Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sealing device technology, and in particular to a shield tail sealing device for submarine shield tunnels. Background Technology
[0002] During the construction of cross-sea shield tunnels, the complex hydrogeological conditions of the strata traversed by the tunnel, high water and soil pressure, and a large soil permeability coefficient pose a significant risk of segment leakage, making the task of sealing and preventing leakage of the shield tunnel extremely challenging. Generally, shield tunnel leakage prevention methods are relatively simple and rely heavily on tail sealing brushes and grouting layers. The waterproofing design of the segment gaps is insufficient, and there is a lack of design and devices to address sudden leakage. Once the grouting layer leaks, the tunnel's seepage prevention effect is difficult to guarantee, seriously affecting the tunnel's service life and safety.
[0003] The existing technology CN208502770U discloses a shield tail sealing device for submarine shield tunnels, including an arc-shaped plate, jacks, hydraulic cylinders, a shield body, a panel, a shield shell, a shield tail sealing brush, tunnel segments, and a pad. The shield body is installed on the working side of the panel. One end of the hydraulic cylinder is welded to the shield body, and the other end is fixedly connected to the jack. The arc-shaped plate is set between the jack and the tunnel segment, and the arc-shaped plate is arranged in a ring around the shield's central axis with several arc-shaped plates tightly connected to each other. The number of arc-shaped plates is the same as the number of jacks. The shield tail brush is installed on the shield shell, and the brush tail is distributed in the gap between the shield shell and the tunnel segment, making interference contact with the tunnel segment. The shield shell is sealed to the hydraulic cylinder through the pad. This utility model solves the problem of insufficient sealing measures between tunnel segments that is common in existing shield tunnel construction, thereby effectively improving the seepage resistance of the tunnel segment joints and ensuring construction safety.
[0004] However, with the above method, the tail brush is under constant pressure on the outside of the tunnel segment and moves relative to the tunnel segment, so the tail brush is often damaged. The existing tail sealing device of the submarine shield tunnel requires the removal of the tunnel segment when replacing the tail brush, which is inconvenient and time-consuming. Utility Model Content

Multiple connecting components are provided, each of which is disposed between two adjacent tail brushes. The hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the shield shell and located on the side of the shield shell. The docking component is disposed on the side of the hydraulic cylinder.

[0012] This utility model discloses a tail seal device for a submarine shield tunnel. When installing the tail brush, one end of a connecting component is connected to a right-hand threaded seat on one tail brush, and the other end is connected to a left-hand threaded seat on another tail brush. This process is repeated to sequentially connect multiple tail brushes using multiple connecting components. Then, a docking component connects a hydraulic cylinder to the right-hand threaded seat on the tail brush. By controlling the extension of the hydraulic cylinder's output rod, multiple tail brushes are pushed between the shield shell and the tunnel lining segments. The slider is in close contact with the shield shell, and the shield...

Each row of tail brushes is arranged in a circle, and the spaces between each row are filled with tail grease, thereby sealing the gap between the shield shell and the tube segment. When the tail brush needs to be replaced, the output rod of the hydraulic cylinder is retracted to remove the tail brush from between the shield shell and the tube segment, and then the tail brush can be replaced. In this way, the tail brush can be easily installed and removed, making it easier to replace the tail brush, saving time and effort. Attached Figure Description
