DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The technical solution of the utility model is further described below, but the scope of protection required is not limited to the description.
[0021] A foldable advance support device for a tunnel boring machine includes a sliding groove 1, a support beam 2, and a shield 3; sliding grooves 102 are arranged on both sides of the sliding groove 1, and sliding blocks 202 are arranged on both sides of the support beam 2, and the sliding blocks 202 are assembled in the sliding grooves 102, and the two ends of the sliding groove 1 and the support beam 2 are respectively connected to the two ends of the sliding cylinder 11, and a lifting cylinder group is also hinged on the support beam 2, and the other end of the lifting cylinder group is hinged on the shield 3.
[0022] During support, the push cylinder 11 is filled with fluid to push the push beam 2 out of the push groove 1. After the push cylinder 11 reaches the limit position, it drives the support cylinder group to raise the shield 3, and stops after raising one end. Then, it drives the first extension cylinder and the second extension cylinder to push the first extension beam and the second extension beam out of the shield respectively, and then starts the support cylinder group to contact the top plate as needed, and stops when the hydraulic pressure of the support cylinder reaches the set value. Figure 1 The support is stable, providing workers with enough space to support the anchor net, with a high safety factor. When the support work of this section of the tunnel is completed, the reverse return of the liquid is the return of the oil cylinder in the above support steps. After the support device is recovered, Figure 4 , and the next cycle is repeated in this way.
[0023] Furthermore, the lifting cylinder group includes a first supporting cylinder 8 and a second supporting cylinder 10. The two first supporting cylinders 8 are hinged to both sides of one end of the supporting beam 2. The other ends of the two first supporting cylinders 8 are hinged to one end of the shield 3. The first supporting cylinder 8 supports one end of the shield 3. The second supporting cylinder 10 is hinged to both sides of the supporting beam 2. The two second supporting cylinders 10 on the same side are parallel to each other and the hinge points are respectively at the two ends of the supporting beam 2. The other ends of the two second supporting cylinders 10 on the same side are respectively hinged to the middle part and the other end of the shield 3. One of the two second supporting cylinders 10 on the same side is supported in the middle part of the shield 3, and the other is supported at the other end of the shield 3. The first supporting cylinder 8 and the second supporting cylinder 10 respectively support the two ends and the middle part of the shield 3, ensuring the stability of the support device. The two second supporting cylinders 10 on the same side are cross-supported, so that they can be placed parallel to the supporting beam after recovery.
[0024] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, two middle partitions 201 are provided in the middle of the support beam 2, both of which are parallel to the center line thereof, and a number of ribs 203 are evenly arranged on the end surface of the support beam 2, and the two ends of the ribs 203 are respectively vertically connected to the slider 202 and the middle partition 201, the ribs 203 increase the rigidity of the support beam 2, and can serve as a supporting component of the support cylinder, and lie flat on the ribs after the support cylinder is retracted to prevent the shield from pressing the support cylinder, and a push plate 14 is also vertically connected between the two middle partitions 201, and a push seat 13 is installed on the side of the push plate 14 opposite to the push cylinder 11, and the push seat 13 is hinged to the push rod of the push cylinder 11, and a second support cylinder hinge seat 205 and a third support cylinder hinge seat 206 which are not in the same straight line are installed on the opposite surfaces of the ribs 203 near the edges of the two ends of the support beam 2, and a first support cylinder hinge seat 204 is also installed on the back of the second support cylinder hinge seat 205.
[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of countersunk holes 101 are processed on the push groove 1, and the push groove 1 is fixed to the top of the tunnel boring machine by means of bolts passing through the countersunk holes 101, and a plurality of pads 9 are also fixed to the lower end surface of the push groove 1.
[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, the slide groove 102 is an I-beam, and the cross section of the slider 202 is processed to fit the shape of the groove of the I-beam.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, a U-shaped card 104 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the slide groove 102. The outer side of the I-beam of the U-shaped card 104 forms a through groove, which can be used as a wire trough to protect the wires.
[0028] like Figure 1As shown, a first extension beam 4 is also installed in the shield 3, a first extension cylinder 7 is installed in the shield 3, a push rod of the first extension cylinder 7 is connected to the first extension beam 4, a second extension beam 5 is installed in the first extension beam 4, a second extension cylinder 6 is hinged on the lower end surface of the first extension beam 4, and a push rod of the second extension cylinder 6 is hinged on the lower end of the second extension beam 5. The support area of the shield can be adjusted.
[0029] Furthermore, a cylindrical groove with a diameter larger than that of the first extending cylinder 7 is processed in the first extending beam 4, and the end of the push rod of the first extending cylinder 7 is fixed at the bottom of the cylindrical groove. When the first extending beam is recovered, the first extending cylinder 7 can be accommodated in the cylindrical groove, thereby reducing the volume of the shield after recovery.
