[0013] The utility model discloses a cathodic protection test pile with anticorrosive shell, like Figure 1 And Figure 2 Shown, including plastic pile base 1, plastic pile base 1 is installed with steel pipe test pile 2, plastic pile base 1 is buried below ground, steel pipe test pile 2 is located above ground, the stability of plastic pile base 1 whole is superior to steel pipe test pile 2, can effectively resist the influence of the moisture, inorganic salt and other corrosive substances in the soil, guarantee the strength of plastic pile base 1 buried in the earth, avoid the damage phenomenon such as the inclination of cathodic protection test pile, cannot play normal test function.
[0014] The inner chamber of steel pipe test pile 2 is installed with terminal board 3, the inner side of terminal board 3 is used to connect the cathodic protection wire guided from underground, and the outer side of terminal board 3 can be used to connect corresponding test equipment to detect whether the cathodic protection device of the whole pipeline is effective. In order to protect terminal board 3 in steel pipe test pile 2, only when testing is allowed to contact with the external environment, a rotatable plastic access door 4 is arranged on the outer surface of steel pipe test pile 2 corresponding to the position of terminal board 3, one side of plastic access door 4 is hingedly installed on steel pipe test pile 2 through hinge 5, and the other side of plastic access door 4 is provided with turn tongue lock 6, and turn tongue lock 6 can close and lock plastic access door 4 on steel pipe test pile 2.

[0016] Further, in order to realize the dismounting connection between plastic pile base 1 and steel pipe test pile 2, plastic pile base 1 and steel pipe test pile 2 are replaced and maintained as unit components, so as to improve the installation application range of test pile, like Figure 3As shown, the outer periphery of the bottom of the steel pipe test pile 2 is provided with a limiting protrusion 7, and a connecting buckle cover 8 is matched and installed on the outer periphery of the upper side of the limiting protrusion 7. The connecting buckle cover 8 is provided with an inner thread, and the outer periphery of the upper part of the plastic pile base 1 is provided with an outer thread matched with the inner thread. Rotating the connecting buckle cover 8 can press the limiting protrusion 7 tightly on the plastic pile base 1, so as to realize the detachable connection of the steel pipe test pile 2 on the plastic pile base 1.
[0017] Further, in order to ensure the close connection between the connecting buckle cover 8 and the steel pipe test pile 2, the inner periphery of the connecting buckle cover 8 is provided with a sealing ring 9, which is located between the connecting buckle cover 8 and the steel pipe test pile 2. The sealing ring 9 can effectively prevent the infiltration of moisture and corrosive substances, and the connecting buckle cover 8 can be made of plastic material, which further improves its corrosion resistance in the external environment. The top surface of the connecting buckle cover 8 is a first inclined surface 10 inclined downward, which can effectively avoid the accumulation of rainwater or snow on the top under the action of gravity, thereby slowing down the corrosion of the test pile and improving the service life of the test pile.
[0018] The plastic access door 4 is a mechanism that can be opened and closed by rotating, and there is a gap between the steel pipe test pile 2. In order to maximize the corrosion of corrosive substances in the external environment such as rainwater and dust into the steel pipe test pile 2 through the gap during the non-test process, the interface board 3 and the wire are eroded, a shade 11 is installed on the steel pipe test pile 2 on the upper side of the plastic access door 4, and a sealing rubber strip 12 is arranged on each edge of the plastic access door 4. The sealing rubber strip 12 can effectively seal the gap between the plastic access door 4 and the steel pipe test pile 2, and the shade 11 can provide corresponding shading effect when the plastic access door 4 is in the open state, so as to prevent corrosive substances such as rainwater from entering the steel pipe test pile 2 during the test process to damage the interface board 3 or the wire, so that the overall corrosion resistance of the device is significantly improved, thereby ensuring normal cathodic protection test operation.
[0019] Further, in order to provide an orderly arrangement space for the wires in the steel pipe test pile 2, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , a wire arranging bracket 13 is installed in the inner cavity of the steel pipe test pile 2, and the wire arranging bracket 13 is located on the lower side of the interface board 3. A through hole is formed in the wire arranging bracket 13, and the through hole is vertically formed. A rubber sleeve 14 is matched and installed in the through hole, and the rubber sleeve 14 is used for inserting and positioning the wire. The upper end of the rubber sleeve 14 extending out of the wire arranging bracket 13 is provided with a limiting ring 15, and the diameter of the limiting ring 15 is greater than the diameter of the through hole, so that the rubber sleeve 14 is positioned and matched in the through hole to prevent the rubber sleeve 14 from being separated from the wire arranging bracket 13.
[0020] The rubber sleeve 14 is further provided with an axial wire inlet groove 16 on the outer circumferential surface, and the wire connected with the terminal plate 3 can enter the inner cavity of the rubber sleeve 14 through the wire inlet groove 16. The inner cavity wall of the rubber sleeve 14 is provided with a plurality of wire clamping plates 17 inclined upward and gathered, which can limit the downward movement of the wire in the rubber sleeve 14 and ensure the normal connection of the upper end of the wire with the terminal plate 3.
[0021] When the wire needs to be inserted, first, the wire is inserted upward through the through hole of the wire arranging bracket 13, at this time, the rubber sleeve 14 has not entered the through hole, then the upper end of the wire is connected with the terminal plate 3, and subsequently the wire is loaded into the rubber sleeve 14 through the wire inlet groove 16, and the rubber sleeve 14 moves downward along the wire until it enters the through hole of the wire arranging bracket 13, and the installation is completed.
[0022] Due to the arrangement of the wire clamping plates 17 inside the rubber sleeve 14, the downward movement of the wire is limited, and the wire will not be separated from the terminal plate 3 under the action of gravity. The wire clamping plates 17 are arranged in a direction that facilitates the upward movement of the wire along the rubber sleeve 14, and the downward movement of the wire along the rubber sleeve 14 will generate great resistance. The arrangement of the wire inlet groove 16 facilitates the above installation operation, and the wire can be easily inserted into the rubber sleeve 14 through the wire inlet groove 16. Subsequently, the wire can also play a guiding role, so that the rubber sleeve 14 can smoothly enter the through hole of the wire arranging bracket 13 to complete the installation. The rubber sleeve 14 entering the through hole is in a closed state under the action of its own elasticity.
[0023] The combination of the wire arranging bracket 13 and the rubber sleeve 14 not only provides an orderly arrangement space for the wire, but also limits the downward movement of the wire through the wire clamping plates 17, avoiding the confusion and damage of the wire inside the test pile. The design of the wire inlet groove 16 makes it easy for the wire to enter the inner cavity of the rubber sleeve, facilitating connection and fixation.
[0024] Further, in order to facilitate the drainage of condensed water or rainwater accumulated in the steel pipe test pile 2 and maximize the reduction of the erosion of the test pile body by condensed water, the wire arranging bracket 13 is arranged in the inner cavity of the steel pipe test pile 2. The top of the wire arranging bracket 13 is a second inclined surface 18 inclined downward. Corresponding to the position of the second inclined surface 18, a downward inclined drainage hole 19 is formed in the pipe wall of the steel pipe test pile 2. Due to the blocking effect of the wire arranging bracket 13, the condensed water in the steel pipe test pile 2 will accumulate at the upper position of the wire arranging bracket 13. Under the action of gravity and the guiding action of the second inclined surface 18, the condensed water will be drained out of the steel pipe test pile 2 through the drainage hole 19. The downward inclined drainage hole 19 can maximize the prevention of the entry of external rainwater, thereby significantly improving the corrosion resistance of the overall test pile.
