Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of tunnel construction, and in particular to a method for starting building a warehouse with an earth pressure balance shield without end head reinforcement in a soft upper and hard lower stratum. Background Art

[0002] During the initial construction of the earth pressure balance shield, when the cutterhead breaks through the retaining structure (8) at the tunnel entrance, the end stratum is exposed, and its structure, acting load and stress change. At this time, the amount of slag in the soil bin is limited, and the solid earth pressure has not yet been fully established. For strata with poor self-stability, especially when the end strata are soft on the top and hard on the bottom, it is impossible to maintain the water and soil balance of the tunnel face by relying solely on air support, and sliding damage is very likely to occur.

[0003] The patent number is 202110294958.6, and a public specification published on June 11, 2021 discloses a device and method for preventing water-rich strata from gushing out and improving the efficiency of shield tunneling. The patent belongs to the field of tunnel shield construction technology and can solve the problems of ground collapse, shield machine flooding, tunnel collapse, and casualties that are prone to occur when the shield machine is crossing water-rich strata. The tunneling device includes a belt conveyor, a spiral conveyor located above the belt conveyor, and a sump and side discharge sump located at the bottom of the belt conveyor. The tunneling method includes: draining water from the soil bin, establishing solid earth pressure, improving soil bin slag, advancing the shield machine, preventing gushing and rapid pressure relief, and starting the drainage and slag removal system. The present invention can effectively reduce the pressure in the soil bin and prevent gushing from occurring. At the same time, it can effectively prevent the accumulation of slag and muddy water at the bottom of the shield machine and fall to the outside of the belt conveyor. There is no need for manual regular cleaning, thereby improving the efficiency of shield tunneling.

[0004] In order to avoid the risk of end stratum collapse, the end stratum is usually reinforced before the shield starts. The more commonly used methods include high-pressure rotary jetting, deep mixing, horizontal deep hole grouting, freezing and precipitation stabilization stratum methods. Not only are the construction costs high and the cycle long, but they may also be limited by factors such as underground pipelines or technological levels, resulting in the problem of no end reinforcement conditions or poor reinforcement effects. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a method for initially building a bunker without end head reinforcement of an earth pressure balance shield machine in soft upper and hard lower strata, which can eliminate the deformation space of the initial excavation heading facing the bunker.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a method for starting and building a warehouse without end head reinforcement in an earth pressure balance shield in a soft upper and hard lower stratum, the steps are as follows:

[0007] S1: The starting end of the shield machine is in soft upper and hard lower strata. When the shield machine is selected and designed, the cutterhead is equipped with a roller cutter;

[0008] S2: Install a short sleeve in the well;

[0009] S3: Short sleeve wire tail brush to apply hand-applied shield tail grease;

[0010] S4: The shield machine stops when the remaining 20 to 30 cm of the tunnel enclosure structure remains;

[0011] S5: During advancement, short sleeve grease and mud effect injection are carried out simultaneously;

[0012] S6: After the short sleeve grease cavity and soil bin are filled, the shield machine continues to excavate with a full bin state.

[0013] In S2, a short sleeve is installed in the well, the bottom block is installed first, and a plain concrete base is poured at the bottom and a grouting pipe and a grease injection pipe are pre-buried, and then the left, right and top blocks are installed in sequence, followed by welding the bottom block and two steel wire tail brushes at the connection between the blocks, and finally the rubber curtain and the folding plate are installed, and the inner support is removed.

[0014] In S4, the shield machine advances and uses a roller cutter to directly cut the tunnel portal enclosure structure, and stops when there are 20 to 30 cm left.

[0015] In S5, a shield tail grease pump is used to inject pumpable shield tail grease through the short sleeve grease injection hole. At the same time, a mud effect pump is used to inject mud effect through the short sleeve grouting hole to fill the soil bin and establish solid soil pressure.

[0016] In S6, after the short sleeve grease cavity and the soil bin are filled with the injected medium, the shield machine continues to advance with a full bin, completely breaks through the tunnel door enclosure structure and cuts into the original stratum at the end.

[0017] The mud effect is a mixture of liquid A and liquid B, wherein the ratio of liquid A is mud effect powder: water = 300kg: 885L, and liquid B is water glass with a Baume degree of 40°Bé, and the ratio of liquid A: liquid B = 20:1 (volume ratio).

[0018] A reinforced bunker head is used in a method for reinforcing a bunker without an end head in an earth pressure balance shield with soft upper and hard lower strata. The method comprises a short sleeve, which is divided into four adjacent blocks. The blocks form a cylinder. The blocks are provided with reserved holes, which are divided into grease injection holes and grouting holes arranged in front and rear rings.

[0019] The blocks are divided into a top block, a left block, a right block and a bottom block. The blocks are connected by flanges, and rubber sealing pads are arranged at the connection points of the blocks.

[0020] Steel wire tail brushes are welded on the top block, the left block and the right block. The steel wire tail brushes are inclined, and inner supports are arranged on the inner sides of the blocks.

[0021] An inner lining wall is arranged on the enclosure structure, a tunnel door steel ring is arranged inside the inner lining wall, the blocks are connected to the tunnel door steel ring by bolts, and a rubber sealing pad is arranged at the connection.

[0022] The technical effect of the present invention is as follows: a short sleeve is designed by referring to the principle of shield tail sealing and synchronous grouting, and is installed on the steel ring of the tunnel portal through bolt connection. The shield machine allows the cutter head to pass through the short sleeve by assembling negative ring segments. When the cutter head is about to completely break through the tunnel portal retaining structure, the machine is stopped, and shield tail grease and mud-breaking effect are respectively injected through the grease injection hole and grouting hole reserved in the short sleeve. The shield tail grease, wire tail brush, rubber curtain and folding pressure plate form multiple sealing defense lines. The mud-breaking effect flows into the soil bin through the gap of the shield body under the action of grouting pressure, fills the soil bin space, and then maintains a full bin state to continue to completely break through the tunnel portal retaining structure. When the cutter head cuts into the original stratum at the end, the soil bin pressure is real soil pressure, thereby achieving the purpose of building the bin in advance and eliminating the space for deformation of the soil bin facing the heading at the beginning of excavation.
