TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pipe jacking machine launching station, in particular to an ultra-large section rectangular pipe jacking steel-concrete structure launching platform and a use method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The rectangular pipe jacking machine launching station is a special construction facility for providing an initial operation environment and support for the rectangular pipe jacking machine in urban underground engineering. The core includes a launching platform, a back force receiving structure, a jacking driving system, a pipe jacking machine body fixing device, a jacking reaction force transmission device, a pipe precise splicing guide device, and a pipe deviation correction device. The rectangular pipe jacking machine launching station has a high space utilization rate and is mainly used in underground pipe galleries and comprehensive pipeline engineering.
[0003] Currently, when checking the state of each component (the launching platform, the back force receiving structure, the jacking system, etc.) of the launching station, the rectangular pipe jacking machine body needs to be fixed on the launching platform guide rail to ensure that the machine body axis is consistent with the designed jacking direction. The back force receiving structure is adjusted to stably connect with the launching platform. The jacking driving system is pre-pressed and tested to confirm that the reaction force transmission path is unobstructed, and to avoid structural displacement during construction. When the pipes are connected, the pipes are placed in the track arranged in advance by the external travelling crane. However, during the lowering process, the travelling crane only has rough positioning effect, and manual pushing is still needed to position and correct the lowering steps. This requires a large amount of manpower, and the correction in the relatively closed environment of the launching station and the large pipe itself greatly affects safety.
[0004] After the pipe is lowered to the placement position and connected, the workers need to fix and connect the pipes by welding. However, if the pipe still has position deviation when it is lowered into the track, it is difficult to correct the pipe again during the connection process due to the large weight of the pipe and the increased friction force caused by the contact with the track below, which affects the subsequent welding and pipe jacking construction efficiency.
[0005] During the pipe jacking process, hard ground may be encountered. The existing equipment usually has two solutions for this situation: one is to continue feeding, and the other is to directly stop the equipment by detecting the pressure. However, if the hard geological environment only has a small depth, stopping for inspection (especially when the workers are inspecting) will greatly reduce the actual construction efficiency. The present application mainly compensates and improves the second situation.

The upper push frame 20 is a conical metal block. When it is subjected to an external force from above or below, it can push the upper push rod 21 to move to both sides. Each main straightening frame 8 has two symmetrically distributed limiting grooves 18. Each limiting groove 18 has a limiting slider 19 slidably connected to it and fixedly installed on the surface of the lower push frame 17. The limiting grooves 18 and the limiting sliders 19 can limit the lower push frame 17 in the vertical direction, ensuring that the lower push frame 17 can only move in the left and right direction. Each limiting groove 18 has two symmetrically distributed guide plates 9 fixedly installed on the side near the upper end. The swing angle of the straightening arm 12 and the moving distance of the upper push frame 20 and the lower push frame 17 are all limited.
[0044] In this embodiment, when the pipe jacking operation is being carried out, the external trolley can be placed at a suitable position above the starting station. Then, the trolley's grippers, which are U-shaped grippers, can fit and match the shape of the upper surface of the splicing pipe 7 to clamp the splicing pipe 7 prepared above the starting station. After clamping, the splicing pipe 7 is roughly positioned at a suitable position on the guide rail 10 inside the starting station.
[0045] When the crane drives the gripper and splicing pipe 7 to descend, the lower surface of the splicing pipe 7 will first contact the upper push frame 20, pushing the two upper push frames 20 gradually outward. The upper push frame 20 drives the upper push rod 21 and the upper end of the push arm 22 to move outward. With the limit of the second straightening fixing shaft 49 and the upper limit hole 25, the lower end of the push arm 22 moves inward, thereby driving the upper end of the connecting arm 16 and the straightening arm 12 to move inward synchronously. With the limit of the straightening slide 14 and the first straightening fixing shaft 13, the lower end of the straightening arm 12 and the straightening wheel 11 move outward, so that the straightening wheel 11 is away from the middle position of the base plate 3.
[0046] When the lower surface of the splicing pipe 7 contacts the lower push frame 17, the splicing pipe 7 disengages from the upper push frame 20 due to its descent. The splicing pipe 7 pushes the upper surfaces of the lower push frame 17, the first straightening connecting shaft 15, and the straightening arm 12 outward, thereby driving the straightening arm 12 and the straightening wheel 11 to push inward. As the splicing pipe 7 continues to descend, the straightening wheel 11 placed on the inner side pushes it to assist in positioning. If the splicing pipe 7 is significantly biased to one side, when the splicing pipe 7 pushes the lower push frame 17 in this direction inward to the limit position, the splicing pipe 7 will slide towards the center through the upper inclined surface of the lower push frame 17 to assist in positioning.
[0047] After the splicing pipe 7 is positioned, the crane will drive the gripper to detach from the splicing pipe 7 and rise. During the rising process, the gripper will first contact the upper push frame 20 from below and push the upper push frame 20 outward, thereby driving the straightening wheel 11 away from the middle position of the base plate 3. At this time, it is away from the splicing pipe 7 so as not to affect the subsequent pipe jacking work.
[0048] Finally, the main hydraulic cylinder 4 can be controlled by the controller to perform pipe jacking on the spliced pipe 7.
[0049] As an example, four symmetrically distributed fixed rails 29 are fixedly installed on both sides of the annular pusher 6. The fixed rails 29 are inclined metal blocks. The same sliding frame 30 is slidably connected to the surface of every two adjacent fixed rails 29. Multiple reset springs are fixedly installed between the sliding frame 30 and the U-shaped pusher 5. A limiting frame 31 that can clamp and limit the splicing pipe 7 is fixedly installed on one side of each sliding frame 30. The limiting frame 31 is a trapezoidal metal frame. Two symmetrically distributed push plates 28 that can contact the sliding frame 30 are fixedly installed on one side of the U-shaped pusher 5. The push plates 28 are rectangular metal blocks.
[0050] In this embodiment, when the jacking operation is performed on the placed spliced pipe 7, the U-shaped pusher 5 will slide forward in the annular pusher 6, and drive the push plate 28 on one side of the U-shaped pusher 5 to move. The push plate 28 pushes the sliding frame 30 and the limiting frame 31 forward. The sliding frame 30 and the limiting frame 31 are pushed out in conjunction with the inclined fixed rail 29 until the U-shaped pusher 5 is attached to one side of the annular pusher 6. The limiting frame 31 is then completely pushed out. When the U-shaped pusher 5 and the annular pusher 6 continue to be pushed forward and gradually contact the spliced pipe 7, the limiting frame 31 can perform further correction processing on the spliced pipe 7 through its own inclined surface and the horizontal surface on its inner side.
[0051] As an example, each main hydraulic cylinder 4 has a primary pusher 33 fixedly mounted at one end. Each main hydraulic cylinder 4 also has a partially externally positioned compensating pusher 32 fixedly mounted inside. The compensating pusher 32 is connected to an external power supply and controller. A pressure sensor (not shown in the diagram) is located at the end of the main hydraulic cylinder 4. The pressure sensor is connected to an external power supply and controller and is used to drive and control the compensating pusher 32. Each compensating pusher 32 has a fixedly mounted push block 35 at its output end. Each push block 35 has two rotatable secondary push arms 39 on both sides. Each secondary push arm 39 has a primary push arm 38 hinged to one side of the primary pusher 33 on its inner side. Each secondary push arm 39 has a rotatable tertiary push arm 40 hinged to one side of the secondary pusher 36 on its surface. Each of the first-stage pushers 36 has a support rod 37 fixedly installed on one side. The support rod 37 is fixedly installed on one side of the U-shaped pusher 5. The pusher block 35, the first-stage pusher arm 38, the second-stage pusher arm 39, and the third-stage pusher arm 40 can form a multiplication structure. Their combined use can reduce the driving force. The structure is equipped with a laser level detector to detect the position and angle of the shield cutter head. The laser level detector can control the emergency stop of the main hydraulic cylinder 4 and the compensation pusher 32. Both the main hydraulic cylinder 4 and the compensation pusher 32 are equipped with stroke sensors. Each first-stage pusher 33 has two symmetrically distributed and fixedly installed limit rods 34 on one side of the second-stage pusher 36. The limit rods 34 can limit and support the pushed second-stage pusher 36 to ensure the stability of the second-stage pusher 36 during movement and adjustment.
[0052] In this embodiment, during the pipe jacking operation, if the tunnel boring machine cutter head comes into contact with hard ground during the drilling process, the pressure on the main hydraulic cylinder 4 will suddenly increase. The pressure sensor receives the signal and sends it to the controller to control the compensation push rod 32 to work. The compensation push rod 32 pulls back the first-stage push frame 33, the first-stage push arm 38, the second-stage push arm 39, the third-stage push arm 40, the second-stage push frame 36, the support rod 37, and the U-shaped push frame 5 at a uniform speed. This speed is less than the feed speed of the main hydraulic cylinder 4. Thus, the spliced pipe 7 will still be pushed forward, but the pushing speed will decrease, and the cutter head will continue to move forward. If the pressure is still too high when the compensation push rod 32 is pulled back to the set distance, the stroke sensor can be used to stop the compensation push rod 32 and the main hydraulic cylinder 4 in an emergency, reminding the staff to replace the cutter head or to conduct geological inspection and exploration.
[0053] If, during the pushing process, some of the main hydraulic cylinders 4 burst or the splicing pipe 7 tilts due to soft soil during excavation, the laser level detector will detect and simultaneously control the main hydraulic cylinders 4 and the compensation push rod 32 to stop urgently. Then, the staff can inspect and repair the main hydraulic cylinders 4 or the internal environment of the splicing pipe 7.
[0054] It is worth mentioning that the dual push rods of the main hydraulic cylinder 4 and the compensation push rod 32” work together to overcome the limitations of a single push rod with a compensation mechanism, which is "mutually exclusive in terms of thrust and compensation performance and prone to imbalance in case of failure" through "decoupling and independent control of thrust output and compensation adjustment". It can more reliably adapt to scenarios such as hard geological impact and cylinder explosion / pipeline tilting, while taking into account the high thrust requirements of pipe jacking, buffer protection effect and construction safety.
[0055] As one embodiment, the U-shaped pusher 5 has an inner cavity 42, within which a support frame 43 is slidably connected. Multiple guide cylinders 47 are rotatably connected within the support frame 43. Multiple guide rails 46 are fixedly installed on the inner side of the annular pusher 6. Each guide rail 46 is a downwardly curved metal rod. The number of guide cylinders 47 and guide rails 46 is the same, and the multiple guide cylinders 47 are slidably connected to different surfaces of the guide rails 46. Two symmetrically distributed extension plates 48 are fixedly installed on one side of the support frame 43. Each of the two extension plates 48 has a fixed end that can connect with… The cleaning plate 41 that contacts the guide rail 10 is shaped to match the guide rail 10. The bottom of the cleaning plate 41 is made of soft material, which can clean the debris on the surface of the guide rail 10 and reduce the problem of the splicing pipe 7 being affected by the debris remaining on the guide rail 10. The U-shaped pusher 5 has two symmetrically distributed support grooves 44 that communicate with the inner cavity 42. Each support groove 44 is slidably connected to a support slider 45 that is fixedly installed on the surface of the support frame 43.
[0056] In this embodiment, after each pipe jacking is completed, waste material needs to be injected into the waste trolley. Then, the waste trolley is controlled to move to the position where it is separated from the splicing pipe 7 at the starting station. Then, with the help of an external crane, the waste trolley is pulled out of the starting station. Finally, the waste trolley is put into the splicing pipe 7 in the starting station. After the waste trolley is reset, the controller controls the main hydraulic cylinder 4 to work, driving the U-shaped pusher 5 to move back (to make reasonable space for the next placement of the splicing pipe 7). During the U-shaped pusher 5 retraction process, it first deviates from the annular pusher 6 and pulls the support frame 43 and guide cylinder 47 outward. The support frame 43 is limited by the support slide 44 and the support slider 45, so it can only slide up and down relative to each other in the U-shaped pusher 5. Therefore, when the support frame 43 is retracted, it is limited to move downward by the guide rail 46, thereby driving the extension plate 48 and the cleaning plate 41 to follow and fall, so that the cleaning plate 41 is attached to the surface of the guide rail 10.
[0057] The continuous pull-back movement of the U-shaped pusher 5 can drive the annular pusher 6 to pull back and reset, and at the same time drive the cleaning plate 41 attached to the surface of the guide rail 10 to move along with it, so as to clean the debris on the surface of the guide rail 10.
[0058] A method for using a launching platform for an ultra-large cross-section rectangular steel-concrete jacking structure includes the following steps:
[0059] S1. First, position the external crane at a suitable position above the starting station, and at the same time confirm that the foundation structure of the starting platform (the back plate 1 and the bottom plate 3, which are composed of steel plates and concrete, and the steel structure 2 on the bottom plate 3 for prefabricating and installing the guide rail 10) is installed firmly. Then, use the crane's U-shaped gripper to clamp the prestressed reinforced concrete spliced pipe 7 prepared above the starting station to complete the initial positioning after clamping the pipe.
[0060] S2. Then the crane drives the gripper and splicing pipe 7 to descend. The lower surface of the splicing pipe 7 first contacts the upper push frame 20 inside the straightening main frame 8, pushing the two upper push frames 20 to move outward, which in turn drives the upper push rod 21 and the upper end of the push arm 22 to move outward synchronously. Under the limiting action of the second straightening fixing shaft 49 and the upper limit hole 25, the lower end of the push arm 22 moves inward, driving the upper end of the connecting arm 16 and the straightening arm 12 to move inward. With the limiting action of the straightening slide 14 and the first straightening fixing shaft 13, the straightening wheel 11 at the lower end of the straightening arm 12 moves outward, away from the middle of the base plate 3, making enough space for the splicing pipe 7 to descend.
[0061] S3. As the spliced pipe 7 continues to descend, its lower surface contacts the lower push frame 17 and then separates from the upper push frame 20. The pipe pushes the lower push frame 17 (which only moves left and right under the limit of the limit slide groove 18 and the limit slider 19), the first correction connecting shaft 15, and the upper end of the correction arm 12 to move outward, which drives the correction wheel 11 to move inward. As the pipe continues to descend, the correction wheel 11 on the inward side assists in positioning the pipe. If the pipe is seriously biased to one side, it will slide along the upper inclined surface of the lower push frame 17 to the middle to assist in the correction work.
[0062] S4. After the splicing pipe 7 is roughly positioned and placed on the guide rail 10, the trolley drives the gripper to disengage from the splicing pipe 7 and rise. During the rising process, the gripper contacts the push frame 20 from below and pushes it inward, driving the straightening wheel 11 away from the splicing pipe 7 to avoid affecting the subsequent jacking.
[0063] S5. The main hydraulic cylinder 4 on the back plate 1 is started by the controller. The main hydraulic cylinder 4 pushes the U-shaped pusher 5 (sliding in the ring pusher 6) forward. When the U-shaped pusher 5 moves, the push plate 28 on one side pushes the sliding frame 30 (slidingly connected to the fixed rails 29 on both sides of the ring pusher 6) and the limiting frame 31 forward until the U-shaped pusher 5 fits against the ring pusher 6. At this time, the limiting frame 31 is fully pushed out and contacts the splicing pipe 7 together with the U-shaped pusher 5 and the ring pusher 6. The inclined surface and the inner horizontal surface of the limiting frame 31 are used to perform secondary correction on the pipe to ensure that the pipe is stably pushed along the guide rail 10.
[0064] S6. If the shield cutter head contacts hard ground, the pressure of the main hydraulic cylinder 4 will increase suddenly. The pressure sensor at its end will transmit the signal to the controller, which will control the compensating push rod 32 to pull back the first-stage push frame 33, the first-stage push arm 38, the second-stage push arm 39, the third-stage push arm 40 and the second-stage push frame 36 (connected to the U-shaped push frame 5 through the support rod 37) at a uniform speed. The pullback speed is less than the feed speed of the main hydraulic cylinder 4 to ensure that the pipeline advances slowly. If the pressure does not decrease after the compensating push rod 32 is pulled back to the set distance, the stroke sensor will trigger an emergency stop to remind the staff to replace the cutter head or investigate the geology. If the main hydraulic cylinder 4 bursts or the geology is soft and causes the spliced pipeline 7 to tilt, the laser level detector inside the structure will detect the abnormal position and angle of the cutter head in real time and immediately control the main hydraulic cylinder 4 and the compensating push rod 32 to stop. The operation will resume after the staff has inspected the equipment or dealt with the internal environment of the pipeline.
[0065] S7. After each pipe jacking operation, the waste material is first injected into the waste trolley. The waste trolley is then moved out of the starting station by a crane. After cleaning, the trolley is reset in the spliced pipe 7. Then, the controller controls the main hydraulic cylinder 4 to drive the U-shaped pusher 5 to pull back. During the pull-back process, the U-shaped pusher 5 and the annular pusher 6 are misaligned, pulling the support frame 43 (limited by the support slide groove 44 and the support slider 45, only sliding up and down) and the guide cylinder 47 (slidably connected to the guide rail 46 on the inner side of the annular pusher 6) in the inner cavity 42 of the U-shaped pusher 5 to move outward. The bending structure of the guide rail 46 causes the support frame 43 to move down, driving the cleaning plate 41 (matching the shape of the guide rail 10, with a soft material at the bottom) at one end of the extension plate 48 to fit against the guide rail 10. As the U-shaped pusher 5 continues to pull back, the cleaning plate 41 moves with it to clean the debris on the surface of the guide rail 10. At the same time, the annular pusher 6 is reset with the pull-back of the U-shaped pusher 5, which is ready for the next pipe lowering and jacking.
[0066] The present invention has the following technical advantages.
[0067] 1. This invention utilizes a linkage correction structure consisting of the upper pusher 20, the lower pusher 17, and the correction wheel 11. During the descent of the pipeline, the correction wheel 11 can be automatically driven to move outward to create space and then inward to assist in positioning. If the pipeline deviates, it can be automatically corrected by the inclined surface of the lower pusher 17 without the need for manual intervention. This not only improves the accuracy of pipeline positioning but also reduces manual operation steps, enhances safety, and increases positioning efficiency, laying a good foundation for subsequent jacking operations.
[0068] 2. In this invention, while the U-shaped pusher 5 and the annular pusher 6 work together to push, the pusher plate 28 can drive the sliding frame 30 and the limiting frame 31 to automatically push out along the inclined fixed rail 29. When the U-shaped pusher 5 and the annular pusher 6 are in contact, the limiting frame 31 can perform secondary correction on the spliced pipe 7 through its own structure. This design allows the jacking and correction actions to be carried out simultaneously, avoiding construction deviations caused by offset during pipe advancement, ensuring that the pipe always moves stably along the guide rail 10, effectively improving the straightness and engineering quality of pipe jacking construction, while saving the time of setting up a separate correction process and improving the overall construction efficiency.
[0069] 3. This invention achieves real-time monitoring and precise control through pressure sensors and laser level detectors. When encountering hard ground, the compensation push rod 32 can drive the relevant push frame and push arm to slowly pull back, ensuring the slow advancement of the pipeline to cooperate with the cutter head operation. When the pressure is continuously too high, it can also trigger an emergency stop to avoid equipment overload damage. In the event of hydraulic cylinder explosion or pipeline tilting, the laser level detector can quickly control the equipment to stop, preventing the accident from escalating. This multi-level abnormal response mechanism greatly improves the safety and stability of construction, reduces the construction period delay and equipment maintenance costs caused by abnormal situations, and reduces construction risks.
[0070] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.

First, position the external crane at a suitable position above the starting station, and at the same time confirm that the foundation structure of the starting platform is installed firmly. Then, use the crane's U-shaped gripper to clamp the prestressed reinforced concrete spliced pipe 7 prepared above the starting station to complete the initial positioning after clamping the pipe. S2. Then the crane drives the gripper and splicing pipe 7 to descend. The lower surface of the splicing pipe 7 first contacts the upper push frame 20 inside the straightening main frame 8, pushing the two upper push frames 20 to move outward, which in turn drives the upper push rod 21 and the upper end of the push arm 22 to move outward synchronously.

The pipe pushes the lower pushed frame 17, the first straightening connecting shaft 15, and the upper end of the straightening arm 12 to move outward, which in turn drives the straightening wheel 11 to move inward. As the pipe continues to descend, the straightening wheel 11 on the inward side assists in positioning the pipe. S4. After the splicing pipe 7 is roughly positioned and placed on the guide rail 10, the trolley drives the gripper to disengage from the splicing pipe 7 and rise. During the rising process, the gripper contacts the push frame 20 from below and pushes it inward, driving the straightening wheel 11 away from the splicing pipe 7 to avoid affecting the subsequent jacking. S5. Start the main hydraulic cylinder 4 on the back plate 1. The main hydraulic cylinder 4 pushes the U-shaped pusher 5 forward. When the U-shaped pusher 5 moves, the push plate 28 on one side pushes the sliding frame 30 and the limiting frame 31 forward until the U-shaped pusher 5 fits against the annular pusher 6. At this time, the limiting frame 31 is fully pushed out and contacts the splicing pipe 7 together with the U-shaped pusher 5 and the annular pusher 6. The pipe is then corrected a second time by the inclined surface and the inner horizontal surface of the limiting frame 31 to ensure that the pipe is stably advanced along the guide rail 10.

S7. After each pipe jacking operation, the waste material is first injected into the waste trolley. The waste trolley is then moved out of the starting station by a crane. After cleaning, the trolley is reset into the splicing pipe 7. Then, the main hydraulic cylinder 4 drives the U-shaped pusher 5 to pull back. During the pull-back process, the U-shaped pusher 5 and the annular pusher 6 are misaligned, pulling the support frame 43 and guide cylinder 47 in the inner cavity 42 of the U-shaped pusher 5 to move outward. The bending structure of the guide rail 46 causes the support frame 43 to move down, which drives the cleaning plate 41 at one end of the extension plate 48 to fit against the guide rail 10. When the U-shaped pusher 5 continues to pull back, the cleaning plate 41 moves with it to clean the debris on the surface of the guide rail 10. At the same time, the annular pusher 6 is reset with the pull-back of the U-shaped pusher 5, which is ready for the next pipe lowering and jacking.
