Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tunnel support and maintenance, and in particular to a single-power, bidirectionally operating integrated trolley for tunnel support and maintenance. Background Art

[0002] In tunnel construction, support trolleys are key equipment for ensuring tunnel wall stability, and the reliability of their drive chains directly determines construction efficiency. Due to the harsh conditions of tunnels, such as high humidity and rock dust (according to the "Tunnel Construction Equipment Operation and Maintenance Guide," dust concentrations often exceed 150mg / m³), traditional chain drive systems face significant maintenance challenges.

[0003] The mainstream trolleys adopt an open chain design. Mud intrusion during construction causes an average of more than 3 jamming failures per month, and each shutdown for chain cleaning takes 2 to 4 hours. The support and chain maintenance equipment are separated, and additional cleaning units are required. Equipment switching compresses the effective operation time to less than 65%. However, dual-motor trolleys are prone to power asynchrony on slope sections, with traction fluctuations of up to ±15%, inducing uneven pressure on the support surface. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a single-powered bidirectional trolley with an integrated chain self-cleaning function. Through an integrated transmission-maintenance design, tunnel construction can be achieved with zero downtime maintenance. Summary of the Invention

The support and chain maintenance equipment are separated, and an additional cleaning unit is required. Equipment switching compresses the effective operating time to less than 65%. However, dual-motor trolleys are prone to power asynchrony on slope sections, with traction force fluctuations of up to ±15%, which induces uneven pressure on the support surface.

[0011] Preferably, the axis of the brush roller is inclined at an angle of 15 to 45 degrees to the running direction of the chain, and the bristles cover the entire width of the chain.

[0013] Preferably, in the step 2: When the motor reverses, the trolley is driven to move in the opposite direction through the S-shaped winding chain; The brush roller cleans the chain in both forward and reverse movements.

[0014] Preferably, the step 1 further includes: hooking and connecting the tunnel side wall anchor point to achieve radial positioning of the trolley through chain tensioning force.
