Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soil testing technology, specifically to a device for testing the shear strength of cement-stabilized soil. Background Technology
[0002] To systematically evaluate the long-term performance of Class A4 soil in cement-soil subbases, it is necessary to monitor and analyze the performance of Class A4 soil under different environmental conditions. This will allow for a deeper understanding of the changes in key performance indicators such as compressive strength, shear strength, durability, deformation characteristics, and permeability of Class A4 soil over long-term use, and to assess the impact of external environmental factors such as climate and traffic loads on the long-term performance of Class A4 soil. Therefore, to ensure the stability and reliability of Class A4 soil in practical engineering applications, it is necessary to use testing equipment (i.e., a direct shear tester) to detect and analyze the shear strength of Class A4 soil in road construction.
[0003] However, existing direct shear testers require multiple screws to position and fix the upper box before placing the ring cutter sample into the shearing chamber for testing. This operation is cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive, and can easily affect the testing efficiency of the direct shear tester. After the test is completed, the tester needs to manually scrape off the broken part of the sample from the lower box to facilitate the subsequent detection of moisture content near the shear surface. Manual scraping reduces efficiency and is cumbersome. Furthermore, the residual debris from the sample tends to adhere to the inner wall surface of the lower box, making cleaning difficult.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a shear strength testing device for cement-stabilized soil, including a base 1. The bottom of the base 1 is provided with two sliding clips to facilitate the insertion of the shear box 2 into the direct shear tester. The shear box 2 is provided on the base 1. The shear box 2 includes a lower box 3 and an upper box 4. The upper box 4 is placed on top of the lower box 3. The upper box 4 has four through holes 401.
[0025] The bottom of the lower box 3 has a rectangular groove 301 that communicates with the interior of the lower box 3. The lower box 3 has two movable through grooves 302 that communicate with the interior of the rectangular groove 301. The lower box 3 also has four through holes 303 that communicate with the interior of the rectangular groove 301.
[0026] A positioning component 5 is fitted inside the rectangular groove 301. The positioning component 5 includes a rectangular frame 501, on which four positioning rods 502 are vertically mounted. A spring 503 is fitted on the outer surface of each positioning rod 502. The positioning rods 502 engage with through holes 303 and their top surfaces engage with through holes 401. Two sliders 5012 are mounted on the rectangular frame 501. Two sliding grooves 304 are formed inside the rectangular groove 301. The sliders 5012 engage with the sliding grooves 304 to ensure that the rectangular frame 501 can move stably within the rectangular groove 301.
[0027] Two movable blocks 5011 are provided on the rectangular frame 501. Each movable block 5011 mates with a movable through slot 302. One end of the movable through slot 302, away from the rectangular frame 501, passes through the slot. An L-shaped rod 504 is provided at the end of the movable through slot 302 away from the rectangular frame 501. A horizontal plate 505 is horizontally provided at one end of each L-shaped rod 504. A T-shaped block 506 is provided on the horizontal plate 505, and a threaded hole is provided on the T-shaped block. A locking bolt 507 is threaded onto the T-block 506. The T-block 506 has a threaded hole, and the locking bolt 507 fits into the threaded hole. The lower box 3 has a limiting groove 305, and one end of the locking bolt 507 fits into the limiting groove 305, which facilitates the fixing of the positioning component 5 as a whole. The T-block 506 is provided with a pull ring, which makes it easy to pull the T-block 506 upward. The end of the locking bolt 507 away from the limiting groove 305 is provided with a handle, which makes it easy to rotate the locking bolt 507.
[0028] Before conducting the shear strength test, the shear box 2 is first inserted into the two slots on the operating table of the direct shearing instrument via the two sliding clips at the bottom of the base 1. Then, the upper box 4 is placed at the bottom of the lower box 3, aligning the four through holes 401 on the upper box 4 with the four through holes 303 on the lower box 3. Next, the pull ring on the T-block 506 is pulled upward, causing the horizontal plate 505 to move upward and pulling the two L-shaped rods 504 upward. Through the cooperation of the movable block 5011 and the movable through slot 302, the two movable blocks 5011 slide within their respective movable through slots 302. The rectangular frame 501 is pulled upward within the rectangular groove 301. This upward movement causes the four positioning rods 502 on the frame to slide within their corresponding through holes 303. The limiting rings at the top of the springs 503 press against the inner wall of the rectangular groove 301, causing the four springs 503 to contract on the outer surface of their respective positioning rods 502. This contraction of the springs 503 causes the tops of the positioning rods 502 to slide upward within the through hole 303 and out of the through hole 303 into the through hole 401 on the upper box 4. When the four positioning rods... After the top of the positioning rod 502 slides into the four through holes 401 on the upper box 4, the locking bolt 507, which is threaded onto the T-block 506, is turned by the shank on the locking bolt 507. This causes one end of the locking bolt 507 to contact and press against the inner wall surface of the limiting groove 305 on the lower box 3, thus fixing the T-block 506. This keeps the rectangular frame 501 in place within the rectangular groove 301, achieving the positioning and fixing of the upper box 4. Then, the sample is placed into the space between the upper box 4 and the lower box 3, so that the upper half of the sample... The upper part is located in the upper box 4, and the lower part is located in the lower box 3. After the sample is placed, the handle on the locking bolt 507 is turned so that one end of the locking bolt 507 is separated from the limiting groove 305. Through the rebound force of the four springs 503, the four positioning rods 502 are moved down and separated from the four through holes 401 on the upper box 4. Then the top cap is put into the upper box 4 and connected to the vertical pressure system on the straight shear instrument. Then one side of the lower box 3 is connected to the horizontal pressure system. Then the straight shear instrument is operated to test the shear strength of the sample placed on the shear box 2.
[0029] The bottom inner wall of the lower box 3 is fitted with a lifting scraper 7. A lifting cleaning assembly 6 is located at the center of the bottom of the lifting scraper 7. The lifting cleaning assembly 6 includes a screw 601 and a rotating rod 604. A circular groove is provided on the base 1, and the screw 601 is rotatably fitted into the groove. A drive disc 602 is threaded onto the outer surface of the screw 601. Three connecting rods 6021 are provided on the drive disc 602. A lifting disc 606 is located at the bottom end of each of the three connecting rods 6021. The bottom surface is interference-fitted with a driven bevel gear 603, and one end of the rotating rod 604 is interference-fitted with a driving bevel gear 605. The driven bevel gear 603 meshes with the driving bevel gear 605. A through hole is provided on the lower box 3. The surface of the rotating rod 604 away from the driving bevel gear 605 is rotatably fitted in the through hole. The end of the rotating rod 604 away from the driving bevel gear 605 passes through the through hole. A turntable 6041 is provided at the end of the rotating rod 604 away from the driving bevel gear 605, which can facilitate the rotation of the rotating rod 604.
[0030] After completing the shear strength test, in order to facilitate the detection of moisture content near the shear surface of the sample and to clean up the remaining broken samples in the lower box 3, it is necessary to remove some samples from the lower box 3. First, rotate the turntable 6041 so that the rotating rod 604 rotates in the rectangular groove 301. The rotation of the rotating rod 604 causes the driving bevel gear 605 at one end of the rotating rod 604 to rotate. Through the meshing of the driven bevel gear 603 with the driving bevel gear 605, the driven bevel gear 603 rotates and drives the screw 601 to the center of the top surface of the base 1. The rotation of the screw 601 causes the drive disc 602 to move upward on the outer surface of the screw 601, which in turn causes the lifting disc 606 to move upward via the three connecting rods 6021. The upward movement of the lifting disc 606 pushes the lifting scraper 7 to move upward within the lower box 3. The friction between the outer surface of the lifting scraper 7 and the inner wall of the lower box 3 causes the broken sample in the lower box 3 to be pushed upward and pushed out, and the sample residue remaining on the inner wall surface of the lower box 3 is scraped off, thus achieving rapid removal of the broken sample from the lower box 3.
