Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of tunnel cleaning, and in particular to a tunnel cleaning machine. Background Art

[0002] Usually, the cleaning of a tunnel will temporarily close the passage of a single tunnel, causing the passage pressure of another tunnel to increase, seriously affecting the passage efficiency of the tunnel. At present, some long and large tunnels in China carry out cleaning work regularly. The main cleaning methods are: manual cleaning method, roller brush chemical cleaning method, high-pressure water jet cleaning method, etc. In the manual cleaning method, the cleaning personnel use chemical agents to clean the tunnel civil structure, electromechanical equipment and decoration. This cleaning method is not only labor-intensive, but also has low cleaning efficiency, poor cleaning quality and great environmental pollution. In addition, the chemical agents have a great harm to the health of the cleaning personnel. The roller brush cleaning method mainly uses machines instead of manual chemical agents to clean the tunnel. This method effectively improves the cleaning efficiency, but due to the existence of cleaning dead corners, the cleaning quality is poor, and the chemical cleaning agent will cause pollution to the environment when cleaning sewage and wastewater. High-pressure water jet cleaning technology is to pressurize water to tens to thousands of atmospheres through a high-pressure water generator, and then convert the water into a high-speed micro-water jet through a spray device with a fine aperture. The speed of this water jet is generally more than one times the Mach number. This high-energy, high-speed water flow can impact the surface of the object in a positive or tangential direction, and can complete the cleaning and maintenance of the tunnel. However, the water jet has a large amount of energy, and it is easy to damage the cleaning object during the cleaning process. The cleaning medium uses water, and the humidity in the tunnel increases, which is very harmful to the electromechanical equipment.

[0003] A patent document with application number 201210357293.X in China and publication date 2012.12.19 discloses a tunnel dry ice cleaning machine, which includes an engineering vehicle, an air compressor, a liquid carbon dioxide storage tank arranged on the engineering vehicle, a cleaning nozzle machine bogie, a cleaning control display, a control platform and a dry ice cleaning device. The air compressor is rigidly connected to the engineering vehicle through a traction frame; the cleaning control display is installed on the control platform to display the status parameters of the entire equipment; a control system is encapsulated in the control platform, and the entire equipment is controlled by the control system; the dry ice cleaning device includes a dry ice generation pipe, a compressed air pipe and a cleaning nozzle pipe.

[0004] However, the engineering vehicle of the cleaning machine needs to move to the right in the tunnel, so that during cleaning, the nozzle is far away from the tunnel surface and cannot meet the requirements of detailed cleaning; and the multiple nozzle groups of the cleaning machine are respectively arranged on the cleaning nozzle machine bogie. The control system adjusts the angle of the cleaning nozzle machine bogie to keep the cleaning distance between the nozzle on the cleaning nozzle machine bogie and the tunnel surface consistent. This adjustment method has a small adjustable range and can only adjust the lateral distance between the nozzle and the tunnel surface, but cannot adjust the longitudinal height of the nozzle on the cleaning machine. In this way, the high tunnel surface cannot be effectively cleaned and the cleaning effect is poor; then, there is no dirt recovery device on the cleaning machine, and the solid dirt dropped after cleaning and the carbon dioxide generated by the gasification of dry ice cannot be recovered, causing environmental pollution.

One end of the shock absorber 223 is hinged to the frame 4, and the other end of the shock absorber 223 is hinged to the first connecting member 2221.

[0060] The second wheel 2211 is a driven wheel. When the second wheel is driven, the first connecting portion 22121 and the second connecting portion 22122 swing, and the vibration of the frame caused by the movement of the second wheel is reduced by the shock absorbing device 223 . A height adjustment connecting rod 2142 extends downward through the height adjustment movable part 2141, and the first wheel is connected to the height adjustment connecting part through a bearing connecting part, so that the height adjustment drive can drive the height adjustment movable part 2141 to move. When the height of the first wheel needs to be adjusted, the height adjustment drive motor 2151 rotates, and the height adjustment movable part 2141 is moved up and down through the height adjustment threaded shaft 2152. The height adjustment movable part 2141 moves up and down between the upper support part and the lower support part, and drives the first wheel to move up and down. A fixing part is connected between the upper support part and the lower support part, so that the upper support part and the lower support part can be connected to fix the upper support part and the lower support part, and the height adjustment movable part can be moved on the fixing part. The height adjustment movable part 2141 can drive the first wheel to move up and down in the space between the bottom of the frame and the first wheel along the sliding direction of the fixing part 2133; in this way, the up and down height of the first wheel can be adjusted so that the first wheel and the second wheel are not on the same horizontal plane.

[0061] When the tunnel cleaning machine is working, the up and down height of the first wheel is adjusted according to the height of the tunnel shoulder, so that the first wheel is on the road and the second wheel is on the shoulder. Such a tunnel cleaning machine occupies less road area when working, effectively reducing the impact of cleaning on tunnel traffic efficiency.

[0062] The working principle of a tunnel cleaning machine provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0063] a) According to the height control of the tunnel shoulder, adjust the height of the first wheel so that the first wheel is on the road surface and the second wheel is on the shoulder; when the first wheel is adjusted to a suitable position, proceed to step b);

[0064] b). Control the air compression mechanism to start, and when the pressure of the air compression mechanism reaches the working requirements, proceed to step c);

[0065] c) Control the recovery device to start, the first battery valve and the second battery valve to open; when the gas is mixed and circulated at the nozzle, proceed to step d);

[0066] d). Control the nozzle to clean the tunnel wall, and the controller controls the recovery device to absorb the dirt that falls off the tunnel wall after cleaning and the gaseous carbon dioxide formed by the vaporization of dry ice; when the tunnel wall cleaning is completed, proceed to step e);

[0067] e) Control the first battery valve, the second battery valve and the air compression device to close; when the first battery valve, the second battery valve and the air compression device are closed and the recovery device has completed the recovery of the material, proceed to step f)

[0068] f). Control the recovery device to close, the nozzle to restore the initial state, and proceed to step g);

[0069] g). Adjust the height of the first wheel so that the first wheel and the second wheel are at the same level.

[0070] Before cleaning, the first wheel and the second wheel are at the same level. During operation, the height of the first wheel is adjusted according to the current tunnel shoulder height so that the first wheel contacts the road surface of the current tunnel and the second wheel contacts the tunnel shoulder. After cleaning, the height of the first wheel is adjusted again so that the first wheel returns to the same level as the second wheel.

[0071] This cleaning method uses a tunnel cleaning machine to clean the tunnel. The nozzle moves longitudinally, horizontally, and swings left and right to achieve all-round cleaning of the tunnel. It has a fast cleaning speed, high cleaning degree, and high work efficiency. By adjusting the height of the first wheel, the first wheel of the cleaning machine is on the road surface and the second wheel is on the shoulder, which reduces the occupation of the road and reduces the risk of traffic accidents. The dirt after tunnel cleaning and the carbon dioxide formed by the gasification of dry ice are immediately recovered through the negative pressure principle, reducing secondary operations and thus reducing work costs. Moreover, tunnel cleaning and absorption of recycled materials are carried out simultaneously, with high work efficiency and reduced operation costs.
