Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of shaft excavation, and in particular to a test system and method for testing the load-bearing characteristics of shaft segments disturbed by mechanical caisson milling. Background Technology
[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization and the extension of underground space development to deeper areas, the reliance on shaft structures in engineering fields such as urban rail transit, integrated pipe corridors, and deep energy reserves is becoming increasingly significant. As the core hub connecting the surface and underground space, the construction safety, stability, and efficiency of shafts directly determine the construction quality and operational life of the entire underground project.
[0003] Traditional shaft construction techniques, such as diaphragm walls and pile foundations, are increasingly limited by site and environmental protection requirements. With the development of mechanized shaft construction technology, caisson-type shaft boring machines (such as the SCJM method) have become the preferred equipment for ultra-deep shaft construction due to their high degree of mechanization and strong site adaptability. This method innovatively adopts non-drainage excavation technology, which can significantly reduce the cost of retaining structures and effectively reduce the impact on the surrounding environment, injecting new vitality into shaft construction.
[0004] The unique operating mode of the mechanical caisson process fundamentally differs the stress mechanism of its suspended segments from that of traditional caisson segments, shield tunnel segments, and jacking tunnel segments. Existing research systems are insufficient to meet the load-bearing characteristics requirements of this type of segment: on the one hand, mechanical caisson segments need to be assembled in a suspended state, and the surrounding rock constraints of the assembled segment structure change continuously during the sinking process, resulting in poor assembly stress stability; on the other hand, the caisson-type vertical shaft tunneling machine needs to be directly supported and fixed on the assembled segment structure to carry out milling operations. The cutting reaction force and torque generated during the milling process will be transmitted to the segments through the support system, forming dynamic disturbance loads; at the same time, the attitude adjustment (such as correction and leveling) during the sinking process will further cause the segments to bear uneven lateral forces and bending moments, exacerbating the stress complexity. Its special process results in the mechanical caisson suspending the segments being in a special stress environment of "dynamic disturbance load + unfixed surrounding rock constraint + multi-condition coupling", and existing stress theories and monitoring technologies for caissons, shield tunnels and pipe jacking segments cannot be directly applied.
[0005] Given the complexity of the stress on suspended segments in mechanical caisson construction and the gaps in existing research, current engineering practice relies heavily on empirical analogies for segment structure design, lacking a precise understanding of the actual load-bearing characteristics of segments under milling disturbance. Excessive design redundancy increases engineering costs; insufficient strength can easily lead to segment cracking, deformation, or even instability, seriously threatening construction safety. Therefore, developing a testing system and method capable of accurately simulating the milling disturbance process in mechanical caisson construction and testing the load-bearing characteristics of vertical shaft segments in real time is of significant theoretical and engineering guiding value for revealing the mechanical response laws of suspended segments under milling disturbance, optimizing segment structure design parameters, and ensuring the safety of mechanical caisson construction. Furthermore, it is a key technological support for promoting the application of mechanical caisson technology to deeper and more complex geological conditions. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a test system and method for the bearing characteristics of shaft segments disturbed by mechanical milling in shaft tunneling, so as to simulate the milling process of shaft tunneling machine and the stress condition of the segments.
[0007] To address this, the present invention provides a mechanical method for testing the bearing capacity of disturbed shaft segments during milling and drilling. This system, characterized by comprising a test base, a soil structure, shaft segments, a shaft boring machine (TBM), a milling follower mechanism, a milling force application mechanism, and a data monitoring system, includes a silicone rubber leak-proof and drag-reducing sleeve, soil, and a soil sleeve arranged sequentially from the inside out outside the shaft segments. The test base serves as a base supporting the soil structure and a suspension mechanism for adjusting the height of the shaft segments within the soil structure. The milling follower mechanism includes a vertical follower trolley and a horizontal follower trolley. The vertical follower trolley follows the height of the cutting drum of the TBM, and the horizontal follower trolley follows the horizontal position of the cutting drum. Both trolleys can simultaneously rotate circumferentially around the shaft segments to follow the cutting drum. The milling orientation of the shaft is specified. The milling force application mechanism includes: a force application mechanism one for simulating the horizontal component of the milling force and a force application mechanism two for simulating the vertical component of the milling force. The force application mechanism one is mounted on a vertical following trolley and can move up and down. The force application mechanism two is mounted on a horizontal following trolley. The data monitoring system includes a combined sensor for monitoring the milling force of the shaft segments, a load sensor one for monitoring the force of the force application mechanism one and a load sensor two for monitoring the force of the force application mechanism two, and a load sensor three for monitoring the force of the telescopic boom of the shaft tunneling machine. During the shaft segment bearing characteristic test, the shaft tunneling machine and / or shaft segments are first adjusted according to the set test conditions. Then, the milling following system is adjusted. Then, the milling force application mechanism simulates the application of milling force to the cutting drum. Finally, the data monitoring system monitors the force of the shaft segments for bearing characteristic analysis.
[0008] According to another aspect of the present invention, a method for testing the bearing capacity characteristics of disturbed vertical shaft segments during mechanical caisson milling is provided. Using the aforementioned mechanical caisson milling disturbed vertical shaft segment bearing capacity testing system, the testing method includes: based on the characteristics of mechanical caisson milling construction, establishing test items for the stress influence on the segments, including milling force F1 influence test, milling radius R influence test, milling orientation β influence test, and excavation section height... The impact test, as well as the impact test of excavation depth H, is conducted by developing different test condition combinations through orthogonal or uniformity test methods. During the test under different test conditions, the monitoring values of the combined sensor, load sensor one, load sensor two, and load sensor three are observed. The stress bearing characteristics of the shaft segments during the mechanical caisson milling process are obtained through the combination of test conditions.
[0009] This system can simulate the milling process of a shaft tunneling machine and the stress on the tunnel segments, and conduct in-depth research on the stress characteristics and variation law of the tunnel segment structure. It provides a solid theoretical basis and technical support for the optimized design of construction schemes, the rational selection of tunnel segment parameters, and the safety monitoring during construction, thereby effectively improving the safety, efficiency, and economy of shaft construction.

Circular monorail trolley 1 is interlocked with circular track 1, and circular monorail trolleys 2 and 3 are interlocked with circular track 2. The three circular monorail trolleys can move on the circular tracks.
[0052] The vertical track 73 is bolted to the first circumferential monorail trolley 75 and the second circumferential monorail trolley 76. A vertical following trolley 78 is installed on the vertical track 73, and the vertical following trolley 78 can move up and down on the vertical track 73.

[0061] The data from strain gauge 81 is transmitted to a data acquisition unit (not shown in the figure) via a communication cable. These strain gauges measure the strain values generated by the stress on the shaft segments. Then, the elastic modulus is determined based on the strength grade of the concrete in the shaft segments. According to Hooke's Law The stress values at corresponding locations of the shaft segments were calculated. Through stress value Calculate the axial force and bending moment at the corresponding positions of the shaft segments.

[0066] Referring to the figures, the mechanical method for testing the bearing capacity of disturbed vertical shaft segments during milling and drilling of a caisson according to the present invention includes the following steps S1 to S4.
[0067] S1. Precast shaft segments: Pressure boxes, optical fibers and communication cables are pre-embedded simultaneously when making shaft segments.
[0068] S2. Assemble the shaft segments: Install the shaft boring machine, circumferential track 1, and vertical track onto the shaft segments, and attach strain gauges at the same time. Connect the communication cable to the data acquisition unit.
[0069] S3. Set up the testing system: Install the soil sleeve, soil, shaft segments, silicone rubber leak-proof and drag-reducing sleeve, shaft excavator, and milling follower mechanism on the testing base, and at the same time set up a data monitoring system.
[0070] S4. Milling Disturbance Test: Based on the characteristics of mechanical caisson milling construction, determine the magnitude of different milling forces F1, milling radius R, milling orientation β, and excavation section height. And the impact of excavation depth H on the stress on the tunnel lining segments.
[0071] Different combinations of test conditions were developed using orthogonal or uniformity testing methods.
[0072] During the above tests, the values of load sensor 1, load sensor 2, load sensor 3, pressure cell, strain gauge, and optical fiber were observed. By combining working conditions, the stress bearing characteristics of the vertical shaft caisson segments during the mechanical caisson milling process can be obtained.
[0073] Step S3 includes the following steps S31-S35.
[0074] S31. Install circumferential track two: Fix circumferential track two to the base with bolts.
[0075] S32. Install the soil sleeve: Install the sealing ring in the circular groove, and then place the soil sleeve, ensuring that it fits tightly with the sealing ring.
[0076] S33. Install silicone rubber leak-blocking and drag-reducing sleeve: Apply silicone rubber double-sided adhesive to the bottom of the center step to bond the silicone rubber leak-blocking and drag-reducing sleeve and the base.
[0077] S34. Filling: Fill the saturated sand and gravel layer, unsaturated sand and gravel layer, and silty clay layer in sequence.
[0078] S35. Install shaft segments: Slowly lower the shaft segments along the silicone rubber leak-proof and friction-reducing adhesive to the designated position. The lower edge of the shaft segments is lifted by steel wire rope to achieve suspension and fixation.
[0079] Step S4 specifically includes the following steps S41-S45.
[0080] S41. Milling Force F1 Influence Test: The loads of telescopic rod one and telescopic rod two are applied synchronously, and the resultant force of the two is along the direction of the telescopic arm. With other factors kept constant, the resultant force of the two is applied linearly to investigate the influence of milling force on the bearing characteristics of shaft segments.
[0081] S42. Milling radius R influence test: By changing the position of the horizontal following trolley, the influence of the milling radius R on the bearing characteristics of the vertical shaft segments can be investigated under different milling radii R while keeping other factors constant.
[0082] S43. Milling orientation β influence test: Adjust the orientation of the translation track and keep other factors constant to explore the influence of milling orientation β on the bearing characteristics of shaft segments.
[0083] S44, excavation section height Impact Test: Changing the distance between the cutting roller and the lower edge of the caisson shaft affects the height of the excavated section. Adjustments were made to explore the height of the excavation section. The impact on the load-bearing characteristics of shaft segments.
[0084] S45, Excavation Depth H Influence Test: Shaft segments of different heights are inserted into the soil sleeve, and then soil of the corresponding height is filled in, so as to effectively control the excavation depth H and explore the influence of excavation depth H on the bearing characteristics of shaft segments.
[0085] The direction of the resultant force F1 exerted by telescopic boom 1 and telescopic boom 2 on the telescopic boom of the shaft boring machine is constant. The magnitude and direction of the resultant force F1 are as follows:
[0086] (1)
[0087] In the above formula, f1 is the force applied to the cutting drum by the first telescopic rod, in N; f2 is the force applied to the cutting drum by the second telescopic rod, in N; F1 is the resultant force applied to the telescopic boom of the shaft boring machine by the first and second telescopic rods, in N; h is the height of the telescopic boom along the vertical direction of the tunnel segment, in m; R is the milling radius, in m.
[0088] The telescopic boom is equipped with a load sensor, which can accurately measure the load value borne by the telescopic boom. The measured result can be directly compared with the pre-set design value F1 for verification.
[0089] Keeping other factors constant (milling radius R, milling orientation β, excavation section height) (Excavation depth H), the resultant force F1 is increased at a constant speed along the direction of the telescopic arm, the values of each test element are monitored, and the influence of the load F1 on the vertical shaft segment stress state is studied.
[0090] In step S42, the distance between the bolt holes on the translation track and the center point of the shaft tunneling machine is the milling radius R, where R = 0 ~ D / 4. This distance is adjusted by adjusting the position of the bolt holes on the translation track of the horizontal following trolley.
[0091] Keeping other factors constant (milling force) Milling azimuth β, excavation section height In addition to the excavation depth H), the vertical following trolley position was kept fixed, and the position of the horizontal following trolley on the translation track was adjusted. The excavation radius R was set to D / 10, D / 5, 3D / 10, and 2D / 5 respectively. A total of 4 sets of comparative experiments were carried out to observe the values of each test element and study the influence of the milling radius R of the shaft tunneling machine on the stress state of the shaft segments.
[0092] In step S43, the three circumferential monorail trolleys 1, 2, and 3 are precisely controlled to rotate between adjacent support legs, thereby driving the translation track to perform circular motion around the center of the circumferential track 2. The center angle between adjacent support legs of the shaft tunneling machine is 120°. The initial position of the translation track is directly below any support leg. Different milling orientations β will cause different forces at each support leg position. If the milling orientation β is biased to one side of any support leg, it may cause uneven stress distribution, forming an eccentric load, which will cause stress concentration in the tunnel segment and cracks. Therefore, according to the principle of symmetry, the milling orientation β is precisely controlled to 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, and 60°, and a total of 6 sets of comparative experiments are carried out.
[0093] Furthermore, the translation track is rotated sequentially to the set angle, while keeping other factors constant (such as the magnitude of the milling force). Milling radius R, excavation section height In addition to the excavation depth H), the values of each test element were observed to study the influence of the milling orientation β of the shaft tunneling machine on the stress state of the shaft segments.
[0094] In step S44, the position of the circular steel plate is adjusted by rotating the nut. Using the steel wire rope on the hoisting plate, the shaft segments are raised and lowered to adjust the distance between the cutting drum and the lower edge of the shaft segments. Based on the actual excavation height of the caisson-type shaft boring machine in on-site construction, several different excavation height ratios are designed in the experiment, including 1 / 3... 2 / 3 , 4 / 3 5 / 3 Five sets of comparative experiments were conducted.
[0095] Furthermore, adjust the height of the excavation section. Upon reaching the design height, while keeping other factors constant (such as the magnitude of the milling force)... The milling radius R, milling azimuth β, and excavation depth H were measured, and the values of each test element were observed to study the excavation section height of the shaft boring machine. The impact on the stress state of shaft segments.
