Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bored pile construction technology, and in particular to a device for controlling over-pouring of pile foundation concrete. Background Technology

[0002] Mud-wall bored piles are constructed by slowly drilling with a pile driver under mud-wall conditions, using mud to carry out the drill cuttings and protect the borehole wall from collapse. After the borehole is formed, underwater concrete is poured using a guide pipe to replace the mud.

[0003] During underwater concrete pouring for pile foundations, when sealing the bottom, the first batch of concrete flows out of the tremie pipe and spreads around the bottom of the hole, mixing with sediment and mud inside the hole to form a thin layer of laitance. The first poured concrete is always on top of this layer, eventually solidifying at the pile top into a mixed layer of laitance, mud, and other materials. This mixed layer and the underlying inferior concrete layer have low strength and should be removed. When the laitance layer is at the pile top, the concrete pouring height must be controlled to ensure the pile strength at the design elevation.

[0004] Due to factors such as incomplete removal of sediment at the bottom of the borehole, poor geological conditions, and excessively high density of mud inside the borehole, traditional manual measurement using a conical hammer to measure the concrete surface is problematic. Because the conical hammer is heavy and applies high pressure, and the concrete contains fewer aggregates and has a large slump when poured to the top, individual feel varies, leading to significant measurement errors. This is especially true for piles where the top is less than 5 meters below ground level, where measurement errors are even greater. Relying on experience can easily result in over-pouring of concrete, wasting materials and increasing costs. Utility Model Content

[0024] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other. For ease of description, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" appearing below only indicate that they correspond to the upper, lower, left, and right directions in the accompanying drawings and do not limit the structure.

[0025] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a device for controlling over-pouring of concrete in pile foundations according to this embodiment includes a left support 1 and a right support 2. Both the left support 1 and the right support 2 are sleepers.

[0026] A support rod 3 is provided between the top center of the left support 1 and the right support 2. In this embodiment, the support rod is made of a 340x40x2mm rectangular steel tube, and a hole with a diameter of 25mm is drilled on the top and bottom of the center position of the square steel tube.

[0027] The support rod 3 has a suspension structure 5 in the middle, and a weighing device is connected to the bottom of the suspension structure 5. A hanging bucket 8 is connected to the bottom of the weighing device, and a through hole is opened on the side wall of the hanging bucket 8.

[0028] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, both the left support 1 and the right support 2 have a limiting structure 4 at the top center to restrict the rotation of the support rod 3. The limiting structure 4 is a set of rivets. The rivets are made of round steel bars with a diameter of 20mm, and the spacing between the rivets is 5-10mm larger than the outer diameter of the support rod.

[0029] like Figures 1-4As shown, in this embodiment, the support rod 3 has a vertically penetrating connecting hole in its middle. The suspension structure 5 includes a hook, the top of which has a threaded connecting section. The threaded connecting section passes through the connecting hole from bottom to top and is threaded with a nut. Specifically, the suspension structure is made of bent steel bars with a diameter of 20mm, the ends of which are threaded and fixed to the connecting rod with hexagonal nuts.

[0030] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, the weighing device includes a suspended electronic scale 6 and a measuring rope 7 that are assembled and connected. The top of the suspended electronic scale 6 is provided with a hanging ring, which is connected to the bottom of the suspension structure 5. The bottom of the suspended electronic scale 6 is provided with a hook, on which the measuring rope 7 is connected. The bottom end of the measuring rope 7 is connected to the hanging bucket 8.

[0031] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the hanging bucket 8 includes a bucket body 81, with a handle 82 at the top of the bucket body 81, which is connected to the bottom of the weighing device. Reinforcing ribs 83 are fixedly provided on the outer wall of the bucket body 81. Specifically, the bucket body is made of a seamless round steel tube with an outer diameter of 219mm, a wall thickness of 8mm, and a length of 30cm. The bottom of the round steel tube is sealed by welding with a steel plate with a thickness of 8mm and a diameter of 219mm. Four rows of 6mm through holes are symmetrically opened around the bucket body. The reinforcing ribs are four 25mm diameter round steel bars evenly welded around the bucket body.

[0032] Before installing the device of this embodiment, first connect the suspended electronic scale to the measuring rope, then connect the measuring rope to the hanging bucket. Next, suspend the electronic scale or manually measure the weight G1 of the hanging bucket. Then, slowly place the hanging bucket into the container (box) containing the pile foundation slurry layer liquid, allowing the slurry layer liquid to enter the hanging bucket through the through-hole in the side wall. Then, suspend the electronic scale or manually measure the weight G2 of the hanging bucket at this point. Finally, slowly place the hanging bucket into the container (box) containing the pile foundation concrete, allowing some of the liquid from the pile foundation concrete to enter the hanging bucket through the through-hole in the side wall. Then, suspend the electronic scale or manually measure the weight G3 of the hanging bucket at this point.

[0033] The method of using this utility model device is as follows: Place left support 1 and right support 2 parallel to each other on both sides of the steel casing 9, ensuring that left support 1 and right support 2 are higher than the top surface of the steel casing. Then, place a support rod 3 on the left support 1 and right support 2, perpendicular to them. Symmetrically install two sets of limiting rivets 4 on the upper surfaces of the left and right supports, with the rivet spacing 5-10mm larger than the outer diameter of the support rod 3. Then, thread the top of the suspension structure 5 through the hole at the center of the support rod and fix it with hexagonal bolts. Hang the hanging ring of the electronic scale 6 on the suspension structure 5. Then, tie the top of the measuring rope to the hook of the electronic scale, calculate the length of the measuring rope, and suspend the bucket at the designed elevation of the pile hole concrete. Manually read the changes in the value of the suspended electronic scale in real time during the pile foundation concrete pouring process. When the reading of the suspended electronic scale is G1, the bucket is above the laitance layer. When the reading of the suspended electronic scale is in the G2-G1 range, the bottom of the bucket is in the laitance layer. When the reading on the suspended electronic scale is less than G2, the bottom of the bucket is in contact with the concrete layer, and the concrete in the pile hole has reached the design elevation. Concrete pouring should be stopped immediately to avoid over-pouring of concrete.

[0034] The device in this embodiment can determine the relative position of the bottom of the bucket to the concrete pouring surface by measuring the weight change of the bucket in real time using an electronic scale. This device is simple to operate, easy to assemble and disassemble, and inexpensive. It can precisely control the over-pouring thickness of concrete by quantifying data, avoiding errors caused by traditional manual measurements based on experience. This guides actual construction, saves materials, and improves the quality of pile foundations.

[0035] The above embodiments should be understood as being used only to illustrate the present invention more clearly, and not to limit the scope of the present invention. After reading the present invention, any modifications of the embodiments by those skilled in the art in various equivalent forms fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
