Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of construction equipment technology, and in particular to a copper waterstop protection device. Background Technology
[0002] During the concrete pouring process of high arch dams, copper waterstops are embedded in the pre-cast blocks to enable the concrete structure to adapt to expansion, contraction, deformation, and water stoppage.
[0003] Because the dam concrete preparation time is long, two problems arise: firstly, wastewater from the concrete pouring process can contaminate the copper waterstops; secondly, the composite sealing material used with the copper waterstops expands rapidly when exposed to water, requiring replacement before later pouring, resulting in material waste. Thirdly, since the copper waterstops on the later-poured side are exposed to the open environment for extended periods, they may deform or even be damaged during the installation of reinforcing bars or the removal of formwork. Therefore, current copper waterstops suffer from drawbacks such as resource waste and susceptibility to damage. Utility Model Content

[0029] See Figure 1 The diagram shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a copper waterstop protection device 10 in one embodiment of this application. The copper waterstop 30 is disposed in the pre-cast block 20 and the post-cast block 40, and is symmetrically arranged with the transverse seam 21 as the axis. The copper waterstop protection device 10 is used to protect the copper waterstop 30 on the side of the post-cast block 40 that has not been cast.
[0030] The copper waterstop protection device 10 includes a protective cover 100 and a fixing member 200. The protective cover 100 includes a cover body 110 and a connecting member 120. The cover body 110 has a receiving cavity 110A and an opening 110B. The opening 110B communicates with the receiving cavity 110A. The cover body 110 is used to cover the copper waterstop 30 so that the copper waterstop 30 is set in the receiving cavity 110A through the opening 110B. The connecting member 120 is connected to the cover body 110.
[0031] The fastener 200 is connected to the connector 120, and the fastener 200 is used to connect the connector 120 to the precast block 20 on which the copper waterstop 30 is installed.
[0032] In one embodiment, the connector 120 is a plate-shaped structure. The side of the connector 120 is connected to the side of the opening 110B of the cover 110, and the extension surface of the connector 120 is perpendicular to the side of the connected cover 110, so that the connector 120 fits tightly against the horizontal seam when in use.
[0033] The copper waterstop protection device 10 described in this application embodiment covers the copper waterstop 30 extending from the pre-cast block 20 with a cover 110, that is, the copper waterstop 30 is placed in the receiving cavity 110A through the opening 110B, then the connector 120 is connected to the cover 110, and then the connector 120 is connected to the pre-cast block 20 with a fixing member 200, thereby fixing the cover 110 and the pre-cast block 20 and protecting the copper waterstop 30.
[0034] The copper waterstop protection device 10 described in this application protects the copper waterstop 30 on one side of the post-cast block 40 by using a protective cover 100, which avoids the composite sealing and waterstop material used with the copper waterstop 30 from being wasted due to water contact, and also prevents the copper waterstop 30 from being damaged by collision. It has the advantages of being easy to use and having a good protective effect.
[0035] Combination Figure 2 The diagram shows a schematic of the protective cover 100 of the copper waterstop protection device 10 according to one embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, the connector 120 is provided with a connecting hole 120A, and the fastener 200 is a fastener. The fastener is connected to the precast block 20 through the connecting hole 120A, so that the connector 120 is connected to the precast block 20. By providing the connecting hole 120A on the connector 120, the fastener is passed through the connecting hole 120A and then installed on the precast block 20, thereby fixing the connector 120 to the precast block 20, which also fixes the cover 110, thereby protecting the copper waterstop 30.
[0036] In one exemplary embodiment, the fastener is a bolt or screw, which is installed by passing through the connection hole 120A.
[0037] In another embodiment, the fastener 200 is a connecting buckle, which is installed in the connecting hole 120A. The precast block 20 has a connecting groove, and the connecting buckle is installed in the connecting groove. By installing the connecting buckle on the connecting hole 120A, providing a connecting groove on the precast block 20 that mates with the connecting port, and then snapping the connecting buckle into the connecting groove, the protective cover 100 is fixed, thereby protecting the copper waterstop 30.
[0038] In an optional embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the fastener is an insulation nail 210, which connects to the precast block 20 through a connecting hole 120A, thus connecting the connector 120 to the precast block 20. The protective cover 100 can be directly fixed to the precast block 20 by drilling holes in it and using the insulation nail 210. The protective cover 100 can be reused after the insulation nail 210 is removed, and any defects caused by the insulation nail 210 can be repaired, offering the advantage of convenient operation.
[0039] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the insulation nail 210 includes a nail body 211, an expansion anchor 212, and a washer 213. The expansion anchor 212 is disposed on the precast block 20, and the nail body 211 passes through the washer 213 and the connecting hole 120A to connect to the expansion anchor 212. In use, holes are drilled in the precast block 20, and then the expansion anchor 212 is inserted into the mounting holes. The nail body 211 passes through the washer 213 and the connecting hole 120A and connects to the expansion anchor 212, thereby providing a stable anchoring force for the entire protective cover 100.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the protective cover 100 includes at least two, which are detachably connected sequentially. Each protective cover 100 corresponds one-to-one with a copper waterstop 30 installed on the pre-cast block 20. When multiple copper waterstops 30 need protection, the multiple protective covers 100 can be connected together to form a single unit for the copper waterstop protection device 10, improving its sealing performance and thus enhancing the protective effect. After use, the connected protective covers 100 can be disassembled for convenient transportation or storage. Of course, in other embodiments, the multiple protective covers 100 can also be integrally connected to form the copper waterstop protection device 10.
[0041] In one optional embodiment, the cover 110 is provided with a buckle, and the connector 120 is provided with a claw. Alternatively, the cover 110 is provided with a claw, and the connector 120 is provided with a buckle, with the buckle of one protective cover 100 detachably connected to the claw of the other protective cover 100. By providing buckles and claws on the cover 110 and the connector 120 respectively, the cover 110 and the connector 120 can be easily connected or disassembled, which has the advantage of ease of use.
[0042] In an optional embodiment, a sealing gasket is provided between the fastener 200 and the connector 120. By providing a sealing gasket between the fastener 200 and the connector 120, the sealing performance between the fastener 200 and the connector 120 is improved, preventing rainwater from seeping from the installation location of the fastener 200 and enhancing the protective effect of the copper waterstop 30.
[0043] In one optional embodiment, a sealant is provided at the connection between the cover 110 and the precast block 20. In other embodiments, a sealing ring may also be provided between the connection between the cover 110 and the precast block 20. By providing sealant or a sealing ring between the cover 110 and the precast block 20, the opening 110B of the cover 110 is tightly connected to the precast block 20, thereby improving the sealing performance of the cover 110 and enhancing the protective effect of the copper waterstop 30.
[0044] In an optional embodiment, the accommodating cavity 110A has a U-shaped, semi-circular, or rectangular groove-shaped cross-section on the first plane. The first plane is perpendicular to the extension surface of the copper waterstop 30. The shape of the accommodating cavity 110A of the cover 110 can be configured according to the specific shape of the copper waterstop 30, thereby allowing the cover 110 to tightly wrap the exposed portion of the copper waterstop 30, forming a physical protective layer.
[0045] In an optional embodiment, the cross-sectional area of the cover 110 gradually increases from the bottom to the opening 110B. By gradually increasing the size of the opening of the cover 110, it is easier to fit the cover 110 onto the copper waterstop 30, which has the advantage of convenient operation.
[0046] In an optional embodiment, the inside of the cover 110 is provided with a drainage channel. By providing a drainage channel, when moisture seeps into the copper water-stop protection device 10, the moisture can be guided out of the drainage channel in a timely manner, avoiding affecting the copper water-stop 30, and has the advantage of good protection effect.
[0047] In one optional embodiment, the protective cover 100 is made of plastic or metal. In an exemplary embodiment, the plastic material can be a high-strength plastic such as PVC or HDPE. The metal material can be galvanized iron sheet, which is lightweight and easy for operators to handle and install.
[0048] In an optional embodiment, the protective cover 100 further includes a strain gauge and a leakage monitor, which are disposed in the accommodating cavity 110A. The strain gauge and leakage monitor are used to monitor the stress state and leakage of the copper water-stop protection device 10 in real time, so as to avoid damage or leakage and improve the protection effect.
[0049] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0050] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
