DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cutter bit exchanging device suitable for a shield excavator requiring a long excavation (excavation) distance.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, the distance that a shield machine can excavate without changing a cutter bit of a cutter disk is one.
In recent years, in order to reduce the cost required for tunnel excavation work, there is a tendency to extend the excavation distance per shield excavator and excavate a long distance. However, when excavating a long distance, replacement work due to wear and breakage of the cutter bit is indispensable. Conventional techniques relating to cutter bit replacement in a shield machine are as follows.

[0003] A shield excavator without a cutter bit replacement device is generally used. In this case, a replacement operation is performed by injecting a chemical solution into a ground in front of a cutter disk, solidifying the ground, and then grounding the ground. A pit is dug to make a working space in front of the cutter disc. Then, the worker descends into the space, removes the cutter bit arranged in front of the cutter disk, and replaces it with a new cutter bit.

[0004] A cutter disk provided on the front surface of a shield machine is retracted in a radial direction so that the diameter of the cutter disk can be reduced. The cutter disk is mounted on a spherical support in the machine. With a spherical support and a rotating mechanism, the front of the cutter disk is turned backward in the excavator, and the operator removes the cutter bit on the front of the cutter disk in the excavator and replaces it with a new one. It has been proposed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-2439).
No. 2, JP-A-6-200693).

[0005] The cutter spoke of the cutter disk can be turned around an axis extending radially from the center, and the cutter bit is attached to a plurality of circumferentially spaced surfaces of the cutter spoke. There is proposed a structure in which a damaged cutter bit is closed by rotating a cutter spoke when a replacement is necessary, and a new cutter bit is exposed on the front side (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 7-224595 and 8). -199980).

[0006]

The replacement of the cutter bit according to the above-mentioned prior art has the following problems to be solved.

[0007] Bit replacement by chemical injection and shaft excavation: The cost of chemical injection is high, the construction period is long, and it takes a long time to replace the cutter bit. Also, it is difficult to secure land for excavating the shaft.

[0008] Bit replacement by a spherical support: the operation of rotating a spherical support by reducing the diameter of a cutter disk is difficult and time-consuming, and the cost of manufacturing a spherical support and a shield machine equipped with this rotation mechanism is very high. High.

[0009] Bit replacement by turning the cutter spoke: Even if a part of the cutter bit is worn or damaged, the cutter spoke is turned by a predetermined angle to expose the cutter bits arranged in another row. It is very uneconomical to replace an undamaged cutter bit with a damaged cutter bit. In addition, the locations (positions) where the cutter bits are likely to be worn and damaged are generally constant, so the cutter spokes must be rotated for a short excavation distance and replaced with other rows of cutter bits. Depending on the number of rows of cutter bits provided, the excavation distance may not be extended as expected.

[0010] The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and can replace only a cutter bit that has become unusable due to wear or damage, and has a structure that is smaller than that of an excavator that does not include a cutter bit replacement device. Almost unchanged,
It is another object of the present invention to provide a cutter bit exchanging device for a shield excavator, which requires only a small increase in cost and is much less expensive to manufacture than an excavator having a spherical support.

[0011]
