Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tunnel boring, in particular to a slag cleaning device and an open tunnel boring machine containing the slag cleaning device. Background Art
[0002] Open-type rock tunnel boring machines (TBMs) are widely used in tunnel construction, offering high efficiency, environmental friendliness, and safety. Because the surrounding rock behind the shield of an open TBM is exposed, when the TBM passes through unfavorable geological conditions such as fractured zones, the surrounding rock behind the shield is easily broken, causing a large amount of debris to fall off. This accumulation of debris at the bottom of the main beam can hinder the TBM's progress if not promptly cleared.
[0003] Currently, the common method for removing accumulated slag from the bottom of the main beam is to manually shovel the slag and then use a bucket to transport it outside the tunnel. A few methods use excavator arms and small belt conveyors. Other methods involve lifting the slag bucket using a lifting cylinder and pulley combination, then automatically tipping the slag onto a belt conveyor using a tilting cylinder. Using a bucket to transport the slag outside the tunnel is labor-intensive and inefficient. Using an excavator arm and a small belt conveyor requires a large space and is unsuitable for small and medium-diameter tunnel boring machines. Lifting the slag bucket using a lifting cylinder and pulley, and tipping the slag onto a belt conveyor using a tilting cylinder, is complex and expensive.

Preferably, the rails 3.2 are grooved, and the rollers 2.2 are embedded in and rollable within the rails 3.2. The slag hopper assembly 4 is mounted on the frame 2.1. In this embodiment, the frame 2.1 is L-shaped, and the slag hopper assembly 4 is fixed to the frame 2.1 by bolts.
[0051] Preferably, see Figure 2 A limiting device 3.4 is provided at both ends of the track 3.2, and the limiting device 3.4 is used to limit the travel of the lifting platform 2 on the track 3.2 of the bracket 3 to prevent the lifting platform 2 from sliding out of the track 3.2; preferably, the limiting device 3.4 adopts a limiting block.
[0052] See also Figure 1The driving device 5 includes a winch 5.1 and a wire rope 5.2. The winch 5.1 is fixed on the driving device mounting seat 3.3. One end of the wire rope 5.2 is connected to the winch 5.1, and the other end of the wire rope 5.2 is connected to the frame 2.1 of the lifting platform 2. When the winch 5.1 rotates, the lifting platform 2 is driven to slide up and down in the track 3.2 through the wire rope 5.2, and the slag bucket assembly 4 fixed on the lifting platform 2 rises and falls synchronously.
[0053] In this embodiment, Figure 4 and Figure 5 The slag hopper assembly 4 includes a slag hopper 4.1, a slag discharge door 4.2 is provided on the side of the slag hopper 4.1, and the slag discharge door 4.2 is hinged to the slag hopper 4.1; a slag discharge door opening and closing device 4.3 is provided on the slag hopper 4.1, and the slag discharge door opening and closing device 4.3 is used to realize the opening and closing of the slag discharge door 4.2. Preferably, the slag discharge door opening and closing device 4.3 includes a handle and a stopper, and the stopper is rotatably connected to the slag hopper 4.1. The handle is connected to the stopper. Turning the handle drives the stopper to rotate, and the stopper presses the slag discharge door 4.2 to achieve the locking and closing of the slag discharge door 4.2; when the slag discharge door 4.2 needs to be opened, the handle is turned in the opposite direction to drive the stopper to rotate, and the stopper moves away from the slag discharge door 4.2, thereby unlocking and opening the slag discharge door 4.2. In this embodiment, the slag discharge door opening and closing device 4.3 is provided on the left and right sides of the slag discharge door 4.2.
[0054] In this embodiment, the slag discharge door 4.2 includes an upper slag discharge door 4.2.1 and a lower slag discharge door 4.2.2. The upper portion of the upper slag discharge door 4.2.1 is connected to the upper portion of the side of the slag hopper 4.1 by a pin shaft, and the upper slag discharge door 4.2.1 can be turned up and down; the lower portion of the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 is connected to the lower portion of the side of the slag hopper 4.1 by a pin shaft, and the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 can be turned up and down. Preferably, the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 is provided with a A lower slag discharge door limit block 4.4 is provided, which is used to limit the opening angle of the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2. When the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 is opened to be coplanar with the bottom of the slag cleaning hopper 4.1, the lower slag discharge door limit block 4.4 abuts against the bottom of the slag cleaning hopper 4.1 to prevent the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 from continuing to flip down and open. The lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 is coplanar with the bottom of the slag cleaning hopper 4.1, so that the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 plays a guiding role for the slag.
[0055] In this embodiment, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The bottom of the slag cleaning bucket 4.1 is an inclined surface, and the inclination angle of the inclined surface is greater than the friction angle of the slag soil, so that the slag and stone can slide out of the slag cleaning bucket 4.1 smoothly.
[0056] In this embodiment, see Figure 6The slag guiding assembly 7 includes a slag dropping platform 7.1 and a slag guiding trough 7.2. The slag dropping platform 7.1 is arranged on the rear supporting trailer 6. The slag dropping platform 7.1 is provided with grid holes for filtering the slag soil poured out of the slag cleaning bucket 4.1, and can filter out slag soil that is too large in size; the slag guiding trough 7.2 is arranged below the slag dropping platform 7.1. The output end of the slag guiding trough 7.2 corresponds to the belt conveyor 8. The slag soil filtered by the slag dropping platform 7.1 falls into the slag guiding trough 7.2, is introduced into the belt conveyor 8 through the slag guiding trough 7.2, and is transported to the outside of the tunnel.
[0057] During specific use, in the area between the rear supporting trailer 6 and the main beam 9, the construction workers shovel the slag into the slag bucket 4.1, start the winch 5.1 to drive the slag cleaning assembly 4 to rise along the track 3.2, and as the slag bucket 4.1 moves to the designated position, the slag discharge door opening and closing device 4.3 is opened, the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 is opened, and the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 is kept in contact with the bottom of the slag discharge bucket 4.1 through the lower slag discharge door limit block 4.4 on the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2. Utilizing the slope of the bottom of the slag hopper 4.1 (the slope is greater than the friction angle of the slag), the slag slides down the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 onto the slag discharge platform 7.1. After being filtered by the slag discharge platform 7.1, it flows through the slag guide chute 7.2 into the belt conveyor 8 and is ultimately transported outside the tunnel, completing the slag cleaning process. After the slag hopper 4.1 has finished unloading the slag, the lower slag discharge door 4.2.2 is closed, and the winch 5.1 is activated to move the slag hopper 4.1 downward to the tunnel bottom for the next round of slag cleaning. If the slag becomes stuck or the slag flow rate is too slow during unloading, the upper slag discharge door 4.2.1 can be opened to increase the unloading speed.
[0058] The slag cleaning device provided by the utility model has a compact structure, can be arranged in a small-diameter roadheader, and has strong applicability; it has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and has a low cost.
