Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of cantilever type tunnel boring machines, and in particular relates to a vertical support and displacement mechanism and a steep slope tunnel boring machine. Background Art
[0002] At present, cantilevered roadheaders are generally suitable for tunneling in slopes between ±18°. When the slope increases or the rock hardness increases, the slope resistance of the roadheader increases, the walking resistance increases, and the roadheader lacks climbing power, which makes it difficult for the roadheader to walk, thus affecting the normal use of the roadheader. To address this problem, external auxiliary traction is generally used to overcome the resistance so that the cantilevered roadheader can walk and work normally on large slopes; however, the use of external auxiliary traction increases the process and occupies the roadway space. Summary of the invention
[0003] The invention aims to solve the problem that when a cantilever type roadheader is excavating in a tunnel between 18° and 30°, the walking resistance increases, the roadheader lacks climbing power, and the roadheader has difficulty in walking, thereby affecting the normal use of the roadheader.
[0004] The present invention provides the following technical solution: a vertical support and displacement mechanism, comprising a fixed seat, a traction arm and a vertical support beam; the fixed seat is a carrier of the vertical support and displacement mechanism, and the fixed seat is used to be installed on a tunnel boring machine;
[0005] The traction arm is a telescopic structure. The end of the first arm of the traction arm is hinged to the fixed seat through a cross connector I. The end of the last arm of the traction arm is hinged to the vertical support beam. A swing cylinder is connected between the vertical support beam and the traction arm. A bottom support cylinder assembly is provided at the bottom of the vertical support beam, and a top support cylinder assembly is provided at the top. After the bottom support cylinder assembly and the top support cylinder assembly are extended, the vertical support beam is supported between the top plate and the bottom plate of the tunnel. The traction arm uses the vertical support beam as a fulcrum to apply thrust or pull to the tunnel boring machine through the fixed seat.
[0006] A maneuvering cylinder assembly is connected between the upper and lower sides of the first branch arm of the traction arm and the fixed seat. The maneuvering cylinder assembly is hinged to the fixed seat through a cross connector II and is hinged to the first branch arm of the traction arm through a cross connector III. In the vertical direction, a first angle is formed between the maneuvering cylinder assembly and the first branch arm of the traction arm, and in the horizontal direction, a second angle is formed between the maneuvering cylinder assembly and the first branch arm of the traction arm.
[0007] Furthermore, three groups of ear plates are arranged on the fixed seat, including a main ear plate in the middle and auxiliary ear plates on the upper and lower sides; the main ear plate is hinged to the cross connector I, and the auxiliary ear plates on the upper and lower sides are hinged to the cross connector II; the distance from the hinge holes of the auxiliary ear plates on the upper and lower sides to the fixed seat is smaller than the distance from the hinge holes of the main ear plates to the fixed seat.
[0008] Furthermore, an upper ear plate and a lower ear plate are arranged on the first branch arm of the traction arm, and the upper ear plate and the lower ear plate are respectively hinged to the cross connector III. In the horizontal direction, the upper ear plate and the lower ear plate form a third angle with the maneuvering cylinder assembly.
[0009] Furthermore, the bottom support cylinder assembly includes a bottom support cylinder and a bottom anchor head; the top support cylinder assembly includes a top support cylinder and a top anchor head; the bottom support cylinder is installed at the bottom of the vertical support beam, the top support cylinder is installed at the top of the vertical support beam, and the bottom support cylinder and the top support cylinder are aligned with the vertical support beam; the bottom anchor head is installed at the end of the piston rod of the bottom support cylinder, and the top anchor head is installed at the end of the piston rod of the top support cylinder.
[0010] Furthermore, the traction arm comprises a first section arm and a second section arm, the second section arm is slidably nested in the first section arm, and a traction cylinder is connected between the first section arm and the second section arm.
[0011] A steep slope tunnel boring machine comprises a tunnel boring machine, wherein a set of vertical support and sliding mechanisms are respectively installed on the left and right sides of a body of the tunnel boring machine, a fixing seat of the vertical support and sliding mechanism is fixed to the body of the tunnel boring machine by bolts, and the vertical support and sliding mechanisms on the left and right sides of the body of the tunnel boring machine are symmetrical.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:
[0013] Through the vertical support and pushing mechanism, the climbing ability of the tunnel boring machine can be greatly improved, and the tunnel boring machine can be driven on a large slope or muddy bottom plate and can cut grooves in harder rocks, thereby solving the problem of tunnel boring machine driving and cutting grooves on large slopes within the slope range of less than 30°.
[0014] A mobilizing cylinder assembly is connected between the upper and lower sides of the first section of the traction arm and the fixed seat. The traction arm swings up and down when the mobilizing cylinder assemblies on the upper and lower sides extend and contract. The traction arm swings laterally when the mobilizing cylinder assemblies on the upper and lower sides extend and contract at the same time, ensuring that the mobilizing cylinder assembly is within the width range of the first section of the arm when the vertical support and sliding mechanism is in the folded state, reducing the lateral size of the vertical support and sliding mechanism, which is beneficial to controlling the width of the fuselage of the large-slope tunnel boring machine and improving the passability of the large-slope tunnel boring machine.
[0015] The top support cylinder assembly and the bottom support cylinder assembly are installed on the upper and lower parts of the vertical support beam respectively. The double cylinder combination design can reduce the size of the cylinder. When the tunnel boring machine is moving on a large slope, the tunnel boring machine will drive the traction arm and the vertical support beam to rotate around the axis of the vertical support beam. The anchor heads of the two components are inserted into the top and bottom plates of the tunnel, which can fix the vertical support beam. Only the traction arm rotates relative to the vertical support beam to reduce damage to the top and bottom plates. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
