Therefore, it needs to be treated in a timely manner. Existing sand washing equipment often has unsatisfactory treatment effect and low treatment efficiency, and some sand washing equipment occupies too much area, resulting in excessive waste of space.

[0003] Meanwhile, the patent specification with announcement number CN 217028905 U discloses a high-efficiency sand washing shield tunnel slag treatment device, including a shell, a mixing and conveying wheel, a movable screening frame structure, an inclined plate, a discharge port, a mud pump, a water pump, a five-stage sedimentation tank, a clear water tank, a water outlet valve, a mixing station, a three-stage sedimentation tank, a first filter press, a conveying pipeline, a feed hopper, a mixing conveying cylinder structure, and a second filter press. The mixing and conveying wheel is axially connected to the middle part of the shell; the movable screening frame structure is supported on the right side of the shell; and the inclined plate is welded to the lower right side of the shell.

[0004] However, in implementing the relevant technology, the following problems were found in the above-mentioned high-efficiency sand washing shield tunnel slag treatment device: the device has a good effect in shield tunnel slag treatment, but due to its large size, it occupies a huge space, resulting in insufficient space utilization and considerable trouble in terms of installation and use.

[0005] Therefore, a multi-stage sand washing device for tunnel boring machine excavation is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, this utility model provides a multi-stage sand washing device for shield tunnel excavation, which has the advantages of simple structure, small size, and small footprint. This utility model completes the treatment of shield tunnel excavation after passing through the multi-stage sand washing device. While taking into account the sand washing effect, this device occupies a small size, which is also convenient for later installation and use. At the same time, it occupies less space, and the space utilization rate is greatly improved.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-stage sand washing device for tunnel boring machine excavation, comprising a housing, a primary sand washing screen fixedly installed inside the housing, a waterproof sleeve fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the primary sand washing screen, a second motor fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the primary sand washing screen, a rotating fan fixedly installed at the end of the main shaft of the second motor, and the rotating fan rotating inside the primary sand washing screen, a water-guiding ring fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the primary sand washing screen, a water-collecting hopper fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the water-guiding ring, a drain pipe fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the water-collecting hopper, and a secondary sand washing screen rotatably installed on the outside of the primary sand washing screen.

[0008] Preferably, a first motor is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the housing, and a main gear is fixedly mounted at the end of the main shaft of the first motor.

[0012] Preferably, the box is fixedly provided with a water-blocking ring, and the secondary sand washing net rotates inside the water-blocking ring, and a storage box is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the water-blocking ring.

[0013] Preferably, the water-blocking ring has a water outlet channel fixedly installed inside, and the water outlet channel penetrates the box body.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This invention uses a second motor to drive a rotating fan and a secondary sand washing screen. The rotating fan rotates the internal slag, which is then screened by the efficient openings on the outer side of the primary sand washing screen, separating the slag and water. The slag then enters the secondary sand washing screen, where it is simultaneously rotated, and centrifugal force washes the slag again. All the sand washing devices are located inside the housing, minimizing external space usage. This invention completes the treatment of the tunnel boring machine slag through multiple stages of sand washing, achieving both effective washing and a small footprint, making installation and use convenient. This also significantly improves space utilization. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Working principle and process:

[0032] When using a multi-stage sand washing device for tunnel boring machine (TBM) excavated soil, the TBM excavated soil is first fed into the hopper (3) on the top surface of the box (1) for sand washing. The support frame (2) on the bottom surface of the box (1) is used to support all the components of the upper part to ensure its stability. When the excavated soil enters the hopper (3), the switch of the first motor (4) is turned on. The first motor (4) drives the main gear (5) to rotate. The main gear (5) drives the auxiliary gears (6) on both sides to start rotating. The auxiliary gears (6) drive the crushing wheel (7). The rotation of the crushing wheel (7) crushes some oversized slag. The crushed slag falls into the interior of the primary sand washing screen (10). Then, the switch of the second motor (8) is turned on. The waterproof sleeve (11) on the outside of the second motor (8) is used to protect the second motor (8) from damage after contact with water. The second motor (8) drives the rotating fan (9) to start rotating. The rotating fan (9) drives the slag inside to rotate. During the rotation, the slag will enter the secondary sand washing screen through the small holes on the side of the primary sand washing screen (10). Inside the secondary sand washing screen (19), the water is rotated by the secondary sand washing screen (19), and then flows into the water inlet ring (12) through the hole at the bottom of the secondary sand washing screen (19), and then is discharged to the outside of the device through the drain pipe (14) along the water collection hopper (13). The fixing frame (15) here is used to support the drain pipe (14) to prevent it from collapsing due to gravity. The slag rotates inside the secondary sand washing screen (19), and the slag and water are separated a second time under the action of centrifugal force. The separated water The soil is drawn into the water-blocking ring (16) and finally discharged into the device through the water outlet (17). The treated slag is stored in the storage box (18). The alarm (20) is used to alert the staff when the device malfunctions. This utility model completes the treatment of shield tunnel slag after passing through a multi-stage sand washing device. While taking into account the sand washing effect, the device occupies a small volume and is more convenient for later installation and use. At the same time, it occupies less space and greatly improves the space utilization rate.
