Sliding cutter sheeting for trench driving for carrying out pipe-laying work in the ground

摘要

The invention relates to sliding cutter sheeting for trench driving for carrying out pipe-laying work in the ground, with a leading shield (10) and a trailing shield (11) which is connected subsequent to the leading shield (10) and secures the trench in the pipe-laying area and into which the individual pipe sections (13'') can be inserted and put down on a pipe bed (14) laid in the trench. According to the invention, not only is the trailing shield (11) open at the floor (20) but so too is the leading shield (10) so that the leading shield can also be utilised as a working space for laying the pipes. The trailing shield (11) can thereby be shortened by roughly the length of the leading shield. <IMAGE>
