Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of rock mechanics test equipment, and in particular to a stable water pressure loading device for rock mechanics indoor tests. Background Art
[0002] As the buried depth of tunnels (tunnels and chambers) in transportation, water conservancy and mining engineering gradually increases, the strata they pass through also become more complex. Under the action of excavation disturbance stress and fissure water, water inrush disasters occur frequently, causing serious construction delays and economic losses. In order to reveal the fracture and instability mechanism of deeply buried rock mass under the action of fissure water pressure, domestic and foreign scholars have carried out a large number of indoor hydraulic coupling test studies on fractured specimens. Due to the wide distribution range of underground aquifers, the fracture water pressure remains basically stable with the expansion of rock mass cracks during excavation. Stable fracture water pressure is the main factor causing rock mass fracture and instability and inducing water inrush disasters. The current indoor test research mainly uses servo pumps for hydraulic loading, which can maintain the stability of fracture water pressure in the early stage of fracture expansion. However, when the crack enters the unstable expansion stage, the crack expands very rapidly, resulting in a large expansion in a very short time. The servo pump is unable to provide an equal volume of high-pressure water, resulting in a rapid decrease in fracture water pressure. In addition, when the fracture water pressure drops to the servo pump response threshold, the servo pump cannot accurately increase the water pressure in a small range, and it is easy to exceed the set value during the pressure increase process to produce a shock effect. Therefore, the crack expansion using the traditional servo water pressure loading method is completed under the action of unstable fracture water pressure, which is inconsistent with the actual engineering situation. In order to solve the problem of stable water pressure loading, some scholars use high-pressure gas sources to assist in applying stable water pressure, but the generation and storage of high-pressure gas poses a safety hazard, and it is also difficult to replenish pressure when long-term stable high water pressure output is required.
[0003] In summary, there is still a problem in the current rock hydraulic coupling test research that water pressure is difficult to load stably. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art and to provide a stable water pressure loading device for rock mechanics indoor experiments.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] Specifically, the device includes a mounting platform, a test model, a water outlet pipe, a water outlet valve, a pull rod type piston, a water pressure gauge, a water injection valve, a water injection pipe, a piston pull rod and a pulley loading system;
[0007] The connection relationship is:
[0008] A test model, a tie rod type piston and a pulley loading system are arranged on the mounting platform;
[0009] The test model, the water outlet pipe, the water outlet valve, the tie rod type piston, the piston tie rod and the pulley loading system are connected in sequence;
[0010] A water pressure gauge, a water injection valve and a water injection pipe are sequentially connected to the lower part of the outer wall of the pull rod type piston.
[0011] The present invention has the following advantages and positive effects:
[0012] ① The fracture water pressure is output through the pull rod piston. The piston pull rod provides tension through the directional weight and the axial force is applied, which can ensure the stability of the water pressure during the fracture expansion process;
[0013] ② It adopts pure mechanical loading, which is sensitive and noiseless. It is more energy-saving and environmentally friendly than the electric drive servo pump. It does not need to consider the impact of power failure during long-term testing (such as creep test) and has high stability.
[0014] ③Simple principle, easy operation, good safety and low cost.
[0015] ④ Suitable for stable water pressure loading in indoor rock mechanics hydraulic coupling experiments. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0110] 3. Based on the above structural design, the specific implementation steps of the device provided by the present invention are as follows:
[0111] 1. Water filling: keep the pulley loading system 9 unloaded before water filling. If there are weights 95 hanging on the tray 97, remove the crossbeam 90 and take out the weights 95 from the guide bracket 96. When filling water, first open the water filling valve 6 and the water outlet valve 3, connect the water filling pipe 7 to the water pump, discharge the air in the pull rod type piston 4 and the water outlet pipe 2, close the water outlet valve 3, push the piston pull rod 8 back to the top of the pull rod type piston 4 by the water pressure of the water pump, close the water filling valve 6, and turn off the water pump.
[0112] 2. Loading: Start the brake 94 to clamp the second steel wire rope 922, remove the crossbeam 90, and hang the weight 95 corresponding to the set water pressure value on the tray 97 through the guide bracket 96. The conversion formula between the set water pressure value p and the weight mass m is as follows:
[0113] p=2mg / (s1-s2) (1)
[0114] In the formula, g is the acceleration due to gravity, s1 is the cross-sectional area of the piston chamber 43, and s2 is the cross-sectional area of the piston rod 8. The multiplication factor 2 is because the movable pulley 93 amplifies the pulling force of the first steel wire rope 921 to twice the weight of the weight 95. In this embodiment, s1-s2=1cm 2 , take the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8m / s 2 When the pull rod type piston 4 outputs a water pressure of 20 MPa, the corresponding mass of the weight 95 is 102.041 kg.
[0115] Close the brake 94 and observe the value of the water pressure gauge 5. Since there is inevitably a certain amount of resistance in the load transfer process, the actual water pressure value will be smaller than the theoretical calculated value. It is necessary to add additional weights to make the water pressure gauge 5 reach the set water pressure value. If the water pressure gauge 5 reading cannot be stable, it means that the connection between the pull rod piston 4 and the piston pull rod 8 is not sealed well and needs to be repaired. When the water pressure gauge 5 reading reaches the set water pressure value and remains stable, open the water outlet valve 3 to complete the stable water pressure loading.
[0116] 3. Start the test: Turn on the rock mechanics testing machine and conduct uniaxial, biaxial, triaxial and creep tests on test model 1.
[0117] 4. Unloading: turn off the rock mechanics testing machine, remove the water pump, disassemble the crossbeam 90, take out the weight 95 from the guide bracket 96, and install the crossbeam 90; open the water injection valve 6, drain the water inside the pull rod piston 4, and end this test.
[0118] The present invention uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The above examples are only used to help understand the core idea of the present invention. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
