Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of geotechnical engineering tests and relates to an in-hole in-situ loess collapsibility coefficient testing device and method based on a cutting load method. Background Art

[0002] Collapsible loess, when exposed to water under a certain pressure, will deform significantly and rapidly lose strength. According to my country's "Building Standard for Collapsible Loess Regions" (GB50025-2018), collapsible loess testing primarily includes indoor single- and double-line methods and on-site pit immersion methods. Field testing, which avoids the disturbance of specimens encountered in indoor testing, is widely adopted in engineering practice. In some areas of my country, the depth of self-weight collapsible loess can reach 50-60 meters. For deeply buried collapsible loess, the results of the on-site pit immersion method often deviate significantly from actual conditions due to site limitations, long testing cycles, and high water consumption. To meet the needs of engineering construction, how to quickly and accurately evaluate the collapsible properties of loess at different burial depths has become a crucial issue for ensuring the stability of urban building foundations in loess areas and the safe operation and maintenance of power transmission lines.

[0003] While some studies have proposed testing devices and methods for the collapsibility coefficient of loess in a hole, they lack accuracy and efficiency. For example, the invention patent "Direct Measurement Device for Collapsibility Coefficient in a Hole and Method for Measuring Collapsibility Coefficient of Loess (CN109238866B)" uses a single-line method, but only applies one pressure in a set of in-hole tests, which is inconsistent with the single-line method's requirement for three or more static pressure load tests. Another example is the invention patent "Device and Method for Testing Collapsibility Coefficient of Loess in a Hole (CN117647443B)" that loads an annular soil mass within a hole. However, both the jacking end and the anchoring end of the annular soil mass are deformed by the force. If the jacking distance is not accurately determined, the accuracy of the collapsibility coefficient test will be seriously affected. Clearly, there is still a lack of effective means and methods for determining the collapsibility coefficient of deep loess. Summary of the Invention

[0024] The in-situ in-hole loess collapsibility coefficient testing device based on the cutting load method described in this embodiment mainly includes two parts: an in-hole cutting device and a collapsibility coefficient testing device. Each part has a compact structure and coordinated functions, and can obtain loess collapsibility coefficient data efficiently and accurately under in-situ conditions.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, Ⅰ is the rotating part controlled by the in-hole cutting device; Ⅱ is the knife extending part controlled by the in-hole cutting device.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the in-hole cutting device is primarily used to in-situ cut two soil sample annular grooves at a predetermined depth in the hole wall for subsequent collapsibility loading tests. The in-hole cutting device includes a lifting ring 1, a cross plate 2, a first cylinder 3, a support rod 4, a conductive ring 5, a motor 6, a cutter head 7, and a gear 8.

[0027] Before operation, first lower the entire device through the lifting ring 1 to the drill hole of the predetermined depth through the rope. The lifting ring 1 is connected and fixed to the cross plate 2 through appropriate bolts. The cross plate 2 is further connected to the four support rods 4. Figure 8 As shown, the support rod 4 is L-shaped, with the short side horizontally slidingly connected to the top and bottom of the first cylinder 3, and the long side is located on the side of the first cylinder 3. Blowing ports are provided on the four sides of the first cylinder 3, and the blowing ports are set toward the long side of the support rod 4. The support rod 4 is driven by the blowing of the first cylinder 3 to expand outward, and after expansion, it supports the hole wall, thereby stably anchoring the entire in-hole cutting device to the hole wall. An air inlet 31 and an air outlet 32 ​​are provided on the first cylinder 3 for supplying air to the first cylinder 3.

[0028] The motor 6 includes a first motor 61 and a second motor 62, which are responsible for controlling the rotation of the conductive ring 5 and the extension and retraction of the cutter head 7, respectively. The first motor 61 is located below the first cylinder 3. The output shaft of the first motor 61 is vertically connected to the conductive ring 5 downward. The top of the conductive ring 5 is connected to the first motor 61 through a disc. The cross plate 2 and the disc are connected by two connecting rods. The bottom of the conductive ring 5 is connected to the second motor 62, driving the lower cutting mechanism to rotate. The cutter head 7 is controlled by the second motor 62 to extend and retract, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the output shaft of the second motor 62 is vertically connected to the gear 8 downward, and the gear 8 is horizontally meshed with two racks. A cutter head 7 is set at the end of the rack. The gear 8 and the rack are driven to ensure a stable feed rate during the cutting process. The gear 8 and the rack are set in the bottom support shell.

[0029] After the in-hole cutting device is activated, the cutter head 7 gradually extends and begins to rotate, cutting along the hole wall. After the first soil sample groove is cut, the in-hole cutting device is lowered to the second testing position, and the above operation is repeated to cut the second soil sample groove. The entire process can be completed at any depth within the hole, maximally restoring the original state of the soil.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the collapsibility coefficient testing device is used to in-situ test the collapsibility of loess in two soil sample troughs formed by cutting. It mainly includes a support plate 9, a pressure plate 10, a fourth cylinder 36, a bidirectional electric push rod 11, a water spray hole 12, a connecting rod 13, and a side limit ring 14.

[0031] like Figure 2Among them, III is the collapsibility coefficient test device under natural conditions, IV is the anchoring part of the collapsibility coefficient test device, and V is the collapsibility coefficient test device under saturated conditions.

[0032] The support plate 9 is the main structure of the wetting coefficient testing device. The two arc-shaped support plates 9 are vertically arranged in a circular ring in the middle position of the wetting coefficient testing device. The fourth cylinder 36 and the bidirectional electric push rod 11 are located in the center of the support plate 9. A connecting rod is arranged on both sides of the fourth cylinder 36 to connect with the support plate 9.

[0033] The upper and lower output shafts of the bidirectional electric push rod 11 are connected to a flange. Figure 7 As shown, the bidirectional electric push rod 11 is the power core and adopts a retractable structure to drive the two loading units of the upper natural condition sample and the lower submerged sample respectively.

[0034] The upper loading unit and the lower loading unit have the same structure, both of which are provided with a pressure plate 10 and a side limit ring 14. The pressure plate 10 is set on the disc, and the flange and the disc are connected by a connecting rod. The connection between the connecting rod and the disc is provided with a radial guide rail and a radial inclined guide rail.

[0035] The pressure plate 10 is composed of a plurality of large expansion plates 101 and a plurality of small expansion plates 102 staggered together. The large expansion plates 101 are slidably connected to the radial guide rail, and the small expansion plates 102 are slidably connected to the radial inclined guide rail. After the plurality of large expansion plates 101 and the plurality of small expansion plates 102 are retracted, the small expansion plates 102 are located above the large expansion plates 101. A small diameter circle is formed between the plurality of large expansion plates 101, and a small diameter circle is formed between the small expansion plates 102. After the plurality of large expansion plates 101 and the plurality of small expansion plates 102 are expanded, they are staggered to form a disc structure.

[0036] A second cylinder 34 and a third cylinder 35 are provided between the pressure plate and the flange. The large expansion plate 101 and the small expansion plate 102 are controlled by the second cylinder 34 and the third cylinder 35 driving the connecting rod mechanism up and down respectively. When the output shafts of the second cylinder 34 and the third cylinder 35 are extended, the connecting rod mechanism drives the large expansion plate 101 to extend along the radial guide rail, and a gap is generated between adjacent large expansion plates 101. The connecting rod mechanism drives the small expansion plate 102 to extend along the radial inclined guide rail, and the small expansion plate 102 extends between the adjacent large expansion plates 101, and the large expansion plate 101 and the small expansion plate 102 form a large diameter circle.

[0037] After the collapsibility coefficient testing device is placed in the hole, the large expansion plate 101 and the small expansion plate 102 are expanded and extended into the upper and lower soil sample grooves to be tested. The pressure plate 10 located in the upper soil sample groove to be tested is pressed against the top of the upper soil sample groove to be tested, and the top of the upper soil sample groove to be tested is the upper sample. The pressure plate 10 located in the lower soil sample groove to be tested is pressed against the bottom of the lower soil sample groove to be tested, and the bottom of the lower soil sample groove to be tested is the lower sample.

[0038] The side limit rings 14 are arranged at the top of the upper loading unit and the bottom of the lower loading unit. The side limit rings 14 are located outside the two soil sample grooves to prevent the soil samples from becoming unstable due to lateral deformation during the loading process.

[0039] The water spray holes 12 are radially arranged on the large expansion plate 101 and are used to uniformly inject water into the lower soil sample, thereby achieving annular water seepage, saturating the soil sample and effectively accelerating the saturation speed of the sample.

[0040] After the collapsibility tester is lowered to the test position, the fourth cylinder 36 deploys the support plate 9, which is then anchored to the hole wall. Subsequently, the second cylinders 34 and 35 sequentially deploy the large and small deployment plates 101 and 102, forming a complete enclosure and loading surface for the specimen.

[0041] Displacement sensors are provided on the top of the upper loading unit and the bottom of the lower loading unit.

[0042] The in-hole in-situ loess collapsibility coefficient testing device based on the cutting load method includes the following steps when performing the in-hole in-situ loess collapsibility coefficient test: Step 1: clean the test site and select the drilling location, and use the drill rod to drill to the predetermined depth to obtain the borehole; Step 2: The in-hole cutting device is hoisted to the test position by a rope, and the first cylinder 3 is inflated to expand the support rod 4 to provide anchoring force to fix the in-hole cutting device in the hole.

[0043] Step 3: After fixing the in-hole cutting device, start the first motor 61 and the second motor 62, extend the knife to cut the soil sample groove to be tested while rotating the conductive ring 5 to form the soil sample groove to be tested, repeat the operation at a suitable position below the first soil sample groove to be tested to obtain the second soil sample groove to be tested.

[0044] Step 4: After the two soil sample grooves to be tested are cut, the cutting device in the hole is retracted.

[0045] Step 5: Use a rope to place the collapsible coefficient test device to the position of the soil sample groove to be tested. Use the fourth cylinder 36 to unfold the support plate 9 to provide sufficient anchoring force to fix the collapsible coefficient test device in the test position.

[0046] Step 6: Use the second cylinder 34 and the third cylinder 35 to unfold the large unfolding plate 101 and the small unfolding plate 102 at the top of the upper loading unit and the bottom of the lower loading unit.

[0047] Step 7: Continue to inject water at a constant flow rate to the bottom of the lower loading unit through the water spray hole 12 to soak the lower sample and observe the water level. When the water in the borehole cannot penetrate into it, the test soil layer is considered to be saturated.

[0048] Step 8: Apply a certain pressure with the bidirectional electric push rod until the vertical displacement of the sample at the pressure plate 10 changes by less than 0.10 mm in two consecutive hours. The deformation is considered stable and the vertical displacement is recorded as s. z and s z ',like Figure 9 As shown, the vertical displacement is measured by displacement sensors at the top of the upper loading unit and the bottom of the lower loading unit.

[0049] Step 9: Continue to control the bidirectional electric push rod and apply the next level of pressure until the vertical displacement of the specimen at the upper and lower expansion plate positions changes by less than 0.10 mm in two consecutive hours. The deformation is considered stable and the vertical displacement is recorded as s. z1 and s z1 ',like Figure 9 shown.

[0050] Step 10: Calculate the vertical loess collapsibility coefficient under each level of pressure:

[0051] Where: is the vertical loess collapsibility coefficient, It is the height of the sample after the saturated deformation is stable under a certain pressure level. It is the height of the sample after its natural deformation stabilizes under a certain level of pressure.
