Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application provides an indoor fine granular soil material centrifugal screening processing device and method, and belongs to the technical field of material screening. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the design and filling process of earth-rock dams, wide-graded coarse-grained soil is often used as construction material for dam shells. Reliable determination of the mechanical property parameters of such soil material is a prerequisite for the technical feasibility of the design scheme of earth-rock dams. However, in the laboratory test equipment of limited size, it is impossible to carry out the property test of the original graded dam material. Therefore, the content of each particle group of the original graded dam material needs to be reasonably determined through particle analysis test, and then the content of each particle group of the test material after scaling is determined according to the scaling method and scaling ratio. Taking the similar grading method (scaling ratio 10:1) as an example, the deficiencies in the traditional screening method are illustrated.

[0003] (1) When carrying out indoor large-scale triaxial test (300 mm) on rockfill material with a maximum particle size of 500 mm, the maximum particle size of the indoor scaled material is 50 mm. When preparing the material indoors, the soil material below 50 mm needs to be screened from the original graded material. However, there is no 50 mm sieve in the indoor common screening device. Therefore, a custom-made sieve is needed to determine the corresponding particle group content.

[0004] (2) For the scaled material grading particle groups of the original graded material particle groups 60 mm-20 mm (coarse gravel), 20 mm-5 mm (medium gravel), and 2 mm-5 mm (fine gravel), the scaled material grading particle groups need to be accurately determined to 6 mm-2 mm, 2.0 mm-0.5 mm, and 0.2 mm-0.5 mm, respectively. According to the traditional test method, the soil material above 2 mm and the soil material below 2 mm need to be screened in different ways, and the screening efficiency is low. Moreover, it is difficult to accurately determine the scaled material particle groups with such small sizes (0.2 mm (there is no common sieve with a size of 0.2 mm)-0.5 mm) in the traditional screening test.

[0005] (3) In order to overcome the problem of the lack of sieves, the original graded interpolation method is often used to determine the particle group content of the scaled material. For example, there are 0.25 mm sieves and 0.5 mm sieves in the laboratory, and the particle group content of 0.25 mm-0.5 mm can be determined indoors. Therefore, the content of 2.5 mm-5 mm in the original grading needs to be determined. The particle group content of 2 mm-5 mm can be directly determined for the original grading, and the content of 2.5 mm-5 mm needs to be determined by linear interpolation or other methods. This method brings obvious errors.

[0006] The particle analysis test generally adopts sieve analysis method, density level method and pipette method. The sieve analysis method is generally used to obtain the soil with the particle size of 0.075 mm to 60 mm; the density meter method or the pipette method is generally used to obtain the soil with the particle size less than 0.075 mm. When the soil has coarse and fine particles, the sieve analysis method and the density meter method or the sieve analysis method and the pipette method should be combined, and the sieve analysis method is the closest method to the present application.

[0007] The sieve analysis method first needs to purchase or prefabricate a group of sieves with different fixed aperture sizes. Then, the soil material is preliminarily separated through a 2 mm sieve, and the soil material greater than 2 mm (coarse sieve separation) and the soil material less than 2 mm (fine sieve separation) are separated. Secondly, the sieves are stacked together in the order of decreasing aperture size.

[0008] For the soil material greater than 2 mm, the sieves are shaken in the order of decreasing aperture size; for the soil material less than 2 mm, the soil material is poured into the uppermost layer of the fine sieve, and the soil material is shaken for 10 to 15 minutes based on the above steps to complete the sieve separation of the soil material with the particle size of 0.075 mm to 60 mm.

[0009] In the process of determining the content of each particle group of the conventional reduced-scale material, there are mainly two problems:

[0010] (1) Since the standard sieve cannot adjust the aperture size, there is a certain error in determining the content of each particle group of the reduced-scale material, and the cost of the single sieve of the designed sieve is too high, and the sieve cannot be adjusted in time according to the actual demand. The content of each particle group of the conventional reduced-scale material needs to be determined by interpolation. When the indoor large-scale triaxial test is carried out with the scale ratio of 10:1, the particle group content of the reduced-scale material needs to be determined. For example, the particle group of the target reduced-scale material is 5 mm to 20 mm, the particle group content of the original particle group of 50 mm to 200 mm needs to be determined by reverse calculation according to the scale ratio. In the actual operation process, the particle group content of 50 mm to 60 mm in the particle group of 20 mm to 60 mm of the original particle group is determined by interpolation in the corresponding particle group curve, and the particle group content of 50 mm to 200 mm of the original particle group is determined by combining the particle group content of 60 mm to 200 mm of the original particle group, and finally the particle group content of 5 mm to 20 mm of the target reduced-scale material is determined by the scale ratio, and there is a certain error in the process.

[0011] (2) The particle group of the reduced-scale material is too small to be conveniently and quickly obtained by sieve separation. For example, when the indoor large-scale triaxial test is carried out with the scale ratio of 10:1, the control particle group of the coarse-grained soil on site is 2 mm to 5 mm, and the particle group of the reduced-scale material needs to be accurately to 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm in theory. The particle group cannot be quickly and massively obtained by the sieve separation method. SUMMARY

[0012] The present application utilizes the principle of centrifugal force to separate the soil material particle groups through the sieve barrel, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of determining the content of each particle group of the reduced scale material, and solving the problems of errors in determining the content of each particle group of the reduced scale material and the difficulty in screening due to too small particle size. The main advantages are:

[0013] (1) Directly overcome the difficulty and economic waste of customizing a sieve for some irregular particle groups. The sieve barrel is a circular cone sleeve, and the change in its radius is designed according to the particle diameter and specific gravity based on the principle of centrifugal force. Different particle groups can be effectively screened.

[0014] (2) The centrifugal screening test device does not need to separate the coarse and fine sieve groups and then adopt different methods for screening. It can directly screen the mixed material as a whole, directly improving the screening efficiency. The design of the circular cone sleeve allows the device to meet the discharge requirements during stable rotation.

The sieve inner barrel is further provided with a horizontal grid at the hollow. The outer side of the sieve outer barrel is provided with multiple material collecting partitions, and each material collecting partition is provided with a discharge port switch at the connection with the material collecting box shell.

[0018] The speed regulation motor is used to complete the rotation energy input work. The speed regulation motor comprises a rotation speed controller, a motor, and an inner and outer cylinder asynchronous control valve. The rotation speed controller enables the sieve outer barrel and the sieve inner barrel to rotate at a constant angular velocity ω. The motor provides rotation kinetic energy, and the inner and outer cylinder asynchronous control valve enables the sieve outer barrel and the sieve inner barrel to be different, allowing the soil and rock material to pass through the horizontal grid and enter the material collecting partitions during operation.

[0043] The indoor fine-grained soil centrifugal screening treatment method:

[0044] S1, equipment presetting and debugging. According to the specific gravity of soil particles, the motor 8 rotating speed ω is set through the rotating speed controller 9, the feed inlet valve 10 is closed, the vacuum pump 13 is started, the space inside the aggregate tank shell 1 is vacuumized, and airtight test is carried out for one hour to test the airtightness of the equipment.

[0051] The design core and principle diagram are shown in Figure 6 :

[0052] F c = m g ω 2 r(h) (1)

[0053] G = m g g (2)

[0054] f f = μF N (3)

[0055] F N = G cos θ + Fc sinθ (4)

[0056] r(h) = r0 + h cotθ (5)

[0057] F c - centrifugal force, N; ω - test device rotation speed;

[0058] G - gravity, N; r(h) - inner layer barrel radius of the sieve material, which is the height h of the cylinder and the radius of the inner barrel bottom

When the test starts, all particles are accumulated at the bottom of the inner layer barrel of the sieve material, and with the operation of the speed regulation motor, the soil particles are rolled to the side wall under the action of the centrifugal force. When entering the stable rotation, the soil particles enter the force balance state under the action of the centrifugal force, the self-weight load and the friction, and the particles are stably rotated at a certain radius r(h).
