Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of diaphragm wall construction equipment, and more particularly to a TPD construction method that uses a sickle-shaped hook cutter to quickly remove rock. Background Technology

[0002] In the construction of diaphragm walls, the construction method for composite flexible cutoff walls of dams is called the Trenchcutting Plastic Pile-mixing Deep Wall method. This method is based on the TRD (TrenchCutting Re-mixing Deep Wall Method) and incorporates polymer cutoff boards, hence the abbreviation TPD (TPD method).

[0003] The TPD (Through-Diameter Partition) construction machine, a core piece of equipment for diaphragm wall construction, is specifically designed for high-precision and high-efficiency diaphragm wall construction. This equipment mainly consists of four parts: a chassis system, a frame, a gantry system, and a cutter assembly. The chassis system provides overall support and mobility, typically equipped with tracks or wheels to adapt to complex terrain. The frame, mounted on the chassis system, serves as the main framework of the equipment, bearing the load of the gantry system and the cutter assembly. The gantry system, fixed to the frame, guides the vertical lifting and lowering movement of the cutter assembly, ensuring the accuracy of trenching operations. The cutter assembly, guided by the gantry system, cuts and trenches the diaphragm wall; its movement stability directly determines the construction quality.

[0004] However, in construction on hard strata (such as those containing large granite or concrete blocks), traditional chainsaw cutters face significant technical bottlenecks: when encountering hard rocks or blocks with a diameter exceeding 1.5 times the cutter length, conventional cutters, due to insufficient structural strength or limited gripping ability, struggle to effectively remove the rocks from the cutting groove. Rocks remaining in the groove continuously impact the cutter, causing deformation, breakage, or even damage to the cutter head. In severe cases, construction must be interrupted, and auxiliary equipment (such as cranes or crushers) must be called in for processing, taking up to 10 hours or more, significantly impacting construction efficiency and increasing costs.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a method that can quickly and effectively remove large volumes of rock during TPD construction. This method should have the ability to monitor cutting resistance in real time, efficiently grab and remove rocks, so as to improve construction efficiency, reduce equipment wear and tear, and ensure construction safety. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, the present invention aims to provide a TPD construction method that uses a sickle-shaped hook cutter to quickly remove rocks.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0012] Controlled propulsion and gripping: The lateral hydraulic cylinder moves forward slowly at a propulsion speed proportional to the real-time resistance, while the chainsaw-type cutter box rotates, using the slots of the sickle-shaped hook to grip the rock and pull it out of the cutting groove by movement.

[0013] Preferably, the upper surfaces of the middle and outer cutting teeth at the bottom of the bracket are both constructed as arc-shaped surfaces.

[0014] Preferably, the length of the middle blade tooth is longer than the length of the outer blade tooth, so that its front end is both higher than and extends beyond the front end of the outer blade tooth; the curvature of the middle blade tooth is greater than that of the outer blade tooth, so as to enhance the gripping ability of loose stones.

[0015] Preferably, the chain plate has through holes, through which the fastening components pass to secure it to the knife chain box.

[0016] Preferably, through holes are provided on the chain plate between the middle cutting tooth and the outer cutting teeth on both sides, and the through holes on both sides of the middle cutting tooth are arranged in a trapezoidal shape.

[0017] Preferably, the method further includes: determining the size of the stone based on the threshold range into which the monitored cutting resistance falls, and selecting a sickle-shaped hook knife of appropriate size.

[0018] Preferably, the retraction distance is calculated using the formula: the length of the intermediate cutter tooth × (1.2 to 2.0).

[0019] Preferably, the determination of the set threshold includes: dynamically adjusting the threshold range according to the soil layer type, with the trigger threshold for hard rock strata being 1.5 times the normal resistance and for soft soil strata being 1.2 times.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By using a sickle-shaped hook blade, large stones can be effectively removed from the cutting groove. Its special front-sharp, rear-wide structure and groove design give it excellent gripping ability, effectively handling hard stones with a diameter exceeding 1.5 times the blade length; it avoids damage to the blade caused by continuous stone impact, preventing blade tooth deformation, breakage, and blade box damage, thus extending equipment lifespan; it eliminates the need to interrupt construction and call for auxiliary equipment, significantly improving construction efficiency compared to traditional methods that require more than 10 hours of processing time; it reduces additional costs caused by equipment damage and construction interruptions, improving project economic benefits. Compared with existing technologies, this invention, through real-time monitoring of cutting resistance and the use of a specially designed sickle-shaped hook blade, achieves rapid and efficient removal of large stones in hard strata, solving the technical difficulties faced by traditional chainsaw-type blades in such construction environments.

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0025] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "clockwise," and "counterclockwise," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0026] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless explicitly defined otherwise.

[0027] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0028] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0029] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, this application proposes a sickle-shaped hook knife, including a chain plate 1 for fixing to a chainsaw unit 9. A central cutting tooth 3 and two outer cutting teeth 2 on either side are included, with their rear ends fixed to the chain plate 1. Both the central cutting tooth 3 and the outer cutting teeth 2 are constructed as sickle-shaped teeth, with the front end higher than the top of the rear end. A groove 4 for supporting stones is formed at the upper end of the central cutting tooth 3 and the outer cutting teeth 2. The groove 4 is used to hold the stone and allow the knife to move and remove it from the cutting groove. The chain plate 1 is connected to the knife chain box via a through hole 6 and a bolted component 7 to ensure the stability of the knife. The sickle-shaped design of the central cutting tooth 3 and the outer cutting tooth 2, with the front end higher than the top of the rear end forming the groove 4, guides the stone into the groove 4 during construction, effectively supporting and holding the stone. The groove 4 allows the knife to move and remove the stone from the cutting groove, solving the problem of removing large stones.

[0030] Specifically, the sickle-shaped design of the middle cutting tooth 3 and the outer cutting tooth 2, with the front end higher than the top of the rear end, forms a groove 4. This groove 4 guides the stone into the cutting groove during construction, effectively supporting and holding the stone. The cutting tool then moves the stone out of the cutting groove, solving the problem of removing large stones. Therefore, this technical solution, through the structural design of the chain plate 1, the middle cutting tooth 3, and the outer cutting tooth 2, forms the groove 4, which guides the stone into the cutting groove 4 during construction, effectively supporting and holding the stone. The cutting tool then moves the stone out of the cutting groove, solving the problem of removing large stones. Compared with existing technologies, this solution has higher structural strength and gripping ability, effectively improving construction efficiency and reliability.

[0031] Furthermore, the upper surfaces of the middle cutting tooth 3 and the outer cutting tooth 2 at the bottom of the tray 4 are both constructed as arc-shaped surfaces 5. Specifically, the design of the arc-shaped surface 5 can be achieved in various ways, such as using a circular arc, a parabola, or other continuous curve shapes. As a preferred embodiment, the radius of curvature of the arc-shaped surface 5 can be optimized according to the common shapes and sizes of stones in actual construction to ensure that the contact area between the cutting tooth and the stone is maximized. In addition, the surface of the arc-shaped surface 5 can be further smoothed to reduce the frictional resistance when in contact with the stone, thereby more effectively guiding the stone into the tray 4. This technical solution optimizes the contact surface shape between the cutting tooth and the stone by designing the upper surfaces of the middle cutting tooth 3 and the outer cutting tooth 2 at the bottom of the tray 4 as arc-shaped surfaces 5. The arc-shaped surface 5 design can guide the stone into the tray 4 on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can better fit the surface of stones of various shapes, increase the contact area, and thus improve the gripping effect of the cutting tool on the stone. This design avoids the problem of insufficient contact between the traditional flat cutting teeth and the rock, reducing the possibility of rock slippage and improving the efficiency and reliability of the cutting tool in hard strata construction. Compared with existing technologies, this solution significantly improves the tool's gripping ability and construction efficiency in hard rock formations, reducing equipment damage and construction interruptions caused by rock stagnation.

[0032] In a specific implementation, the length of the intermediate blade 3 is longer than the length of the outer blade 2, so that its front end is both higher than and extends beyond the front end of the outer blade 2. Specifically, the length of the intermediate blade 3 being longer than the outer blade 2 can be achieved in various ways. For example, the overall length of the intermediate blade 3 can be designed to be longer than the outer blade 2, or the front end of the intermediate blade 3 can extend outwards, exceeding the length of the outer blade 2. Furthermore, the front end of the intermediate blade 3 being higher than the front end of the outer blade 2 can be achieved by adjusting the installation angle or height of the blades. As a preferred embodiment, the front end of the intermediate blade 3 can be designed to be inclined outwards to further enhance its gripping effect. This technical solution enhances the gripping effect by increasing the length of the intermediate blade 3, allowing it to make deeper contact with the stone when gripping it. Simultaneously, the front end of the intermediate blade 3 being higher than the front end of the outer blade 2 helps to better secure the stone during the gripping process, preventing the stone from slipping. This design allows the middle cutting tooth 3 and the outer cutting tooth 2 to work together more effectively when gripping stones, making it easier to trap the stones within the cutting teeth. Compared with existing technologies, this solution significantly improves the gripping ability of the cutting tool in hard strata, reduces tool damage and construction interruptions caused by stones getting stuck, and improves construction efficiency and reliability.

[0033] Furthermore, the curvature of the middle blade 3 is greater than that of the outer blade 2 to enhance the gripping ability on loose stones. Specifically, the curvature design of the middle blade 3 can be achieved in various ways. For example, the radius of curvature of the middle blade 3 can be set to be smaller than that of the outer blade 2, or the curvature of the middle blade 3 can be set to be greater than that of the outer blade 2. In addition, the shape of the curvature of the middle blade 3 can be designed as parabolic, elliptical, or other suitable curved shapes to better conform to the surface of the loose stone. As a preferred embodiment, the curvature of the middle blade 3 can be designed to match the surface shape of the loose stone, thereby providing a larger contact area and friction during gripping. Therefore, the design of the middle blade 3 having a greater curvature than the outer blade 2 enhances the gripping ability by increasing the curvature of the middle blade 3, allowing it to better conform to the stone surface when gripping loose stones. This design allows the blade to more effectively catch and remove loose stones from the cutting groove, solving the problem of traditional blades' poor performance in gripping loose stones. Compared with existing technologies, the technical solution of this application has higher efficiency and reliability in gripping loose stones, reduces blade wear and damage, and improves construction efficiency.

[0034] like Figure 1As shown, the chain plate 1 has through holes 6, through which fastening components 7 pass to secure it to the tool chain box. The through holes 6 on the chain plate 1 can be designed as circular, elliptical, or other suitable shapes to accommodate different sizes of fastening components 7. The diameter and number of through holes 6 can be adjusted according to the size of the chain plate 1 and the required fixing strength. The fastening components 7 can be bolts, screws, or other fasteners, which, by passing through the through holes 6 and engaging with corresponding holes on the tool chain box, secure the chain plate 1. Furthermore, the through holes 6 can be distributed at the edges or center of the chain plate 1 to ensure uniform stress distribution and avoid localized stress concentration. By constructing through holes 6, the chain plate 1 allows the fastening components 7 to pass through, thus firmly fixing the chain plate 1 to the tool chain box. This design ensures a stable connection between the chain plate 1 and the tool chain box, improving the overall stability and durability of the tool. In this way, the chain plate 1 remains fixed during tool use, preventing loosening from affecting tool performance and construction efficiency. Furthermore, it allows for easy assembly and disassembly, facilitating quick operation. Compared to existing technologies, this solution achieves efficient fixing through a simple structural design, while reducing the difficulty of maintenance and replacement, and improving the flexibility and efficiency of construction.

[0035] Furthermore, through holes 6 are provided on the chain plate 1 between the central cutting tooth 3 and the outer cutting teeth 2 on both sides, and the through holes 6 on both sides of the central cutting tooth 3 are arranged in a trapezoidal shape. The trapezoidal arrangement of the through holes 6 can better distribute the stress, enhance the overall structural strength of the chain plate 1, and thus improve the stability and service life of the cutting tool. Specifically, the trapezoidal arrangement of the through holes 6 can be achieved by symmetrically distributing the through holes 6 on the chain plate 1 along the axis of the central cutting tooth 3. This arrangement makes the distribution of the through holes 6 on the chain plate 1 more uniform, effectively dispersing the stress generated by the cutting tool during operation and avoiding stress concentration that could lead to deformation or breakage of the chain plate 1. In addition, the trapezoidal arrangement of the through holes 6 can be further optimized by adjusting the angle and size of the trapezoid to adapt to the needs of different working environments.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, the trapezoidal arrangement of through holes 6 can be precisely manufactured using CNC machining technology to ensure that the position and shape of the through holes 6 meet the design requirements. Simultaneously, the edges of the through holes 6 can be chamfered to reduce stress concentration and further improve the durability of the chain plate 1. In this regard, the trapezoidal arrangement of through holes 6 optimizes the arrangement of the through holes 6, making the tool more stable during installation and reducing installation instability caused by improper arrangement of the through holes 6. The trapezoidal arrangement of through holes 6 can better distribute the force, enhancing the overall structural strength of the chain plate 1, thereby improving the stability and service life of the tool. Compared with existing technologies, this design, by optimizing the arrangement of the through holes 6, solves the technical problem of unstable tool installation caused by improper arrangement of through holes 6 on the chain plate 1, demonstrating significant practicality and innovation.

[0037] During normal TPD construction, when encountering uncrushable stones, small stones are carried out of the cutting groove by the teeth of ordinary cutting tools and placed in another location by a stone collection device. However, if encountering large stones with a diameter greater than 1.5 times the length of the cutting tool, due to their difficulty in breaking, the upward force of the cutting tool causes the stone to loosen and fall from the surrounding soil layer. Because of their large size, ordinary cutting tools cannot carry them out of the cutting groove, causing them to continuously impact the cutting tool, damaging or deforming the teeth. This also causes the equipment to vibrate continuously, affecting normal construction.

[0038] To achieve rapid rock removal, this application implements a TPD (Transient Damping) construction method for rapid rock removal using a sickle-shaped hook cutter, comprising the following steps:

[0039] Monitoring Cutting Resistance: During the TPD grooving process, the cutting resistance of the cutting tool is monitored in real time. When the resistance exceeds a set threshold and persists for a set time, it is determined that a large volume of rock is present. Specifically, during TPD grooving construction, the cutting resistance of the cutting tool is monitored in real time. If the system is set to a normal cutting resistance range of 0.5MPa to 1.2MPa, when the detected cutting resistance exceeds 1.8MPa and lasts for more than 5 seconds, the system automatically determines that a large volume of rock exists in the current cutting area and the rock removal procedure needs to be initiated.

[0040] Triggering the gripping action: The horizontal hydraulic cylinder drives the frame and chainsaw-type cutter box to retract to the designated position. When the system detects the presence of a large volume of rock, the control system automatically issues a command, causing the horizontal hydraulic cylinder to drive the frame and chainsaw-type cutter box to retract at a speed of 0.05 m / s. The retraction distance is calculated based on the length of the intermediate cutter tooth, which is 1.2-2.0 times the length of the intermediate cutter tooth. That is, if the length of the intermediate cutter tooth is 200 mm, the retraction distance can be 240 mm-400 mm. During the retraction process, the chainsaw-type cutter box maintains a low rotation speed, at 30% of the normal cutting speed, to avoid disturbing the surrounding soil.

[0041] The retraction distance is 1.2-2.0 times the length of the middle blade tooth, which can meet the installation requirements of the corresponding sickle-shaped hook knife.

[0042] Install a sickle-shaped hook blade: such as Figure 3 As shown, a sickle-shaped hook knife with the above structure is installed on at least one chainsaw unit of a chainsaw-type knife box.

[0043] Specifically, after retracting into position, the operator installs the pre-prepared sickle-shaped hooks onto the chainsaw unit of the chainsaw-type cutter box. Depending on the size and hardness of the rock, sickle-shaped hooks can be installed on multiple chainsaw units, typically on 2-3 adjacent chainsaw units, to enhance gripping ability.

[0044] Controlled propulsion and gripping: The lateral hydraulic cylinder moves forward slowly at a speed proportional to the real-time resistance, while simultaneously rotating the chainsaw-type cutter box. The sickle-shaped hook cutter grips the rock and pulls it out of the cutting groove. Specifically, the propulsion speed of the lateral hydraulic cylinder is proportional to the real-time monitored cutting resistance, calculated using the formula: v = k / F, where v is the propulsion speed (m / s), F is the real-time cutting resistance (MPa), and k is a proportionality coefficient ranging from 0.02 to 0.05. When the cutting resistance is 2 MPa, the propulsion speed is approximately 0.015 m / s; when the cutting resistance increases to 3 MPa, the propulsion speed automatically decreases to 0.01 m / s, ensuring safe and stable rock gripping.

[0045] During the advance, the chainsaw-style cutter box rotates at a speed of 15-20 rpm, allowing the sickle-shaped hook to contact the rock from different angles, increasing the success rate of gripping. Once the slot of the sickle-shaped hook successfully grips the rock, the system detects a stable increase in resistance. At this point, the control system automatically adjusts the advance direction of the lateral cylinder, lifting it upwards at a speed of 0.03 m / s while simultaneously maintaining a horizontal outward movement at a speed of 0.02 m / s, thus carrying the rock out of the cutting groove.

[0046] Based on the threshold range of the monitored cutting resistance, the system determines the size of the rock and selects a sickle-shaped hook of appropriate size. Specifically, the system categorizes rocks into three levels according to the magnitude of the cutting resistance: small rocks (1.8-2.5 MPa), medium rocks (2.5-3.5 MPa), and large rocks (>3.5 MPa). For small rocks, a small sickle-shaped hook with a width of 240 mm, a central tooth length of 150 mm, and an outer tooth length of 120 mm is selected; for medium rocks, a medium sickle-shaped hook with a width of 350 mm, a central tooth length of 200 mm, and an outer tooth length of 160 mm is selected; for large rocks, a large sickle-shaped hook with a width of 450 mm, a central tooth length of 250 mm, and an outer tooth length of 200 mm is selected. By selecting a sickle-shaped hook of appropriate size, gripping efficiency can be improved and energy consumption reduced.

[0047] The determination of the set threshold includes: dynamically adjusting the threshold range according to the soil layer type; the trigger threshold for hard rock strata is 1.5 times the normal resistance, and for soft soil strata it is 1.2 times. Specifically, the system automatically identifies the soil layer type of the current construction area through preliminary geological survey data and real-time cutting resistance analysis. For hard rock strata (such as granite, limestone, etc.), the normal cutting resistance range is 1.0-1.5 MPa, and the trigger threshold is set to 1.5 times the normal resistance, i.e., 1.5-2.25 MPa; for soft soil strata (such as clay, sandy soil, etc.), the normal cutting resistance range is 0.5-0.8 MPa, and the trigger threshold is set to 1.2 times the normal resistance, i.e., 0.6-0.96 MPa. The system automatically calibrates the normal resistance benchmark value every 10 minutes to adapt to changes in geological conditions.

[0048] This application utilizes a sickle-shaped hook blade mounted on the chainsaw unit 9. Its sharp, wide-set teeth and groove 4 effectively grip and remove large stones. This design enhances the blade's gripping ability in hard strata, solving the problem of traditional blades being unable to remove stones due to insufficient structural strength or limited gripping capacity. The installation of the sickle-shaped hook blade allows the TPD diaphragm wall chainsaw to remove large stones more efficiently, thereby improving construction efficiency and reducing costs.
