Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water conservancy and hydropower engineering, and in particular to a hinged water seal structure for a low-head submerged arc gate. Background Technology
[0002] Arc-shaped gates are an important component of hydraulic engineering structures, frequently used as working gates in water diversion channels, spillways, and dams, serving as crucial flood discharge facilities. For submerged arc-shaped gates, in addition to bottom, side, and top water seals, a pivot water seal is also installed on the lintel of the gate slot embedded parts. During operation, when the arc-shaped gate is opened or closed, the top water seal detaches from the water-stopping surface on the lintel, preventing water from jetting through the gaps.
[0003] Currently, the hinge water seal structure of most submersible arc gates is quite complex, such as... Figure 1 As shown, this hinged water seal structure consists of a hinged water seal seat, a leaf spring, a water seal rubber (rounded L-shaped), a water seal pressure plate, and a water stop plate, all assembled together using bolts. The problem with the above-mentioned hinged water seal structure is:
[0004] For some low-head submerged arc gates, the distance between the lintel surface and the arc gate is small, while the horizontal distance from the lintel surface to the outer edge of the hinge water seal in the hinge water seal structure is large, and the length of this horizontal section cannot be further compressed, making the aforementioned hinge water seal structure unsuitable for low-head submerged arc gates.

[0023] In order to make the technical personnel in the technical field better understand the technical scheme of the present application, the technical scheme of the present application will be further described below in combination with specific embodiments.
[0024] In some overseas engineering projects, it is necessary to apply a downhole type arc gate as a working gate, but due to the fact that the civil structure has been basically determined, it is difficult to make large adjustments. In this case, the downhole type arc gate with a small orifice and low water head is arranged. For the downhole type arc gate with a small orifice and low water head, the horizontal distance from the surface of the lintel 1 to the outer edge of the arc gate panel 3 is relatively small, and the rotating hinge water seal structure 4 used by the traditional large orifice and high water head arc gate is relatively complex, and the length of the horizontal section cannot be further compressed, which leads to the fact that it cannot be used in the downhole type arc gate with a small orifice and low water head.
[0025] In combination with Figure 2 With Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the embodiment is a rotating hinge water seal structure of a low water head downhole type arc gate, which is suitable for an arc gate with a small water head and a small orifice. A top water seal device 2 and a rotating hinge water seal structure 4 are arranged between the lintel 1 and the panel 3 of the arc gate. The top water seal device 2 is located above the rotating hinge water seal structure 4. The rotating hinge water seal structure 4 includes a water seal base plate 402, a water seal rubber 401, and a water seal pressing plate 403. The water seal rubber 401 includes a clamping portion and a water seal round head. The water seal base plate 402 is fixed on the lintel 1 by welding a plurality of rib plates, which can enhance the rigidity and strength of the water seal base plate 402. The end of the clamping portion towards the panel 3 of the arc gate is provided with a water seal round head, which can abut against the panel 3 of the arc gate. The horizontal length L from the clamping portion to the water seal round head is matched with the distance from the lintel 1 to the panel 3 of the arc gate. The water seal pressing plate 403 and the water seal base plate 402 clamp the water seal rubber 401. The water seal base plate 402, the water seal rubber 401, and the water seal pressing plate 403 are all provided with screw holes and connected by bolts.
[0026] In some embodiments, the water seal rubber 401 in the embodiment adopts an outer R corner L type structure. The selection principles of the water seal rubber 401 include: (1) the vertical length H from the clamping portion to the water seal round head is relatively small, and the diameter D of the water seal round head is relatively large, so as to improve the rigidity of the free end of the L type water seal and prevent the free end from being broken or turned over under the action of water pressure; (2) the horizontal length L from the clamping portion to the water seal round head is relatively small, so as to meet the arrangement requirements in the case that the horizontal distance length W from the surface of the lintel 1 to the outer edge of the arc gate panel 3 is small.
[0027] Further, the hinge water seal structure 4 should be designed and arranged in advance to ensure that the water seal round head has at least a partial pre-compression amount Δt in the closed state of the gate, so as to improve the water-proof effect.
[0028] Further, the surface of the water seal round head abutting against the arc-shaped gate is provided with a PTFE coating, so as to reduce the friction coefficient of the friction surface between the arc-shaped gate panel 3 and the hinge water seal structure 4, thereby reducing the friction therebetween and protecting the water seal rubber 401.
[0029] The implementation principle of the hinge water seal structure of the low-head subsurface arc-shaped gate in the embodiment is as follows:
[0030] The conventional hinge water seal structure has high difficulty in manufacturing and installation, and is prone to be broken in actual operation, and has high difficulty in installation and debugging, and it is difficult to adjust to a proper angle, and if the angle is improper, the conventional hinge water seal structure is prone to be broken.
[0031] In the structure, the water seal base plate 402, the water seal rubber 401 and the water seal pressing plate 403 are bolted to form a simple hinge water seal structure 4, the length of the horizontal section of the water seal rubber 401 can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual situation of the small orifice and low-head subsurface arc-shaped gate, so that the length of the horizontal section of the water seal rubber 401 is adapted to the distance from the surface of the lintel 1 to the outer edge of the arc-shaped gate panel 3, the implementation method is simple, the requirement for the fitting precision is much smaller than that of the conventional hinge water seal structure 4, the processing difficulty is small, and the manpower and material resources are greatly saved, and the manufacturing and installation period of the arc-shaped gate is shortened.
[0032] The above are the preferred embodiments of the utility model, and do not limit the protection scope of the utility model, so that: all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape and principle of the utility model should be covered in the protection scope of the utility model.
