Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shield tunnel ventilation, and in particular to a TBM shield tunnel ventilation enhancement device. Background Technology
[0002] Tunnels are engineering structures buried in the earth's strata and are a form of human utilization of underground space. Tunnels can be divided into traffic tunnels, hydraulic tunnels, municipal tunnels, mining tunnels, etc. Among them, traffic tunnels are channels specifically for automobile transportation and play an important role in improving the technical condition of highways, shortening travel distances, increasing transportation capacity, and reducing accidents.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN211874535U discloses a ventilation device for long-distance shield tunnel construction, including an arched support frame with a ventilation mechanism fixedly installed inside. The ventilation mechanism includes multiple circular mounting slots, all located at the top of the arched support frame. Horizontal mounting slots are provided on both sides of each circular mounting slot. However, existing devices have some shortcomings. During tunnel construction, a significant amount of dust is dispersed inside the tunnel, affecting air quality. Existing devices typically inject outside air into the tunnel, but this process disperses the dust again, polluting the air. Therefore, we propose a TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine) ventilation enhancement device to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

An air injection component and an air exhaust component are respectively installed on the inner wall of the tunnel body. A transmission component is installed inside the air injection component and the air exhaust component. A control component is installed on the outer surface of the air injection component and the outer surface of the air exhaust component. Multiple closing components are installed on the outer surface of the air injection component and the outer surface of the air exhaust component.
[0007] In a further embodiment, the air injection assembly includes an air injection frame, with two first air injection fans installed at the front end of the air injection frame, and a plurality of first mounting frames installed on the outer surface of the air injection frame, with a second air injection fan installed inside each of the first mounting frames.
[0008] In a further embodiment, the exhaust assembly includes an exhaust frame, with two first exhaust fans installed at the front end of the exhaust frame, and a plurality of second mounting frames installed on the outer surface of the exhaust frame, with a second exhaust fan installed inside each of the second mounting frames.
[0009] In a further embodiment, the closure assembly includes a plurality of fixed frames, each fixed frame being located on the outer surface of a plurality of first mounting frames and second mounting frames, and each fixed frame having a louvered baffle installed on its inner wall.
[0010] In a further embodiment, the control component includes a plurality of control buttons, each located on the outer surface of the air inlet frame and the air outlet frame, respectively.
[0011] In a further embodiment, the transfer assembly includes a plurality of mounting brackets, each of which is located inside the air injection frame and the air exhaust frame, and a transfer fan is mounted on the outer surface of each mounting bracket.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This utility model discloses a TBM (Shield Tunnel) ventilation enhancement device. Through the air injection component installed in the device, outside air can be injected into the tunnel, while through the exhaust component installed, polluted air in the tunnel can be discharged. Under the interaction of the air injection component and the exhaust component, the air in the tunnel is circulated, thereby purifying the air in the tunnel. Therefore, this device effectively solves the problem that existing devices cannot purify the air in the tunnel during use. Attached Figure Description
