Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tunnel boring machine slag mixing technology, and in particular to a tunnel boring machine slag mixing device. Background Technology
[0002] A tunnel boring machine (TBM) is a large-scale mechanical equipment used for tunnel construction. It has many advantages such as high efficiency, safety, and environmental friendliness, and is widely used in modern tunnel engineering construction. However, TBMs generate a large amount of excavated soil during the construction process.
[0003] The excavated soil encountered during tunnel boring machine (TBM) construction often has complex properties and needs to be thoroughly mixed with added modifiers, such as bentonite, foaming agents, and polymers, to adjust its consistency, fluidity, and permeability, thereby achieving better construction performance and facilitating subsequent transportation and processing. Furthermore, in strata rich in clay minerals or with high water content, the excavated soil may clump together or adhere to the inner walls of the equipment, affecting the normal operation of the soil chamber and the smooth operation of excavation equipment such as screw conveyors, leading to poor excavation and even equipment failure. To prevent soil adhesion and maintain its loose state, it is necessary to mix the excavated soil to make it easier to transport and to ensure thorough mixing with the modifier. However, existing excavated soil mixing devices often produce uneven mixing and dead zones, resulting in insufficient mixing of the excavated soil and modifier, thus affecting the performance improvement effect. Therefore, a new excavated soil mixing device for TBMs is needed. Utility Model Content
