Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rock sample processing technology, specifically to an apparatus and method for preparing samples similar to bedding and lamellar rock masses. Background Technology

[0002] Anisotropy is a typical mechanical characteristic of layered rock masses (such as shale and slate) and one of the main research directions in the field of rock mechanical properties in engineering. Unlike general rock masses, layered rock masses exhibit significant anisotropic deformation and strength characteristics, and their failure mechanisms are more complex. Engineering accidents caused by the instability of layered rock masses occur frequently, resulting in certain economic losses. Therefore, research on the mechanical properties of layered rock masses has important practical significance. To study the anisotropic mechanical characteristics of layered rock masses, it is necessary to drill rock samples with different bedding angles and conduct a series of physical, mechanical, and permeability tests to provide theoretical support for rock mass engineering design and construction. Therefore, it is crucial to prepare standard samples of layered rock masses with different bedding angles in the laboratory.

[0003] The naturally layered rock masses collected on-site are of varying sizes and exhibit significant dispersion, which cannot adequately meet the requirements of laboratory testing. The testing process necessitates the preparation of a large number of standard specimens. Currently, the molds used for preparing and drilling layered rock mass specimens are relatively limited, resulting in low drilling efficiency and angle accuracy, poor stability and continuity during drilling, and cumbersome and labor-intensive procedures. Therefore, existing layered rock mass sampling equipment cannot meet practical requirements. Based on this situation, a more reasonable solution is needed for the preparation of standard specimens for similar rock mass materials. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of the prior art, one objective of this invention is to provide a device for preparing similar samples of bedding and lamellar rock masses, thereby solving the problems of low drilling efficiency and drilling angle accuracy, poor stability and continuity during drilling, and cumbersome operation procedures and high labor intensity.

Each support frame is equipped with a vertical plate, and the lower end of each vertical plate is adjustablely and fixedly connected to the top and left and right sides of the support frame it belongs to. An angle plate is fixedly embedded on the front side wall of the rear vertical plate.

[0007] An angle adjustment frame is arranged longitudinally between the two upright plates. The front and rear ends of the angle adjustment frame are rotatably connected to the upper ends of the two upright plates, respectively. A locking block is provided on the rear upright plate to fix the angle adjustment frame to the upright plate.

The servo motor drives the drill bit to rotate and move along its axial direction through the threaded drill rod.

[0010] The calibration device includes two calibration frames that can be detachably installed on the front and rear sides of the test chamber. The calibration frames are also N-shaped structures. Two calibration plates are provided between the two calibration frames. The front and rear ends of the calibration plates are slidably engaged with the top and left and right sides of the two calibration frames through square sliders. In addition, the two ends of the calibration plates are rotatably connected to the square sliders respectively, and the angle of the calibration plates can be fixedly connected to the square sliders.

[0011] Furthermore, the test chamber includes a base plate, a front side plate, a rear side plate, a left side plate, and a right side plate. The front and rear side plates are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the base plate, and their lower ends are fixedly connected to the base plate. Both the front and rear side plates are made of transparent material, and the front side plate has a scale.

[0012] The left and right side panels are vertically positioned between the front and rear side panels, and the front and rear ends of the left and right side panels are respectively inserted and fixedly connected to the front and rear side panels.

[0013] The front side wall of the rear side panel has two dovetail grooves arranged on the left and right, and the rear side wall of the front side panel has two identical dovetail grooves that correspond one-to-one with the position of the rear side panel.

[0014] Both the front and rear ends of the left and right side plates are equipped with elongated dovetail sliders that are integrated with them. Each dovetail slider is located in the corresponding dovetail groove and slides in fit. The left and right ends of the front and rear side plates extend out of the outer wall of the left or right side plate.

[0015] Furthermore, the cross-section of the ground rail is square, and two ground rails are fixedly installed on the base with longitudinal spacing. The surface of the ground rail has multiple rollers arranged at intervals along its length.

[0016] A positioning plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the test chamber. The left and right sides of the positioning plate are respectively slidably engaged with the two ground rails. A horizontal ruler is arranged horizontally on the front side of the positioning plate, and a horizontal ruler is arranged vertically on the right side wall of the bottom plate.

[0017] Furthermore, the support frame includes a first column and a first crossbeam. There are two first columns, which are arranged vertically opposite each other. The first crossbeam is arranged horizontally between the two first columns, and its left and right ends are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two first columns by a guide plate to form a whole.

[0018] Each of the two support frames has a first slide rail extending along its length on one side. A rectangular strip slider is provided on the inner side of the first slide rail. The strip slider is slidably engaged with the first column and the first crossbeam respectively. Each strip slider is fixedly connected to the lower end of the upright plate on the same side.

[0019] Both the first column and the first crossbeam are provided with a set of through holes. Each set of through holes includes multiple through holes arranged at equal intervals along the length of the first column or the first crossbeam. Bolt holes are provided on the opposite sides of the two strip sliders, and locking bolts are installed in the bolt holes.

[0020] Furthermore, both the first column and the first crossbeam are made of C-shaped steel, and the guide plate is a 3 / 4 disc with a circular cavity on the inner side. The groove on the inner side of the first crossbeam communicates with the groove on the inner side of the first column through the circular cavity to form the first slide.

[0021] The inner side of the guide plate has a T-shaped guide post arranged coaxially with it. One end of the T-shaped guide post is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide plate. In addition, the two strip sliders are provided with guide grooves that cooperate with the T-shaped guide post on opposite sides. The guide grooves extend to both ends of the linear movement direction of the strip sliders.

[0022] The bolt hole is located inside the guide groove. When the strip slider moves to the end of the first crossbeam and continues to move, the T-shaped guide post enters the guide groove. After the end of the strip slider contacts the inner wall of the guide plate, it rotates 90° around the T-shaped guide post and maintains this state to move downward into the inner side of the first column, completing the turning.

[0023] Furthermore, the angle adjustment frame includes guide rods and connecting plates. There are two guide rods arranged longitudinally in parallel intervals, and the same ends of the two guide rods are fixedly connected to each other by the connecting plates to form a whole.

[0024] Two connecting plates are provided with a fixed shaft on opposite sides, which is arranged parallel to the guide rod. The two fixed shafts are arranged coaxially. One end of the fixed shaft is connected to the middle of the connecting plate to form a whole, and the other end passes through the vertical plate on the same side and rotates with the vertical plate.

[0025] Angle plate one is a 360° disc, and the fixed shaft one on the rear side passes through the center of angle plate one. A pointer one that cooperates with angle plate one is fixed on its outer circumference. The locking block can lock the rear end of the fixed shaft one on the rear side, so that it is fixedly connected to the vertical plate on the rear side.

[0026] Furthermore, two guide rods are inserted inside the motor mounting bracket, and the motor mounting bracket and the guide rods slide longitudinally together. A positioning bolt is provided on one side of the motor mounting bracket, and the positioning bolt locks the motor mounting bracket onto the guide rod.

[0027] The threaded drill rod has a keyway along its axial direction on its circumferential side wall. A flat key that matches the keyway is fixed on the inner side wall of the hollow shaft. The threaded nut is fixed to the lower part of the motor mounting bracket. The lower end of the threaded drill rod passes through the threaded nut and engages with it threadedly. The drill bit is a cylindrical shape with a closed top and a toothed structure on its lower end face.

[0028] When the servo motor drives the threaded drill rod to rotate, the threaded drill rod rises and falls vertically relative to the motor mounting bracket.

[0029] Furthermore, the calibration frame is provided with a second slide rail with the same shape. The main body of the square slider is a cube, and its upper, lower and left and right sides have limiting parts that cooperate with the side walls of the calibration frame. The square slider is located inside the second slide rail and slides horizontally with the top of the calibration frame, and can also slide vertically with the left and right sides of the calibration frame.

[0030] The front and rear ends of the calibration plate are respectively equipped with two fixed shafts. One end of the fixed shaft is fixedly connected to the middle of the end face of the calibration plate, and the other end passes through the corresponding square slider and is equipped with a locking nut.

[0031] Angle disk two is fixedly embedded in the front side wall of the rear square slider. The axis of fixed shaft two coincides with the center of angle disk two. A pointer two that cooperates with angle disk two is fixed on the outer circumference of fixed shaft two.

[0032] Furthermore, the correction frame is an integral structure consisting of a second crossbeam and two second columns, and each of the two second columns has a vertical groove on an adjacent side that matches the end of the front or rear side plate.

[0033] The inner sides of the second crossbeam and the second column each have a straight through groove along their length. The cross-section of the straight through groove matches the square slider. The straight through groove in the second crossbeam is connected to the straight through groove in the two second columns to form the second slide.

[0034] Another objective of this invention is to provide a method for preparing specimens similar to bedding and lamellar rock masses.

[0035] A method for preparing similar specimens of bedding and lamellar rock masses, using the aforementioned apparatus for preparing similar specimens of bedding and lamellar rock masses, includes the following steps:

[0036] Step 1: Based on the relevant parameters and similarity ratios of the lamellae and bedding in the real layered rock mass, determine the proportions and thicknesses of the similar materials for the lamellae and bedding, and prepare the lamellae similar materials and bedding similar materials.

[0037] Adjust the adjustable feet at the bottom of the test chamber to make the bottom plate surface of the test chamber level. Then, alternately lay the layered similar material and the layered similar material of the predetermined thickness from bottom to top inside the test chamber. After laying each layer of layered similar material or layered similar material, it is necessary to smooth and compact it until the rock mass model is laid. After curing, the rock mass model reaches the predetermined strength.

[0038] Step 2: Remove the left and right side panels of the test chamber. Then, install the two calibration frames onto the front and rear side panels of the test chamber, respectively, with the bottom of the crossbeam of the calibration frame close to the top of the front or rear side panel.

[0039] Adjust the adjustable feet at the bottom of the test chamber to lift it off the ground, and then lower the test chamber onto the ground track.

[0040] Move the test chamber and the rock mass model inside it along the ground rail between the two support frames, and readjust the adjustable feet at the bottom of the test chamber so that the bottom of the test chamber is off the ground rail and in a horizontal position. At this time, the calibration plate and drilling device are both above the test chamber.

[0041] Step 3: Adjust the angles of both calibration plates to the set angles, ensuring that the angles of the two calibration plates are consistent. Lock the calibration plates to the square slider. At this point, each calibration plate can slide on the calibration frame.

[0042] Step 4: After rotating the angle adjustment frame to the set angle, lock the angle adjustment frame to the vertical plate. Then, start the servo motor. The servo motor drives the drill bit to move downwards to the upper surface of the rock mass model and stops moving. At this time, the two correction plates are on both sides of the drill bit.

[0043] Move the two calibration plates toward the drill bit until their surfaces come into contact with the circumferential sidewall of the drill bit. Observe whether the surfaces of the calibration plates are in contact with the circumferential sidewall of the drill bit.

[0044] If the calibration plate is in complete contact with the circumferential sidewall of the drill bit, the drilling angle of the drill bit is correct; if the calibration plate is not in complete contact with the circumferential sidewall of the drill bit, the angle adjustment frame needs to be adjusted again until they are in complete contact, and then the angle adjustment frame and the upright plate are locked again.

[0045] Step 5: Move the two calibration plates to the sides of the drill bit respectively, and lock and fix the motor mounting bracket and angle adjustment bracket.

[0046] The servo motor restarts, the drill bit rotates forward to contact the rock mass model and drills down to extract the rock mass sample. After reaching the set drilling depth, the drill bit reverses to remove the rock mass sample. Then, the position and / or angle of the drill bit are adjusted to repeat the sampling process on the top of the rock mass model multiple times.

[0047] Step 6: After sampling is completed at the top of the rock mass model, adjust the angle adjustment frame, drilling device and two correction plates to the side of the rock mass model, and repeat steps 3 to 5. The drilling device completes the sampling on the side of the rock mass model.

[0048] The drilled rock samples are cut and ground into standard samples according to requirements for later use.

[0049] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial technical effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0050] 1. High drilling efficiency of this invention: By employing a large-size horizontal model and combining it with a drilling device whose position and angle can be flexibly adjusted, multi-directional sampling can be achieved on the left, top, and right sides of the layered rock mass model, significantly improving sampling efficiency. The drill bit can achieve continuous sampling by adjusting its position between two calibration plates, ensuring not only the continuity and stability of the sampling process but also accelerating the sampling speed, reducing the time interval between sampling operations, and maximizing the utilization of the laid similar model material.

[0051] 2. Precision of drilling angle in this invention: The drilling device can flexibly adjust the drilling angle, and the precise cooperation between the drilling device and the calibration plate ensures the accuracy and consistency of the sample drilling angle.

[0052] 3. Flexibility of model laying and parameter adjustment in this invention: Based on the relevant parameters (physical, mechanical and permeability) and main similarity ratios of the strata and bedding in the layered rock mass, the similar material ratios of the strata and bedding are obtained through mix proportioning tests and used as the basis for model laying. The laying thickness of the strata and bedding can be flexibly adjusted according to the specific needs of the experiment.

[0053] 4. Ease of operation of the present invention: The entire sampling process only requires the laying of a large-size horizontal model once, and rock samples with the required bedding angle, shape and size can be flexibly drilled according to experimental needs. This overcomes the drawbacks of the traditional sample drilling process, which requires frequent moving or adjustment of the model angle, greatly simplifies the operation process and reduces the difficulty and labor intensity of operation.

The right side wall of the bottom plate 21 has a vertically arranged level ruler 29, which is used to detect the horizontality of the test chamber 2 in the front and back directions. When the bubbles in the level ruler 28 and the level ruler 29 are both in the middle position, it indicates that the test chamber 2 is in a horizontal state.

[0074] The calibration device includes two calibration frames 5 that are detachably installed on the front and rear sides of the test chamber 2. The calibration frames 5 are also N-shaped structures. The calibration frame 5 is an integral structure composed of a second crossbeam 51 and two second columns 52. Each of the two second columns 52 has a vertical groove 521 on an adjacent side that matches the left and right ends of the front side plate 22 or the rear side plate 23. The calibration frame 5 is installed from the top of the test chamber 2.

One end of the second fixed shaft 55 is fixedly connected to the middle of the end face of the calibration plate 58, and the other end passes through the corresponding square slider 54 and is equipped with a locking nut.

[0079] Angle disk 2 56 is fixedly embedded in the front side wall of the rear square slider 54. The axis of fixed shaft 2 55 coincides with the center of angle disk 2 56. A pointer 2 57 that cooperates with angle disk 2 56 is fixed on the outer circumference of fixed shaft 2 55.

[0080] There are two support frames 3, which are symmetrically arranged above the two ground rails 11.

[0093] Example 2, combined with Figures 1 to 14 A method for preparing similar specimens of bedding and lamellar rock masses, using the aforementioned apparatus for preparing similar specimens of bedding and lamellar rock masses, includes the following steps:

[0094] Step 1: Based on the relevant parameters and similarity ratios of the lamellae and bedding in the real layered rock mass, determine the proportions and thicknesses of the similar materials for the lamellae and bedding, and prepare the lamellae similar materials and bedding similar materials.

[0095] Adjust the adjustable feet 20 at the bottom of the test chamber 2 to make the bottom plate surface of the test chamber 2 level. Then, alternately lay the layer-like material and the bedding-like material of the predetermined thickness from bottom to top inside the test chamber 2. After laying each layer of layer-like material or bedding-like material, it is necessary to smooth and compact it until the rock mass model 71 is laid. After curing, the rock mass model 71 reaches the predetermined strength. The thickness of the layer 72 and bedding 73 of the rock mass model 71 is determined according to the experimental requirements.

[0096] Step 2: Remove the left side panel 24 and right side panel 25 of the test chamber 2. Then, install the two calibration frames 5 onto the front side panel 22 and the rear side panel 23 of the test chamber 2, respectively. The bottom of the crossbeam of the calibration frame 5 is close to the upper end of the front side panel 22 or the rear side panel 23.

[0097] Adjust the adjustable feet 20 at the bottom of the test chamber 2 to lift them off the ground, and the test chamber 2 will fall onto the ground track 11.

[0098] Move the test chamber 2 and the rock mass model inside it along the ground rail 11 between the two support frames 3, and readjust the adjustable feet 20 at the bottom of the test chamber 2 so that the bottom of the test chamber 2 leaves the ground rail 11 and is in a horizontal state. At this time, the correction plate 58 and the drilling device 4 are both above the test chamber 2.

[0099] Step 3: Adjust the angles of both calibration plates 58 to the set angles, ensuring that the angles of the two calibration plates 58 are consistent. Lock the calibration plates 58 to the square slider 54. At this point, each calibration plate 58 can slide on the calibration frame 5.

[0100] Step 4: After rotating the angle adjustment frame to the set angle, lock the angle adjustment frame to the upright plate 34. Then, start the servo motor 42. The servo motor 42 drives the drill bit 44 to move downwards to the upper surface of the rock mass model 71 through the threaded drill rod 43 and stops moving. At this time, the two correction plates 58 are respectively located on both sides of the drill bit 44.

[0101] Move the two calibration plates 58 toward the drill bit 44 and bring them close together. The surfaces of the two calibration plates 58 contact the circumferential sidewall of the drill bit 44. Observe whether the surfaces of the calibration plates 58 are in contact with the circumferential sidewall of the drill bit 44.

[0102] If the calibration plate 58 is in complete contact with the circumferential sidewall of the drill bit 44, then the drilling angle of the drill bit 44 is correct, and proceed to the next step.

[0103] If the correction plate 58 and the circumferential sidewall of the drill bit 44 are not completely in contact, the angle of the angle adjustment bracket needs to be adjusted again until they are completely in contact. Then, lock the angle adjustment bracket and the upright plate 34 again before proceeding to the next step.

[0104] Step 5: Move the two correction plates 58 to the sides of the drill bit 44 respectively, and lock the motor mounting bracket 41 onto the angle adjustment bracket.

[0105] Servo motor 42 starts again, drill bit 44 rotates forward to contact rock mass model 71 and drills down to extract rock mass sample. After reaching the set drilling depth, drill bit 44 reverses to extract rock mass sample. Then, the position and / or angle of drill bit 44 above rock mass model 71 are adjusted to repeatedly extract sample from the top of rock mass model 71 in the manner described above.

[0106] Step Six: After sampling is completed at the top of the rock mass model 71, adjust the angle adjustment frame, drilling device 4, and two correction plates 58 to the side of the rock mass model 71. Repeat steps three to five until the drilling device completes sampling on the side of the rock mass model 71. Cut and grind the drilled rock mass samples into standard samples 74 as required for subsequent use.

Adjust the adjustable feet at the bottom of the test chamber to make the bottom plate surface of the test chamber level. Then, alternately lay the layered similar material and the layered similar material of the predetermined thickness from bottom to top inside the test chamber. After laying each layer of layered similar material or layered similar material, it is necessary to smooth and compact it until the rock mass model is laid. After curing, the rock mass model reaches the predetermined strength. Step 2: Remove the left and right side panels of the test chamber.
