AI Technical Summary
Extreme weather-induced backflow of rainwater may not be able to prevent flooding at the ends of the U-shaped channels of urban rail transit, potentially causing flooding at subway stations, affecting operational safety and endangering lives.
A combination of reinforced concrete flood-proof retaining walls and aluminum alloy flood-proof baffles is adopted to form a permanent and temporary flood-proof measure. The reinforced concrete retaining walls are permanently installed, while the aluminum alloy baffles are temporarily inserted into the column slots to seal the ends of the U-shaped grooves and resist flood intrusion.
In the event of a flood, the ends of the U-shaped channel can be quickly sealed to ensure the safety of subway operations. The structure is simple and reliable, with good sealing performance and significant flood prevention effect, without affecting the normal passage of trains.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of underground railway transportation technology, and specifically relates to a flood prevention structure at the end of a U-shaped trough for permanent and temporary underground rail transit access lines. Background Technology
[0002] Urban rail transit is an important mode of urban public transportation, playing an indispensable role in modern urban development due to its efficiency, speed, large capacity, and environmental friendliness. With the development of urban rail transit construction in China, its operational safety is receiving increasing attention.
[0003] In recent years, affected by global warming, extreme weather events have occurred frequently, and the intensity of local rainstorms has increased. These extreme weather conditions have had a great adverse impact on the operation of urban rail transit. Accidents such as rainwater backflow caused by extreme weather in some areas have posed a great threat to the normal operation of urban rail transit.
[0004] The parking lot access line is the passageway through which subway trains enter or exit the main line from the parking lot. It includes the underground section and the underground-to-above-ground transition section, which typically uses a U-shaped channel structure. Due to its structural characteristics, the U-shaped channel is of paramount importance in flood control. During heavy rain and continuous rainfall, insufficient municipal drainage capacity leads to water accumulation outside the station. Furthermore, because the height of the U-shaped channel's ends is limited, rainwater can easily backflow as the water level rises. Once a subway station is flooded, it not only severely disrupts the normal lives of citizens and faces heavy public pressure, causing serious negative social impacts, but in more serious cases, it can also endanger the lives of many people, resulting in significant casualties. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model provides a flood prevention structure for the end of a U-shaped trough in an underground rail transit access line that combines permanent and temporary features, in order to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art. This structure can enhance the flood prevention capability of the end of the U-shaped trough in the parking lot of urban rail transit, effectively prevent flooding, and reduce the risk of flood backflow in the U-shaped trough section.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art is: a flood prevention structure at the end of a U-shaped channel for underground rail transit access lines that is both permanent and temporary, including a flood prevention retaining wall horizontally installed at the end of the U-shaped channel structure. The flood prevention retaining wall is made of reinforced concrete cast-in-place structure and is provided with a train trough. Two columns facing each other are provided on both sides of the train trough. Slots are provided on the columns, and a flood prevention baffle is inserted between the two columns.
[0007] The flood protection baffle is made of aluminum alloy plate.
[0008] The advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows: It adopts a combination of a steel-concrete structure and a baffle plate, with the steel-concrete structure and the U-shaped channel structure constructed simultaneously. In the event of a flood, the baffle plate can be inserted into the train track to quickly seal the end of the U-shaped channel, forming a permanent and temporary flood prevention measure to resist flood intrusion. The operation is convenient, time-saving, and labor-saving. Normally, the end of the U-shaped channel remains open, not affecting train passage. This utility model has a simple and reliable structure, strong safety, good sealing performance, and excellent flood prevention effect, ensuring the safe operation of the subway.

[0012] To further understand the invention content, features, and effects of this utility model, the following embodiments are provided, and detailed descriptions are given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0013] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A flood prevention structure for the end of a U-shaped trough of a permanent and temporary underground rail transit access line includes a flood prevention retaining wall 1 horizontally installed at the end of the U-shaped trough structure 4. The flood prevention retaining wall 1 is a reinforced concrete cast-in-place structure and is equipped with a train trough. The centerline of the train trough coincides with the centerline 5 of the parking lot access line. Two facing columns 3 are provided on both sides of the train trough. Slots are provided on the columns 3, and flood prevention baffles 2 are inserted between the two columns 3.
[0014] In this embodiment, the flood-proof baffle 2 is made of aluminum alloy plate, which has high strength, good waterproof performance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and is lightweight and easy to install.
[0015] The flood prevention structure at the end of the U-shaped channel of the above-mentioned inlet and outlet line consists of two parts: a permanent reinforced concrete flood prevention wall and a temporary aluminum alloy flood prevention baffle. When a flood occurs, the temporary aluminum alloy flood prevention baffle is inserted into the slot of the column to form a permanent and temporary flood prevention measure to resist flood attack.
[0016] Construction steps and key technical points of the above-mentioned flood prevention structure at the end of the U-shaped channel of the inlet / outlet line:
[0017] Step 1: During the design phase, determine the width and shape of the permanent reinforced concrete flood barrier according to the subway vehicle clearance requirements to ensure the normal operation of subway trains; based on the subway flood prevention report or geological survey data, calculate and determine the height and thickness of the permanent reinforced concrete flood barrier to ensure flood control capacity.
[0018] Step 2: After the reinforced concrete U-shaped channel structure is completed, construct the permanent reinforced concrete flood control retaining wall and the columns with slots.
[0019] Step 3: Customize irregular-shaped aluminum alloy flood barriers, with a height level with the permanent reinforced concrete flood barrier wall; determine the thickness of the barriers through calculation based on the subway flood prevention report or geological survey data to ensure flood control capacity.
[0020] Step 4: In the event of a flood, insert the aluminum alloy flood barrier into the slot of the column to form a permanent and temporary flood protection system to resist flooding.
[0021] Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive.
