Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of abrasive waterjet tunnel boring machine components, and relates to an active rotary sand supply device for an abrasive waterjet tunnel boring machine. Background Technology
[0002] The statements in this section are merely background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] In recent years, the construction of underground spaces such as transportation tunnels and hydraulic tunnels has developed rapidly. Full-face tunnel boring machines (TBMs) are widely used in the construction of highway, railway, and urban subway tunnels due to their advantages such as fast construction speed, high-quality tunnel completion, and high safety. However, when TBMs encounter high-strength, highly abrasive hard rock or underground reinforced concrete obstacles, traditional mechanical tunneling faces engineering problems such as abnormal damage to the cutterhead and cutting tools, and machine jamming, resulting in low safety and slow construction speed. These problems are caused by insufficient rock-breaking ability of the mechanical cutting tools. To solve the problem of insufficient rock-breaking ability of traditional TBMs, and given the strong cutting ability of abrasive water jets, the idea of using abrasive water jets to assist the cutting of the mechanical cutting tools of TBMs has been proposed.
[0004] To achieve abrasive waterjet-assisted mechanical cutting, the abrasive waterjet cutting terminal needs to be mounted on a rotating cutter head. Since abrasive waterjet cutting primarily achieves its effect through the erosive action of high-speed abrasive particles, the abrasive supply significantly impacts the cutting performance. Current technology mainly utilizes the "negative pressure" generated by the high-speed waterjet to draw abrasive from the abrasive supply chamber through the abrasive pipeline into the mixing chamber, where the high-speed waterjet mixes with the abrasive to form the abrasive waterjet. However, this abrasive supply method is affected by the rotation of the cutterhead and the large installation radius, leading to unstable abrasive supply. Specifically, when the abrasive waterjet cutting terminal moves to the upper half of the cutterhead, the abrasive is difficult to enter the mixing chamber through negative pressure due to its own weight. Conversely, when the abrasive waterjet cutting terminal is located on the lower half of the cutterhead, excessive abrasive enters the mixing chamber due to its own weight. When the installation radius is large, the abrasive cannot be effectively absorbed through negative pressure, resulting in problems such as difficulty in abrasive supply, difficulty in quantitative measurement, and instability, leading to uneven jet cutting effect. In addition, the particle size of commonly used abrasives is not uniform, and the abrasive in the sand supply chamber may segregate due to factors such as tunneling machine vibration, which greatly inhibits the performance of the abrasive waterjet. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes an active rotary sand supply device for abrasive waterjet tunneling machines. This invention overcomes the difficulties in supplying abrasive due to the rotation of the cutterhead and the large installation radius, solves the problems of unstable abrasive flow rate, difficulty in accurately controlling abrasive flow rate, and the segregation problem that easily occurs during abrasive transportation.
[0006] According to some embodiments, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] An active rotary sand supply device for an abrasive waterjet tunneling machine includes:
[0008] A sand supply bin used to store abrasive materials;
[0009] A central tube shaft axially passes through the sand supply bin, one end of which is fixedly connected to the center of the tunneling machine cutterhead and rotates around its own axis with the rotating cutterhead.
[0010] A plurality of abrasive conveying devices are connected to the sand supply bin and distributed circumferentially around the central tube axis;
[0011] Corresponding abrasive flow rate regulating device installed on the abrasive conveying device;
[0012] An abrasive mixing device is installed on a central tube shaft located inside the sand supply chamber.
[0013] In the above technical solution, the central tube shaft provides driving force to the abrasive conveying device through the limiting cooperation between the abrasive conveying device, the central tube shaft provides driving force to the abrasive conveying device, which solves the problem of difficult power transmission of the abrasive conveying device and improves the reliability of operation.
[0014] In addition, each abrasive conveying device is equipped with an abrasive flow rate regulating device. The abrasive flow rate supplied by the abrasive conveying device to the abrasive waterjet cutting terminal is adjusted by the abrasive flow rate regulating device, so as to control the cutting performance of the abrasive waterjet by adjusting the abrasive flow rate.
[0015] As an alternative implementation, the sand supply bin includes a static sand bin, a feed inlet, an air outlet, a gear ring, and a rotating baffle. The bottom of the static sand bin is provided with a bottom plate through hole, and the central tube shaft passes through the bottom plate through hole and is slidably connected to the static sand bin.
[0016] The feed inlet is located on the static sand bin and is sealed to the pipeline of the external abrasive supply device.
[0017] The air outlet pipe is installed on the sand settling chamber, with one end extending into the sand settling chamber and the other end placed outside the sand settling chamber;
[0018] The gear ring is fixedly connected to the static sand chamber and is located on the side of the static sand chamber through which the central tube shaft passes.
[0019] The rotating partition is fixedly connected to the central tube shaft, rotates with the central tube shaft, and is slidably and sealingly connected to the static sand chamber.
[0020] Furthermore, the feed inlet and the air outlet are located on the side wall of the static sand bin.
[0021] Furthermore, the inner end of the air outlet pipe is located on the horizontal line corresponding to the maximum volume of the abrasive in the static sand chamber.
[0022] Furthermore, the rotating partition plate is provided with a plurality of partition plate through holes, which are distributed circumferentially around the center position of the rotating partition plate.
[0023] The abrasive enters the sand supply bin through the feed inlet via the pipeline of the external abrasive supply device. The air displaced by the abrasive entering the sand supply bin is discharged through the air outlet pipe. When the abrasive is continuously supplied to the point where it overflows the air outlet pipe, external abrasive cannot be added to the sand supply bin. The feed inlet and the air outlet pipe work together to ensure that the abrasive in the sand supply bin is always full.
[0024] As an alternative implementation, the abrasive conveying device includes bearings, gears, helical blades, and abrasive piping, wherein:
[0025] The bearing is installed in the through hole of the partition plate of the sand supply bin, and the outer ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole of the partition plate.
[0026] The gear teeth are configured to mesh with the gear ring of the sand supply bin, the gear shaft of the gear is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the bearing, and the gear shaft of the gear is provided with a gear shaft through hole.
[0027] One end of the spiral blade is disposed through the inner ring of the bearing and fixed to the through hole of the gear shaft, and the other end extends into the interior of the static sand chamber.
[0028] One end of the abrasive pipeline is slidably connected to the outer edge of the gear shaft through hole, and the other end is connected to the abrasive flow regulating device.
[0029] Furthermore, a spiral blade cover is provided on the outer side of the spiral blade, one end of the spiral blade cover is fixedly connected to the outer edge of the through hole of the partition on the inner side of the rotating partition, and the other end circumferentially blocks at least a portion of the spiral blade.
[0030] The rotating partition is driven by the rotational power of the cutter head through the central tube shaft, causing it to rotate around the central tube shaft. This, in turn, causes the gear on the rotating partition to revolve around the central tube shaft. The gear ring, fixed to the static sand chamber, remains stationary with the static sand chamber, creating a relative motion tendency with the rotating partition. Under the combined action of the bearing, gear ring, and gear meshing, the gear rotates, and the rotating gear drives the helical blades to rotate. Under the combined action of the helical blade cover, the abrasive is transported from the sand supply chamber to the abrasive pipeline. The internal space of the abrasive pipeline is completely filled with abrasive. Combined with the sliding connection, this ensures the normal delivery of abrasive to the abrasive pipeline while preventing the abrasive pipeline from rotating with the gear.
[0031] The internal space of the abrasive pipeline is filled with abrasive. The abrasive flow rate regulating device is installed at the output end of the abrasive pipeline, and the other end of the abrasive flow rate regulating device is close to the abrasive waterjet cutting terminal. It can precisely adjust the abrasive flow rate and is not affected by the installation radius or the rotation of the cutter head.
[0032] The abrasive flow rate can be completely and precisely controlled by the combination of the abrasive conveying device and the abrasive flow rate regulating device.
[0033] As an alternative implementation, the central tube shaft is coaxial with the sand supply bin.
[0034] As an alternative implementation, there are multiple abrasive conveying devices, with one end of each abrasive conveying device circumferentially arranged on the sand supply bin and the other end circumferentially distributed on the cutter head.
[0035] As an alternative implementation, the central tube shaft has a cavity in the middle to provide space for the high-pressure water transmission device / pipeline, high-pressure gas transmission device / pipeline, and / or control device / line required for the tunneling machine to carry the abrasive water jet system.
[0036] As an alternative implementation, the abrasive flow rate regulating device can be controlled manually or automatically.
[0037] As an alternative implementation, the abrasive stirring device includes a stirring mechanism and a connecting member. The stirring mechanism is detachably mounted on the central tube shaft via the connecting member, and the stirring mechanism includes a plurality of stirring blades / stirring teeth.
[0038] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0039] 1. This invention actively supplies abrasive to the abrasive waterjet cutting terminal through an abrasive conveying device, which solves the problem that the abrasive waterjet cutting terminal on the cutter head has insufficient abrasive absorption capacity due to its large installation radius, resulting in little or no abrasive in the abrasive waterjet.
[0040] 2. This invention achieves effective regulation of abrasive flow rate by combining an abrasive flow rate regulating device and an abrasive conveying device, thereby achieving precise control of the cutting performance of the abrasive waterjet.
[0041] 3. The present invention uses the rotational power of the cutter head to drive the abrasive conveying device and the abrasive stirring device through the central tube shaft, which avoids the need for an external power source, avoids excessive structural complexity, and improves the overall reliability of the device.

[0071] By limiting the movement of the abrasive conveying device 4, the central tube shaft 3, and the sand supply bin 1, the central tube shaft 3 is driven by the rotational power of the cutter head to operate the abrasive conveying device 4. This avoids the problem of power transmission difficulties caused by providing power to the abrasive conveying device 4 from an external power source, and improves reliability.
[0072] The abrasive flow rate is adjusted by the abrasive flow rate regulating device 5, which supplies the abrasive to the abrasive waterjet cutting terminal 6 via the abrasive conveying device 4, thereby controlling the cutting performance of the abrasive waterjet by adjusting the abrasive flow rate.

Specifically, the static sand bin 11 does not rotate with the central tube shaft 3, and the bottom of the static sand bin 11 is provided with a bottom plate through hole 111. The central tube shaft 3 passes through the bottom plate through hole 111 and is connected to the static sand bin 11 through a sliding seal 112.
[0074] The feed inlet 12 is located on the static sand bin 11 and is used to add abrasive from the outside into the sand supply bin 1;
[0075] Gear ring 13 is fixedly connected to the static sand chamber 11. The connection method can be bolt connection, welding, etc.
[0076] Rotating partition 14 is fixedly connected to the central tube shaft 3, rotates with the central tube shaft 3, and is sealed to the static sand bin 11 through sliding seal 142; the rotating partition 14 is provided with partition through hole 141.
[0077] The air outlet pipe 15 is installed on the static sand chamber 11. One end of the air outlet pipe extends into the interior of the static sand chamber, and the inner end of the air outlet pipe is located on the horizontal line corresponding to the maximum volume of abrasive in the static sand chamber 11; the other end is placed outside the static sand chamber.
[0078] In this embodiment, the sand supply bin 1 is cylindrical in shape. It has a feed inlet 12 and an air outlet 15 on its side wall.
[0079] Abrasive is fed into the sand supply chamber 1 through the feed inlet 12 via the pipeline of the external abrasive supply device. The air displaced by the abrasive entering the sand supply chamber 1 is discharged through the air outlet 15. When the abrasive is continuously supplied to the point that it overflows the air outlet 15, external abrasive cannot be added to the sand supply chamber 1. The feed inlet 12 and the air outlet 15 work together to ensure that the abrasive in the sand supply chamber is always full.
[0080] In some embodiments of the present invention, the static sand chamber 11 may be connected to an external frame that is in a stationary state.
[0081] In some embodiments of the present invention, the gear ring 13 may be replaced by a structure such as an internal gear or an external gear.
[0082] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the abrasive conveying device 4 includes: bearing 41, gear 42, spiral blade cover 43, spiral blade 44, and abrasive pipeline 45. Each component will be explained in detail below.
[0083] Bearing 41: Bearing 41 is installed on the outer edge of the through hole 141 of the partition plate, and the outer ring of bearing 41 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole 141 of the partition plate.
[0084] Gear 42: The teeth of gear 42 are configured to mesh with gear ring 13; the gear shaft of gear 42 is configured to be fixedly connected to the inner ring of bearing 41, and the gear shaft of gear 42 is provided with gear shaft through hole 421.
[0085] Spiral blade cover 43: The spiral blade cover 43 is disposed in the through hole 141 of the partition on the inner side of the rotating partition 14 (the inner side of the sand supply chamber 1) and is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the bearing 41.

[0088] like Figure 2-3 As shown, the cutter head drives the rotating partition 14 to rotate around the central tube shaft 3 via the central tube shaft 3, thereby causing the gear 42 on the rotating partition 14 to revolve around the central tube shaft 3. The gear ring 13, fixed to the static sand chamber 11, remains stationary with the static sand chamber 11, and has a relative motion tendency with the rotating partition 14, which is rotating. Under the combined action of the gear ring 13 and the gear 42 meshing, the gear 42 rotates. The rotating gear 42 drives the helical blade 44 to rotate, and under the combined action of the helical blade cover 43, the abrasive is conveyed outward from the sand supply chamber 1. Through the sliding joint 422, the abrasive pipeline 45 is prevented from rotating with the gear 42 while ensuring that the abrasive is normally conveyed to the abrasive pipeline 45.
[0089] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the spiral blade cover 43 is in the shape of a trumpet with a gradually increasing diameter.
[0090] In some embodiments of the present invention, the number of abrasive conveying devices 4 can be adjusted according to actual needs; the type, size, gear ratio and other parameters of the gear ring 13 and gear 42 can be adjusted according to actual needs.

The abrasive mixing device 2 can be used to mix mixed abrasives (multiple types, multiple particle sizes, etc.) located inside the sand supply bin 1; the abrasive mixing device 2 can also be used to mix a single abrasive. The abrasive mixing device 2 can be quickly installed and disassembled according to the user's actual needs. The mixing teeth 21 can also be replaced with blades or other mechanisms with mixing functions, and the connection method can be changed to welding or other methods.
[0093] Of course, in other embodiments, the stirring teeth can be replaced with other stirring blades.
[0094] In some embodiments of the present invention, the abrasive water jet system is mounted on a tunneling machine, which requires solving the problem of transmitting high-pressure water, high-pressure gas, etc. The central tube shaft 3 can also provide transmission space for high-pressure water transmission devices / pipelines, high-pressure gas transmission devices / pipelines, control devices / lines, etc.
