[0002] Due to the complexity of geological conditions during shield construction and the shield machine's own failures and improper operation that are often encountered during construction, the shield machine is often trapped underground during subway construction, especially when encountering some soft-on-top-hard-on-bottom, bedrock strata, and water-rich sand and gravel strata. Due to the complexity of the stratum structure, the shield is unevenly stressed in the stratum structure, which can easily lead to collapse. It is also easy for the cutter to wear unevenly or the cutterhead to be locked and unable to rotate due to bedrock or pebble debris, making it more likely to be trapped. Summary of the invention

[0019] S12: Make a second attempt to get out of trouble;
[0020] S13: Get out of trouble and carry out overexcavation, and work normally.
[0021] Preferably, the specific operation of S1 is: initially determine the trapped situation of the shield tunneling machine. After personnel enter the bin for inspection, the shield body of the shield tunneling machine is closely attached to the rock surface within the range of 180° above the cutting ring, and the shield body is stuck.
[0022] Preferably, the specific operation of S2 is: the shield stabilizer supports the rock surface, the active articulated cylinder is retracted to make the front shield and the cutter head retreat; at the same time, water is injected into the soil bin to increase the jacking force.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0028] 1. Both replacement fillers and lubricating materials can reduce the friction between the pebble soil and the cutter disc. When the particle size of the slag is further reduced, the damage to the mechanical equipment caused by forced escape can be further avoided, which is safer. Through the mutual coordination of various steps, when encountering some soft upper and hard lower bedrock formations, water-rich sand and gravel formations, the existing cutter disc escape method can effectively solve the problems of low escape efficiency, poor safety and high construction cost.

[0041] S8: Through hole grouting, holes are drilled at the tunnel face of the shield machine to detect the stratum distribution and the size of the collapsed cavity, and then the inert slurry is backfilled according to the size of the collapsed hole and the hole is sealed;
[0042] S9: The slag in the shield soil bin is discharged by a screw machine;
[0043] S10: The slurry in the grouting tank enters the soil bin to complete the replacement. Several delivery pipelines located at the tail of the shield machine are moved to the soil bin of the middle shield of the shield machine and the advance grouting holes on the top.
