DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0018] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings: In the figure: As attached Figures 1 to 3 As shown, according to the first aspect of the present invention, a method for repairing cracks in the lining of an operating railway tunnel is provided, wherein the method for repairing cracks in the lining of an operating railway tunnel specifically comprises the following steps: Step 1: Laser surface detection: Use a laser scanner to quickly detect the tunnel surface to obtain information on the width, depth and direction of the cracks; Step 2, ultrasonic depth detection: Use ultrasonic imager to perform depth detection, obtain the depth data of the crack, and combine the information obtained by laser scanner to further accurately locate the three-dimensional spatial distribution of the crack; Step 3, crack classification: The crack characteristics of the acquired information are analyzed through the data processing system to determine the types of cracks, which include shallow cracks, deep cracks and through cracks. Shallow cracks are less than 10 mm deep, corresponding to micro-damage on the casing surface, accounting for more than 70% of the total cracks; deep cracks are greater than or equal to 10 mm and less than 50 mm deep, involving local failure of the structural layer, which is easy to cause leakage expansion; through cracks are greater than or equal to 50 mm deep, threatening the overall bearing safety of the tunnel; by introducing a machine learning model, the classification accuracy rate is increased from 75% based on manual experience to 98.5%, avoiding material adaptation errors caused by misjudgment of the type; Step 4, selection of repair materials: Select matching repair materials according to the type of cracks. For shallow cracks, permeable polymer materials with a viscosity of 200-800cP can be used to fill 0.1mm micro-cracks through capillary action. The penetration rate is 5mm / s, which is 3 times higher than that of traditional epoxy resins, and the bonding strength with the concrete interface after curing is ≥3MPa; for deep cracks, nano-reactive grouting materials are matched, which produce a volume expansion rate of 6%-8% during curing, effectively compensating for structural shrinkage and deformation, and the 28-day compressive strength reaches 45MPa, and the durability is 4 times higher than that of ordinary cement-based materials; for through cracks, 60MPa-level high-strength grouting materials can be used in combination with prestressed carbon fiber plates for mechanical reinforcement to form a rigid-flexible composite reinforcement system that can withstand a crack expansion rate of 0.2mm / year, and the repair life is extended to more than 15 years; Step 5: Intelligently fill and repair the cracks: Step 1: Use an intelligent spraying system to pre-coat a bonding enhancement layer in the crack area. The bonding enhancement layer is a polymer resin coating with a bonding strength of 1.5MPa-3MPa and a curing time of 30min-120min; Step 2: Use intelligent grouting device to automatically adjust grouting pressure and flow rate according to crack depth; Step 3: Use flexible sealing material for secondary covering; Step 6: Repair quality monitoring: Step 1: Install micro crack sensors at the repaired site to monitor crack changes in real time and upload data to the remote monitoring system; Step 2: Use ultrasonic waves to detect the filled area. If new cracks are detected, the remote monitoring system will automatically alarm and start the mechanical automatic reinforcement device for secondary repair.
[0019] Furthermore, a 3D laser radar scanning device with a scanning accuracy of 0.05mm-0.1mm is used to quickly detect the tunnel surface. The device achieves full-section coverage scanning with a measurement range of 0.5m-30m, and can complete the inspection of a single ring lining within 5 minutes. Compared with the more than 20% missed detection rate of traditional manual visual inspection, this technology accurately captures the contours of cracks with a width of ≥0.1mm through millimeter-level precision 3D coordinate data output, eliminates the problem of misjudgment of crack direction caused by naked eye observation, and provides a high-resolution surface model for subsequent repairs.
[0020] Furthermore, in step 2, a phased array ultrasonic imager with adjustable frequency of 1MHz-10MHz is configured to cross-verify the crack depth in combination with laser scanning data. This technology can accurately identify hidden cracks inside the liner through the 10mm-100mm penetration depth detection capability, reducing the depth measurement error from ±5mm of the traditional percussion method to ±0.8mm. By fusing the laser point cloud and ultrasonic imaging data, a three-dimensional spatial distribution model of the crack is constructed, achieving a crack end positioning accuracy of ±2mm, which completely solves the problem of insufficient grouting or excessive repair caused by misjudgment of depth in traditional methods.
[0021] Furthermore, in step 5, a high molecular weight elastomer with an elongation of ≥300% is used for surface sealing, which can adaptively absorb a deformation of 1.5 mm under a temperature difference of ±20°C, and reduce the secondary cracking rate of hard sealants by 95%.

The third data module generates construction parameters such as pressure, flow, material consumption, etc. according to the classification result. The control instruction transmission delay is less than 50ms to ensure the consistency of the repair process.
[0024] Furthermore, the intelligent spraying system includes: a spraying robot, which uses a six-axis robotic arm equipped with a laser positioning sensor to achieve ±0.1mm trajectory accuracy spraying on the curved lining surface, with a construction efficiency of 5m² / min; a spraying pump, with a pressure range of 0.5MPa-3MPa, and the coating thickness is adjusted by pressure feedback, with a fluctuation rate of ≤3% within the range of 0.2mm-2mm to avoid material accumulation or incomplete coverage; a permeable polymer coating, with a viscosity of 200-800cP and a gradient viscosity formula, which automatically matches the penetration rate for 0.1mm-2mm cracks, and shortens the curing time from the traditional 72 hours to 120 minutes; a 0.5MPa-3MPa spray pump is controlled by a six-axis robotic arm to form a 0.2mm-2mm thick polymer resin transition layer in the crack area, which increases the interface bonding strength between the new and old materials from the traditional 2.5MPa of manual brushing to 4.2MPa, and reduces the risk of peeling by 80%.
[0025] Furthermore, the intelligent grouting device includes: an adjustable grouting pump, which is equipped with a pressure-flow closed-loop control system and a grouting pressure range of 0.2MPa-5MPa, so that when grouting a 50mm deep crack, the terminal slurry flow rate is stabilized at 10cm / s±5%; a sensor control system, which monitors the slurry filling situation in real time to prevent material overflow or uneven filling, and can effectively reduce the occurrence rate of hollowing; a grouting material delivery system, which includes multiple independently controllable grouting pipelines to meet the repair needs of different crack types, greatly improving material utilization.

[0028] Embodiment 1
[0029] During the maintenance of an operating railway tunnel, a 3D laser radar scanning device is first used to comprehensively scan the tunnel surface to quickly detect the width, depth and direction of cracks. The laser scanner can provide high-precision scanning data of 0.05mm-0.1mm to ensure the accuracy and detail of crack information. With this data, combined with the geometry of the tunnel, the system can generate an accurate 3D spatial distribution of cracks to help targeted operations for subsequent repair work. This method can avoid the errors and time consumption caused by traditional manual measurement and improve the efficiency of repair operations.
[0030] Furthermore, a phased array ultrasonic imager is used for depth detection. The frequency range of this device is 1MHz-10MHz, and it can detect cracks up to 100mm deep. Compared with traditional crack depth detection technology, ultrasonic imagers can provide more accurate depth information, avoiding the limitations of relying solely on surface crack detection. Combined with the surface information obtained by laser scanning, the depth data can further accurately locate the crack position, thereby improving the repair accuracy.
[0031] After the data processing system aggregates the scanning and imaging data, it automatically determines the crack type through the preset crack classification model. According to the crack depth and nature, the system will classify the cracks into shallow cracks with a depth of less than 10mm, deep cracks with a depth of 10mm to 50mm, and through cracks with a depth of more than 50mm. This automatic classification step not only reduces the error of manual intervention, but also improves the classification accuracy and ensures the targeted selection of repair materials.
[0032] Different repair materials are used according to the type of cracks. For shallow cracks, epoxy resin-based penetrants are used. This is a permeable polymer material that can penetrate the crack surface and form a strong bonding layer, thereby effectively preventing moisture penetration and increasing the durability of the repair layer. For deep cracks, nano-sodium silicate grouting materials are used. This material can penetrate deep into the cracks and undergo a curing reaction to form a solid repair layer, enhance structural strength, and prevent the cracks from continuing to expand. For through cracks, high-strength cement-based grouting materials are used in combination with mechanical reinforcement devices for double repair. The mechanical reinforcement device can ensure that the slurry evenly fills the depth of the crack by precisely controlling the pressure and flow rate, and provides real-time monitoring during the repair process to prevent material overflow or uneven filling.
[0033] During the repair process, a six-axis spray robot was used for intelligent spraying to evenly apply the bonding reinforcement layer to the crack area. The working pressure of the spray pump was controlled within the range of 0.5MPa-3MPa, and the spray thickness was controlled within the range of 0.2mm-2mm to ensure uniform coverage of the material. The efficiency and precision of this operation cannot be achieved in traditional manual spraying, which greatly shortens the construction period and improves the quality of repair.
[0034] Subsequently, an intelligent grouting device was used for automated grouting. The grouting pump was able to automatically adjust the pressure and flow rate according to the depth of the cracks, so that the slurry could evenly fill the cracks and solidify. The sensor control system in this process monitored the slurry filling in real time, avoiding excessive grouting or uneven filling, and further ensuring the quality of the repair.
[0035] After the repair is completed, polyurethane sealant is used for secondary covering. This flexible sealing material has an elongation of more than 300% and can adapt to the slight deformation of the tunnel structure caused by temperature changes, effectively avoiding the subsequent expansion of cracks.
[0036] In order to ensure the quality of repair, MEMS strain sensors and micro crack sensors are installed. These sensors can monitor the changes of cracks in real time and upload the data to the remote monitoring system through wireless data transmission modules. If new cracks are detected or problems occur in the repair area, the system will automatically alarm and start the mechanical automatic reinforcement device for secondary repair.
[0037] This embodiment effectively solves the problems of incomplete repair, frequent manual intervention, and long repair cycle existing in traditional repair methods through precise crack detection, automated repair technology, and intelligent monitoring system, greatly improves the efficiency and quality of tunnel repair, and ensures the long-term stability and safety of the repair effect.
[0038] Embodiment 2
[0039] In this embodiment, first, a three-dimensional lidar scanner is used to detect tunnel cracks and obtain geometric information of the cracks, including data such as the width, depth, and orientation of the cracks. These data are used for subsequent determination of crack types and selection of repair materials. Next, a phased array ultrasonic imager is used to measure the crack depth, and the frequency range of the ultrasonic waves is 1 MHz - 10 MHz to ensure accurate detection of the crack depth. Through the data processing system, combining the data obtained from laser scanning and ultrasonic imaging, the system classifies the cracks. For smaller cracks, polyurethane sealant is used for repair, while for larger cracks, especially dynamic cracks, such as cracks affected by temperature changes, thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) is used. It has an elongation rate of over 300% and can adapt to the minute deformation of the cracks to prevent re-cracking. Using thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) as the repair material can effectively solve common problems in tunnel crack repair, such as poor sealing and low durability. TPU has excellent elasticity and wear resistance, can adapt to the minute deformation of the tunnel structure due to temperature changes, and prevent cracks from re-cracking. The construction of TPU is simple and the curing speed is fast, which can effectively shorten the repair time and improve the construction efficiency. In addition, during the repair of through cracks, a mechanical reinforcement device is combined and a high-strength cement-based grouting material is used for double repair. This cement-based grouting material can effectively fill the through cracks, enhance the stability of the repair layer, and avoid possible future crack propagation.
[0040] During the repair process, the intelligent spraying system sprays a reinforcement layer in the crack area to ensure uniform distribution and increase the adhesion and repair effect of the material. The grouting pump uses adjustable pressure and flow rate to ensure that the slurry evenly fills the cracks. Subsequently, real-time monitoring is carried out through a micro-crack sensor and a MEMS strain sensor, and the data is uploaded to the remote monitoring system through a wireless data transmission module. If it is found that the cracks change further, the system will activate the automatic reinforcement mechanism for secondary repair. This embodiment highlights the use of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU), which can adapt to the micro-deformation of the tunnel structure due to temperature changes and is particularly suitable for the repair of dynamic cracks. By combining flexible repair materials and mechanical reinforcement, this embodiment can enhance the adaptability and stability of the repair area while maintaining long-term sealing, and is particularly suitable for the repair of tunnel cracks affected by temperature changes.
[0041] Embodiment III
[0042] In this embodiment, a three-dimensional laser radar scanner is first used to detect the cracks in the tunnel to obtain geometric information of the cracks, including data such as the width, depth and direction of the cracks. These data are used for the subsequent determination of the crack type and the selection of repair materials. Next, a phased array ultrasonic imager is used to measure the crack depth to ensure accurate detection of the crack depth. The frequency range of the ultrasonic wave is 1MHz-10MHz. Through the data processing system, combined with the data obtained by laser scanning and ultrasonic imaging, the system classifies the cracks. For smaller cracks, epoxy resin grouting materials are used for repair; for larger cracks, especially dynamic cracks affected by temperature changes, silicone elastomers are selected, which have excellent weather resistance and UV resistance, can adapt to the small deformation of the tunnel caused by temperature changes, and effectively prevent the recurrence of cracks. Silicone elastomers have stronger temperature resistance and shear resistance, which effectively improves the long-term stability of the repair, especially in high temperature and long-term humid environments, and can ensure the integrity of the tunnel structure. Compared with traditional repair materials, silicone elastomers show better elasticity and adaptability in tunnel environments with large temperature changes. Through the application of this material, the common problem of crack recurrence can be effectively avoided. For the repair of through cracks, cement-based high-strength grouting materials are used for double repair. This type of material has the characteristics of high strength, good durability, and is suitable for high-pressure grouting. During the repair process, an intelligent spraying system is used to spray the reinforcement layer in the crack area to ensure good adhesion between the repair layer and the substrate, thereby increasing the repair effect of the material. The grouting pump uses adjustable pressure and flow rate to ensure that the slurry fills the cracks evenly. Subsequently, real-time monitoring is carried out through micro crack sensors and MEMS strain sensors, and data is uploaded to the remote monitoring system through a wireless data transmission module. If further changes are found in the cracks, the system will activate the automatic reinforcement mechanism for secondary repair.

These data are used for the subsequent determination of the crack type and the selection of repair materials. Next, a phased array ultrasonic imager is used to measure the crack depth to ensure accurate detection of the crack depth, and the ultrasonic frequency range is 1MHz-10MHz. Through the data processing system, combined with the data obtained by laser scanning and ultrasonic imaging, the system classifies the cracks. For smaller cracks, polyurethane resin is used for repair; for larger cracks, especially dynamic cracks affected by temperature changes, acrylic elastomer is selected, and the use of acrylic elastomer as a repair material can effectively adapt to the micro-deformation of the tunnel structure caused by temperature changes, and is particularly suitable for the repair of dynamic cracks. The chemical stability and high and low temperature resistance of the material enable it to maintain excellent repair effects in various harsh environments. Compared with traditional repair materials, acrylic elastomers can provide higher temperature adaptability, reduce repair failures caused by temperature differences, and are particularly suitable for tunnel environments with large temperature differences. For the repair of through cracks, high-strength grouting materials are used for filling to provide strong adhesion and durability. During the repair process, an intelligent spraying system is used to spray a reinforcement layer on the crack area to ensure the repair effect of the crack area and good adhesion of the material. The grouting pump automatically adjusts the grouting pressure and flow rate according to the depth of the crack to ensure that the slurry fills the crack evenly. Subsequently, real-time monitoring is carried out through micro crack sensors and MEMS strain sensors, and the data is transmitted to the remote monitoring system through a wireless data transmission module. If further changes are found in the crack, the system will start the automatic reinforcement mechanism for secondary repair.
