Description

The method of connecting tube
The present invention relates to the method at underground arrangement pipeline, it does not need to excavate costly trench.
Usually, the present invention is used to connect and is embedded in underground main pipe, pressure gas pipe for example, and with itself and second lateral, for example the pipeline in the building links to each other.
Each life or office have a large amount of under ground pipings with building, its supply or discharge water, gas and electricity or the like.
In the past,, to excavate trench usually, pipe laying in trench, is filled up moats then at underground arrangement pipeline.
Expensive so expensive, construction is dangerous, and not easy to operate.
At present, the method for known a kind of tubing does not need to excavate the trench that equates with the pipeline total length.
Therefore, borehole drill construction has adopted and has constituted the rod member string by a large amount of boring rod members and hole, and the end of rod member is connected, and for example is threaded, and pierces underground several meters from ground surface along the inclination route.In this case, drill bit is arranged on the front end of rod member string, can adjust penetration direction quite exactly, so that boring can be at first downward-sloping, continues boring to substantially horizontal again after the degree of depth that arrival is wished.
Before after boring finishes and with the rod member string, taking out, insert pipeline, for example, soft steel pipe or plastic tube.By special device, pipeline is fixed to the front end of rod member string, thereby utilizes the recovery movement of rod member string, pipeline is inserted in the hole that has got out.
Adopt this method at long distance range, for example 100 meters or longer, settle pipeline, use drilling equipment for this purpose, wherein must have downward-sloping tripod, so that be rod member string guiding, this device is huge, and heavy, has 2 tons of weights at least, because the part of the weight of borehole drill construction is pressed to drill bit, produce the active force that the rod member string is promoted forward.
But, when it accurately is communicated with building, will produce special problem, because in this case, the part of main service will be extended under the road surface usually, normally utilizes second lateral to link to each other with the building very near from the road surface.
Therefore, settle these laterals, the conventional method that makes them connect building is to excavate trench.
Known this technology exists defective now, and particularly it need move a large amount of cubic metres of earth and stone, then need carry out repair.
Therefore wish to utilize this technology, only need to get quite little hole on the ground, and trench is dug out at most of connecting tube place that no longer will be placed.
In at present known boring method,, in fact, be unsuitable for being communicated with the lateral of building at the underground rod member string that along inclined direction drives.
Adopt said method, can accurately be the boring guiding.But,, in boring, can have the danger that damages pipeline because distance wants connected main pipe too near.
In addition, boring must be at a underground point location, and it partly has sizable transversal discrepancy with respect to main pipe.Therefore, rig is installed in a relative side of road, and it is near whole road surface one side, and perhaps owing to transversal discrepancy, as the phenomenon of common generation, it always can not be satisfactory, and must block the relative road surface that connects with building.Only with regard to the workload of destroying road surface and redeck, just can not adopt this technology.
Be equivalent to second technical solution of wanting the trench of connected duct length in order the gratifying solution that can address the above problem to be provided, to the present invention proposes to avoid excavating, comprising:
Excavate starting point pit and terminal point pit, excavate one of them pit near main pipe, make the main pipe at this place be in clean conditions, another pit has the identical degree of depth basically;
Rig is set, and it comprises a series of boring rod members, and the end of described boring rod member is along axis setting from beginning to end, so that constitute boring rod member string, it is adapted at undergroundly promoting rod member forward by means of changeing the hole driving mechanism;
Described equipment and boring rod member move down, enter one of described pit, the horizontal dimension of pit is less, but be enough to make the people can operate the string of described equipment and rod member therein, described rod element is selected by this way, the axial length that is each rod element is shorter than the distance between the wall relative in the pit, is holed at relative wall place by the boring rod member in pit;
In pit, make the axis location of boring rod member string,, and be cross setting with respect to main pipe so that get out substantially horizontal hole, particularly level height quite near main pipe;
Along described axis boring, after two pits are communicated with, make second pipeline pass boring, so that the end of pipeline is positioned at the pit top at main pipe place;
The first area that connects two branching of pipes connectors is fixed to the end of this pipeline at this;
Make and describedly be furnished with connector pipeline end and drop in the pit;
The second area of described connector is fixed in the main pipe;
Fill and lead up pit.
Particularly the present invention's along continuous straight runs boring and settle pipeline in boring basically can closely possible little its surrounding environment of damage, and two quite little openings are particularly only arranged on ground.
Usually, starting point pit and terminal point pit have essentially identical cross-sectional dimension and height dimension on short transverse, i.e. the about 70cm * 40cm of horizontal dimension, its degree of depth 1m-1.5m.
Should be noted that the starting point pit vertically is positioned to want connected main pipe zone to solve two problems.
First problem after the lateral arrangement that is communicated with building finishes, forms the free space of operating component between main pipe and lateral, operate by remote-control apparatus at the top that is preferably in pit.Adopt conventional mode by cable operated excavator or employing specific process, as fluidics, vertically excavate, form the starting point pit, doing like this is reasonably, because the starting point pit preferably extends to the close lower position of wanting connected main pipe.
Second problem, want the connected main pipe and second lateral very close, it is vertical mutually, and one of them pipeline is positioned near the top of another pipeline or below, therefore can quite easily connect, and not need to clean along the distance of vertically growing of pipeline.Particularly under the situation of pneumatic tube and conduit pipe, can adopt trapezoidal ABAP Adapter or other ABAP Adapter.
When the starting point pit is holed, described main pipe extends in pit, can begin boring at several millimeters places above or below main pipe.
From the starting point pit, also can between the end points of the tie point of main pipe and lateral, carry out the work along rectilinear direction basically, advance to building always.In addition, along continuous straight runs begins to excavate usually, needs very little activity point of view during holing.This operating method can adopt the rod member string with suitable rigidity, and rod element is shorter, is generally 10cm-35cm, and it can along continuous straight runs be contained in may be (its horizontal equivalent is 40cm usually) in the pit of minimum dimension.
Should be noted that under the situation of starting working from such starting point pit, impact forming boring by current in underground high pressure with the drill bit place.In practice, the ponding of this rod member string back in the starting point pit is breakneck.
By very firm rod member string, particularly adopt the rod member of rigid material, be the very large pipe fitting of wall thickness at least, under pressure, it can make the rod member string advance, and finishes boring.This method is particularly suitable for carrying out work from pit, because driving mechanism advances the rod member string by pressure, described driving mechanism can be supported on the wall of pit.
The rod member string rotates in this case, so that at the front end grinding soil material of drill bit, this is useful under a stable condition.But, must be able to make angle that the rod member string rotates less than 360 °, this is because the direction of advance of boring can be according to the asymmetric oblique angle at rod member string top with respect to the angular orientation change of drilling axis.
In order to pull out the boring rod member along the position at drilling axis place, the along continuous straight runs setting basically of described drilling axis.Can also insert new rod member from the supply storehouse of starting point pit along drilling axis, perhaps extract rod member out along this horizontal position.This is difficulty very, for example, in the process of feed bars, produces obstruction owing to the direction that connects rod member changes, and this blocking phenomenon almost completely can not be avoided.
As mentioned above, boring driving mechanism itself can provide along drilling axis direction Driving force forward.The direction of this Driving force is delivered to another pit from a pit along the longitudinal, and it is parallel to drilling axis, and at least along rod member length direction independently.Boring initial position and rod member that the boring driving mechanism is preferably in the starting point pit load/draw back between the withdrawn position of device region, can move along a direction or another direction.Described rod member loads/draws back device and is arranged on the relative wall.
Preferably the generation type of starting point pit is such, the below that the main pipe that connect is positioned at rod member and loads/draw back device, and at this, the boring driving mechanism needs sizable space, and it is arranged on the position at main pipe place, and main pipe thereunder extends.
The relevant consecutive steps that relates to boring asks the reader referring to F.P. FR-A-2738617, FR-A-2738614, and FR-A-2738615 is comprising the content of connecting tube.
