AI Technical Summary
In the construction of hydraulic tunnels, the limited space of small-section tunnels makes it difficult to ensure the safety of construction workers, the inconvenience of operating machinery and equipment, and the difficulty of transporting tunnel muck, resulting in slow construction progress, long preparation time, and difficulty in ensuring safety.
Design an arch protection support for the excavation of small-section tunnel faces, including a support body, vertical columns, support rods and a walking system. The support rods are flipped and locked by a flipping device and locking pins. Combined with self-propelled wheels, it is easy to move, ensuring operation safety and shortening the process time.
This technology enables continuous blasting operations while ensuring the safety of construction personnel, shortening construction time, accelerating construction progress, improving work efficiency, simplifying operation procedures, and enhancing connection strength and protective effects.
