Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of tunnel construction technology, specifically relating to a ventilation and dust removal system for a large-section tunnel cantilever tunnel boring machine. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous development of mechanized tunneling equipment in China, cantilever tunneling machines have gradually become an important piece of equipment in mechanized tunnel construction. Cantilever tunneling machines offer advantages such as flexibility, high reliability, and high excavation efficiency. They can remove soft rock around the tunnel, transport tunnel excavation waste, and move the equipment itself. Compared to drill-and-blast tunneling, cantilever tunneling machines have significant advantages and will be even more advantageous in future tunnel construction. However, the milling head of a cantilever tunneling machine generates a large amount of dust during the rock breaking process. Due to the long single-cycle excavation time, relatively small tunnel space, and poor air circulation, the construction dust cannot be quickly removed, resulting in a poor working environment inside the tunnel. This seriously affects the secondary lining and invert arch construction, impacts the overall construction efficiency of the tunnel during tunneling machine operation, worsens the working environment for construction personnel, and increases potential hazards to tunnel construction and operational safety.
[0003] Existing tunnel dust control facilities mainly improve the tunnel environment by installing automatic spraying devices inside the tunnel. However, the construction water will soften the surrounding rock inside the tunnel, affecting its stability. At the same time, it will also worsen the working conditions for construction workers inside the tunnel. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a ventilation and dust removal system for large-section tunnel cantilever tunnel boring machines. It uses ventilation to expel polluted air from the tunnel, replacing sprinkler systems, ensuring dryness inside the tunnel, avoiding the softening effect of construction water on the surrounding rock, achieving rapid removal of dust from the tunnel, ensuring a good construction environment inside the tunnel, and thus improving construction quality and efficiency.
