Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of underground engineering construction technology, and in particular to a multi-channel grouting sealing tail shield for pipe jacking machines used in karst formations. Background Technology

[0002] Pipe jacking technology is widely used in underground engineering construction. However, when faced with karst formations, traditional construction methods encounter severe challenges. Karst formations have complex structures with numerous cavities and fissures, resulting in extremely poor ground stability. During pipe jacking operations, ground collapse is very likely to occur, causing soil and water loss around the pipe segments, seriously threatening construction safety and greatly increasing the risk of project quality problems.

[0003] Meanwhile, karst caves often contain groundwater or corrosive media, which ordinary pipe jacking machine tail shield sealing structures cannot withstand. They not only fail to effectively prevent mortar seepage but also cannot withstand corrosion and wear, resulting in frequent sealing failures that seriously hinder the construction process. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a pipe jacking machine sealing tail shield that is suitable for karst cave strata. It must not only be able to accurately grout and reinforce the karst cave strata to enhance the stability of the strata, but also have excellent sealing performance to prevent impurities from entering and ensure that the pipe jacking machine can operate reliably and stably in complex karst cave environments.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-4 This utility model embodiment is used for a multi-channel grouting sealing tail shield of a pipe jacking machine in karst formations. It includes a tail shield shell 1, a support platform 6 inside the tail shield shell 1, a multi-channel grouting pipe 3 inside the support platform 6, a grease pipe 14 inside the support platform 6, and a port anti-seepage mechanism inside the support platform 6. A sealing brush 15 is provided at the lower end of the grease pipe 14, the upper end of the sealing brush 15 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support platform 6, and the lower end of the sealing brush 15 is in close contact with the pipe segment 4 for sealing and friction reduction. The number of multi-channel grouting pipes 3 is multiple and evenly distributed inside the support platform 6, and the number of grease pipes 14 is multiple and evenly distributed inside the support platform 6 to ensure the grouting and grease sealing effect.

[0024] The port seepage prevention mechanism includes a placement groove 10 and an electric telescopic rod 11. The bottom of the placement groove 10 is fixedly connected to the electric telescopic rod 11. A sliding rod 13 is fixedly connected to the front end of the electric telescopic rod 11. A top support 7 is fixedly connected to the front end of the sliding rod 13. A corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant sealing ring 2 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the top support 7. A connecting hole 9 is connected to the front end of the placement groove 10. A seepage prevention ring 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting hole 9. The inner wall of the seepage prevention ring 12 is slidably connected to the sliding rod 13 to enhance the seepage prevention performance of the port seepage prevention mechanism. A support platform 6 is also included. A groove 8 is provided near the outer surface, and the inner wall of the groove 8 is slidably connected to the top support 7 to guide the movement of the top support 7. A sealing ring groove 5 is provided near the outer surface of the tail shield shell 1, and the inner wall of the sealing ring groove 5 is slidably connected to the anti-corrosion and wear-resistant sealing ring 2 to enhance the sealing effect. There are multiple electric telescopic rods 11, which are evenly distributed in the placement grooves 10 inside the support platform 6 to provide power for the port seepage prevention mechanism. There are multiple top supports 7, which correspond one-to-one with the electric telescopic rods 11 to ensure the effective operation of the port seepage prevention mechanism.

[0025] Working principle: The support platform 6 inside the tail shield shell 1 is equipped with multiple grouting pipes 3, which are evenly distributed. During construction, different types of grout can be injected into the karst formation through these multiple grouting pipes 3 to reinforce the formation, fill the voids in the karst cave, etc., to meet different engineering needs. According to specific construction requirements and formation conditions, the grouting volume and grouting pressure of each grouting pipe can be flexibly controlled to achieve effective reinforcement and treatment of the formation. Multiple grease pipes 14 are also evenly distributed inside the support platform 6. The lower end of the grease pipes 14 is equipped with... The sealing brush 15 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support platform 6 at its upper end and in close contact with the pipe segment 4 at its lower end. During the advancement of the pipe jacking machine, grease is injected into the sealing brush 15 through the grease pipe 14. The grease forms a grease sealing layer on the contact surface between the sealing brush 15 and the pipe segment 4. On the one hand, it can reduce the friction between the tail shield of the pipe jacking machine and the pipe segment 4, making the advancement of the pipe jacking machine smoother. On the other hand, the grease sealing layer can effectively prevent water, mud and sand and other substances in the stratum from entering the interior of the tail shield, playing a good sealing role and protecting the equipment and structure inside the tail shield.

[0026] The port seepage prevention mechanism consists of a placement groove 10, an electric telescopic rod 11, a sliding rod 13, a top support 7, and a corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant sealing ring 2. Multiple electric telescopic rods 11 are evenly distributed within the placement groove 10 inside the support platform 6. Multiple top supports 7 also correspond one-to-one with the electric telescopic rods 11. When it is necessary to prevent mortar from seeping out of the port during pipe jacking construction, the electric telescopic rod 11 is activated and extended, pushing the sliding rod 13 forward. The sliding rod 13 drives the top support 7 to slide forward along the sliding groove 8 of the support platform 6. As the top support 7 moves forward, the corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant sealing ring 2, fixedly connected to it, gradually rises outward until it is tightly sealed with the surrounding soil layer. The anti-corrosion and wear-resistant sealing ring 2 is in close contact with the soil layer. Through the extension and retraction control of the electric telescopic rod 11, the lifting force and position of the anti-corrosion and wear-resistant sealing ring 2 can be adjusted according to the actual situation to form a reliable seal between it and the soil layer, effectively preventing mortar from seeping out from the tail shield port. At the same time, the anti-corrosion and wear-resistant sealing ring 2 also fits tightly against the inner wall of the sealing ring groove 5 of the tail shield shell 1, further enhancing the sealing effect. The inner wall of the connecting hole 9 at the front end of the placement groove 10 is fixedly connected to the seepage prevention ring 12. The seepage prevention ring 12 is slidably connected to the sliding rod 13. During the sliding of the sliding rod 13, the seepage prevention ring 12 can further prevent liquid and silt from seeping out from the placement groove 10, improving the overall seepage prevention performance.

However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
