Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9319253A1] A cutting shield for digging open trenches in the ground has at least three superimposed sheeting elements that are movable with respect to each other in the longitudinal direction and that support the side walls (2) of the trench. Each sheeting element has a pair of opposite blades (6) for staying and supporting the side walls (2) of the trench and two traverses (8) which link the blades (6) of each pair of blades (6), forming a framework. The superimposed sheeting elements are mutually linked by at least one advance jack (20). The linking spots between each advance jack (20) and the upper blade (6) on the one hand and the lover blade (6) on the other hand are horizontally offset. The two last pairs of blades (6) nearest to the bottom (4) of the trench are supported by staying means on the bottom (4) of the trench.
