TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of TBM disc cutter rock breaking simulation experiment. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of transportation infrastructure construction, tunnel engineering is increasingly extending to deep complex strata. Tunnel boring machine (TBM) has become the core equipment for long tunnel construction due to its efficient, continuous and safe operation advantages. However, in the process of tunneling in hard rock strata, the disc cutter bears high stress impact and severe wear, resulting in frequent replacement of cutters and soaring construction costs. Therefore, in-depth study of disc cutter rock breaking mechanism and optimization of cutter design and arrangement form have become the key to improving TBM tunneling efficiency.
[0003] Currently, the research on disc cutter rock breaking mechanism mainly relies on two types of test platforms:
[0004] Full-size disc cutter test bench and scaled disc cutter test bench.
[0005] Full-size test bench directly uses actual cutter size, which can better restore the interaction between TBM cutter head and rock mass, but it has significant defects such as large equipment, long experimental period and high cost, which is difficult to meet the needs of multi-condition and high-frequency experiments.
[0006] The scaled test bench reduces the size of the cutter by equal proportion, which reduces the experimental cost and period, but has the following limitations in simulation degree:
[0007] Insufficient mechanical similarity: traditional scaled bench ignores complex physical fields such as cutting heat and dynamic load fluctuation, making it difficult to truly reflect the stress distribution and temperature field changes during disc cutter rock breaking;
[0008] Geometric matching deviation: the cutter arrangement form is fixed, which cannot flexibly simulate the influence of different cutter head layouts on rock breaking efficiency;
[0009] Parameter control is rough: the rock sample feeding and cutter movement precision are low, resulting in systematic deviation between experimental data and actual working conditions.
[0010] To solve the above contradictions, an innovative test platform that can efficiently carry out experiments and accurately simulate real working conditions is urgently needed. Therefore, the applicant has two design ideas:
[0011] 1. High-precision simulation, high cost, both scaled and full-size experiments can be carried out; the overall effect is better than the second design idea.
[0012] 2. Improve simulation accuracy, lower cost, can carry out scaled experiments, the effect is significantly improved compared with the past, and the experimental efficiency is higher.
[0013] After the above two design ideas are implemented, the device of the second idea can be used for low-cost and rapid scaledown pre-research work, and the device of the first idea can be used for full-size experimental verification and accurate optimization, so that resource waste is reduced and research achievement transformation efficiency is improved.
