Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mine tunnel support, and in particular to a method and structure for unloading and coordinating support for improving tunnel support capacity. Background Art

[0002] During a mine's operating life, existing tunnels are repeatedly subjected to mining disturbance loads due to the excavation of nearby new tunnels and the extraction of ore resources. Under the influence of these disturbance loads, the existing tunnel surrounding rock undergoes irregular deformations such as local extrusion and depression, causing the steel arches and anchor (cable) trays to be subjected to local point loads instead of uniform surface loads. The uneven loads cause stress concentrations in certain areas of the steel arches and anchor (cable) trays, often leading to localized failure of the steel arches and anchors (cables) in these stress concentration areas, resulting in a loss of overall bearing capacity.

[0003] In summary, the present invention designs a method and structure for unloading and coordinating support to improve the tunnel support capacity. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the existing technology, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and structure for unloading and coordinating support to improve the support capacity of the tunnel. The tunnel surrounding rock undergoes irregular deformation under the influence of mining loads, and the tunnel surrounding rock and the supporting structure can be in a coordinated deformation state.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution: a method for unloading and coordinating support to improve the support capacity of a roadway, comprising the following steps:

[0006] 1. Embedding the flexible deformable material into the rigid support material: First, embed the flexible deformable material into the concave surface of the rigid support material so that the contact surface between the rigid support material and the roadway is completely covered by the flexible material with a covering thickness of 5-15 cm;

[0007] 2. Erection of unloading and coordinating support structure: Erection of unloading and coordinating support structure shall be started according to the spacing of support design. During the erection process, the flexible deformable material shall be in full contact with the tunnel wall;

[0008] 3. Active and passive combined support system: Anchor rods or cables are used to provide support within the spacing of the unloading and solidification coordinated support structure to form an active and passive combined support system;

[0009] 4. Flexible material filling during anchor rod or anchor cable construction: During the construction of anchor rods or anchor cables, flexible deformable materials are also used to fill the contact surface between the anchor rod or anchor cable tray and the tunnel to ensure that the support system can always fully contact the tunnel wall during the deformation of the tunnel.

[0010] Preferably, the support structure in step 3 is a steel arch frame or a steel tube concrete support, etc.

[0011] Preferably, the form of the rigid support material can be selected according to the needs. When the requirements for the rigid support material are low, the rigid support material can be a U-shaped shed. When the requirements for the rigid support material are high, the rigid support material can be a steel tube concrete arch frame.

[0012] As a preference, the corresponding active support method can be selected according to the specific working conditions. When the requirements for active support are low, anchor rods can be used for support. When the requirements for active support are high, anchor cables can be used for support.

[0013] A unloading and solidification cooperative support structure for improving the tunnel support capacity comprises a flexible deformable material in contact with the surrounding rock, and a rigid support material serving as a supporting main body material is arranged below the flexible deformable material.

[0014] Preferably, the flexible deformable material is a highly elastic deformable material such as rubber.

[0015] Preferably, the rigid support material adopts a U-shaped shed or a steel tube concrete anchor rod and cable structure.

[0016] Preferably, the steel tube concrete anchor rod and anchor cable structure comprises a tray and an anchor rod (anchor cable), wherein the anchor rod passes through the surrounding rock and the flexible and deformable material below the surrounding rock and is fixed by the tray.

[0017] Preferably, the flexible deformable material is embedded in or wrapped on the surface of the rigid support material, and the flexible deformable material and the rigid support material are bonded together by a modified epoxy resin adhesive.

[0018] Preferably, the thickness of the surrounding rock and the rigid support material is 3-15 cm.

[0019] Beneficial effects of the present invention: The present invention adopts a combined unloading and coordinated support structure composed of a rigid support material and a flexible deformable material. When supporting a tunnel, the presence of the flexible deformable material can ensure that the support structure can be in close contact with the tunnel surrounding rock. While evenly transferring the surrounding rock pressure to the rigid bearing structure, it can also allow the surrounding rock to deform to a certain extent. By utilizing the deformation characteristics of the flexible material, part of the surrounding rock pressure is unloaded, and a unloading and coordinated support system is formed with the rigid support material to improve the bearing capacity of the support system. At the same time, the unloading and coordinated support structure composed of a combination of the rigid support material and the flexible deformable material can, to a certain extent, prevent or even eliminate the situation where the local irregular deformation of the tunnel surrounding rock caused by the action of the disturbance load causes local damage to the support structure, resulting in the overall loss of bearing capacity.
