Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of geotechnical engineering testing, specifically to a test device and method for the infiltration characteristics of permeable coarse sand cushion layers. Background Technology

[0002] In the context of sponge city construction, permeable pavement, with its rainwater infiltration, retention, and absorption capabilities, has become a core infrastructure for urban flood control, groundwater recharge, and improvement of the road surface thermal environment. The coarse sand cushion layer, as a crucial functional layer connecting the upper and lower layers of permeable pavement, plays multiple roles, including permeability and water conduction, stress dispersion, and filtration and siltation prevention. Its permeability directly determines the drainage efficiency, structural load-bearing stability, and long-term service durability of the permeable pavement. Accurately detecting the permeability coefficient of the coarse sand cushion layer and clarifying the coupling law between material parameters, construction conditions, rainfall conditions, and permeability characteristics is a prerequisite for permeable pavement structural optimization, construction quality control, and operation and maintenance life assessment. Currently, the industry mainly relies on indoor infiltration tests to calibrate the permeability parameters of the coarse sand cushion layer. The structural rationality, ease of assembly, and anti-interference properties of the testing equipment directly determine the accuracy of the test data.

[0003] Currently, conventional coarse sand cushion infiltration test devices in the industry generally have imperfect structural designs, resulting in multiple technical defects such as difficulties in processing and molding, cumbersome disassembly and maintenance, and large test interference errors, making it difficult to balance test reliability and engineering operability. Existing infiltration test equipment has a high degree of overall integration, mostly adopting an integrated sealed cylinder and a porous composite base plate. The components have complex structures, and the sheet metal and machining processes are cumbersome, resulting in high processing and production costs. At the same time, the equipment assembly structure is highly coupled, making disassembly and assembly difficult. Post-test sand sample cleaning, pipeline maintenance, and component repair are extremely inconvenient, resulting in high subsequent maintenance costs. The excessive smoothness of the inner wall of the cylinder causes the test water to easily adhere to the cylinder wall, forming a side-wall flow that seeps into the sample. This deviates from the premise of the vertical one-dimensional seepage test, severely disrupting the seepage flow field and reducing the test accuracy. In addition, the integrated molding cylinder structure makes it easy to disturb the coarse sand sample during the entire process of sample filling, layer compaction, test sampling, and demolding. This damages the original pore structure of the cushion layer, resulting in a large sampling disturbance error. It is impossible to reproduce the actual compaction degree and particle size distribution conditions at the construction site, leading to distorted test data.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a test device and method for the infiltration characteristics of permeable coarse sand cushion layers. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a test device and method for the infiltration characteristics of permeable coarse sand cushion layers.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the technical solution adopted by this invention is as follows: A test device for the infiltration characteristics of a permeable coarse sand cushion layer includes: a test cylinder, which is a detachable multi-segment structure for filling samples inside, with a permeable structure at the bottom and a flow-blocking structure on the inner wall to prevent internal flow; a rainwater simulation component, located at the top of the test cylinder, for simulating rainwater weather inside the test cylinder; and a data acquisition module, located on the test cylinder, for collecting moisture content data at different depths inside the test cylinder.

[0007] By designing the test cylinder into multiple sections that are detachable, it is easy to fill the internal sand and gravel filler layer by layer, and the cleaning of the sand sample after the test is also more convenient. Furthermore, the test cylinder is equipped with a flow-blocking structure to prevent the formation of internal wall flow, which can effectively avoid the formation of internal wall flow. In addition, the split test cylinder can achieve non-destructive layered sampling without cutting the soil, which can preserve the original pore structure of the filler, avoid fine particle migration and clogging, and improve the test accuracy.

[0008] Further defined, the test cylinder comprises, from top to bottom, a first cylinder, a second cylinder, a third cylinder, a fourth cylinder, and a fifth cylinder. Adjacent cylinders are detachably connected by flanges, and the connecting end faces of the cylinders are provided with sealing grooves, with sealing rings embedded in the sealing grooves.

[0009] By connecting adjacent cylinders with flanges and setting sealing grooves and sealing rings on the connecting end faces of the cylinders, the sealing effect between adjacent cylinders can be improved.

[0010] Further, the inner walls of the second, third, fourth, and fifth cylinders are provided with staggered flow-blocking grooves, which are circular, and the outer walls of the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth cylinders are provided with vertical scales.

[0011] A vertical flow-blocking groove is opened inside the test cylinder as a flow-blocking structure to prevent the formation of internal wall flow. This effectively blocks the test water and prevents it from forming internal wall flow and seeping into the sample along the cylinder wall, thus ensuring the accuracy of the test. The addition of a scale makes it easier to read the water level inside the first cylinder.

[0012] Further specifying, the permeable structure is a porous permeable plate, and the porous permeable plate and the fifth cylinder are integrally formed.

[0013] Further defining the rainwater simulation component, it includes a water supply tank, a liquid pump, and a spray structure; the water supply tank is connected to the inlet end of the liquid pump via a flexible water pipe, and the outlet end of the liquid pump is connected to the spray structure via a flexible water pipe, with the spray structure fixedly positioned directly above the first cylinder.

[0014] Further defining the spray structure, it includes a nozzle, a spray pipe, a slide, a slider, and a connector; the spray pipe is inverted L-shape, the nozzle is connected to the horizontal end of the spray pipe, the slider is wrapped around the vertical end of the spray pipe, the bottom of the vertical section of the spray pipe is closed, the slide is vertically located on the outer wall of the first cylinder, the connector is horizontally connected to the bottom circumference of the vertical section of the spray pipe and communicates with the spray pipe, the outer wall of the slide has an extension groove that does not penetrate the bottom of the slide and is used for the connector to extend out, and the outlet end of the pump is connected to the connector through a soft water pipe.

[0015] This spray structure design allows the entire assembly of the spray nozzle and spray head to be slidably secured within a slide rail via a slider. The connector and the extension slot of the slide rail extend out and connect to the outlet end of the pump, facilitating the assembly and disassembly of the nozzle and spray pipe and enabling separate storage after testing.

[0016] Further, it also includes a water distribution cap, which is conical in shape. The cone of the water distribution cap has two staggered, elongated through-holes at the rounded ends. The inner wall of the first cylinder is provided with a placement groove, the inner diameter of which matches the outer diameter of the water distribution cap, and the water distribution cap is secured in the placement groove.

[0017] This water distribution cap design further improves the uniformity of water sprayed from the nozzle into the filler, and it is easy to assemble and disassemble, and simple to manufacture.

[0018] Further specifying, the data acquisition module includes a moisture content sensor and a signal acquisition device; the moisture content sensors are vertically and evenly spaced on the second, third, fourth, and fifth cylinders, with a total of seven moisture content sensors.

The water-permeable structure is a porous water-permeable plate 16, which is integrally formed with the fifth cylinder 15. The rain simulation component 2 is used to simulate rainy weather inside the test cylinder 1.

The spray pipe 232 is inverted L-shape. The nozzle 231 is connected to the horizontal end of the spray pipe 232. The slider 234 is covered by the vertical end of the spray pipe 232. The bottom end of the vertical section of the spray pipe 232 is closed. The slide 233 is vertically arranged on the outer wall of the first cylinder 11. The connector 235 is horizontally connected to the bottom circumference of the vertical section of the spray pipe 232 and communicates with the spray pipe 232. The outer wall of the slide 233 has an extension groove 236 that does not penetrate the bottom of the slide 233 and is used for the connector 235 to extend. The outlet end of the pump 22 is connected to the connector 235 through a soft water pipe. The data acquisition module 3 is used to collect moisture content data at different depths inside the test cylinder 1. The data acquisition module 3 includes a moisture content sensor 31 and a signal acquisition device 32. The moisture content sensor 31 is vertically and evenly spaced on the second cylinder 12, the third cylinder 13, the fourth cylinder 14 and the fifth cylinder 15.

[0026] By designing the test cylinder 1 into multiple detachable sections, it facilitates the layered filling of internal sand and gravel filler, and makes post-test sand sample cleaning more convenient.

Furthermore, the modular design of the test cylinder 1 allows for non-destructive layered sampling without soil cutting, preserving the original pore structure of the filler, preventing fine particle migration and clogging, and improving test accuracy. Adjacent cylinders are connected via flange 17, with sealing grooves and sealing rings 18 on the connecting end faces to enhance the sealing effect between adjacent cylinders. Vertical flow-blocking grooves 19 are vertically formed inside the test cylinder 1 as a flow-blocking structure to prevent internal wall flow. The design effectively restricts the flow of test water, preventing it from forming an inner wall flow and seeping into the sample along the cylinder wall, thus ensuring the accuracy of the test. The scale 110 makes it easier to read the water level inside the first cylinder 11. The spray structure 23 connects the spray pipe 232 and the nozzle 231, which are slidably locked in the slide rail 233 by the slider 234. The connector 235 and the extension groove 236 of the slide rail 233 extend out and connect to the outlet end of the pump 22, facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the nozzle 231 and the spray pipe 232, and making it easy to store them separately after the test. The water distribution cap 4 further improves the uniformity of the water sprayed from the nozzle 231 into the packing material, and is easy to disassemble and assemble, and simple to manufacture.
