TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to an improved technology of placing an advanced geological prediction sensor during the tunneling process of a shield machine, in particular to a sensor mounting assembly applied to advanced geological prediction. BACKGROUND
[0002] Advanced geological prediction is very important for the tunneling of a shield machine. It can detect complex underground geological conditions in advance, avoid sudden water inrush, mud gushing and collapse disasters caused by unfavorable geological structures such as faults and karst caves during construction, and ensure construction safety. At the same time, by understanding geological information in advance, the damage of shield machine cutters due to unexpected hard strata can be prevented, the construction progress can be ensured not to be disturbed by sudden geological problems, and the construction party can also optimize the construction scheme, reduce equipment maintenance cost and additional construction cost for dealing with unfavorable geology.
[0003] Through research, the inventor found that the geological prediction sensor has the following problems when fixed:
[0004] (1) In the past data collection practice, the work of laying sensors often faces many challenges. Traditionally, technicians often use solid glue to paste the sensor for installation. The specific operation is to directly adhere the sensor to the predetermined segment position with solid glue. However, this method has exposed significant problems in practical application. Especially when the laying position is in a cold and humid environment, pollutants such as mud, oil stains and water droplets often fall on the sensor and its fixed area, greatly affecting the adhesion effect of the solid glue. Due to the interference of these unfavorable factors, the sensor often falls off, which not only interrupts the continuity of data collection, but also brings additional burden and inconvenience to subsequent monitoring work.
[0005] (2) During long-term use of solid glue, its residues will gradually penetrate into the surface and gaps of the sensor. These residues are not only difficult to clean thoroughly, but also may cause corrosion or blockage to the precision components of the sensor, thereby seriously affecting the performance and accuracy of the sensor. In some cases, such damage is even irreversible, directly leading to the shortening of the service life of the sensor and the increase of replacement cost.
[0006] (3) The solid glue pasting method also has some other limitations. For example, in scenarios where the sensor position needs to be frequently adjusted or maintained, the firmness of the solid glue becomes an obstacle, making disassembly and reinstallation both time-consuming and laborious. At the same time, the use of solid glue may also introduce additional environmental pollution risks, especially when dealing with waste sensors and solid glue residues, additional environmental protection measures need to be taken to avoid secondary pollution to the environment.

[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0029] In the description of the utility model, it is understood that the terms "front", "back", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the utility model.
[0030] As shown in Figures 1-4 The embodiment discloses a sensor mounting assembly applied to advanced geological prediction, mainly including a sensor body 1, an insert piece 2 and a square ring 3 and the like structure, the sensor body 1 is provided with a square sensor end, the size of the sensor end is accurately designed as 50mm long, 50mm wide and 20mm high, to adapt to the demand of different application scenarios. The square ring 3 is composed of four rectangular side plates connected head to tail, the square ring 3 is used for assembling on the sensor end, a side wall in front of the square ring 3 is machined with an insert hole 4 allowing the insert piece 2 to pass through. The square ring 3 not only provides a clear positioning point for installation, but also provides a stable basis for subsequent embedding of the insert piece 2. Of course, in order to adapt to the size of different pipe piece gaps, the square ring 3 and the subsequent insert piece 2 can also be customized to ensure the best fixing effect.
[0031] A baffle 5 is connected to the inner end of the insert piece 2 in a welded manner, the baffle 5 can be attached to the inner wall of the square ring 3, and the baffle 5 and the insert piece 2 are in T shape. The insert piece 2 can be tightly riveted with the square ring 3 through the baffle 5, not only has sufficient strength and rigidity, can be tightly embedded in the pipe piece gap, prevent the sensor body 1 from moving or loosening in the use process, also because of its good corrosion resistance and wear resistance, ensure the long-term stable operation of the sensor in the humid, muddy and other harsh environments.
[0032] In order to reduce the direct impact of the external environment on the sensor body and further prolong the service life of the sensor, a rubber pad layer is arranged between the baffle 5 and the sensor end, and the rubber pad layer has a certain buffering effect.
[0033] Screw holes are machined on the side plates on the left and right sides of the insert hole 4 respectively, and the screw holes realize the fixation of the square ring 3 and the sensor end through fixing bolts 6. So as to realize that the square ring 3 is tightly connected with the sensor body, and a stable and reliable connection point is formed. This connection mode not only ensures the firmness of the square ring 3, but also provides additional support and protection for the sensor body 1. A guide groove 7 in communication with the insert hole 4 is arranged on the front side of the side plate in front of the square ring 3, and this design makes the installation process of the insert piece 2 extremely simple and efficient. When the insert piece 2 is accurately inserted into the designed guide groove 7 from the inside of the square ring 3, it will tightly cooperate with the internal fixing structure, further enhancing the stability and structural strength of the sensor end.
[0034] Furthermore, the various harsh environments that may be encountered during tunnel excavation, such as high temperature, high pressure, high humidity, and corrosive gases, must be fully considered during installation. These environmental factors will have a significant impact on the performance of insert 2, so the selected materials should have good environmental adaptability and be able to maintain stable performance under extreme conditions.
[0035] Aluminum-magnesium alloy insert 2 is suitable for applications with strict weight requirements, as well as good corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity, providing sufficient strength and stability while reducing weight. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) insert 2 offers excellent insulation and a low coefficient of friction, making it suitable for extremely corrosive environments and maintaining stable performance over long periods. Carbon fiber composite insert 2 is suitable for applications requiring high stress and vibration resistance with strict weight control, providing superior mechanical properties. These insert 2 materials each have their own characteristics and are suitable for different environments and needs; the selection should be based on a careful consideration of the specific project requirements.
[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, taking the installation of sensors on shield tunnel segments as an example, the sensors need to be placed at 2m intervals on both sides of the tunnel, facing the direction of excavation. The first sensor is installed starting from the segment after the segment column is assembled, and the next sensor is installed at 2m intervals. The specific operation steps are as follows: first, insert the insert 2 into the socket 4 from the inside of the square ring 3, and connect the square ring 3 and the insert 2 through the cooperation of the baffle 5. Then, put the square ring 3 on the end of the sensor, and finally insert the insert 2 into the gap of the segment.
[0037] Compared to traditional solid adhesive bonding methods, this method offers greater stability, durability, ease of maintenance, and secure installation: the insert 2 is tightly embedded in the narrow gaps of the tube segment, significantly enhancing the sensor's robustness, providing strong resistance to external interference, and effectively preventing displacement and loosening. Its corrosion and wear resistance ensures long-term stable operation in harsh environments such as dampness, mud, and acid / alkali conditions. The pluggable design facilitates installation and disassembly, simplifying maintenance or replacement, reducing costs, and improving system operating efficiency.
