[0023] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides a large deformation strong support device for tunnel excavation, comprising two vertical and spaced apart supports 1, a plurality of spacing adjustment parts are fixedly connected between the top ends of the two supports 1, the plurality of spacing adjustment parts are evenly arranged, a top wall support mechanism is arranged between any two adjacent spacing adjustment parts, side walls of the two supports 1 that are away from each other are respectively fixedly connected with lifting parts, a translation part is fixedly connected to the top end of the lifting part, and a side wall support mechanism is fixedly connected between the two translation parts.

[0025] The overall framework of the support device is formed by the two brackets 1. The spacing adjustment portion arranged between the tops of the two brackets 1 can adjust the distance between the two brackets 1 according to the size of the tunnel, thereby improving the application range of the support device. The top wall support mechanism arranged on the spacing adjustment portion can support the top wall of the tunnel, and the side wall support mechanism can support the side wall of the tunnel. The lifting portion and the translation portion can act simultaneously to adjust the position of the side wall support mechanism, thereby ensuring that the side wall support mechanism can support the deformation of different positions of the side wall.

[0027] After the device is installed in the tunnel, the position of the side wall support plate 24 is adjusted by the lifting part and the translation part according to the position where the tunnel side wall is deformed. When the side wall support plate 24 is adjusted to the position corresponding to the deformed side wall, the telescopic part controls the side wall support plate 24 to extend and support the deformed position, thereby providing support for the deformed position.

A positioning pin 36 is provided at the connecting end of the sleeve 35 and the fixing rod 34, and the top wall support mechanism is fixedly connected to the fixing rod 34.

[0033] The distance between the two brackets 1 is adjusted according to the size of the tunnel to be supported. When adjusting, the positioning pin 36 is first pulled out, and then the fixing rod 34 is slid out of the sleeve 35 by a certain length.
