PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a tunnel excavator formed to have such a small length that can be easily installed irrespective of small area of a starting shaft and capable of laying a sewer pipe or the like by burying following pipe bodies while excavating a tunnel having very small diameter from the starting shaft toward an arrival shaft. SOLUTION: This shield excavator is composed of a motor unit A provided with a hydraulic motor being shorter than an electric motor and used as a motor 4 for driving a cutter head 2 and a valve unit B arranged by following the motor unit A which are provided in a shield body 1 having the cutter head 2 protruding rotatably at a front end. A middle-folding mechanism 7 is provided on a valve unit B side to form diameter of the whole excavator into small diameter. The length of the excavator is reduced as much as possible to install it in the starting shaft easily and bury a pipe line having a small diameter. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
