Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of mine filling body testing devices, in particular to a multi-size filling body mechanical strength testing and hydration parameter real-time monitoring device and method. BACKGROUND
[0002] The filling mining method not only can adapt to the mining demand of mine extending to deep part, effectively cope with complex working conditions such as high stress, high temperature and high water pressure, relieve ground stress concentration through the active supporting action of filling body, and ensure the safety of deep mining; at the same time, it can also realize the resource utilization of mine tailings, waste rock and other solid wastes, and reduce the land occupation caused by stacking. As the core of filling mining technology, the performance of cemented filling body is directly related to the stability and safety of the stope.
[0003] Under the environment of deep mining, the performance of cemented filling body directly affects the safety and stability of the stope. Due to the size effect, the strength of filling body tested in the laboratory cannot fully represent the actual filling strength of the underground stope. Comparative study found that the actual filling strength in the field is often higher than the laboratory test results, but the specific difference ratio still needs further study.
[0004] Cemented filling body is composed of inert solid waste, cementing material, water and activator, and its strength depends on the mechanical properties of the consolidation body formed by the hydration products of cementing material. However, the high temperature and high pressure environment of deep mining significantly affects its mechanical properties and hydration consolidation. Although 76% of the newly built metal mines in China use filling method, they still face the problems of strength attenuation and volume shrinkage under deep environment, which seriously affect the stability of the stope. Therefore, clarifying the force-thermal properties of cemented filling body under deep environment and its influence on the stability of the stope is the key to ensuring the safety and efficiency of deep mining.
[0005] At present, although there are achievements in the regulation and control of hydration and consolidation behavior of cemented filling body under deep complex environment, the systematic and scientific theoretical guidance is not perfect. Existing researches are mostly focused on material ratio optimization and single factor analysis in the laboratory, which cannot fully consider the influence of deep multi-physical field coupling, and cannot effectively solve the problems of internal temperature difference, uneven strength distribution and crack propagation of large-size filling body. At the same time, the mechanism of hydration heat release in deep environment and its influence on the long-term performance of consolidation body are not well studied, and there is a lack of targeted regulation strategy. Therefore, clarifying the evolution law of hydration process and establishing a scientific regulation method are the current key directions.
[0006] To investigate the mechanical properties and hydration heat release process of filling materials of different sizes, it is usually necessary to prepare experimental specimens of different specifications and install and deploy sensors. Currently, preparing experimental specimens of different sizes requires the use of multiple different molds, making the process cumbersome and complex. Furthermore, existing methods generally lack real-time monitoring of the thermodynamic characteristics during hydration, and cannot directly extract standard specimens for mechanical testing comparison after the hydration consolidation monitoring data has been statistically analyzed. Therefore, to investigate the thermodynamic characteristics (such as matrix suction, water content, conductivity, and temperature and humidity) of filling materials of various sizes during their hydration consolidation process, and to achieve correlation analysis between monitoring and mechanical properties, it is urgently necessary to invent a device that can both prepare experimental specimens of different sizes and study the correlation characteristics between the mechanical strength of filling materials and hydration parameters.

[0043] This invention discloses a device and method for testing the mechanical strength and real-time monitoring of hydration parameters of multi-size infill bodies. The device includes detachable side plates, a permeable bottom plate, a rubber sealing strip, and a multi-functional top plate. The side plates and the permeable bottom plate are connected via grooves and sealed with the sealing strip, allowing for the formation of test block molds ranging from 100mm*100mm*100mm to 400mm*400mm*400mm. The multi-functional top plate is divided into four areas: Area A houses temperature, humidity, and heat flow sensors via heat-conducting copper pipes; Area B contains a matrix suction sensor; Area C contains moisture content and conductivity sensors; and Area D uses a stainless steel mesh to pre-divide the mechanical testing module. Furthermore, the module can be placed in a standard curing chamber for curing, thus integrating the mechanical strength testing and real-time monitoring of hydration parameters of multi-size infill bodies. This eliminates the need for subsequent segmentation steps, improving experimental efficiency and accuracy, and providing support for exploring the correlation between the mechanical strength and hydration parameters of multi-size infill bodies.
[0044] Specifically, the technical solution of the present invention first provides a device for testing the mechanical strength of multi-size filling bodies and real-time monitoring of hydration parameters, including: Multiple elongated side plates made of polymer plastic or non-metallic material with fixing grooves; upper and lower connecting grooves are provided on the upper and lower sides, and corresponding through threaded holes are provided at the upper and lower connecting grooves, and multiple fixing grooves are evenly arranged on the inner side for fixing other side plates.
[0045] A permeable base plate made of polymer plastic or non-metallic material is provided with evenly distributed base plate fixing grooves and permeable mesh, and threaded holes are provided in the corresponding multi-functional top plate A area.
[0046] The grooves in the permeable bottom plate and the side plate are matched and have the same specifications, allowing for a tight connection. They are also equipped with multiple rubber sealing strips of the same specifications but different lengths, as well as multiple cylindrical sealing strips.
[0047] The multifunctional top plate is made of polymer plastic or non-metallic materials and is divided into four areas A, B, C, and D, each accounting for 1 / 4 of the total area. Each area can be equipped with different functions to perform synchronous multi-dimensional monitoring and pretreatment of the test blocks. Area A has a through hole; Area B is equipped with a matrix suction sensor fixing device; Area C is equipped with moisture content and conductivity sensor fixing devices; Area D is a 1 / 4 notch that can be used as a pouring port and as a pretreatment section for mechanical testing.
[0048] The four side walls of the box-shaped frame are all detachable and combinable; the inner side of the side walls is provided with side plate positioning grooves, the upper and lower sides are provided with side plate connecting grooves, and the bottom plate is provided with a bottom plate insertion positioning groove; the bottom plate slots are used for disassembling and replacing the permeable bottom plate. The box frame can be used to make four types of standard specimens through the free combination of its side plates, including but not limited to 100mm*100mm*100mm cubes, 200mm*200mm*200mm cubes, 300mm*300mm*300mm cubes, and 400mm*400mm*400mm cubes.
[0049] The side plates are connected to each other by threaded holes on the side plate connecting groove to adjust the height of the side plates. The cross-sectional dimensions can be adjusted by using the side plate positioning groove. The combined side plates are tightly fitted to the upper surface of the permeable bottom plate. The permeable bottom plate is detachably connected to the box-shaped frame by being embedded in the bottom plate positioning groove.
[0050] In a preferred embodiment, the ABC section can be further equipped with a hydration consolidation monitoring sensor, the notch section D is a set pouring inlet, and a mechanical test pretreatment area.
[0051] In a preferred embodiment, the maintenance monitoring box frame is made of polymer plastic or non-metallic material. When the box frame is made of polymer plastic or non-metallic material, after the curing of the poured filling body is completed, the side plate and permeable bottom plate assembly can be directly disassembled to remove the test specimens.
[0052] In a preferred embodiment, the side plates can be combined and disassembled according to the size requirements of the experimental specimen by using the threaded holes at the upper and lower connecting grooves, thereby changing the height and cross-sectional size of the experimental specimen and obtaining curing specimens of different sizes.
[0053] In a preferred embodiment, after selecting appropriate dimensions and combining them, the curing frame is tightly connected and fixed by the grooves. Corresponding rubber sealing strips can be used to seal the grooves and the threaded holes at the bottom, forming a regularly shaped filled curing body. Specifically, after determining the size of the filled body test block to be manufactured, the frame can use rubber sealing strips of different lengths to seal the grooves on the side plates and bottom plate; and use cylindrical sealing strips to seal the threaded holes on the bottom plate to ensure the regular shape of the filled body test block and reduce experimental errors.
[0054] In a preferred embodiment, if the mold is only used as an experimental specimen, the demolding time depends on the properties of the cementitious material; after curing, the permeable base plate and side plates of the polymer plastic material or non-metallic material are directly peeled off to obtain the filling specimen of the required size.
[0055] In a preferred embodiment, if real-time monitoring of the hydration parameters of the filling material and mechanical testing pretreatment of the mold are required, a multi-functional cover plate can be added: A certain number of hollow heat-conducting copper tubes can be embedded in the through-hole in area A, and the sensor can be inserted into the hollow copper tube to realize data acquisition; The monitoring sensor for Zone B can be a matrix suction sensor, which is inserted into the slurry through a cover plate to collect data in real time.
[0056] Zone C can be equipped with an integrated moisture content and electrical conductivity sensor, which is embedded inside the filling specimen through a pre-set installation structure on the cover plate, enabling real-time acquisition of moisture content and electrical conductivity data of the specimen.
[0057] Area D is the notch in the cover plate, where an isolation stainless steel screen can be installed. After the hydration parameters in areas A, B, and C are monitored and the data is processed, the stainless steel screen in area D can be disassembled, eliminating the need for a segmentation step, to directly obtain a standard mechanical testing module. The strength of this module can then be calculated through mechanical testing and compared with the hydration monitoring data to further explore the correlation between the mechanical strength of the filling material and the hydration parameters.
[0058] Therefore, the multifunctional cover plate can divide the filling specimen into four parts, each part corresponding to the monitoring of the filling hydration parameters, including the sensor installation function and the pretreatment of the filling mechanical test.
[0059] In a preferred embodiment, the multifunctional cover plate has evenly distributed through holes. A number of hollow copper tubes with a diameter of 8mm, spaced 50mm apart, are fixed at the threaded holes in the base plate for mounting temperature and humidity sensors. The sensors are inserted into the hollow copper tubes to collect data. The sensor placement area is limited to region A of the filled specimen.
[0060] In a preferred embodiment, the monitoring equipment is selected as follows: temperature monitoring can be performed using an RC-4H type temperature and humidity recorder, and heat flux density monitoring can be performed using an HFP01 type heat flux sensor. The above equipment is used to monitor and record the temperature and humidity changes during the hydration heat release process of the filling body in real time.
[0061] In a preferred embodiment, a multifunctional cover plate can fix a matrix suction sensor, with the sensor's placement area limited to region B of the filling specimen. A MeterTeros21 sensor can be used, with data acquired in real time by inserting the cover plate into the slurry.
[0062] In a preferred embodiment, the multifunctional cover plate can be equipped with an integrated moisture content and conductivity sensor, with the sensor's deployment range limited to region C of the filling specimen. A 5TE type sensor can be selected to perform the relevant parameter monitoring task. This sensor is embedded inside the filling specimen through a pre-set mounting structure on the cover plate and can collect the moisture content and conductivity data of the specimen in real time.
[0063] In a preferred embodiment, an insulating stainless steel mesh can be arranged at the D-notch of the multifunctional cover plate. This mesh, secured with wire, forms a 50mm*50mm*50mm cubic grid, eliminating the need for segmentation of the filling adhesive after curing. After curing, the area can be directly tested for mechanical properties by removing the mesh.
[0064] Example like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a real-time monitoring device for hydration parameters of multi-size filling bodies under temperature-stress coupling conditions, including: a side plate made of polymer plastic or non-metallic material 1; an upper connecting groove 2; bolt holes in the upper connecting groove 3; a lower connecting groove 4; bolt holes in the lower connecting groove 5; a side plate fixing groove 6; 3mm bolts 7; a permeable bottom plate made of polymer plastic or non-metallic material 8; a bottom plate fixing groove 9; a permeable mesh 10; threaded holes in the bottom plate 11; a rubber sealing strip 12; a threaded heat-conducting copper pipe 13; a stainless steel screen 14; a multi-functional top plate made of polymer plastic or non-metallic material 15; a top plate penetration hole 16; a matrix suction sensor fixing device 17; a MeterTeros21 sensor 18; a moisture content and conductivity sensor fixing device 19; and a 5TE type sensor 20. All side panels of the enclosure are removable. The side panels are made of polymer plastic or non-metallic material and are 460mm long, 100mm wide (excluding the upper and lower connecting grooves), and 10mm thick. The inner fixing groove is 10mm wide, 5mm deep, and 100mm long. A fixing groove is set every 100mm. The groove on the right end is 20mm from the edge. The upper and lower sides are provided with connecting grooves with a thickness of 5mm. The connecting grooves are provided with through threaded holes, which are 130mm and 350mm away from the farthest end, respectively, and the hole diameter is 3mm. The permeable base plate, made of polymer plastic or non-metallic material, is a 460mm*460mm*250mm cuboid with evenly distributed bottom grooves spaced 100mm apart. Each groove is 460mm long, 5mm deep, and 10mm wide, with a 5mm distance from the edge. The base plate also features threaded holes corresponding to the multi-functional A area, with a diameter of 8mm and a depth of 10mm. Multiple threaded holes are arranged at 50mm intervals, totaling 25 holes. A permeable grid is also provided, which can be adjusted according to the specific conditions of the experimental curing filling to meet specific needs. The side plate grooves and the permeable floor grooves are of the same specifications and can be directly embedded at the side plate connection points to form a stable curing box structure. After determining the curing dimensions, rubber sealing strips of different lengths (10mm wide, 5mm thick) and 8mm diameter, 10mm long can be used to seal the bottom, side plate grooves, and threaded holes inside the curing box before pouring, thereby obtaining a regular filling curing body and reducing experimental errors.
[0065] Figure 1 The system uses 16 side plates connected by bolt holes to maintain a filling body test block with a size of 400mm*400mm*400mm. After assembling the box structure of the 400mm*400mm*400mm filled specimen, a multi-functional cover plate is added to it, which can be used for various hydration monitoring and mechanical test pre-segmentation. The specific process is as follows: The multi-functional cover plate is made of a 470mm*470mm*10mm polymer plastic or non-metallic material. A 1 / 4 section of the base plate features 25 threaded holes with a uniform 50mm spacing and an 8mm diameter, used to house 8mm diameter heat-conducting copper pipes. These pipes pass through the top plate's penetration holes, ensuring even distribution. Temperature and humidity sensors can be inserted into these hollow copper pipes for data acquisition and analysis of temperature and humidity changes in the filling material during curing. Another 1 / 4 section houses a matrix suction sensor at its center, which is inserted into the slurry through the cover plate for real-time data acquisition. A further 1 / 4 section contains moisture content and conductivity sensors, allowing for the selection of appropriate sensors to monitor relevant parameters. The sensor is embedded inside the filling specimen through a pre-installed structure on the cover plate, enabling real-time acquisition of the specimen's moisture content and electrical conductivity data. The remaining 1 / 4 of the cover plate can be directly cut off and used as a pouring inlet. This inlet can be formed by dividing the cover plate into 25 pieces of 200mm*200mm stainless steel mesh, securing them with wire ties to create a 50mm*50mm*50mm cubic grid. This grid is then placed into the 1 / 4 area. After curing, a regular mechanical test specimen can be obtained through the isolation effect of the mesh. The mechanical strength parameters of the filling can be analyzed through experiments such as uniaxial compression tests, acoustic emission signal monitoring tests, longitudinal wave velocity and initial porosity tests. The above operation process allows for the study of the mechanical strength and hydration parameters of the filling.
