Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a device for identifying the physical state of slurry inside a pipeline based on an acoustic method, and belongs to the technical field of slurry solidification state detection. Background Art
[0002] With socioeconomic development, my country's urbanization is accelerating, and transportation demand is increasing. As a key component of urban rail transit, subways can effectively alleviate traffic pressure. Shield tunneling is a common method for constructing subway tunnels. This method operates underground, has the advantages of not impacting surface traffic, low noise levels, and high efficiency. However, during shield tunneling, as the shield machine advances, gaps between the segments and the soil form, causing surface deformation, ground loss, and tunnel subsidence. Therefore, grouting behind the segments is necessary to fill these gaps and compensate for ground loss. However, some shield tunnels are large and long, and the slurry preparation area is located far from the shield machine. This can cause the physical state of the slurry inside the slurry pipeline to change during transportation. Before reaching the grouting point, the slurry can solidify and clog the pipeline, compromising the grouting effect and even causing the grouting pipe to burst, seriously impacting construction quality and progress.
[0003] Since the slurry is transported inside the pipeline, when a blockage occurs, it is impossible to directly determine the location of the blockage from the outside. The current solution is to dismantle each section of the pipeline for inspection, identify the blocked slurry pipe, clean it, and then reinstall it to resume grouting. This process is complex, time-consuming, and labor-intensive, significantly affecting the progress and quality of the project. Utility Model Content
