Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel pipe jacking construction, and in particular to a vertical limiting device for pipe jacking construction. Background Technology

[0002] In current urban underground pipeline construction and integrated utility tunnel laying projects, traditional open-cut construction methods are prone to causing a series of problems such as traffic disruption, road surface damage, and disturbance to existing underground pipelines, making it difficult to meet the requirements of minimizing construction disturbance and refining operation and maintenance in high-density built-up areas. Against this backdrop, trenchless pipe jacking technology has become the core construction method for urban underground space development due to its advantages such as minimal impact on the surface environment, high construction efficiency, and good safety.

[0003] The initial stage of pipe jacking construction is a critical control link in the entire project, directly affecting the trajectory accuracy and construction safety of subsequent advancement. This stage requires accurately guiding the pipe jacking machine from the starting shaft to the pre-set underground axis. However, under adverse geological conditions such as soft soil and water-rich soil, the tunnel face is highly susceptible to instability and collapse, causing the pipe jacking machine head to sink. Simultaneously, due to low stratum bearing capacity and weak lateral restraint, the machine head's autonomous correction ability is significantly limited, easily leading to trajectory deviation. Once deviation occurs, it may not only damage the tunnel portal sealing device (such as water-stop rubber), causing mud and water leakage, but also affect the jacking accuracy, delay the construction period, and in severe cases, even lead to starting failure, jeopardizing the safety and success of the entire project. Therefore, a vertical limiting device for pipe jacking construction is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a vertical limiting device for pipe jacking construction, so as to solve the problems of pipe jacking head sinking, trajectory deviation and tunnel portal sealing failure caused by the self-weight of the jacking head and insufficient soil bearing capacity in the initial stage of existing pipe jacking.

[0018] like Figure 1-7As shown, a vertical limiting device for pipe jacking construction includes a pipe jacking rail 5, a pipe body 6 placed on the pipe jacking rail 5, and a vertical limiting device erected outside the pipe jacking rail 5 and the pipe body 6. The vertical limiting device includes a portal frame 1 and a sliding limiting component 3 set on the inner top wall of the portal frame 1. The sliding limiting component 3 moves in contact with the top of the pipe body 6. An anti-pull-out component 4 anchored in the ground is also provided on the portal frame. A diagonal brace 2 is provided on the side of the portal frame 1 near the jacking direction of the pipe body 6.

[0019] With this design, the upper part of the tube 6 can be limited by the gantry frame 1 during the jacking process, thereby preventing it from tilting due to the top-heavy working condition. During this process, the sliding limit component 3 can reduce the friction caused by the pressure on the steel pipe by resisting the movement of the tube 6, thus avoiding affecting the normal jacking of the tube 6. In addition, the diagonal brace 2 and the anti-pull-out component 4 can effectively enhance its overall stability and anti-pull-out ability, thereby achieving the above-mentioned limiting effect.

[0020] Furthermore, the portal frame 1 includes two uprights 10 and a crossbeam 11 set on the top of the two uprights 10. There are two diagonal braces 2, which are welded to the side of the uprights 10 near the tube body 6 in the pushing direction. The diagonal braces 2 include diagonal bracing rods 20, and a reinforcing rod 21 is welded between the middle of the diagonal bracing rods 20 and the bottom of the uprights 10.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, the crossbeam 11 is provided with a gap 112 for the pull-out resisting component 4 to pass through. In this embodiment, the crossbeam 11 specifically includes two vertically arranged I-beams 110, with a gap 112 formed between the two I-beams 110. The I-beams 110 can be fixed or placed on the two uprights 10. The fixing method can be welding or bolt connection. In this embodiment, the I-beams 110 are placed on the two uprights 10.

[0022] In addition, a support plate 111 is welded to the top of the support frame 10. The support plate 111 is located on the side of the crossbeam 11 near the jacking direction of the tube body 6. It is used to limit the crossbeam 11 in the jacking direction, provide it with support force, and prevent the main beam 1 from sliding forward during use.

[0023] Furthermore, there are two anti-pull-out components 4, which are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the crossbeam 11. Specifically, they include embedded parts 40 pre-embedded in the ground and anchor rods 41 connected to the embedded parts 40. The top of the anchor rods 41 passes through the gap 112 and is provided with fasteners 42.

[0024] The embedded part 40 includes an embedded plate 401, which can be a steel plate. An embedded rod 402 is welded on the embedded plate 401. The embedded rod 402 is an L-shaped fine-rolled threaded steel bar. Its horizontal section is welded to the embedded plate 401. A threaded end is provided at the top and passes through the ground. A connecting sleeve 403 is installed on the threaded end.

[0025] It should be noted that the connecting sleeve 403 is a common commercially available steel bar connecting sleeve, so it will not be described here.

[0026] Anchor rod 41 is a vertical fine-rolled threaded steel bar with threaded ends at both the top and bottom. The threaded end at the bottom is connected to the connecting sleeve 403, thereby realizing its connection with the embedded part 40.

[0027] Fastener 42 includes a pad 420 with a size larger than the gap 112. The pad 420 may be a steel plate. The pad 420 is placed on the gap 112 and a fastening nut 421 with a threaded attachment installed on the top thread of the anchor rod 41 is tightened on it.

[0028] This design creates an effective pull-out anchoring structure.

[0029] The sliding limit assembly 3 includes a limit roller 317, which can be fixed to the bottom of the crossbeam 11 by welding.

[0030] In another embodiment, a lifting adjustment structure is also included, wherein the limiting roller 317 is movably and heightably mounted on the lifting adjustment structure, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting its specific height.

[0031] The lifting and adjusting structure includes an adjusting seat 310, which is adapted to the shape of the cavity formed between the two I-beams 110 and is installed therein. The adjusting seat 310 is provided with two guide holes 311 and one rotating hole 312. The rotating hole 312 is located between the two guide holes 311. An internally threaded sleeve 313 is rotatably disposed in the rotating hole 312. The internally threaded sleeve 313 is rotatably disposed in the rotating hole 312 via a bearing, and a concave-convex fit is provided between the internally threaded sleeve 313 and the rotating hole 312. The structure includes two guide rods 315 and a lead screw 316 on the top of the limiting roller 317. The two guide rods 315 are movably inserted through the corresponding guide holes 311. The lead screw 316 is threaded through the internal thread sleeve 313. The lengths of the lead screw 316 and the guide rods 315 meet the requirements of the lifting range of the limiting roller 317. In addition, the two ends of the lead screw 316 and the guide rods 315 pass through their cavities through the gap 112. The top of the internal thread sleeve 313 passes through the gap 112 and is provided with a rotation control part 314.

[0032] With this design, the rotation of the inner threaded sleeve 313 can be controlled by the rotation control unit 314, and then the height of the limiting roller 317 can be adjusted by the lead screw 316 installed in its internal thread, as well as the guide rod 315 and the guide hole 311.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the rotation control unit 314 is a driven gear, and a drive mechanism 32 for driving the driven gear to rotate is provided on the crossbeam 11. The drive mechanism 32 includes a drive device 320 and a transmission gear 321 that meshes with the rotation control unit 314. Specifically, the drive device 320 is a transmission combination device of a motor and a reducer. In this embodiment, the driven gear and the transmission gear 321 are compatible bevel gears.

[0034] With this design, the height of the limit roller 317 can be adjusted by controlling the operation of the drive device 320.

[0035] In use, firstly, embed the pre-embedded part 40 in the concrete base plate as the force point of the pull-out component 4. Then, fix the two uprights 10, the diagonal brace 2 and the support plate 111 of the portal frame 1 in the concrete base plate. Then, place the pipe body 6 on the jacking pipe slide rail 5, install the sliding limit component 3 at the bottom center of the crossbeam 11, and place the crossbeam 11 on the two uprights 10 so that the sliding limit component 3 is located at the highest point of the pipe body 6. Then, connect the anchor rod 41 to the pre-embedded part 40, and tighten it with fastener 42 after passing through the gap 112 on the crossbeam 11 from the top, thereby pulling the crossbeam 11 and limiting the upward displacement of the pipe body 6.

The protection scope of this utility model should be the technical solution described in the claims, including equivalent substitutions of the technical features described in the claims. That is, equivalent substitutions and improvements within this scope are also within the protection scope of this utility model.
