Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tunnel construction technology, specifically to a corner support device for the arched formwork of the secondary lining of a mined tunnel. Background Technology
[0002] In the construction of mined tunnels, the installation of arched formwork for secondary lining is a crucial step in ensuring the stability and quality of the tunnel structure. Due to the variable curvature of tunnel arches, traditional disc-locking support frames are significantly inadequate for corner support. Currently, the common practice is to use steel pipe couplers to diagonally lock onto the uprights for slanted top support. However, this method has revealed several problems in practical application: First, the diagonal steel pipes need to be cross-locked onto the uprights, severely encroaching on the working space below the tunnel and affecting material transportation and excavation efficiency. Second, the installation process requires repeated adjustments to the angle of the diagonal bracing, necessitating multiple operations at height, which is not only labor-intensive but also poses high safety risks. Furthermore, the inconvenience of operation leads to insecure locking, making it difficult to guarantee support stability. In addition, traditional steel pipe diagonal bracing is ill-suited to situations with significant variations in tunnel arch curvature, easily interfering with the crossbars, causing uneven distribution of support force at the corners of the formwork, and even leading to localized stress concentration, resulting in formwork deformation, misalignment of the concrete surface, and other quality problems.

[0027] The lower support component includes a diagonal support rod 4, which is tubular. The upper end of the diagonal support rod 4 is set as a horizontal plane, and the lower opening of the diagonal support rod 4 is set as a slope. The slope of the lower opening of the diagonal support rod 4 is set as an arc-shaped surface.
[0028] A vertical connecting fastener is provided, with a vertical post 7 inside. The vertical connecting fastener includes a first arc-shaped steel plate 5 and a second arc-shaped steel plate 6. A leather washer 14 is provided on the inner side of the first arc-shaped steel plate 5 and the second arc-shaped steel plate 6. Two first pin holes are provided on the upper part of the first arc-shaped steel plate 5, and two second pin holes are provided on the upper part of the second arc-shaped steel plate 6. The two first pin holes are spaced apart, and the two second pin holes are spaced apart. The first pin hole is located at the foremost position, and a second pin hole is located behind the first pin hole. A second first pin hole is located behind the second pin hole behind the first pin hole, and the second second pin hole is located at the rearmost position. A connecting pin 8 passes through the first and second pin holes.
[0029] Two third pin holes are spaced apart below the first arc-shaped steel plate 5, and two fourth pin holes corresponding to the third pin holes are spaced apart below the second arc-shaped steel plate 6. Fastening bolts 9 are respectively inserted into the two sets of third and fourth pin holes, and fastening nuts 10 are provided on the fastening bolts 9. The first arc-shaped steel plate 5 and the second arc-shaped steel plate 6 are fixedly connected below by fastening bolts 9 and fastening nuts 10. The first arc-shaped steel plate 5 and the second arc-shaped steel plate 6 are fastened to the upright 7.
[0030] Example 2:
[0031] The following describes how to use this utility model:
[0032] Step 1: Install the vertical connecting fasteners. Fasten the first arc-shaped steel plate 5 and the second arc-shaped steel plate 6 onto the upright 7, ensuring that the inner leather washer 14 is tightly against the surface of the upright 7. Then, insert the connecting pin 8 into the first pin hole and the second pin hole to initially connect the two steel plates. Next, use the fastening bolt 9 and the fastening nut 10 to insert into the lower third pin hole and the fourth pin hole and tighten them to firmly fix the first arc-shaped steel plate 5 and the second arc-shaped steel plate 6 onto the upright 7. This step achieves a quick and reliable connection with the upright 7. The leather washer 14 effectively increases the friction and prevents metal wear, ensuring the rigidity and stability of the joint.
[0033] Step 2: Assemble and adjust the lower support component. Align the upper horizontal surface of the inclined support rod 4 with the end of the installed adjusting support rod 3, and fix the arc-shaped surface of its lower opening to the upright rod 7.
[0034] Step 3: Install and precisely adjust the upper support components. Rotate the adjusting support rod 3 onto the screw rod 2 via its internal threaded connection. Adjust the height of its top end by rotating the adjusting support rod 3, so that the U-shaped top support 1 is accurately raised to the designed elevation position of the corner of the secondary lining arch template 15. Install the template support keel 16 between the U-shaped top support 1 and the secondary lining arch template 15. This step, by adjusting the threaded engagement between the support rod 3 and the screw rod 2, achieves precise and convenient adjustment of the support height, perfectly adapting to the elevation requirements of different curvatures of the arch. The cooperation between the U-shaped top support 1 and the template support keel 16 ensures uniform distribution of jacking force, greatly reducing the operational risks and labor intensity of repeated adjustments at height.
[0035] Step 4: Reinforcement and Overall Acceptance. Diagonal bracing rods 11 are installed between the U-shaped top support 1 and the screw rod 2 in four directions to further reinforce the upper structure. After all components are installed, all connection nodes are thoroughly inspected to ensure that the connecting pins 8, fastening bolts 9, and fastening nuts 10 are all tightened in place, and that the diagonal support rods 4 provide stable support. The entire corner support device is confirmed to fully meet design requirements. This step, by adding diagonal bracing rods 11, greatly enhances the overall rigidity and resistance to lateral deformation in the U-shaped top support 1 area, effectively preventing possible displacement during concrete pouring. Comprehensive acceptance ensures the safety and reliability of the entire support system.
