DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0022] TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine) consists of a shield main machine and a supporting system. Due to the large size and complex structure of TBM, the assembly of TBM requires sufficient space. At present, the assembly of TBM can be divided into two parts: inside the tunnel and outside the tunnel. The assembly outside the tunnel usually assembles the TBM main machine according to normal procedures, and then the supporting parts are transported and hoisted into the tunnel in sections for assembly. The assembly inside the tunnel requires ensuring that the main machine and the equipment bridge are assembled at the entrance of the tunnel and meet the step-in conditions, and then the supporting trailers are gradually disassembled, transported and assembled. During the entire assembly process, site layout and preparation are very important. It is necessary to ensure that the site is clean and orderly, and the equipment is placed reasonably to reduce interference with each other. The stepping hole structure for inclined shaft TBM provided in this application solves the problems of on-site assembly and site planning and layout of TBM equipment during TBM construction through reasonable space planning, thereby improving construction efficiency.
[0023] The stepping hole structure of the inclined shaft TBM provided in this application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 is a schematic longitudinal section diagram of the stepping hole structure of the inclined shaft TBM provided in this application, Figure 2 It is a schematic plan view of the stepping hole structure of the inclined shaft TBM provided in this application.
[0025] The present application provides a stepping hole structure for inclined shaft TBM, aiming to provide an efficient and safe working environment to facilitate the assembly, operation and maintenance of TBM equipment. The height of the stepping hole should be sufficient to allow the TBM equipment and the gantry to enter and exit smoothly, ensuring that there is enough space for operation and movement. The stepping hole structure mainly includes a starting section 1, an assembly section 2 and a gantry 3. The assembly section 2 includes an inclined shaft lower curved section 21, which is used for the transition connection between the starting section 1 and the assembly section 2. The inclined shaft lower curved section 21 is connected to the starting section 1, and the inclined shaft lower curved section 21 is provided with a lower flat section 22, a lower flat turning section 23 and an entrance 24 connected in sequence in the direction away from the starting section 1; the length of the inclined shaft lower curved section 21, the lower flat section 22, the lower flat turning section 23 and the entrance 24 is greater than the length of the TBM equipment; the gantry 3 is fixedly installed in the assembly section 2.
[0026] In this application, the connection between the starting section 1 and the assembly section 2 is the starting point of TBM excavation. The assembly section 2 includes the lower curved section 21 of the inclined shaft, the lower flat section 22, and the lower flat turning section 23, wherein the lower curved section 21 of the inclined shaft is connected to the starting section 1, and the connection between the lower curved section 21 of the inclined shaft and the starting section 1 is the starting point of TBM excavation. The lower curved section 21 of the inclined shaft is an arc-shaped structure as a whole, and the surface is flat, ensuring that the TM equipment can smoothly transition to the starting section 1. The lower flat section 22 is connected to the lower curved section 21 of the inclined shaft. As the main place for the assembly of TBM equipment, the space of the lower flat section 22 should be able to meet the storage and assembly of all parts of the TBM equipment. For example, when the gantry 3 is installed with the lower flat section 22, the height of the lower flat section 22 should be greater than the height of the gantry 3. It can be understood that during the assembly process, the components located at the top of the TBM also need to be hoisted by the gantry 3, and the height of the gantry 3 is greater than the height of the TBM. In the length direction, the length of the assembly section 2 should be greater than the length of the TBM equipment, so as to ensure the normal operation of the TBM equipment. It can also be understood that the sum of the lengths of the inclined shaft lower bend section 21, the lower flat section 22, the lower flat turning section 23 and the entrance 24 that constitute the assembly section 2 is greater than the length of the TBM equipment.
[0027] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the assembly section 2 includes a slag discharge pipe 211, a slag-water separation device 25, a drainage pipe 26 and a slag conveyor belt 27; the slag discharge pipe 211 is installed in the lower bend section 21 of the inclined shaft, the inlet of the slag-water separation device 25 is aligned with the slag outlet of the slag discharge pipe 211, the drainage outlet of the slag-water separation device 25 is connected to the drainage pipe 26, and the slag outlet of the slag-water separation device 25 is located above the slag conveyor belt 27.
[0028] The slag produced during the excavation of the TBM equipment enters the slag discharge pipe 211 through the slag chute, and is discharged to the slag-water separation device 25 through the slag discharge pipe 211. After separation by the slag-water separation device 25, it is discharged to the drainage pipe 26 and the slag conveyor belt 27 respectively, and then transported to the outside of the tunnel by the two. By setting up the slag discharge pipe 211, the continuous discharge of slag during TBM excavation can be achieved, and the difficulties of fast slag discharge speed and easy blockage of slag in inclined shaft construction can be alleviated. An independent working space is separated in the working area of the TBM equipment, which is effectively connected with the slag-water separation device 25, easy to install, inspect, and maintain, with a simple structure, to prevent the equipment from being forced to shut down due to slag discharge obstruction, which will have an adverse effect on the overall progress and safety of tunnel construction.
[0029] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the slag discharge pipe 211 is a curved pipe, and the bending angle of the curved pipe is 135°≤θ<180°. This design allows the slag to flow more smoothly in the slag chute, reduces the possibility of blockage, and improves the slag discharge efficiency.
[0030] In some embodiments, one end of the slag discharge pipe 211 is located on the slope of the lower curved section 21 of the inclined shaft, and the other end of the slag discharge pipe 211 is located on the side of the inclined shaft foundation, and the slag discharge pipe 211 located on the slope of the lower curved section 21 of the inclined shaft is 5 cm-10 cm higher than the slope. The design of the slag discharge pipe 211 being higher than the slope can prevent the slag from rolling down the slope during the slag discharge process, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the slag discharge process.
[0031] In some embodiments, a track for TBM equipment operation is provided in the middle of the lower curved section 21 of the inclined shaft, and pedestrian ladders are provided on both sides of the track. This design provides a stable operation track for TBM equipment and a safe walking passage for personnel. When equipment fails, personnel can walk to the fault site from the pedestrian ladder for maintenance.
[0032] In some embodiments, the width of the assembly section 2 is greater than the width of the starting section 1. This design facilitates the layout of the equipment, and the slag-water separation device 25 is arranged on the side of the lower curved section 21 of the inclined shaft, so that the slag discharge pipe 211 and the slag-water separation device 25 can be better connected.
[0033] In some embodiments, the angle between the lower flat turning section 23 and the lower flat section 22 is 120°-150°. A reasonable turning angle ensures that the TBM equipment can turn smoothly.
[0034] In some embodiments, the ground surface of the lower flat turning section 23 is a slope with a slope of 3°-10°. The ground surface of the lower flat turning section 23 is designed to be a slope, so that the equipment can be transported more smoothly.
[0035] In some embodiments, a ventilation duct is provided on the top of the assembly section 2. This design ensures air circulation in the stepping hole and provides a good working environment.
[0036] The present application provides a step-in hole structure for an inclined shaft TBM, which aims to provide an efficient and safe working environment to support the assembly, operation and maintenance of TBM equipment. The structure includes a starting section 1 and an assembly section 2, wherein the assembly section 2 includes a lower curved section 21, a lower flat section 22, and a lower flat turning section 23 of the inclined shaft, to ensure that the TBM equipment can smoothly transition and operate smoothly. In particular, the assembly section 2 also integrates a slag discharge system such as a slag discharge pipe 211, a slag-water separation device 25, a drainage pipe 26, and a slag conveyor belt 27 to efficiently handle the slag generated during the excavation process. The slag discharge pipe 211 is designed as a curved pipe, and the bending angle is optimized to reduce blockage and improve slag discharge efficiency. In addition, the structure also takes into account facilities such as pedestrian ladders, rails, ventilation ducts, etc. to improve personnel passage, equipment transportation and ventilation conditions in the tunnel. The overall design not only ensures the stable operation of the TBM equipment in the inclined shaft, but also improves construction efficiency and operation safety.
