Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of tunnel engineering, and relates to a pressure-bearing compressible balancing device arranged between an initial support and a secondary lining of a tunnel. BACKGROUND
[0002] In tunnel engineering, different degrees of deformation of surrounding rock lead to damage of lining structures, and tunnel collapse accidents are prone to occur. A buffer layer is often selected to be arranged between the initial support and the secondary lining, and substances such as foamed concrete, polyethylene foam board and rubber sponge are filled in the buffer layer to absorb the deformation of the surrounding rock by compression of the buffer layer itself. However, the thickness of the buffer layer is often relatively large, which leads to an increase in the thickness of the entire lining structure. In addition, a resistance limiter is also selected to be arranged between the initial support and the secondary lining in a tunnel with large deformation of soft rock, so as to resist large deformation of the surrounding rock by the strength and the hollow compressible part of the resistance limiter. However, the strength of the resistance limiter is relatively high, and the elastic limit of the resistance limiter is also relatively high, which may cause damage to the secondary lining structure when resisting the deformation of the surrounding rock. Therefore, the problem of producing a device with an adjustable thickness, a thickness smaller than that of the buffer layer and an elastic limit lower than that of the resistance limiter needs to be solved, so that the thickness of the entire lining of the tunnel can be reduced, and the secondary lining structure can be better protected while absorbing the deformation of the surrounding rock. SUMMARY
[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the present application is to design a pressure-bearing compressible balancing device arranged between an initial support and a secondary lining of a tunnel. The present application is implemented through the following technical scheme:
[0004] The pressure-bearing compressible balancing device is composed of two sliding rail contact plates, two inclined plates, a secondary lining contact plate and two compression springs. The middle part of the sliding rail contact plate is welded with the upper end part of the inclined plate at an angle "α", the two inclined plates are arranged opposite on the secondary lining contact plate, the sliding rail contact plate is parallel to the secondary lining contact plate, the two end supports of the secondary lining contact plate are respectively coincided with the middle supports of the two inclined plates, the compression spring is arranged between the two side supports of the inclined plate, the two ends of the compression spring are respectively in "U" type contact with the inclined plate and the secondary lining contact plate, the connecting bolt is passed through the support and the compression spring, and the nut is fixed at both ends to form the pressure-bearing compressible balancing device. Two "L" type plates are taken, the short edges of the two "L" type plates are coplanar and spaced apart, the holes are equidistantly arranged, and the positioning bolt is passed through the holes to fix the two "L" type plates on the surface of the initial support to form a sliding rail device. The sliding rail contact plates of a plurality of pressure-bearing compressible balancing devices are contacted and slid into the sliding rail device, the secondary lining is formed, and the pressure-bearing compressible balancing device is arranged between the initial support and the secondary lining of the tunnel.
[0005] The materials of the secondary lining contact plate, the inclined plate, the sliding rail contact plate and the compression spring can be selected according to the actual working conditions.
[0006] The welding of the middle part of the sliding rail contact plate with the upper end part of the inclined plate refers to welding the smaller narrow section of the inclined plate with the middle part of the sliding rail contact plate.
[0007] The inclined plate and the slide rail contact plate form an angle α, which ranges from 30° to 60°. The specific angle can be determined within the specified range according to the deformation capacity of the surrounding rock in the actual project. As the angle increases, the deformation capacity of the device increases and the resistance to deformation of the surrounding rock is enhanced, and vice versa.
[0008] The slide rail contact plate is parallel to the secondary lining contact plate, so that the inclined plate and the secondary lining contact plate are also at an angle "α".
[0009] The two inclined plates are placed opposite each other on the secondary lining contact plate, which means that the two inclined plates are placed opposite each other on the same secondary lining contact plate, so that the two inclined plates are at a "180°-2α" angle and the shape is "V".
[0010] The aforementioned hinge is prefabricated and welded to the left and right sides at a distance of 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 from both ends on the long side of the secondary lining contact plate, in the middle of the inclined plate. It has a round hole to allow the connecting bolt to pass through. The connecting bolt passes through the inclined plate, the hinge of the secondary lining contact plate, and the central hole of the compression spring, and is fixed as a whole with a nut.
[0011] The compression spring is placed between the hinges on both sides of the secondary lining contact plate, so that when the connecting bolt passes through the hinge, it can pass smoothly through the compression spring at the same time, so that the compression spring is connected to the slide rail contact plate, the inclined plate, and the secondary lining contact plate as a whole.
[0012] The compression spring has "U" shaped contact with the inclined plate and the second lining contact plate at both ends. When making the compression spring, the number of turns, the ring spacing and the radius are determined according to the actual working conditions. The ends of the compression spring are extended to the contact surface and are at 90° with the contact surface. The curved part is rounded.
[0013] The compression spring is U-shaped and contacts the surface. The spring is U-shaped on the contact surface, which increases the contact area of the spring and makes the force uniform. The contact surface of the slide rail and the inclined plate are subjected to radial surrounding rock pressure, which causes the compression spring to be compressed circumferentially.
[0014] The two "L"-shaped plates have two short sides that are coplanar and spaced apart. The short sides are in contact with the initial support of the tunnel, and the deformation of the surrounding rock can compress the slide rail contact plate, so that 80% to 90% of the area of the slide rail contact plate is exposed to the surrounding rock. The distance between the long sides is 3-5mm wider than the slide rail contact plate. The height of the long side of the "L"-shaped plate is 70% to 80% of the height of the pressure-bearing retractable device.
[0015] The aforementioned equidistant openings on the short side, through which positioning bolts are inserted and fixed to the surface of the tunnel's initial support, are designed to ensure that the slide rail device is fixed to the inner surface of the tunnel's initial support. Furthermore, the positioning bolts are seamlessly fixed to the short side of the "L"-shaped plate of the slide rail device, fully entering the surface of the short side of the "L"-shaped plate, allowing the slide rail contact plate to move smoothly within the slide rail device. Multiple slide rail devices can be arranged along the tunnel's circumference, either closely spaced in pairs or evenly spaced. They can also be arranged at key locations for surrounding rock deformation, such as the arch crown, arch shoulder, arch waist, arch foot, and arch bottom.
[0016] The sliding contact plates of the multiple pressure-bearing retractable balancing devices slide into the sliding rail device, leaving a 3-5mm gap on both sides of the sliding rail device to ensure that the pressure-bearing retractable balancing devices can move smoothly within the sliding rail device. The sliding rails are installed sequentially along the circumferential direction, and the multiple pressure-bearing retractable balancing devices are slid into the sliding rail device in sequence, so that the pressure-bearing retractable balancing devices are evenly arranged in the tunnel along the axial and circumferential directions.
[0017] The secondary lining is constructed by placing the pressure-bearing and compressible balancing device between the tunnel's primary support and the secondary lining. The secondary lining is then constructed directly on the surface of the secondary lining contact plate, and the pressure-bearing and compressible balancing device and the slide rail device are completely fixed between the primary support and the secondary lining.
[0018] As can be seen from the technical solution of the present invention, the manufacturing method of the pressure-bearing retractable balancing device placed between the primary support and the secondary lining of the tunnel mainly consists of the following six steps: ① The middle part of the slide rail contact plate and the upper part of the inclined plate are welded at an angle "α". The two inclined plates are placed opposite each other on the secondary lining contact plate, so that the slide rail contact plate is parallel to the secondary lining contact plate. The two ends of the secondary lining contact plate are respectively aligned with the middle ends of the two inclined plates; ② A compression spring is placed between the two sides of the inclined plate, and its two ends are in "U"-shaped contact with the inclined plate and the secondary lining contact plate; ③ The connecting bolts are passed through the hinges and the compression spring, and the nuts are fixed at both ends to form a pressure-bearing retractable balancing device; ④ Two "L"-shaped plates are taken, with their short sides coplanar and spaced apart, and holes are opened at equal intervals. The positioning bolts are passed through the holes and fixed to the surface of the primary support to form a slide rail device; ⑥ The slide rail contact plates of multiple pressure-bearing retractable balancing devices are slid into contact with the slide rail device and the secondary lining is installed, so that the pressure-bearing retractable balancing device is placed between the primary support and the secondary lining of the tunnel. The above technical solution creates a device with an adjustable thickness, less than the buffer layer thickness, and an elastic limit lower than that of the limiter, thus effectively solving the problem of resisting surrounding rock deformation and protecting the support structure. This provides a better option among materials and devices for resisting surrounding rock deformation in tunnel construction. Furthermore, the overall manufacturing process of this invention is relatively easy to implement, facilitating the successful fabrication of the device. Attached Figure Description
