Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the casting of the roof arch of a secondary steel lining formwork platform, and in particular to a grouting device for preventing voids and relieving pressure during the casting of the roof arch of a secondary steel lining formwork platform. Background Technology
[0002] Steel formwork trolleys are widely used in secondary lining concrete pouring during tunnel construction. However, poor venting is a common problem during the construction of the arch section. This issue manifests primarily as poor gas venting, leading to voids in the arch section. After the secondary lining concrete is poured, internal gases fail to escape effectively, creating gaps between the concrete and the formwork. Furthermore, during the final arch sealing stage, the high pressure generated by the concrete pump makes it even more difficult to expel residual gas. This not only exacerbates the void problem but can also cause the arch formwork to deform under excessive pressure, severely impacting the stability and safety of the tunnel structure.
[0003] Besides the ventilation issue, the secondary lining concrete also experiences shrinkage after pouring and solidifying. This shrinkage causes gaps to appear between the outer surface of the secondary lining concrete layer and the inner surface of the primary support concrete. If these gaps are not addressed promptly, they may adversely affect the overall structural strength and durability of the tunnel. The traditional method is to drill grouting holes and then perform secondary grouting to fill these gaps. However, this method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also costly and may cause some damage to the tunnel structure. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a grouting device for preventing voids and relieving pressure during the pouring of the arch of a secondary lining steel formwork trolley, which effectively solves the problem of voids occurring in the arch and reduces the construction cost of secondary grouting to fill the gaps.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention can adopt the following technical solution:
[0006] The present invention relates to a grouting device for preventing voids and relieving pressure during the pouring of the arch of a secondary lining steel formwork trolley. The device includes a vertically upward-sealed exhaust pipe that penetrates the top formwork plate, with the upper opening of the exhaust pipe having an angled opening structure. A concrete pouring port is provided on the top formwork plate, and a movable cover plate is installed at the concrete pouring port, which is slidably mounted on the surface of the top formwork plate. A concrete pouring pipe is fixed on the lower surface of the top formwork plate, located on one side of the exhaust pipe, with its upper opening fixedly connected to the concrete pouring port. A support plate and a positioning seat are fixed on the outer wall of the concrete pouring pipe. The support plate is equipped with a drive mechanism for opening / closing the concrete pouring port, and the positioning seat is connected to the exhaust pipe located below the top formwork plate via a connector.
[0007] Alternatively, the drive mechanism includes a rotating shaft hinged to the support plate, the rotating shaft passing vertically upward through the top mold plate and fixedly connected to the movable cover plate, and a handle fixed to the lower end of the rotating shaft.
[0008] Alternatively, the connector is a movable buckle, and the positioning seat is connected to the exhaust pipe located below the top mold plate via the movable buckle.
[0009] Alternatively, a sealing plate is fitted onto the exhaust pipe located below the top mold plate via a sealing ring, with the upper surface of the sealing plate in close contact with the lower surface of the top mold plate.
[0010] Alternatively, to facilitate the removal of the exhaust pipe from the solidified secondary lining concrete, a plastic wrap may be placed over the exhaust pipe.
[0011] This invention adds an vent pipe with an inclined opening to the side of the concrete pouring pipe. This allows gas within the secondary lining concrete pouring area to escape through the inclined opening, playing a crucial role in venting and depressurization, preventing voids. Simultaneously, during the arch sealing stage of the secondary lining concrete pouring, when the grout overflows from the vent pipe, it's a clear indication that the pouring is complete, improving construction efficiency and accuracy. Furthermore, after the secondary concrete has solidified, grouting material can be injected through the vent pipe opening to effectively fill the gap between the secondary lining concrete layer and the initial support concrete, eliminating the need for additional drilling of grouting holes. This not only simplifies the construction process and reduces costs but also improves the integrity and durability of the tunnel structure. Attached Figure Description

[0020] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the grouting device for preventing voids and relieving pressure during the pouring of the arch of the secondary lining steel formwork trolley according to this utility model includes a vent pipe 2 made of PVC material that is vertically and sealingly inserted through the top formwork plate 1. The upper opening of the vent pipe 2 is a downwardly inclined pipe opening structure. A concrete pouring port 3 is provided on the top formwork plate 1, and a movable cover plate 4 is provided at the concrete pouring port 3. The movable cover plate 4 is slidably set on the upper surface of the top formwork plate 1. A concrete pouring pipe 5 is welded on the lower surface of the top formwork plate 1 on one side of the vent pipe 2. The upper opening of the concrete pouring pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the concrete pouring port 3. A support plate 6 and a positioning seat 7 are fixed on the outer wall of the concrete pouring pipe 5. A drive mechanism for opening / closing the concrete pouring port is provided on the support plate 6. The positioning seat 7 is connected to the vent pipe 2 located below the top formwork plate 1 through a connector.
[0021] Advantageously or exemplary, the drive mechanism includes a rotating shaft 8 hinged to the support plate 6, the rotating shaft passing vertically upward through the top mold plate 1 and fixedly connected to the movable cover plate 4, and a handle 9 fixed to the lower end of the rotating shaft 8 to facilitate operation of the movable cover plate 4 to open / close the concrete pouring port.
[0022] Advantageously or exemplary, the connector is a movable buckle 10; one end of the movable buckle is screwed to the positioning seat 7 by a bolt, and the other end is connected to the positioning seat 7 by a pin and a cotter pin, so that the exhaust pipe 2 located below the top mold plate 1 and the positioning seat 7 can be detachably connected by the movable buckle 10.
[0023] Ideally or exemplary, a sealing plate 12 is fitted onto the exhaust pipe 2 located below the top formwork 1 via a sealing ring 11. The upper surface of the sealing plate 12 is in close contact with the lower surface of the top formwork 1 to prevent grout from flowing out from the gap between the top formwork 1 and the outer wall of the exhaust pipe 2 during the second-stage concrete pouring process.
[0024] Advantageously or exemplary, the exhaust pipe 2 is covered with plastic wrap, which facilitates the removal of the exhaust pipe 2 from the solidified secondary concrete.
[0025] The grouting method of this utility model is as follows:
[0026] Step 1: After the top formwork 1 is erected, the top of the inclined pipe opening of the exhaust pipe 2 is brought into contact with and pressed against the inner side of the initial support concrete 13 of the arch. Then, the exhaust pipe 2 below the top formwork 1 is connected and positioned to the positioning seat 7 through the movable buckle 10.
[0027] Step 2: Operate the movable cover plate 4 using handle 9 to open the concrete pouring port 3 (e.g., Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the external pump pipe (not shown in the figure) is connected to the lower pipe opening of the concrete pouring pipe 5 by means of a buckle;
[0028] Step 3: Start the concrete pump and deliver the secondary lining concrete to the secondary lining concrete pouring area (the area between the initial support concrete 13 of the arch and the top formwork 1) through the concrete pouring pipe 5. Simultaneously, activate the attached vibrator 14 installed on the lower surface of the top formwork 1 for vibration. As the injected secondary lining concrete surface gradually rises, the gas in the secondary lining concrete pouring area is gradually discharged from the inclined pipe of the vent pipe 2. When the poured secondary lining concrete surface rises to the top arch surface, some concrete slurry enters the vent pipe 2 through the inclined pipe and flows out from the lower pipe opening. When the concrete slurry in the vent pipe 2 overflows, stop the secondary lining concrete pouring, seal the vent pipe 2 opening with the sealing plug 15, and close the concrete pouring port 3 by operating the movable cover plate 4 using the handle 9 (e.g., ...). Figure 4 (As shown), remove the external pump pipe;
[0029] Step 4: After the secondary lining concrete has solidified, open the movable buckle 10 and pull out the exhaust pipe 2, and grout at the original hole position until the gap between the secondary lining concrete pouring layer and the arch initial support concrete 13 is filled, and the grouting construction is completed.
