[0020] The technical solutions in the utility model are further described below with reference to the drawings and examples.

[0021] As Figures 1 to 5 shown in the utility model embodiment, a high-pressure karst water-rich large-section highway tunnel water discharge and pressure reduction device is provided, which comprises pressure reduction assemblies arranged in mirror image along the tunnel axis and a drainage unit communicated with the two pressure reduction assemblies, and the drainage unit is used for discharging water generated by the two pressure reduction assemblies, wherein each pressure reduction assembly comprises: a pressure control unit, which comprises a gravel blind ditch 5 arranged at the tunnel wall foot and extending away from the tunnel axis and a water collecting pipe 6 arranged in the gravel blind ditch 5, and the water collecting pipe 6 is connected with a water pressure valve 1 at one end close to the tunnel, the water collecting pipe 6 is used for collecting water sources in the rock stratum, and the water pressure valve 1 is used for releasing water pressure; and a stable unit, which comprises a plurality of positioning ribs 2 uniformly distributed on the side of the water pressure valve 1 and a plurality of locking anchor rods 4 arranged obliquely, and the ends of each positioning rib 2 and each locking anchor rod 4 away from the water pressure valve 1 are both deeply buried in the rock stratum through concrete.

[0022] The detailed working process of the embodiment is as follows: the gravel blind ditch 5 extending away from the tunnel axis and the water collecting pipe 6 inside are arranged at the tunnel wall foot, which can fully utilize the special geological position of the tunnel wall foot, the gravel blind ditch 5 extends to the deep part and is connected with the surrounding rock fissure 9, realizing hydraulic connection and accurately collecting abundant water sources in the rock stratum; the water pressure valve 1 connected at one end of the water collecting pipe 6 close to the tunnel can intelligently release water pressure according to the water pressure, and automatically opens the drainage when the water pressure reaches a certain degree, effectively reducing the threat of water pressure in the rock stratum to the tunnel lining structure, avoiding the lining structure being broken and damaged due to excessively high water pressure, and ensuring the safety of the tunnel.

[0023] The positioning rib 2 and the locking anchor rod 4 in the stable unit cooperate with each other; the plurality of positioning ribs 2 uniformly distributed on the side of the water pressure valve 1 can preliminarily position and support the water pressure valve 1 from different directions, so that the water pressure valve 1 remains stable during the drainage process. The locking anchor rod 4 arranged obliquely cooperates with the positioning rib 2, is deeply buried in the rock stratum through concrete, greatly enhances the connection strength between the water pressure valve 1 and the rock stratum, ensures that the pressure control unit is still stable under the impact of high-pressure water flow and complex geological conditions, continuously plays the drainage and pressure relief function, and further ensures the long-term stable operation of the tunnel in the karst water-rich section.

[0024] The water pressure valve 1 used in the embodiment is an electronic intelligent valve, and the pressure threshold of the water pressure valve 1 is set according to actual needs, which is set to 0.6-0.8 MPa in the embodiment. When the water pressure exceeds the threshold, the valve is opened, the karst water is introduced into the drainage unit, and automatic water drainage and pressure reduction are realized.

[0025] As shown in Figure 2 With Figure 3 As shown, the gravel blind ditch 5 is cylindrical and extends away from the tunnel axis, and the axis of the water collecting pipe 6 overlaps the axis of the gravel blind ditch 5.

[0026] The detailed working process of the embodiment is: the gravel blind ditch 5 with a cylindrical structure is more uniform in stress, and is less likely to be deformed and damaged due to water pressure under the condition of high-pressure water-rich geology, thereby ensuring the smoothness of the drainage passage. Extending away from the tunnel axis can expand the water collection range and fully collect water sources in different areas around the tunnel, thereby providing sufficient water flow source for subsequent water drainage and pressure reduction. Meanwhile, the design of overlapping the axis of the water collecting pipe 6 with the axis of the gravel blind ditch 5 enables the water collecting pipe 6 to make the most of the water collection space in the gravel blind ditch 5.

[0027] The diameter of the gravel blind ditch 5 in the embodiment is 0.3-0.4 m, and the length of the water collecting pipe 6 is 6-10 m.

[0028] As shown in Figure 3 A plurality of groups of through holes are uniformly distributed on the side of the water collecting pipe 6.

[0029] The detailed working process of the embodiment is: by providing a plurality of groups of through holes on the side of the water collecting pipe 6, the water collection range of the water collecting pipe 6 is widened, so that the water collecting pipe 6 can introduce water from any direction into the pipe in time, thereby effectively improving the collection efficiency of the water collecting pipe 6 for water sources in the rock stratum and providing sufficient water quantity guarantee for subsequent release of water pressure by the water pressure valve 1 and reduction of pressure on the lining structure.

[0030] As shown in Figure 4 And Figure 5 As shown, the plurality of positioning ribs 2 are perpendicular to each other and located in the same plane.

[0031] The detailed working process of the embodiment is: the perpendicular arrangement of the positioning ribs 2 can constrain the water pressure valve 1 from multiple directions. When high-pressure water flow impacts the water pressure valve 1 through the water collecting pipe 6, displacement or shaking of the water pressure valve 1 can be prevented.

[0032] As shown in Figure 5 Each locking anchor rod 4 forms a 45° angle with the corresponding positioning rib 2.

[0033] The detailed working process of the embodiment is that the 45° angle forms a stable triangular structure among the positioning rib 2, the locking anchor rod 4 and the rock stratum. The triangle has stability and can effectively resist the force from different directions. When the water pressure valve 1 is subjected to the water flow pressure and other external forces, the triangular structure can uniformly disperse the force into the rock stratum, reduce the deformation and displacement of the device, and thus improve the stability of the entire device; meanwhile, when the force acts on the water pressure valve 1, the locking anchor rod 4 with the 45° angle with the positioning rib 2 can disperse the force along the direction of the locking anchor rod 4 into the rock stratum. Due to the inclination angle of the locking anchor rod 4, the force forms a relatively extensive distribution area in the rock stratum in the transmission process, avoids the local concentration of the force, reduces the damage to the rock stratum, and also improves the stability and reliability of the device itself.

[0034] In the embodiment, the locking anchor rod 4 is an R25 hollow grouting anchor rod with a length of 2.0-3.0 m.

[0035] As shown in Figure 1 , the drainage unit includes drainage pipes 7 connected with the corresponding water pressure valves 1 respectively and a central drainage ditch 8 arranged at the bottom of the tunnel, and the ends of the drainage pipes 7 away from the corresponding water pressure valves 1 are in communication with the central drainage ditch 8.

[0036] As shown in Figure 1 , the central drainage ditch 8 extends along the length direction of the tunnel.

[0037] The detailed working process of the embodiment is that the direct connection of the drainage pipe 7 with the water pressure valve 1 can provide a direct and efficient drainage channel for the high-pressure water flow at the moment of opening the water pressure valve 1 for pressure relief, can avoid the gathering and overflowing of the water flow, and reduce the impact on the surrounding structure. Meanwhile, under the arrangement of the central drainage ditch 8, the drainage pipe 7 converges the water discharged from the water pressure valve 1 to the central drainage ditch 8, utilizes the characteristic that the central drainage ditch 8 extends along the length direction of the tunnel, orderly discharges the water from the tunnel, completes the entire drainage and pressure relief process, and ensures that the high-pressure water does not accumulate in the tunnel.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 , the water collecting pipe 6 is made of a seamless steel pipe.

[0039] The detailed working process of the embodiment is that the seamless steel pipe has the characteristic of high strength, can effectively resist such high pressure, prevent the problems such as pipe wall rupture and deformation caused by excessive pressure, can maintain a more stable structure when bearing the same pressure, and ensures that the water source continuously and stably flows into the water collecting pipe 6, providing reliable guarantee for the subsequent water discharge and pressure relief process.

[0040] In the embodiment, the water collecting pipe 6 is made of a seamless steel pipe with a diameter of 108 mm and a wall thickness of 6 mm.

[0041] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the application is: first, according to the actual situation, a gravel blind ditch 5 is arranged at a required position, one end of a water collecting pipe 6 connected with the water pressure valve 1 is arranged in the gravel blind ditch 5, then the water pressure valve 1 is fixed through the positioning rib 2 and the locking anchor rod 4, the pressure threshold of the water pressure valve 1 is arranged according to the actual situation, the water pressure valve 1 is connected with a drain pipe 7, finally the drain pipe 7 is arranged in a central drainage ditch 8, and the drainage pressure relief function can be realized.

[0042] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not limiting. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application, and all should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
