Abstract
A prestressed tensioning device and a reinforcement method that is suitable for shield tunnels, pertaining to the technical field of shield tunnel construction and reinforcement technology. The device comprises: two sets of reinforcement components, wherein the reinforcement components are arranged opposite each other; a prestressing component disposed between the two sets of reinforcement components; and a prestressing rod disposed within the prestressing component. The prestressing rod is subjected to prestress tensioning by the prestressing component, wherein both ends of the prestressing rod extend beyond the prestressing component. Both ends of the prestressing rod are connected to the two sets of reinforcement components via high-strength nuts. The present invention utilizes an articulated structure, enabling the reinforcement components to adapt to handhole angles of tunnel segments with varying diameters, and is suitable for application within confined and smooth annular structures.
