AI Technical Summary
The existing floating turnouts have a fixed height, which makes it difficult to adapt to the site elevation differences and narrow site dual-track operation requirements of long-distance shield tunnels, resulting in vehicle overturning and deflection, and is also difficult to adapt to the existing underground transportation network.
Using separate rails and infrared transmitters in conjunction with motors and driven wheels, and secured with fish-tail bolts, the floating turnout can be adjusted in height and moved automatically. Connecting pins are used to splice multiple turnout sections.
It effectively avoids vehicle overturning and deflection, meets different height requirements, enables dual-line operation in narrow spaces, reduces manpower, and adapts to complex geological conditions.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a tunnel construction technical field especially to a telescopic-splicing type floating turnout suitable for long distance shield tunnel. BACKGROUND
[0002] Shield tunnel is an engineering technology for underground excavation. It uses a shield machine to excavate the tunnel while supporting the excavation face. The front end of the shield machine has a large cutter head that can cut through soil and rock, then discharge these materials outside the tunnel, while installing support structures (such as lining rings) inside the tunnel to maintain its stability. This technology is often used in urban metro, underground drainage systems, water supply pipelines, etc. because it can carry out large-scale underground excavation without damaging the ground surface. The advantages of shield tunnel construction include reducing ground disturbance, adapting to complex geological conditions, and improving construction safety.
[0003] During tunnel construction, some geological conditions are not suitable for shield construction, so when designing, the tunnel line will be offset downward or upward, resulting in an angle. The current floating turnout has a fixed height, and the vehicle may overturn or deviate when passing through these angles. In addition, many cities now have underground traffic networks, and new tunnels have certain size requirements. The existing floating turnout has a fixed size and is difficult to meet the size requirements of new tunnels.
[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to build a floating turnout suitable for long distance shield tunnel that can adjust the height and meet the needs of double-line operation in narrow space. SUMMARY

[0010] Further, fish tail bolts are arranged on both sides of the sleeper, and the fish tail bolts are used for fixing the sleeper on the shield segment, so that the floating turnout is prevented from being deviated during the transportation of the vehicle.
[0011] Further, four separated rails are arranged on the sleeper, and the four separated rails are arranged in two groups, and are used for connecting the operation vehicle.

[0014] Further, the infrared emitter is fixed on the side of the separated rail, and the infrared emitter is used for determining the height of the rail, so that the site fall is corrected, and the operation vehicle is prevented from overturning.
