Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of saturation testing technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for testing the saturation of grouting sleeves based on the falling ball method. Background Technology
[0002] The falling ball method is an experimental method in the field of fluid mechanics for measuring the viscosity coefficient of liquids. It involves observing the final velocity of a small ball falling uniformly in a liquid. A ruler is suspended in a vertically placed, transparent cylindrical cylinder filled with the liquid to be tested to mark the falling position of the ball. An image acquisition system is aimed at the lower part of the transparent cylindrical cylinder and transmits the images of the falling ball and the ruler to a computer. On the computer monitor, the grid method or cross coordinate method is used to compare and calculate each sampling position of the falling ball with the ruler to obtain the final velocity of the ball and thus calculate the viscosity coefficient of the liquid to be tested.
[0003] Except for connection nodes, precast concrete structures are superior to cast-in-place concrete structures in all other aspects. However, the connection nodes of precast concrete structures need to be tested for fullness after pouring to ensure the overall quality of the precast concrete structure. Conventional testing methods, such as endoscopy, are time-consuming and costly, and are only suitable for projects with a large workload.
[0004] When using the falling ball method to measure the fullness inside a connection node, a common problem is that different connection nodes have different dimensions. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the falling ball does not come into contact with the inner wall of the node or the reinforcing steel. In addition, multi-point measurements are required. These are not easy to adjust inside the connection node, which can easily affect the accuracy of the measurement. Summary of the Invention

[0016] A method for detecting the fullness of grouting sleeves based on the falling ball method, the method comprising the following steps:
[0017] (1) Based on the actual situation of the connecting sleeve, select the slurry outlet channel to drill and make the test channel. Seal the outer end of the slurry outlet channel with a rubber plug, and insert the upper half hollow tube and the lower half hollow tube of the test component through the rubber plug into the inside of the connecting sleeve.
[0018] (2) The upper hollow tube is inserted into the inner wall of the connecting sleeve on the side away from the grout outlet. The insertion length of the upper hollow tube is measured, and the distance between the reinforcing bar and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve is calculated based on the outer diameter of the outer end reinforcing bar.
[0019] (3) Pull the lower hollow tube outward so that the limiting frame and the ball drop point move to the space between the reinforcing bar and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve. Calculate the distance and rotate the screw at the outer end of the upper hollow tube to move the center position of the sealing plate to the axis position of the connecting sleeve.
[0020] (4) Release the restriction of the rewinding frame, and the ball falls along the bottom of the limit frame. The hanging rope is unwound to maintain the connection with the ball. When the ball falls at a constant speed, the force value remains stable. When the force value decreases to 40% of the original force value, it can be considered that the ball has fallen to the bottom. At this time, measure the depth of the ball's descent and retrieve the ball.
[0021] (5) Rotate the limiting frame and the ball 360 degrees with the position of the sealing plate, and take multiple measurements at different positions. The maximum value of the depth measured multiple times shall not exceed the design value, and the maximum and minimum values shall not exceed 20% of the average value. Otherwise, it can be considered as not full.
[0022] The technical solution provided in this disclosure may include the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. This invention uses an angular velocity sensor to measure the number of rotations of the take-up shaft and the length of the unwinding rope, thereby determining the height of the ball's fall. The locking bolt on the disc presses against the take-up frame to brake the take-up shaft. Before the detection component is initially inserted, the rope is kept unwinding, and the ball is housed inside the limiting frame. It can be inserted into the connecting sleeve along with the lower and upper hollow tubes. When the positions of the limiting frame and the ball are adjusted, the locking bolt is released from the lock on the take-up shaft. Under the action of gravity, the ball falls from the bottom of the limiting frame, and the rope unwinds synchronously to maintain its connection with the ball.
[0024] 2. In this invention, when the upper hollow tube is inserted into the connecting sleeve, the diameter of the connecting sleeve can be measured. Then, by rotating the screw, the sealing plate moves along the interior of the upper and lower hollow tubes. Because of the connection between the first electric push rod and the limiting frame, the limiting frame also moves synchronously. The distance the screw moves can be determined using a scale. The limiting frame is moved to a position between the reinforcing bar and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve. Depending on the length the screw penetrates, it can be used for connecting sleeves of different diameters. After the limiting frame moves to the designated position, the second electric push rod moves the connecting plate from the moving part... As the ball exits, the limiting frame will also descend synchronously. During this process, the hoisting rope needs to be released slightly to maintain the connection between the ball and the hoisting rope. The small motor drives the second electric push rod and the connecting plate to rotate. The limiting frame and the ball can rotate 360 degrees along the axis of the connecting sleeve, so that the position of the ball's fall can be adjusted for detection at different positions. Because the second electric push rod pushes the limiting frame to descend, it can avoid the lower half of the hollow tube interfering with the rotation of the limiting frame. The sealing plate connected by the screw can seal the upper half of the hollow tube and the lower half of the hollow tube to prevent the slurry from flowing out.
[0025] 3. In this invention, after the upper and lower hollow tubes are inserted into the connecting sleeve together, the lower hollow tube is pulled outward. The lower hollow tube slides along the grooves on both sides of the upper hollow tube through the protrusions on the top of both sides, maintaining the connection between the upper and lower hollow tubes. At the same time, the position of the limiting frame and the ball is initially adjusted to facilitate the subsequent descent and rotation of the limiting frame and change the position of the ball's fall. The suspension rope is fixedly connected to the ball through the threading plate and the limiting frame. When the limiting frame moves, the threading plate slides synchronously along the moving groove to keep the position of the suspension rope at the top of the ball's axis, thereby limiting the position of the ball's descent and avoiding collisions between the ball and the connecting sleeve and the reinforcing bar during descent, which would affect the test results. The depth of the upper and lower hollow tubes can be determined by the rangefinders installed at the outer ends of the upper and lower hollow tubes, thus preparing for subsequent adjustment of the position of the limiting frame and the ball.
[0026] 4. Compared with the prior art, this invention inserts the ball into the connecting sleeve along the rubber plug and grout outlet channel. The diameter of the connecting sleeve is determined by measuring the insertion depth of the upper and lower hollow tubes. Then, the range of the gap between the connecting sleeve and the reinforcing bar is calculated based on the outer diameter of the reinforcing bar. The position of the limiting frame and the ball of the detection component is adjusted. Then, the ball is unwound by the suspension rope and falls along the limiting frame. The grouting fullness is detected by the speed and depth of the ball's descent and fed back to the display device. The position of the ball's fall can be rotated 360 degrees, which is suitable for the insertion of connecting sleeves with different inner diameters. It also avoids collisions between the ball and the reinforcing bar and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve, maintaining the convenience and accuracy of the detection.

[0041] Embodiments of this disclosure are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are used only to explain this disclosure, and should not be construed as limiting this disclosure. Rather, embodiments of this disclosure include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for detecting the fullness of grouting sleeves based on the falling ball method includes the following steps:
[0043] (1) Based on the actual situation of the connecting sleeve, select the slurry outlet channel to drill and make the test channel. Seal the outer end of the slurry outlet channel with a rubber plug, and insert the upper half hollow tube and the lower half hollow tube of the test component through the rubber plug into the inside of the connecting sleeve.
[0044] (2) The upper hollow tube is inserted into the inner wall of the connecting sleeve on the side away from the grout outlet. The insertion length of the upper hollow tube is measured, and the distance between the reinforcing bar and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve is calculated based on the outer diameter of the outer end reinforcing bar.
[0045] (3) Pull the lower hollow tube outward so that the limiting frame and the ball drop point move to the space between the reinforcing bar and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve. Calculate the distance and rotate the screw at the outer end of the upper hollow tube to move the center position of the sealing plate to the axis position of the connecting sleeve.
[0046] (4) Release the restriction of the rewinding frame, and the ball falls along the bottom of the limit frame. The hanging rope is unwound to maintain the connection with the ball. When the ball falls at a constant speed, the force value remains stable. When the force value decreases to 40% of the original force value, it can be considered that the ball has fallen to the bottom. At this time, measure the depth of the ball's descent and retrieve the ball.
[0047] (5) Rotate the limiting frame and the ball 360 degrees with the position of the sealing plate, and take multiple measurements at different positions. The maximum value of the depth measured multiple times shall not exceed the design value, and the maximum and minimum values shall not exceed 20% of the average value. Otherwise, it can be considered as not full.
[0048] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, this disclosure proposes a device for detecting the fullness of grouting sleeves based on the falling ball method, comprising: an outer layer 1, wherein a connecting sleeve 12 is fixed inside the outer layer 1, and steel bars 11 are fixedly inserted at the top and bottom centers of the connecting sleeve 12, with a certain interval between the two steel bars 11 located inside the connecting sleeve 12; a grout outlet channel 13, wherein the outer layer 1 and the connecting sleeve 12 are provided with grout outlet channels 13 at the intervals between the two steel bars 11, and a rubber plug 14 is fixedly inserted on the outside of the grout outlet channel 13; and a detection component 2, wherein the detection component 2 includes an upper hollow tube 21 and a lower hollow tube 22, wherein the upper hollow tube... The upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 are combined into a single hollow circular tube, and the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 are slidably connected. The upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 slide through the rubber stopper 14. One end of the lower hollow tube 22 that enters the connecting sleeve 12 is fitted with a limiting frame 216, which stores a ball 224. A mounting bracket 23 is fixed to the top of the upper hollow tube 21 at the outer end of the rubber stopper 14, and a display device 24 is fixed to the top of the mounting bracket 23. A winding rack 26 is fixed to one side of the mounting bracket 23 at the bottom of the display device 24. 26, and a lifting rope 27 is wound inside the winding shaft of the winding frame 26, the lifting rope 27 passing through the top of the upper hollow tube 21; a screw 29 is threadedly inserted into the center of the upper hollow tube 21 at the outer end of the rubber plug 14, and a sealing plate 228 is rotatably connected to one end of the screw 29 that passes through the connecting sleeve 12, the sealing plate 228 sliding along the inside of the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22. When using the device, the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 are combined and inserted into the connecting sleeve 12 along the rubber plug 14 and the slurry outlet channel 13, and the length of the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 is measured. The diameter of the connecting sleeve 12 is determined by the depth of the test. Then, the range of the gap between the connecting sleeve 12 and the rebar 11 is calculated based on the outer diameter of the rebar 11. The positions of the limiting frame 216 and the ball 224 of the detection component 2 are adjusted. Then, the ball 224 is unwound by the hanging rope 27 and falls along the limiting frame 216. The grouting fullness is detected by the speed and depth of the ball 224's descent and fed back to the display device 24. The position of the ball 224 can be rotated 360 degrees, which is suitable for the insertion of connecting sleeves 12 with different inner diameters. This avoids collisions between the ball 224 and the inner wall of the rebar 11 and the connecting sleeve 12, maintaining the convenience and accuracy of the detection.
[0049] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 10As shown, in some embodiments, the detection component 2 further includes: a moving groove 220, a threading plate 221, a sliding groove 222, and a protruding strip 223. Sliding grooves 222 are provided on both sides of the upper hollow tube 21, and protruding strips 223 are fixed to the top of both sides of the lower hollow tube 22. The protruding strips 223 slide along the inside of the sliding grooves 222. A sliding groove 222 is provided on the top inner wall of the upper hollow tube 21. The sliding groove 222 is slidably connected to the threading plate 221 at the top of the limiting frame 216. The bottom of the threading plate 221 is fixedly connected to the lower hollow tube 22. The suspension rope... 27 passes through the threading plate 221 and is fixedly connected to the ball 224. The limiting frame 216 is located at the bottom of the ball 224 and has a ball drop hole 217. The top of the limiting frame 225 is in contact with the top of the ball 224. The hanging rope 27 slides through the hole at the top of the limiting frame 225. The upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 are fixed with a fixing plate 25 on the outer surface of the rubber stopper 14, and a rangefinder 214 is fixedly installed on the fixing plate 25. The rangefinders 214 of the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 correspond to the top and bottom of the rubber stopper 14, respectively.
[0050] Understandably, after the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 are inserted together into the connecting sleeve 12, the lower hollow tube 22 is pulled outward. The lower hollow tube 22 slides along the sliding grooves 222 on both sides of the upper hollow tube 21 via the protrusions 223 on both sides of the top, maintaining the connection between the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22. At the same time, the positions of the limiting frame 216 and the ball 224 are initially adjusted to facilitate the subsequent descent and rotation of the limiting frame 216 and the changing of the falling position of the ball 224. The suspension rope 27 is connected to the ball 224 through the threading plate 221 and the limiting frame 225. With a fixed connection, when the limiting frame 216 moves, the threading plate 221 slides synchronously along the moving groove 220, keeping the position of the suspension rope 27 at the top of the axis of the ball 224. This limits the descent position of the ball 224 and prevents the ball 224 from colliding with the connecting sleeve 12 and the reinforcing bar 11 during descent, thus affecting the test results. The depth of the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 can be determined by the rangefinder 214 installed at the outer ends of the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22, thus preparing for subsequent adjustment of the position of the limiting frame 216 and the ball 224.
[0051] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, in some embodiments, a second electric push rod 227 is rotatably mounted inside the sealing plate 228 via a bearing, and the extended end of the second electric push rod 227 slides through the moving notch 215 and is fixed to a connecting plate 219; wherein, two first electric push rods 218 are fixed to one end of the connecting plate 219 facing the limiting frame 216, and the extended ends of the first electric push rods 218 are fixedly connected to the limiting frame 216; a small motor 226 is fixed to the top of the sealing plate 228 at the second electric push rod 227, and the output end of the small motor 226 is connected to the second electric push rod. 227 Top fixed connection; wherein, the limiting frame 216 is fixed inside the limiting bracket 225, the limiting bracket 225 and the limiting frame 216 wrap around the four sides of the sphere 224, the end of the screw 29 away from the rubber stopper 14 is rotatably sleeved with a ring 210, and the bottom of the ring 210 is fixed with a scale 211, the scale 211 slides through the rubber stopper 14, the bottom of the lower hollow tube 22 is provided with a movable notch 215, the width of the mounting plate is the same as that of the movable notch 215, and the inner diameter and outer diameter of the limiting frame 216 are the same as those of the lower hollow tube 22.
[0052] Understandably, when the upper hollow tube 21 is inserted into the connecting sleeve 12, the diameter of the connecting sleeve 12 can be measured. Then, the screw 29 is rotated, and the sealing plate 228 moves along the interior of the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22. Because the first electric push rod 218 is connected to the limiting frame 216, the limiting frame 216 also moves synchronously. The distance the screw 29 moves can be determined using a scale 211. The limiting frame 216 is moved to a position between the reinforcing bar 11 and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 12. Depending on the length the screw 29 rotates through, it can be used for connecting sleeves 12 of different diameters. After the limiting frame 216 moves to the designated position, the second electric push rod 227 moves the connecting plate 219 from the moving notch. When 215 exits, the limiting frame 216 will also descend synchronously. During this process, the hoisting rope 27 needs to be released slightly to maintain the connection between the ball 224 and the hoisting rope 27. The small motor 226 drives the second electric push rod 227 and the connecting plate 219 to rotate. The limiting frame 216 and the ball 224 can rotate 360 degrees along the axis of the connecting sleeve 12, so that the falling position of the ball 224 can be adjusted for different position detection. Because the second electric push rod 227 pushes the limiting frame 216 to descend, it can avoid the lower hollow tube 22 interfering with the rotation of the limiting frame 216. The sealing plate 228 connected to the screw 29 can seal the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 to prevent the slurry from flowing out.
[0053] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, an angular velocity sensor 28 is fixedly installed on the outer end of one side of the winding frame 26, and the angular velocity sensor 28 is connected to the winding shaft of the winding frame 26. A disc 212 is rotatably connected to the other side of the winding frame 26, and the disc 212 is fixedly connected to the winding shaft of the winding frame 26. A locking bolt 213 is threaded into the surface of the disc 212, and the locking bolt 213 is in contact with the outer side of the winding frame 26.
[0054] It should be noted that the angular velocity sensor 28 can measure the number of rotations of the take-up shaft and the length of the unwinding of the suspension rope 27, thereby determining the height of the fall of the ball 224. The take-up shaft can be braked by the locking bolt 213 on the disc 212 pressing against the take-up frame 26. Before the detection component 2 is initially inserted, the suspension rope 27 is kept unwinding, and the ball 224 is housed inside the limiting frame 216. It can be inserted into the connecting sleeve 12 along with the lower half-hollow tube 22 and the upper half-hollow tube 21. When the positions of the limiting frame 216 and the ball 224 are adjusted, the locking bolt 213 is released from locking the take-up shaft. Under the action of gravity, the ball 224 falls from the bottom of the limiting frame 216, and the suspension rope 27 unwinds synchronously to maintain the connection with the ball 224.
[0055] Working principle:
[0056] When using the device, the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 are joined together and inserted into the connecting sleeve 12 along the rubber plug 14 and the slurry outlet channel 13. The diameter of the connecting sleeve 12 is determined by measuring the insertion depth of the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22. Then, the spacing between the connecting sleeve 12 and the reinforcing bar 11 is calculated based on the outer diameter of the reinforcing bar 11. After the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 are inserted into the connecting sleeve 12 together, the lower hollow tube 22 is pulled outward. The lower hollow tube 22 slides along the sliding grooves 222 on both sides of the upper hollow tube 21 through the protrusions 223 on both sides of the top, maintaining the connection between the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22. At the same time, the positions of the limiting frame 216 and the ball 224 are initially adjusted to facilitate the subsequent adjustment of the limiting frame 216. 6. The sphere 224 is lowered and rotated to change its position. The suspension rope 27 is fixedly connected to the sphere 224 via the threading plate 221 and the limiting frame 225. When the limiting frame 216 moves, the threading plate 221 slides synchronously along the moving groove 220, keeping the suspension rope 27 inserted at the top of the axis of the sphere 224. This limits the descent position of the sphere 224, preventing it from colliding with the connecting sleeve 12 and the reinforcing bar 11 during descent and affecting the test results. The depth of insertion of the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22 can be determined by the rangefinder 214 installed at the outer ends of the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22, thus preparing for subsequent adjustment of the position of the limiting frame 216 and the sphere 224. The connecting sleeve is inserted into the upper hollow tube 21. When inside the cylinder 12, the diameter of the connecting sleeve 12 can be measured. Then, the screw 29 is rotated, and the sealing plate 228 moves along the upper half of the hollow tube 21 and the lower half of the hollow tube 22. Because the first electric push rod 218 is connected to the limiting frame 216, the limiting frame 216 also moves synchronously. The distance the screw 29 moves can be determined by the scale 211. The position of the limiting frame 216 is moved between the reinforcing bar 11 and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 12. Depending on the length the screw 29 rotates through, it can be used for connecting sleeves 12 of different diameters. After the limiting frame 216 moves to the designated position, the second electric push rod 227 pushes the connecting plate 219 out of the moving notch 215, and the limiting frame 216 will also descend synchronously. During this process, the lifting rope 27 needs to be slightly released. A section is extended to maintain the connection between the sphere 224 and the suspension rope 27. A small motor 226 drives the second electric push rod 227 and the connecting plate 219 to rotate. The limiting frame 216 and the sphere 224 can rotate 360 degrees along the axis of the connecting sleeve 12, allowing the sphere 224 to fall at an adjustable position for detection at different locations. Because the second electric push rod 227 pushes the limiting frame 216 downwards, it prevents the lower hollow tube 22 from interfering with the rotation of the limiting frame 216. The sealing plate 228 connected to the screw 29 seals the upper hollow tube 21 and the lower hollow tube 22, preventing slurry leakage. The angular velocity sensor 28 measures the number of rotations of the winding shaft and the unwinding length of the suspension rope 27, thus determining the falling height of the sphere 224.The locking bolt 213 on the disc 212 presses against the winding frame 26, braking the winding shaft. Before initially inserting the detection component 2, the suspension rope 27 is kept unwound, and the sphere 224 is housed inside the limiting frame 216. It can be inserted into the connecting sleeve 12 along with the lower hollow tube 22 and the upper hollow tube 21. After adjusting the positions of the limiting frame 216 and the sphere 224, the locking bolt 213 is released from locking the winding shaft. Under gravity, the sphere 224 falls from the bottom of the limiting frame 216, and the suspension rope 27 unwinds synchronously to maintain connection with the sphere 224. The sphere 224 falls along the limiting frame 216. The grouting fullness is detected by the speed and depth of the sphere 224's descent, and the feedback is displayed on the display device 24.
