Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a pile extraction device for extracting existing piles (buried piles) driven into the ground, and more particularly to a technique for safely extracting piles using a device of simple structure. [Background technology]

[0002] For example, large architectural structures such as buildings, apartment buildings, and factories support the load of the buildings by using concrete piles buried in the solid ground. When rebuilding this type of architectural structure, it is necessary to pull out and remove the old piles buried deep in the ground after demolishing the old building.

[0003] For such extraction of existing piles, there is a pile extraction device as described in Patent Document 1. This type of pile extraction device is attached to a base machine such as a pile driver via a rotary drive device such as an auger device, and proceeds to the existing pile while excavating the ground, clamping the existing pile and pulling it up to the ground.

[0004] Furthermore, the pile extraction device described in Patent Document 1 comprises an inner tube having a hollow cylindrical shape, a pair of retaining pieces attached to the lower end of the inner tube so as to face each other in the diameter direction of the inner tube, an outer tube having a hollow cylindrical shape, and a digging blade provided at the lower end of the outer tube, and the pair of retaining pieces are rotatable between an open position in which the lower ends of the pair of retaining pieces are separated from each other so as to open the downward opening of the inner tube, and a closed position in which the lower ends of the pair of retaining pieces are close to each other so as to close the downward opening of the inner tube.

[0005] In this pile extraction device, when clamping an existing pile to pull it up, the tips of each holding piece abut against the existing pile as the holding pieces move from the open position to the closed position, and the existing pile is clamped. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0006] [Patent Document 1] JP 2018-111984 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] In the pile extractor described in Patent Document 1, each of the pair of holding pieces is supported by a shaft, and a rotating shaft is formed for each holding piece. However, the more rotating shafts there are, the more complicated the structure of the device becomes, and the higher the manufacturing costs become. In addition, when the pile extractor is rotated by the rotary drive device to excavate, if there are two rotating shafts, the shaft support part protrudes inside the inner tube (casing), which causes a problem that the device is more likely to break down due to the soil pressure inside the casing.

[0008] The present invention has been proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a pile extraction device of a simple structure that can efficiently and safely pull out piles from the ground using a single rotating shaft. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] (1) The pile extraction device of the present invention comprises a hollow cylindrical casing, a pair of buckets provided on the lower end side of the casing, and a pair of support portions which rotatably support the pair of buckets, the pair of support portions being provided at opposing positions spaced apart circumferentially of the casing, and one bucket and the other bucket being supported by the same shaft.

[0010] According to this pile extraction device, the buckets are supported by the same shaft, so the structure is simpler than that of conventional devices using multiple rotating shafts, which reduces manufacturing costs and makes maintenance of the device easier. This makes it possible to provide a pile extraction device with a simple structure that can efficiently and safely extract piles from the ground.

[0011] (2) In the above-mentioned pile extraction device, the bucket is formed by curving a plate material into an arc shape so as to fit the inner diameter of the casing.

[0012] (3) In the pile extraction device, the casing rotates in a circumferential direction of a hollow cylinder, and has a first drilling bit on a rotational path on the lower end sides of the pair of shaft supports.

[0013] (4) The pile extraction device has a cylinder mechanism for rotating the bucket outside the casing.

[0014] (5) The pile extraction device has a second drilling bit on a rotational track on the lower end side of the cylinder mechanism.

[0015] (6) The pile extraction system of the present invention comprises a hollow cylindrical casing, a pair of buckets provided on the lower end side of the casing, and a pair of support parts for rotatably supporting the pair of buckets, the pair of support parts being provided at opposing positions spaced apart circumferentially of the casing, and one bucket and the other bucket being supported by the same shaft.The pile extraction device uses a pile extraction device in which, with the casing surrounding a buried pile, the pair of buckets rotate from an open state to a closed state so as to clamp the buried pile, and clamp the buried pile and lift it to the ground. Effect of the Invention

[0016] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a pile extraction device and a pile extraction system having a simple structure that can efficiently and safely extract piles from the ground using a single rotating shaft. can. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0018] Hereinafter, a pile extraction system S according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The pile extraction system S is used to pull up an existing pile buried in the ground to the ground.

[0019] <Configuration of the pile removal system> As shown in Fig. 1, the pile extraction system S includes a large base machine 1 such as a pile driver, a rotary drive device 2 such as an auger device attached to the tip of a leader of the base machine 1, and a pile extraction device 3 attached to the auger device. According to the pile extraction system S of this embodiment, the pile extraction device 3 excavates the ground underground, and clamps or cuts the existing pile with a bucket chucking mechanism 6 described later and pulls it up to the ground.

[0020] In addition, in the pile extraction system S according to this embodiment, since the rotary drive device 2 rotates around an axis in the vertical direction in Fig. 1, in the following description, the vertical direction is also referred to as the rotational axis direction or the axial direction, the rotational direction relative to the rotational axis direction is also referred to as the rotational circumferential direction or the circumferential direction, and the direction perpendicular to the axial direction and the circumferential direction is also referred to as the rotational radial direction. Furthermore, the downward direction in the rotational axis direction is also referred to as the tip side or the tip direction, and the upward direction is also referred to as the base side or the base direction.

[0021] <Configuration of the pile removal device 3> As shown in Figures 2 to 6, the pile extraction device 3 comprises a hollow cylindrical casing 5, a bucket chucking mechanism 6 provided at the tip side of the casing 5, a cylinder mechanism 8 for rotating the bucket chucking mechanism 6, and a plurality of drilling bits 9 provided at the tip of the casing 5.

[0022] 2, the casing 5 includes a first cylindrical member 51 connected to the rotary drive device 2, at least one second cylindrical member 52 connected below the first cylindrical member 51, and a third cylindrical member 53 connected to the lowest second cylindrical member 52. The casing 5 is formed in a long hollow cylindrical shape as a whole by continuously connecting the hollow cylindrical first cylindrical member 51, the hollow cylindrical second cylindrical member, and the hollow cylindrical third cylindrical member 53.

[0023] Each cylindrical member constituting the casing 5 has an inner diameter capable of enclosing an existing pile therein, and the number of second cylindrical members 52 in the casing 5 is adjusted according to the depth of the existing pile. In this embodiment, the casing 5 includes two second cylindrical members 52. Each cylindrical member is formed using a steel pipe or the like.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 3, the first cylindrical member 51 has a connection part 51a that connects to the rotary drive device 2, and is connected to the rotary drive device 2 to rotate. The lower end of the first cylindrical member 51 has a first connection part 51b that connects to the second cylindrical member 52. The first cylindrical member 51 is formed in a roughly hollow cylindrical shape, and is provided on its outer periphery with a pair of telescopic parts 80 that constitute the cylinder mechanism 8 on the upper side, and a first rod-shaped part 81 that extends from each telescopic part 80. The cylinder mechanism 8 is a hydraulic cylinder in which the telescopic parts 80 are extended and contracted by hydraulic pressure.

[0025] 4, the second cylindrical member 52 is formed in a generally hollow cylindrical shape, and includes a second connecting portion 52b at the upper end and a third connecting portion 52c at the lower end. Furthermore, the second cylindrical member 52 is provided on its outer periphery with a second rod-shaped portion 82 constituting the cylinder mechanism 8, and as the expandable portion 80 expands and contracts, the second rod-shaped portion 82 is displaced up and down via the rod-shaped portion connected to the upper side.

[0026] In this embodiment, the casing 5 includes two second cylindrical members 52 connected vertically, and in the upper second cylindrical member 52, the second connecting portion 52b is connected to the first connecting portion 51b of the first cylindrical member 51, and the third connecting portion 52c is connected to the second connecting portion 52b of the lower second cylindrical member 52. In the lower second cylindrical member 52, the third connecting portion 52c is connected to a fourth connecting portion 53c of a third cylindrical member 53 described later.

[0027] 5, the third cylindrical member 53 is formed in a generally hollow cylindrical shape, and has a fourth connecting portion 53c at its upper end. The third cylindrical member 53 is provided with a bucket chucking mechanism 6 on its tip side, and also has a plurality of excavation bits 9 at its tip.

[0028] The bucket chucking mechanism 6 includes a pair of buckets 60 provided inside the third cylindrical member 53 , a shaft support portion 63 supporting each bucket 60 , and a plurality of clamping claws 61 provided on the tip side of each bucket 60 .

[0029] Each bucket 60 has a shape obtained by curving a plate material into an arc. The radius of curvature of the bucket 60 is curved to be approximately the same as or slightly smaller than the radius of curvature of the third cylindrical member 53. A plurality of clamping claws 61 are provided so as to be aligned on the curved plate-shaped portion of each bucket 60.

[0030] One end and the other end of each bucket 60 are pivotally supported by a pair of pivotal supports 63 on the third cylindrical member 53. One end of one bucket 60 and one end of the other bucket 60 are pivotally supported by one of the pivotal supports 63. The other end of one bucket 60 and the other end of the other bucket 60 are pivotally supported by the other pivotal support 63.

[0031] Of the multiple excavation bits 9, a first excavation bit 9a is provided on a rotation orbit on the lower end side of the shaft support part 63 when the casing 5 rotates. This first excavation bit 9a corresponds to being provided on the rotation orbit of a clamping claw 61 provided at the tip of the bucket 60 when a bucket chucking mechanism 6 described later is in an open state. In addition, multiple second excavation bits 9b are provided on a rotation orbit on the lower end side of a connecting rod-shaped part 85 of the cylinder mechanism 8 on the side peripheral wall of the third cylindrical member 53. Furthermore, multiple third excavation bits 9c are provided at the lower end of the side peripheral wall of the third cylindrical member 53.

[0032] Furthermore, the third cylindrical member 53 is provided on its outer periphery with a third rod-shaped portion 83 constituting the cylinder mechanism 8, and an insertion portion 84 which passes through an insertion hole (not shown) provided in the third cylindrical member 53, and as the expansion and contraction portion 80 provided in the first cylindrical member 51 expands and contracts, the third rod-shaped portion 83 is displaced up and down via the second rod-shaped portion 82 connected to the upper side of the third rod-shaped portion 83, and the insertion portion 84 is displaced diagonally up and down through the insertion hole.

[0033] Specifically, a shaft support portion 63 is formed by a pin that penetrates the side peripheral wall of the third cylindrical member 53 and the bucket 60. Each bucket 60 is rotatable about the pin. One shaft support portion 63 and the other shaft support portion 63 are provided at an interval of 180° in the circumferential direction of the cylindrical portion so as to face the cylindrical portion of the third cylindrical member 53. In other words, one bucket 60 and the other bucket 60 are supported by the same shaft.

[0034] Each insertion portion 84 is inserted from the outside to the inside of the third cylindrical member 53 through an insertion hole provided in the side peripheral wall 53a of the third cylindrical member 53, and its tip is connected to the bucket 60. As the insertion portion 84 is displaced diagonally up and down, the bucket 60 rotates about the pin.

[0035] The cylinder mechanism 8 is provided on the outside of the casing 5, extending from approximately the upper end to the lower end. The cylinder mechanism 8 includes, in order from the base end side to the tip end side, a pair of telescopic parts 80, a pair of first rod-shaped parts 81, a pair of second rod-shaped parts 82, a pair of third rod-shaped parts 83, and a pair of insertion parts 84, and the first rod-shaped parts 81, the second rod-shaped part 82, the third rod-shaped part 83, and the insertion parts 84 are connected to form a connecting rod-shaped part 85 (see FIG. 2). The pair of telescopic parts 80 and the pair of connecting rod-shaped parts 85 are provided at an interval of 180° in the circumferential direction so as to face the cylindrical casing 5.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 6(A), the cylinder mechanism 8 lifts the bucket 60 via the connecting rod portion 85 when the telescopic portion 80 is contracted. Also, as shown in FIG. 6(B), the cylinder mechanism 8 pushes down the bucket 60 via the connecting rod portion 85 when the telescopic portion 80 is extended. That is, when the telescopic portion 80 is contracted, each bucket 60 is lifted, and the pair of buckets 60 is in an open state (see FIG. 6(A)). Also, when the telescopic portion 80 is extended, each bucket 60 is pushed down, and the pair of buckets 60 is in a closed state (see FIG. 6(B)).

[0037] <Operation of the pile removal device> The pile extraction device 3 moves the casing 5 downward while rotating the casing 5 by the rotation of the rotary drive device 2. This excavates the casing 5 into the ground. At this time, a plurality of excavation bits 9 provided at the lower end of the casing 5 excavate so as to scrape the soil. The casing 5 advances until it reaches a depth that surrounds the existing piles. At this time, the pair of buckets 60 are in an open state.

[0038] When the casing 5 reaches a depth sufficient to surround the existing pile and surrounds it, the pair of buckets 60 rotate to a closed state so as to sandwich the existing pile. Specifically, the telescopic section 80 of the cylinder device shifts from a contracted state to an extended state, and the connecting rod-shaped section 85 moves downward. The tip of the connecting rod-shaped section 85, i.e., the insertion section 84, shifts so as to push down the bucket 60 through the insertion hole of the third cylindrical section. This causes the pair of buckets 60 to shift from an open state to a closed state.

[0039] The bucket 60 clamps the existing pile while shifting to the closed state. With the existing pile clamped, the casing 5 is pulled up to lift the pile to the ground.

[0040] In this embodiment, the pile extraction device 3 has been described as having a configuration in which the bucket 60 rotates due to the expansion and contraction of the cylinder mechanism 8. However, the pile extraction device 3 may have the bucket 60 rotated by a cam mechanism as in JP2018-111984A, or may have the bucket 60 rotated by another mechanism.

[0041] In the present embodiment, the cylinder mechanism 8 is a hydraulic cylinder. However, the cylinder mechanism 8 may be another type of cylinder, such as an electric cylinder or an air cylinder.

[0042] In this embodiment, the existing pile is clamped by the bucket 60 and lifted to the ground in one go. However, the existing pile may be lifted to the ground in multiple steps. For example, the existing pile may be cut by shifting the bucket 60 to a closed state after clamping the existing pile.

[0043] In this case, the cut existing pile above the closed bucket 60 may be lifted to the ground once, and the casing 5 may be advanced again to the existing pile remaining in the ground below, and the existing pile may be clamped by the bucket 60 and lifted to the ground. In other words, the existing pile may be pulled up in multiple steps.

[0044] When lifting the casing 5, the rotary drive device 2 may be rotated, and the casing 5 may be lifted while rotating the bucket 60. Alternatively, when cutting an existing pile, the rotary drive device 2 may be rotated, and the existing pile may be cut while rotating the bucket 60.

[0045] The pile extraction device 3 and the pile extraction method according to the embodiment of the present invention have been described above. However, the pile extraction device 3 and the pile extraction method are not limited to the above embodiment, and may be configured in other ways as long as the object of the invention is achieved.
