[0004] However, the water inlet elevation of the water inlet tower is higher than that of the original diversion hole, but since no dredging device is arranged, the emptying hole may be blocked after a long period of operation, thereby finally affecting the normal operation of the reservoir emptying hole. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
[0005] In order to reduce the probability of emptying hole blockage, the application provides a reservoir reconstruction emptying hole structure.
[0006] The reservoir reconstruction emptying hole structure provided by the application adopts the following technical scheme:
[0007] A reservoir reconstruction emptying hole structure comprises a water inlet tower, the water inlet tower is connected with an emptying hole, the emptying hole extends to the downstream side of the dam body and is used for discharging water in the water inlet tower out of the dam body, a sand setting mechanism for setting sand in water is arranged in front of the water inlet tower, and the sand setting mechanism comprises:
[0008] A sand setting pool is arranged in the reservoir;
[0009] A water inlet pipe is arranged on the side wall of the sand setting pool, the water inlet pipe flows water in the reservoir into the sand setting pool in a tangent direction and forms a rotating water flow;
[0010] A sealing cover is arranged on the sand trap and seals the top of the sand trap, and a drain pipe is arranged on the sealing cover and used to drain water on the top of the sand trap into the water intake tower.
[0011] A sand collecting pool is arranged at the bottom of the sand trap and used to collect the sediment in the sand trap.
[0012] A spiral dredging assembly is arranged on the dam body and used to dredge the sand collecting pool.
[0013] By adopting the above technical scheme, the water flow in the water inlet pipe flows into the sand trap in the tangential direction of the sand trap, so as to make the water flow rotate in the sand trap. Under the joint action of gravity and centrifugal force, the sediment is impacted on the side wall of the sand trap and flows into the sand collecting pool along the side wall of the sand trap. The sand collecting pool is dredged by the spiral dredging assembly, so as to ensure the collection of the sediment by the sand collecting pool. Finally, the water flow after the sand trap sedimentation treatment enters the water intake tower through the drain pipe on the sealing cover, so as to reduce the sediment content in the water intake tower and reduce the probability of the blowout hole blockage.
[0014] Further, the sand trap comprises:
[0015] A frame body is arranged on the reservoir;
[0016] An upper section is arranged on the frame body and connected with the water inlet pipe, and the upper section is a cylindrical structure;
[0017] A middle section is coaxially arranged below the upper section through a flange and connected with the frame body, and the middle section is a circular truncated cone structure and the diameter of the side close to the upper section is larger than the diameter of the side away from the upper section;
[0018] A lower section is arranged below the middle section through a flange and connected with the frame body, and the lower section is an inverted conical structure and used to collect the sediment and then drain into the sand collecting pool.
[0019] By adopting the above technical scheme, the upper section, the middle section and the lower section are fixedly installed on the frame body, and the adjacent sections are sealingly connected through the flanges. When any one of the upper section, the middle section and the lower section is damaged, the corresponding section can be replaced, so as to realize the maintenance of the sand trap and improve the maintenance efficiency and reduce the maintenance cost of the sand trap.
[0020] Further, the inner side walls of the upper section, the middle section and the lower section are embedded with wear-resistant ceramic lining plates, which are used to improve the wear resistance of the upper section, the middle section and the lower section.
[0021] By adopting the above technical scheme, the wear-resistant ceramic lining plates embedded and installed on the upper section, the middle section and the lower section improve the wear resistance of the inner side walls of the sand trap, so as to reduce the wear frequency of the sand trap.
[0022] Further, the wear-resistant ceramic lining plate is provided with a plurality of V-shaped grooves on the side close to the inside of the sand pool, and the plurality of V-shaped grooves are arranged in a direction and used for guiding water flow to form orderly laminar flow.
[0023] By adopting the above technical scheme, the plurality of V-shaped grooves are arranged in a direction to guide water flow to form orderly laminar flow along the direction of the V-shaped grooves, and the V-shaped grooves guide water flow to form a local high-speed area to generate scouring force on particles attached to the surface, thereby facilitating the sedimentation of the particles.
[0024] Further, the spiral dredging assembly comprises:
[0025] A sand discharge pipe is arranged on the sand collecting pool and used for discharging the mud sand in the sand collecting pool out of the sand collecting pool;
[0026] A spiral shaft is arranged in the sand discharge pipe in a rotating manner and used for moving the mud sand in the sand discharge pipe;
[0027] A driving member is arranged on the sand discharge pipe and used for driving the spiral shaft to rotate;
[0028] A detection member is arranged on the sand collecting pool and used for detecting the content of the mud sand in the sand collecting pool, and the detection member is electrically connected with the driving member and used for controlling the opening and closing of the driving member.
[0029] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the detection member detects that the amount of mud sand in the sand collecting pool reaches a maximum value, the driving member is started to discharge the mud sand in the sand collecting pool out of the sand collecting pool through the spiral shaft and the sand discharge pipe, thereby realizing the cleaning of the mud sand in the sand collecting pool.
[0030] Further, the water inlet pipe is provided with a tapered flow guide cover close to the sand pool side, and the diameter of the tapered flow guide cover gradually decreases, and the diameter close to the sand pool side is smaller than the diameter away from the sand pool side.
[0031] By adopting the above technical scheme, the tapered flow guide cover with gradually decreasing diameter accelerates the water flow, so that the water flow uniformly accelerates into the sand pool, facilitating the sedimentation of the mud sand in the sand pool.
[0032] Further, the water inlet pipe is provided with a grid on the side away from the sand pool for preventing part of the sundries from entering the sand pool.
[0033] By adopting the above technical scheme, the grid blocks the sundries with large volume in the water flow entering the water inlet pipe, thereby reducing the probability of blockage caused by the large-volume sundries entering the sand pool.
[0034] Further, the grid is inclined to be arranged, and the side of the grid away from the water inlet pipe is inclined downward and facilitates the debris to fall into the bottom of the water reservoir under the action of gravity when the water inlet pipe is closed.
[0035] By adopting the above technical scheme, since the grid is inclined to be arranged, and the side of the grid away from the water inlet pipe is inclined downward, when the water inlet pipe is filled with water, the water flow passes through the grid from the horizontal direction into the water inlet pipe, at this time, the water flow pushes the larger volume of impurities on the grid to move along the inclined grid, and finally slips out of the grid, thereby reducing the adhesion probability of the impurities on the grid; at the same time, when the water inlet pipe is closed, the impurities on the grid fall into the bottom of the water reservoir under the action of gravity, thereby reducing the probability of the debris blocking the grid.
[0036] In summary, the present application has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0037] 1. The impurities in the water flow entering the water inlet pipe are preliminarily filtered by the grid, then the water flow is accelerated by the tapered flow guide cover, and finally the water flow in the water inlet pipe flows into the sand trap along the tangent direction of the sand trap, so as to make the water flow rotate in the sand trap, under the joint action of gravity and centrifugal force, the mud and sand impact on the side wall of the sand trap and flow into the sand collecting pool along the side wall of the sand trap, and finally the water flow after the sand and mud treatment in the sand trap is discharged into the water inlet tower through the drain pipe on the sealing cover, thereby reducing the content of the sand and mud entering the water inlet tower, and further reducing the probability of the blowout hole being blocked.
[0038] 2. The amount of mud and sand in the sand collecting pool is detected by the detection member, when the amount of mud and sand in the sand collecting pool is too much, the driving member drives the spiral shaft to rotate, and finally the mud and sand in the sand collecting pool is discharged through the sand discharging pipe, so as to ensure that the sand collecting pool collects the mud and sand deposited in the sand trap.
