Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of test benches for shield machine hydraulic simulation training systems, specifically a test bench for shield machine hydraulic simulation training systems. Background Technique

[0002] As a comprehensive tunnel excavation device integrating multiple functions, modern advanced technologies in machinery, electricity, hydraulics, servo control, etc. are applied to shield machines.

[0003] During the actual operation of a shield machine, the direction it travels has a certain angular deviation at a certain position. The principle is that when the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder extends, it drives the connected rotating cutter head. When the computer calculates the required extension amount of each hydraulic cylinder piston rod according to the required deflection angle, it drives the cutter head to deflect to the specified angle to achieve the turning function of the shield machine.

[0004] As a professional technical basic course with extremely close connection between theory and practice, if a trainee wants to comprehensively master this course, relying solely on theoretical understanding is far from enough. Practical training needs to be gradually strengthened to enhance the practical perception of hydraulic technology and the trainee's hands-on practical ability, and finally achieve the organic integration of theory and practice.

[0005] The shield machine hydraulic test bench simulates the various functions of the shield machine hydraulic system and hydraulic components in actual production, and detects the state information and related displacement, flow rate, speed, etc. information during their actual operation, so that trainees can comprehensively master the working principle and component composition of the hydraulic system through learning.

[0006] During the comprehensive hydraulic transmission experiment teaching, the physical object of the shield machine is scaled proportionally to make a model to simulate the main hydraulic function part of the shield machine - the hydraulic cylinder propulsion system. Summary of the Invention

The second threaded seat is fixedly installed on the load-bearing ring.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the connection manner of the hydraulic propulsion unit with the outer frame and the load-bearing ring is the same as the connection manner of the load simulation unit with the outer frame and the load-bearing ring.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, both the load simulation unit and the hydraulic propulsion unit are provided in four groups.
