Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of retaining wall technology, specifically relating to a gabion retaining wall device. Background Technology
[0002] Gabion retaining walls are a new type of flexible retaining material made by filling qualified stones into flexible gabion mesh, creating a certain porosity, and stacking them layer by layer. Due to their low cost, good ecological properties, and strong applicability, they are increasingly used. However, most current gabion retaining walls are constructed by directly binding the gabion mesh into cages using wire wrapping. This results in loose connections between the gabion cages and easy deformation of the sides. During the stone filling and stacking process, the connections and sides of the gabion cages are subjected to pressure, easily leading to disintegration and the collapse of the entire gabion retaining wall. Furthermore, the connections between adjacent gabion cages are mostly secured with tie wire, which is not strong enough and prone to breakage. This results in poor stability of the entire gabion retaining wall, also contributing to potential collapse accidents. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings in the existing technology, the present invention provides a gabion retaining wall device to solve the problems in the background technology.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A gabion retaining wall device includes four support columns, each with a right-angled triangle on its top and bottom surfaces and rectangular sides. Two strip plates, designated as a first strip plate and a second strip plate, connect adjacent support columns. The first strip plate is connected to the upper part of the support column, and the second strip plate is connected to the lower part of the support column. In this configuration, the four support columns, the four first strip plates, and the four second strip plates form a frame. Gabion mesh is connected to all six sides of the frame. A first positioning connecting plate is provided on one outer side of each support column, and a second positioning connecting plate is provided on the other outer side. The gabion mesh is sandwiched between the first and second positioning connecting plates.
[0006] Preferably, a support plate is installed between the two adjacent support columns and their outer sides. The support plate is inside the gabion mesh. The support plate is placed at an angle and contacts the first strip plate and the second strip plate. The support plate forms a mirror Z-shape with the first strip plate and the second strip plate. There is a support plate on each of the four outer sides of the frame.
[0007] Preferably, the support column has three first threaded holes in the middle of one outer side, arranged in a straight line at the top, middle, and bottom positions; three second threaded holes in the middle of the other outer side, also arranged in a straight line at the top, middle, and bottom positions; a third threaded hole in the middle of both the top and bottom surfaces of the support column; a fourth threaded hole in the middle of the first strip plate; a fifth threaded hole in the middle of the second strip plate; and a sixth threaded hole in the middle of the support plate; the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth threaded holes are all matched with the provided bolts.
[0008] Preferably, the first positioning connecting plate has three first mating holes and two protrusions in the middle. The first mating holes are composed of a seventh threaded hole and a first bolt head hole. The seventh threaded hole is the same as the first threaded hole, and the first bolt head hole matches the bolt head hole of the bolt. The first bolt head hole is outside the seventh threaded hole. The first mating holes are arranged in a straight line in the upper, middle and lower positions. The two protrusions are interspersed with the first mating holes. The second positioning connecting plate has three second mating holes and two grooves. The second mating holes are composed of an eighth threaded hole and a second bolt head hole. The eighth threaded hole matches the second threaded hole, and the second bolt head hole matches the bolt head hole of the bolt. The second mating holes are arranged in a straight line in the upper, middle and lower positions. The two grooves are interspersed with the second mating holes. The two protrusions are adapted to the two grooves.
[0009] Preferably, one outer side of the support column is detachably connected to the gabion mesh and the first positioning connecting plate, and bolts are sequentially inserted into the first mating hole, the gabion mesh, and the first threaded hole, with the bolt head inside the first bolt head hole. The other outer side of the support column is also detachably connected to the gabion mesh and the second positioning connecting plate, and bolts are sequentially inserted into the second mating hole, the gabion mesh, and the second threaded hole, with the bolt head inside the second bolt head hole. The top and bottom surfaces of the support column are detachably connected to the gabion mesh, and bolts are sequentially inserted into the fourth positioning block, the gabion mesh, and the third threaded hole.
[0010] Preferably, the first strip plate and the gabion mesh are detachably connected, and bolts are sequentially inserted into the first positioning block, the gabion mesh, and the fourth threaded hole; the second strip plate and the gabion mesh are detachably connected, and bolts are sequentially inserted into the second positioning block, the gabion mesh, and the fifth threaded hole.
[0011] Preferably, the support plate and the gabion mesh are detachably connected, and bolts are sequentially inserted into the third positioning block, the gabion mesh, and the sixth threaded hole.
[0012] Preferably, a cylindrical cone is installed next to the right angle on the bottom surface of the support column, and the cylindrical cone is adjacent to the third threaded hole.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0014] 1. This gabion retaining wall device, through the arrangement of a first positioning connecting plate, a second positioning connecting plate, all positioning blocks, a support plate, and threaded connections, can more firmly fix the gabion body to the outer surface of the frame during use. Furthermore, the gabion body can be tensioned during fixing, making it less prone to deformation. This prevents the gabion cage from disintegrating, deforming laterally, and causing the entire wall to collapse. The cylindrical cone design also ensures a tighter contact between the support column frame and the ground, improving the stability of a single gabion cage.
[0015] 2. This gabion retaining wall device, through the setting of a first positioning connecting plate, a second positioning connecting plate, protrusions, grooves, and mating holes, can accurately connect adjacent gabion cages during use, so that multiple adjacent gabion cages are tightly connected to form a retaining wall. After the adjacent gabion cages are squeezed by the filling stones, the connection between multiple adjacent gabion cages is made tighter, improving the stability of the entire retaining wall. Furthermore, after the adjacent gabion cages are squeezed by the filling stones, the first positioning connecting plate and the second positioning connecting plate also have an inward pushing pressure, making the gabion body more firmly fixed to the outer surface of the frame.

[0029] Example 1: As Figure 1-8 As shown, this utility model discloses a gabion retaining wall device. Specifically, the gabion retaining wall device includes four support columns 1. The top and bottom surfaces of the four support columns 1 are both right-angled triangles, and the two sides are both rectangles. Two strip plates, namely a first strip plate 2 and a second strip plate 3, are connected between two adjacent support columns 1. The first strip plate 2 is connected to the upper part of the support column 1, and the second strip plate 3 is connected to the lower part of the support column 1. In this way, the four support columns 1, the four first strip plates 2, and the four second strip plates 3 cooperate to form a frame. Gabion mesh 4 is connected to all six sides of the frame. A first positioning connecting plate 12 is provided on one outer side of the support column 1, and a second positioning connecting plate 13 is provided on the other outer side. The gabion mesh 4 is sandwiched between the first positioning connecting plate 12 and the second positioning connecting plate 13.
[0030] Support plates 5 are installed between the outer sides of two adjacent support columns 1. The support plates 5 are located inside the gabion mesh 4, are placed at an angle, and contact the first strip plate 2 and the second strip plate 3. The support plates 5 form a mirrored Z-shape with the first strip plate 2 and the second strip plate 3. Each of the four outer sides of the frame has a support plate 5. The support plates 5 effectively prevent deformation of the gabion mesh cage's sides due to the filling with stones, reduce the tensile force at the connection between the gabion mesh 4 and the support column frame, and ensure a tighter connection between the gabion mesh 4 and the support column frame.
[0031] Among them, the support column 1 has three first threaded holes 6 in the middle of one outer side, and the three first threaded holes 6 are arranged in a straight line in the upper, middle and lower positions. The other outer side also has three second threaded holes 7 in the middle, and the three second threaded holes 7 are arranged in a straight line in the upper, middle and lower positions. The support column 1 has a third threaded hole 8 in the middle of both the top and bottom surfaces. The first strip plate 2 has a fourth threaded hole 9 in the middle. The second strip plate 3 has a fifth threaded hole 10 in the middle. The support plate 5 has a sixth threaded hole 11 in the middle. The first threaded holes 6, second threaded holes 7, third threaded holes 8, fourth threaded holes 9, fifth threaded holes 10 and sixth threaded holes 11 are all matched with the bolts 20.
[0032] The first positioning connecting plate 12 has three first mating holes 1415 and two protrusions 16 in the middle. The first mating holes 1415 are composed of a seventh threaded hole 14 and a first bolt head hole 15. The seventh threaded hole 14 is the same as the first threaded hole 6. The first bolt head hole 15 matches the bolt head hole of the bolt 20 and is outside the seventh threaded hole 14. The first mating holes 1415 are arranged in a straight line in the upper, middle and lower positions. The two protrusions 16 are interspersed with the first mating holes 1415. The second positioning connecting plate 13 has three second mating holes 1718 and two grooves 19. The second mating holes 1718 are composed of an eighth threaded hole 17 and a second bolt head hole 18. The eighth threaded hole 17 matches the second threaded hole 7. The second bolt head hole 18 matches the bolt head hole of the bolt 20. The second mating holes 1718 are arranged in a straight line in the upper, middle and lower positions. The two grooves 19 are interspersed with the second mating holes 1718. The two protrusions 16 are adapted to the two grooves 19. The protrusions and grooves allow for precise connection of adjacent gabion cages, enabling multiple adjacent gabion cages to form a retaining wall. Simultaneously, the matching of the first bolt head hole 15 with the bolt head hole of bolt 20, and the matching of the second bolt head hole 18 with the bolt head hole of bolt 20, ensures that when multiple adjacent gabion cages are connected, the first positioning connecting plate 2 and the second positioning connecting plate 3 fit and press together, making the connection between adjacent gabion cages tighter and improving the stability of the entire gabion retaining wall.
[0033] Among them, one outer side of the support column 1 is detachably connected to the gabion mesh 4 and the first positioning connecting plate 12, and the bolts 20 are sequentially inserted into the first mating hole 1415, the gabion mesh 4 and the first threaded hole 6, with the bolt head of the bolt 20 inside the first bolt head hole 15. The other outer side of the support column 1 is also detachably connected to the gabion mesh 4 and the second positioning connecting plate 13, and the bolts 20 are sequentially inserted into the second mating hole 1718, the gabion mesh 4 and the second threaded hole 7, with the bolt head of the bolt 20 inside the second bolt head hole 18. The top and bottom surfaces of the support column 1 are detachably connected to the gabion mesh 4, and the bolts 20 are sequentially inserted into the fourth positioning block 24, the gabion mesh 4 and the third threaded hole 8.
[0034] The first strip plate 2 is detachably connected to the gabion mesh 4, and is inserted into the first positioning block 21, the gabion mesh 4 and the fourth threaded hole 9 in sequence by bolts 20; the second strip plate 3 is detachably connected to the gabion mesh 4, and is inserted into the second positioning block 22, the gabion mesh 4 and the fifth threaded hole 10 in sequence by bolts 20.
[0035] The support plate 5 and the gabion mesh 4 are detachably connected, and the bolts 20 are inserted sequentially into the third positioning block 23, the gabion mesh 4 and the sixth threaded hole 11.
[0036] Each support column 1 has a cylindrical cone 25 installed next to the right angle on its bottom surface, adjacent to the third threaded hole 8. The cylindrical cone 25 can be inserted into the ground, making the support column frame more firmly connected to the ground.
[0037] In summary, the present invention enables the gabion mesh to be more tightly connected to the supporting column frame, making it less prone to deformation and preventing disintegration that could lead to the collapse of the entire wall. At the same time, it makes the connection between the supporting column frame and the ground, as well as between multiple adjacent gabion cages, more compact, thereby improving the stability of the entire retaining wall.
[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
