[0002] Tunnel ventilation, as a crucial aspect of tunnel construction safety and quality assurance, is essential not only for providing fresh air to construction workers but also for the comprehensive optimization and control of the tunnel's internal environment. Insufficient ventilation is a common problem in the construction of long tunnels and gas tunnels. This can typically be addressed by increasing the number of fans, increasing their power, and increasing the number of ventilation ducts to improve the working environment. However, existing single-fan ventilation systems cannot meet the design requirement of 24-hour uninterrupted ventilation, necessitating the addition of backup fans. However, backup fans cannot be quickly activated when the main fan fails. Furthermore, conventional three-stage ventilation bags are prone to damage and have a short service life during the switching between main and backup fans.

[0030] Example 1
[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the present invention proposes a tunnel main and backup ventilation device for rapid switching, including a three-way pipe body 1 and a branch pipe 11 fixed to one end of the three-way pipe body 1. A sealing mechanism 2 is provided on one side of the outer wall of both the three-way pipe body 1 and the branch pipe 11. The sealing mechanism 2 includes a sealing frame 21 fixed to one side of the outer wall of the three-way pipe body 1 and the branch pipe 11. A hydraulic pushing mechanism is provided on one side of the top of the sealing frame 21. Multiple rotating rods 210 pass through the inner wall of the sealing frame 21. A sealing plate 211 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of each of the multiple rotating rods 210. Multiple horizontal plates 22 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sealing frame 21. The multiple horizontal plates 22 are all located on one side of the sealing plate 211.
[0032] With the above configuration, the sealing frame 21 supports the horizontal plate 22 inside the device. The hydraulic cylinder 23 drives the hydraulic rod 25 to slide up and down, which in turn drives the push frame 26 and rack 27 to slide up and down, thereby driving the multiple drive gears 29 meshing with the rack 27 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the rotating rod 210 and the sealing plate 211 to rotate, so that the sealing plate 211 can be sealed with the horizontal plate 22 to prevent backflow.
[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, a secondary sealing mechanism 3 is provided on the other side of the top of the sealing frame 21. The secondary sealing mechanism 3 includes a hydraulic oil tank 32 fixed to the top of the sealing frame 21. A pushing sealing mechanism is provided on one side of the hydraulic oil tank 32.
[0034] With the above configuration, by setting up hydraulic cylinder 31, the device can drive push rod 33 to slide up and down. Push rod 33 drives connecting buckle 34 and sliding sealing layer 35 to slide up and down within sliding plate 36, thereby achieving a secondary sealing effect on the inside of the three-way pipe 1, making the inside of the pipe tightly sealed, preventing backflow that could damage the fan or waste wind power, and making it more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.
[0035] In this embodiment, the connection between the three-way pipe 1 and the branch pipe 11 allows for rapid switching between the main and standby fans, directing airflow directly through the three-way pipe 1. This significantly shortens the switching time and improves the reliability and stability of the ventilation system. The sealing frame 21 supports the internal horizontal plate 22. The hydraulic cylinder 23 drives the hydraulic rod 25 to slide up and down, which in turn drives the push frame 26 and rack 27 to slide up and down, thereby rotating the multiple drive gears 29 meshing with the rack 27. This, in turn, rotates the rotating rod. Rotation of 210 and sealing plate 211 allows sealing plate 211 to be sealed with horizontal plate 22, preventing backflow. By setting hydraulic cylinder 31, the device can drive push rod 33 to slide up and down. Push rod 33 drives connecting buckle 34 and sliding sealing layer 35 to slide up and down within sliding plate 36, thereby achieving a secondary sealing effect on the inside of the three-way pipe 1, making the inside of the pipe tightly sealed, preventing backflow that could damage the fan or waste wind power, and making it more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.

[0039] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, one end of a plurality of rotating rods 210 is fixedly connected to a drive gear 29, a rack 27 meshes with one side of the outer wall of the plurality of drive gears 29, a transmission plate 212 is fixedly connected to one end of the outer wall of the plurality of rotating rods 210 away from the drive gear 29, a limit rod 213 is fixedly connected to one side of the transmission plate 212 away from the rotating rod 210, and the limit rods 213 are all slidably connected in the limit groove 214 opened on one side of the outer wall of the sealing frame 21;
[0040] With the above configuration, by pushing the frame 26 and the rack 27 to slide up and down, the multiple drive gears 29 meshing with the rack 27 are driven to rotate, thereby driving the rotating rod 210 and the sealing plate 211 to rotate, so that the sealing plate 211 can be closed with the horizontal plate 22.
[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottom end of the tee pipe 1 is fixedly connected to multiple supporting angle steels 12, and the bottom end of each of the multiple supporting angle steels 12 is fixedly connected to an I-beam 13. Two connecting steel frames 14 are fixedly connected between two I-beams 13.
[0042] With the above-mentioned setup, the entire device is supported by the supporting angle steel 12, and the device is more stably supported by the I-beam 13 and the connecting steel frame 14.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a connecting mechanism 4 is provided on one side of the sealing frame 21.

Multiple connecting bolts 44 pass through the outer wall of the flange ring 43. A wind bag connecting ring 45 is fixedly connected to the end of the outer wall of the connecting pipe 41 away from the flange ring 43. Multiple wire connecting rings 46 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the wind bag connecting ring 45.
[0046] With the above-mentioned settings, the rubber gasket 42 and flange ring 43 make the connection between the device and the outlet of the external main fan more airtight, preventing air leakage. The air bag connecting ring 45 and wire connecting ring 46 make the connection between the device and the air bag tighter.
[0047] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the pushing sealing mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder 31 fixed to one side of the hydraulic oil tank 32. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 31 is fixedly connected to a pushing rod 33 via a sliding rod. Multiple connecting buckles 34 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pushing rod 33. A sliding sealing layer 35 is fixedly connected to one side of each of the multiple connecting buckles 34.
