Subsea tunnel disease prevention and maintenance methods include grouting, spraying, etc., and treatment equipment includes grouting equipment, grouting preparation, and spraying equipment.

[0089] Example 2

[0090] This embodiment provides a working method of the integrated submarine tunnel maintenance device described in Embodiment 1:

[0091] First, the clamp mechanism is installed at the end of the second swing arm 210, the slurry inlet end of the grouting pipe is connected to the slurry outlet of the grouting pump 4, the first slurry making mechanism 11 and the second slurry making mechanism 12 are in operation, the grouting pump 4 is in operation, the first slurry making mechanism 11 prepares cement slurry, and the second slurry making mechanism 12 prepares water glass slurry. When the first slurry making mechanism 11 and the second slurry making mechanism 12 are in operation, the weight sensor 1107 is used to control the weight of the material fed into the mixing barrel 1101, and the water output of the water tank 7 is controlled by the electric control ball valve on the water pipe, thereby realizing the automatic intelligent slurry mixing of the slurry. The cement slurry and the water glass slurry are driven by the grouting pump 4 through the three-way 4 03 enters the slurry outlet pipe 402 for mixing, and then enters the grouting pipe through the slurry outlet. First, grouting is performed on the first maintenance area in the tunnel wall which is high and inconvenient to insert the grouting pipe manually. The grouting pipe is connected to the clamping mechanism at the end of the mechanical arm 2. The mechanical arm 2 drives the grouting pipe into the grouting hole pre-opened on the tunnel wall, and grouting is performed on the soil outside the tunnel wall for reinforcement. The same method is used to perform grouting reinforcement on multiple grouting holes in the first maintenance area in turn. During the grouting reinforcement process, the grouting pressure and grouting flow are adjusted to meet the process requirements by adjusting the working parameters of the grouting pump 4 with the assistance of the flow meter and the pressure gauge.

[0092] Then, when grouting reinforcement is performed on the second maintenance area with lower stratum and tunnel wall heights, the grouting inlet end of the grouting pipe is connected to the grouting outlet of the grouting pump 4, and the grouting outlet end is directly inserted into the pre-constructed grouting hole, and then the grouting reinforcement is performed using the grouting pump 4.

[0093] In this embodiment, the specific heights of the first maintenance area with a higher height and the second maintenance area with a lower height can be set according to actual working conditions. The height of the first maintenance area is higher than that of the second maintenance area. The first maintenance area with a higher height is not convenient for manual grouting on the ground, while the second maintenance area with a lower height is convenient for manual grouting directly on the ground.

[0094] When grouting reinforcement is performed on the second maintenance area with lower stratum and tunnel wall heights, spraying operations can be performed on the maintenance area with higher heights simultaneously. Specifically, the robot arm 2 returns to its initial position, the clamping mechanism is removed, the nozzle mechanism 13 is installed at the end of the second swing arm 210, the paint inlet of the nozzle 1302 is connected to the airless spray pump through the paint pipeline, the gas inlet of the nozzle 1302 is connected to the gas tank 5 through the gas pipeline, the air compressor 10 and the airless spray pump are started, the robot arm 2 and the mobile drive mechanism drive the nozzle 1302 to move, the paint is sprayed through the nozzle 1302 to the tunnel maintenance area to form a coating, the ultraviolet irradiation lamp 1303 uses ultraviolet rays to irradiate the coating to accelerate the curing of the coating, and while spraying the coating, the sprayed paint is used to spray and repair the grouting holes that have been blocked by the slurry. After the grouting reinforcement of the maintenance area with lower tunnel wall height is completed, the robot arm 2 is used to drive the nozzle 1302 to move, and the maintenance area after grouting is completed is sprayed.

[0095] Through the clamping mechanism, the nozzle mechanism 13 and the mechanical arm 2, the coordinated operation of grouting, slurry making and spraying is realized, thereby improving the efficiency of tunnel maintenance construction.

[0096] In this embodiment, a robot arm 2 is used to drive the nozzle mechanism 13 to move and spray the maintenance area of ​​the tunnel. The spraying height, angle, and spraying area can be adjusted intelligently, realizing intelligent and precise spraying without causing personal injury to construction workers.

For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
