Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of conveying equipment, and in particular relates to a fast tunnel excavation and conveying system. Background Art

[0002] Anchor miners are important tunnel excavation machines, and belt conveyors are essential bulk material conveying equipment. Modern coal mining and tunnel excavation, among other tunnel construction sites, often require a rapid tunneling and conveying system consisting of these two machines. However, existing tunneling and conveying systems utilize belt conveyors that can only travel in a straight line and are unable to meet the requirements for turning and conveying materials in tunneling connecting tunnels. While shuttle cars can be used to achieve turning and transferring materials, their conveying efficiency is relatively low, making them difficult to adapt to the rapid and continuous tunneling of connecting tunnels. Furthermore, existing rapid tunneling and conveying systems utilize a ground-sliding truss structure, where the belt conveyor drags and slides across the tunnel floor. This not only occupies a large amount of ground space but also places high demands on the flatness and hardness of the tunnel floor. Soft or broken ground can hinder the movement of the belt conveyor, while hardening the tunnel floor is extremely difficult, severely impacting the tunneling efficiency and overall project progress of the tunneling and conveying system. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In response to the above situation, the present invention provides a rapid tunnel excavation and transportation system, which solves the problem that the existing tunnel excavation and transportation system cannot realize the turning transportation of connecting tunnel excavation materials and the transfer belt conveyor cannot quickly follow the machine during the excavation process.

[0004] In order to achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A rapid tunnel excavation and conveying system includes a digging and anchoring machine, a turnable transfer conveying mechanism, a slidable track transfer conveying mechanism and a retractable belt conveying mechanism. The turnable transfer conveying mechanism is composed of multiple self-propelled belt conveyors connected end to end, and the self-propelled belt conveyors are rotatably hinged to each other through connecting pieces; further, the self-propelled belt conveyor is a self-propelled belt transfer vehicle, including a main conveying device and a turning travel device arranged below the belt conveyor for driving the belt conveyor to turn or move in a straight line.

[0006] According to the material conveying direction, the first self-propelled belt conveyor of the turnable transfer conveying mechanism is overlapped under the discharge end of the anchor miner, and the rear end of the last self-propelled belt conveyor of the turnable transfer conveying mechanism is connected to a bridge-type transfer belt conveyor that can swing left and right.

[0007] Furthermore, the bridge-type transfer belt conveyor is also connected to the turnable transfer conveyor mechanism via a connector. The connector includes a bearing seat, with a tapered roller bearing disposed on the upper and lower portions of each bearing seat. A rotation pin is coaxially and vertically extending between the two tapered roller bearings. The front end of the bridge-type transfer belt conveyor is fixedly connected to the rotation pin at the rear end of the turnable transfer conveyor mechanism, and the rear end of the bridge-type transfer belt conveyor is connected to the slidable track transfer mechanism via a connecting frame.

[0008] The sliding rail transfer mechanism includes a suspension belt conveyor, a suspension rail and multiple sets of load-bearing pulleys. The suspension rail is fixedly laid under the tunnel roof. Furthermore, the suspension rail is an I-beam single rail anchored and laid on the tunnel roof, that is, a monorail railway. As the tunnel is continuously excavated, the suspension rails behind the suspension belt conveyor need to be gradually dismantled, and the dismantled suspension rails need to be laid forward. Each load-bearing pulley can be rotatably matched on the suspension rail. The suspension belt conveyor is suspended in the tunnel through multiple sets of connecting frames correspondingly connected under each load-bearing pulley. The front end of the suspension belt conveyor is overlapped under the bridge transfer belt conveyor to receive the material from the bridge transfer belt conveyor. The entire suspension belt conveyor is hung in the tunnel and connected to the bridge transfer belt conveyor. It can follow the self-propelled belt conveyor to move forward and backward and slide a certain distance to reduce the extension frequency of the retractable belt conveyor mechanism.

[0009] The retractable belt conveyor mechanism includes a retractable tail, a middle roller group, a head assembly, and a conveyor belt. The retractable tail includes a tail frame, a tail roller mounted on the tail frame, and a retractable traction device. Furthermore, the retractable traction device is a crawler-type walking mechanism. The retractable tail is overlapped below the suspended belt conveyor. The middle roller group includes multiple groups of suspended upper and lower rollers. Each upper roller is suspended below the roadway roof at intervals via suspension members, and each lower roller is correspondingly suspended below the upper rollers via hanging members. The head assembly includes a head frame, a head roller mounted on the head frame, a belt drive device, a belt storage bin located in front of the head frame, and a belt tensioning device. The conveyor belt is sequentially threaded around the belt storage bin, the head roller, the middle roller group, and the tail roller. Furthermore, the belt tensioning device is a dual-cylinder deviation-adjusting tensioning mechanism capable of tightening and loosening the belt and preventing deviation.

[0010] The present invention also includes other components that enable it to be used normally, which are all conventional means in the field. In addition, devices or components not limited in the present invention, such as: anchor miner, self-propelled belt conveyor, crawler walking mechanism, and the head roller, tail roller, belt storage bin, belt tensioning device, retractable tail of the retractable belt conveyor, etc., all adopt the existing technology in the field.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0012] The present invention provides a rapid tunnel excavation and transportation system, which adopts a turnable transfer method of overlapping multiple groups of self-propelled belt conveyors, solving the problem that the existing tunneling and transportation system cannot realize the turning transportation of connecting tunnel excavation materials; adopting a track transfer belt conveyor with a top plate laying track solves the problem that the transfer belt conveyor cannot realize rapid following and moving of the machine during the excavation of the anchor mining machine, and the problem that the transfer belt conveyor has difficulty in moving due to soft and broken ground, thereby reducing the number of times the belt conveyor is extended; at the same time, adopting a hanging roller structure solves the problems that the laying of the belt conveyor occupies a large ground space, has high requirements for the flatness and hardness of the tunnel bottom plate, and is inconvenient for hardening the ground, thereby improving the excavation efficiency and ensuring the progress of the project.
