Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of small shield machines, and in particular to a main bearing shaft mechanism of a small shield machine. Background Art

[0002] A small shield machine is a mechanical equipment specially designed for underground tunnel construction, usually used for tunnel excavation with a diameter between 1 meter and 4 meters. Its main function is to cut the soil through a rotating cutterhead and transport the excavated soil to the ground through a conveying system. At the same time, the tunnel lining is installed during the excavation process to ensure the stability of the tunnel. Small shield machines are widely used in urban infrastructure construction, such as underground pipelines, drainage systems, and subways. Due to their small size, small shield machines can flexibly cope with complex underground environments during construction, and are particularly suitable for construction in densely populated urban areas. They are usually equipped with advanced navigation systems that can achieve precise excavation control and reduce the impact on surrounding buildings and the ground. In addition, the construction speed of small shield machines is fast, which can effectively shorten the project cycle and reduce construction costs. With the acceleration of urbanization, small shield machines are increasingly used in urban underground projects and have become an important tool for modern tunnel construction. Compared with large shield machines, small shield machines are small in size and more flexible, but their construction capacity is relatively weak. They are suitable for short-distance and small-diameter tunnel construction. Small shield machines have advantages in cost, transportation, and construction speed, and are ideal for urban underground engineering construction.

[0003] The main bearing shaft of a small shield machine is an important structural component of the shield machine, mainly used to support and transfer the main load of the shield machine. It is usually located at the front of the shield machine, connecting the cutterhead and the machine body, and is responsible for transmitting the force generated by the cutterhead when cutting in the soil to other parts of the shield machine. The design of the main bearing shaft needs to take into account strength, rigidity and wear resistance to ensure stable operation in complex underground environments.

[0004] The head of the shield machine, also called the front end or cutterhead of the shield machine, is generally configured as a cylindrical head to be suitable for most tunnel excavation projects. However, when construction is carried out close to the surface, the cylindrical head of the shield machine often needs to exert a large cutting force during the cutting process, causing the soil to be subjected to a large impact instantly. This instantaneous cutting can cause severe disturbance of the surrounding soil, increase the risk of soil instability, and have a greater impact on the ground. Summary of the invention

This instantaneous cutting can cause severe disturbance of the surrounding soil, increase the risk of soil instability, and have a greater impact on the ground.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0009] As a further solution of the present invention: the longitudinal section of the main shaft is arranged in a polygonal shape.

[0010] As a further solution of the present invention: the driving assembly includes a motor, and the output end of the motor is coaxially fixedly connected to the main shaft.

[0015] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0016] 1.
