Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tunnel construction, and in particular relates to a steel arch frame for mechanized tunnel construction. Background Art
[0002] Against the backdrop of the current booming infrastructure development in my country, tunnel projects, as a vital component of the transportation network, are experiencing increasing scale and complexity, placing correspondingly higher demands on construction technology. Steel arches play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of tunnel support structures. This is especially true when the surrounding rock is weak and severely fractured, requiring timely installation as initial support to control deformation and prevent collapse.
[0003] Currently, tunnel construction often involves manually erecting steel arches, and the steel frame structure is designed to accommodate manual installation. However, traditional manual installation relies on a large number of workers, resulting in low efficiency. Furthermore, due to differences in worker skills and experience, as well as the complexity of the site environment, the quality of manually erected steel arches is often difficult to guarantee, resulting in problems such as loose connections and inaccurate positioning. Furthermore, manual installation of steel arches requires work at high altitudes or in confined spaces, making it difficult to guarantee the safety of workers and posing significant safety risks.
[0004] Therefore, how to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology is an urgent problem to be solved in the field of tunnel steel arch construction technology. Utility Model Content

[0164] The mechanized tunnel construction is carried out using the steel arch frame for mechanized tunnel construction. The specific construction method includes the following steps:
[0165] Step (1) is to first prepare for the tunnel outside and determine that the tunnel excavation cycle advance is 3 steel frame spacings; longitudinally connect the upper step steel arch frame section of each cycle, and longitudinally connect the middle step steel arch frame section of each cycle; then transport the connected structure and the lower step steel arch frame section together to the front of the tunnel face and wait for construction;
[0166] Step (2), after excavating a cycle of upper step rock and soil mass and middle step rock and soil mass I, first apply 40mm thick initial sprayed concrete to the upper step and middle step surrounding rock surface, then use the arch frame trolley installation arm to grab and lift the three connected upper step steel arch frame sections to the arch top and the middle step steel arch frame sections to the corresponding positions, and make the first joint to connect the upper step steel arch frame sections and the middle step steel arch frame sections;
[0167] Step (3): excavate the rock mass II on the left side of the lower step, spray 40mm of concrete on the surrounding rock surface on the left side of the lower step, and place the lower step steel arch frame section upright to the installation position; construct a first joint to connect the left middle step steel arch frame section and the left lower step steel arch frame section; construct a second connecting steel bar to connect the left lower step steel arch frame section in one cycle;
[0168] Step (4), constructing a second joint at the arch foot end of the steel arch frame side wall on the left side of the lower step to connect the longitudinally adjacent steel arch frames;
[0169] Step (5): excavate the rock mass III on the right side of the lower step, spray 40mm of concrete on the surrounding rock surface on the right side of the lower step, place the lower step steel arch frame section upright to the installation position, make a first joint to connect the right middle step steel arch frame section and the right lower step steel arch frame section, and make a second connecting steel bar to connect the right lower step steel arch frame section in one cycle;
[0170] Step (6), constructing a second joint at the arch foot end of the side wall of the steel arch frame on the right side of the lower step to connect the longitudinally adjacent steel arch frames;
[0171] Step (7), excavating the rock mass IV in the middle of the lower step, spraying 40 mm of concrete on the rock surface surrounding the bottom side of the lower step inverted arch, placing a circular inverted arch steel arch frame section to the designated position of the inverted arch, and constructing a first joint 2 to connect the lower step steel arch frame section and the inverted arch steel arch frame section;
[0172] Step (8), after checking the quality of steel frame installation, continue with the next cycle of excavation and arch frame installation;
[0173] Preferably, during the construction process, arch monitoring equipment can be arranged at intervals of 10m on the arch to monitor the deformation rate of the tunnel.
[0174] This construction method utilizes a two-step approach for tunnel excavation, increasing the construction step distance to provide ample operating space for the mechanized trolley. To ensure construction safety and structural stability, this method also strengthens the monitoring system during construction and incorporates necessary temporary support measures. The implementation of this construction method not only improves the efficiency of mechanized tunnel construction but also enhances safety and controllability during the construction process.
