[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0026] This utility model provides a pipe gallery, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, it includes pipe 3, support mechanism 1, fixing mechanism 2 and protection mechanism 4.

[0027] The support mechanism 1 includes longitudinal beams 11 and transverse beams 12, with the transverse beams 12 connecting adjacent longitudinal beams 11.

[0028] The fixing mechanism 2 is connected to the crossbeam 12, and the fixing mechanism 2 is detachably connected to the pipe 3.

[0029] The protective mechanism 4 is laid between adjacent longitudinal beams 11, and the protective mechanism 4 is located above the pipe 3.

[0030] In use, the longitudinal beams 11 serve as the vertical load-bearing structure of the utility tunnel, standing vertically on the ground to provide stable vertical support for the entire tunnel. The transverse beams 12 connect horizontally between adjacent longitudinal beams 11, forming a grid-like support frame that provides lateral connection and load-bearing capacity, ensuring the overall stability of the utility tunnel structure and enabling it to withstand pipe 3 and other additional loads. The fixing mechanism 2 securely fixes pipe 3 to the transverse beams 12, ensuring that pipe 3 will not shake or shift during use. The protective mechanism 4 is laid between adjacent longitudinal beams 11 and covers pipe 3, forming an isolation barrier. Under sunlight, the UV-resistant material of the protective mechanism 4 blocks most ultraviolet rays; in rainy weather, it prevents rainwater from directly hitting pipe 3.

[0031] In this invention, the protective mechanism 4 effectively blocks environmental factors such as ultraviolet rays and rainwater, significantly reducing the rate of aging and corrosion of the pipe 3 and reducing the need for frequent replacement of the pipe 3.

[0032] To improve the sun-shading and waterproof properties of protective fabric 41, please refer to... Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment, the protective fabric 41 includes a sunshade layer 41 and a waterproof layer 42. The sunshade layer 41 is made of aluminum foil, and the waterproof layer 42 is made of polyethylene. The sunshade layer 41 and the waterproof layer 42 are stacked together.

[0033] When in use, the combination of the sunshade layer 41 and the waterproof layer 42 provides multi-dimensional environmental protection for the pipe 3, which is especially suitable for complex working conditions with high humidity and high ultraviolet radiation outdoors, and fundamentally solves the problem of easy aging and damage of traditional pipe gallery pipes 3.

[0034] To achieve the spreading and rolling of protective fabric 41, please refer to... Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment, the protective mechanism 4 further includes a winding assembly 5, which includes a vertical pole 51, a winding roller 52, a torsion spring 53, and a collar 54. The vertical pole 51 is connected to the longitudinal beam 11, the winding roller 52 is rotatably connected between the vertical poles 51 on the same side, one end of the torsion spring 53 is connected to the winding roller 52, and the other end of the torsion spring 53 is connected to the vertical pole 51. The sunshade layer 41 and the waterproof layer 42 are fixedly connected to the winding roller 52 on one side, and the collar 54 is connected to the side of the sunshade layer 41 and the waterproof layer 42 away from the winding roller 52. The collar 54 is sleeved on the vertical pole 51 on the longitudinal beam 11 away from the winding roller 52.

[0035] When in use, when the collar 54 is fitted onto the upright 51, the protective cloth 41 overcomes the torque of the torsion spring 53, and the protective cloth 41 is in an unfolded state. When it is necessary to inspect or replace the pipe 3, the collar 54 is removed from the upright 51. Under the action of the torque of the torsion spring 53, the winding roller 52 rotates, and the protective cloth 41 is wound up onto the winding roller 52.

[0036] To reduce the possibility of the collar 54 detaching from the upright 51, please refer to... Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment, the winding assembly 5 further includes an anti-detachment rod 55, which is connected to the upright 51, located above the collar 54, and abuts against the collar 54.

[0037] During use, under external interference such as strong winds or construction around the pipe gallery, the collar 54 may detach from the upright 51 due to upward impact or external pulling, causing the protective cloth 41 to roll up and fail to properly protect the pipeline 3. The anti-detachment rod 55 is located above and abuts against the collar 54, forming a physical barrier that restricts the upward movement of the collar 54, ensuring that the collar 54 always remains within the effective limiting range of the upright 51. This ensures that the protective cloth 41 continuously covers the pipeline 3, maintaining the protective effect.

[0038] To improve the strength of protective fabric 41, please refer to... Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment, the protective mechanism 4 further includes a reinforcing rib 43 made of aramid fiber. The reinforcing rib 43 is connected between the sunshade layer 41 and the waterproof layer 42 and extends along the winding direction of the sunshade layer 41 and the waterproof layer 42.

[0039] During use, the reinforcing ribs 43 form a "stress-bearing skeleton". When the protective cloth 41 is pulled or unfolded by the take-up roller 52, the tension is transmitted through the reinforcing ribs 43, avoiding concentrated stress in a single area and reducing the possibility of damage to the protective cloth 41.

[0040] To adjust the height of the protective fabric 41, please refer to... Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment, the upright 51 is slidably connected to the longitudinal beam 11 along the height direction of the longitudinal beam 11, and the protective mechanism 4 further includes a locking component 6, which is connected to the longitudinal beam 11 and is used to lock the upright 51.

[0041] When in use, the design of sliding connection and locking component 6 of pole 51 not only meets the daily sunshade and waterproof needs, but also reduces the risk through structure in extreme working conditions. At the same time, it is compatible with different pipe specifications 3 and maintenance operations, solving the problem of insufficient flexibility of traditional fixed brackets.

[0042] To adjust the height of the protective fabric 41, please refer to... Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment, the locking assembly 6 includes a sleeve 61 and a rod 62. The sleeve 61 is connected to the longitudinal beam 11, and the upright 51 is slidably connected inside the sleeve 61. The sleeve 61 is provided with a socket 63, and the upright 51 is provided with a plurality of slots 64 spaced apart along the sliding direction of the upright 51. The rod 62 is slidably connected to the socket 63 and any slot 64.

[0043] When adjusting the height of the protective cloth 41 during use, pull the insert rod 62 out of the slot 64 and push the upright rod 51 to slide inside the sleeve 61. When the protective cloth 41 is at the predetermined height, slide the insert rod 62 into the insertion hole 63 and the corresponding slot 64. The upright rod 51 is fixed and the protective cloth 41 is fixed.

[0044] To simplify the process, please refer to... Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment, the locking assembly 6 further includes a spring 65, which is sleeved on the insertion rod 62. One end of the spring 65 is connected to the insertion rod 62, and the other end of the spring 65 is connected to the sleeve 61. The spring 65 is in a stretched state, and the spring 65 causes the insertion rod 62 to tend to slide towards the upright rod 51.

[0045] During use, the spring 65 is in a stretched state, continuously applying a pulling force towards the upright 51 to the insertion rod 62. When the upright 51 slides until the slot 64 is aligned with the insertion hole 63 of the sleeve 61, the insertion rod 62 automatically inserts into the slot 64 under the pulling force of the spring 65, eliminating the need for manual precise alignment and insertion, thus achieving quick locking.

[0046] To make it easier for the insert 62 to slide into the slot 64, please refer to... Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment, the end of the insertion rod 62 near the upright rod 51 is spherical.

[0047] In use, as the upright 51 slides, the spherical end can move smoothly along the surface of the upright 51. Once the slot 64 is aligned with the socket 63 of the sleeve 61, the spherical end will automatically engage with the slot 64 due to its own curvature, without the need for manual adjustment of the angle of the insert rod 62.

[0048] To secure pipe 3, please refer to... Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the fixing mechanism 2 includes a clamp 21, which is connected to the crossbeam 12 and is detachably connected to the pipe 3.

[0049] In use, the clamp 21 is usually a semi-circular or circular structure, connected into a ring by bolts or clips, and fits tightly against the outer wall of the pipe 3. After the bolts are tightened, the friction between the inner wall of the clamp 21 and the pipe 3 can effectively resist the axial displacement and circumferential rotation of the pipe 3.

[0050] To better understand this utility model, the following is combined with... Figure 1 - Figure 3The working principle of a pipe gallery according to the present invention is described in detail as follows: The longitudinal beams 11, serving as the vertical load-bearing structure of the pipe gallery, stand vertically on the ground, providing stable vertical support for the entire pipe gallery. The transverse beams 12 are horizontally connected between adjacent longitudinal beams 11, forming a grid-like support frame, providing lateral connection and load-bearing function, ensuring the stability of the overall pipe gallery structure, and capable of withstanding the pipe 3 and other additional loads. The fixing mechanism 2 firmly fixes the pipe 3 to the transverse beams 12, ensuring that the pipe 3 will not shake or shift during use. The protective mechanism 4 is laid between adjacent longitudinal beams 11 and covers the pipe 3, forming an isolation barrier. Under sunlight, the UV-resistant material of the protective mechanism 4 can block most ultraviolet rays; in rainy weather, it can prevent rainwater from directly hitting the pipe 3.
