Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of geocell technology, specifically to a geocell with annular closed nodes. Background Technology

[0002] Geocells are widely used in stabilizing highway and railway subgrades, load-bearing embankments and shallow river channel management, as well as preventing landslides and load-bearing mixed retaining walls. When encountering soft foundations, the use of geocells can greatly reduce the labor intensity of construction and reduce the thickness of the subgrade. They also have the characteristics of fast construction speed and good performance, which can greatly reduce the project cost.

[0003] Patent CN212772278U discloses a novel geocell, which is assembled by inserting several gaps through connectors. However, due to the gaps in the geocell, the support at the connection points is poor after unfolding, making the geocell prone to deformation under pressure. Furthermore, the method of locking the geocell by fasteners and connectors has poor stability, resulting in poor practicality of the geocell.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a geocell with strong support and stability at the connection points. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a geocell with a ring-shaped closed node, so as to at least solve the problem of poor support and stability at the connection of existing geocells.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A geocell with annular closed nodes includes several polymer sheets and a fixing component. The polymer sheets are connected to each other through the fixing component to form a three-dimensional mesh structure.

[0008] The polymer sheet is provided with a plurality of first connection ports and second connection ports arranged longitudinally, and the first connection ports and second connection ports are distributed alternately.

[0009] The fixing component is a ring-shaped closed structure, and the fixing component is interleaved in the first connection port and the second connection port of the adjacent polymer sheets.

[0010] Furthermore, both the first connection port and the second connection port are strip-shaped and are horizontally aligned along the longitudinal direction.

[0011] Furthermore, the fixing component includes a plug rod and a bracket, the plug rod having a U-shaped structure and the bracket having an inverted U-shaped structure, the plug rod and the bracket forming a closed annular structure.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of the insertion rod is a closed end and the other end is an open end, and the bracket is disposed at the open end of the insertion rod, so that the fixing assembly has a closed structure.

[0013] Furthermore, the inner walls on both sides of the insertion rod are provided with support members, each support member including several sets of support blocks and silicone pads. The support blocks are spaced apart on the inner walls on both sides of the insertion rod, and the silicone pads are located on the side of the support blocks away from the inner walls of the insertion rod.

[0014] Furthermore, the support blocks are staggered on the inner walls of both sides of the insertion rod, with adjacent support blocks being disposed on different inner walls and spaced support blocks being disposed on the same inner wall.

[0015] Furthermore, one end of the silicone pad is connected to the side of the support block away from the inner wall of the insertion rod, and the other end is tightly attached to the inner wall of the side opposite to the support block.

[0016] Furthermore, locking blocks are symmetrically arranged at the open end of the insertion rod.

[0017] Furthermore, the insert has a locking groove inside that matches the locking block.

[0018] Furthermore, the distance between the first connection port and the second connection port is the same as the distance between the support blocks.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] 1. This utility model provides a geocell with annular closed nodes. The fixed components of the annular closed structure are interlaced in the first and second connection ports of adjacent polymer sheets, which improves the support and stability of the geocell connection.

[0021] 2. In this utility model, the insert rods are interlaced between the first and second connection ports of the two polymer sheets, while the support block is placed in the first and second connection ports to support them. This improves the support at the connection of the polymer sheets, reduces the deformation of the geocell due to compression during use, and makes the geocell more practical.

[0022] 3. In this utility model, the insert frame and insert rod are fixed by engaging with the locking block through the locking groove. With the cooperation of the support block and the silicone pad, the insert rod can quickly retract and lock in the insert frame to form a ring-shaped closed structure, thereby fixing the connection of the polymer sheet. This makes the fixing of the geocell more convenient and faster. Furthermore, the cooperation of the support block and the silicone pad reduces the deformation of the insert rod, thereby improving the stability of the geocell and making it more practical.

[0036] Example:

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a geocell with annular closed nodes, including a plurality of polymer sheets 1. In this embodiment, the polymer sheet 1 is a polymer polyolefin sheet. In other embodiments, the polymer sheet 1 may also be a polymer polyester sheet. It also includes a fixing component. The plurality of polymer sheets 1 are connected by the fixing component to form a three-dimensional mesh cell structure.

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, the polymer sheet 1 is provided with several first connection ports 2 and second connection ports 3 arranged longitudinally. The first connection ports 2 and second connection ports 3 are both strip-shaped and are distributed at equal intervals to facilitate the fixing of the fixing components.

[0039] In this embodiment, both the first connection port 2 and the second connection port 3 are rectangular, of the same size, and horizontally aligned along the longitudinal direction.

[0040] The fixing components are a ring-shaped closed structure, and the fixing components are interspersed in the first connection port 2 and the second connection port 3 of the adjacent polymer sheets 1.

[0041] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the fixing component includes a plug rod 4 and a bracket 8. In this embodiment, the plug rod 4 has a U-shaped structure and the bracket 8 has an inverted U-shaped structure. The plug rod 4 and the bracket 8 form a closed annular structure. Both the plug rod 4 and the bracket 8 are made of plastic.

[0042] One end of the insertion rod 4 is a closed end and the other end is an open end. The bracket 8 is set at the open end of the insertion rod 4, so that the fixing component has a closed structure.

[0043] The insert rods 4 are interleaved and inserted into the first connection port 2 and the second connection port 3 of the two polymer sheets 1, which facilitates the connection of the two polymer sheets 1, thereby realizing the connection of the geocell and making the geocell more practical.

[0044] Among them, such as Figure 4 As shown, a support member is provided on the inner side of the insertion rod 4. The support member includes several sets of support blocks 5 and silicone pads 9. The support blocks 5 are horizontally arranged at equal intervals along the longitudinal direction on the inner wall of the insertion rod 4, and the silicone pads 9 are arranged on the side of the support blocks 5 away from the inner wall of the insertion rod 4.

[0045] Preferably, the support block 5 is a cuboid, and the support blocks 5 are staggered on the inner walls of both sides of the insertion rod 4. Adjacent support blocks 5 are respectively set on different inner walls, and spaced support blocks 5 are respectively set on the same inner wall.

[0046] In this embodiment, the cross-section of the silicone pad 9 is trapezoidal, with the lower base of the trapezoid connected to the side of the support block 5 away from the inner wall of the insertion rod 4, and the upper base of the trapezoid closely attached to the inner wall of the side opposite to the support block 5.

[0047] The distance between the first connection port 2 and the second connection port 3 is the same as the distance between the support blocks 5.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, the insert rods 4 are interlaced in the first connection port 2 and the second connection port 3 of the two polymer sheets 1. At the same time, the support block 5 is placed in the first connection port 2 and the second connection port 3 to support the first connection port 2 and the second connection port 3. This facilitates the improvement of the support at the connection of the polymer sheets 1, reduces the deformation of the geocell due to compression during use, and makes the geocell more practical.

[0049] like Figure 6As shown, two locking blocks 6 are symmetrically arranged at the open end of the insertion rod 4. The insertion frame 8 has a locking groove 7 that fits into the locking blocks 6. The insertion frame 8 and the insertion rod 4 are fixed by engaging with the locking blocks 6 through the locking groove 7. When the open end of the insertion rod 4 is squeezed and contracted, the silicone pad 9 is squeezed against the inner wall of the insertion rod 4, embedding the locking blocks 6 into the locking groove 7 of the insertion frame 8. The silicone pad 9 then recovers its deformation, achieving rapid locking between the insertion rod 4 and the insertion frame 8, forming a ring-shaped closed structure. This fixes the connection of the polymer sheet 1, making the fixation of the geocell more convenient and faster. Furthermore, the cooperation between the support block 5 and the silicone pad 9 reduces the deformation of the insertion rod 4, thereby improving the stability of the geocell and making it more practical.

[0050] The installation steps in this embodiment are as follows:

[0051] First, align the first connection port 2 and the second connection port 3 of the two sets of polymer sheets 1 respectively.

[0052] Next, insert the open end of the insertion rod 4 into the bottom of both sides of the two sets of polymer sheets 1, and gradually insert it upwards, so that the polymer sheet 1 passes between the silicone pad 9 and the inner wall of the insertion rod 4. Then, insert the two ends of the opening of the insertion rod 4 alternately between the first connection port 2 and the second connection port 3. Then, insert the polymer sheet 1 between the silicone pad 9 and the inner wall of the insertion rod 4 again, and repeat the cycle until the open end of the insertion rod 4 is inserted to the top of the two sets of polymer sheets 1.

[0053] Finally, place the insert 8 on one side of the open end of the insert rod 4, so that the locking block 6 engages with the locking groove 7, thereby fixing the insert 8 and the insert rod 4 to form a ring-shaped fixing structure.

[0054] The above-described specific examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention. Those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains can make various simple deductions, modifications, or substitutions based on the concept of this invention.
