Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of shield tunnel lining segment technology, specifically a tunnel lining segment based on honeycomb structure assembly and its application method. Background Technology
[0002] Shield tunneling technology is widely used in urban rail transit, railways, highways, water conservancy, and other fields due to its excellent construction safety, efficiency, high applicability, and low environmental impact. Shield segments are the main assembly components in shield tunneling, serving as the permanent lining structure of the tunnel; their quality directly affects the overall quality and safety of the tunnel. As tunnel engineering continues to advance into deeper and more extreme environments, the requirements for shield segments worldwide are becoming increasingly stringent.
[0003] Traditional shield tunnel lining typically consists of multiple rings of different types of segments, which are then connected along the tunnel axis to form the entire tunnel lining. The segments are mostly connected by bent bolts, a simplistic connection method. Furthermore, the currently used tunnel lining segments do not consider the stress coupling capacity between the individual segments, especially along the tunnel's longitudinal direction.
[0004] Meanwhile, the current consensus on the shape of lining segments is relatively limited, with few proposals for irregularly shaped segments other than the traditional rectangular and trapezoidal shapes. Furthermore, there is little exploration and research into the actual effects of various segments, whether in model tests or numerical simulations.
[0005] Therefore, there is a need to provide a new type of tunnel lining segment. Summary of the Invention

[0079] The technical effects of this invention are undeniable, and its beneficial effects are as follows:
[0080] 1. In bionics, the honeycomb structure is the optimal topological structure for covering a two-dimensional plane, possessing excellent geometric and mechanical properties. By making the lining segments of a standard section into a hexagonal honeycomb structure, the stress of a single tunnel segment can be reasonably coupled to the six adjacent lining structures, transferring stress between the segments to improve the overall structural performance and reduce stress concentration caused by local rock displacement.
[0081] 2. In this invention, the connection between a single pipe segment and its surrounding segments is closer. This invention utilizes the tenon and mortise structure on each side of the pipe segment to tightly connect the segments together, reducing the use of bending bolts. This not only avoids the damage to the pipe segment material caused by the use of traditional bending bolts, and the difficulty in bolt installation caused by slight misalignment, but also effectively reduces material and labor costs and construction difficulty, ensures the safety of construction personnel, and improves the integrity and stability of the lining structure.

[0155] Example 9:
[0156] The main structure of this embodiment is the same as any one of embodiments 1 to 8, and further includes several standard honeycomb blocks A, rectangular blocks C and vest-shaped blocks B.
[0157] In the starting and sealing section, the rectangular block CI is located at the bottom and is vertically connected to the standard honeycomb block AI. The rectangular block CI and the standard honeycomb block AI together connect to the left and right vest-shaped blocks BI and BII. The left and right vest-shaped blocks BI and BII continue to connect to the corresponding rectangular blocks CII and CIII, respectively. The rectangular blocks CII and CIII are connected to the same vest-shaped block BIII at the top, forming a closed loop. In the standard section, the standard honeycomb blocks A are staggered to form a honeycomb cylindrical structure.

[0161] The three-sided continuous groove is located in the upper isosceles trapezoidal structure of the vest-shaped block B. The side grooves and side protrusions are both located in the lower rectangular structure of the vest-shaped block B.
[0162] Preferably, the circumferential angle between the two tips of the standard honeycomb block A is 60°, and the standard honeycomb block A is an axisymmetric block.
[0163] The standard honeycomb block A and the vest-shaped block B have the same dimensions for their three continuous grooves.

[0170] The side protrusions and side grooves on the rectangular block C and the vest-shaped block B, as well as the adjacent continuous grooves and side grooves, can interlock with each other.
[0171] It is worth noting that after the standard honeycomb block A, rectangular block C, and vest-shaped block B are assembled, there are no extra gaps between the tenon and mortise structures, and the tunnel lining structure is completely integrated, tightly connected, and evenly stressed.
