Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of water conservancy construction technology, and specifically relates to a waterproof structure for water conservancy construction. Background Technology
[0002] Water conservancy projects are engineering projects constructed to control and regulate surface water and groundwater in nature to achieve the purpose of eliminating harm and promoting benefits. Water is an essential and precious resource for human production and life, but its natural state does not fully meet human needs. Only by constructing water conservancy projects can we control water flow, prevent floods, and regulate and distribute water to meet the needs of people's lives and production for water resources. Water conservancy projects require the construction of different types of hydraulic structures such as dams, dikes, spillways, sluice gates, intakes, canals, ferries, rafts, and fishways to achieve their goals.
[0003] In water conservancy construction, drainage pipes are needed for water diversion and drainage. Due to the limited length of the pipes, two pipes need to be connected. Common pipe connection methods include flange connection and threaded connection, which facilitate pipe connection and disassembly. During water conservancy construction, due to different geological environments, some foundations are hard and some are soft. In soft foundations, especially in silty areas, uneven settlement of adjacent pipes is likely to occur, causing the pipe connection to loosen, which in turn leads to water leakage during transmission. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a waterproof structure for hydraulic construction, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a waterproof structure for water conservancy construction, comprising two pipes for water transport, with a leak-proof component between the two pipes. The leak-proof component includes two connecting frames fixedly installed at the joint of the two pipes and detachably connected by fasteners, an anti-sinking pad located at the bottom of the pipe and detachably connected to the connecting frames for supporting the pipes, and a sealing element located between the two pipes for filling the gap at the joint of the two pipes.
[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by setting the leak-proof components, especially the use of sealing elements, the gap at the joint of two pipes can be effectively filled, enabling the two pipes to be tightly connected, thereby greatly improving the overall waterproof performance and ensuring that the water diversion process in water conservancy construction will not be affected by leakage. The setting of the anti-settlement pad not only provides additional support for the pipes and reduces the risk of pipe subsidence caused by soil settlement or water erosion, but also enhances the stability of the entire structure and ensures the long-term safe operation of water conservancy facilities.
[0007] To ensure a secure connection between the two pipes:
[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the connecting frame is a closed ring, and the cross-section of the connecting frame is U-shaped, with the connecting frames on two adjacent pipes arranged opposite each other.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this improvement are as follows: the connecting frame is set on the outside of the pipe and is similar in shape to the pipe. Both connecting frames have a receiving cavity on the side away from each other, which facilitates the connection and fixation of the two connecting frames by fasteners. The fasteners can be bolts, with their two ends located in the receiving cavities of the two connecting frames respectively. This can prevent the erosion of rainwater and ensure the firmness of the bolt connection, thereby ensuring the firmness of the connection between the two pipes.
[0010] To prevent leaks at pipe joints caused by uneven pipe settlement and erosion from loose soil and silt:
[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the bottom of the two connecting frames is embedded in the middle of the anti-settling pad, and a sealing gasket is provided between the anti-settling pad and the pipe.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this improvement are as follows: the middle of the anti-settlement pad is directly opposite the joint of the two pipes, which can support the pipes. At the same time, rubber sealing gaskets are set between the pipes and the anti-settlement pad, that is, on both sides of the two connecting frames, which can fill the gap between the pipes and the anti-settlement pad to prevent silt from entering and avoid uneven settlement of the pipes and erosion by soil and silt in the soft area, which could lead to leakage at the joint of the pipes.
[0013] In order to increase the sealing of pipe connections:
[0014] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the sealing element includes a first sealing element disposed at the joint of the two pipes and a second sealing element disposed between the two connecting frames.
[0015] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that by setting two seals, the sealing performance of the pipe connection can be increased.
[0016] To achieve a preliminary seal at the joint of the two pipes:
[0017] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the first sealing element includes a connector symmetrically and fixedly connected to the splice of the two pipes, a first sealing plug disposed on one of the connectors, and a first sealing slot opened inside the other connector.
[0018] The beneficial effects of this improvement are: when connecting pipes, the two connecting frames are aligned and fit together, which drives the first sealing block to be horizontally inserted into the first sealing slot, thereby achieving a preliminary seal at the joint of the two pipes.
[0019] To achieve a second seal at the joint of the two pipes:
[0020] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the second sealing element includes a second sealing block disposed on the connecting frame on the side away from the first sealing block and a second sealing slot opened on the connecting frame on the side away from the first sealing slot.
[0021] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that, at the same time the first sealing block is inserted into the first sealing slot, the second sealing block is inserted into the second sealing slot, thereby achieving a second seal at the joint of the two pipes.
[0022] To prevent the anti-settlement pad from shifting from the pipe:
[0023] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: at least one retaining plate is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the anti-sinking pad, and the retaining plate is connected to the connecting frame by a fastener.
[0024] The beneficial effects of this improvement are: multiple clamping plates can be set on the anti-settling pad, and the clamping plates can be connected to the connecting frame by fasteners, such as bolts, to achieve the connection between the anti-settling pad and the pipeline and prevent the anti-settling pad from shifting from the pipeline.

[0030] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The description in this part is only exemplary and explanatory, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model in any way.
[0031] This utility model relates to an existing waterproof structure for water conservancy construction, which mainly includes two adjacent pipes 1 to be connected. The pipes 1 can be used for water transportation during the construction of water conservancy projects. Since the length of the pipes 1 is limited, the two pipes 1 need to be connected. There are various ways to connect the two drainage pipes 1. The choice of these methods usually depends on factors such as the material, diameter, working pressure, usage environment and construction conditions of the pipes 1. Commonly used pipe 1 connection methods include threaded connection, flange connection, welding, etc., to tightly connect the two pipes 1 and prevent water leakage during water transportation. The above is an introduction to the existing waterproof structure for water conservancy construction.
[0032] As can be seen from the above, the existing waterproof structures for water conservancy construction have the following defects when in use. During water conservancy construction, due to different geological environments, some foundations are hard and some are soft. In soft foundations, especially in silty areas, uneven settlement of two adjacent pipes is likely to occur, causing loosening of the connection of pipe 1, loosening of threaded connections, and easy accumulation of dirt and moisture in the gaps of flanges, leading to corrosion problems and leakage of water during transmission. Based on the above problems, this utility model adopts the following improvement method to solve them.
[0033] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a waterproof structure for water conservancy construction includes two pipes 1 for water transport. A leak-proof component is installed between the two pipes 1. The leak-proof component includes two connecting frames 3 fixedly installed at the joint of the two pipes 1 and detachably connected by fasteners 2; an anti-settlement pad 4 installed at the bottom of the pipe 1 and detachably connected to the connecting frames 3 for supporting the pipe 1; and a sealant installed between the two pipes 1 to fill the gap at the joint. Through the use of the leak-proof component, especially the sealant, the gap at the joint of the two pipes 1 can be effectively filled, enabling the two pipes 1 to be tightly connected, thereby significantly improving the overall waterproof performance and ensuring that the water diversion process in water conservancy construction will not be affected by leakage. The anti-settlement pad 4 not only provides additional support for the pipes 1, reducing the risk of pipe 1 sinking due to soil settlement or water erosion, but also enhances the stability of the entire structure, ensuring the long-term safe operation of the water conservancy facility. By effectively preventing water leakage, this structure helps protect water resources, reduce water waste, and conforms to the concept of sustainable development.
[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 1As shown in Figure 3, the connecting frame 3 is a closed ring, and the cross-section of the connecting frame 3 is U-shaped. The connecting frames 3 on two adjacent pipes 1 are arranged opposite each other. The connecting frames 3 are located on the outside of the pipes 1 and are similar in shape to the pipes 1. Each of the two connecting frames 3 has a receiving cavity 5 on the side away from each other, so that the fastener 2 can connect and fix the two connecting frames 3. The fastener 2 can be a bolt 13. Screw holes are opened on both connecting frames 3. The bolt 13 is passed through the two connecting frames 3 along the screw holes and the tail end of the bolt 13 is fixed with a nut. The two ends of the bolt 13 are respectively located in the receiving cavities 5 of the two connecting frames 3, which can protect them from rainwater erosion and ensure the firmness of the bolt 13 connection, thereby ensuring the firmness of the connection between the two pipes 1.
[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the anti-settling pad 4 is embedded in the bottom of the two connecting frames 3 in the middle. A sealing gasket 6 is provided between the anti-settling pad 4 and the pipe 1. The middle of the anti-settling pad 4 is directly opposite the joint of the two pipes 1, which can support the pipe 1. At the same time, a rubber sealing gasket 6 is provided between the pipe 1 and the anti-settling pad 4, that is, on both sides of the two connecting frames 3, which can fill the gap between the pipe 1 and the sedimentation pad to prevent silt from entering and to avoid uneven settlement of the pipe 1 and erosion by soil and silt in the soft area, which would cause leakage at the joint of the pipe 1.
[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 3-4 As shown, the sealing element includes a first sealing element disposed at the joint of two pipes 1 and a second sealing element disposed between two connecting frames 3. The first sealing element includes a connector 7 symmetrically fixedly connected to the joint of the two pipes 1, a first sealing plug 8 disposed on one of the connectors 7, and a first sealing slot 9 opened inside the other connector 7. The second sealing element includes a second sealing plug 10 disposed on the connecting frame 3 on the side away from the first sealing plug 8 and a second sealing slot 11 opened on the connecting frame 3 on the side away from the first sealing slot 9. When connecting pipes 1, the two connecting frames 3 are aligned and fitted together, causing the first sealing plug 8 to move. The first sealing block 8 is inserted into the first sealing slot 9 to achieve the first seal at the joint of the two pipes 1. The second sealing block 10 is inserted into the second sealing slot 11 to achieve the second seal at the joint of the two pipes 1. The first sealing block 8 and the second sealing block 10 are in opposite directions and are both made of rubber. They are flexible and can adapt to the slight deformation at the joint of the pipes 1. When the joint of the two pipes 1 becomes loose, the first sealing block 8 and the second sealing block move in opposite directions, which can extend the length of the sealing block. That is, when the first sealing block 8 moves out of the first slot and the second sealing block 10 moves out of the second sealing slot 11 at the same time, the pipe 1 can leak.
[0037] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-3As shown, at least one clamping plate 12 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the anti-settling pad 4. The clamping plate 12 is connected to the connecting frame 3 by a fixing member 2. The anti-settling material can be made of reinforced hexagonal mesh and hot-dip galvanized steel wire composite material or concrete, which can support the pipe 1 and prevent the pipe 1 from settling. The fixing member 2 can be a bolt 13. The clamping plate 12 and the connecting frame 3 are connected by the fixing member 2 to realize the connection between the anti-settling material and the pipe 1 and prevent the anti-settling pad 4 from shifting from the pipe 1. Multiple clamping plates 12 with bolts 13 can be set on the anti-settling pad 4. The clamping plate 12 can be hinged to the bottom of the dustproof pad. When the bolt 13 on the clamping plate 12 passes through the corresponding hole on the connecting frame 3, the nut is tightened to the end of the bolt 13. In order to increase the firmness of the bolt 13, a rubber sheet 14 can be set between the nut and the connecting plate.
