Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tunnel construction, and in particular to a mobile shield device and method for full-section excavation of a soft rock tunnel. Background Art

[0002] In the construction of medium and short length soft rock tunnels, in order to ensure the stability of the surrounding rock, large pipe shed advance support, small pipe advance support, grouting reinforcement, short step step excavation or CD method, CRD method, double side wall pilot method and other small section excavation + temporary support and expansion technology are adopted. The single cycle excavation section is small, it is difficult to use mechanized operation, and the temporary reinforcement workload is large, the efficiency is not high, and the safety risk is still high. For this reason, some long tunnels are now beginning to promote the highly efficient and safe fully mechanized rock tunnel boring machines (TBMs). This technology is more suitable for circular section tunnels with medium or lower rock strength. However, the economic section of traffic tunnels is horseshoe-shaped, especially many tunnels pass through soft and hard rocks, with large strength changes. The current TBM equipment has a very low excavation efficiency when encountering particularly hard rocks, which cannot meet the construction requirements and is difficult to switch in the middle. Due to the large workload of TBM equipment installation and disassembly, it is not economical for the construction of medium and short length tunnels. For medium and short length tunnels, tunnels with complex geological conditions such as soft and hard surrounding rocks, and non-circular cross-section rock tunnels, drilling and blasting construction is still more common. Researching a safe, efficient and fast drilling and blasting construction equipment and process for soft rock tunnels has always been the pursuit of the industry.

[0003] Chinese patent application document CN114876488A, published / announced on August 9, 2022, discloses a tunnel construction method and a shell-type tunnel boring machine. The method uses the cross-sectional contour line of the tunnel to be excavated as a reference, and first excavates the cross-sectional contour line part of the tunnel by excavation, and then uses manual, mechanical or blasting construction methods to excavate the remaining middle part of the tunnel in full section. The present invention first allows a shell-type tunnel boring machine to excavate a distance into the rock and soil body, and then the workers excavate in the shell, providing a safer working environment for the workers. The shell-type tunnel boring machine has over-excavation inside and outside the shell, allowing the surrounding rock to deform to a certain extent, giving full play to the self-stabilizing ability of the surrounding rock. Its characteristics are that the surrounding rock can be prevented from undergoing large deformation under the support of the shell, and the unexcavated soil in the shell is equivalent to the reserved core soil, which reduces the impact of tunnel excavation on the surrounding rock, reduces the settlement of the tunnel vault and the surrounding convergence, and reduces the impact of tunnel excavation on existing buildings on the ground. Its shortcomings are: first, the front end of the tunneling shell is covered with cutter discs. As long as one cutter disc is blocked by rock, the entire tunneling machine will not be able to work; second, the tunneling machine discharges soil through the soil transport pipes on both sides of the bottom. All the soil cut by the cutter discs needs to pass through the soil collection box and enter the soil collection pipe. Due to the complexity of the geological conditions, when stones enter the soil collection box, it will cause obstruction in the soil collection box, making the entire tunneling machine unable to work.

[0072] Step 3: Start the drilling machine 5 and drive the drill rod 9 into the unexcavated soil for 4.5-5 meters to form a grid scaffolding 10;

[0073] Step 4: Retract the drill rod 9 by 30-40 cm so that the keyway on the drill rod 9 coincides with the keyway on the sleeve 15, and then install the connecting key and fix it.

[0074] Step 5: retract the drill rod 9 and the sleeve 15 together, so that the sleeve 15 and the cutting disc 11 cooperate in transmission;

[0075] Step 6: The cantilever excavation equipment excavates the tunnel face 12 in front of the tunnel through the inner cavity of the shield device. At the same time, the drill rig 5 drives the drill rod 9 to drive the cutting disc 11 to cut the surrounding unexcavated soil and discharge the soil through the tunnel face 12. The jacking jack 4 at the back pushes the shield to follow up.

[0076] Step 7: After the shield device moves forward 30-40 cm, stop pushing the shield device, start the drilling rig pushing cylinder 16 behind the drilling rig 5 to push the drill rod 9 forward and continue to drive the pipe shed 40-50 cm deep;

[0077] Step 8: Repeat Steps 5 to 7. When the shield device moves forward in the tunnel to a distance of 6 steps for installing an arch frame or a segment, the jacking operation can be stopped, the jacking jack 4 is retracted, the arch frame or the segment 6 is installed to reinforce the tunnel, and after the ring is formed, the concrete spraying or backfill grouting construction is carried out, and the jacking jack 4 is extended to press against one side of the arch frame or the segment 6;

[0078] Step 9: Repeat Step 5 to 8 to complete the tunnel excavation construction;

[0079] When the sawtooth cutting steel plate 7 is used, the jacking jack 4 is supported on the support body pre-buried in the reaction wall or the inner wall of the tunnel, and the shield pushing device presses its front end against the tunnel face 12 of the tunnel excavation. The cantilever excavation equipment excavates the tunnel face 12 in front of the tunnel through the inner cavity of the shield. At the same time, the sawtooth cutting steel plate 7 cuts the surrounding unexcavated soil and discharges soil through the tunnel face 12. The rear jacking jack 4 pushes the shield to follow up;

[0080] When a cross-section change is encountered, a tunnel with a length of the shield structure is excavated and supported by conventional excavation methods before the cross-section changes; Steps 5 to 9 are repeated, and after all the shield devices have entered the reinforced and supported tunnel, the base 202 is retracted through the telescopic structure 19, and the lifting mast 20 is adjusted to retract the side walls of the shield device, and then Steps 5 to 9 are repeated according to the new cross-section.

[0081] Compared with conventional soft rock tunnel construction, this method can reduce the internal temporary support, realize the full-section excavation of the tunnel, facilitate large-scale mechanical construction, and improve the safety of tunnel construction. At the same time, the mobile follow-up grid scaffolding can greatly reduce the workload of hole making and pipe scaffolding compared with conventional methods. When encountering surrounding rock with particularly good stability, the shield jacking can be suspended, and it can be continued when encountering weak and broken surrounding rock. It is more convenient and flexible than shield machine construction.
