Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tunnel segment transportation technology, specifically relating to a support for a shield tunnel segment transportation vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of high-speed railways, the demand for tunnel engineering is increasing daily. Shield tunneling technology, with its advantages of high efficiency, safety, and environmental friendliness, has become an important means of tunnel construction. The shield tunneling method uses a movable shield shell at the excavation face to cut and remove soil, and simultaneously assembles precast tunnel segments (box culverts) to form the tunnel lining, thereby effectively controlling ground settlement and reducing the impact on the surrounding environment. However, shield tunnel construction faces complex geological conditions and technical challenges, among which quality control in the segment transportation stage is particularly critical.

[0003] As high-grade precast concrete components, the quality of tunnel segments directly affects the structural safety and durability of the tunnel. During transportation, segments may be damaged, cracked, or have dimensional deviations due to vibration, collision, or improper stacking, thus affecting assembly accuracy and the overall quality of the tunnel. Therefore, optimizing transportation processes, reducing transportation losses, and ensuring that segments arrive at the construction site intact have become important issues in the quality control of shield tunnel construction. In current technologies, segment transportation largely relies on specialized vehicles and fixed equipment, but further improvements are needed in transportation stability, collision protection, and loading / unloading efficiency to meet the high-quality requirements of complex construction environments.

The fixing plate is fixedly connected to one end of the spring, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the top edge of the horizontal side of the through groove.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] The symmetrical arrangement of two pairs of arc-shaped channel steel plates, matching the outer contour of the tunnel segments, effectively limits the displacement and swaying of the segments during transportation, reducing the risk of damage caused by vibration or bumps. The transverse and longitudinal fixing plates form a rigid support frame, dispersing impact forces during transportation and preventing cracks or chipping at the edges of the segments due to impacts.
