Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field related to sealing molding, and in particular to a combined sealing structure and a sealing installation method. Background Art

[0002] A shield machine is a tunnel boring machine that uses the shield method. The shield construction method is that the tunnel boring machine builds (lays) the "shield" (referring to the supporting segments) of the tunnel while excavating, which is different from the open construction method. Internationally, the broad shield machine can also be used in rock formations, but it is different from the open (non-shield method) tunnel boring machine. In my country, it is customary to call the tunnel boring machine used in soft soil formations a (narrow sense) shield machine, and the one used in rock formations a (narrow sense) TBM.

[0003] After massive searches, it was found that reference document 1 with Chinese patent publication number CN113290901A discloses a shield seal molding method, including step S1, initial cleaning of the mold; step S2, mold clamping and positioning; step S3, secondary cleaning of the mold; step S4, mold pouring preparation; step S5, mold preheating; step S6, pouring raw material preparation; step S7, pouring; step S8, curing and demolding; step S9, secondary continuous pouring; step S10, secondary vulcanization; step S11, polishing; step S12, quality inspection.

[0004] After massive searches, it was found that reference document 2 with Chinese patent publication number CN210118128U discloses a seal for a shield machine, which relates to the technical field of shield machines.
