Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ventilation equipment for tunnel construction, and more specifically, to a connection structure for a ventilation hose used in tunnel construction. Background Technology
[0002] During tunnel construction, it is necessary to extract dusty air from the working area inside the tunnel to ensure the safety of the working environment for the workers inside. Spiral ventilation hoses are often used, connected to external exhaust fans for ventilation. Spiral ventilation hoses have a simple structure, with tightly welded spiral areas on the hose body. The spiral seams are not easy to tear and form clamps, which control the expansion of the coated fabric under stress, resulting in uniform airflow and less resistance and leakage.
[0003] In the actual installation of ventilation hoses, when the tunnel construction distance is long, the length of a single ventilation hose is insufficient to extend into the internal working area. In this case, it is necessary to connect two or more ventilation hoses to meet the ventilation needs of tunnel construction. The existing ventilation hose connection structure has the following problems: First, the connection sealing is not good enough, and air leakage is prone to occur at the connection point, causing the hoses on both sides to bulge. Second, the connector at the connection point is far from the lifting rings of the ventilation hoses on both sides, and there is no special hanging bracket component designed, resulting in large shaking in the connection area and insufficient safety and stability. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a connection structure for ventilation hoses used in tunnel construction. This connection structure achieves a tight connection by extending into the ventilation hoses on both sides, resulting in good sealing. It also features a special hanging bracket assembly that can be hung on a double-strand iron wire, acting as a stable hanging ring structure in the middle to ensure the continuity of the connection between the two ventilation hoses and improve safety and stability.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A connection structure for ventilation hoses used in tunnel construction includes several ventilation hoses, each with a welding rod spirally wound around its body and each hose suspended by a double-strand iron wire through several lifting rings at the top. Adjacent ventilation hoses are connected by a connection structure, which includes an annular partition. Both sides of the annular partition are connected to insert sleeves that extend into the interior of the ventilation hoses on both sides. The outer surface of each insert sleeve is machined with a spiral groove along its axial direction.
[0007] As a further optimization of this solution, the upper ends of both sides of the annular partition are provided with mounting rods extending outwards. The length of the mounting rods is the same as the length of the sleeve. The surface of the mounting rods is provided with several spaced through holes, and a sealing steel wire rope passes through the inside of the several spaced through holes. The sealing steel wire rope is wound downwards and aligned to enter the spiral groove, pressing the ventilation hose into the spiral groove to achieve a spiral seal at the connection position of the ventilation hose.
[0008] As a further optimization of this solution, both ends of the sealing wire rope are threaded and tightened by screwing nuts into the threads. Anti-slip pads are nested on the threads of the sealing wire rope inside the nuts.
[0009] As a further optimization of this solution, the top surface of the annular partition is machined with two symmetrical sliding groove plates. The sliding groove inside the sliding groove plate is inserted into the inverted concave lifting top frame. The inverted concave lifting top frame is limited by the locking bolts on the outer side of the two sliding groove plates. The upper end of the inverted concave lifting top frame is pushed into the bottom of the double iron wire.
[0010] As a further optimization of this solution, the upper surface of the inverted concave lifting top frame is machined with two wire holes, and steel wires pass through the two wire holes. The upper part of the steel wire is wrapped with double strand iron wire, and the lower ends of the steel wire are fixed by welding plates.
[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] In this invention, the sleeves are designed to extend into the ventilation hoses on both sides, and the sealing steel wire rope is wound downwards into the spiral groove to press the ventilation hose into the spiral groove, thus achieving a spiral seal at the connection point of the ventilation hose. The sealing effect is good and air leakage is not likely to occur.
[0013] This invention utilizes a sliding groove plate, an inverted concave lifting top frame, and steel wires to achieve mutual limiting connection between the annular partition and the double-strand iron wire, serving as a stable lifting ring structure in the middle. This ensures the continuity of the connection between the two ventilation hoses, resulting in better safety and stability. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0019] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the following description, in conjunction with specific illustrations, further elaborates on this utility model.
[0020] To address the issue of insufficient sealing in existing connections, which leads to air leakage at the connection points and causes the hoses on both sides to bulge;
[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, this application includes several ventilation hoses 1, wherein each ventilation hose 1 is spirally wound with welding rods 2 and each ventilation hose 1 is hoisted by passing through several lifting rings 3 above and double-strand iron wires 4. A connecting structure is provided between adjacent ventilation hoses 1.
[0022] like Figure 2 As shown, the connection structure includes an annular partition 5, and both sides of the annular partition 5 are connected to insert sleeves 6, which are inserted into the pipes of the ventilation hoses 1 on both sides respectively.
[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, a spiral groove 7 along the axial direction of the sleeve 6 is machined on the outer side of the sleeve 6. An installation rod 8 is provided on the upper side of both sides of the annular partition 5. The length of the installation rod 8 is the same as the length of the sleeve 6. Several spaced through holes 9 are opened on the surface of the installation rod 8, and a sealing steel wire rope 10 is passed through the several spaced through holes 9. The sealing steel wire rope 10 is wound downward and aligned into the spiral groove 7 to press the ventilation hose 1 into the spiral groove 7 to achieve a spiral seal at the connection position of the ventilation hose 1. Both ends of the sealing steel wire rope 10 are machined with threads 13 and are screwed into the threads 13 by nuts 12 for tightening. Anti-slip pads 11 are nested on the threads 13 of the sealing steel wire rope 10 inside the nuts 12.
[0024] Specifically, the sleeve 6 extends into the ventilation hoses 1 on both sides to form a spiral sealing base. Combined with the sealing wire rope 10, it winds downward into the spiral groove 7 to press the ventilation hose 1 into the spiral groove 7, thus achieving a spiral seal at the connection position of the ventilation hose 1. There are multiple continuous spiral sealing annular areas, resulting in a good sealing effect and reducing the likelihood of air leakage.
[0025] To address the issue that the existing connection points are too far from the hanging rings of the ventilation hoses on both sides, and there is no dedicated hanging bracket component, resulting in significant shaking in the connection area and insufficient safety and stability;
[0026] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the top surface of the annular partition 5 is machined with two symmetrical sliding plates 14. The sliding groove inside the sliding plate 14 is inserted into the inverted concave lifting top frame 15. The inverted concave lifting top frame 15 is limited by the locking bolts 16 on the outer side of the two sliding plates 14. The upper end of the inverted concave lifting top frame 15 is pushed into the lower part of the double-strand iron wire 4. The upper end of the inverted concave lifting top frame 15 is machined with two wire holes and steel wire 17 passes through the two wire holes. The double-strand iron wire 4 is wrapped and tied tightly above the steel wire 17, and both ends below the steel wire 17 are welded and fixed by welding pieces 18.
[0027] Specifically, based on the height of the double-strand iron wire 4, the relative positions of the inverted concave lifting top frame 15 and the two sliding plates 14 are adjusted so that the upper surface of the inverted concave lifting top frame 15 pushes into the lower part of the double-strand iron wire 4, and the double-strand iron wire 4 is tightly wrapped and bound at the top by the steel wire 17, and fixed at the bottom by welding plates 18. This can realize the mutual limiting connection between the annular partition 5 and the double-strand iron wire 4, which acts as a stable lifting ring structure in the middle. When the connecting part is far away from the lifting ring 3 of the ventilation hose 1 on both sides, the continuity of the connection of the two ventilation hoses 1 is ensured, and the safety and stability are better.
