Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of prestressed pipe pile technology, and relates to pile heads suitable for non-welded connections. Background Technology

[0002] Prestressed concrete piles are commonly used in engineering projects, especially in many new energy photovoltaic projects, such as the transformer substation foundations and electrical primary and secondary equipment foundations of floating photovoltaic projects. During construction, when multiple piles for the same equipment are designed to have the same pile top elevation, the pile top elevation error is large due to on-site pile driving, causing problems with the connection between the superstructure and the piles. At the same time, the project site may be affected by limitations such as construction power supply and weather conditions, making it impossible to adjust the pile top elevation by welding. In this case, it is of great significance to find a more convenient pile top connection joint that is also applicable to different pile top elevations and reduces the construction period.

[0010] The diameter of the outer circle of the pile head is 400~600cm, and the diameter of the vertical arc plate is 200~400cm.

[0011] External hex bolts are installed on the vertical connecting plates, and the two adjacent vertical connecting plates on the two half-pile heads are connected by matching external hex bolts.
