Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of tunnel boring equipment, and particularly relates to a slag discharging system and a tunneling machine. Background Art

[0002] Generally, the soil excavated by the cutter head of a tunneling machine is first conveyed to a belt conveyor by a screw conveyor, then transferred to the end of the rear support system by the belt conveyor, and finally transported out of the tunnel by a trolley. When the space in the tunnel is limited, it is impossible to use a transport trolley to transport the slag, and it is also difficult to install a belt conveyor, making it difficult to convey the muck.

[0003] The existing Chinese utility model patent with the authorization announcement number CN209354155U discloses a slag discharging system for a new type of shield machine, which solves the problem of difficult slag discharging in a narrow tunnel space. The slag discharging system of the shield machine includes a stirring device, a vacuum slag suction device, and a modifier adding device. The stirring device includes a stirring tank body and a spiral blade horizontally arranged in the stirring tank body. After the screw conveyor of the shield machine discharges the muck into the stirring tank body, it is transferred to the other end of the stirring tank body by the spiral blade. An outlet for discharging slag connected to the vacuum slag suction device is arranged at the bottom of this end of the stirring tank body, so that the muck in the stirring tank body can be sucked out by the vacuum slag suction device.

[0004] The slag discharging system of the shield machine has the following problems in the process of use: First, since the slag outlet is arranged at the bottom of the stirring tank body (i.e., the transition box), the muck is very easy to bury the slag outlet. When the discharged slag is clay with poor fluidity, it is difficult for the outside air to enter the vacuum slag suction device together with the clay from the slag outlet, so the slag outlet is easily blocked by the clay, resulting in equipment shutdown; Second, after the slag outlet is blocked, the slag outlet and the area above it are buried by clay, and it is difficult for the slag discharging system to dredge itself, seriously affecting the construction efficiency; In addition, when encountering a water-rich stratum, the slag discharging system of the shield machine will discharge the mixture of slag and water out of the tunnel, and the water-rich muck (or slag mud) cannot be directly transported away by the slag truck, so it is necessary to add an artificial sedimentation tank or screening equipment outside the tunnel to separate the slag and water, resulting in low construction efficiency and high construction cost. Summary of the Utility Model

[0039] The following further describes the present utility model in detail with reference to the embodiments.

[0040] To solve the problems in the prior art, the basic concept of the present utility model is to prevent slag discharge by upward suction, thereby avoiding the slag outlet being buried by muck and preventing the slag outlet from being blocked.

[0041] Specific Embodiment 1 of the roadheader provided by the present utility model:

[0042] A roadheader, see the attached Figure 1, including a main machine part and a slag discharging system. The main machine part includes a cutter head 1, a shield body 2 and a screw conveyor 3. The structure of the main machine part is the same as that of the prior art and will not be elaborated here.

[0043] The slag discharging system includes a transition box 4, a screw slag conveying device, a vacuum slag suction device and a sewage collection device.

[0044] The top of the transition box 4 is an open structure, and this open structure is a slag receiving port for receiving the muck discharged from the screw conveyor 3. One side wall of the transition box 4 is an inclined wall, and this inclined wall is located below the outlet of the screw conveyor 3, so that the muck in the transition box 4 converges towards the bottom of the transition box 4.

[0045] The screw slag conveying device includes a screw blade 5, a driving structure for driving the rotation of the screw blade 5, and a cylindrical housing 6 sleeved outside the screw blade 5. The screw blade 5 is vertically installed in the transition box 4, and the lower end of the screw blade 5 is located at the bottom of the transition box 4. The driving structure is located below the transition box 4, specifically a driving motor 7. In other embodiments, the driving structure can also be a hydraulic motor. The housing 6 is fixedly connected to the non-inclined side wall of the transition box 4. The lower end of the housing 6 is provided with a slag inlet 8 communicating with the transition box 4, and the upper end of the housing 6 is provided with a slag outlet 9 connected to the inlet of the vacuum slag suction device. The screw slag conveying device can convey the muck converged at the bottom in the transition box 4 upwards.

[0046] The vacuum slag suction device includes a slag discharging pipeline 10. One end of the slag discharging pipeline 10 is communicated with the slag outlet 9 and this end is the inlet of the vacuum slag suction device. The other end of the slag discharging pipeline 10 is communicated with the atmosphere. A storage slag tank 11 and a vacuum pump 12 are sequentially arranged on the slag discharging pipeline 10 along the slag discharging direction. The vacuum pump 12 is used to evacuate the storage slag tank 11 to make the inside of the storage slag tank 11 in a negative pressure state, so that the muck at the slag outlet 9 of the screw slag conveying device is sucked into the slag removal tank. After the storage slag tank 11 is filled, the storage slag tank 11 is opened, and a transport vehicle is used to transfer the muck away. Both the storage slag tank 11 and the vacuum pump 12 are arranged on the ground, so they do not occupy the space in the tunnel and are suitable for tunnel construction with a narrow space.

[0047] The vacuum slag suction device further includes a backflush pipe 13 and a backflush inlet pipe 14. Both the inlet and the outlet of the backflush pipe 13 are connected to the slag discharging pipeline 10. Among them, the inlet of the backflush pipe 13 is located downstream of the vacuum pump 12, and the outlet of the backflush pipe 13 is located upstream of the vacuum pump 12. One end of the backflush inlet pipe 14 is connected to the slag discharging pipeline 10 and the other end is connected to the atmosphere. Specifically, the outlet of the backflush pipe 13 is located upstream of the storage slag tank 11, and the backflush inlet pipe 14 is connected to the storage slag tank 11.

[0048] A first switching valve 15 and a second switching valve 16 are respectively installed on the backflush pipe 13 and the backflush inlet pipe 14. A third switching valve 17 is arranged at the end of the slag discharge pipeline 10 at a position downstream of the inlet of the backflush pipe 13. A fourth switching valve 18 is arranged on the slag discharge pipeline 10 between the outlet of the backflush pipe 13 and the slag storage tank 11. The above valves are all used to switch the vacuum slag suction device between two working states.

[0049] In the normal working state of the vacuum slag suction device, the first switching valve 15 on the backflush pipe 13 and the second switching valve 16 on the backflush inlet pipe 14 are in the closed state, and the third switching valve 17 and the fourth switching valve 18 on the slag discharge pipeline 10 are in the open state. The slag discharge pipeline 10 can normally suck the muck into the slag storage tank 11. When the slag outlet 9 of the screw slag conveying device is blocked, the third switching valve 17 and the fourth switching valve 18 on the slag discharge pipeline 10 can be closed, and the valves on the backflush pipe 13 and the backflush inlet pipe 14 can be opened. At this time, the backflush inlet pipe 14 can provide air intake for the vacuum pump 12, and the compressed gas pumped out by the vacuum pump 12 flows reversely into the slag discharge pipeline 10 through the backflush pipe 13, and finally the muck blocked in the slag outlet 9 of the screw slag conveying device is blown out by air pressure to achieve self-unblocking.

[0050] Before backflushing, it is also necessary to first reverse the spiral blade 5 of the screw slag conveying device to discharge the muck in the screw slag conveying device downward, so that a larger space is formed in the upper part of the screw slag conveying device, that is, below the slag outlet 9 of the screw slag conveying device, so as to facilitate the muck blocked in the slag outlet 9 to be blown out. Compared with the prior art, since the slag outlet 9 is arranged at the top of the screw slag conveying device, the blown-out muck will fall downward and will not bury the slag outlet 9 again, and the dredging effect is better.

[0051] The sewage collection device includes a sewage tank 19 and a water pump 20, and the sewage tank 19 and the water pump 20 are arranged in the tunnel. A sewage discharge port 21 is arranged at the bottom of the transition tank 4, and a sewage inlet 22 is arranged at the upper part of the sewage tank 19. The sewage discharge port 21 of the transition tank 4 is connected to the inlet of the water pump 20 through a pipeline, and the outlet of the water pump 20 is connected to the sewage inlet 22 of the sewage tank 19 through a pipeline. A water outlet 23 is arranged at the lower part of the sewage tank 19, and a water inlet 24 is arranged at the upper part of the housing 6. The water outlet 23 of the sewage tank 19 is connected to the inlet of the water pump 20 through a pipeline, and the water inlet 24 of the housing 6 is connected to the outlet of the water pump 20 through a pipeline. A first cut-off valve 25 is arranged on the pipeline between the outlet of the water pump 20 and the water inlet 24 of the housing 6, a second cut-off valve 26 is arranged on the pipeline between the inlet of the water pump 20 and the water outlet 23 of the sewage tank 19, a third cut-off valve 27 is arranged on the pipeline between the outlet of the water pump 20 and the sewage inlet 22 of the sewage tank 19, and a fourth cut-off valve 28 is arranged on the pipeline between the inlet of the water pump 20 and the sewage discharge port 21 of the transition tank 4.

[0052] When the water content of the slag discharged from the screw conveyor 3 is relatively high, a slag-water mixture will be formed in the transition box 4. When the screw slag conveying device rotates forward, the solid slag in the slag-water mixture can be conveyed upward, and the sewage will flow to the bottom of the transition box 4 naturally under the action of gravity. At this time, the first cut-off valve 25 and the second cut-off valve 26 are closed, and at the same time, the third cut-off valve 27 and the fourth cut-off valve 28 are opened. The sewage in the transition box 4 is pumped by the water pump 20 into the sewage tank 19 to achieve slag-water separation, eliminating the need to set up a slag-water separation device outside the tunnel, which is conducive to improving the construction efficiency.

[0053] When the slag discharging system temporarily stops discharging slag, the first cut-off valve 25 and the second cut-off valve 26 are opened, and the third cut-off valve 27 and the fourth cut-off valve 28 are closed. At this time, the water in the sewage tank 19 is pumped by the water pump 20 into the screw slag conveying device, and at the same time, the spiral blades 5 of the screw slag conveying device are reversed. On the one hand, this can wash the spiral blades 5, and on the other hand, it can dilute and agitate the muck in the transition box 4 to prevent the muck from caking in the transition box 4.

[0054] When the water content of the muck is too low and its fluidity becomes poor, the water in the sewage tank 19 can also be pumped into the screw slag conveying device to improve the muck, enhancing its fluidity. In other embodiments, the water inlet 24 can also be provided on the box wall of the transition box 4, so that the water in the sewage tank 19 can be directly pumped into the transition box 4 by the water pump 20. The sewage tank 19 is also provided with an interface for supplementing water inward and an interface for discharging excess water, which are not shown in the drawings.

[0055] A drain port is provided on the upper side wall of the housing 6 of the screw slag conveying device. The drain port is connected to a drain pipe 29, and the end of the drain pipe 29 extends into the transition box 4. A drain switch valve 30 is installed on the drain pipe 29. When the water content of the muck is relatively high, or the rotation speed of the spiral blades 5 of the screw slag conveying device is relatively fast, causing the water in the muck to be brought to the upper end of the screw slag conveying device, the drain switch valve 30 can also be opened to enable the water to drain from the drain port into the transition box 4, improving the slag-water separation effect.

[0056] An air inlet is also provided on the upper side wall of the housing 6 of the spiral slag conveying device. The air inlet is connected to an air inlet conduit 31, and an air inlet switch valve 32 is provided on the air inlet conduit 31. During the normal slag discharging process, the vacuum slag suction device conveys the muck by suction. If the slag outlet 9 and the slag discharging pipeline 10 are filled with muck, it is very easy to cause blockage. Therefore, it is necessary to suck in a part of air during the slag suction process so that the slag discharging pipeline 10 is in a state of a mixture of muck and air, avoiding the phenomenon of blockage. If the muck is relatively loose, the sucked air can be the air in the transition box 4, and this part of the air flows upward from the inlet of the spiral conveying device to reach the slag outlet 9. If the muck in the spiral conveying device is dense and the air cannot flow upward, the air inlet switch valve 32 can be opened to send air in from the air inlet to ensure smooth slag discharging.

[0057] Both the drain outlet and the air inlet can be determined whether to be provided according to the actual working conditions.

[0058] The air inlet switch valve 32 can be an ordinary switch valve or a one-way valve. When the water content of the muck is relatively large and the drain switch valve 30 needs to be opened, the water can be discharged from the drain outlet. At this time, if the air inlet switch valve 32 is a one-way valve, it can ensure one-way air intake and prevent water drainage.

[0059] An isolation valve 33 is provided on the slag discharging pipeline 10 between the slag outlet 9 of the housing 6 and the outlet of the backwashing pipe 13 to cut off the connection between the vacuum slag suction device and the spiral conveying device when the slag discharging system stops, avoiding unexpected situations.

[0060] Each valve in this embodiment can be a manual valve or a solenoid valve. In other embodiments of this embodiment, the above valves can be changed according to the actual situation. For example, the first cut-off valve 25 and the third cut-off valve 27 are replaced with two-way three-way valves. Specifically, the inlet of the two-way three-way valve is connected to the outlet of the water pump 20, and the two outlets of the two-way three-way valve are respectively connected to the sewage inlet 22 of the sewage tank 19 and the water inlet 24 of the housing 6 through pipelines. In this way, the functions of the original first cut-off valve 25 and the third cut-off valve 27 can also be achieved by using one two-way three-way valve. Similarly, the second cut-off valve 26 and the fourth cut-off valve 28 can also be replaced with two-way three-way valves, which will not be elaborated here.

[0061] Specific embodiment 2 of the roadheader provided by the present utility model:

[0062] This embodiment is based on embodiment 1.

[0063] In this embodiment, valves are also provided on both the sewage discharge and water injection routes to facilitate connecting or closing the corresponding routes as needed.

[0069] This embodiment is applicable to the working conditions with less water content in the muck. In this kind of working condition, the slag-free system in this embodiment is simpler and more flexible than that in Embodiment 1.

[0070] Specific Embodiment 5 of the roadheader provided by the present utility model:

[0071] This embodiment is based on Embodiment 1. The difference from Embodiment 1 is that, referring to the appendix Figure 5 , in this embodiment, the backflush pipe and the backflush air inlet pipe are not provided. The vacuum pump 12 is only used for sucking and discharging slag.

The slag storage tank 11 and the vacuum pump 12 are arranged on the suction branch 35. A backflush air pump 37 is arranged on the backflush branch 36. The ends of both the backflush branch 36 and the suction branch 35 are communicated with the atmosphere.

[0073] Valves are arranged on both the suction branch 35 and the backflush branch 36 to control the on-off of the two branches. When discharging slag normally, the backflush branch 36 is in the closed state and the suction branch 35 is in the open state; after the slag outlet 9 is blocked, the suction branch 35 is closed and the backflush branch 36 is opened for backflush operation.

[0074] Specific Embodiment 6 of the roadheader provided by the present utility model:

[0075] This embodiment is based on Embodiment 1. The difference from Embodiment 1 is that, referring to the appendix Figure 6, in this embodiment, the backflush pipe and the backflush intake pipe are not provided.

[0076] Since the slag discharge port 9 is arranged at the upper end of the spiral slag conveying device, the slag discharge port 9 is not easily blocked. If there is less muck with poor fluidity in the construction stratum, the roadheader provided by this embodiment can also smoothly carry out the slag discharge operation, and the structure is simpler.
