Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tunneling shield with a pressure chamber in the front of the shield sealed by a transverse wall to the rear, limited from the front by the working face, and a working device arranged in this on the transverse wall for removing the material present on the working face, the bottom area of the working chamber one or more suction pipes are provided, via which the mined soil material can be conveyed out of the mining chamber by means of a feed pump in a liquid circulation circuit.
  • Such a driving shield is known from DE-AS 24 31 512.
  • the excavation space is filled with a pressurized thixotropic support liquid, with which the removed material is brought out of the extraction space into the rear, pressure-free area of the shield by means of a feed pump, the support liquid pumped out of the extraction space with the removed material being constantly replaced.
  • a pivoting removal arm with a rotatable cutting head serves as the working device, the suction being carried out on the one hand directly on the cutting head and on the other hand on the floor of the removal space.
  • the well-known tunneling shield can only be used for wet conveying with a liquid-supported face and can therefore not be run dry on sufficiently stable floors. It is also not possible to use it on soils that contain layers of rubble and constant stone obstacles. In the case of individual stone obstacles, the excavation process must be interrupted and the obstacle must be removed manually, ie it is necessary to enter the excavation space under pressure.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a tunneling shield of the type mentioned, which can be used even with strongly changing soil types with obstacles embedded therein, which does not require access to the excavation space to salvage obstacles, and in which the mined material is not only wet, but can also be conveyed dry without conversion if necessary.
  • the working device consists of at least one gripper arm with a replaceable removal tool, that a grate is provided at a distance above the suction pipes as a passage for the flushable floor material, and that in addition to the grate in the transverse wall, a lock for Removal of the mining material and stones that have not been let through by the grate is arranged.
  • the tunneling shield according to the invention can be used under all conceivable conditions, namely with loose to very solid soils, with rolling to cohesive soils and with soils that contain layers of debris and constant stone obstacles, the excavation space depending on the soil conditions with compressed air, water or a supporting fluid or also can be filled with a combination of compressed air and liquid, ie it can be conveyed wet or dry.
  • wet conveying the soil is pre-sorted over the grate. Scree, stones and blocks can be transported above the grate via the lock in special vehicles and driven dry.
  • the interchangeability of the preferably hydraulically driven dismantling tool enables the attachment of the appropriate tool for the soil conditions.
  • the basic tool used here is an excavator in the form of a shovel or a spoon, while, for example, if a large stone obstacle is found, the excavator is replaced by a hydraulic hammer in order to crush the stone. All of these mining operations can be controlled from outside the mining area.
  • the gripper arm can be moved back into a maintenance space that can be partitioned off from the dismantling chamber, the tool change and any necessary repair can also be carried out under atmospheric air pressure.
  • the gripping arm is preferably attached to a vertically running rotating ring. In this way, the removal tool can reach all parts of the working face up to the shield edge.
  • a gripping arm arranged centrally in the extraction space is sufficient.
  • probing knives which can be extended hydraulically independently of one another in the cutting edge of the shield. These probing knives can be used, for example, to locate stone obstacles or as a hood for support when recovering stones. However, they can also be extended before the shield is driven, which can significantly reduce the driving forces.
  • ring-shaped breast sheeting plates which can be driven hydraulically independently of one another at the front end of the shield in the central and upper region thereof and which can be pivoted radially from a starting position, in which they run approximately parallel to the jacket of the shield, into a supporting position in which they Block the front opening of the sign according to the size of its surface.
  • the upper area of the working face can be supported, for example, during dry extraction, while a stone obstacle is salvaged from the lower area.
  • the shield jacket 1 of the tunneling shield shown in FIG. 1 is designed as a double jacket with a shield cutting edge 2 at the front end.
  • the shield jacket 1 encloses a transverse wall 3 in the front part of the shield, which separates a front extraction chamber 4 from the rear part of the tunnel shield with complete sealing.
  • the removal chamber 4 extends with its front end to the working face 5.
  • a gripper arm 6, Approximately in the middle of the transverse wall 3 there is a gripper arm 6, at the front end of which a removal tool is detachably attached.
  • the mining tool consists of an excavator 7 in the form of a gripper or spoon.
  • the gripper arm can be controlled hydraulically by means of several piston-cylinder units in order to dismantle the base on the face 5.
  • the working face consists of sand, so that support with compressed air is not possible.
  • the support chamber 4 is therefore provided with a thixotropic support liquid, e.g. filled with bentonite.
  • openings of suction pipes 11 are arranged, which are connected to a pump, not shown, which conveys the thixotropic liquid with the conveyed soil that has fallen through the grate 9 out of the mining chamber.
  • the support liquid entrained in the process is fed back into the degradation chamber 4 via an inlet after cleaning, so that the level of the support liquid is kept constant there.
  • the removal tool is actuated from a control station 12, which is behind the transverse wall 3 in the pressure loose space of the heading shield. From there, the face can also be displayed and measured on a screen. All manipulations that are required when dismantling the working face are controlled from the control station 12. Through a window in the transverse wall 3, it is also possible to observe and control the dismantling process and the manipulations associated with it.
  • a lock 13 is provided, which for safety reasons is provided with two gate valves 14 and which serves to discharge degraded material that has not fallen through the grate 9.
  • the lock 13 there is a conveyor belt 15 with which the stones are conveyed into a carriage 16 for removal.
  • probing knives 17 are arranged in a ring on the entire circumference, which can be hydraulically extended forwards independently of the shield cutting edge. These probing knives 17 perform various functions. On the one hand, they can be used to locate stone obstacles in the cutting area. However, they can also be extended - for example in the upper area of the sign - and thereby secure the embankment on the face. However, they can also be driven up individually and thus create a cavity into which the shield jacket can enter. As a result, the shield driving forces can be kept low, since a pressure vault cannot form in front of the shield, and uplifts, breaks and subsidence are also low.
  • the probing knives can be extended to different extents and pressed forward individually, in groups or all together. Your drive cylinders are outside the pressurized extraction chamber.
  • breast sheeting plates 18 are attached to the front end of the shield jacket, which can be pivoted radially inward up to about 90 ° from the rest position shown, in which they run approximately parallel to the shield jacket, so that they face the face with their surface support what is explained in more detail below.
  • the breast sheeting panels can also be moved independently of one another.
  • the control of the breast lining plates 18 is carried out from the control station 12, as is the control of the probing knives 17.
  • Stones can be located by the probing knife 17 when a stone is in the area of the shield cutting edge, in the remaining area of the face the stone is located by the excavator 7, or by seismics, by sound transducers and by pressure displays.
  • Fig. 2 shows the salvage of a stone that has been located in the upper area of the shield edge.
  • the stone is recovered with the support of the lower part of the excavation chamber with a thixotropic liquid and compressed air in the upper part of the excavation chamber, so that the salvage can take place under visual contact.
  • FIG. 3 shows the salvage of a stone that has been located in the lower region of the shield edge, the entire excavation chamber being filled with support liquid as in FIG. 1.
  • Fig. 4 shows the stone salvage in the extraction chamber 4 under compressed air, the upper area of the working face being supported by the inward-pivoting breast shoring panels. If necessary, the lower part of the working face, which is not supported by the breast sheeting, can be sealed and secured with a thixotropic liquid.
  • the interchangeability of the excavation tool offers the possibility of replacing the excavator with a drilling or splitting device to the stone to shred.
  • the gripping arm 6 is out of the removal chamber 4 to the rear into a maintenance space 19 retractable, which is under atmospheric pressure and can be sealed off against the extraction chamber. The tool can then be exchanged in the maintenance chamber under atmospheric pressure conditions, and repair work can also be carried out there.
  • dismantling tools can of course also be attached to the gripper arm if the nature of the soil to be dismantled requires it.
  • injection equipment can also be attached to the gripper arm in order to secure the working face by ground consolidation. If necessary, the installation of a drilling device is also possible.
  • FIG. 6a shows a tunneling shield designed according to the invention, which does not contain any breast sheeting plates.
  • the probing knives 17 are distributed uniformly over the circumference.
  • two gripping arms are arranged side by side, which have all the associated devices, i.e. a left and right steering position 12, a left and right stone lock 13 and a left and right grate 9 with associated washing chamber 10. Both gripper arms are - as described above - retractable into a maintenance room, so that one of the gripper arms can work while the other can be repaired in the pressureless maintenance room or equipped with an appropriate removal tool.
  • Fig. 6b shows a front view of a jacking plate as in Fig. 6a, but with additional equipment with breast sheeting plates 18.
  • the shoring plates are in out shown driving state, in which they perform their support function for the working face, while they are shown in the left part of Fig. 6b in the retracted state.
  • the shoring plates do not extend over the entire circumference, but only over the middle and upper part over a circumferential angle of approximately 200 °.
