DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0040] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings are used to further explain the present application, the schematic embodiments of the present application and the explanation are only used to explain the present application, and do not limit the present application.
[0041] Example 1
[0042] As Figure 1As shown, the high water content shield muck crushing device provided in the embodiment includes an outer shell 10, a driving device 20, a crushing mechanism 30, an inner wall 40, a muck identification system 50, a dehydration mechanism 60, a discharge port 70, a separation filter screen 80, a water outlet 90, a drainage plate 100, and a moving device 110.
[0043] The outer shell 10 is provided with a feed inlet at the top for input of the soil material. The crushing mechanism 30 is installed in the outer shell 10. The two ends of each roller shaft 31 in the crushing mechanism 30 are connected to the front and rear outer walls of the outer shell 10. The two ends of the roller shaft 31 extend out of the outer shell and are connected to the driving device 32, which provides power for the roller shaft. The roller shaft 31 includes two roller shafts. A hob 33 is arranged on each roller shaft 31. The hobs 33 are arranged in the axial direction on the roller shafts. The distance between the hobs 33 is less than 1 mm, which ensures that the hobs 33 can fully contact and crush the input muck. The dehydration mechanism 60 is arranged below the crushing mechanism 30. The muck after crushing is dehydrated under the action of the rotation of the hobs in the dehydration mechanism 60. The separation filter screen 80 on the lower surface of the dehydration mechanism 60 screens the muck after crushing. Although the high water content shield muck is easy to adhere, the soil material will be completely crushed due to the intensive cutting of the hobs 33. Then, the soil material is dehydrated by the dehydration mechanism and filtered by the separation filter screen 80, so that the muck meeting the requirements is always output at the discharge port 70. In this process, the muck does not stick or block the discharge port. The soil material enters the feed inlet through the end of the muck identification system 50. The muck identification system 50 includes identification equipment 51, a feed conveyor belt 52, and a support 53. The identification equipment 51 is installed above the feed conveyor belt 52 by the support 53. The identification equipment 51 includes a laser scanning sensor, an infrared sensor, and a thermal imager. The driving device 32 is controlled by the muck identification system 50. The laser scanner in the muck identification system can identify the particle size of the muck. The infrared sensor and the thermal imager can identify the water content, and then control the driving device 32 to adjust the speed of the roller shaft 31.
[0044] Further, the high water content shield muck crushing device is further provided with side walls 40 and 41 on the side of the dehydration mechanism 60. The muck after crushing will not fly out of the dehydration mechanism 60 due to the blocking of the side walls 40 and 41.
[0045] Further, the hobs 61 in the dehydration mechanism 60 are spirally distributed on the inner shaft in the axial direction. The high-speed rotation of the hobs 61 drives the muck containing water to move forward.
[0046] Further, the lower surface of the dewatering mechanism 60 is a separation filter screen 80, and the pore size of the separation filter screen 80 meets the requirement of allowing only water to pass through; the water and soil mixture is extruded by the dewatering mechanism to remove water, and the water is dropped onto the drainage plate 100 through the separation filter screen 80. The filtered soil is transported to the end of the dewatering mechanism 60, discharged through the discharge port 70, and collected by an external collecting device.
[0047] Further, the surface of the separation filter screen 80 is coated with a nano coating to prevent high-moisture soil from sticking to the filter screen.
[0048] Further, the hob 33 in the crushing mechanism 30 is arranged axially on the roller shaft 31, and the distance between the hobs 33 is less than 1 mm, which ensures that the hobs 33 can fully contact and crush the input soil; the hobs 33 of the crushing mechanism 30 are distributed transversely along the rolling device, and the hobs 33 are staggered between the two roller shafts 31.
[0049] Further, the hobs on the dewatering mechanism 60 are distributed axially in a spiral manner, and the distance between the hobs and the separation filter screen 80 below the hobs is 1 cm.
[0050] Further, the discharge port is arranged on the right side of the dewatering mechanism 60, and an external collecting device can be connected to collect the crushed soil.
[0051] Further, the drainage plate 100 arranged below the separation filter screen 80 is arranged obliquely, and the separated water is discharged through the water outlet after passing through the drainage plate 100.
[0052] In some possible embodiments, the bottom of the shell 10 is provided with a moving device 110, which adopts a roller structure to facilitate the movement of the entire device;
[0053] Further, the soil identification system 50 in this embodiment is a device specially designed for real-time identification and analysis of soil produced in shield tunnel construction. The soil and rock mixture excavated by the shield machine (i.e., shield soil) has complex components, and different distributions and properties will directly affect the subsequent soil treatment, crushing, and recycling process. By efficiently and accurately judging the physical and chemical properties of the shield soil, the soil identification system can provide data support for subsequent soil treatment, ensuring that the working parameters of the crusher can be optimized and adjusted according to different types of soil, thereby achieving environmental protection and effective utilization of resources.
[0054] Among them, in order to constitute the soil identification system, the following devices are arranged in the soil identification system 51:
[0055] (1) Laser scanning sensor: used to detect the particle shape and size of shield muck. Laser scanning technology can provide high-precision three-dimensional point cloud data, analyze the particle distribution characteristics of muck, and determine the fineness and particle shape of soil. The advantage of laser scanning sensor is its non-contact measurement, which can quickly obtain a wide range of three-dimensional information, suitable for dynamic monitoring.
[0056] (2) Infrared sensor and thermal imager:
[0057] Infrared sensor is used to detect the temperature of muck, and thermal imager can provide more detailed temperature distribution map. This is helpful to determine the water content of shield muck, as different water content of soil will have different temperature performance.
[0058] (3) Data processing unit
[0059] Data acquisition module: real-time collection and integration of data from various sensors, and preliminary preprocessing.
[0060] Classification algorithm: using YOLO (You Only Look Once) series algorithm to analyze the processed data to determine the type and nature of muck.
[0061] (4) Control system
[0062] Real-time control module: after receiving the output results from the data processing unit, automatically calculates the working parameters of the crusher (such as speed, feed rate, etc.) suitable for the current muck properties.
[0063] Human-computer interaction interface: provides a user-friendly interface to display recognition results, device status and related parameters, making it easy for operators to monitor and manually adjust in real time
[0064] The implementation process of recognition and control is as follows:
[0065] This device is used to detect the type of muck. Before starting deep learning, 3000 videos of each type of muck are prepared as training data (the more comprehensive the features contained in the training data, the better the training effect and the higher the recognition accuracy). The acquisition environment of training data is consistent with the actual working environment.
[0066] Data acquisition: when the crusher is running, each sensor starts to work simultaneously, real-time acquisition of related data of muck, and acquisition of geometric and thermal properties of muck.
[0067] Data processing:
[0068] Data integration: the data acquisition module integrates data from various sensors to form a unified data set.
[0069] Signal Processing: Signal processing algorithms are applied to denoise and filter the data, ensuring its accuracy.
[0070] Feature Extraction: Key features are extracted from the processed data, providing a data foundation for subsequent classification algorithms.
[0071] Category Recognition
[0072] Using classification algorithms, the processed data is analyzed to identify the type and characteristics of the slag.
[0073] Model Invocation: Based on the current data characteristics, the trained classification model is invoked.
[0074] Classification Judgment: The category of the slag is output, such as soil, mixed slag, rock-like slag, etc., and its physical properties are provided.
[0075] Result Output: The recognition result is fed back to the human-machine interface through the control system for the operator to view.
[0076] Control Instruction Generation
[0077] Parameter Calculation: The control system calculates the optimal crushing parameters based on the identified type and properties of the slag.
[0078] The control system generates corresponding control instructions and sends them to the drive unit of the crusher.
[0079] Crushing Mechanism Adjustment
[0080] The crushing mechanism automatically adjusts its working parameters according to the received control instructions. The control instructions are transmitted to the motor controller (single-chip microcomputer), and the servo motor of the crushing mechanism is adjusted to ensure the optimal efficiency of the crusher.
[0081] How to determine the crushing speed based on the comprehensive analysis of the collected particle size and moisture content; how to establish a quantitative relationship between the three
