[0027] Embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the attached drawing figures, wherein the same or like reference numerals and characters throughout the figures denote the same or like elements or components. The embodiments described below are exemplary and are not intended to be limiting. Rather, the present disclosure encompasses all alternatives, modifications and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0028] As shown in Figure 1 The present disclosure provides a slurry discharging device for a slurry balance shield tunneling machine, which comprises a slurry inlet passage 1 and a slurry discharge passage 2. The slurry inlet passage 1 comprises a first slurry inlet sub-pipe 11 and a second slurry inlet sub-pipe 12. The liquid inlet ends of the first slurry inlet sub-pipe 11 and the second slurry inlet sub-pipe 12 are respectively connected to a first slurry, and the liquid outlet end of the first slurry inlet sub-pipe 11 is connected to the liquid inlet end of a slurry tank 100 in a shield system, and the liquid outlet end of the second slurry inlet sub-pipe 12 is connected to the liquid inlet end of an air cushion tank 200 in the shield system. The slurry discharge passage 2 comprises a first slurry discharge sub-pipe 21 and a second slurry discharge sub-pipe 22. The liquid inlet end of the first slurry discharge sub-pipe 21 is connected to the liquid outlet end of the slurry tank 100, and the liquid inlet end of the second slurry discharge sub-pipe 22 is connected to the liquid outlet end of the air cushion tank 200. The liquid outlet ends of the first slurry discharge sub-pipe 21 and the second slurry discharge sub-pipe 22 are respectively connected to a second slurry. The first slurry inlet sub-pipe 11 and the second slurry inlet sub-pipe 12 are connected, and the first slurry discharge sub-pipe 21 and / or the second slurry discharge sub-pipe 22 are connected.

[0029] It can be understood that, since the liquid inlet ends of the first slurry inlet sub-pipe 11 and the second slurry inlet sub-pipe 12 are respectively connected to a first slurry, and the liquid outlet end of the first slurry inlet sub-pipe 11 is connected to the liquid inlet end of a slurry tank 100 in a shield system, and the liquid outlet end of the second slurry inlet sub-pipe 12 is connected to the liquid inlet end of an air cushion tank 200 in the shield system, the first slurry can enter the slurry tank 100 in the shield system through the first slurry inlet sub-pipe 11, and enter the air cushion tank 200 in the shield system through the second slurry inlet sub-pipe 12. Since the liquid inlet end of the first slurry discharge sub-pipe 21 is connected to the liquid outlet end of the slurry tank 100, and the liquid inlet end of the second slurry discharge sub-pipe 22 is connected to the liquid outlet end of the air cushion tank 200, the liquid outlet ends of the first slurry discharge sub-pipe 21 and the second slurry discharge sub-pipe 22 are respectively connected to a second slurry, so that the second slurry in the slurry tank 100 can be discharged through the first slurry discharge sub-pipe 21, and the second slurry in the air cushion tank 200 can be discharged through the second slurry discharge sub-pipe 22.

[0030] When the first slurry inlet branch pipe 11 and the second slurry inlet branch pipe 12 are turned on, and the first slurry outlet branch pipe 21 is turned on, the first slurry can be transported to the slurry tank 100 and the air cushion tank 200, and the second slurry mixed by the first slurry and the muck is discharged from the slurry tank 100, so as to realize the slurry discharge mode of interval control and direct discharge, and further adapt to the shield working condition of low permeability stratum.

[0031] When the first slurry inlet branch pipe 11 and the second slurry inlet branch pipe 12 are turned on, and the second slurry outlet branch pipe 22 is turned on, the first slurry can be transported to the slurry tank 100 and the air cushion tank 200, and the second slurry mixed by the first slurry and the muck is discharged from the air cushion tank 200, so as to realize the slurry discharge mode of interval control and interval discharge, and further adapt to the shield working condition of high permeability stratum.

[0032] When the first slurry inlet branch pipe 11 and the second slurry inlet branch pipe 12 are turned on, and the second slurry outlet branch pipe 22 and the second slurry outlet branch pipe 22 are turned on, the first slurry can be transported to the slurry tank 100 and the air cushion tank 200, and the second slurry mixed by the first slurry and the muck is discharged from the air cushion tank 200 and the slurry tank 100, so as to realize the slurry discharge mode of interval control and mixing, and further adapt to the shield working condition of mixed stratum of low permeability and high permeability.

[0033] Therefore, through the cooperation of the first slurry inlet branch pipe 11, the second slurry inlet branch pipe 12, the first slurry outlet branch pipe 21 and the second slurry outlet branch pipe 22, different slurry discharge modes can be realized according to different slurry states, so as to adapt to complex geological conditions and meet diversified construction requirements, and further effectively improve the construction quality and working efficiency of the shield system.

[0034] It should be noted that the slurry balance shield machine is widely used in various tunnel construction, which uses the mixed slurry suspension (mud) as the supporting material, and forms a water-impermeable mud film through slurry penetration to convert the slurry pressure into effective supporting force to balance the water and soil pressure of the excavation face.

[0035] When the shield machine passes through long-distance stratum with high water pressure and high permeability, the slurry is easy to be filtered in large amount, which leads to the instability of the excavation face, and further causes collapse accident. The high permeability stratum usually refers to the stratum with extremely strong water permeability and fast underground water flow rate (such as pebble stratum, gravel layer, strongly weathered fissured rock stratum, karst cave developed stratum, etc.), which is characterized by large porosity and good connectivity between particles, allowing water and fluid to quickly penetrate. This kind of stratum poses significant challenges to the stability, sealing and safety of shield construction.

[0036] Characteristics of high permeability stratum: intense underground water activity: high pore water pressure in stratum, easy to form gushing or spouting; coarse particles, poor cementation: no cohesion between particles in gravel layer or pebble layer, poor self-stability of excavation face; shield sealing system is easy to fail: under slurry balance mode, slurry is easy to leak in soil, leading to pressure imbalance.

[0037] Low-permeability strata refer to strata with extremely low permeability and very slow groundwater flow rates (such as clay, silty clay, silty soil, dense mudstone, and weakly weathered intact bedrock). They are characterized by low porosity, poor interparticle connectivity, and difficulty for water and fluids to penetrate.

[0038] Characteristics of low-permeability strata: poor groundwater flow: pore water pressure is transmitted slowly, making it difficult to drain through infiltration; fine particles and strong cementation: high proportion of fine particles (such as clay and silt), resulting in strong soil cohesion and good self-stability; low permeability but high plasticity: cohesive strata are prone to plastic flow, but have extremely weak permeability.

[0039] The slurry discharge system in this embodiment integrates slurry inlet channel 1 and slurry outlet channel 2 to achieve dynamic switching or coordinated operation of multiple modes, thereby improving adaptability to complex strata, slag removal efficiency, and construction safety. Through dynamic switching of multiple modes, it covers tunneling operations from low-permeability to high-permeability strata.

[0040] The slurry inlet passage 1 is used to introduce the first slurry into the mud-water tank 100 and the air cushion tank 200. The specific types of the first slurry inlet branch pipe 11 and the second slurry inlet branch pipe 12 can be set according to actual needs and there is no restriction. For example, the first slurry inlet branch pipe 11 and the second slurry inlet branch pipe 12 can be set as two sets, thereby forming a redundant design to ensure stable slurry inlet into the mud-water tank 100 and the air cushion tank 200.

[0041] The slurry discharge passage 2 is used to discharge the second slurry from the mud-water chamber 100 and the air cushion chamber 200. The specific types of the first slurry discharge branch pipe 21 and the second slurry discharge branch pipe 22 can be set according to actual needs and are not restricted.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the slurry discharge passage 2 further includes: a first valve body 23 and a second valve body 24. The first valve body 23 is disposed on the first slurry discharge branch pipe 21 and is used to selectively open the first slurry discharge branch pipe 21 and regulate the flow rate of the first slurry discharge branch pipe 21. The second valve body 24 is disposed on the second slurry discharge branch pipe 22 and is used to selectively open the second slurry discharge branch pipe 22 and regulate the flow rate of the second slurry discharge branch pipe 22.

[0043] It is understandable that when the first valve body 23 is turned on and the second valve body 24 is turned off, the second slurry, which is a mixture of the first slurry and the slag, is discharged from the mud and water chamber 100, thereby realizing the slurry discharge mode of indirect control and direct discharge, and thus adapting to the shield tunneling conditions of low permeability strata.

[0044] When the first valve body 23 is disconnected and the second valve body 24 is connected, the second slurry mixed by the first slurry and the muck is discharged from the air cushion bin 200, so as to realize the slurry discharge mode of interval control and interval discharge, and then adapt to the shield working condition of high permeability stratum.

[0045] When the first valve body 23 is connected and the second valve body 24 is connected, the second slurry mixed by the first slurry and the muck is discharged from the air cushion bin 200 and the slurry bin 100, so as to realize the slurry discharge mode of interval control and mixing, and then adapt to the shield working condition of mixed stratum of low permeability and high permeability.

[0046] It should be noted that based on the cooperation of the first valve body 23 and the second valve body 24, the switching of different modes can be realized, and the specific type of the first valve body 23 and the second valve body 24 can be set according to actual needs, which is not limited.

[0048] It can be understood that since the detection end of the first flow meter 25 is arranged on the first slurry discharge branch pipe 21, the first flow meter 25 can detect the flow of the first slurry discharge branch pipe 21, so as to facilitate the precise control of the system by using the flow of the first slurry discharge branch pipe 21; since the detection end of the second flow meter 26 is arranged on the second slurry discharge branch pipe 22, the second flow meter 26 can detect the flow of the second slurry discharge branch pipe 22, so as to facilitate the precise control of the system by using the flow of the second slurry discharge branch pipe 22.

[0049] It should be noted that the first flow meter 25 is used for detecting the flow of the first slurry discharge branch pipe 21, and the specific type of the first flow meter 25 can be set according to actual needs, which is not limited.

[0050] The second flow meter 26 is used for detecting the flow of the second slurry discharge branch pipe 22, and the specific type of the second flow meter 26 can be set according to actual needs, which is not limited.

[0055] It can be understood that since the detection end of the third flow meter 15 is arranged on the first pulp inlet branch pipe 11, the third flow meter 15 can detect the flow of the first pulp inlet branch pipe 11, so as to facilitate the precise control of the system by using the flow of the first pulp inlet branch pipe 11; since the detection end of the fourth flow meter 16 is arranged on the second pulp inlet branch pipe 12, the fourth flow meter 16 can detect the flow of the second pulp inlet branch pipe 12, so as to facilitate the precise control of the system by using the flow of the second pulp inlet branch pipe 12.

[0056] It should be noted that the third flow meter 15 is used for detecting the flow of the first pulp inlet branch pipe 11, and the specific type of the third flow meter 15 can be set according to actual needs, which is not limited.

[0060] It can be understood that, since the liquid inlet end of the pulp feeding main pipe 17 is connected to the first slurry, and the liquid outlet end of the pulp feeding main pipe 17 is connected to the liquid inlet end of the first pulp feeding branch pipe 11 and the liquid inlet end of the second pulp feeding branch pipe 12, respectively, the first slurry can enter the slurry chamber 100 of the shield system through the pulp feeding main pipe 17 and the first pulp feeding branch pipe 11, and enter the air cushion chamber 200 of the shield system through the pulp feeding main pipe 17 and the second pulp feeding branch pipe 12; since the liquid inlet end of the pulp discharging main pipe 27 is connected to the liquid outlet end of the first pulp discharging branch pipe 21 and the liquid outlet end of the second pulp discharging branch pipe 22, respectively, and the liquid outlet end of the pulp discharging main pipe 27 is used for discharging the second slurry, the second slurry in the slurry chamber 100 can be discharged through the first pulp discharging branch pipe 21 and the pulp discharging main pipe 27, and the second slurry in the air cushion chamber 200 can be discharged through the second pulp discharging branch pipe 22 and the pulp discharging main pipe 27.

[0067] It can be understood that, since the inlet end of the first bypass pipeline 31 is connected to the inlet slurry main pipe 17 and located between the inlet pump 18 and the fifth valve body 19, and the outlet end of the first bypass pipeline 31 is connected to the discharge slurry main pipe 27 and located at the end of the sixth valve body 28 away from the discharge pump 29, and the seventh valve body 32 is arranged on the first bypass pipeline 31, when the seventh valve body 32 is conductive, part of the first slurry in the inlet slurry main pipe 17 can enter the discharge passage 2 through the first bypass pipeline 31, and by controlling the opening degree of the seventh valve body 32, the flow of the inlet slurry main pipe 17 can also be regulated, thereby meeting the precise operation requirements of the system.

[0068] It should be noted that the seventh valve body 32 is used for bypass control of the inlet slurry, and the specific type of the seventh valve body 32 can be set according to actual needs, and is not limited in this regard.

[0069] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, the slurry discharge device further includes a backwash passage 4, which includes a backwash pipe 41 and an eighth valve body 42. The inlet end of the backwash pipe 41 is connected to the slurry main pipe 17 and is located at the end of the fifth valve body 19 away from the slurry pump 18. The outlet end of the backwash pipe 41 is connected to the slurry discharge main pipe 27 and is located between the sixth valve body 28 and the slurry discharge pump 29. The eighth valve body 42 is disposed on the backwash pipe 41 and is used to selectively open the backwash pipe 41 and adjust the flow rate of the backwash pipe 41.

[0070] Understandably, since the inlet end of the backwash pipe 41 is connected to the slurry main pipe 17 and located at the end of the fifth valve body 19 away from the slurry pump 18, and the outlet end of the backwash pipe 41 is connected to the slurry discharge main pipe 27 and located between the sixth valve body 28 and the slurry discharge pump 29, and the eighth valve body 42 is installed on the backwash pipe 41, when the fifth valve body 19 and the sixth valve body 28 are disconnected, and the seventh valve body 32 and the eighth valve body 42 are connected, the first slurry in the slurry main pipe 17 can enter the mud-water tank 100 and the air cushion tank 200 through the first bypass pipe 31, and be discharged through the backwash passage 4 and the slurry discharge main pipe 27, thereby realizing the backwashing of the mud-water tank 100 and the air cushion tank 200, and thus ensuring the efficient operation of the system.

[0071] It should be noted that the backwash passage 4 is used in conjunction with the first bypass pipeline 31 to achieve the normal backwash mode, and the eighth valve body 42 is used to control the opening and closing of the backwash passage 4 and the flow rate adjustment. The specific type of the eighth valve body 42 can be set according to actual needs and there are no restrictions on it.

[0072] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the slurry discharge device further includes a second bypass passage 5, which includes a second bypass pipe 51, a ninth valve body 52, and a booster pump 53. The inlet end of the second bypass pipe 51 is connected to the slurry main pipe 17 and is located between the slurry pump 18 and the fifth valve body 19. The outlet end of the second bypass pipe 51 is connected to the slurry discharge main pipe 27 and is located at the end of the sixth valve body 28 away from the slurry discharge pump 29. The ninth valve body 52 and the booster pump 53 are respectively disposed on the second bypass pipe 51. The ninth valve body 52 is used to selectively open the second bypass pipe 51.

[0073] Understandably, since the inlet end of the second bypass pipe 51 is connected to the slurry main pipe 17 and is located between the slurry pump 18 and the fifth valve body 19, and the outlet end of the second bypass pipe 51 is connected to the slurry discharge main pipe 27 and is located at the end of the sixth valve body 28 away from the slurry discharge pump 29, and the ninth valve body 52 and the booster pump 53 are respectively installed on the second bypass pipe 51, when the fifth valve body 19, the sixth valve body 28 and the seventh valve body 32 are disconnected, and the eighth valve body 42 and the ninth valve body 52 are connected, the first slurry in the slurry main pipe 17 can enter the mud-water tank 100 and the air cushion tank 200 through the second bypass pipe 51, and be discharged through the backwash passage 4 and the slurry discharge main pipe 27. At the same time, the booster pump 53 pressurizes and delivers the slurry, thereby realizing the pressurized backwashing of the mud-water tank 100 and the air cushion tank 200, thus ensuring the efficient operation of the system.

[0074] It should be noted that the second bypass passage 5 is used in conjunction with the backwash passage 4 to achieve a pressurized backwash mode, the ninth valve body 52 is used to control the opening and closing of the second bypass passage 5 and to regulate the flow rate, and the booster pump 53 is used for pressurized delivery of the backwash slurry. The specific types of the ninth valve body 52 and the booster pump 53 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited thereto. Specifically, there can be two ninth valve bodies 52, respectively arranged at both ends of the booster pump 53.

[0075] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the slurry discharge device further includes a monitoring module 6, which includes a first density meter 61, a first pressure sensor 62, a first liquid level sensor 63, a second density meter 64, a second pressure sensor 65, and a second liquid level sensor 66.

The first pressure sensor 62 has its detection end located inside the mud-water tank 100 and is used to detect the pressure of the mud-water tank 100. The first liquid level sensor 63 has its detection end located inside the mud-water tank 100 and is used to detect the liquid level of the mud-water tank 100. The second density meter 64 has its detection end located inside the air cushion tank 200 and is used to detect the density of the air cushion tank 200.

The second liquid level sensor 66 has its detection end located inside the air cushion tank 200 and is used to detect the liquid level of the air cushion tank 200.

[0076] It can be understood that, by using the arrangement of the first densimeter 61, the first pressure sensor 62 and the first liquid level sensor 63, the density of the slurry bin 100, the pressure of the slurry bin 100 and the liquid level of the slurry bin 100 can be obtained, and by using the arrangement of the second densimeter 64, the second pressure sensor 65 and the second liquid level sensor 66, the density of the air cushion bin 200, the pressure of the air cushion bin 200 and the liquid level of the air cushion bin 200 can be obtained, so that the accurate operation requirement of the system can be met.

[0077] It should be noted that the first densimeter 61 and the second densimeter 64 are both densimeters for detecting density, and the specific types of the first densimeter 61 and the second densimeter 64 can be set according to actual needs, which are not limited.
