[0002] The influence of joints and fissures on the seepage characteristics of loess is particularly important. Seepage, that is, the flow of water in the soil, plays a decisive role in the engineering stability and water resource management of loess areas. Due to the influence of complex factors such as pebbles, pores and wormholes, there is a lot of uncertainty in the seepage test of natural loess joints. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct loess seepage tests under the conditions of controlling joint morphology to explore the influence of joints on loess seepage erosion. At present, the existing seepage tests on loess with joints have no way to accurately control the shape and opening of the joints, nor can they directly and clearly observe the evolution process of the joint morphology, which limits the in-depth understanding and application of the seepage characteristics of loess. Summary of the invention

[0033] The utility model is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0034] See also Figure 1 The utility model provides a visual test device for simulating seepage behavior of loess with joints, including a water permeable unit 10 and a water seepage unit. The water inlet unit, the water permeable unit 10 and the water seepage unit are sequentially connected from bottom to top.
[0035] The water inlet unit includes a water inlet 1, a water flow control switch 2, a flow meter 4, a water pump 5 and a water inlet pressure chamber 7. One end of the water flow control switch 2 is connected to the water inlet 1, and the other end of the water flow control switch 2 is connected to the flow meter 4 through a connecting pipe 3. The flow meter 4 is connected to the water pump 5 through the connecting pipe 3. The water pump 5 is connected to the water inlet pressure chamber 7 through a silicone tube 6. The inner diameter of the silicone tube 6 is 10 mm. A pressure gauge 9 is installed on one side of the water inlet pressure chamber 7. The water inlet pressure chamber 7 is filled with glass beads as anti-filter material 8. The water inlet pressure chamber 7 is connected directly below the permeable unit 10. The water outlet area of the water inlet pressure chamber 7 is the same as the bottom area of the loess joint sample, and the water outlet area of the permeable unit 10 is the same as the bottom area of the loess joint sample.
[0036] The seepage unit includes a semi-cylindrical side plate 12, a rectangular side plate 13 and a top plate 15. The flat side of the seepage unit is the rectangular side plate 13, and the curved side is the semi-cylindrical side plate 12. The semi-cylindrical side plate 12 is fixedly connected to the rectangular side plate 13 to form a semi-cylinder, and the top plate 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the semi-cylinder. The semi-cylindrical side plate 12 and the top plate 15 are both made of aluminum alloy, and the rectangular side plate 13 is made of organic glass. A high-definition digital camera 19 is installed on one side of the rectangular side plate 13. By observing the transparent rectangular side plate 13, the evolution of the joint morphology during the seepage process of the sample can be observed in real time. Figure 4 As shown, a water outlet 14 is provided at the center of the upper edge of the rectangular side plate 13, and a collecting bucket 18 is provided below the water outlet 14. The collecting bucket 18 is provided on one side of the water inlet pressure chamber 7 to collect water and particles flowing out of the water outlet 14. A pressure gauge 9 is provided on the top plate 15. The loess joint sample is placed inside the semi-cylinder of the seepage unit. When preparing the joint sample, Figure 6 The bottom plate 16 shown is installed at the bottom of the semi-cylinder, and the rectangular side plate 13 is a joint-shaped plate 17, such as Figure 5 As shown, the side plate is a rectangular side plate 13 during the test. The joint morphology in the test is controllable, and loess joint samples with different joint morphologies can be obtained by changing the shape of the joint morphology making plate 17. The joint morphology making plate 17 uses the convex volume to determine the joint opening, and there is a certain thickness of base on the inner side of the side plate to prevent the joint from being close to the side plate and ensure that the sample has a through joint.

[0039] 1) Take the sieved and dried loess and put it into the semi-cylinder of the water seepage unit for compaction.

[0040] 2) After the loess joint sample is stable for 24 hours, the joint morphology plate 17 is replaced with a rectangular side plate 13, and the bottom plate 16 is removed, and the permeable unit 10 is connected. The upper end of the permeable unit 10 is embedded in the permeable stone 11. At this time, the joint opening and shape are known;
[0041] 3) Connect the connected water seepage unit and water permeable unit 10 to the water inlet pressure chamber 7 filled with reverse filter material 8;
[0042] 4) Connect the water inlet pressure chamber 7 and the water pump 5 through the silicone tube 6, connect the water inlet 1, the water flow control switch 2, the flow meter 4 and the water pump 5 in sequence through the connecting pipe 3, and keep the water flow control switch 2 in the closed state;
[0043] 5) When starting the test, turn on the water flow control switch 2, observe the flow rate of the flow meter 4, and adjust the flow rate to the required value and in a stable state;
[0044] 6) A high-definition digital camera 19 installed on one side of the rectangular side plate 14 of the seepage unit records the seepage conditions of water in the loess sample containing joints, and the image information is used to analyze the evolution of the joint morphology during the process of water inflow and infiltration; a flow meter 4 is used to record the flow rate per unit time, and a collecting tube 18 is used to collect water and particles flowing out of the outlet 14. These data are combined with the image information to analyze the influence of joints on the seepage erosion of loess.
