-dense phenomenon, which can easily cause a larger clamping force in the local area, leading to over-compression relaxation and plastic permanent deformation of the rubber water seal, inducing the decrease of the elasticity of the rubber water seal material and the loosening, and causing structural sealing failure and functional failure. At the same time, the over-dense installation hole spacing causes damage to the base material of the water seal pressing plate, thereby significantly increasing the bearing deformation of the pressing plate, and causing the local pressing plate to fail to meet the structural bearing performance requirements under high water head pressure environment.

[0005] The installation hole spacing of the existing water seal pressing plate is prone to over-dense phenomenon, which can easily cause a larger clamping force in the local area, leading to over-compression relaxation and plastic permanent deformation of the rubber water seal, inducing the decrease of the elasticity of the rubber water seal material and the loosening, and causing structural sealing failure and functional failure. At the same time, the over-dense installation hole spacing causes damage to the base material of the water seal pressing plate, thereby significantly increasing the bearing deformation of the pressing plate, and causing the local pressing plate to fail to meet the structural bearing performance requirements under high water head pressure environment.

[0006] The existing water seal pressing plate design causes excessive processing and frequent maintenance, resulting in a decrease in economic benefits. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0024] As shown in Figures 1-4 A water seal pressing plate with optimized mounting hole spacing, comprising a pressing plate 1, a water seal rubber 3, and a water seal gasket 5, a plurality of round holes are arranged between the pressing plate 1, the water seal rubber 3, and the water seal gasket 5, and are locked by bolts and nuts; the round holes on the pressing plate 1 are arranged in an array on both sides of the axis of the pressing plate 1, and the spacing between adjacent two round holes is 75-200 mm.

[0025] The spacing d between adjacent two round holes is 200 mm or 150 mm or 100 mm or 75 mm, as shown in Figure 2 and 4 When arranged in an interlaced arrangement, the spacing d between adjacent two round holes is the distance between the centers of the two closest round holes, and when arranged in a same-row multi-column arrangement, the spacing d between adjacent two round holes is the distance between the centers of the two round holes on both sides of the axis of the pressing plate 1.

[0027] When the area of the pressing plate is large, the round hole array is arranged in a same-row multi-column arrangement to uniformly disperse the stress on the bolts.

[0028] The minimum distance between the round holes on the pressing plate 1 and the edge of the pressing plate 1 is greater than 1.5-2 times the diameter of the bolt.

[0029] The pressing plate 1 is made of high-strength structural steel material.

Due to the close fit between the bolt head and the round hole structure of the pressing plate 1, the bolt 2, the pressing plate 1, and the water seal gasket 5 are completely integrated, and in the case of high water head and super-high water head, the water seal bearing and tear resistance are more effectively clamped and supported, ensuring the durability and reliability of the water seal operation.
