Description
The present invention relates to a device for forming a hole in a surface, and in particular to a device for forming a concrete pile.
Background [0002] Retaining walls for multi-storey building foundations are constructed prior to excavation in order to prevent soil and/or water collapsing into the excavated site. Examples of such a retaining wall are bored pile retaining walls which are constructed from a series of adjacent concrete piles. A concrete pile is generally formed by drilling a hole into the ground and subsequently filling the hole with concrete.
[0003] Commonly used bored pile retaining walls include contiguous, tangent and secant pile walls. Contiguous pile walls are constructed with a gap between adjacent concrete piles. Tangent pile walls differ from contiguous pile walls in that there are no gaps between adjacent concrete piles. Secant pile walls are constructed with concrete piles which intersect with adjacent concrete piles.
[0004] Contiguous Flight Auger (CFA) rigs are commonly used in the construction of bored pile retaining walls to form a single concrete pile. A CFA rig essentially comprises an auger (drill) with a hollow shaft. The auger is used to drill a hole to a predetermined depth while simultaneously removing earth from the hole. Once the hole has been formed, concrete is pumped through the hollow shaft of the auger as it is being withdrawn from the hole. While concrete is setting in a hole it is not possible to drill a further hole immediately adjacent to it as the concrete is not stable. Accordingly, bored pile retaining walls are typically constructed in three sequences (primary, secondary and tertiary) when using a CFA rig.
[0005] Referring to Figure 1, during the primary sequence, a series of concrete piles are formed with a space of approximately twice the diameter of the concrete piles between adjacent primary sequence piles. On completion of the primary sequence, secondary sequence piles are formed to one side of the primary sequence piles thereby leaving a space of approximately the diameter of the concrete piles between the secondary sequence piles and the next primary sequence pile. On
WO 2017/004658
PCT/AU2016/000240 completion of the secondary sequence, tertiary sequence piles are formed in the spaces between the secondary and primary sequence piles thereby completing the bored pile retaining wall.
[0006] Accordingly, this is a time consuming process as three sequences of piles must be formed and the CFA rig must be moved before forming the next concrete pile. This also increases costs and time delays on site during construction. It will be appreciated that this issue will be exacerbated when there are a large number of concrete piles to be formed. When the round piles are hollowed out for the car park (for example) under a building the new wall will be straight, not cylinder shapes.
[0007] Accordingly, there is a need to address the above by providing a device that can reduce the total number of sequences and holes required to construct a bored pile retaining wall which reduces the number of rig moves and alignments.
Object of the Invention [0008] It is the object of the present invention to address the above need, or to at least provide a useful alternative.

Description of Embodiments [0048] Referring to Figure 2, an embodiment of a device 1 for forming a concrete pile is shown. The device 1 includes a frame 15 which is water tight to prevent the ingress of water into the interior of the frame. The top of the frame 15 is configured to allow air to enter the interior of the frame 15. A centre support 4 is disposed within and coupled to the frame 15 by a pivot support 14. An end portion 16 of the centre support 4 extends through the base of the frame 15. The pivot support 14 allows the centre support 4 to pivot laterally such that the end portion 16 moves at least a di stance of half the width “d” of the end portion 16 in either direction.
[0049] A cutter head 2 is disposed adjacent the end portion 16 of the centre frame 4. The cutter head 2 has a plurality of cutting elements 3 extending from and normal to the surface of the cutter head 2 (only one cutting element is labelled for clarity of illustration), trenching cutters, rock picks or tungsten cutters depending upon ground conditions. The cutter head 2 is configured to rotate about the axis labelled XX. The end portion 16 of the centre support 4 creates a region having a width “d” where the cutter head 2 cannot cut, this region is referred to hereinafter as “the cutting blind spot”. The pivot support 14 allows the cutter head 2 to move laterally in either direction in order to reach the cutting blind spot thereby cutting a hole that is wider than the cutter head 2.
[0050] A drive means 13 in the form of a hydraulic motor is supported on the centre support 4. The drive means 13 is coupled to the cutter head 2 via a drive train 19 (see Figure 3). The drive train 19 comprises sprockets 20, 21 coupled to each of the drive means 13 and the cutter head 2, and a chain 22 engaging both sprockets 20, 21. It will be appreciated that the drive means 13 could also be any means suitable for rotating the cutter head 2, such as, for example, electric or pneumatic motors and the like. The drive train 19 can also be any other suitable means known in the art for coupling the drive means 13 to the cutter head 2.

Ί |0051] Conduits 5 extend through the frame 15 with a first end of the conduits 5 positioned above the cutter head 2 and on either side of the centre support 4, and a second end of the conduits 5 exiting through the top of the frame 15. While cutting a hole, the second ends of the conduits 5 are connected to an industrial vacuum such as the “VacTrax” offered by CGB Services Pty Ltd. After the hole has been cut, the second ends of the conduits 5 are connected to a concrete source to pump concrete through the conduits 5 and into the hole. It will be appreciated that a separate group of conduits can be provided for pumping concrete into the hole and for removing earth, air and/or water from the hole.
|0052] A lateral actuating means 8 in the form of a hydraulic ram is provided to pivot the centre support 4 laterally in either direction. The lateral actuating means 8 includes an actuating cylinder 10 pivotably coupled to frame lug 9 and an actuating rod 11 pivotably coupled to centre support lug 12. Advancing and retracting the actuating rod 11 will pivot the centre support 4 in either direction thereby moving the cutter head 2 so that it can reach the cutting blind spot. It will be appreciated that any other suitable means known in the art can be utilised as the lateral actuating means 8, such as, for example, pneumatic or electric means.
|0053] A trowel frame 6 is coupled to the bottom of the frame 15. The trowel frame 6 is positioned above and surrounds the cutter head 2. The trowel frame 6 has a width of at least that of the cutter head 2 and the width “d”. The trowel frame 6 provides clearance for inserting the frame 15 into the hole while cutting the hole and when withdrawing the frame 15 from the pile hole.
[0054] There is at least one bearing (not shown in the figures) disposed in the trowel frame 6. The at least one bearing guiding and limiting the lateral movement of the centre support 4 when the lateral actuating means 8 is advanced and retracted.
[0055] Referring to Figure 3, disposed within the trowel frame 6 is a flexible seal 17. The flexible seal 17 is coupled to the interior of the trowel frame 6, around the first ends of the conduits 5 and the centre support 4. The flexible seal 17 separating the interior of the trowel frame 6 into an upper section and a lower section. The flexible seal 17 sealing the upper section from the lower section. The cutter head 2, end portion 16 of the centre support 4 and the first ends of the conduits 5 being disposed below the flexible seal 17. The flexible seal 17
WO 2017/004658
PCT/AU2016/000240 configured to allow lateral movement of the centre support 4 while maintaining a seal between the upper section and lower section of the trowel frame 6.
|0056] The flexible seal 17 comprises check valves 18. During cutting of the hole, the check valves 18 are open as a result of the pressure differential generated from the vacuum source connected to the conduits 5. When the check valves are open, air passes from the upper section of the trowel frame 6 to the lower section. The incoming air passes through the check valves 18 and over the cutter head 2, thereby cleaning the cutter head 2, before the incoming air is sucked up through the conduits 5. The flow rate of air over the cutter head 2 is important. This determines the velocity of air and volume of product removed. It creates a direction from outside edges of the hole towards the centre for product movement. As concrete is pumped through the conduits 5, the concrete fills the hole and the lower section of the trowel frame 16 thereby forcing the check valves 18 shut. When the check valves are shut the upper section of the trowel frame 16 is completely sealed from the lower section.
[0057] Disposed between the frame 15 and the trowel frame 6 is a sealing element 7 in the form of a bentonite or stabilising solution to stabilise the walls of the hole during the cutting process. The dimensions of the sealing element 7 in a horizontal plane are greater than those of the trowel frame 16. During cutting of the hole the free ends of the sealing element 7 contact the sidewall s of the hole and are directed upwards. When withdrawing the device 1 from the hole the free ends of the sealing element contacting the sidewalls of the hole invert such that they are directed downwards. In use the sealing element 7 separates and seals the hole into two sections with one section being above the sealing element 7 and the other section being below. The sealing element 7 thereby prevents concrete leaking past the trowel frame 6 when concrete is injected into the hole.
|0058] The frame 15 is modular and is configured to permit vertical coupling of further frame 15 modules thereon. The depth of the pile hole that needs to be drilled determines the number of frame 15 modules that must be coupled to each other.
[0059] During operation, the device is coupled to a drill rig, the drill rig being controlled by a drilling operator. The drill rig is configured to advance the device during cutting of the hole.
The drill rig is further configured to withdraw the device 1 from the hole after the hole has been cut.
WO 2017/004658
PCT/AU2016/000240 [0060] Figure 3 shows the device 1 cutting a hole. The drive means 13 coupled to the cutter head 2 via drive train 19 rotates the cutter head 2 about the axis labelled XX to cut the hole. During cutting of the hole, the conduits 5 are connected to a vacuum source thereby removing air, earth and/or water from the hole. During this process the check valves are open thereby allowing air to pass over the cutter head 2 before being sucked up conduits 5. The cutter head 2 is moved laterally in either direction to reach the cutting blind spot by advancing and retracting the lateral actuating means 8. This process continues while the drill rig advances the device 1 until a predetermined depth has been reached.
[0061] Figure 4 shows the device 1 injecting concrete into the hole. After the hole has been cut, the second ends of the conduits 5 are disconnected from the industrial vacuum and connected to a concrete source. Concrete is then pumped through the conduits 5 and into the hole thereby filling the hole. The concrete forces the check valves 18 closed which seals the upper section of the trowel frame 6 from the lower section. As concrete is pumped into the hole, the concrete in the hole pushes up on the device 1 which indicates to the drilling operator that the device 1 should be withdrawn. This process continues until the hole has been filled with concrete and the device 1 has been completely withdrawn from the hole.
[0062] Figure 5 is a comparison of a concrete pile 23 formed in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention compared to three concrete piles 24 formed using a CFA rig. The width of the concrete pile 23 is the equivalent of three immediately adjacent concrete piles 24. It will be appreciated that the width of the cutter head 2 can be varied to form holes of varying dimensions. Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, fewer holes need to be formed in order to construct a bored pile retaining wall in comparison to the prior art.
[0063] Unlike the prior art, the device according to an embodiment of the present invention forms a bored pile retaining wall having straight walls which provides greater strength in comparison to bored pile retaining walls of the prior art. Accordingly, the concrete piles 23 formed in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention do not need to be formed as deep as concrete piles 24. This may, therefore, result in less concrete being used to form a bored pile retaining wall compared to the prior art. There is provided less rig moves, less alignments and better finish.

PCT/AU2016/000240 [0064] Figure 6 illustrates the cutting sequences required to form a bored pile retaining or foundation wall in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As clearly illustrated, according to an embodiment of the present invention, fewer sequences of concrete piles 23 need to be formed in order to construct a bored pile retaining wall in comparison to the prior art.
[0065] Although the invention has been described with reference to a specific example, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the invention may be embodied in many other forms.
