[0051] Please see Figure 1The local large-scale underground hydrogen storage structure includes a storage body, a sealing structure 3, and a sealing device 4. The storage body is for underground installation and includes a concrete lining layer 1 and a concrete base slab 2. The concrete lining layer 1 has a cavity with openings at both the top and bottom. The concrete base slab 2 is located at the bottom of the concrete lining layer 1 to seal the lower end of the cavity. The sealing structure 3 is laid inside the cavity to seal it.

[0052] The underground large-scale hydrogen storage structure provided by this utility model includes a concrete lining layer 1 and a concrete base slab 2. The concrete lining layer 1 has a cavity with openings at both the top and bottom. The concrete base slab 2 is located at the bottom of the concrete lining layer 1 to seal the lower end of the cavity. A sealing structure 3 is laid inside the cavity to seal it. A sealing device 4 is located at the top of the concrete lining layer 1 and is sealed to the upper end of the cavity. The sealing device 4 and the storage body together enclose a hydrogen storage space. The sealing device 4 also has a gas filling and releasing channel 41 connecting the hydrogen storage space. The storage body made by the concrete lining layer 1 and the concrete base slab 2 can be pre-buried in various terrains regardless of topography to form a hydrogen storage tank. Since the hydrogen storage structure is located underground, it can take advantage of the relatively stable underground temperature, humidity and other environmental factors to achieve safe storage. At the same time, the surrounding rock and soil can provide natural protection, improving the safety and reliability of the hydrogen storage structure.
[0053] Further, please see Figures 1 to 3In this embodiment, the concrete lining layer 1 includes a plurality of cylindrical structures 11, which are sequentially connected in a vertical direction, and a connecting structure is provided between two adjacent cylindrical structures 11. The connecting structure includes a tenon and a mortise that cooperate with each other. The tenon is provided in the upper cylindrical structure 11 of the two cylindrical structures 11, and the mortise is provided in the lower cylindrical structure 11 of the two cylindrical structures 11. Specifically, the cylindrical structure 11 is generally annular, and multiple cylindrical structures 11 are sequentially spliced along the vertical direction to form the main structure of the concrete lining layer 1. Each cylindrical structure 11 has a tenon on its lower end face and a mortise on its upper end face. The tenon and the mortise are fitted together to limit the circumferential movement of the cylindrical structure 11 and prevent it from moving horizontally. Since the uppermost and lowermost cylindrical structures 11 do not require mortise and tenon fitting, the uppermost cylindrical structure 11 does not have a mortise, and the lowermost cylindrical structure 11 does not have a tenon.
[0054] Furthermore, an asphalt layer is laid inside the tenon groove, which enhances the overall structural integrity.
[0055] Further, please see Figure 3 In this embodiment, the specific composition of the cylindrical structure 11 is not limited. In this embodiment, the cylindrical structure 11 includes multiple precast cylindrical segments 111 and multiple prestressing tendons 112. The precast cylindrical segments 111 are arranged in an arc shape. The multiple precast cylindrical segments 111 are connected sequentially along the circumference. Each precast cylindrical segment 111 has a prestressing tendon 112 channel 1112 passing through it along its circumference. The outer sides of both ends of the precast cylindrical segment 111 are provided with grooves 1111. The grooves 1111 communicate with the prestressing tendon 112 channels 1112. Each prestressing tendon 112 passes through two adjacent prestressing tendon 112 channels 1112. Both ends of the prestressing tendon 112 are fixed to the sidewall of the groove 1111 by anchors. The prestressing tendon 112 is used to fix two adjacent precast cylindrical segments 111. A ring structure is formed by splicing multiple prefabricated cylindrical sections 111 circumferentially, and then the prestressed tendons 112 are connected and fixed in pairs, thereby fixing the entire cylindrical structure 11. The grooves 1111 are provided to facilitate the anchorage to fix the prestressed tendons 112.
[0056] Specifically, each of the precast cylindrical pieces 111 has an arc-shaped groove at its top and an arc-shaped protrusion at its bottom. Multiple arc-shaped grooves together form the tenon groove, and multiple arc-shaped protrusions together form the tenon.
[0057] Specifically, in this embodiment, there are four precast cylindrical segments 111 and four prestressing tendons 112.
[0058] Furthermore, in order to improve the connection strength between two adjacent precast cylindrical segments 111, two prestressing tendon 112 channels 1112 are provided, and the two prestressing tendon 112 channels 1112 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. That is, each prestressing tendon 112 channel 1112 is provided with a prestressing tendon 112. The two prestressing tendons 112 connect the two adjacent precast cylindrical segments 111, thereby enhancing their connection strength.
[0059] Furthermore, in order to improve the waterproofing effect, in this embodiment, a slow-expansion water-swellable waterstop strip is also pre-embedded in the splice joint between two adjacent precast cylindrical sections 111. This setting can improve its waterproofing effect.
[0060] Furthermore, to facilitate subsequent maintenance of the storage chamber, in this embodiment, the sealing device 4 is also provided with an opening connecting to the hydrogen storage space; the underground large-scale hydrogen storage structure also includes a sealing door 52 structure 5, which is located at the opening and used to open and close the opening. By providing the opening, it is convenient for personnel to enter the storage chamber for maintenance in the future, while the sealing door 52 structure 5 can seal the opening when storing hydrogen.
[0061] Further, please see Figures 4 to 5 In this embodiment, the sealing door 52 structure 5 includes a door frame 51, a sealing door 52, a drive mechanism 53, and a sealing ring 54. The door frame 51 is located on the periphery of the opening, and a sealing groove is provided around the circumference of the door frame 51. One end of the sealing door 52 is rotatably mounted on one side of the door frame 51 along a horizontal axis. The drive mechanism 53 is connected to the sealing door 52 and is used to drive the sealing door 52 to rotate. The sealing ring 54 is located in the sealing groove so that when the sealing door 52 closes the opening, a portion of the sealing door 52 extends into the sealing groove and abuts against the sealing ring 54.
[0062] Furthermore, in order to improve the connection strength between the door frame 51 and the sealing device 4, in this embodiment, the door frame 51 is provided with connectors on all four sides, and the connectors are located inside the sealing device 4. This arrangement can enhance the connection strength between the door frame 51 and the sealing device 4.
[0063] Further, please see Figures 4 to 5The door frame 51 has a pivot hole 521 on one side, and the sealing door 52 has a pivot hole 521 at one end. The pivot hole 521 is rotatably installed in the pivot hole 521. The drive mechanism 53 includes a first gear 531, a second gear 532, and a drive motor 533. The first gear 531 is rotatably installed on the door frame 51, and the second gear 532 is fixedly installed on the pivot hole 521. The first gear 531 and the second gear 532 mesh. The drive motor 533 is connected to the first gear 531 and is used to drive the first gear 531 to rotate. Specifically, the sealing door 52 is semi-circular in shape. The rotating shaft 521 is located at one end of the sealing door 52 in a straight line. Both ends of the door frame 51 have protrusions, and each protrusion has a hole for the rotating shaft 521. The rotating shaft 521 is located between two holes, and both ends of the rotating shaft 521 are rotatably mounted in the holes via bearings. One end of the rotating shaft 521 extends out of the hole and is fixedly connected to the second gear 532. Since the first gear 531 meshes with the second gear 532, when the drive motor 533 drives the first gear 531 to rotate, it can drive the rotating shaft 521 to rotate, thereby driving the sealing door 52 to rotate, achieving the purpose of opening and closing the opening. When the sealing door 52 closes the opening, part of the sealing door 52 can penetrate into the sealing groove and abut against the sealing ring 54, achieving a better sealing effect.
[0064] Further, please see Figure 1 In this embodiment, the sealing structure 3 includes a sliding buffer layer 31 and a hydrogen barrier sealing layer 32. The sliding buffer layer 31 is bonded to the inner surface of the cavity with epoxy resin adhesive, and the hydrogen barrier sealing layer 32 is bonded to the hydrogen-facing side of the sliding buffer layer 31 with epoxy resin adhesive. The sliding buffer layer 31 is a high-damping rubber with a thickness of 10-50 mm; the hydrogen barrier sealing layer 32 is a polyvinyl alcohol film with a thickness of 3-10 mm; the epoxy resin adhesive uses a bisphenol A type epoxy resin matrix and is doped with 5% by mass of alumina and 5% by mass of boron nitride nanosheets.
[0065] Further, please see Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 9In this embodiment, multiple anti-pull-out composite anchor piles 6 are provided at the bottom of the concrete base slab 2 and the bottom of the sealing device 4. The anti-pull-out composite anchor piles 6 are used to be embedded in the ground to fix the concrete base slab 2 and the sealing device 4. Specifically, before pouring the concrete base slab 2, multiple dewatering wells are first set at the bottom of the foundation pit. Anti-pull-out anchor rods 61 and filter pipes 7 are inserted in the middle of the dewatering wells. The filter pipes 7 have multiple filter holes around their circumference. Then, filter material 8 is filled into the gap between the anti-pull-out anchor rods 61, the filter pipes 7, and the dewatering wells. By setting the filter pipes 7, groundwater flows through the filter material 8 into the filter pipes 7. The groundwater in the filter pipes 7 is then pumped away by a water pump, thus lowering the groundwater level. After dewatering is completed, the filter pipes 7 are removed, and cement grout is injected into the remaining holes in the filter pipes 7 to form an anti-pull-out composite anchor pile 6 with the anti-pull-out anchor rods 61. Similarly, the same construction method is used when installing the sealing device 4, which will not be elaborated here.
[0066] Furthermore, the filter media 8 is medium-coarse sand with a particle size of 2mm to 5mm.
[0067] Furthermore, for the convenience of installing the pull-out anchor 61 and the filter pipe 7, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 7 to 8 In this embodiment, the outer side of the filter pipe 7 is provided with a plurality of fixing rings with a diameter matching that of the pull-out anchor rod 61. The plurality of fixing rings are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, and the pull-out anchor rod 61 passes through the plurality of fixing rings.
[0068] Furthermore, the pull-out anchor 61 is a prestressed steel strand or a high-strength steel bar.
[0069] Further, please see Figures 7 to 8 The lower end of the anti-pull-out anchor rod 61 is provided with a tapered end plate 611, and the surface of the tapered end plate 611 is provided with a positioning groove, and the lower end of the filter pipe 7 is embedded in the positioning groove.
[0070] Furthermore, the plurality of filter holes are arranged in multiple spiral rows, and the outer side of the filter pipe 7 is wrapped with a filter screen, which is used for filtration.
[0071] Further, please see Figure 1 In this embodiment, the sealing device 4 is a reinforced concrete structure, and the cross-sectional area of the sealing device 4 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the concrete lining layer 1. This arrangement facilitates the installation of the tension-resistant composite anchor pile 6 at the bottom of the sealing device 4, avoiding interference between the tension-resistant composite anchor pile 6 and the concrete lining layer.
[0072] Furthermore, the connection method between the sealing device 4 and the anti-pull-out composite anchor pile 6 is not limited. In this embodiment, the circumference of the sealing device 4 is provided with multiple anchoring grooves. One end of the anti-pull-out anchor 61 is fixed in the anchoring groove by an anchor, and the other end extends through the sealing device 4 into the ground. The anchoring groove is filled and smoothed with micro-expansion concrete after the anti-pull-out anchor 61 is tensioned.

[0081] Specifically, the soil inside the cylindrical structure 11 is excavated, the cylindrical structure 11 is slowly lowered, and an asphalt layer is applied to the tenon and groove surface of the cylindrical structure 11. The cylindrical structure 11 is spliced and positioned vertically through the tenon and groove, and finally a concrete lining layer 1 is formed.
[0082] S4. Multiple sets of dewatering wells are set at the bottom of the concrete lining layer 1 to reduce groundwater, and anti-uplift composite anchor piles 6 are made using the dewatering wells. The concrete base slab 2 is then poured so that the concrete base slab 2 and the anti-uplift composite anchor piles 6 form an integral whole.
[0083] Specifically, multiple sets of dewatering wells are set at the bottom of the concrete lining layer 1 to lower the groundwater level. A drilling rig is used to construct the dewatering well holes. After the well holes are constructed, anti-pull anchor rods 61 and filter pipes 7 are lowered. Then, filter material 8 is added to filter impurities. A pumping pipe and a pumping pump are installed to dewater. After dewatering is completed, the filter pipe 7 is pulled out. Cement grout is injected into the gap left after the filter pipe 7 is pulled out using a grouting machine. Then, the anti-pull anchor rods 61 are tensioned and anchored to form an anti-pull composite anchor pile 6. Finally, the concrete base slab 2 is poured to form an integral structure.
[0084] S5. Adhere the sealing structure 3 to the inner side of the concrete lining layer 1 and the concrete base slab 2.

Cement grout was injected into the gap left after the filter pipes 7 were pulled out using a grouting machine. Then, the pull-out anchor rods 61 were tensioned and anchored to form the pull-out composite anchor piles 6. Finally, the anchoring grooves were filled and smoothed with micro-expansion concrete.
[0088] S7. Install the sealing device 4 on the top of the concrete lining layer 1, and fix the sealing device 4 to the pull-out composite anchor pile 6 to form the entire hydrogen storage structure.

At the same time, the surrounding rock and soil can provide a natural enclosure effect, improving the safety and reliability of the hydrogen storage structure.
[0090] The hydrogen storage structure in this utility model is a prefabricated structure, manufactured in a factory assembly line, ensuring stable and controllable quality. Simultaneously, prestressing is applied through unbonded prestressed tendons 112 to increase the rigidity of the components, thereby offsetting or reducing the internal forces generated by hydrogen and enhancing the safety and stability of the structure. Furthermore, the use of mortise and tenon joints effectively prevents horizontal slippage and separation between the two parts at the interface of the cylinder structure 11, ensuring that the concrete lining layer 1 functions as a unified whole. The addition of an asphalt layer at the mortise and tenon joints enhances overall integrity and provides waterproofing, improving the structure's durability.
[0091] In this invention, the hydrogen storage structure is reinforced by the pull-out anchor 61. The bottom of the pull-out anchor 61 is provided with a tapered end plate 611. When the pull-out anchor 61 is subjected to a pull-out force, in addition to the side friction of the pull-out anchor 61 playing a pull-out role, the resistance of the tapered end plate 611 also plays a pull-out role, thereby improving the stability of the pull-out anchor 61 and solving the problem that the anchor cannot withstand large tensile stress. This effectively prevents the sealing device 4 from being blown out during the circulation injection and extraction of hydrogen, thus preventing a safety accident.
[0092] In this invention, the pull-out anchor 61 and the filter pipe 7 are lowered together into the dewatering well. After dewatering is completed, the filter pipe 7 is pulled out. The pores formed after the filter pipe 7 is pulled out can be filled with cement grout. The cement grout seeps into the pores of the filter material 8 and solidifies, effectively connecting the pull-out anchor 61 and the cement pile as one unit, making it also serve as a pull-out composite anchor pile 6 during the project operation period. This reduces the investment in pull-out measures and greatly saves construction time and project costs.
[0093] This utility model features a hydrogen storage structure with strong on-site construction operability, high degree of component assembly, high work efficiency, excellent waterproofing, good overall structural performance and construction quality. It also incorporates dewatering wells as anti-pull-out composite anchor piles, enhancing pull-out resistance. The project cost is relatively low, and it is energy-saving and environmentally friendly, making it highly valuable for widespread application.
[0094] The hydrogen storage structure of this invention enables large-scale hydrogen storage, making up for the weakness in hydrogen storage in the hydrogen energy industry and promoting the rapid development of my country's hydrogen energy industry.
