Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a hydraulic control device for appropriately controlling the opening and closing of a flap gate or the like that is installed at the outlet of a sluice gate or a flowing water channel for the purpose of preventing backflow. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, flap gates or the like are installed at the outlet of a general culvert or flow channel in order to prevent backflow from the downstream side. However, conventional flap gates have problems such as poor drainage performance because the water passage is normally closed, and debris can easily get caught, resulting in incomplete closure. In addition, when the downstream water level fluctuates drastically due to waves or the like, the gate body repeatedly opens and closes vigorously in sync with the water level fluctuations, causing repeated violent collisions between the gate body and the door stopper for a long period of time, resulting in noise and damage.

[0003] Therefore, the applicant has developed a hydraulic control device for a forced-open gate, as described in Patent Document 1 (JP 2019-112860 A, in particular paragraphs 0020-0021 and Figures 4 and 5), in which the gate body is normally kept in the open position to achieve high drainage performance, and when the water level downstream reaches or exceeds a predetermined level, the float valve switches to the closed position, causing the gate body to close under its own weight, thereby reliably stopping the water. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] JP 2019-112860 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, in the hydraulic control device of the forced-open type gate described in Patent Document 1, when the gate body is opened and closed automatically (the state in Figures 5 and 6), the movement speed of the hydraulic oil is set by the flow control valve (11), and the opening and closing speed of the gate body is always below a predetermined speed. Therefore, there is a problem that the gate body does not open quickly, especially when it is opened only by the water pressure of the drainage flow from the upstream side (the state in Figure 6). Furthermore, when performing a forced opening operation of the flap gate, in order to change from the state shown in Figure 6 to the state shown in Figure 7, it is necessary to close the first stop valve (12) and open the second stop valve (13), and after completing the forced opening operation, it is necessary to perform the reverse operations. The present invention has as its first objective the provision of a hydraulic control device which solves these problems and which can smoothly open the gate body with minimal resistance when the gate body is opened due to the water pressure of the drainage flow from the upstream side, and which can suppress flapping of the gate body due to waves by slowing down the closing speed when the downstream water level reaches or exceeds a predetermined level, causing the float valve to switch to the closed position and the gate body to close under its own weight. A second objective of the present invention is to provide a hydraulic control device that can forcibly open a gate by simply operating the hydraulic pump, without operating any valves or valves, and that does not require any operation of valves or valves even after the forced opening operation is completed.

Therefore, the hydraulic pump (17) It is possible to provide a hydraulic control device that can forcibly open the gate by simply activating the valve, and that does not require any operation of valves or the like even after the forcible opening operation is completed.

[0011] According to the invention of claim 3, in addition to the effects of the invention of claim 2, the forced opening device for forcibly opening the door body (1), which comprises the hydraulic tank (18), the hydraulic pump (17), the hydraulic oil supply pipe (14), the supply check valve (15a), the hydraulic oil discharge pipe (16), and the discharge pilot-equipped check valve (15b), can be detachably connected to the first communicating pipe (10) or the second communicating pipe (12).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to examples. EXAMPLES

[0014] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an upper hinge type flap gate according to a first embodiment. As shown in Figure 1, in the upper hinge type flap gate of Example 1, a gate body 1 is suspended freely rotatably by a hinge hardware 6 at the boundary between the upstream waterway and the downstream waterway, and when no external force is applied, the gate body 1 closes the outlet of the upstream waterway by its own weight. In addition, a door body drive arm 1a is provided on the upper part of the door body 1 and is hingedly connected to a tip metal fitting 9 provided at the tip of the rod 8 of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3, so that the opening and closing operation of the door body 1 and the extension and retraction operation of the rod of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3 are always synchronized. The double rod hydraulic cylinder 3 is attached to a trunnion bearing 7 so that the rod 8 retracts when the door body 1 opens, and extends when the door body 1 closes. Conversely, when the rod 8 retracts, the door body 1 opens, and when the rod 8 extends, the door body 1 closes. Furthermore, a float 4a and a float valve 4b, which will be described later, are stored inside the float device storage box 4c, and a door stopper 5 is provided around the outlet of the upstream waterway.

[0015] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the state of the hydraulic operation device according to the first embodiment during an automatic opening operation, and FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining the flow of hydraulic oil in that state. The front oil port 3a and the rear oil port 3b of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3 are connected by a first connecting pipe 10, and the first connecting pipe 10 is provided with a check valve 11 that allows hydraulic oil to flow only in the direction from the rear oil port 3b to the front oil port 3a. In addition, the front side (the side closer to the front oil port 3a) and the rear side (the side closer to the rear oil port 3b) of the check valve 11 in the first communicating pipe 10 are connected by a second communicating pipe 12, and the second communicating pipe 12 is provided with a float valve 4b that opens when the downstream water level 19b in the water passage 2b downstream of the gate reaches or exceeds a predetermined water level, and a flow control valve 13 that adjusts the flow rate of the hydraulic oil so that it does not exceed a predetermined flow rate. Here, the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3 has the characteristic that the amount of hydraulic oil inside the cylinder does not change even when the rod 8 extends or retracts, so that the hydraulic oil can flow freely between the front oil port 3a and the rear oil port 3b, allowing the rod 8 to be freely extended or retracted by external force. Therefore, in the state shown in Figure 2 where the downstream water level 19b is lower than the predetermined water level, the float 4a is lowered, and the float valve 4b is closed, the second communicating pipe 12 is closed and hydraulic oil can only flow from the rear oil port 3b to the front oil port 3a, resulting in a gate open holding state where only the rod 8 of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3 can be retracted. In the gate open holding state, as shown in FIG. 3, the gate body 1 tries to open in the drainage direction due to the water pressure of the upstream water level 19a, and the rod 8 tries to move in the direction of the black arrow. Then, the hydraulic oil flows inside the first communicating pipe 10 in the direction from the rear oil port 3b to the front oil port 3a as shown by the white arrow, thereby performing the automatic opening operation. Then, even if the upstream water level 19a drops and the water pressure decreases, the hydraulic oil cannot flow through the first communicating pipe 10 from the front oil port 3a to the rear oil port 3b, so the rod 8 of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3 cannot extend and the door body 1 remains open.

[0016] FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining the flow of hydraulic oil in the first embodiment during an automatic closing operation, and FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the state of the hydraulic operating device and the like according to the first embodiment when the door body 1 is closed. When the downstream water level 19b rises from the state shown in Figure 3, the float 4a rises and the float valve 4b opens, the gate open holding state is released, as shown in Figure 4, and the rod 8 of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3 becomes able to both extend and retract. In this state, the gate body 1 can perform automatic opening and closing operations in response to fluctuations in the upstream water level 19a and the downstream water level 19b. In other words, when the upstream water level 19a is higher than the downstream water level 19b and the water pressure in the drainage direction of the upstream water level 19a is greater than the water pressure due to the downstream water level 19b and the pressure due to the weight of the gate body 1, the automatic opening operation is performed and water is drained from the upstream side of the gate in the downstream direction. Conversely, when the upstream water level 19a is lower than or equal to the downstream water level 19b and the water pressure in the discharge direction of the upstream water level 19a is smaller than the water pressure due to the downstream water level 19b and the pressure due to the weight of the gate body 1, as shown in Figure 4, the gate body 1 will try to close toward the gate due to the water pressure due to the downstream water level 19b and the weight of the gate body 1, and the rod 8 will try to move in the direction of the black arrow. Then, the hydraulic oil flows through the first communicating pipe 10 and the second communicating pipe 12 in the direction from the front oil port 3a to the rear oil port 3b, as shown by the white arrows, so that the door body 1 moves in the closing direction and an automatic closing operation is performed, finally reaching the state shown in Figure 5. At this time, the flow rate of the hydraulic oil flowing through the second communicating pipe 12 does not exceed a predetermined flow rate due to the action of the flow control valve 13, so the extension speed of the rod 8 is limited and the automatic closing speed of the door body 1 is slow. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the door body 1 from closing at high speed and causing a violent collision with the door stop 5, and it is possible to prevent noise and damage. EXAMPLES

[0017] FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the state of the hydraulic operation device and the like according to the second embodiment during the automatic opening operation. The upper hinged flap gate of Example 2 and the upper hinged flap gate of Example 1 have exactly the same structure, and the hydraulic operating device also has exactly the same configuration with respect to the first communicating pipe 10, the check valve 11, the second communicating pipe 12, the float 4a, the float valve 4b and the flow control valve 13. The difference between Example 2 and Example 1 is that there are provided a hydraulic oil supply pipe 14, a supply check valve 15a, a hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16, a discharge pilot-equipped check valve 15b, a hydraulic pump 17, and a hydraulic tank 18. Therefore, the same members as in Example 1 are given the same numbers, and the following mainly describes the differences from Example 1.

[0018] As shown in FIG. 6, the hydraulic operating device of the second embodiment is obtained by adding to the hydraulic operating device of the first embodiment a hydraulic tank 18 for storing hydraulic oil, a hydraulic pump 17 for supplying hydraulic oil from the hydraulic tank 18 to the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3, a hydraulic oil supply pipe 14 for connecting the hydraulic oil outlet of the hydraulic pump 17 to the front oil port 3a side of the check valve 11 of the first communicating pipe 10, a supply check valve 15a provided in the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14, a hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16 for connecting the hydraulic tank 18 to the rear oil port 3b side of the check valve 11 of the first communicating pipe 10, and a check valve with a discharge pilot 15b provided in the hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16. Furthermore, unless the hydraulic pump 17 is operated, the supply check valve 15a and the discharge pilot-equipped check valve 15b will prevent hydraulic oil from flowing through the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14 and the hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16. Therefore, when the float valve 4b is closed, as in FIG. 3 of the first embodiment, when the door body 1 is pushed in the drainage direction by the water pressure of the upstream water level, the hydraulic oil flows through the first communicating pipe 10 from the rear oil port 3b to the front oil port 3a, performing an automatic opening operation. Even if the water pressure of the upstream water level decreases thereafter, the hydraulic oil will not flow through the first communicating pipe 10 from the front oil port 3a to the rear oil port 3b, so the rod 8 of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3 cannot extend and the door body 1 is maintained in the open state. Furthermore, when the float valve 4b is open, the rod 8 of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3 can be extended and retracted, as in the first embodiment, and the gate body 1 automatically opens and closes in response to fluctuations in the upstream water level 19a and the downstream water level 19b.

[0019] FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining the flow of hydraulic oil in the second embodiment at the time of forced opening. When the valve is forcibly opened, the hydraulic pump 17 is operated to supply hydraulic oil from the hydraulic tank 18 . The hydraulic oil supplied from the hydraulic tank 18 is supplied to the front oil chamber via the hydraulic oil outlet of the hydraulic pump 17, the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14, the supply check valve 15a, the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14, the first connecting pipe 10, and the front oil port 3a, as shown by the white arrows. When hydraulic oil is supplied to the front oil chamber, the rod 8 contracts, and the hydraulic oil in the rear oil chamber is discharged into the hydraulic tank 18 via the rear oil port 3b, the first connecting pipe 10, the hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16, the check valve with discharge pilot 15b, and the hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16, as shown by the white arrows. Then, the tip metal member 9 moves toward the double rod hydraulic cylinder 3, forcing the door body 1 into the open state. The discharge pilot-equipped check valve 15b operates to prevent the flow of hydraulic oil from the rear oil port 3b to the hydraulic tank 18 except when hydraulic oil is supplied from the hydraulic tank 18 by the hydraulic pump 17. EXAMPLES

[0020] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a state of the hydraulic operation device etc. according to the third embodiment at the time of forced opening. The upper hinged flap gate of Example 3, like that of Example 2, has exactly the same structure as the upper hinged flap gate of Example 1, and the hydraulic operating device at the time of forced opening has the same configuration as that of Example 2, except that the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14 and the hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16 are connected to the supply connection port 14a and the discharge connection port 16a, respectively. Therefore, the same members as those in the first and second embodiments are denoted by the same reference numbers, and the following description will focus mainly on the differences from the second embodiment.

[0021] Under normal conditions (when automatic opening is activated, automatic closing is activated, and when closed), the hydraulic operating device of Example 3 is not connected to a forced opening device consisting of a hydraulic oil supply pipe 14, a supply check valve 15a, a hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16, a check valve with discharge pilot 15b, a hydraulic pump 17, and a hydraulic tank 18. In the event that the opening angle becomes small and the drainage capacity becomes low due to reasons such as low water pressure at the upstream water level, the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14 and the hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16 of the forced opening device are connected to the supply connection port 14a installed on the forward oil port 3a side of the check valve 11 of the first communicating pipe 10 and the discharge connection port 16a installed on the rear oil port 3b side of the check valve 11 of the first communicating pipe 10, respectively, and then the hydraulic pump 17 is operated. Then, due to the flow of hydraulic oil similar to that shown in Figure 7 of the second embodiment, the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic tank 18 is supplied to the front oil chamber and the hydraulic oil in the rear oil chamber is discharged to the hydraulic tank 18, forcing the door body 1 into the open state, and when the door body 1 is fully open, the hydraulic pump 17 is stopped. Furthermore, even if the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14 and hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16 of the forced opening device are disconnected from the supply connection port 14a and the discharge connection port 16a after the door body 1 is fully open, the hydraulic oil will not flow through the first communicating pipe 10 in the direction from the front oil port 3a to the rear oil port 3b, so the rod 8 of the double-rod hydraulic cylinder 3 cannot extend and the door body 1 remains open. Furthermore, even a very small amount of hydraulic oil leakage will cause the opening angle of an upper hinged flap gate to decrease by approximately 1 to 2 degrees per month, but if the opening angle is forced to 20 degrees, it will be able to maintain a sufficient open state to prevent discharge of water from upstream for approximately six months.

[0022] Modifications of Examples 1 to 3 are listed below. (1) In the first to third embodiments, the flow control valve 13 is provided on the rear oil port 3b side of the float valve 4b of the second communicating pipe 12. However, the flow control valve 13 may be provided on the front oil port 3a side of the float valve 4b of the second communicating pipe 12. (2) In Examples 1 to 3, an upper hinged flap gate was used, but in all of the examples, any gate, such as a miter gate, may be used as long as it is a gate that closes under its own weight and moves in the opening or closing direction depending on the water pressure from the upstream or downstream water level.

[0023] (3) In the second and third embodiments, the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14 connects the hydraulic oil outlet of the hydraulic pump 17 to the forward oil port 3 a side of the check valve 11 of the first communicating pipe 10, but as shown in FIG. 9, the hydraulic oil outlet of the hydraulic pump 17 may connect the forward oil port 3 a side of the float valve 4 b and the flow control valve 13 of the second communicating pipe 12. In addition, the hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16 connects the hydraulic tank 18 to the rear oil port 3b side of the check valve 11 of the first communicating pipe 10, but as shown in Figure 9, the hydraulic tank 18 may also connect the hydraulic tank 18 to the rear oil port 3b side of the float valve 4b and the flow control valve 13 of the second communicating pipe 12. Furthermore, the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14 may be connected as shown in FIG. 6 and the hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16 may be connected as shown in FIG. 9, or conversely, the hydraulic oil supply pipe 14 may be connected as shown in FIG. 9 and the hydraulic oil discharge pipe 16 may be connected as shown in FIG. 6.
