Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tunnel support technology, and in particular to a test device and method for spraying tunnel walls. Background Technology

[0002] Tunnel boring machines (TBMs), as efficient and continuous tunnel construction equipment, have been widely used in underground engineering fields such as transportation, water conservancy, and municipal engineering. However, in TBM construction, the efficiency of the tunnel support process has always been a key bottleneck restricting the overall construction progress and project economy. Especially under complex geological conditions (such as fractured zones, weak surrounding rock, and high ground stress areas), the shortcomings of traditional support technologies are further highlighted, leading to excessively long support operations, disconnection from the tunneling process, and even safety hazards such as surrounding rock instability. Traditional tunnel initial support concrete construction mainly uses manual shotcreting or robotic shotcreting operations. Manual shotcreting suffers from problems such as high labor intensity, harsh working environment, low shotcreting efficiency, high material rebound rate, and unstable spraying quality. It heavily relies on the operator's experience and makes it difficult to guarantee the uniformity and density of the shotcrete layer. In recent years, the use of hydraulic mechanical shotcreting has reduced the labor intensity and improved efficiency to some extent, but it is still essentially still in the category of "spraying". During operation, the concrete rebound loss of such equipment is still relatively large, which not only wastes materials but also exacerbates dust pollution inside the tunnel. Meanwhile, the surface of the sprayed concrete is not smooth, often requiring a lot of manual leveling, making it impossible to achieve integrated spraying and molding, which restricts further improvement of construction efficiency.

[0003] Chinese patent document 202211260812.0 discloses a tunnel shotcrete method, which includes the following steps: S1, making a preliminary determination of the type of shotcrete to be used; S2, driving into different shotcrete trucks according to actual needs, the top of the shotcrete trucks being equipped with robotic arms, and selecting the corresponding concrete filter screens according to different shotcrete types and needs; S3, first connecting the shotcrete pipe to the water supply pipe to spray water to wet the area to be shotcreted, and roughening overly smooth parts to increase friction.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned solutions have at least the following technical problems in implementation: traditional research methods mostly rely on field tests or simple devices, which cannot repeatedly simulate various complex working conditions of shotcrete on tunnel walls under controlled environments. Furthermore, the test devices often only allow for fixed tests on a specific cross-section, making adjustments difficult and failing to meet the research needs of multiple test variables, including tunnel diameter, spraying angle, and spraying position. Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a shotcrete test device and method for tunnel wall support. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above technical problems, this disclosure provides a mold spraying test device and method for tunnel wall support, which solves the problems that traditional research methods in the prior art mostly rely on field tests or simple devices, which cannot repeatedly simulate various complex working conditions of spraying concrete on the inner wall of the tunnel in a controlled environment. Moreover, the test devices can often only conduct fixed tests on a specific cross section, which is difficult to adjust and cannot meet the research needs of multiple test variables, including tunnel diameter, spraying angle, spraying position, etc.

[0006] According to one aspect of this disclosure, a spraying test device for tunnel wall support is provided, comprising a poured concrete foundation, a tunnel-type steel arch fixedly mounted on the concrete foundation, the outside of the tunnel-type steel arch wrapped with a rubber sheet, a spraying mechanism disposed inside the tunnel-type steel arch, a power supply device disposed outside the tunnel-type steel arch, the spraying mechanism being mounted on a sliding rail to adjust the axial position of the spraying mechanism, the sliding rail being fixed to the concrete foundation; the spraying mechanism includes a rotary telescopic mechanism, a belt-type template is mounted above the rotary telescopic mechanism to adjust the circumferential position and angle of the belt-type template, the rotary telescopic mechanism includes a rotating structure, a telescopic structure is mounted on the rotating structure, a front support is rotatably mounted on one side of the rotating structure via a support column, and the other side is mounted on the sliding rail via a triangular support mechanism.

[0007] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the input port of the spraying mechanism is connected to a wet spraying machine and an air compressor.

[0008] In some embodiments of this disclosure, a support structure is provided on both sides below the tunnel-type steel arch frame.

[0009] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the front support includes a support bracket and a quick-release structure. The support bracket has pre-drilled roller mounting holes at its bottom. The quick-release structure includes an upper mounting bracket and a lower mounting bracket. The quick-release structure has a hollow structure in the middle to accommodate the support column, and multiple circular bearings are spaced around the support column. The upper and lower mounting brackets have corresponding bolt through holes on their right sides and are installed via upper and lower bracket connecting plates. A handle is provided on the left side of the quick-release structure to lift the upper mounting bracket.

[0010] In some embodiments of this disclosure, baffles are installed on both sides of the sliding track.

[0011] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the triangular support mechanism includes a lower roller mounting bracket for fixing the rollers, and the triangular support mechanism also includes an upper vertical fixing plate and a back support bracket.

[0012] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the rotating mechanism is mounted on a cylindrical frame via bearings, the cylindrical frame is welded to a triangular support mechanism, a hydraulic motor is mounted above the triangular support mechanism, a driving gear is mounted on the hydraulic motor via a coupling, and a driven gear is arranged around the rotating mechanism near the position of the triangular support mechanism, with the driving gear and the driven gear meshing with each other.

[0013] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the rotary telescopic mechanism further includes a telescopic structure, which includes a fixed telescopic frame and a movable telescopic frame fitted inside it. A hydraulic cylinder connecting base is welded to the bottom inner side of the fixed telescopic frame, and the hydraulic cylinder connecting base is connected to a fixed hydraulic cylinder through a hydraulic cylinder base connecting hole. A hydraulic cylinder connecting base is welded to the upper inner side of the movable telescopic frame, and the hydraulic cylinder connecting base is connected to a movable hydraulic cylinder through an upper hydraulic cylinder connecting hole. Two hydraulic oil inlet and outlet holes are provided at the upper and lower ends of the fixed hydraulic cylinder. By discharging and releasing hydraulic oil, the hydraulic cylinder is driven to extend and retract, thereby pushing the mold spraying mechanism to change the spraying diameter.

[0014] According to another aspect of this disclosure, a method for testing sprayed concrete for tunnel wall support is provided, applicable to the aforementioned sprayed concrete testing apparatus for tunnel wall support, comprising the following steps: S1. Test preparation: A tunnel-type steel arch frame is fixedly installed on the poured concrete foundation, and a rubber plate is wrapped around its outside to simulate a tunnel wall; the spraying mechanism is installed on the sliding rail through the triangular support mechanism at its bottom and the front support, and the power supply equipment, wet spraying machine and air compressor are connected. S2. Axial position adjustment: Adjust the axial position of the spraying mechanism by sliding the rail to move it to the test section inside the tunnel-type steel arch frame; S3. Circumferential and radial adjustment: Start the rotary telescopic mechanism, and drive the active gear and the passive gear to mesh through the hydraulic motor, so as to drive the rotating structure and the belt-type template above to rotate circumferentially, and adjust the circumferential position and angle of the template. The hydraulic cylinder is extended and retracted by controlling the hydraulic oil circuit. The hydraulic oil enters the fixed cylinder of the hydraulic cylinder through the hydraulic oil inlet and outlet holes, which pushes the movable cylinder of the hydraulic cylinder to move, so that the movable telescopic frame extends or retracts along the fixed telescopic frame, thereby adjusting the spraying diameter of the mold spraying mechanism to adapt to different tunnel cross-section dimensions. S4. Disassembly and Support Adjustment: Adjust the front support, operate the quick-release structure, and pull the handle to lift the upper mounting bracket, separating it from the lower mounting bracket, thereby quickly disassembling or installing the support column; after adjustment, re-fix it through the upper and lower bracket connecting plates and bolt through holes; S5. Mold spraying test: Start the wet spraying machine and air compressor to deliver concrete slurry to the mold spraying mechanism through the inlet. The slurry is then evenly sprayed onto the tunnel wall simulated by the rubber plate through the belt-type template. If necessary, adjust the position of the mold spraying mechanism by sliding the track, or adjust the spraying angle and diameter by rotating the telescopic mechanism.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The purpose of this invention is to develop a rapid shotcrete test device for tunnel walls. A tunnel-type steel arch structure is installed on a concrete surface, and steel tracks are laid inside the tunnel-type steel arch structure. A rapid shotcrete device is then installed. The rapid shotcrete device uses a large hydraulic motor and hydraulic cylinder to drive and change the rotation speed and shotcrete diameter, thereby allowing the concrete to have a better setting time and better adhere to the tunnel wall for shotcreting. During shotcreting, sufficient concrete is first sprayed out using a spray nozzle, and then a belt-type template is used to slowly roll over the concrete surface to ultimately reduce the concrete rebound rate, reduce surface flatness errors, and improve the efficiency of concrete shotcreting.

[0016] The poured concrete foundation provides a stable, robust, and level installation base, ensuring the structural stability and reliability of the entire test apparatus during the spraying process and avoiding test errors caused by foundation settlement or deformation. The tunnel-type steel arch accurately simulates the contour and support structure of a real tunnel, providing a realistic and reliable test environment for the spraying experiment, making the test results more instructive for engineering applications. The outer rubber-covered surface provides a smooth, easy-to-demold spraying interface, simulating the characteristics of the initial support rock surface and facilitating post-test cleaning of the sprayed concrete, protecting the steel arch from adhesion damage, and improving test efficiency and the reusability of the apparatus. The internally integrated spraying mechanism and external power supply equipment achieve integration of the core functions of spraying while separating the power source, ensuring operational safety and facilitating maintenance and operation of the spraying mechanism. The spraying mechanism, mounted on a sliding rail, allows for flexible and precise movement along the tunnel axis, facilitating continuous or repeated tests on different sections and greatly improving test flexibility and efficiency. The rotary telescopic mechanism integrates rotation and telescopic functions and is the core component for achieving multi-degree-of-freedom adjustment of the nozzle. A belt-type template mounted above the rotary telescopic mechanism enables circumferential rotation and angle adjustment of the template, accurately simulating different spraying angles and coverage areas, suitable for testing needs under various complex working conditions. The rotating structure features a front support mounted on one side via a support column and on the other side via a triangular support mechanism mounted on a sliding rail, providing stable and reliable primary and secondary support points. This ensures the stability of the rotary structure while allowing for flexible rotation within a certain range, balancing rigidity and flexibility. The input port of the spraying mechanism connects to the wet spraying machine and air compressor. The wet spraying equipment provides power and material supply, ensuring stable mix proportions and quality of the sprayed concrete, keeping test conditions consistent with actual construction, and improving the reliability of test data. Support structures are installed on both sides below the tunnel-type steel arch frame, further enhancing its rigidity and stability, preventing vibration or deformation during spraying operations, and ensuring a safe and accurate test environment. The quick-release structure of the front support allows for rapid disassembly and installation, greatly facilitating the entry, exit, maintenance, and position adjustment of the spraying mechanism, saving auxiliary work time and improving test efficiency. Baffles installed on both sides of the sliding track effectively prevent the spraying mechanism from derailing or slipping during movement, enhancing the safety and reliability of the equipment. The triangular support mechanism provides excellent stability and strong support for the entire rotary telescopic mechanism; integrated rollers enable smooth movement on the track. Gear meshing transmission ensures reliable and controllable 360-degree rotation of the belt-driven template with precise positioning. The telescopic structure, driven hydraulically, allows for stepless adjustment of the radial dimension of the spraying mechanism, enabling a single unit to adapt to the testing needs of tunnel cross-sections of different diameters, offering high versatility and reducing costs.
