Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of geotechnical engineering technology, and more specifically, to a lightweight prefabricated filling retaining wall structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the existing technology, Chinese patent CN201310649829.X, "A device for cemented backfilling retaining wall for tailings in underground mines," discloses a retaining wall structure using "gabion mesh boxes filled with mining waste rock + geotextile / dewatering pipes." Compared with traditional retaining walls, this method is simple to construct, has good load-bearing performance, and high safety. However, it has drawbacks in actual use, including a long construction cycle (the installation of the bottom dewatering pipes and the construction and curing of the wall foundation exceed 12 hours, and the beams can only be removed one month after the backfilling is completed), high on-site labor intensity (more than ten cubic meters of waste rock need to be filled on-site for the gabion mesh boxes, especially the upper backfilling which can only be done manually, and the amount of gap filling is large), and relatively complex processes due to the large amount of materials consumed (metal mesh, filter cloth dewatering pipes, concrete and cement mortar, etc.).
[0003] Chinese patent CN201410658272.0 – “A Demountable Filling Retaining Wall”. This patent discloses a retaining wall composed of multiple sets of sandbags and multiple fasteners. The main drawbacks are: high material consumption and complex process (prefabricated sandbags, four sets of fasteners of different specifications, four sets of folding plates of different specifications, and multiple interlaced concrete pouring), high labor intensity (sandbag preparation and on-site stacking, installation of multiple sets of fasteners, and the need for on-site welding), poor retaining wall quality, and safety hazards after disassembly (after removing the fasteners, the wall is full of bagged, unbonded loose sand, and there are even cases where the sandbags are broken. Although the retaining wall plays a role in sealing and dehydrating in the early stage, it brings the safety hazard of the wall collapsing on site later).
[0004] Chinese Patent CN202410580548.1 – “A Movable Propulsion Airbag Steel Structure Inflatable Retaining Wall and Construction Method”. This patent discloses a movable vehicle-mounted airbag as an inflatable retaining wall. While it has the advantages of simple and quick process, reusability, and low material consumption, it also has the disadvantages of high initial investment in the retaining wall and the need for a separate towing vehicle.
[0005] Chinese patent CN202010853378.1 - "A novel detachable recyclable filling retaining wall construction device and method" has the drawbacks of high material consumption, relatively complex process, and high labor intensity.
[0006] In summary, existing retaining wall structures all suffer from problems such as complex construction processes, high construction difficulty, long construction periods, and high construction costs. Utility Model Content

Therefore, this utility model provides a retaining wall structure that enables rapid assembly of infill retaining walls and repeated recycling of main materials with low-intensity on-site operations, inexpensive materials, and simple processes.

The limiting vertical circular steel beam and the fixed square steel beam are fixed with bolts or wires, and the vertical circular steel beam and the fixed square steel beam are connected to each other to form a "well" shaped structure.
[0015] Furthermore, the inflatable sealing tubes are attached to both ends of the inner side of the retaining wall from bottom to top.
[0016] Furthermore, the inflatable sealing tube is filled between the retaining wall and the surrounding rock of the tunnel. The inflatable sealing tube is long and narrow, and its length is the same as the height of the retaining wall.

[0018] Furthermore, two vertical boreholes are respectively drilled at the top and bottom of the external connecting roadway of the mine, with a depth of not less than 0.5m, and the upper and lower ends of the limiting vertical circular steel beam are inserted into the vertical boreholes.
[0019] Furthermore, a limiting groove is excavated at the bottom of the entrance to the goaf of the mine, and the thickness and width of the limiting groove are consistent with the specifications of the retaining wall, and the minimum depth of the limiting groove is not less than 0.1m.
[0020] Furthermore, the plastic template is provided in multiple sets, and the multiple sets of plastic templates are stacked horizontally and vertically from bottom to top to form a retaining wall. The multiple sets of plastic templates are connected to each other by bolts.

Therefore, it provides a retaining wall structure that can achieve rapid assembly of filling retaining walls and repeated recycling of main materials with low-intensity on-site operation, inexpensive materials and simple process.
