[0029] When using the above-mentioned device, the ballast inside the ballast box 1 is first pre-treated, and piled into a standard crushed stone track bed according to railway standards. After the test bench is installed, the required clamping force is set. First, using a regular wrench, the screw sleeves on both sides of the clamping arm mechanism are rotated so that the clamping arm is positioned diagonally above the rail and can contact the rail through the rotating positioning block. The positioning block is adjusted to the required angle, and the positioning block is tightened to the clamping arm with bolts using a regular wrench. Since the clamping force is converted from the torque of the screw sleeve into axial force, Then, along the screw, intermediate connector, clamping arm, and positioning block, the force finally acts on the rail. Using the known angles between the positioning block and the rail, the clamping arm and the positioning block, the clamping arm and the intermediate connector, and the intermediate connector and the screw, the axial force of the screw sleeve corresponding to the set clamping force is calculated by theoretical mechanics. Then, using the formula for the relationship between axial force and torque, the torque of the screw sleeve is obtained. By using a torque wrench, the screw sleeve is rotated to make the screw extend axially outward, so that it reaches the preset torque, that is, the set clamping force is achieved.
[0030] After setting the clamping force, set the required downward pressure. Use a regular wrench to simultaneously rotate the stepped screws of the four adjustment units to lower the top plate horizontally to the original length of the compression spring. Based on the required downward pressure, obtain the downward displacement of the nut sleeve rod from the known spring stiffness. Then, calculate the number of rotations of the stepped screw from the screw pitch. Finally, use a regular wrench to simultaneously rotate the stepped screw to the required number of rotations to achieve the set downward pressure.
[0031] This vibration test bench also includes an accelerometer, a displacement sensor, a data acquisition card, a signal amplifier, and a computer. The accelerometer and displacement sensor are connected to the data acquisition card, which is connected to the computer via the signal amplifier. Six accelerometers and six displacement sensors are installed at the geometric center of the upper surface and sides of three sleepers. Other sensors can be added as needed for data acquisition.
[0032] After setting the downforce, start the speed-regulating motor and adjust it to the same speed as the set frequency by converting the frequency to the rotational speed. Then, data signal acquisition can begin. After the data information to be measured is acquired, turn off the speed-regulating motor and unload the downforce and clamping force. Based on different frequencies, clamping forces, and downforces, analyze the impact and degree of the dynamic stabilization vehicle on the settlement of sleepers or ballast, sleeper wear, and fatigue of spring fasteners between rails and sleepers.
