Chinese patent 2021115516234 discloses a traffic wind power generation heating anti-freezing system for tunnel drainage pipe in cold region, and the application publication number is CN114382536A. The system sets up electric heat tracing band in drainage pipe to heat water in drainage pipe, to prevent drainage pipe freezing. But there are many drawbacks in actual use, 1) electric heat tracing band and temperature sensor are directly in contact with water, which has the risk of accelerating aging and easy to leak; 2) electric heat tracing band and temperature sensor change the shape of the inner cavity section of the drainage pipe, causing poor water flow and easy to block; 3) tunnel drainage engineering usually needs to use multiple drainage pipes in series, and it is difficult to insert electric heat tracing band into drainage pipe after connecting drainage pipe. Even if the electric heat tracing band is inserted into the drainage pipe using a guide line, it is also difficult to arrange the posture of the electric heat tracing band in the drainage pipe, and the twisted, uncooperative and disordered electric heat tracing band is more likely to block the pipeline.

[0020] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely exemplary in nature and is in no way intended to limit the application or its application or uses.

[0021] Techniques, methods, and apparatus known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art can not be discussed in detail herein. However, where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and apparatus can be considered as part of the present application.

[0022] In all the examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0023] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be discussed further in subsequent figures.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the drainage pipe for tunnels in cold regions according to this utility model includes an inner pipe body 1 and an outer pipe sleeve 2 fitted over the inner pipe body 1. Both the inner pipe body 1 and the outer pipe sleeve 2 are ordinary cylindrical pipe structures, and their materials can be PVC plastic pipes or metal pipes. The inner pipe body 1 can be joined by hot-melt welding or metal welding, or by pipe clamps. The welding methods for PVC plastic pipes or metal pipes, as well as the structure of the pipe clamps connecting the pipes, are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] The outer sleeve 2 is equipped with a pipe connection mechanism at its end, which allows two sections of the outer sleeve 2 to be connected together, thereby extending the overall length of the outer sleeve 2. In one embodiment of this invention, the pipe connection mechanism is a flange 21 fixedly connected to the end face of the outer sleeve 2. Figure 1 As shown, both ends of the outer sleeve 2 have flanges 21. The two outer sleeves 2 can be connected by bolting the opposite flanges together. Of course, pipe clamps can also be used to connect the two outer sleeves 2.

[0026] The inner diameter of the outer sleeve 2 is larger than the outer diameter of the inner tube 1. A jacket layer 3 is provided between the inner tube 1 and the outer sleeve 2, both of equal length. A support ring 4 and an electric heating tape 5 are installed in the jacket layer 3. The electric heating tape 5 can be laid flat on the outer wall of the inner tube 1 using double-sided adhesive, or it can be spirally wound around the outer wall of the inner tube 1. Each inner tube 1 has at least one support ring 4 at each end to support the outer sleeve 2, forming a jacket layer 3 of uniform thickness. This jacket layer 3 is filled with air, providing excellent insulation and preventing the water in the inner tube 1 from freezing to a certain extent.

[0027] The support ring 4 is a ring structure made of foamed rubber, and is fitted on the outer wall of the inner pipe body 1 in an interference fit, with the outer ring surface of the support ring 4 adapted to the inner wall of the outer pipe sleeve 2. In order to facilitate installation, the support ring 4 is a circular truncated cone structure with an outer conical surface. In addition, a plurality of outer ring surface grooves 41 are uniformly distributed on the outer ring surface of the support ring 4, and a plurality of inner ring surface grooves 42 can also be uniformly distributed on the inner ring surface. The power supply wire 6 for supplying power to the electric heating band 5 extends from one end of the outer pipe sleeve 2 to the other end, and the power supply wire 6 is threaded through and installed in the outer ring surface groove 41 or the inner ring surface groove 42.

[0028] As shown in Figure 3 , the electric heating band 5 is connected in parallel to the power supply wire 6, and a fuse FU and a control circuit K are connected in series on the power supply wire 6, and the control circuit K is connected to a temperature sensor T. When the temperature sensor T senses that the ambient temperature is lower than a threshold value, the control circuit K is triggered to apply a voltage to the electric heating band 5, and the electric heating band 5 generates heat to increase the temperature of the inner pipe body 1, achieving the purpose of thawing or preventing icing.

[0029] During assembly and construction, first, the electric heating band 5 is laid on the outer wall of the inner pipe body 1, which can be laid flat and adhered to the outer wall of the inner pipe body 1 by double-sided adhesive tape, or can be wound in a spiral shape on the outer wall of the inner pipe body 1. After laying, the two ends of the electric heating band 5 are slightly shorter than the inner pipe body 1, and then two power supply wires 6 that are slightly longer than the inner pipe body 1 are laid flat on the outer wall of the inner pipe body 1, and the power supply ends of the electric heating band 5 are connected to the power supply wires 6; after the first support ring 4 is sleeved on the front end of the inner pipe body 1, the end portion of the power supply wire 6 is extended to the outside through the outer ring surface groove 41 or the inner ring surface groove 42 on the support ring, and then the outer pipe sleeve 2 is sleeved from the rear end of the inner pipe body 1, until the front end of the outer pipe sleeve 2 is sleeved on the first support ring, and then the second support ring is sleeved from the rear end of the inner pipe body 1, and the second support ring is inserted into the gap between the inner pipe body 1 and the outer pipe sleeve 2, thereby completing the assembly of a group of drain pipes. In the project, if only one group of drain pipes is needed, the power supply wire 6 at one end of the drain pipe can be insulated, and the other end can be connected to the power output end of the control circuit K; if two or more groups of drain pipes need to be connected and used later, as shown in Figure 1 , first, the inner pipe bodies 1 are connected by conventional methods, which can be directly welded together or connected by pipe clamps; then the exposed power supply wires 6 are connected and insulated, which can be directly welded together or connected by connectors; after the power supply wires 6 are connected, the flanges of the outer pipe sleeves 2 of the two groups of drain pipes are fixedly connected together by bolts, and so on, so that more drain pipes can be connected to form a longer drainage system. Finally, the power supply wire 6 at one end of the drainage system is insulated, and the other end of the power supply wire is connected to the power output end of the control circuit K.
