Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of air supply devices, and in particular to an air supply device for long-distance tunneling. Background Art

[0002] At present, shield tunneling has been widely used in urban rail transit, water, electricity, gas pipelines and other fields. The advantages of shield tunneling are more obvious in the construction of tunnels with a length of more than 750 meters. Therefore, more and more long-distance or ultra-long-distance shield tunnel projects have emerged.

[0003] During shield tunneling, the operating power of a shield machine can reach thousands of kilowatts, releasing enormous amounts of heat. Long tunnels increase frictional resistance to airflow, leading to high temperatures, humidity, and turbid air at the tunnel working surface. This prevents workers from performing their tasks and increases equipment failure rates, severely impacting the safety of construction workers and limiting shield tunneling efficiency. If a fire or a sudden encounter with toxic or hazardous gas formations occurs within the tunnel, the gases will fill the tunnel. Long tunnels hinder escape and can easily lead to accidents.

[0004] Currently, traditional tunnel ventilation in construction mostly uses a ventilation shaft supply and exhaust longitudinal ventilation method. Supply and exhaust shafts are set up approximately 50 meters apart, and jet fans are used to create short-circuit airflow, forming a ventilation system. However, when this method is applied to long-distance or ultra-long-distance shield tunnels, the frequent installation of supply shafts not only greatly increases construction costs but also leads to irrational resource and cost allocation. If the spacing between exhaust and supply shafts is increased, the wind flow and direction cannot be effectively controlled, which greatly reduces the ventilation effect. Moreover, this exhaust method is not effective for air circulation at working surfaces deep within the construction site. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to reduce the ventilation cost of long tunnels and improve ventilation efficiency, the present application provides an air supply device for long-distance tunneling.

[0006] The present application provides an air supply device for long-distance tunneling, which adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A ventilation device for long-distance tunnel excavation includes an exhaust fan located on the ground, an exhaust pipe connected to the exhaust fan and located in the tunnel, and a support assembly supporting the exhaust pipe. The support assembly includes a base, a lower telescopic rod connected to the base, an upper telescopic rod connected to the lower telescopic rod, and a fixing ring fixedly connected to the top end of the upper telescopic rod.

The upper and lower telescopic rods are fixed by bolts, and the fixing ring is connected to the exhaust pipe.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the present application uses an exhaust fan, an exhaust pipe and a support assembly in combination, aligns the exhaust pipe opening with the position where air needs to be extracted, turns on the exhaust fan, and thereby discharges the polluted air that needs to be replaced from the exhaust duct relatively close to the construction work surface, greatly reducing the circulation distance of the polluted air. In addition, the present application is provided with an exhaust pipe, which effectively controls the flow direction and flow rate of the polluted air, and achieves a better ventilation effect.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the base is fixed, which limits the rotation of the support assembly. The present application restores the function of the support assembly to rotate left and right by setting a second groove and allowing the lower telescopic rod to rotate in the second groove. The present application also sets a circle of rubber ring at the bottom of the lower telescopic rod, and limits the movement of the rubber ring through the annular groove, thereby reducing the possibility of the lower telescopic rod detaching from the second groove and increasing the stability of the lower telescopic rod in the second groove.

[0014] Optionally, the support components are arranged into multiple groups, and the exhaust pipes are arranged into multiple groups accordingly. One end of the fixing ring on the support component at the air suction port is clamped with the exhaust pipe, and the other end is clamped with an air expansion nozzle.

[0016] Optionally, a fan motor assembly is also fixedly installed in the fixing ring.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the combination of multiple fan motor assemblies and exhaust fans further improves the exhaust efficiency.

[0018] Optionally, the cross section of the rubber ring is semicircular.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the present application sets the cross section of the rubber ring to be semicircular, which facilitates the insertion of the lower telescopic rod into the first groove and the installation of the lower telescopic rod and the base.

[0025] 1. This application uses an exhaust fan, an exhaust pipe, and a support assembly in combination. The exhaust pipe opening is aimed at the location where air needs to be extracted, and the exhaust fan is turned on, thereby discharging the polluted air that needs to be replaced from the exhaust duct relatively close to the construction work surface, greatly reducing the circulation distance of the polluted air. In addition, this application is equipped with an exhaust pipe to effectively control the flow direction and flow rate of the polluted air, and the ventilation effect is better;

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.

[0032] The embodiment of the present application discloses an air supply device for long-distance tunnel excavation.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, an air supply device for long-distance tunnel excavation includes an exhaust fan 1 located on the ground, an exhaust pipe 2 connected to the exhaust fan 1 and located in the tunnel, and a support assembly 3 supporting the exhaust pipe 2. The support assembly 3 is arranged in multiple groups, and the exhaust pipe 2 is arranged in multiple groups accordingly.

[0034] When it is necessary to discharge the polluted air in the tunnel, align the exhaust pipe 2 with the position where air needs to be extracted, turn on the exhaust fan 1, and thus discharge the polluted air that needs to be replaced from the exhaust duct relatively close to the construction work surface, greatly reducing the circulation distance of the polluted air. In addition, the present application is provided with an exhaust pipe 2 to effectively control the flow direction and flow rate of the polluted air, and the ventilation effect is better.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support assembly 3 includes a base 31, a lower telescopic rod 32 connected to the base 31, an upper telescopic rod 33 connected to the lower telescopic rod 32, and a fixing ring 34 fixedly connected to the top of the upper telescopic rod 33. The top of the lower telescopic rod 32 has a first groove 321 defined downwardly, and the upper telescopic rod 33 can move up and down within the first groove 321. The upper and lower telescopic rods 33 and 32 are fixed by bolts. The fixing ring 34 on the support assembly 3 at the air intake is engaged with the outlet of the exhaust pipe 2 at one end and with the air diffuser 4 at the other end. The fixing ring 34 on each of the remaining support assemblies 3 is engaged with two adjacent exhaust pipes 2.

[0036] The support assembly 3 is telescopic. According to the height of the tunnel and the position where exhaust is required, the upper telescopic rod 33 can be moved up and down in the first groove 321 in the lower telescopic rod 32, the position of the fixing ring 34 and the exhaust pipe 2 is determined, and then the upper telescopic rod 33 and the lower telescopic rod 32 are fixed with bolts to complete the adjustment process; the support assembly 3 in this application occupies a small area, can be extended and retracted up and down, can be twisted left and right, is easy to move, and is flexible to use on site; this application sets up multiple groups of support assemblies 3 and multiple groups of exhaust pipes 2 for use in combination, so that the air supply device is suitable for tunnels of different lengths, thereby improving the applicability of the air supply device.

[0037] The exhaust pipe 2 is a plastic telescopic pipe. The plastic is light and durable. The exhaust pipe 2 is telescopic and can be easily adapted to tunnels of different lengths.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a fixing nail 311 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the base 31, and a circle of rubber ring 322 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower telescopic rod 32. The cross-section of the rubber ring 322 is semicircular. A second groove 312 is provided on the base 31 to accommodate the bottom of the lower telescopic rod 32. A circle of annular groove 313 capable of accommodating the rubber ring 322 is provided on the vertical side wall of the second groove 312. The rubber ring 322 is tightly abutted against the annular groove 313. When a certain degree of external force is applied to the bottom of the lower telescopic rod 32, the lower telescopic rod 32 can rotate in the second groove 312.

[0039] The support assembly 3 can rotate left and right, making it convenient for the air diffuser 4 to be aligned with the location where dust is generated, thereby facilitating the discharge of polluted air, and limiting the movement of the rubber ring 322 through the annular groove 313, thereby reducing the possibility of the lower telescopic rod 32 detaching from the second groove 312, and increasing the stability of the lower telescopic rod 32 in the second groove 312.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a fan motor assembly 5 is also fixedly mounted within the fixing ring 34. The combination of multiple fan motor assemblies 5 and the exhaust fan 1 further improves exhaust efficiency. A dust filter assembly (not shown) is fixedly mounted within the exhaust fan 1. This filter absorbs and filters most of the dust in the polluted air, reducing air pollution.

[0041] The implementation principle of an air supply device for a long-distance tunnel excavation in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: according to the height of the tunnel and the position where exhaust is required, the upper telescopic rod 33 is moved up and down in the first groove 321 in the lower telescopic rod 32, the position of the fixing ring 34 and the exhaust pipe 2 is determined, and then the upper telescopic rod 33 and the lower telescopic rod 32 are fixed with bolts to complete the adjustment process, and the exhaust fan 1 and the fan motor assembly 5 are turned on to discharge the polluted air that needs to be replaced from the exhaust duct relatively close to the construction work surface.

[0042] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application.
