Research on coupling dynamic characteristics and parameter influence of TBM cutterhead system
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: As an important system of TBM, the host system bears the impact of unstable load from itself and the strong load of the rock in the geological layer during operation, which causes irregular vibration of the host system, resulting in low tunneling efficiency, and is more likely to cause cutterhead cracking and component damage. To this end, with the help of analysis software such as Matlab and Ansys, the intrinsic characteristics and vibration response of the host system are studied, and the specific parameters of the vibration influencing factors are discussed. The results show that the axial displacement of the center block of the cutterhead is the largest, reaching 0.85 mm, and the longitudinal displacement value is about 2-3 times of the transverse displacement; in the design stage, the mass of the central block should be controlled in the range of 50 %-55 %, and the rest of the cutterhead should be controlled in the range of 12.5 %-13.5 %; the vibration is the smallest under the uniform layout of the gear, the fluctuation of the solid short shaft connection of the motor is relatively stable, and the maximum vibration value does not exceed 3.5e-2 mm.
