[0024] The utility model will be further described below in combination with specific embodiments. EMBODIMENT

[0025] As Figure 1 shown, a flexible facing structure for hydraulic protection of gas pipeline, comprising a plurality of concrete slabs 1 spliced together, a plurality of concrete slabs 1 are arranged in multiple rows and multiple columns to form a flexible concrete slab, the side surface of the concrete slab 1 is provided with a notch, a steel ring 2 is arranged in the body of the concrete slab 1, the part of the steel ring 2 located at the notch is protruded from the notch, and the adjacent steel rings 2 of adjacent concrete slabs 1 are connected through a connection ring sleeve 3 (i.e. a hinge); the edge of the concrete slab 1 at one side of the flexible concrete slab is connected with an anchoring shackle 4 through the connection ring sleeve 3, and the anchoring shackle 4 is provided with one hook at one side and two hooks at the other side. One side of one of the hooks is used for being connected with the concrete slab 1; one side of the two hooks is used for being anchored to a fixed pile.

[0026] The flexible facing structure is used for protecting the gas pipeline laid along the river bank, and the function is that with the deepening of the river bed scouring depth, the flexible facing can automatically sink into the scouring pit to cover the pit wall, so that the scouring angle is not developed backward, so as to protect the stability of the soil covering the pipeline periphery. In order to reduce the force acting on the facing by water flow, the flexible concrete slab should be laid at a position slightly lower than the dry water level elevation.

[0027] The flexible facing structure is most suitable to be laid on the medium-grained gravel river bed foundation, which is best in sinking uniformity and effect. For the river bed foundation of small-grained sand and cohesive soil, a cushion layer must be arranged, and hot pitch is filled in the joints with the reinforcing mesh, and the flexible facing structure is not suitable for the river bed with many big boulders.

[0028] Further, the upper and lower end surfaces of the concrete slab 1 are square, and the area of the upper end surface is greater than that of the lower end surface, and such a concrete slab 1 is suitable for pipeline laying as a straight line, the notch is located at the midpoint of the square edge, and the steel ring 2 is also square, and the four vertices of the steel ring 2 are located at the notches respectively.

[0029] Further, the flexible concrete slab comprises 6-8 concrete slabs 1 in each row and 6-8 concrete slabs 1 in each column.

[0030] Further, the size of the upper end surface of the concrete slab 1 is 0.5 m x 0.5 m, 0.75 m x 0.75 m or 1.0 m x 1.0 m, and the thickness of the concrete slab 1 is not less than 0.2 m.

[0031] Further, when the size of the upper end surface of the concrete slab 1 is 0.5 m x 0.5 m or 0.75 m x 0.75 m, the reinforcing ring 2 is made of reinforcing steel with a diameter of 14-18 mm, and when the size of the upper end surface of the concrete slab 1 is 1.0 m x 1.0 m, the reinforcing ring 2 is made of reinforcing steel with a diameter of 18-22 mm, and the anchoring hook ring 4 is made of reinforcing steel with a diameter of 28-32 mm.

[0032] Further, when the size of the upper end surface of the concrete slab 1 is 0.5 m x 0.5 m, the size of the two rows of front edge end portions and the two columns of end portions in the water flow direction of the concrete slab 1 is set to be 1050 mm in the length of the upper end surface and 250 mm in thickness.

[0033] Further, the upper and lower end surfaces of the concrete slab 1 are trapezoidal, and the area of the upper end surface is larger than that of the lower end surface. Such a concrete slab 1 is suitable for pipeline laying in a curve or with a bent pipe. When the upper and lower end surfaces of the concrete slab 1 are trapezoidal, a plurality of concrete slabs 1 are arranged and connected in a radial shape to form a flexible concrete slab.

[0034] Further, the flexible concrete slab arranged in a radial shape is grouped in 4-6 columns in each direction.

[0035] Working process and principle: According to the water flow condition, the flexible protective structure should be laid on the riverbed in the protection range in groups in a direction perpendicular to the pipeline laying. When the pipeline laying is in a straight line, square slabs (i.e. the upper and lower end surfaces of the concrete slab 1 are square) are arranged in a straight line, and it is appropriate that the laying is grouped in 6-8 columns in a group. When the pipeline laying is in a curve or with a bent pipe, trapezoidal slabs (i.e. the upper and lower end surfaces of the concrete slab 1 are trapezoidal) are arranged in a radial shape, and it is better that the laying is grouped in 4-6 columns in a group. The anchoring hook ring 4 can be anchored to a specially designed fixed pile at the end close to the riverbank.

[0036] The laying length should be such that the concrete slab can cover the entire pipeline trench, and the end portion should be connected to the riverbank in sequence.

[0037] When the size of the concrete slab used is large, the entire facing is usually made of one slab. When the size is small, in order to prevent displacement of the slab, the two rows of the front edge end and the two rows of the end in the direction of the water flow of the entire facing are replaced by slabs of increased and thickened size (1050mmx250mm). At the same time, in order to reduce the tension on the fixed end, the two rows of slabs near the fixed end are also replaced by slabs of increased and thickened size.

[0038] The concrete slab is prefabricated using C20 concrete, and the planar size is preferably 0.5mX0.5m, 0.75mX0.75m and 1.0mX1.0m. The thickness of the slab should not be less than 0.2m. Steel bars are arranged in the slab as connecting hooks, and the size of the steel bars is as follows: D(14~18)mm steel bars are used for smaller slabs; D(18~22)mm steel bars are used for larger slabs; and D(28~32)mm steel bars are used for the anchoring hooks of the fixed end. The outer part of the steel bars should be coated with rust-proof agent to prevent rusting.

[0039] Before the concrete is laid, large boulders should be removed, the riverbed is leveled, or a layer of gravel cushion is first laid, and a gentle slope is formed from the river bank to the river center according to the riverbed topography.
