Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of final joint construction of submarine tunnels, and in particular to a steel shell protective cover device for a final joint end. Background Art

[0002] The final joint of the Dalian Bay Subsea Tunnel is constructed using the jacking method. The outer sleeve and jacking segment are prefabricated under dry construction conditions. The jacking segment is pushed into the inner part of the outer sleeve. After the installation of the last section of the immersed tube is completed, the jacking segment is pushed out from the outer sleeve and connected to the last section of the immersed tube.

[0003] The final immersed tube section consists of a double GINA section with GINA waterstops installed at both ends. The final joint section is formed by the end steel shell. Since the final joint is exposed to seawater for a long period of time after prefabrication, the entire end steel shell is directly exposed to the seawater. This can lead to construction vessels accidentally entering the section and damaging the end steel shell's flatness, potentially damaging the end steel shell and preventing it from docking with the final tube section. Therefore, the end steel shell of the final joint needs to be protected. Summary of the Invention

All the first horizontal supporting steel pipes 2 are arranged on the outer wall surface of the steel shell 9 at the end of the jacking segment to form an inverted U-shaped structure, and all the second horizontal supporting steel pipes 3 are arranged at the lower end of the inner wall surface of the steel shell 9 at the end of the jacking segment. The side of the protective cover body 1 facing the jacking segment is provided with a plurality of horizontal connecting steel pipes 4 arranged in two layers, and a pre-embedded component 5 is provided corresponding to each horizontal connecting steel pipe 4 on the concrete wall 10 of the jacking segment, and the horizontal connecting steel pipe 4 is connected to the corresponding pre-embedded component 5.

[0034] A plurality of inclined connecting steel pipes 6 are provided on the side of the protective cover body 1 facing the jacking section. The inclined connecting steel pipes 6 correspond one-to-one to the horizontal connecting steel pipes 4 in the lower layer and are connected to the corresponding embedded components 5 .

[0035] The embedded component 5 includes an anchor plate 501, and a plurality of anchor bars 502 are provided on one side of the anchor plate 501. The anchor plate 501 and the anchor bars 502 are embedded in the jacking segment concrete wall 10. An embedded steel pipe 503 is welded on the other side of the anchor plate 501. The embedded steel pipe 503 passes through the outside of the jacking segment concrete wall 10, and the horizontal connecting steel pipe 4 and the inclined connecting steel pipe 6 are connected and fixed to the embedded steel pipe 503.

[0036] An auxiliary horizontal connecting steel pipe 7 is provided on the top of the inverted U-shaped structure of the first horizontal supporting steel pipe 2 .

[0037] The protective cover body 1 includes an upper horizontal steel tube bundle 101 and a lower horizontal steel tube bundle 102 arranged above and below. A left vertical steel tube bundle 103 is provided between the left sides of the upper horizontal steel tube bundle 101 and the lower horizontal steel tube bundle 102, and a right vertical steel tube bundle 104 is provided between the right sides of the upper horizontal steel tube bundle 101 and the lower horizontal steel tube bundle 102.

[0038] The protective cover body 1 further includes two X-shaped steel pipe diagonal bracing assemblies 107 arranged on the left and right. The X-shaped steel pipe diagonal bracing assemblies 107 are connected between the upper horizontal steel pipe bundle 101 and the lower horizontal steel pipe bundle 102 .

[0039] The protective cover body 1 also includes diagonal bracing steel pipes 108 arranged between the upper horizontal steel pipe bundle 101 and the left vertical steel pipe bundle 103, between the upper horizontal steel pipe bundle 101 and the right vertical steel pipe bundle 104, between the lower horizontal steel pipe bundle 102 and the left vertical steel pipe bundle 103, and between the lower horizontal steel pipe bundle 102 and the right vertical steel pipe bundle 104.

[0040] An adjustable base 8 is provided between the bottoms of the left vertical steel pipe bundle 103 , the right vertical steel pipe bundle 104 , and the middle vertical steel pipe 105 and the transverse support beam 11 .

[0041] The present invention utilizes horizontal connecting steel pipe 4, inclined connecting steel pipe 6 and embedded component 5 to connect the jacking segment with the protective cover body 1, and the protective cover body 1 forms a protective effect on the jacking segment end steel shell 9 of the jacking segment to prevent it from being impacted and damaged by external forces.

[0042] The steel shell 9 at the end of the jacking segment is located on the outermost circle of the pipe segment. The jacking segment is 34m wide and 10m high. There is a steel section with a width of 65cm on the outermost circle, which is the steel shell 9 at the end of the jacking segment. The present invention mainly prevents the steel shell 9 at the end of the jacking segment from being worn by the anchor cables of foreign construction ships during immersion in seawater for 9-10 months. The area of ​​the steel shell 9 at the end of the jacking segment that needs to be protected is large, and it needs to be protected by materials with higher strength. The selected materials need to be of higher strength. According to the needs, a socket-type scaffolding is selected to make the protection device of the steel shell 9 at the end of the jacking segment. The scaffolding is a steel round tube with a smooth surface. The scaffolding is firmly erected and can be reinforced to prevent collapse. The protective cover body 1 is installed from top to bottom, using a disc-type scaffolding for overlap installation. The installation is carried out from top to bottom. An X-shaped steel pipe diagonal brace assembly 107 is overlapped in the middle to prevent tilting. A first horizontal support steel pipe 2 and a second horizontal support steel pipe 3 are added around the jacking segment end steel shell 9 to ensure that the jacking segment end steel shell 9 is completely secure and tightly connected. After the steel pipe overlap is completed, check the pre-tightening to ensure that the steel pipe connection is tight and there is no looseness.

[0043] The present invention has a simple installation method and a firm device, and can more effectively protect the steel shell 9 at the end of the jacking segment.

[0044] The present invention is described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various improvements are made using the method concept and technical solution of the present invention, or they are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
