Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mud treatment technology, and in particular to a folding mud box. Background Technology

[0002] Mud plays a crucial role in foundation engineering construction, serving functions such as slag carrying, wall protection, and lubrication. Its performance significantly impacts project quality. During construction, mud pits are necessary for mud treatment and storage. Currently, common methods include brick-built pits or steel-framed pits after excavation. Brick-built mud pits require excavation and construction, are cumbersome, and have fixed locations. Steel-framed pits, on the other hand, occupy a large area, are heavy, and incur high transportation and storage costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the problems existing in related technologies, this utility model provides a foldable mud box that can be folded, and features simple installation, convenient operation, and low construction difficulty, eliminating the need to set up a mud pit on site.

[0004] This utility model provides a folding mud tank, including two connected cylindrical components and an inner container disposed within the cylindrical components. The cylindrical components include multiple splicing frames, which are sequentially spliced ​​end to end by hinges to form a closed ring. The two inner containers are provided with interconnected overflow holes. The upper part of the side wall of the inner container is provided with a mud inlet hole, and the lower part of the side wall of the inner container is provided with a mud outlet hole.

[0005] In some implementations, the ring is a polygon.

[0006] In some implementations, the polygon is a regular hexagon.

[0007] In some embodiments, the splicing frame is further provided with a number of crisscrossing reinforcing ribs.

[0008] In some embodiments, the inner container is made of PVC waterproof trowel-coated fabric.

[0009] In some embodiments, the hinge is a spring hinge.

[0010] In some embodiments, the spring hinge is detachably mounted on the splicing frame.

[0011] In some embodiments, two steel cables are also included, which are located at the bottom of the two columnar members. The two columnar members are provided with mounting ears on their outer sides, and the two steel cables are connected to each other after passing through the mounting ears.

[0012] The technical solution provided by this utility model can include the following beneficial effects:

[0013] When applying the technical solution of this utility model, the columnar component can be unfolded by pulling the splicing frame outward. The columnar component serves as the supporting structure for the inner container, and the inner container housed within the columnar component serves as a sedimentation tank and a slurry storage tank, respectively. The circulating mud generated during foundation construction can be pumped into the sedimentation tank through external equipment. The sediments (such as sand and gravel) of the circulating mud naturally settle at the bottom of the sedimentation tank, and the mud flows into the slurry storage tank through the overflow hole and re-enters the foundation construction mud circulation, eliminating the need for on-site mud tank construction. Compared to mud storage facilities built directly with concrete or steel boxes, this foldable mud box has an integrated design for the sedimentation tank and slurry storage tank. It can be folded when not in use, can be repeatedly recycled, and features short assembly time, simple structure, and high stability, which can accelerate the construction progress.

[0024] Furthermore, in the description of this utility model, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present invention provides a folding mud box, including two connected cylindrical components 1 and an inner container 2 disposed within the cylindrical components 1. The cylindrical component 1 includes multiple splicing frames 10, which are sequentially spliced ​​end to end by hinges 11 to form a closed ring. The two inner containers 2 are provided with interconnected overflow holes 20. The upper part of the side wall of the inner container 2 is provided with a mud inlet hole 21, and the lower part of the side wall of the inner container 2 is provided with a mud discharge hole 22.

[0027] Specifically, multiple splicing frames 10 are connected end-to-end to form a ring-shaped cylindrical component 1. The cylindrical component 1 has a prism structure, and its shape can be selected as needed, such as hexagonal, regular hexagonal, quadrilateral, or regular square. To ensure the aesthetics of the folded mud box when folded and its portability for storage and transportation, in a preferred embodiment, the cylindrical component 1 has a regular prism structure. The splicing frame 10 can be made of metal. In some embodiments, the splicing frame 10 is a rectangular plate structure. In the upright state, hinges 11 are located on both sides of the splicing frame 10. The splicing frame 10 can be made of steel alloy, such as hollow square steel. Compared with the mud tanks made of brick and steel boxes in the prior art, the columnar component 1 composed of splicing frames 10 can be folded and unfolded through the hinges 11. When folded, the folded mud tank can be transported and stored as a whole. When unfolded, it can form a sedimentation tank and a slurry storage tank, eliminating the need to set up a mud tank on site, and has the characteristics of flexible use. Each splicing frame 10 in the columnar component 1 has multiple hinges 11 on both sides. The installation method of the hinges 11 can be selected as needed. For example, they can be directly fixed to the splicing frame 10 by welding. In some embodiments, to adapt to the actual needs of different construction sites, they can also be installed on the splicing frame 10 by bolt fixing. Different numbers of splicing frames 10 can be spliced ​​and installed in a detachable manner to ensure that the sedimentation tank and slurry storage tank can meet the construction requirements.

[0028] The splicing frames 10 are spliced ​​together by hinges 11 to form a chamber that can accommodate the inner container 2. The inner container 2 can be directly fixed to the upper side of the splicing frame 10. In some embodiments, to adapt to different columnar components 1, the inner container 2 is detachably fixed to the upper side of the splicing frame 10. The circulating mud generated during the foundation construction can be pumped into the sedimentation tank through external equipment. The sediment of the circulating mud (such as sand and gravel) naturally settles at the bottom of the sedimentation tank. The mud flows into the storage tank through the overflow hole 20 and re-enters the foundation construction mud circulation.

[0029] Furthermore, in order to improve the structural strength of the splicing frame 10 and ensure the stability of the inner container 2, the splicing frame 10 is also provided with a number of crisscrossing reinforcing ribs 12. These reinforcing ribs 12 can be welded together from hollow square steel. Under the premise of ensuring the structural strength of the splicing frame 10, the amount of raw materials used in the column component 1 can be reduced, making it lighter and easier for operators to fold or unfold.

[0030] In one feasible solution, to further improve the service life and maintainability of the inner liner 2, the inner liner 2 is made of PVC waterproof PVC cloth. The PVC waterproof PVC cloth is specially treated to have excellent waterproof performance, effectively preventing water penetration and protecting the covered object from moisture and water damage. It also has strong resistance to chemicals such as acids and alkalis, and can be widely used in different geological conditions with stable performance. After determining the dimensions of the sedimentation tank and slurry storage tank required at the current construction site, the column component 1 can be simply cut and processed in the factory. The processed PVC waterproof blade-coated cloth is cylindrical in shape, and corresponding slurry inlet holes 21, slurry outlet holes 22, and overflow holes 20 are opened on the PVC waterproof blade-coated cloth. The top of the inner wall of the column component 1 is provided with fixing points for fixing the inner liner container 2. The inner liner container 2 is provided with holes that match the fixing points. The processed inner liner container 2 can then be installed on the inner wall of the column component 1. Then, plastic tubes are inserted into the overflow holes 20 of the two inner liner containers 2. To ensure that the overflow holes 20 do not leak, a soft layer can also be set on the outer circumferential wall of the plastic tube. After the plastic tube is inserted into the overflow hole 20, the soft layer can play a sealing role and prevent the mud from seeping out.

[0031] In another feasible solution, to ensure the smoothness and portability of the column component 1 during the folding process, the aforementioned hinge 11 is a spring hinge. When the operator pulls the splicing frame 10 outward, the elastic force of the spring hinge can assist in unfolding the column component 1, thereby reducing the labor intensity of the operator.

[0032] Furthermore, based on the above-described specific embodiments, those skilled in the art can, according to the geology of the construction site, the amount of sand and gravel that the mud may carry during construction, and the amount of mud required for construction, use detachable spring hinges to connect different numbers of splicing frames 10 to form sedimentation tanks and mud tanks of different sizes, thereby meeting actual construction needs. That is to say, the two columnar components 1 can be the same size or different.

[0033] In another feasible solution, to improve the practicality and structural stability of the folding mud box during use, the folding mud box also includes two steel cables 3. The two steel cables 3 are located at the bottom of the two columnar members 1. The outer side of each of the two columnar members 1 is provided with mounting ears 13. The two steel cables 3 are connected to each other after passing through the mounting ears 13. After unfolding the columnar member 1, the two columnar members 1 can be fixed by the steel cables 3 to ensure that the columnar members 1 will not deform and to avoid the inner container 2 from shaking.

[0034] The working process of this folding mud box is as follows:

[0035] 1. At the foundation construction site, after leveling the ground, steel plates are laid as the working surface of the folding mud box.

[0036] 2. The folding mud box, in its folded state, is lifted by steel cable 3 and placed on a steel plate. Two operators then stretch and unfold the folding mud box from opposite directions. After the folding mud box unfolds to form two hexagonal prisms, the steel cable 3 is tightened and secured, thereby fixing the shape of the unfolded folding mud box.

[0037] 3. After the folding mud box is unfolded and the inner liner container 2 is installed, a sedimentation tank and a slurry storage tank are formed.

[0038] 4. During operation, first close the discharge hole 22. The circulating mud generated during foundation construction flows into the sedimentation tank through the inlet hole 21. The sand in the circulating mud slowly settles to the bottom of the sedimentation tank. The mud then flows from the sedimentation tank into the storage tank through the overflow hole 20. After the mud index is checked, the mud in the storage tank re-enters the foundation construction mud circulation.

[0039] 5. After use, open the slurry drain hole 22 to drain the slurry, rinse the inner container 2, remove the inner container 2 from the fixed point, and fold it properly. After taking out the inner container 2, pull the steel cable 3 upward and slowly lift the steel cable 3. As the steel cable 3 tightens, the folding is achieved.

[0040] Compared with existing technologies, the foldable mud tank provided by this utility model can be folded up for storage and transportation, occupying little space, and can be quickly opened for use, eliminating the need for on-site excavation, construction, or installation of steel tank walls, simplifying the process and improving construction efficiency. Furthermore, the inner container 2 is detachable and replaceable, and is made of PVC waterproof fabric, which has the advantages of high strength, good ductility, high flexibility, and a smooth surface. It is not easily damaged during operation, has good waterproof performance, does not suffer fatigue damage when folded, is easy to cut, can be reused multiple times, and the materials used are recyclable, achieving green construction.

[0041] The various embodiments of the present invention have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein is chosen to best explain the principles, practical application, or improvement of the technology in the market, or to enable others skilled in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
