Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of machinery, in particular to a tunneling machine. Background Art
[0002] As the main equipment for developing tunnels underground, the weight of the tunnel boring machine is relatively large, and the driving force required during the movement is correspondingly large. The walking mechanism, as the main supporting component, is close to the ground and is responsible for the forward, backward, turning and cutting and feeding movements of the tunnel boring machine. The connection method between the existing tunnel boring machine main body 2 and the walking mechanism 3 is shown in the figure. The tunnel boring machine main body includes an upper connecting plate 1 21 close to the shovel end and an upper connecting plate 2 22 away from the shovel end, and the walking mechanism includes a lower connecting plate 1 31 corresponding to the upper connecting plate 1 21 and a lower connecting plate 2 32 corresponding to the upper connecting plate 22; the lower connecting plate 1 31 is provided with a through hole, and the bolt 4 passes through the through hole and is tightened in the screw hole of the upper connecting plate 1 21; for accurate positioning, the lower connecting plate 1 31 is also provided with a keyway in a vertical direction, and the positioning key 33 is fixed in the keyway by a keyway screw 331, and the upper connecting plate 1 21 is provided with an upper keyway 23 corresponding to the position of the positioning key; while the upper connecting plate 2 and the lower connecting plate 2 are only connected by bolts.
[0003] Due to the extremely harsh working conditions in coal mines, the tunnel boring machine encountered a fault in which the bolts connecting the walking mechanism and the main body of the tunnel boring machine broke during operation. The fault phenomenon was manifested as the bolts breaking flush with the main body plane, and the bolt threads remaining in the main body had a polarization phenomenon of loose or tight. The bolt preload was too large, and the preload of the threaded bolt was too large, which not only failed to prevent loosening, but also kept the bolts in a stretched state for a long time. Many tiny cracks would be generated at the bottom of the thread groove. As the tunnel boring machine moved forward, backward, turned, and cut and fed, the bolt threads and the internal threads of the main body squeezed and meshed with each other, causing the bolts to break.
[0004] The loosely connected bolt threads are greatly deformed by wear. The internal threads of the main body are deformed into a trapezoidal shape from the deformation point of the thread depth to the outermost part, and the internal thread hole opposite the main body is deformed into an irregular elliptical shape, which is longer in the top and bottom and shorter in the left and right. The walking mechanism through hole and the internal thread of the main body are coaxially radially deformed into a trapezoidal shape with a smaller inside and a larger outside. When the walking mechanism through hole is deformed into an irregular elliptical shape, the inner wall of the through hole is obviously screwed by the bolt.
[0005] The bolt locking method of the prior art is to use steel wire locking, that is, to use steel wire to pass through the nut through hole of the bolt; due to the extremely harsh working conditions underground in coal mines, the bottom plate is soft, and there is often a lot of water accumulation, which causes the walking machine to be in muddy water for a long time, which will cause the steel wire to corrode and lose its anti-loosening performance. The walking part is subjected to the reaction force, overturning moment and dynamic load of the cutting mechanism. Under the action of load changes and impact vibrations, the friction between the threads is unstable and may disappear instantly. If the steel wire locking device fails, it is very easy to cause the connecting rod bolt to loosen. After the bolt is loosened, the walking part is completely immersed in the muddy water, and it cannot tighten the loose bolt in time. After the bolt is loose, it produces mutual friction between it and the threaded rod hole and the web eyelet. Over time, each of them is worn, and the bolt moves in the hole, causing the bolt to break.
[0006] In addition, there is only one vertical positioning key near the shovel end between the tunnel boring machine body and the traveling part. The positioning key bears the load when the tunnel boring machine moves forward and backward. When the tunnel boring machine is excavating the tunnel, the traveling part sometimes leaves the ground under the joint support of the shovel and the rear support. At this time, the bolt bears the downward force generated by the weight of the traveling part itself, causing shear force to be generated in the vertical direction during work. If it is immersed in mud and water, it must overcome the cohesive force of the mud and water, which increases the shear force on the bolt. Utility Model Content
