[0038] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 This application illustrates a negative pressure gravel cleaning device for the bottom of a continuous underground wall, used to clean gravel in narrow areas (bottom of the slot). Specifically, it includes: a vertical pipe 2 and an air source system. A discharge assembly is installed at the top of the vertical pipe 2 to discharge the discharged gravel to a suitable location. A flared opening 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the vertical pipe 2, located inside the slot 1. The flared opening 3 has a structure that is smaller at the top and larger at the bottom. The air source system includes an air compressor 7 and an air delivery hose 6. The air outlet of the air compressor 7 is connected to the air delivery hose 6. A metal plate 5 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the flared opening 3. The metal plate 5 is sheet-like and can be arc-shaped, multi-bent, etc. The metal plate 5 and the inner wall of the flared opening 3 form an upwardly sloping airflow channel. The end of the air delivery hose 6 away from the air compressor 7 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the flared opening 3, and the air delivery hose 6 communicates with the airflow channel.
[0039] When in use, align the bottom of the horn 3 with the gap in the underground continuous wall, and the air source system (air compressor 7) is activated. High-pressure gas is injected through the air delivery hose 6 and, guided by the airflow channel, the airflow is injected upward along the vertical pipe 2. This creates a Venturi effect inside the horn, and the resulting negative pressure adsorbs the crushed material, which flows upward along the vertical pipe 2 and is ejected from the discharge component, thus cleaning the crushed stone at the bottom of the slot.
[0040] In one embodiment, the vertical pipe 2 is a segmented threaded connection pipe, with two adjacent pipe sections fixedly installed by threads.
[0041] In one embodiment, the vertical pipe 2 is a segmented flange-connected pipe, with two adjacent pipe sections fixedly installed through a flange structure.
[0042] The segmented, multi-section, detachable / assembleable pipe structure facilitates transportation and installation. When dealing with slots of different heights, the number of pipe sections can be selected according to requirements.
[0043] In one embodiment, a flexible sealing skirt 4 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the flared mouth 3. The flexible sealing skirt 4 is made of wear-resistant rubber material, which can protect the bottom of the flared mouth 3. Generally, the height of the flexible sealing skirt 4 is 40-90mm, which can enhance the fit between the bottom of the flexible sealing skirt 4 and the irregular bottom surface.
[0044] In one embodiment, the discharge assembly includes: a horizontal pipe fixedly installed at the top of the vertical pipe 2 and arranged horizontally; a conical filter element 9 fixedly installed at the port of the horizontal pipe away from the vertical pipe 2; and a branch pipe 10 arranged obliquely downwards fixedly connected to the side of the horizontal pipe.
[0045] The horizontal pipe is used to guide gravel and debris and adjust the direction of airflow. The conical filter element 9 can filter gravel and debris and allow airflow to flow out. The branch pipe 10 is used to guide gravel and debris to fall downwards.
[0046] In one embodiment, it further includes: a slag collection trough 8 disposed on the ground plane at the top of the slot 1, with the bottom end of the branch pipe 10 located inside the slag collection trough 8.
[0047] The slag collection trough 8 is used to store gravel, debris, and other items that fall from the bottom of the branch pipe 10.
[0048] In one embodiment, a flexible connection 13 is provided on the horizontal pipe and on the section of the branch pipe 10 away from the vertical pipe 2. A base plate 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal pipe and on the section of the branch pipe 10 away from the vertical pipe 2. A foot 11 is hinged on the base plate 12 and fixedly installed on the ground plane at the top of the slot 1.
[0049] Through the designed flexible connection part 13, the user can press down on the horizontal pipe above the branch pipe 10, which can deform downwards, so that the horizontal pipe part on the base plate 12 is tilted. In this way, the gravel in the horizontal pipe part on the base plate 12 can fall down and fall into the slag collection tank 8 through the branch pipe 10.
[0050] In one embodiment, a section of the horizontal pipe located away from the vertical pipe 2 and a region on the horizontal pipe located at the top of the branch pipe 10 form a low-pressure section a. Solids such as gravel and debris fall downwards under the influence of gravity in the low-pressure section a, and can fall more effectively from the branch pipe 10.
[0051] In one embodiment, the angle between the airflow channel and the vertical pipe 2 is generally designed to be 30°-60°, such as 36°, 42°, 50°, etc., to ensure that the airflow is obliquely upward.
[0052] Other embodiments of the present invention will readily occur to those skilled in the art upon consideration of the specification and practice of the disclosure herein. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the present invention that follow the general principles of the present invention and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein.
