[0002] The lining structure of railway tunnels is usually constructed by the cast-in-place concrete process. There are quality defects such as lining cavities and insufficient lining thickness in some sections. After being affected by the train load during the operation period, various diseases are likely to occur, posing a great safety hazard to railway operation. The prefabrication of tunnel structures can effectively solve the quality defects of the cast-in-place process and is also an important way to improve the tunnel construction speed and reduce the construction cost. The tunnel structure prefabricated assembly technology is one of the directions for the professional, factory-based, and mechanized development of tunnel construction. In recent years, with the development of the prefabricated assembly technology for underground projects, the prefabricated assembly of the internal structure of large-diameter shield tunnels has received more and more attention.

The arc-shaped member is the bottom support member. The middle wall is installed at the midline position on the upper surface of the arc-shaped member, dividing the tunnel into left and right line channels along the midline.

[0027] The present invention discloses the above-mentioned automatic control method for attitude adjustment, grasping, and lifting of the precast middle partition wall in a shield tunnel. The control method is as follows:

[0028] Step c, parallel attitude adjustment of the middle partition wall to be installed, specifically:

[0029] Step c.1, the chuck ranging laser sensor detects the distance between the chuck and the middle partition wall to be installed, and determines whether the parking position of the middle partition wall to be installed meets the X-direction grasping distance requirement of the chuck. When the above distance does not meet the requirement, the intelligent control system sends a signal to the vehicle carrier platform to re-adjust the parking position; when the above distance meets the requirement, proceed to the next step;

[0030] Step c.2: The gripper disc ranging laser sensor detects the distance between the gripper disc and the middle partition wall to be installed, and inputs the distance value into the intelligent control system. The intelligent control system calculates the parallelism difference between the gripper disc and the middle partition wall to be installed, and obtains the rotation direction and angle of the upper rotating platform of the vehicle carrier platform around the Z-axis, and the swing direction and angle of the gripper disc around the Y-axis;

[0031] Step c.3: The intelligent control system issues a drive control command for the rotation drive cylinder 3-8, causing the upper rotating platform to rotate to complete the parallelism adjustment of the middle partition wall to be installed around the Z-axis;

[0032] Step c.4: The intelligent control system issues a drive control command for the swing cylinder to drive the gripper disc to swing and complete the parallelism adjustment of the gripper disc around the Y-axis;

[0033] Step c.5: Recheck the parallelism error between the gripper disc and the middle partition wall to be installed through step c.2. When the parallelism does not meet the requirements, repeat steps c.2, c.3, and c.4; when the parallelism meets the requirements, proceed to the next step;

[0034] Step c.6: The intelligent control system sends a drive command for the transverse movement drive cylinder to the vehicle carrier platform, causing the lower transverse movement platform to approach the tunnel center line and the middle partition wall to be installed to approach the tunnel center line;

[0035] Step d: Identification of the gripping holes and center holes of the middle partition wall to be installed, specifically as follows:

[0036] Step d.1: The center hole vision recognition system recognizes the center hole of the gripping hole of the middle partition wall and determines the displacement deviation between the center point of the gripper disc and the center of the center hole of the gripping hole of the middle partition wall to be installed in the Y-axis and Z-axis directions;

[0037] Step d.2: Based on the displacement deviation between the center point of the gripper disc and the center of the center hole of the gripping hole of the middle partition wall to be installed in the Y-axis direction, the intelligent control system forms a drive control command for the longitudinal movement cylinder of the middle partition wall installation machine to drive the gripper disc to move in the Y-axis direction and complete the positioning of the gripper disc and the middle partition wall to be installed in the Y-axis direction;

[0038] Step d.3: Based on the displacement deviation between the center point of the gripper disc and the center of the center hole of the gripping hole of the middle partition wall to be installed in the Z-axis direction, the intelligent control system forms a drive control command for the lifting cylinder of the vehicle carrier platform to drive the middle lifting platform to move in the Z-axis direction and complete the positioning requirement of the gripper disc and the middle partition wall to be installed in the Z-axis direction;

[0039] Step d.4: Repeat step d.1 to recheck the centering error between the gripper disc and the center hole of the gripping hole of the middle partition wall to be installed. When the centering error does not meet the requirements, repeat steps d.1, d.2, and d.3; when the centering error meets the requirements, proceed to the next step;

[0040] Step d.5: The actuating device operates to drive the gripper disc to grip the four grab holes of the middle partition wall by the hole recognition laser sensor, so as to align the lifting pin shaft with the grab holes of the middle partition wall.

[0041] Step e: Grasp and lift the middle partition wall to be installed.

[0042] Further, this step e is specifically as follows:

[0043] Step e.1: The actuating device operates to extend the gripper disc towards the middle partition wall to be installed. After the lifting pin shaft passes through the grab holes of the middle partition wall, the actuating device stops.

[0044] Step e.2: The rectangular frame rises to lift the middle partition wall to be installed through the lifting pin shaft, disengaging from the lower vehicle carrier platform; the intelligent control system sends a signal to the vehicle carrier platform to indicate that it can drive away.

[0045] Further, before step c, there is also step b: The middle partition wall installation machine is in place, specifically as follows:

[0046] Step b.1: The intelligent control system receives the information that the vehicle carrier platform has parked in place.

[0047] Step b.2: The intelligent control system starts the traveling mechanism of the middle partition wall installation machine and moves it towards the middle partition wall to be installed.

[0048] Step b.3: After successively identifying the vehicle carrier platform through lateral distance measurement, it is set that the middle partition wall installation machine continues to move forward a certain distance and then automatically stops moving forward. The middle partition wall installation machine is in place, and the gripper disc is initially centered with the grab holes of the middle partition wall to be installed in the X direction.

[0049] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The middle partition wall installation machine and the vehicle carrier platform are used in combination. After the middle partition wall randomly placed on the vehicle carrier platform is transported in place, the middle partition wall installation machine can autonomously identify the attitude of the middle partition wall and accurately grip it. The whole process is automatically and informatically precisely controlled, ensuring that the gripping and unloading process of large-tonnage prefabricated components is unmanned, improving work efficiency and safety.

[0087] The above-mentioned automatic control method for attitude adjustment, grasping and lifting of the precast middle partition wall in the shield tunnel is as follows:

[0088] Step a: The middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed is transported to the installation position, specifically including:

[0089] Step a.1: The vehicle carrying platform 3 transports the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed and travels along one side of the tunnel 5 to the installation position of the middle partition wall.

[0090] Step a.2: The vehicle carrying platform 3 and the middle partition wall installation machine 1 establish a wireless communication connection through the intelligent control system 1-6.

[0091] Step a.3: The vehicle carrying platform 3 sends a parking in place message to the middle partition wall installation machine 1.

[0092] Step b: The middle partition wall installation machine 1 is in place, as shown in Figure 5 and 6 shown, specifically including:

[0093] Step b.1: The intelligent control system 1-6 of the middle partition wall installation machine 1 receives the parking in place message from the vehicle carrying platform 3.

[0094] Step b.2: The intelligent control system 1-6 starts the traveling mechanism of the middle partition wall installation machine 1 and moves it towards the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed.

[0095] Step b.3: During the movement of the middle partition wall installation machine 1, the position relative to the vehicle carrying platform 3 is identified through the positioning laser sensor 1-18: during the forward movement of the middle partition wall installation machine 1, after the front end (forward defense line) and the rear end positioning laser sensors 1-18 sequentially identify the vehicle carrying platform 3 through lateral distance measurement, it is set that the middle partition wall installation machine 1 automatically stops moving forward after continuing to move forward a certain distance.

Preferably, the maximum distance is used as the judgment parameter to determine whether the parking position of the middle partition wall 2-1 (or the vehicle carrying platform 3) meets the horizontal (X-direction) gripping distance requirement of the gripper 1-15. When the above distance does not meet the requirement, the intelligent control system 1-6 sends a signal to the vehicle carrying platform 3 to re-adjust the parking position; when the above distance meets the requirement, the middle partition wall installation machine 1 can proceed to the next step;

[0099] Step c.2: Detection of the parallelism of the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed. The distance between the gripper 1-15 and the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed is detected by the above-mentioned gripper ranging laser sensor 1-20, and four distance values are input into the intelligent control system 1-6. The intelligent control system 1-6 obtains the parallelism difference between the gripper 1-15 and the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed, and analyzes the rotation direction and angle of the upper rotating platform 3-7 of the vehicle carrying platform 3 around the Z axis, and the swing direction and angle information of the gripper 1-15 around the Y axis;

[0100] Step c.3: Adjustment of the parallelism of the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed. The intelligent control system 1-6 gives a drive control command to the rotary drive cylinder 3-8 according to the rotation direction and angle information of the upper rotating platform 3-7 around the Z axis described in c.2, so that the upper rotating platform 3-7 rotates to complete the parallelism adjustment of the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed around the Z axis;

[0101] Step c.4: Adjustment of the parallelism of the gripper 1-15. The intelligent control system 1-6 gives a drive control command to the swing cylinder 1-8 according to the swing direction and angle information of the gripper 1-15 around the Y axis described in step c.2, and drives the gripper 1-15 to swing to complete the parallelism adjustment of the gripper 1-15 around the Y axis;

[0102] Step c.3 and step c.4 have no sequence, and can be adjusted successively or synchronously.

[0103] Step c.5: After the parallelism adjustment in steps c.2, c.3, and c.4, the gripper 1-15 is parallel to the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed. The parallelism error between the gripper 1-15 and the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed is rechecked through step c.2. When the parallelism does not meet the requirements, steps c.2, c.3, and c.4 are repeated; when the parallelism meets the requirements, the next step can be executed;

[0104] Step c.6: The intelligent control system 1-6 sends a drive command to the transverse movement drive cylinder 3-2 of the vehicle carrying platform 3, so that the lower transverse movement platform 3-1 approaches the center line of the tunnel 5, and further makes the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed approach the center line of the tunnel 5. This step can shorten the lateral distance for the subsequent middle partition wall grasping step and make up for the deficiency that the vehicle carrying platform 3 cannot approach the center line of the tunnel 5 sufficiently.

[0105] As an optimization or improvement of the present invention, step d for identifying the grasping holes 2-3 and the center holes of the middle partition wall to be installed specifically includes:

[0106] Step d.1: The center hole of the middle partition wall grasping hole 2-3 is identified by the center hole vision recognition system 1-21 on the gripper 1-15, and the displacement deviation between the center point of the gripper 1-15 and the center hole center of the middle partition wall grasping hole 2-3 to be installed in the Y-axis and Z-axis directions is determined.

[0107] Step d.2: The intelligent control system 1-6 forms a driving control instruction for the longitudinal movement cylinder 1-5 of the middle partition wall installation machine according to the displacement deviation in the Y-axis direction between the center point of the gripper 1-15 and the center hole center of the grabbing hole 2-3 of the middle partition wall to be installed, and drives the longitudinal movement slider 1-4 of the installation trolley to move in the Y-axis direction to meet the positioning requirements of the gripper 1-15 and the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed in the Y-axis direction;

[0108] Step d.3: The intelligent control system 1-6 forms a driving control instruction for the lifting cylinder 3-4 of the vehicle carrying platform 3 according to the displacement deviation in the Z-axis direction between the center point of the gripper 1-15 and the center hole center of the grabbing hole 2-3 of the middle partition wall to be installed, and drives the middle layer lifting platform 3-5 to move in the Z-axis direction to meet the positioning requirements of the gripper 1-15 and the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed in the Z-axis direction;

[0109] Steps d.2 and d.3 have no sequence and can be adjusted successively or synchronously.

[0110] Step d.4: After the parallelism adjustment in steps d.1, d.2, and d.3, the center of the gripper 1-15 and the center hole of the grabbing hole 2-3 of the middle partition wall to be installed can be centered. The centering error between the gripper 1-15 and the center hole of the grabbing hole 2-3 of the middle partition wall to be installed is rechecked through step d.1. When the centering error does not meet the requirements, steps d.1, d.2, and d.3 are repeated; when the centering error meets the requirements, the next step can be executed;

[0111] Step d.5: After the center of the gripper 1-15 and the center hole of the grabbing hole 2-3 of the middle partition wall to be installed are centered, the flipping cylinder 1-12 of the middle partition wall installation machine 1 is driven, and the 4 grabbing hole recognition laser sensors 1-19 installed are used to recognize the 4 grabbing holes 2-3 of the middle partition wall. The grabbing hole recognition laser sensor 1-19 recognizes the grabbing hole 2-3 of the middle partition wall to be installed by detecting the sudden change in the distance value from the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed. The flipping cylinder 1-12 can rotate reciprocally. When one of the 4 grabbing hole recognition laser sensors 1-19 recognizes the edge of the grabbing hole 2-3 of the middle partition wall, the flipping cylinder 1-12 continues to rotate by a set angle, and the centering of the lifting pin 1-16 and the grabbing hole 2-3 of the middle partition wall can be achieved. At the same time, the other 3 above-mentioned grabbing hole recognition laser sensors 1-19 can be used as the discrimination conditions for the centering of the above holes.

[0112] Through the above steps d.1, d.2, d.3, d.4, and d.5, the centering of the lifting pin 1-16 and the grabbing hole 2-3 of the middle partition wall can be achieved.

[0113] As an optimization or improvement of the present invention, the specific steps for grabbing and lifting the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed in step e include:

[0114] Step e.1: Drive the transverse movement oil cylinder 1-17 of the middle partition wall installation machine 1 to extend the transverse movement inner sliding sleeve 1-10, the gripper 1-15, and the lifting pin shaft 1-16 of the installation trolley towards the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed. After the lifting pin shaft 1-16 passes through the middle partition wall grabbing hole 2-3, stop driving the transverse movement oil cylinder 1-17;

[0115] e.2: Synchronously drive the four telescopic legs 1-2 of the middle partition wall installation machine 1 to lift the middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed through the lifting pin shaft 1-16, disengaging it from the lower vehicle carrying platform 3 and maintaining a certain safe distance. The intelligent control system 1-6 sends a signal to the vehicle carrying platform 3 indicating that it can drive away;

[0116] Step e.3: The vehicle carrying platform 3 receives the signal sent by the intelligent control system 1-6 indicating that it can drive away, and the lower layer transverse movement platform 3-1, the middle layer jacking platform 3-5, and the upper layer rotating platform 3-7 return to their initial states. Then the driver can start the vehicle carrying platform 3 to leave and prepare to transport the next middle partition wall 2-1 to be installed;

[0117] Step e.4: The intelligent control system 1-6 disconnects the communication between the middle partition wall installation machine 1 and the vehicle carrying platform 3 and prepares for the subsequent work of the middle partition wall installation machine 1.
