Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to trenchless pipeline repair construction technology, specifically to a grouting device suitable for trenchless pipeline repair, and also includes a grouting device assembly suitable for trenchless pipeline repair. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, urban underground space is becoming increasingly important. However, traditional excavation methods not only cause environmental pollution but also severely impact urban infrastructure such as transportation, communication, and water supply systems. Therefore, the development of trenchless technologies is receiving increasing attention.

[0003] my country's trenchless technology started late and has a small market share. Although the trenchless industry has been around for more than ten years, and most construction companies have experienced long project construction periods, the promotion of trenchless repair methods has been difficult because the materials used in the past were entirely imported, resulting in high repair costs. However, my country's trenchless material production has matured, and trenchless technology is gradually gaining attention in the industry.

[0004] In recent years, trenchless technology has been applied in industries closely related to underground pipelines, such as municipal engineering, gas, telecommunications, and power. Urban water supply and drainage pipelines are essential infrastructure in modern cities, serving as the backbone of urban water supply, water pollution control, and urban drainage management. With the continuous improvement of urban construction, underground pipeline management departments are increasingly inclined to use trenchless pipeline technology. Due to the unpredictability of urban development, the complexity of pipeline networks and roads, and the influence of factors such as pipe material quality, construction technology level, underground environment, and transported media, comprehensive excavation and replacement of buried pipelines is often impossible to resolve in a short period, and can also damage urban roads, causing environmental pollution and traffic congestion. To ensure that newly paved roads are not excavated during urban construction, various cities have formulated corresponding regulations. For example, the "Guangzhou Municipal Underground Pipeline Management Measures" explicitly stipulates that "underground pipeline construction units shall not excavate roads to lay underground pipelines within five years after the completion of newly built, reconstructed, or expanded urban roads." This also means that if pipeline problems occur during this period, trenchless repair projects will be the only option.

[0005] In existing technologies, a relatively long steel tubular grouting head is generally used, which needs to be removed and restored to its original state after grouting. The steel tubular grouting head is directly connected to the grouting pipe, which is connected to the grouting pump. Under the action of the grouting pump, the grout is injected into the soil layer along the grouting pipe and the grouting head. This structure does not consider ease of movement, adjustable grout levels within the pipe, or the issue of leaving the grouting head in place. Utility Model Content

[0022] 3. The design of the grouting nail is simple in structure and easy to operate.

[0023] 4. The grouting gun head is used as a switch and for flow adjustment, allowing manual adjustment of the grouting flow inside the pipeline without the need to adjust the grouting pump on the ground, making it easy to control the grouting quality in real time.

[0024] 5. The sealed connection prevents grout leakage.

[0025] 6. The connection is made by threaded fitting and heat fusion, ensuring a reliable connection and preventing grout leakage. Furthermore, stainless steel clamps are used to increase connection strength and sealing.

[0026] 7. Grouting nails are used to repair the soil layer outside the pipeline without excavation. This method can accurately reinforce the soil outside the collapsed part of the pipeline, making the soil around the collapsed part more stable.
