TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of initial support of tunnel construction, and particularly relates to a tunnel steel arch and a steel mesh installation method. BACKGROUND
[0002] When the tunnel is excavated, the vault is excavated first, then the side wall, and finally the inverted arch. The steel mesh and the steel arch need to be installed in each area during installation, and the steel arches on the vault, the side wall and the inverted arch are connected together. In the prior art, during the construction of the vault, the side wall and the inverted arch, the steel mesh is first placed between the two steel arches, then the steel arch is installed, and finally the steel mesh is welded between the two steel arches. Since the steel mesh is manufactured in advance, it cannot be guaranteed that the distance between the two steel arches is an integer multiple of the steel mesh, that is, it cannot be guaranteed that one or more pieces of steel mesh can be placed between the two steel arches. Therefore, it is not possible to determine the number of steel meshes placed between the two steel arches. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the construction, more steel meshes are usually placed, which is easy to cause waste of steel meshes. In order to facilitate the connection of the steel arch, the steel arch joint of the previous construction (i.e. during the construction of the vault and the side wall) is excavated. During the excavation process, the steel arch joint is deformed, which is easy to cause the difficulty of splicing of the two steel arches. SUMMARY
[0003] The present application provides a tunnel steel arch and a steel mesh installation method. The two adjacent steel meshes can be spliced together by the steel mesh fast splicing assembly, thereby reducing the waste of steel mesh sheets. The connecting joint of the steel arch can be protected by the protection device, thereby facilitating the connection between the two steel arches.

[0035] The present application is further described below by way of examples and with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0036] As Figures 1-14 shown, a tunnel steel arch and steel mesh installation method mainly includes the following steps:
[0037] First step: Excavation; After excavating the tunnel according to the construction sequence, anchor rods are punched, and then the tunnel wall is initially sprayed with concrete. After the concrete solidifies to the expected hardness, the steel mesh in pieces is placed in sequence according to the construction direction. The construction sequence is to excavate the vault first, then excavate the side wall after the initial support of the vault is completed, then excavate the inverted arch after the initial support of the side wall is completed, and finally complete the initial support of the inverted arch. When spraying concrete, the sprayed concrete thickness is between 30-40mm, which is used to prevent the sand and stone of the excavated tunnel from falling during subsequent construction.
[0038] When the excavated place is the tunnel side wall or the inverted arch, the steel arch joint of the previous construction needs to be excavated out at the time of excavation, and the protection device is then removed, and then the subsequent process is performed. When spraying concrete, the arch joint of the previous construction needs to be avoided.
[0039] Second step: install the steel mesh; through the steel mesh fast lap assembly, the adjacent two steel meshes are lapped together, and meanwhile the steel meshes are connected to the anchor rod. When lapping, the overlapping part of the adjacent two steel meshes is between one time and two times of the distance of each grid of the steel mesh. The connection of the steel mesh and the anchor rod adopts the prior art.
[0040] The steel mesh fast positioning lap assembly mainly consists of the first connecting piece 1 installed at the lap position of the two steel meshes with the cross joint and the second connecting piece 2 installed at the lap position of the two steel meshes. During installation, the first connecting piece is clamped at the first connecting piece installation position A of the overlapping of the two steel meshes for preliminary positioning, and the clamping direction is not limited to horizontal clamping. After the preliminary positioning is completed, the second connecting piece is clamped at the second connecting piece installation position B and in a different direction from the first connecting piece for further positioning of the two steel meshes.
[0041] In order to clamp the connecting piece and the two steel meshes, the first connecting piece 1 is a long strip-shaped steel sheet, two round holes matched with the steel bars are arranged side by side on the first connecting piece 1, and openings extending to the corresponding side round holes are arranged at the front and rear ends of the first connecting piece 1. Similarly, the second connecting piece 2 is a long strip-shaped steel sheet, two round holes matched with the steel bars are arranged side by side on the second connecting piece 2, and an opening communicating with the corresponding side round hole is arranged at any one of the front and rear ends of the second connecting piece 2, and the opening communicates the two round holes on the second connecting piece 2.
[0042] During the installation of the first connecting piece 1, one end of the first connecting piece is clamped on the steel bar at the corresponding position of one of the steel meshes, and then the steel bar on the other steel mesh is clamped correspondingly, at this time, the two steel meshes are preliminarily positioned, and the length of the two steel meshes after lapping is also determined. The end far away from the opening of the second connecting piece 2 is preferably arc-shaped for easy taking. After the installation of the first connecting piece is completed, the arc-shaped end of the second connecting piece 2 is taken, and the second connecting piece 2 is clamped on the parallel steel bars of the two steel meshes in a direction different from the first connecting piece 1, so that the two steel meshes are further positioned, and the relative displacement between the two steel meshes is prevented.
[0043] The opening width of the first connecting piece 1 and the second connecting piece 2 is smaller than the radius of the connected round hole, so that the connecting piece will not easily slip off after being clamped on the steel mesh, and the connection is stable.
[0044] Preferably, the first connecting piece 1 is a long strip-shaped rectangular steel sheet.
[0045] In order to facilitate the smooth clamping of the steel bars into the corresponding round holes of the connecting piece, the opening at the two ends of the first connecting piece 1 is chamfered; the end of the opening of the second connecting piece 2 is chamfered; and the opening connecting the two round holes of the second connecting piece 2 is chamfered at the round hole close to the end of the opening.
[0046] Third step: install steel arch, install steel arch on the side of the steel mesh away from the tunnel wall, at the same time put the protection device at the lower end joint of the steel arch, and backfill sandstone to bury the protection device, and then spray concrete. After the installation of the steel arch, the steel mesh overlapping the steel arch can be spot welded on the steel arch to increase the overall connectivity, and longitudinal reinforcement extending along the tunnel is welded separately between the two steel frames.
[0047] The protection device is mainly composed of a top plate 3, a side plate 4 and a bottom plate 5. The top plate 3 and the side plate 4, and the side plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 are both hinged, and a rotatable shaft can be used.
[0048] The top plate 3, the side plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 can be enclosed to form a U-shaped structure that fits the arch joint. The end of the top plate 3 away from the joint is provided with a rectangular notch 3a that cooperates with the arch. In use, the arch is clamped into the rectangular notch of the top plate 3, and the side plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 are sequentially fitted with the arch joint, and sand is filled outside the formed U-shaped structure protection device, and concrete is sprayed to isolate the concrete.
[0049] The rectangular notch of the top plate 3 cooperates with the arch to abut tightly, and the middle of the side plate 4 is provided with a rib plate 6 for abutting with the side surface of the arch joint to limit the position and enhance the strength of the overall structure.
[0050] The end of the bottom plate 5 away from the joint is provided with a pull ring 5a. The pull ring 5a can be a hole provided on the bottom plate 5, or a circular ring installed on the bottom surface of the bottom plate 5. When the arch joint is exposed by blasting after the excavation of the lower part of the tunnel is completed, the protection device can be quickly disassembled through the pull ring 5a.
[0051] In order to make the device fit the arch, the top plate 3, the side plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 are rectangular steel plates, and the length and width of the top plate 3 and the bottom plate 5 match the length and width of the arch joint, and the height of the side plate 4 is higher than the thickness of the arch joint. After the protection is installed, the space for connecting the arch joint with the next joint can be left.
[0052] According to the needs, the left and right sides of the side plate 4 can be respectively hinged with a first wing plate 7 and a second wing plate 8 that block the corresponding side surfaces of the joint, to protect the side surfaces of the joint.
[0053] Preferably, the rib plate 6 is vertically arranged in the middle of the side plate 4 and both upper and lower ends are provided with inclined surfaces, facilitating the covering of the top plate 3 and the side plate 4. At the same time, the abutting surface of the rib plate 6 is provided with a circular arc protrusion for reducing friction, avoiding causing additional damage to the abutting surface of the joint, and also facilitating the quick removal of the protection device.
