AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing lightweight wellpoint dewatering mechanisms are prone to radial pressure damage to the well walls during pumping, leading to blockages and structural damage, making maintenance difficult. Furthermore, the clay sealing layer and filter layer are prone to collapse, affecting construction speed and efficiency.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building technology, specifically a lightweight wellpoint dewatering mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Lightweight wellpoint dewatering systems are a construction method for dewatering foundation pits. Wellpoint pipes are installed at regular intervals around the perimeter of the foundation pit. A filter pipe is installed at the bottom of each wellpoint pipe and inserted into the permeable layer. A flexible hose connects to a main collection pipe, which is a Φ150 steel pipe with Φ40 suction inlets spaced at the same intervals as the wellpoint pipes. A vacuum pump then extracts water from the collection pipes, thereby lowering the groundwater level around the foundation pit and ensuring the base remains dry. However, existing technology has the following drawbacks: Because the well walls are made of a thin mesh metal material, they are subjected to high radial pressure during pumping, causing the well walls to move closer to the pipe, damaging the well structure and leading to blockages. Repairs are difficult, often requiring the well walls to be removed from the well for replacement. The outer side of the well walls typically has a clay sealing layer and a filter layer; removing the well wall causes these layers to collapse, damaging the internal structure of the well. This not only reduces construction speed but also results in waste. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0004] A combined vacuum wellpoint dewatering mechanism includes an annular rapid drainage duct installed on the lower outer side of the well pipe, a well wall installed on the outer side of the rapid drainage duct, a clay sealing layer installed on the upper part of the outer side of the well wall, and a filter material layer installed on the lower part of the outer side of the well wall; the height of the rapid drainage duct corresponds to the bottom seepage layer; the height of the filter material layer extends from the bottom seepage layer to the soft soil layer.

[0005] The well pipe is connected to the inlet of the reciprocating vacuum unit via pipes, elbows, and flanges; the outlet pipe of the reciprocating vacuum unit is connected to the drainage ditch.

[0006] A geomembrane plug is installed at the bottom of the well pipe.

[0007] The quick-release duct is made of synthetic fibers, plastic wires, and synthetic rubber wound together.

[0008] The height of the speed-draining duct is at least 3 meters.

[0009] Reciprocating vacuum units have exhaust ports.

[0010] The height of the clay sealing layer is 1-1.5 meters.

[0011] The advantages of this invention are: the use of a reciprocating vacuum unit instead of a submersible pump avoids excessive water pressure on the well wall during pumping; the quick-release duct not only provides some support to the well wall, but also, due to the use of the quick-release duct for secondary filtration, the pore density of the well wall can be greater, reducing the radial pressure on the well wall during drainage and reducing deformation of the well wall; and the quick-release duct can be hooked out and replaced with a long iron hook, meaning that the well wall does not need to be pulled out, which can effectively avoid downtime losses caused by blockage, and maintenance is simple.
