Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tunnel construction support structures, and specifically relates to a tunnel rock burst prevention support structure, which is especially suitable for rock burst prevention in deep-buried tunnels with high ground stress. Background Art
[0002] When carrying out deep engineering construction, there are often deep high-energy dynamic disasters such as rock bursts, plate cracks, gas explosions, and earthquakes, which seriously threaten the safety and stability of deep engineering construction. Among them, rock burst is the most prominent dynamic disaster in deep rock mass and has become one of the world's difficult problems in the field of underground engineering. The mechanical mechanism of rock burst is very complex. During the occurrence process, a large amount of elastic strain energy accumulated in the rock mass will be released, causing rock blocks to fly out at high speed, and generating shock waves and vibrations, causing structural damage and casualties, seriously threatening the safety and stability of deep engineering construction. Traditional underground engineering support structures have many problems in the prevention and control of rock burst disasters. The current deep-buried tunnel rock burst protection system usually relies on rigid support structures and adopts traditional support such as steel arch frames and reinforced concrete to resist rock burst disasters (see the Chinese patent document with publication number CN205260055U). However, the huge energy generated by strong rock bursts is often difficult for traditional support systems to protect and resist. Furthermore, rigid support structures severely restrict the deformation of deep rock, leading to a sharp increase in elastic strain energy within the rock mass. This effectively fails to reduce the risk of rockbursts, nor effectively control the stability of the surrounding rock mass. In fact, it can even exacerbate rockburst intensity, rendering effective protection impossible. Therefore, innovative support structures are needed to effectively address rockburst hazards in deep caverns with high geostress.
[0003] Chinese patent publication CN118257388A discloses a subway station anti-collision load-bearing column with a negative Poisson's ratio lattice structure and its operation method. The patent's solution primarily uses industrial pure aluminum or aluminum alloy to combine the negative Poisson's ratio lattice structure with a concrete core, creating an anti-collision outer layer that dynamically cushions and gradually offsets impact forces. This solution primarily ensures that the column does not collapse if a subway train crashes. However, its structural form and material strength do not meet the design requirements for deep tunnels with high ground stresses, making it unsuitable for use in support systems within rockburst areas of deep tunnels.
[0004] Chinese patent publication CN114536888A discloses a composite protective structure with penetration resistance and ballistic deflection, and its preparation method. The solution described in this patent document folds thin steel plates into a negative Poisson's ratio cellular structure, which is then filled with a polyurea layer and self-compacting concrete to achieve a composite protective structure with penetration resistance and ballistic deflection. This solution is capable of withstanding high-velocity impacts, but the thin steel plates cannot withstand the high geostress requirements of deep tunnels. The filled polyurea layer and self-compacting concrete lack the ability to deform in harmony with the surrounding rock of deep tunnels, making it impossible to effectively control the stability of the high-stress surrounding rock and effectively reduce the risk of rockbursts.
[0005] A Chinese patent document with publication number CN114320391A discloses an integrated anti-impact energy absorption device and method. The solution in this patent document utilizes the shear thickening fluid hardening effect of the anti-impact component and the elastic-plastic deformation of the negative Poisson's ratio structure to absorb energy, thereby improving the support performance and energy absorption and anti-impact performance of the support device. However, this solution is only used as an anti-impact device in hydraulic supports for mine support. It cannot bear the surrounding rock load as a support structure, nor does it have the ability to coordinate deformation with the surrounding rock of deep-buried tunnels, and cannot meet the requirements of deep-buried tunnels to withstand high ground stress. Utility Model Content
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a tunnel rock burst prevention support structure, which can more effectively deal with rock burst disasters in deep-buried caverns with high ground stress.
[0007] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a tunnel rock burst impact support structure, comprising a plurality of support arches arranged at intervals along the length direction of the tunnel, each support arch comprising an inner wing plate, an outer wing plate and a negative Poisson's ratio effect honeycomb sandwich layer, the inner wing plate is in contact with the inner wall of the tunnel and the two are connected and fixed by prestressed anchor rods, the outer wing plate is located on the side of the inner wing plate away from the inner wall of the tunnel, the outer wing plate and the inner wing plate are arranged relative to each other, one side of the negative Poisson's ratio effect honeycomb sandwich layer is fixedly connected to the inner wing plate, and the other side is fixedly connected to the outer wing plate, the negative Poisson's ratio effect honeycomb sandwich layer is composed of a plurality of periodically arranged concave hexagonal honeycomb cells, and the inner hole axis of the concave hexagonal honeycomb cells is consistent with the axial direction of the tunnel.
[0008] A further preferred solution is that multiple layers of concave hexagonal honeycomb cells are arranged along the radial direction of the tunnel, and two adjacent layers of concave hexagonal honeycomb cells are fixedly connected to form a whole; multiple rows of concave hexagonal honeycomb cells are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the tunnel.
[0009] A further preferred solution is that the inner wing panels, the outer wing panels and the negative Poisson's ratio effect honeycomb sandwich layer are all made of steel material and fixed into a whole by welding.
[0010] A further preferred solution is that the supporting arch comprises a plurality of arch units distributed at intervals along the circumferential direction of the inner wall of the tunnel, and two adjacent arch units are welded and fixed.
[0011] A further preferred solution is that the tail end of the prestressed anchor rod is connected and fixed to the inner wing plate via a bolt connection structure.
[0012] A further preferred solution is that a sprayed concrete structural layer is provided on the inner wall of the tunnel in the interval area between two adjacent supporting arches.
[0013] The negative Poisson's ratio honeycomb core layer exhibits significant deformation and load-bearing capacity. Its material, geometry, cell wall and faceplate thickness, and the optimal number of layers and columns for a given protection zone thickness and width can be comprehensively optimized based on the actual rockburst situation. Key parameters such as prestressed anchor length, prestress value, and spacing can be determined based on the rockburst severity in the area. In principle, anchor length should be no less than 3 meters, and prestress should be no less than 60 kN. Prestressed anchors driven into the surrounding rock form an active support system with the support arch, sharing the load with the surrounding rock. The integrated support structure, comprised of the negative Poisson's ratio honeycomb core layer, inner and outer wing panels, and prestressed anchors, is capable of deforming in harmony with the surrounding rock of deep tunnels, meeting the high geostress requirements of deep tunnels. When a rock burst occurs, an axial compression-contraction phenomenon occurs. As the concave hexagonal honeycomb cells diffuse inward, the cell walls gradually contact, the compressive stress increases rapidly and enters the densification zone. A multi-layer non-uniform multi-cellular dense structure is re-formed at the impact position of the negative Poisson's ratio effect honeycomb sandwich layer structure, resulting in an increase in the equivalent elastic modulus of the entire structure, and then a macroscopic negative Poisson's ratio effect is produced, which is mainly manifested in the generation of a stress enhancement zone at the impacted structure position. The closer the structure is to the center of the rock burst impact, the greater the stress enhancement, thereby resisting the rock burst impact and ensuring the safety of the structure and personnel.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. A support arch with a macroscopic negative Poisson's ratio effect and prestressed anchor rods are used as the active support system. Its structural form and material strength can fully meet the design requirements of deep-buried tunnels with high ground stress and can be directly applied to the support system of rock burst sections of deep-buried tunnels.
[0016] 2. Compared with the current rigid support structure of deep-buried tunnels, it has the ability to coordinate deformation with the surrounding rock of deep-buried tunnels. While meeting the requirements of deep-buried tunnels to withstand high ground stress, it effectively reduces the risk of rock bursts.
[0017] 3. When a rock burst occurs, a stress enhancement zone is generated at the impacted structure, and the closer the structure is to the center of the rock burst, the greater the stress enhancement, thereby resisting the rock burst and ensuring the safety of the structure and personnel.
