[0026] The present utility model will be further described below through non-limiting embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0027] As shown in the attached drawings, an automatic strut-changing device for an open-cut tunnel jumbo includes a steel support 2 and connecting ear plates 3. The steel support 2 is made of a steel pipe with a wall thickness of 16 mm. According to the support requirements, the diameter of the steel support 2 is generally φ800 mm or φ609 mm. The steel support 2 includes an intermediate section 2.2, a fixed end 2.1, and a movable end 2.3. The fixed end 2.1 and the movable end 2.3 are respectively connected to both ends of the intermediate section 2.2. Flanges are respectively provided at both ends of the intermediate section 2.2, and flanges are also respectively provided at the connection ends of the fixed end 2.1 and the movable end 2.3 with the intermediate section 2.2. The fixed end 2.1 and the movable end 2.3 are respectively connected to the intermediate section 2.2 through flanges and high-strength bolts. The movable end 2.3 is a telescopic structure, which includes a movable-end steel pipe 2.3.1 and a movable-end support foot 2.3.2. A slideway is formed in the movable-end steel pipe 2.3.1 by welding steel plates. The movable-end support foot 2.3.2 is made by welding steel plates. One end of the movable-end support foot 2.3.2 is slidably arranged in the slideway of the movable-end steel pipe 2.3.1, and the other end of the movable-end support foot 2.3.2 is located outside the movable-end steel pipe 2.3.1. A support plate 2.3.2.1 is welded to the end of the movable-end support foot 2.3.2 located outside. Two hydraulic cylinders 5 are arranged symmetrically between the support plate 2.3.2.1 and the movable-end steel pipe 2.3.1. The connecting ear plates 3 are respectively and correspondingly connected to the bottoms of two upper longitudinal beams 1.1 of the lower gantry of the open-cut tunnel jumbo. The connecting ear plates 3 are made of steel plates with a thickness of 15 mm. Both ends of the steel support 2 are respectively suspended below the upper longitudinal beams 1.1 of the lower gantry of the open-cut tunnel jumbo through the connecting ear plates 3. When the steel support 2 is suspended, steel wires can be respectively arranged at both ends thereof, and the steel wires are connected to the connecting ear plates 3 through pin shafts 4. Alternatively, connecting ears can be respectively welded at both ends of the steel support 2, and the steel support 2 is connected to the connecting ear plates 3 through its connecting ears by means of pin shafts 4. In order to reduce the damage of the steel support to the main structure during the process of applying axial force to the support, rubber pads can be arranged at both ends of the steel support 2, and the thickness of the rubber pads is 15 mm.

[0028] As Figure 11 shown, for facilitating the replacement of steel supports 2 of different specifications and ensuring that the strut change is kept on the design center line, it is preferred that the connecting ear plates 3 are welded and fixed on a connecting plate 7. The connecting plate 7 is 500 mm long and 330 mm wide. The connecting plate 7 is connected to the bottom of the upper longitudinal beam of the lower gantry of the open-cut tunnel jumbo through bolts. When replacing steel supports 2 of different specifications, the position of the center line of the steel support is ensured by replacing the corresponding connecting ear plates of appropriate specifications. The connecting ear plates 3 are fixed on the connecting plate 7, which is convenient for replacement.

[0029] As Figure 10As shown in the figure, to improve the adaptability of the steel support, it is preferred that the intermediate section 2.2 is composed of standard sections 2.2.1 connected together. Flanges are provided at both ends of the standard section 2.2.1, and the standard sections 2.2.1 are connected into one body by bolts. The length of the standard section 2.2.1 can be designed to be different according to needs and assembled and connected for use according to the specific construction conditions on site, which can improve the adaptability of the steel support and increase its turnover utilization rate.

[0030] During the construction using the present utility model, the steel support 2 is reliably connected to the trolley through the connecting ear plate 3, and the preparatory work before the erection of the support is done well. The number of the steel supports 2 is determined according to the design. After the trolley is in place, the steel support 2 starts to work. A certain prestress is applied to the flexible end of the steel support 2 through the hydraulic cylinder 5 provided at the flexible end of the steel support 2. After the prestress is applied in place, the steel wedge block 6 can be placed to fix the flexible end support foot 2.3.2. The side wall is supported by the steel support 2, and then the arch crown structure can be constructed. After the arch crown structure reaches the design strength, the prestress of the steel support is unloaded, and then the support of the upper enclosure structure can be removed.

[0031] The structure of the present utility model is simple, and it can operate synchronously with the trolley system. During operation, the hydraulic cylinder 5 is directly used to apply prestress to the flexible end of the steel support. When not in operation, the support stress is unloaded. The operation is convenient, avoiding the cumbersome construction procedures such as disassembly and installation of the steel support, realizing the convenient lifting and installation of heavy objects in a narrow space, improving the construction efficiency, and ensuring construction safety. The position of the steel support carried by the trolley is consistent with the design requirements, which can avoid affecting the force of the overall structure due to large errors in the support spacing and height, and can improve the construction safety.

[0032] Other parts in this embodiment are all prior arts and will not be elaborated here.
