(Embodiment 1)
Pile press-machine 10, as shown in FIG. 1, a predetermined pile (e.g., steel pipe piles, etc.) press-fit or rotating press fit into ground G (hereinafter, simply "press fit") are press-fitted machines already pressed into the ground G A saddle 12 provided with a plurality of (for example, three) clamping devices 11 for holding and supporting the upper end of the existing pile P, a slide base 13 movable back and forth with respect to the saddle 12, and a slide base 13 The reader mast 14 can be turned right and left, the chuck device 15 is attached to the front surface of the reader mast 14 so as to be movable up and down, the main hydraulic cylinder 16 that drives the chuck device 15 up and down with respect to the leader mast 14 and the like.

The clamp device 11 has a diameter expanded so as to be expanded in a horizontal direction by a hydraulic cylinder 2c for clamping (see FIG. 3) in a state of being inserted into the upper end side of a steel pipe pile that is an existing pile that has been press-fitted previously. By pressing the inner wall surface of the steel pipe pile, the pile presser 10 is supported by the upper end portion of the existing pile P by grasping the upper end side of the steel pipe pile (existing pile).
In particular, the clamping device 11 takes the reaction force from the existing pile P that is held and supported, and the pile presser 10 is placed on the upper end of the existing pile P so that the pile presser 10 can press-fit a new pile. It is designed to be installed.
The clamp devices 11 are movable to the left and right or back and forth with respect to the saddle 12, except for the clamp device 11 serving as the leading reference, for example, and are aligned along a curved line such as an arc. It is possible to grip the upper ends of the plurality of piles press-fitted with the plurality of clamp devices 11, and the intervals between the piles in the pile row may be slightly different so that they can be handled.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the pile press-in machine 10 includes a front-side clamp device 11 f that is disposed closest to the chuck device 15, a rear-side clamp device 11 b that is disposed farthest from the chuck device 15, Three clamping devices 11 including a clamping device 11c on the center side that is disposed between the clamping device 11f and the clamping device 11b are provided.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 (a) and 2 (b), the rear clamping device 11b expands the diameter relative to the support portion 1 supported by the saddle 12 and the inner wall surface of the steel pipe pile that is the existing pile P. The gripping part 2 that grips and supports the steel pipe pile, and the gripping part 2 in a state of gripping a predetermined existing pile P are moved in a direction in which they are in contact with and separated from the pile presser 10 (saddle 12). And a loading hydraulic cylinder 3 which is a loading mechanism portion that applies a load to a predetermined existing pile P to be supported.

A base portion of the loading hydraulic cylinder 3 is fixed to the support portion 1.
The clamping device 11b is provided with a pair of left and right loading hydraulic cylinders 3.

The grip portion 2 includes a fixed portion 2a connected to the support portion 1 via a loading hydraulic cylinder 3, a movable portion 2b that contacts and separates from the fixed portion 2a, and a clamping hydraulic cylinder 2c that moves the movable portion 2b. And. Note that the gripping portion 2 in the clamp device 11b is provided with a total of six clamping hydraulic cylinders 2c on the left and right sides of the loading hydraulic cylinder 3, respectively. In addition, on the upper portion of the grip portion 2, a flange portion 2 e that comes into contact with the upper end surface of the existing pile P is formed.
The clamping hydraulic cylinder 2c pushes and extends the rod portion 2d in the front-rear direction, so that the movable portion 2b is pushed out from the fixed portion 2a as shown in FIGS. Thus, the grip portion 2 grips and supports the upper end side of the existing pile P.

  The loading hydraulic cylinder 3 moves the gripping portion 2 away from the pile presser 10 (saddle 12) as shown in FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b) by extending the rod portion 3a in the vertical direction. Then, it functions as a loading mechanism section that presses a predetermined existing pile P gripped by the grip section 2.

  The front side clamping device 11f and the central side clamping device 11c are configured not to include the loading hydraulic cylinder 3 in the rear side clamping device 11b, and each gripping portion 2 of the clamping devices 11f and 11c is provided with the existing pile P. It grips and supports the upper end side.

The slide base 13 moves forward with respect to the saddle 12 and moves the chuck device 15 horizontally to the front side, so that the tip of the existing pile P supported by the leading clamp device 11 is moved without moving the saddle 12. In addition, it is possible to press-fit two piles side by side in the front-rear direction.
The leader mast 14 can be turned to the left and right with respect to the slide base 13 so that the direction of the rows of piles to be press-fitted in sequence can be bent at a right angle or bent. .
The slide base 13 and the leader mast 14 allow the chuck device 15 to move in the horizontal direction with respect to the saddle 12 provided with the clamp devices 11.

The chuck device 15 is in a state in which the back side thereof is fitted to the front side of the leader mast 14 so as to be movable up and down, and is driven up and down by a main hydraulic cylinder 16 connected to the leader mast 14 and the chuck device 15. ing.
Further, inside the chuck device 15, there is provided a pile gripping portion (not shown) that is actuated by driving a predetermined hydraulic cylinder and presses and grips the pile penetrated vertically from the four outer sides.
Since the lifting range of the chuck device 15 is limited, the chuck device 15 is lowered by gripping the pile and the chuck device 15 is lifted by releasing the pile. Thereby, the press-fitting of the pile is repeated for each stroke, and the pile can be press-fitted into the ground deeper than the lifting / lowering range of the chuck device 15.

  In addition, when the pile press-in machine 10 sequentially press-fits the pile, the saddle 12 including the clamp device 11 is moved with respect to the newly press-in pile, and the pile press-in machine 10 moves forward corresponding to one pile. Can do. Since the operation of the pile press-in machine 10 on the movement of the pile is the same as that conventionally known, it will not be described in detail here.

  Next, it is the loading test method which concerns on this invention, Comprising: The simple pile loading test method performed using the pile press-in machine 10 is demonstrated.

  First, as shown in FIG. 1, while supporting the upper end side of the existing pile P press-fitted into the ground G with the clamp devices 11f, 11c, 11b, the reaction force is taken from the existing pile P, The press-fitting machine 10 raises and lowers the chuck device 15, so that a new pile P <b> 1 is press-fitted into a position aligned with the existing pile P and arranged in parallel.

  In this way, by repeatedly arranging the new pile P1 in parallel with the existing pile P, the pile presser 10 sequentially connects a plurality of piles, and the predetermined existing pile P to be subjected to the loading test is clamped on the rear side. In the process supported by the device 11b, a load test of the pile is executed.

And the existing pile P which the clamp apparatuses 11f and 11c support in the state which each supported the existing pile P by the front side clamp apparatus 11f, the center side clamp apparatus 11c, and the rear side clamp apparatus 11b in the pile press-in machine 10 Is used as a reaction force pile, and the loading hydraulic cylinder 3 drives the rod portion 3a to push the gripping portion 2 that grips the existing pile P that is the load test target pile in the rear clamping device 11b (FIG. 4B). The loading test is performed by applying a load to the existing pile P to be loaded and supported by the clamping device 11b.
Specifically, the displacement of the settlement amount measurement point when the gripping portion 2 of the clamping device 11b pushes the existing pile P to be loaded into the ground G by driving the loading hydraulic cylinder 3 with reference to the pile presser 10. A loading test is performed by measuring. Moreover, you may perform a loading test by measuring a displacement on the basis of the pile head of the existing pile P made into a fixed point.
The reaction force for pushing the existing pile P to be loaded into the ground G is the pulling resistance acting between the existing pile P and the ground G supported by the front side clamp device 11f and the center side clamp device 11c. Obtained from. Moreover, when performing this loading test, in the state which the center side clamping apparatus 11c used as the arrangement adjacent to the clamping apparatus 11b which pushes the existing pile P of the loading test object into the ground G open | released the holding of the existing pile P, You may make it take reaction force from the existing pile P which the clamp apparatus 11f supports. By carrying out like this, it can suppress that the existing pile P adjacent to the existing pile P which is the object of a loading test will be displaced, and can suppress the influence on the existing pile P of a loading test object.
Thus, the data required for the evaluation of the bearing capacity of the existing pile P subject to the loading test on the ground G is obtained as the relationship between the load applied to the existing pile P and the displacement of the existing pile P.

In addition, when a load test is performed by applying a load to the existing pile P to be loaded, the chuck device 15 of the pile press-in machine 10 maintains a state where the new pile P1 being pressed into the ground G is gripped. .
When the chuck device 15 holds the new pile P1 being press-fitted into the ground G, a loading test can be performed in which the new pile P1 is also a reaction force pile.

  And after completion | finish of a loading test, the rod part 3a of the loading hydraulic cylinder 3 is pulled back to an initial state (refer Fig.4 (a)), and the pile presser 10 press-fits the new pile P1 in the position along with the existing pile P. Continue work.

As described above, the pile press-fitting machine 10 according to the present invention includes the loading hydraulic cylinder 3 that applies a load to the existing pile P supported by the rear side clamping device 11b, and therefore, by driving the loading hydraulic cylinder 3, The loading test can be performed by applying a load to the existing pile P to be loaded by the rear clamping device 11b.
That is, in the process of connecting a plurality of piles using the pile presser 10, a load test can be performed by applying a load to the existing pile P to be loaded by the pile presser 10. After the press-fitting work is completed, it is possible to save the trouble of installing and removing the loading test device on the pile, and the trouble of installing and removing the temporary test pile. It is possible to perform a proper loading test.
Therefore, it can be said that the loading test using this pile press-in machine 10 is an easier simple loading test method.

In particular, the pile presser 10 includes a plurality of (three) clamp devices 11 (11f, 11c, 11b) in which the loading hydraulic cylinder 3 is arranged on the clamp device 11b on the rear side farthest from the chuck device 15. Since the loading test can be executed in the clamping device 11b which is the last part, the existing pile P which has completed the loading test is not used as a reaction force pile.
That is, the pile press-in machine 10 does not support the existing pile P after the loading test with the front side clamp device 11f or the center side clamp device 11c, and pulls out the existing pile P without using it as a reaction force pile. Since such a force is not applied, the existing pile P maintains the state after finishing the loading test, and the confirmed supporting force is maintained. Therefore, the effectiveness of the data regarding the loading test is high, and the support pile has high reliability with respect to the measured support force.
In addition, the loading test can be performed on all the piles as a final process by the loading mechanism portion (loading hydraulic cylinder 3) arranged farthest from the chuck device 15.

And the loading hydraulic cylinder 3 which is a loading mechanism part which applies a load to the predetermined existing pile P which the clamp apparatus 11b supports is arrange | positioned at the rear clamp apparatus 11b.

Thus, if it is the pile press-fit machine 20 provided with the two clamp apparatuses 11, the existing pile P supported by the front clamp apparatus 11f will be used as a reaction force pile, and the load which the rear clamp apparatus 11b will support. A simple loading test can be performed by applying a load to the existing pile P to be tested.
Then, in the same way as the pile presser 10 of the first embodiment, in the process of connecting a plurality of piles using this pile presser 20, the pile presser 20 applies a load to the existing pile P to be loaded and simplified. Load testing can be performed.

The loading mechanism section 33 moves the loading section 33a in contact with the upper end of the existing pile P to be loaded test, and moves the loading section 33a in the direction of contacting and separating from the pile press-in machine 10 (saddle 12). And a loading hydraulic cylinder 3 to be pushed out.
And this loading mechanism part 33 drives the loading hydraulic cylinder 3 so that the loading part 33a may be pressed against the existing pile P connected to the rear arrangement of the existing pile P supported by the two clamping devices 11. A load can be applied to the existing pile P.

In this manner, the pile press-in machine 30 can perform a loading test in which a load is applied to the existing pile P located behind the two clamping devices 11. Specifically, since the pile press-in machine 30 includes the loading mechanism portion 33 that can apply a load to the existing pile P that is juxtaposed behind the existing pile P supported by the two clamping devices 11, By the operation of the loading mechanism 33, a simple loading test can be performed by applying a load to the existing pile P to be loaded.
