[0018] A multi-degree-of-freedom wet spraying mechanical arm for a tunnel trolley relates to the field of tunnel construction equipment and is mainly used to solve the problems of insufficient degrees of freedom, difficult adjustment of the spraying angle, and high rebound rate of the wet spraying mechanical arm in the prior art. The composition structure and working principle of the wet spraying mechanical arm are specifically described below.

[0019] Refer to the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 The multi-degree-of-freedom wet spraying mechanical arm for the tunnel trolley is mainly composed of a slide rail 1, a slide seat 2, a telescopic boom 3, a boom angle adjustment cylinder 4, a first hydraulic rotary table 5, a telescopic small arm 6, a small arm angle adjustment cylinder 7, a second hydraulic rotary table 8, a turning mechanism 9, and a nozzle 10.

[0020] The slide rail 1 is arranged on the tunnel trolley and is arranged along the travel direction (X-axis direction) of the trolley. The slide seat 2 is installed on the slide rail 1 and can move along the slide rail 1. A driving device is arranged between the slide rail 1 and the slide seat 2. The length of the slide rail 1 is the same as the length of the trolley. When the slide seat 2 is at the starting position, the entire wet spraying robot arm is strip-shaped, and the shortest length of the wet spraying robot arm is roughly the same as the length of the trolley, and does not occupy the working space.

[0021] The slide seat 2 can move along the slide rail 1, so that the wet spraying robot arm has a degree of freedom to move forward and backward along the X-axis direction.

[0022] The telescopic boom 3 is hinged on the slide 2, and the boom angle adjustment cylinder 4 is hinged between the slide 2 and the telescopic boom 3. The function of the boom angle adjustment cylinder 4 is to adjust the rotation angle of the telescopic boom 3 in the horizontal plane (XY plane) so that the telescopic boom 3 has a degree of freedom to rotate in the XY plane.

[0023] The telescopic boom 3 has at least two hydraulic telescopic arms, so that the telescopic boom 3 has a telescopic degree of freedom in the length direction.

[0024] The first hydraulic rotary table 5 is installed at the telescopic end of the telescopic boom 3. The rotary axis of the first hydraulic rotary table 5 coincides with the axis of the telescopic boom 3. The telescopic arm 6 is hinged at the rotating end of the first hydraulic rotary table 5, so that the telescopic arm 6 has a coaxial degree of freedom relative to the telescopic boom 3 and can rotate 360°.

[0025] The telescopic arm 6 has at least two hydraulic telescopic arms, so that the telescopic arm 6 has a telescopic degree of freedom in the length direction.

[0026] The arm angle adjustment cylinder 7 is hinged between the first hydraulic rotary table 5 and the telescopic arm 6. The function of the arm angle adjustment cylinder 7 is to adjust the rotation angle of the telescopic arm 6 so that the telescopic arm 6 has a degree of freedom to rotate within a plane (the plane where the telescopic arm 6 and the telescopic boom 3 are located).

[0027] The second hydraulic rotary disk 8 is installed at the telescopic end of the telescopic arm 6, the rotation axis of the second hydraulic rotary disk 8 intersects or is vertically arranged with the axis of the telescopic arm 6, and the flipping mechanism 9 is installed at the rotating end of the second hydraulic rotary disk 8, so that the flipping mechanism 9 has a degree of freedom to rotate 360° with the second hydraulic rotary disk 8 as the rotation axis.

[0028] See attached Figure 3 The flip mechanism 9 is mainly composed of a frame 91, a hydraulic motor 92, an eccentric disc 93, a universal joint 94 and a flip frame 95. The frame 91 is installed at the rotating end of the second hydraulic rotary plate 8, the hydraulic motor 92 and the universal joint 94 are installed on the frame 91, the eccentric disc 93 is installed on the output shaft of the hydraulic motor 92, one end of the flip frame 95 is hinged to the eccentric disc 93, and the other end is hinged to the universal joint 94, and the nozzle 10 is installed on the flip frame 95. Relative to the rotation axis of the output shaft of the hydraulic motor 92, the tilting rotation angle of the flip frame 95 is 5-10°. Since the flip frame 95 can make an eccentric tilt rotation with a trajectory of a cone around the rotation axis of the hydraulic motor 92, the nozzle 10 has a degree of freedom to make an eccentric tilt rotation around the rotation axis of the hydraulic motor 92.

[0029] See attached Figure 4. The nozzle 10 is a component for spraying concrete into the tunnel. It is located at the end of the movement of the wet spraying robot arm. The movement of any of the above components will cause the nozzle 10 to move in space. Therefore, it can be said that the nozzle 10 has the above eight degrees of freedom, which are sufficient to improve the flexibility and adaptability of the wet spraying robot arm. Among them, the slide 2, the telescopic boom 3, and the telescopic arm 6 are mainly used to adjust the position of the nozzle 10 in the X direction. The boom angle adjustment cylinder 4, the arm angle adjustment cylinder 7, and the first hydraulic rotary disk 5 are mainly used to adjust the position of the nozzle 10 in the YZ plane so that the nozzle 10 is close to the tunnel arch surface. Since the telescopic boom 3 and the telescopic arm 6 have a large length, a small turning angle can cause a large displacement of the nozzle 10. Therefore, the boom angle adjustment cylinder 4, the arm angle adjustment cylinder 7, and the first hydraulic rotary disk 5 are mainly used for coarse adjustment of the position of the nozzle 10. The second hydraulic rotary disk 8 and the flip mechanism 9 are mainly used to fine-tune the posture of the nozzle 10 so that the spraying angle of the nozzle 10 remains constant to reduce the rebound rate of the concrete.

[0030] It is worth noting that the contents not described in detail in the above embodiments are prior art. It is also worth noting that for those skilled in the art, any addition, subtraction, replacement and improvement made under the structure and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
