Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of vertical shaft construction and reinforcement technology, and in particular to a consolidation grouting reinforcement structure for a water intake vertical shaft. Background Technology
[0002] Chinese invention patent CN104005768B discloses a method for reinforcing a weak geological layer in the middle section of a vertical shaft. The method involves sinking a sealed, welded cylinder into the weak geological layer section in the middle of the shaft that requires reinforcement. The cylinder contains a grouting device connected to the ground via a vertical grouting pipe. Grout is injected between the cylinder and the shaft through this grouting device. Once the grouting strength reaches the required level, the cylinder is removed, leaving only the cylinder body, thus achieving reinforcement of the weak geological layer in the middle section of the shaft. This method is characterized by convenient operation, short construction period, and high efficiency, reducing project costs and solving the problem of the difficulty in reinforcing water-rich sand layers or weak rock layers in vertical shafts using existing technologies.
[0003] However, in practical applications, if the wall of the sinker is in close contact with the inner wall of the shaft, it generates significant friction and resistance. During the lowering process, the sinker's weight must overcome this substantial resistance. Due to the excessive friction, the sinker cannot fall smoothly under its own weight and often requires additional external force to push it. This not only increases the construction difficulty but may also damage the sinker and the shaft wall. Moreover, even if the sinker is pushed with sufficient external force, it is difficult to ensure its stability and verticality during descent. If tilting occurs, subsequent grouting operations will not be able to be carried out evenly, severely affecting the reinforcement effect.
[0004] When the size of the sinker is smaller than the shaft, gaps will form between the sinker and the shaft wall. During grouting, the grout flowing from the radial grouting pipe cannot be precisely injected into the target weak geological layer; instead, a significant portion will flow into other areas along the gaps between the sinker and the shaft wall. This portion of grout fails to reinforce the weak geological layer, directly resulting in grout waste. Furthermore, because the grout cannot be effectively concentrated in the areas requiring reinforcement, the grouting process takes longer to achieve the desired reinforcement effect, thus reducing grouting efficiency. Moreover, the presence of gaps can lead to unstable grouting pressure, further affecting grouting quality and failing to ensure sufficient and uniform reinforcement of the weak geological layer, threatening the structural stability of the entire shaft.

[0006] This application provides a consolidation grouting reinforcement structure for a water intake shaft, including a sink cylinder 1, a grouting structure, a feed pipe 4, a drive structure, and a push structure.

[0007] Optionally, in some embodiments, the feed pipe 4 includes a main pipe 41 and a flexible hose 42.

[0008] Optionally, in some embodiments, the grouting structure includes a limiting cylinder 7 and a grouting pipe 8. The limiting cylinder 7 is installed inside the sinker 1 and corresponds to the through hole 3. One end of the grouting pipe 8 is slidably connected to the limiting cylinder 7, and the other end is connected to the hose 42.

[0011] The technical solution provided in this application may include the following beneficial effects:
[0012] During grouting, the drive motor in this application rotates the threaded rod, causing the internal threaded assembly to move stably along the limiting guide rod. This, in turn, causes the pushing block in the pushing structure to rise. Its inclined surface causes the roller to drive the grouting pipe outward along the limiting cylinder and precisely insert it into the grouting hole of the shaft, achieving efficient and precise grout injection.

[0025] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a consolidation grouting reinforcement structure for water intake shafts. This structure solves the problems caused by improper fit between the sinker and the shaft wall in traditional methods, avoids grout waste, significantly improves grouting efficiency, ensures effective reinforcement of weak geological layers, and reduces construction difficulty.
[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] See Figure 1-4The consolidation and grouting reinforcement structure of the water intake shaft includes a sinker 1, a grouting structure, a feed pipe 4, a drive structure, and a push structure. The top of the sinker 1 is equipped with a lifting lug 2, and through holes 3 are arrayed and perforated on the wall surface of the sinker 1. The grouting structure is set inside the sinker 1 and is configured to cooperate with the through holes 3. The end of the feed pipe 4 passes through from the top of the sinker 1 to the inside of the sinker 1 and is connected to the grouting structure. The drive structure is installed inside the sinker 1 and is used to push the grouting structure out of the through holes 3 for grouting. The push structure is connected to the drive structure and is installed in cooperation with the grouting structure.
[0028] During construction, when encountering weak geological layers in the shaft, several lifting lugs 2 fixedly installed at the top of the sinker 1 are first used to connect to a hoisting device. Since the sinker 1 is smaller than the inner wall of the shaft, the hoisting device slowly lowers the sinker 1 to the designated position within the shaft. Next, the end of the feed pipe 4 is connected to an external delivery pump, which is then started to allow grout to enter the grouting structure inside the sinker 1 through the feed pipe 4. Simultaneously, the drive structure installed inside the sinker 1 is activated. This drive structure, through a pushing mechanism located on its side and the grouting structure, applies force to the grouting structure, causing it to move and insert into the grouting hole in the shaft. With the continuous operation of the delivery pump, grout is continuously injected into the grouting hole, thereby reinforcing the weak geological layer and improving construction efficiency.
[0029] In some embodiments, the feed pipe 4 includes a main pipe 41 and a flexible hose 42. The bottom surface of the main pipe 41 is sealed and fixedly connected to the top of the sinker 1. The flexible hose 42 is uniformly installed on the circumferential wall at the bottom of the main pipe 41 and is connected to the grouting structure.
[0030] During operation, when the consolidation grouting reinforcement work of the water intake shaft is carried out, firstly, the external grout is transported to the main pipe 41 in the feed pipe 4. The main pipe 41 is kept stable because its bottom end is fixedly connected to the top of the sink cylinder 1. Then, several hoses 42 connected to the wall of the main pipe 41 will disperse the grout flowing from the main pipe 41. Each hose 42 is responsible for the task of evenly distributing the grout, ensuring that the grout can enter the subsequent grouting process in a more reasonable way, thereby providing a stable and uniform grout supply for the entire water intake shaft consolidation grouting reinforcement work, ensuring the smooth progress and quality of the grouting reinforcement work.
[0031] In some embodiments, the grouting structure includes a limiting cylinder 7 and a grouting pipe 8. The limiting cylinder 7 is installed inside the sinker 1 and corresponds to the through hole 3. One end of the grouting pipe 8 is slidably connected to the limiting cylinder 7, and the other end is connected to the hose 42.
[0032] During the grouting reinforcement operation of the water intake shaft, the grout delivered by the feed pipe 4 first enters the grouting pipe 8 through the hose 42. At this time, the limiting cylinder 7, which is installed inside the sink cylinder 1 and coaxial with the through hole 3, plays a role. Since the grouting pipe 8 is inserted into the limiting cylinder 7 in a horizontal direction, it can move horizontally along the axis of the limiting cylinder 7 when subjected to external driving force, thereby accurately aligning with the position of the through hole 3. Under the push of the driving structure and the pushing mechanism, the grouting pipe 8 moves further and its end is inserted into the grouting hole of the shaft through the through hole 3. Then, the grout flowing from the hose 42 is injected into the grouting hole of the shaft through the grouting pipe 8, completing the grouting reinforcement operation of the water intake shaft. The number and specific layout of the through hole 3 and the grouting pipe 8 can be set according to the actual situation.
[0033] In some embodiments, the drive structure includes a drive motor 9, a threaded rod 10, and an internal threaded assembly 11. The drive motor 9 is installed at the bottom end of the inner side of the sinker 1. The bottom end of the threaded rod 10 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the drive motor 9 and is coaxially arranged with the sinker 1. The internal threaded assembly 11 is screwed onto the outer side of the outer wall of the threaded rod 10. A limiting guide rod 13 is installed at the bottom end of the sinker 1. The top end of the limiting guide rod 13 is inserted into the internal threaded assembly 11 and is movably connected to the internal threaded assembly 11. The push structure is installed on the outer side of the internal threaded assembly 11.
[0034] During operation, in the grouting process, the drive motor 9, installed at the bottom inner side of the sinker 1, is first started. After the drive motor 9 starts running, its drive end drives the threaded rod 10, which is fixedly connected to it and coaxially arranged with the sinker 1, to start rotating. As the threaded rod 10 rotates, the internal threaded fitting 11, screwed to the outer wall of its outer side, moves along the axial direction of the threaded rod 10 due to the action of the threads. The movement process provides power to the subsequent push structure connected to it, enabling the entire grouting reinforcement process to proceed in an orderly manner according to the predetermined steps, thereby ensuring the effective reinforcement of the weak geological layer of the water intake shaft and improving the stability and safety of the shaft. When the drive motor 9 starts and drives the threaded rod 10 to rotate, the internal threaded fitting 11, screwed to the outer wall of the threaded rod 10, begins to move along the axial direction of the threaded rod 10. At the same time, several limiting guide rods 13 installed at the bottom of the sinker 1 function, with their top ends inserted into the internal threaded fitting 11 and movably connected to it. When the internal threaded assembly 11 moves under the drive of the threaded rod 10, the limiting guide rod 13 can limit and guide the internal threaded assembly 11, ensuring that the internal threaded assembly 11 can only move stably in the direction defined by the limiting guide rod 13, avoiding deviation or shaking during the movement, thereby ensuring that the internal threaded assembly 11 can accurately transmit power to other connected structures, thus ensuring the accuracy and stability of the entire water intake shaft consolidation grouting reinforcement operation, and enabling the grouting reinforcement work to be carried out smoothly and efficiently.
[0035] In some embodiments, the pushing structure includes a pushing block 12, a mounting seat 6, and a roller 5. The pushing blocks 12 are arranged in an array on the outer side of the outer wall of the internal threaded assembly 11. An inclined surface is provided on the pushing blocks 12. The mounting seat 6 is fixedly mounted on the end of the grouting pipe 8. The roller 5 is rotatably mounted on the mounting seat 6 and overlaps with the internal threaded assembly 11 and the pushing blocks 12.
[0036] During operation, when the drive motor 9 rotates and drives the threaded rod 10 to rotate, the internal threaded assembly 11 moves upward along the threaded rod 10. Simultaneously, the array of push blocks 12 distributed on the outer side of the outer wall of the internal threaded assembly 11 also moves upward. Since the push blocks 12 have inclined surfaces, as they move upward, the rollers 5 roll along these inclined surfaces. During this process, the rollers 5 are subjected to lateral thrust from the inclined surfaces, which is transmitted to the grouting pipe 8. This causes the grouting pipe 8 to move horizontally towards the through hole 3 under the constraint of the limiting cylinder 7. This allows the end of the grouting pipe 8 to be accurately inserted into the grouting hole of the shaft, preparing for subsequent grouting operations. This ensures the stable and efficient operation of the entire water intake shaft's consolidation grouting reinforcement structure, effectively reinforcing the weak geological layer of the shaft.
