MANHOLE STRUCTURE
Background of the Invention Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a method for constructing manhole structures, waterproof flexible joints for such manhole structures and the manhole structures thus constructed.
Related Art Statement [0002] There are a digging/reburying construction method, a jacking con-struction method, etc. as pipe-paving technique. According to the jacking construction method, a starting vertical hole and an arrival vertical hole are first dug, and then a sewer pipe is pushed into horizontally from the start vertical hole by means of a jack, while a horizontal hole is being dug by a horizontal boring machine.
[0003] Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional view of a part of a conventional manhole structure 41. As shown in Fig. 4, a manhole 42 is placed in a vertical hole.
In order to minimize working, a steep pipe is generally used as an earth-retaining wall when such a vertical hole is dug. In the construction of the manhole, a steel casing pipe serves as an outer mold frame 44, and the manhole 42 is formed between the outer mold frame 44 and an inner mold frame 45.
In order to minimize working, a steep pipe is generally used as an earth-retaining wall when such a vertical hole is dug. In the construction of the manhole, a steel casing pipe serves as an outer mold frame 44, and the manhole 42 is formed between the outer mold frame 44 and an inner mold frame 45.
[0004] When the manhole 42 is constructed within such a vertical hole, an end portion of a pipe 43 such as sewer pipe, as previously placed, is buried in a concrete wall 46 of the manhole as required from an installation space for the manhole 42.
[0005] Further, as shown in Fig. 4, an interface 47 between the pipe 43 and the concrete wall 46 of the manhole is likely to serve as a passage for leaking water. Under these circumstances, a sand-attached short pipe in which sand 48 is glued around an outer peripheral surface 43a of the pipe 43 is often used.
[0006] In the manhole structure 41 shown in Fig. 4, the concrete 46 is rigidly joined to the pipe 43, so that there is the possibility that the pipe 43 may be broken on earthquake or the like. Particularly when the pipe 43 is a Hume pipe CA 02427846 2003-05-02 02838 (PCT'/JP02/07226) or porcelain pipe, it is likely to be broken on ground displacement.
[0007] When the pipe 3 is a flexible pipe such as a resin pipe, it is less likely to be broken by ground displacement, but there is still a high possibility that it may be broken. Further, the resin pipe is not bonded to the concrete, so that a water passage is formed when a sand-attached short pipe is not used. Thus, the resin pipe has a problem in waterproof.
[0008] As shown in Fig. 4, in the case of the sand-attached short pipe, a fine gap 49 or the like is formed under the pipe 43 due to the dewatering sink before curing of the concrete 43 or after drying shrinkage of the concrete 46 with lapse of years, thereby causing water leakage.
[0009] Since the flexible pipe such as the resin pipe is particularly flexible, it is likely to become flat due to ground pressure or the like, so that formation of water passage cannot be completely prevented even by using the sand-attached short pipe.
[0010]

[0018] According to the present invention, the manhole structure can be constructed by fixing the covering of the cylindrical flexible portion to the outer periphery of the pipe and pouring the manhole filler around the outer periphery of the fixing portion of the cylindrical flexible portion.
[0019] In the present invention, the filler for manhole (hereinafter referred to as "manhole filler") includes concrete to be poured into a mold frame for constructing the wall of the manhole on site or a filler to be filled in a space between an inner face of a hole formed in the wall of an assembled manhole or CA 02427846 2003-05-02 02838 (PCT/JP02/07226) the like and the waterproof flexible joint for fixing the waterproof flexible joint to the face of the hole.
[0020] In the present invention, the connecting portion of the cylindrical flexible portion is made of the elastic material capable of absorbing displacement between the manhole and the pipe. This connecting portion is located between the manhole and the pipe, and serves to absorb the displacement between the manhole and the pipe.
[0021] In the present invention, the rigid cylindrical portion supports the fixing portion of the cylindrical flexible portion and fix the fixing portion to the manhole when the manhole filler is poured around the outer periphery of the fixing portion of the cylindrical flexible portion.
[0022] In the present invention, the rigid cylindrical portion keeps a space between the fixing portion and the covering portion of the cylindrical flexible portion, and the connecting portion of the cylindrical flexible portion absorbs displacement between the manhole and the pipe within this space.
[0023] According to the present invention, after the waterproof flexible joint for manhole structure is fixed around the outer periphery of the pipe, the manhole filler is poured around the outer periphery of the waterproof flexible joint.

[0065] The manhole structure 1 of Fig. 1 is constructed in a vertical hole, and an earth-retaining casing 11 may be used as a mold frame for the manhole filler.
[0066] Fig. 3 shows another embodiment of the manhole structure according to the present invention.
The manhole structure 21 is almost the same as the manhole structure 1 except that a waterproof flexible joint 24 for manhole structure is used.
[0067] The waterproof flexible joint 24 comprises a rigid cylindrical portion 25 and a cylindrical flexible portion 26.
[0068] The cylindrical flexible portion 26 comprises a covering portion 26a to cover a outer periphery of a pipe 23, a fixing portion 26b to be fixed to a manhole 22 and a connecting portion 26c connecting the covering portion 26a to.
