Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of rock mechanics testing, and in particular to a device and method for visualizing seepage flow testing of shear fracture of rock structural surfaces under true triaxial testing. Background Art

[0002] As an important branch of geological engineering, rock mechanics plays an irreplaceable role in ensuring engineering safety and improving resource utilization efficiency. The rock structural surface is the interface between units with different mechanical properties within the rock mass. Its shear fracture process is often accompanied by the release of energy and the redistribution of stress, which has a significant impact on the overall mechanical behavior of the rock. The seepage process in the rock is closely related to factors such as the structure, porosity, and permeability of the rock, and has an important influence on the mechanical properties and hydrogeological conditions of the rock. In-depth research on the mechanical behavior and seepage characteristics of the rock structural surface during the shear fracture process has important guiding significance for revealing the failure mechanism of the rock, predicting the stability of the engineering structure, and optimizing the engineering design and construction.

[0003] Most of the existing rock shear fracture seepage test devices can only simulate uniaxial stress conditions and cannot truly reflect the mechanical behavior and seepage characteristics of rocks under complex stress environments. The test results under uniaxial stress conditions are often unable to accurately predict the performance of rocks in actual projects, resulting in errors and increased risks in engineering design and construction. In addition, the existing test devices also have certain limitations in observation methods. Traditional observation methods can often only obtain the deformation and fracture conditions of the rock surface, and cannot intuitively observe and analyze the seepage process and fluid flow conditions inside the rock. The above reasons have led to certain difficulties in deeply understanding the rock seepage mechanism. Therefore, the development of a true triaxial rock structural surface shear fracture visualization seepage test device is of great value for in-depth research on rock seepage mechanisms and improving the accuracy of rock strength predictions.

After the lower shear box and the upper shear box are closed, a closed sample cavity is formed for clamping the rock sample and the transparent block. At the same time, the water injection cavity one and the water injection cavity two form a seepage cavity. The inlet of the water injection cavity one is connected to one end of the seepage water inlet pipe, and the outlet of the water injection cavity two is connected to one end of the seepage water outlet pipe. The upper plate of the upper shear box is embedded with a transparent block, and the transparent block is in direct contact with the top surface of the rock sample. The upper cover of the upper shear box is rigidly connected to the upper pressure head. A slot is provided at the bottom of the upper pressure head.

The edge of the partition plate fits tightly with the lower sealing strip and the upper sealing strip to form a double-layer sealing structure. The seepage water inlet seal and the seepage water outlet seal are fixed to the inlet / outlet of the seepage cavity by bolts, and form a multi-layer pressure-resistant sealing system with the lower sealing strip, the upper sealing strip, and the partition plate.

[0057] ;

[0058] The length of the transparent block should be less than L and greater than 0.5L and 1.5H, and the width of the transparent block should be half of the length; the length, width and height of the rock sample should be consistent with those of the transparent block.

[0059] In this embodiment, it also includes: a lateral pressure plate, a normal deformation measurement component 604, a tangential deformation measurement component 210, and a lateral deformation measurement component 404; one end of the normal deformation measurement component 604 is fixedly connected to the upper pressure head 601, and the other end is in contact with the surface of the upper cover 301 of the upper shear box 3. The upper pressure head 601 is in contact with the transparent block. When the rock sample undergoes normal deformation, the upper pressure head 601 moves with the transparent block, driving the normal deformation measurement component 604 to expand and contract, and measuring the normal displacement in real time; one end of the tangential deformation measurement component 210 is fixedly connected to the force transmission block of the lower shear box 2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the force transmission block of the lower shear box 2. Abutting against the surface of the upper cover 301 of the upper shear box 3, the upper shear box 3 and the lower shear box 2 undergo tangential relative displacement, and the shear force is transmitted through the force transmission block. The tangential deformation measuring assembly 210 expands and contracts with the displacement to measure the tangential displacement in real time; the lateral pressure plate includes a lateral pressure plate I4 and a lateral pressure plate II5, and the two ends of the lateral deformation measuring assembly 404 are respectively fixed to the pressure plate of the lateral pressure plate I4 and the pressure plate of the lateral pressure plate II5 by bolts. After the lateral pressure plate is subjected to lateral loading by the true triaxial testing machine, the pressure plate pushes the rock sample to generate lateral deformation, and the lateral deformation measuring assembly 404 measures the lateral strain through the displacement difference at both ends.

[0060] Specifically, the deformation measuring device is arranged in the shear box device, including a normal deformation measuring component 604, a tangential deformation measuring component 210, and a lateral deformation measuring component 404; one end of the normal deformation measuring component 604 is installed and fixed on the upper pressure head 601, and the other end is pressed on the upper cover 301 of the upper shear box 3. During the test, the normal deformation measuring component 604 and the upper pressure head 601 are integrated. Since the upper pressure head 601 is tightly attached to the transparent block, when the rock structure surface sample below the transparent block undergoes normal deformation, the upper pressure head 601 also moves in the normal direction accordingly. The end of the normal deformation measuring component 604 fixed on the upper pressure head 601 also moves in the normal direction with the upper pressure head 601, and the end of the normal deformation measuring component 604 pressed on the upper cover 301 of the upper shear box 3 does not move, and is used to measure the normal deformation of the rock structure surface sample during the test by extending and retracting the deformation head toward the deformation measuring component 604; the tangential deformation measuring component 210 and the normal deformation measuring component 604 The components have the same structure, one end is fixed on the first force transmission block 203 of the lower shear box 2, and the other end is pressed on the upper cover 301 of the upper shear box 3. During the test, the tangential deformation measuring component 210 and the lower shear box 2 are integrated, and the end fixed on the lower shear box 2 does not move. When the upper shear box 3 moves tangentially due to shear, the end of the tangential deformation measuring component 210 pressing on the upper shear box 3 also moves tangentially. Through the expansion and contraction of the tangential deformation measuring component 210, it is used to measure the tangential deformation of the rock structure surface sample during the test; the lateral deformation measuring component 404, the two ends of which are respectively fixed on the first pressure plate 402 of the lateral pressure plate I4 and the second pressure plate 502 of the lateral pressure plate II5. During the test, the deformation head of the lateral deformation measuring component 404 also expands and contracts as the first pressure plate 402 and the second pressure plate 502 move laterally. Through the expansion and contraction of the deformation head of the lateral deformation measuring component 404, it is used to measure the lateral deformation of the rock structure surface sample during the test.
