Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of geocells, and more particularly to a geocell with winglets. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of civil engineering, geocells, as a new type of geosynthetic material structure, are widely used in various engineering scenarios such as slope stabilization, roadbed reinforcement, and foundation treatment. Traditional geocells are usually composed of a series of cell sheets connected by nodes to form a three-dimensional structure. This structure can effectively limit the lateral deformation of the soil and improve the overall stability and bearing capacity of the soil.
[0003] However, in practical applications, traditional geocells have also revealed some shortcomings. Particularly in slope stabilization projects, due to the natural gravity of the slope soil and rainwater erosion, soil can easily flow down the slope from the bottom of the geocell, affecting the stability of the geocell structure. Furthermore, in roadbed reinforcement projects, traditional geocells have limited bottom bearing capacity under large loads and poor lateral displacement control, potentially impacting the overall stability and safety of the roadbed.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the market for a geocell structure that can overcome the above-mentioned defects and improve slope stability and roadbed bearing capacity. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a geocell with winglets to solve the technical problems of poor structural stability and water-resistant soil loss performance of traditional geocells.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: to provide a geocell with winglets, wherein the geocell with winglets comprises:
[0007] A plurality of compartment panels, and nodes disposed on the compartment panels for connecting adjacent compartment panels, wherein the compartment panels are provided with winglets.
[0008] In one embodiment, the wing is located at the bottom of the grid plate.
[0009] In one embodiment, the wing and the grid plate are integrally molded.
[0010] In one embodiment, the wing is fixed to the cell plate by welding.
[0011] In one embodiment, the winglet is provided with a hole.
[0012] The above-described technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model have at least the following technical effects or advantages:
[0013] The geocell with winglets provided in this embodiment effectively controls soil loss down the slope from the bottom of the geocell by incorporating winglets on the geocell panels. The winglet design not only increases the contact area between the geocell and the soil but also provides additional resistance to prevent soil erosion, thus significantly improving slope stability. Furthermore, the winglets assist in anchoring the geocell and controlling its slippage. In slope or roadbed engineering, the winglets can penetrate deep into the soil, providing additional anchoring force to ensure the geocell structure remains stable under external forces. In roadbed reinforcement engineering, the geocell with winglets increases the bearing capacity at the bottom of the geocell. The winglet design makes the contact between the bottom of the geocell and the soil closer, effectively distributing the load and improving the overall bearing capacity of the roadbed. Finally, the winglets also provide friction, reducing lateral displacement of the geocell. Under lateral force, the friction between the winglets and the soil resists lateral movement of the geocell, ensuring the stability of the roadbed or slope. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 2 This application provides a geocell with flanges 2, comprising a plurality of geocell panels 1 and nodes 3 disposed on the geocell panels 1 for connecting adjacent geocell panels 1. The geocell panels 1 are provided with flanges 2. The flanges 2 effectively control the loss of slope soil from the bottom of the geocell down the slope surface, while also assisting in anchoring the geocell and enhancing its stability. In roadbed reinforcement applications, the flanges 2 increase the bearing capacity at the bottom of the geocell and provide additional friction, effectively reducing the lateral displacement of the geocell.
[0024] The cell panel 1 can be made of non-metallic materials (such as high-density polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.) or metallic materials (such as steel or aluminum alloy, etc.). The specific structure and material of the cell panel 1 can be freely changed according to specific usage requirements, and there are no restrictions here. Node 3 is used to connect adjacent cell panels 1. The connection method of node 3 can be one or a combination of mechanical fastening such as riveting and welding. The specific structure of node 3 can be freely designed according to requirements.
[0025] In one embodiment, the flange 2 is located at the bottom of the cell plate 1. By placing the flange 2 at the bottom of the cell plate 1, the loss of slope soil from the bottom of the cell down the slope surface can be controlled more effectively. At the same time, the flange 2 at the bottom can also provide better anchoring, enhance the stability of the cell in the soil, and prevent cell slippage.
[0026] In one embodiment, the winglet 2 and the cell plate 1 are integrally molded. This integral molding structure makes the connection between the winglet 2 and the cell plate 1 more robust, preventing the winglet 2 from detaching or being damaged during use due to a weak connection. This structure also simplifies the manufacturing process, improves production efficiency, and reduces costs.
[0027] In one embodiment, the wing 2 is fixed to the cell plate 1 by welding. Fixing the wing 2 to the cell plate 1 by welding can ensure the connection strength between the wing 2 and the cell plate 1, making the entire geocell structure more stable.
[0028] In one embodiment, the wing 2 is provided with holes 21. Providing holes 21 on the wing 2 increases the friction between the wing 2 and the soil, improving the anchoring effect of the geocell in the soil. Simultaneously, the holes 21 also serve as drainage channels, facilitating the removal of moisture from the soil and preventing soil softening due to moisture accumulation, further enhancing the stability of the geocell. Furthermore, the design of the holes 21 can reduce the weight of the wing 2, lowering material costs.
[0029] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
