Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of shield tunnel construction equipment, and in particular to a shield segment grouting hole blocking device and method. [Background Technology]
[0002] Shield tunneling has been widely used in modern tunnel construction due to its advantages such as high automation and rapid construction speed. Shield segments, the primary support structure of shield tunnels, are assembled in sections and then filled with gravel or grouting behind the segments to form a permanent support structure. Grouting holes, as reserved holes, must be sealed after filling to prevent leakage. In actual projects, grouting hole sealing is divided into temporary and permanent sealing to meet the requirements of different construction sequences and working conditions.
[0003] In current shield construction, grouting hole plugging is a process prone to defects. The purpose of plugging is to prevent water leakage during long-term service. However, due to the generally long length of tunnels, the number of grouting holes that need to be plugged is large, and the tunnel's service life is long, the cost of plugging the grouting holes throughout the tunnel and the probability of plugging defects increase significantly. Plugging defects can cause leakage in the tunnel, which not only reduces the stability of the support structure but also affects the long-term service life of the tunnel. Therefore, grouting hole plugging and its effectiveness verification have become a key process in current shield construction.

[0048] The present invention also provides a shield segment grouting hole blocking method, wherein blocking is achieved by the shield segment grouting hole blocking device. The shield segment grouting hole blocking method specifically comprises:
[0049] Permanent sealing: The expansion end, washer, expansion rubber ring and tensioning nut are installed on the tensioning bolt in sequence. When the tensioning nut is rotated, the pre-cracked cut on the expansion end gradually cracks and expands outward on one side of the expansion end. The expansion end is fixed to the rear side of the grouting hole wall of the segment. Under the action of axial tension, the expansion rubber ring expands radially and gradually adheres to the grouting hole wall to achieve anti-seepage. After the predetermined tension is reached, the counter-rotating fixing nut is used to fix it to achieve permanent sealing.
[0050] Temporary sealing: The expansion end, gasket, expansion rubber ring, tightening nut and counter-rotating fixing nut are installed on the tightening bolt in sequence without installing the expansion end to achieve temporary sealing.
[0051] Example 1:
[0052] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a shield segment grouting hole sealing device. In this device, a tensioning bolt 1 has a thread 2 at one end and a protrusion 3 at the other end. An expansion end 4 has an inner groove 5 and a pre-split notch 6. An expansion rubber ring 8 has anti-slip bumps 9 on its outer side. The expansion end 4, washer 7, expansion rubber ring 8, tensioning nut 10, and counter-rotating fixing nut 11 are installed on the tensioning bolt 1 as needed.
[0053] Among them, the tensioning bolt 1 has a thread 2 at one end and a convex head 3 at the other end. It is made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel. The diameter of the tensioning bolt 1 is 5mm-10mm and the length is 30cm-40cm. The diameter of the convex head 3 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the grouting hole and the thickness is 10-20mm, which can also be determined according to the actual situation on site. The surface is smooth and the angle is reasonable to facilitate the opening of the expansion end 4.
[0054] The expansion end 4 is provided with an inner groove 5 and a pre-crack cut 6, and is made of stainless steel; the outer diameter of the expansion end 4 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the grouting hole, the inner diameter is slightly larger than the diameter of the tightening bolt 1, and the length is 10-20 cm; the diameter of the inner groove 5 is about 5-15 mm smaller than the outer diameter of the expansion end 4, and the depth is 2-3 cm smaller than the length of the expansion end 4; the number of pre-crack cuts 6 is 8-16, and the depth is slightly smaller than the depth of the inner groove 5; the quantity of each structural dimension can also be determined according to the actual situation on site.
[0055] The outside of the expansion rubber ring 8 is provided with anti-skid protrusions 9, which are made of rubber. The inner diameter of the expansion rubber ring 8 is slightly larger than the diameter of the tension bolt 1, and the outer diameter is slightly smaller than the diameter of the grouting hole. The density of the anti-skid protrusions 9 is not less than 4 / cm 2 , its size and quantity can also be determined by the actual situation on site.
[0056] The expansion tip 4, washer 7, expansion rubber ring 8, and tensioning nut 10 are installed on the tensioning bolt 1. As the tensioning nut 10 rotates, the pre-cracked notch 6 on the expansion tip 4 causes one side of the expansion tip 4 to gradually crack and expand outward, securing the device to the rear side of the grouting hole wall of the segment. Under the action of axial tension, the expansion rubber ring 8 expands radially, gradually clinging to the grouting hole wall to achieve anti-seepage. After reaching the predetermined tension, the reverse-rotation fixing nut 11 is used to secure the device, achieving permanent sealing. Different combinations can achieve different effects. For example, if the expansion tip 4 is not installed, a temporary seal can be achieved.
[0057] use Figure 4 In the process shown in the figure, during construction, first determine whether the construction condition is permanent or temporary blocking, and then follow Figure 1 or Figure 2 Assemble the plugging device and prepare the corresponding construction tools. After grouting or filling is completed, press the device into the grouting hole and tighten the nut until the device is completely fixed in the grouting hole and the grouting hole stops leaking. Then screw in the counter-rotating fixing nut to secure it. Finally, check the stability. The dimensions of each device should match the dimensions of the grouting hole to ensure the plugging effect.
[0058] The specific construction process of the present invention is as follows:
[0059] 1. Construction preparation: After filling or grouting is completed, determine the size of each device according to the grouting hole size requirements, and prepare tools such as drill bits, wrenches, hammers, etc.
[0060] 2. Determine the type of closure: temporary or permanent.
[0061] 3 Assemble the plugging device: According to the working conditions, Figure 1 or Figure 2 Assemble the plugging device;
[0062] 4. Seal the grouting hole: remove the grouting pipe and grouting head, press in the sealing device, tighten the nut until the device is completely fixed in the grouting hole and the grouting hole no longer leaks, then screw in the reverse rotation fixing nut to secure it;
[0063] 5. Conduct stability check;
[0064] 6. Removal of temporary plugging: When the temporary plugging needs to be removed, remove the reverse-rotation fixing nut and the tightening nut, and pull out the plugging device.
[0065] When permanent sealing is required, the present invention installs the expansion end, the washer, the expansion rubber ring, and the tightening nut on the tightening bolt respectively; as the tightening nut rotates, the pre-cracked cut on the expansion end causes one side of the expansion end to gradually crack and expand outward, fixing the device to the rear side of the grouting hole wall of the pipe segment; the expansion rubber ring expands radially under the action of axial tension, gradually clinging to the grouting hole wall to achieve anti-seepage; after reaching the predetermined tension, it is fixed with a reverse-rotation fixing nut. When temporary sealing is required, only the expansion end needs to be removed. The device has a reasonable design, a simple structure, a low cost, and is easy to construct. It can maximize the sealing effect of the grouting hole and avoid leakage of the grouting hole. It can also be used for temporary and permanent sealing at the same time, and has broad application prospects.
