DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] In view of this, the core of the present invention is to provide a tunnel construction equipment to achieve both tunnel construction and continuous wall construction at the bottom of the tunnel.

[0038] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a tunnel construction equipment, including a shield machine 100 and a TRD equipment 200 (TRD is the abbreviation of Trench cutting Re-mixing Deep, which means a cement soil mixing continuous wall of equal thickness).

[0040] Among them, the shield machine 100 includes a shield shell 101, a cutterhead 102, a shield drive system 103, a propulsion cylinder group 104 and an assembler 105. The shield shell 101 includes a front shield shell 1011, an extended shield shell 1012, a middle shield shell 1013 and a rear shield shell 1014 connected in sequence. The cutterhead 102 is arranged at one end of the front shield shell 1011 away from the extended shield shell 1012. The shield drive system 103 is arranged at the front shield shell 1011 and connected to the cutterhead 102; the assembler 105 is arranged at the rear shield shell 1014 for assembling tunnel lining segments 600; the telescopic end of the propulsion cylinder group 104 can abut against the tunnel lining segments 600 to push the shield machine 100 to move; the TRD equipment 200 is arranged in the extended shield shell 1012 for continuous wall construction at the bottom of the tunnel.

[0041] When the tunnel construction equipment provided by the present invention is used, the tunnel lining segments 600 are assembled by the assembling machine 105 arranged in the rear shield shell 1014, and the cutter head 102 is driven to rotate by the driving system arranged in the front shield shell 1011, so that the cutter head 102 excavates the stratum to form a tunnel; after the tunnel construction is completed, the propulsion cylinder group 104 is started, and since the telescopic end of the propulsion cylinder group 104 is in contact with the tunnel lining segments 600, the telescopic end of the propulsion cylinder group 104 can push the shield machine 100 to move in the tunnel as it expands and contracts. After the shield machine 100 moves to the section of the tunnel where a continuous wall needs to be added, the continuous wall construction is performed on the bottom of the tunnel by the TRD equipment 200 arranged in the extended shield shell 1012. It can be seen that the tunnel construction equipment provided by the present invention cleverly combines the shield and TRD methods. It can not only independently carry out shield tunnel construction, but also synchronously construct the continuous wall at the bottom of the tunnel. On the one hand, the one-time reinforcement of the tunnel and the continuous wall at the bottom of the tunnel is realized. On the other hand, since a continuous wall is formed at the bottom of the tunnel, the continuous wall plays a certain supporting role on the tunnel, reduces the sinking phenomenon of the lining segments of the formed tunnel section, and improves the tunnel forming quality.

[0042] It should be noted that the present invention does not specifically limit the length, radial width and other dimensions of the extended shield shell 1012 . As long as the dimensions can meet the use requirements, they belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0043] In addition, the TRD equipment 200 keeps the cutter head 102 of the shield machine 100 rotating during construction to prevent the cutter head 102 from getting stuck or getting stuck when the cutter head 102 stops rotating and needs to be re-constructed. This causes the cutter head 102 to be stuck and unable to start normally.

[0044] The extended shield shell 1012 provided by the present invention can be connected between the front shield shell 1011 and the middle shield shell 1013 by welding, bolting or socketing. As long as the connection method can meet the use requirements, it belongs to the protection scope of the present invention; optionally, the shield shell 101 provided in the embodiment of the present invention sets the extended shield shell in the middle of the front shield shell 1011 and the middle shield shell 1013, and the extended shield shell 1012 is connected to the front shield shell 1011 and the middle shield shell 1013 by bolts, so that the extended shield shell 1012 can be independently disassembled and assembled, which is convenient for the assembly and later maintenance of the tunnel construction equipment; the tail shield shell 1014 is coaxially welded and fixed to the end of the middle shield shell 1013 away from the extended shield shell 1012, and has good connection strength.

[0045] Furthermore, the extended shield shell 1012 is provided with an installation platform for installing the TRD equipment 200 and an operating platform 1012-d for operation, so that the TRD equipment 200 can be installed on the installation platform. When personnel are required to operate the TRD equipment 200, the personnel operate the TRD equipment 200 on the operating platform 1012-d.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, a material bin 1013-c and a personnel cabin 1013-d arranged from top to bottom are arranged in the middle shield shell 1013, and a material transportation system 500 is used to transport the parts in the material bin 1013-c to the preset workstations in the extended shield shell 1012. The material bin 1013-c and the personnel cabin 1013-d are respectively arranged at the center and bottom of the middle shield shell 1013, the personnel cabin 1013-d can be connected to the operating platform 1012-d, the material bin 1013-c is connected to the extended shield shell 1012, and an electric control cabin 1013-e is also arranged on one side of the material bin 1013-c close to the rear shield shell 1014, so that before the TRD equipment 200 digs, the material transportation system 500 can be used. After the driven cutter head 2033 of the chain cutter assembly 203 described below is transported to the installation / disassembly station in the extended shield through the material bin 1013-c, the operator enters the operating platform 1012-d in the extended shield shell 1012 from the personnel cabin 1013-d, and installs the driven cutter head 2033 under the chain cutter driving end 2031 of the chain cutter assembly 203 described below, so that the TRD equipment 200 can carry out subsequent excavation work; after the personnel exit the personnel cabin 1013-d, close the hatch of the electrical control cabin 1013-e and the hatch of the personnel cabin 1013-d, so that a closed space is formed inside the extended shield shell 1012, and pressurizes the extended shield shell 1012 through the pressure maintaining system described below.

[0047] In addition, the bottom of the extended shield shell 1012 is provided with a bottom gate 1012-a, sealing grease 1012-b and a polymer temporary sealing plate 1012-c in sequence from the inside to the outside to achieve sealing of the bottom of the extended shield shell 1012; the tunnel construction equipment also includes an electric control system 400, and the bottom gate 1012-a is electrically connected to the electric control system 400 to control the opening and closing of the bottom gate 1012-a through the electric control system 400, thereby improving the degree of automation of the tunnel construction equipment.

[0048] It should be noted that the above-mentioned electrical control system 400 can, but is not limited to, control the bottom gate 1012-a of the extended shield shell 1012. The electrical control system 400 is divided into several groups of subsystems, including all electrical control components with functions such as control, monitoring and protection required for the normal operation of the tunnel construction equipment. All electrical control components are integrated in the tunnel construction equipment, and each group of electrical control subsystems independently controls the operation of the corresponding modules.

[0049] The TRD equipment 200 provided by the present invention includes a base frame 201, a sliding frame 202, a sliding support, a lifting cylinder, a TRD control host and a chain knife assembly 203, so that the sliding frame 202, the sliding support, the lifting cylinder, the TRD control host and the chain knife assembly 203 can be installed through the base frame 201.

[0050] Specifically, the sliding frame 202 includes a first sliding frame 202 and a second sliding frame 202 which are relatively arranged along the center line of the base frame 201. The first sliding frame 202 and the second sliding frame 202 are hinged to the inner side of the base frame 201, and can swing back and forth around the hinge to fine-tune the position of the sliding frame 202, so that the chain knife assembly 203 connected to the sliding frame 202 can be fine-tuned, so that the driven cutter head 2033 of the chain knife assembly 203 is in the excavation starting position directly above the bottom gate 1012-a of the extended shield shell 1012 before starting excavation; the sliding support is slidably connected to the sliding frame 202, and the chain knife assembly 203 includes a chain knife driving end connected to the sliding support by bolts. 2031, a chain knife box 2032 and a driven knife head 2033, and the number of chain knife boxes 2032 is multiple, the chain knife driving end 2031, multiple chain knife boxes 2032 and a driven knife head 2033 are connected in series from top to bottom to form a whole, and the lifting cylinder is arranged on the sliding frame 202, which is used to drive the chain knife assembly 203 to perform lifting movement through the sliding support, so as to drive the sliding support to slide up and down on the sliding frame through the lifting cylinder, so that the sliding support drives the chain knife driving end 2031 to perform lifting movement, so that the multiple chain knife boxes 2032 and a driven knife head 2033 connected in series with the chain knife driving end 2031 can perform lifting movement, so that the driven knife head 2033 can dig the soil.

[0051] It should be noted that the present invention does not specifically limit the installation position of the above-mentioned TRD control host in the extended shield shell 1012. In actual applications, the TRD control host can be installed separately at a reasonable position of the extended shield shell 1012 for easy maintenance, and electrically connected to each integrated module of the TRD equipment 200 through the corresponding wiring interface.

[0052] In addition, the TRD equipment 200 further comprises a first gripper set 204, a second gripper set 205 and a third gripper set 206 for supporting the base frame 201 on the inner wall of the extended shield shell 1012, so that the TRD equipment 200 is disposed in the shell of the extended shield by three sets of grippers.

[0053] Specifically, the first support shoe group 204, the second support shoe group 205 and the third support shoe group 206 are connected to the base frame 201 through the first tightening cylinder group, the second tightening cylinder group and the third tightening cylinder group, respectively, so that the first support shoe group 204, the second support shoe group 205 and the third support shoe group 206 are all tightly fitted with the inner wall of the extended shield shell 1012 through fine adjustment of the first tightening cylinder group, the second tightening cylinder group and the third tightening cylinder group, so as to achieve the function of supporting the base frame 201; and the first support shoe group 204 and the second support shoe group 205 are both slidably connected to the base frame 201 in the first direction X, and the third support shoe group 206 is slidably connected to the base frame 201 in the second direction Y, and the first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular to each other, so that the entire base frame 201 can be moved and adjusted in the first direction X and the second direction Y.

[0054] like Figure 3 In the side structural diagram of the TRD equipment 200 shown, the first direction X is the direction from the front shield shell 1011 to the rear shield shell 1014 in the horizontal plane, and the second direction Y is the direction perpendicular to the first direction X in the horizontal plane. Therefore, the front and rear movement of the TRD equipment 200 can be achieved by the first support shoe group 204 and the second support shoe group 205 being slidably connected to the base frame 201 in the first direction X, and the left and right adjustment of the TRD equipment 200 can be achieved by the third support shoe group 206 being slidably connected to the base frame 201 in the second direction Y.

[0055] In addition, the tunnel construction equipment provided by the present invention also includes a circulation system 300, which includes a first circulation subsystem and a second circulation subsystem. The first circulation subsystem is connected to the air cushion chamber of the shield machine 100 to form a circulation system 300 inside the shield machine 100 to meet the slag slurry transportation needs during shield construction. The second circulation subsystem is used to transport slag slurry and replace mud for the TRD equipment 200. The first circulation subsystem and the second circulation subsystem jointly transport slag slurry and replace mud for the tunnel construction equipment provided by the present invention to ensure the normal operation of the tunnel construction equipment.

[0056] Furthermore, the tunnel construction equipment also includes a pressure maintaining system for adjusting the pressure in the extended shield shell 1012, as well as the pressure in the excavation chamber and the air cushion chamber in the front shield shell 1011, so that the pressure in the extended shield shell 1012 is balanced with the water and soil pressure outside the tunnel construction equipment by adjusting the pressure in the excavation chamber and the air cushion chamber, as well as the pressure in the extended shield shell 1012 through the pressure maintaining system, and when the TRD equipment 200 is under construction, the stability of the mud level flowing into the extended shield shell 1012 is maintained.

[0057] Furthermore, the tunnel construction equipment also includes a freezing circulation system and a thawing circulation system. A frozen solidified layer 700 is set at the bottom of the extended shield shell 1012. The freezing circulation system is used to freeze the frozen solidified layer 700, so that the frozen solidified layer is frozen solidified through the freezing circulation system, and the bottom of the extended shield shell 1012 is well sealed. The thawing circulation system is used to thaw the frozen solidified layer, so that when the TRD equipment 200 needs to continue excavating in the future, the frozen solidified layer 700 can be thawed through the thawing circulation system.

[0058] The middle shield shell 1013 of the tunnel construction equipment provided by the present invention is provided with a mounting bracket 1013-a and an annular reinforcement 1013-b. The number of the propulsion cylinder group 104 is multiple, and the multiple propulsion cylinder groups 104 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the inner part of the middle shield shell 1013. One end of the propulsion cylinder group 104 is connected to the mounting bracket 1013-a in a floating support manner, and the other end is connected to the annular reinforcement 1013-b. The assembling machine 105 is installed on the mounting bracket 1013-a by bolt connection. The bracket 1013-a is located on one side away from the annular reinforcement 1013-b and in the tail shield shell 1014, so as to enhance the strength of the middle shield shell 1013 by installing the bracket 1013-a and the annular reinforcement 1013-b. At the same time, the assembler 105 and the propulsion cylinder group 104 are respectively installed on both sides of the installation bracket 1013-a, and the propulsion direction of the entire tunnel construction equipment jack is fine-tuned through the floating support connection between the propulsion cylinder group 104 and the installation bracket 1013-a.

[0059] In addition, the tunnel construction equipment also includes an auxiliary system, which includes all auxiliary measures and systems such as hydraulic system, electrical system and sealing system required for the normal operation of the tunnel construction equipment, to assist in the normal operation of all functions of the tunnel construction equipment.

[0060] like Figures 4 to 13 As shown, when the tunnel construction equipment is used, when the shield machine 100 excavates to a section where a continuous wall needs to be added, the shield machine 100 and the TRD equipment 200 are started to construct synchronously, which mainly includes the following steps:

[0061] ① After the shield machine 100 advances to the section where a continuous wall needs to be added, the assembler 105 completes the assembly of the entire ring of tunnel lining segments 600, all the thrust cylinder groups 104 push on the tunnel lining segments 600, keep the cutter head 102 rotating, and the pressure maintaining system maintains the pressure in the excavation chamber and the air cushion chamber in real time. The shield machine 100 stops excavating, and the first circulation subsystem is adjusted to the shutdown mode.
