[0002] In the process of mineral exploitation, the stability of the mine heap slope directly affects production safety and ecological environment. The existing mine heap is generally designed to have a seepage interception dam for seepage prevention, and the seepage prevention structure of the seepage interception dam is mostly a seepage prevention geomembrane.

[0024] The utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments in the utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0025] As Figs. 1-2 The utility model discloses a kind of open-pit mine steep slope seepage-proof structures, mainly used to repair when seepage dam seeps, specifically, using excavator to excavate the original mine heap 1 of seepage dam, after excavation is completed, excavation slope face is formed, grouting pipe 3 is set in excavation face, cement soil is accumulated at excavation face to form new seepage dam, then grouting pipe 3 is grouted, forms water-stop curtain 2.

[0026] Seepage-proof structure includes water-stop curtain 2, cement soil, guniting layer 5, wherein, water-stop curtain 2 is formed by grouting through grouting pipe 3, grouting pipe 3 extends downward along the excavation slope face of original mine heap, length is compatible with the length of excavation slope face, multiple grouting pipes 3 are evenly distributed in the extension direction of excavation slope face, and the seepage slurry of any two adjacent grouting pipes 3 meets to form water-stop curtain 2, seepage is prevented using water-stop curtain 2, to avoid the seepage water of mine heap to seep outwards.

[0027] Cement-soil is piled up on the outside of the excavated slope to form a new seepage interception dam 4. Multiple geogrids 6 are spaced longitudinally within the cement-soil. The new seepage interception dam 4 is constructed by layering and compacting 5% cement-stabilized soil upwards, with each layer compacted to a height of 1m. The final dam 4 has a top width of 10m, a bottom width of 15m, and a height of 10m. The slope of the excavated slope is 60°-75°, which maximizes the stability of the new seepage interception dam after its construction. A 45° slope is formed by brushing the outside of the cement-soil. A shotcrete layer 5 is sprayed onto the outside of this slope. A bidirectional geogrid 6 with a strength ≥50kN / m and a longitudinal overlap width ≥30cm is laid within the cement-soil layer. It is fixed with U-shaped nails to enhance interlayer shear strength, improve interlayer bonding, and prevent cracking. The shotcrete layer 5 has a thickness of not less than 5cm, preferably 8-10cm, and incorporates a quick-setting agent and polypropylene fibers to form a high-strength protective layer.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, a geotextile is laid on the upper edge of the cement soil and the shotcrete layer 5 and the upper surface of the mine steep slope. The geotextile is a waterproof geotextile, such as a tarpaulin or a plastic film, which can prevent rainwater from seeping in, thereby reducing the seepage pressure in the mine pile and reducing the possibility of water seepage.

[0029] In an optional embodiment, to ensure the consolidation stability of the new cutoff dam 4 and the original mine pile 1, the grouting pipe 3 is provided with multiple sets of transverse grouting mechanisms evenly distributed along its length. Each transverse grouting mechanism includes two branch pipes 7 extending into the original mine pile and the cement soil, respectively, thereby forming an interlocking between the original mine pile 1 and the new cutoff dam 4. The two branch pipes 7 of the transverse grouting mechanism extend into the new cutoff dam 4 and the original mine pile 1 respectively for grouting, thereby improving the consolidation capacity and range. Multiple sets of transverse grouting mechanisms are evenly distributed along the length of the grouting pipe 3. Each set of transverse grouting mechanisms includes branch pipes 7 extending to both sides of the grouting pipe 3. The diameter of the branch pipes 7 is less than or equal to that of the grouting pipe 3. Grout outlet holes are provided on the branch pipes 7. The ends of the branch pipes 7 are closed conical structures. Generally, after the original mine pile 1 is excavated, the branch pipes 7 are inserted into the corresponding excavated slope by external force, and then the new cutoff dam is built, forming an interlocking between the cutoff dam and the original mine pile 1 through the transverse grouting mechanism.

[0030] To reduce construction difficulty, the end of the branch pipe 7 is a closed sealed end, which can be inserted into the excavation slope of the original ore pile 1 under external force.

[0031] In this embodiment, the grouting pipe 3 includes multiple sections. Any two adjacent sections of the grouting pipe 3 are connected by a cross joint 8. The two longitudinal sections of the cross joint 8 are connected by a threaded connection between the two adjacent sections of the grouting pipe 3. Two branch pipes 7 are respectively assembled on the two interfaces on both sides of the cross joint 8, so that the length of the grouting pipe 3 can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0032] In order to improve the structural strength of the water stop curtain 2, a pull bar is connected between any two adjacent grouting pipes 3, and the pull bar can be a steel bar or a steel cable. The grouting pipe 3 is in multiple sections, and each section of the grouting pipe 3 corresponds to a pull bar.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, the upper ends of the plurality of grouting pipes 3 are connected to a connecting pipe, one end of the connecting pipe is a closed end, and the other end corresponds to the connection of the grouting pump. The connecting pipe is provided with a plurality of connecting heads corresponding to the grouting pipes 3, and a pressure pump corresponding to each grouting pipe 3 is arranged on the connecting head. The connecting head is provided with a control valve, and the grouting can be synchronized or each grouting pipe 3 can be independently grouted.

[0034] In this embodiment, the grouting pipe 3 is made of steel, and the preliminary design thickness of the curtain should be 1 m according to the actual situation on site. The relationship between the spacing (L) of the grouting pipe 3 and the slurry diffusion radius (R) is as follows:

[0035] L=2Rgcosα

[0036] In order to maximize the single-hole curtain water plugging effect, the intersection angle (α) is generally selected to be about 45°. In this case, the relationship between the spacing (L), the curtain thickness (H), and the slurry diffusion radius (R) is as follows:

[0037] L=H=2Rsin45°=1.414R

[0038] Therefore, through the above analysis and calculation, the curtain thickness is 1 m, and the slurry diffusion radius is 0.71 m. According to the slurry diffusion radius and combined with the actual situation on site, the grouting holes 9 are arranged on the branch pipes 7 and the grouting pipes 3, and the spacing of the grouting holes 9 is set to be 150-450 mm.

[0039] The water-cement ratio of the slurry is 0.7-1 (the water-cement ratio can be adjusted according to the diffusion degree on site), the design final hole grouting pressure is 2 MPa, 10%-20% of the cement quality is added to the slurry to enhance the fluidity of the cement, enhance the bonding strength of the cement, ensure the stability of the slurry, and according to the water gushing situation during drilling construction, 2%-10% of the cement quality of the quick-setting agent can be added to the slurry, and the cement strength is not less than C30.

[0040] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application is within the scope of protection of the claims of the present application.
