[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an assembleable and replaceable shield cutterhead, which has the following advantages:

[0015] 1. This type of assembleable and replaceable shield cutterhead, by setting up a heavy-duty tearing cutter mechanism, a disc spring, a limiting rod, a limiting plate, a drive rod, a locking nut, an annular groove, a crossbar, and a mounting groove, rotates the drive rod to drive the limiting rod down while the limiting plate presses on the disc spring, compressing the disc spring. Rotating the locking nut to press it against the outside of the heavy-duty tearing cutter mechanism restricts the rotation of the drive rod, thus embedding the heavy-duty tearing cutter mechanism into the mounting groove. Loosening the locking nut and rotating the drive rod in the opposite direction causes the limiting rod to extend and insert into the corresponding limiting hole in the mounting groove. The disc spring rests between the mounting groove and the heavy-duty tearing cutter mechanism, allowing for convenient installation of the heavy-duty tearing cutter mechanism and quick disassembly.

[0016] 2. This type of assembleable and replaceable shield cutterhead is equipped with a disc spring, a limit rod, a drive rod, a locking nut, an annular groove, and a crossbar. The limit rod restricts the position of the heavy-duty tearing cutter mechanism, while the disc spring continuously provides a tightening force to ensure the stable installation of the heavy-duty tearing cutter mechanism and prevent the heavy-duty tearing cutter mechanism from loosening.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-4In this embodiment: a detachable and assembleable shield cutterhead includes a main body 1, a panel 2 on the main body 1, spokes 3 on the main body 1 near the panel 2, scrapers 4 on the spokes 3, a steel grid 5 between the panel 2 and the spokes 3, disc-shaped roller cutters 6 on the edge of the panel 2, a heavy-duty tearing knife mechanism 7 on the panel 2, a central knife 8 in the middle of the panel 2, and an installation groove 9 on the panel 2;

[0024] The mounting slot 9 facilitates the installation of the heavy-duty tearing knife mechanism 7, and the steel grating 5 ensures the stability between the panel 2 and the spokes 3.

[0025] The heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7 includes a ripping knife 701, a disc spring 702, a limiting rod 703, a limiting disc 704, a crossbeam 705, a drive rod 706, a locking nut 707, an annular groove 708, a crossbar 709, and a spiral pattern 7010. Disc springs 702 are provided on both sides of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7, and a limiting rod 703 is inserted into the disc springs 702. A limiting disc 704 is provided on the top of the limiting rod 703. A crossbeam 705 is provided inside the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7. A drive rod 706 is provided on the outside of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7. A locking nut 707 is provided on the drive rod 706. Annular grooves 708 are opened on the inner and outer sides of the limiting rod 703. A crossbar 709 is provided on the outside of the drive rod 706. A spiral pattern 7010 is provided on the drive rod 706.

[0026] By tightening the locking nut 707, the rotation of the drive rod 706 can be restricted by pressing the locking nut 707 against the heavy-duty tearing knife mechanism 7. The locking nut 707 and the drive rod 706 can be threaded together by the helical thread 7010.

[0027] In this embodiment, the spokes 3 and the panel 2 are integrally formed. The scraper 4 is fixedly installed on both sides of the spokes 3. The disc-shaped roller 6 is rotatably installed on the panel 2 and there are several sets of them. The center blade 8 is fixedly installed at the center of the panel 2. There are several sets of the mounting grooves 9. The mounting grooves 9 are adapted to the heavy-duty tearing blade mechanism 7. The limiting disc 704 is fixedly installed on the top of the limiting rod 703. The limiting rod 703 passes through the disc spring 702 and extends into the heavy-duty tearing blade mechanism 7. The limiting rod 703 passes through the crossbeam 705.

[0028] Specifically, the scraper 4, disc cutter 6, and heavy-duty tearing cutter mechanism 7 play a major role in cutting and breaking the strata during tunnel excavation, while the crossbeam 705 ensures the stability of the limit rod 703 and prevents it from shaking.

[0029] In this embodiment, there are six sets of disc springs 702 distributed at the upper and lower ends of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7. The mounting mechanism of each set of disc springs 702 is the same. The mounting groove 9 is provided with a limiting hole that matches the limiting rod 703. One end of the drive rod 706 extends into the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7, and the other end of the drive rod 706 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7. The annular groove 708 and the crossbar 709 fit together. There is a threaded connection between the spiral 7010 and the locking nut 707.

[0030] Specifically, the disc spring 702 continuously provides a clamping force to ensure the stable installation of the heavy-duty tearing knife mechanism 7, and the engagement of the annular groove 708 with the crossbar 709 facilitates the movement of the drive rod 706 and the limit rod 703.

[0031] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In actual use, when installing the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7, the drive rod 706 at the upper end of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7 is rotated counterclockwise, while the drive rod 706 at the lower end of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7 rotates clockwise. Because the crossbar 709 and the annular groove 708 mutually restrict each other, the drive rod 706 will drive the limit rod 703 to descend, and at the same time, the limiting disc 704 will press on the disc spring 702. The disc spring 702 will be compressed by force. At this time, the locking nut 707 is rotated to make it fit tightly against the outside of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7, which can restrict the rotation of the drive rod 706. At this time, the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7 is embedded in the mounting groove 9. Simultaneously loosen the locking nut 707 and rotate the drive rod 706 in the opposite direction, causing the limiting rod 703 to extend and insert into the corresponding limiting hole in the mounting groove 9. At this time, the disc spring 702 is no longer compressed and rests between the mounting groove 9 and the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7. Finally, rotate the locking nut 707 again to make it fit tightly against the outside of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7. The heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7 can be installed easily, and the disassembly process can be carried out quickly. The limiting rod 703 restricts the position of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7, while the disc spring 702 continuously provides a tightening force to ensure the stable installation of the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7 and prevent the heavy-duty ripping knife mechanism 7 from loosening.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
