[0031] In this embodiment, by putting a preset weight of sand into the box and compacting it appropriately, the sand will exert pressure on the supporting plate 2 and wrap the simulated tool 10. Then, driven by the motor 3, the take-up reel 4 exerts pressure on the connecting rope 5, driving the supporting plate 2 to make horizontal uniform linear motion. At this time, the tension sensor 7 detects the tension on the connecting rope 5, and the pressure on the supporting plate 2 is obtained according to the preset weight of the sand, thereby obtaining a more accurate friction coefficient of the sand.

[0032] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 The simulation tool 10 includes a connecting portion 101 and a simulation portion, wherein the connecting portion 101 is inserted into the carrier plate 2 and the simulation portion is exposed from the carrier plate 2, wherein the specific structure of the simulation portion can be designed according to the TRD tool to be simulated to meet different measurement requirements.

[0033] In order to ensure the authenticity of the simulation, in one embodiment of the present utility model, please refer to Figure 1There are multiple simulated cutters 10, and the multiple simulated cutters 10 are arranged at intervals along the moving direction of the carrier plate 2. The specific number of simulated cutters 10 can be selected according to the TRD cutter to be simulated, and it can be kept consistent with the situation of the construction process as much as possible. In addition, the layout of the multiple simulated cutters 10 can also be distributed in a matrix or irregularly to meet different measurement requirements.

[0034] Further, in one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 The box body and the frame 1 are enclosed to form an activity space 201, one end of the supporting plate 2 facing the take-up drum 4 passes through the bottom of the box body and is exposed in the activity space 201, and most of the structure of the connecting rope 5 is in the activity space 201, so that when the motor 3 pulls the supporting plate 2 to move horizontally through the connecting rope 5, the connecting rope 5 is only connected to the take-up drum 4 and the supporting plate 2, and does not contact other objects, thereby avoiding the connecting rope 5 from being worn by other objects, extending the service life of the connecting rope 5, and improving the accuracy of measurement.

[0035] In order to further improve the accuracy of the measurement, in one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 The device for measuring the friction coefficient between sand and TRD tool also includes a slide rail 11 and a roller 12. The slide rail 11 is arranged on the frame 1, and the roller 12 is arranged on the side of the carrier plate 2 facing away from the simulated tool 10. The roller 12 is movably arranged on the slide rail 11. Through the cooperation of the slide rail 11 and the roller 12, when the carrier plate 2 moves horizontally, the friction between the carrier plate 2 and the frame 1 can be minimized to reduce the influence of the friction between the carrier plate 2 and the frame 1 on the measurement result, and further improve the accuracy of the measurement.

[0036] Further, in one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 The device for measuring the friction coefficient between sand and TRD tool also includes an elastic limit block 6, which is arranged on the frame 1, and the bearing plate 2 can be abutted against the elastic limit block 6 for limiting position. By setting the elastic limit block 6, when the bearing plate 2 moves horizontally to the extreme position, it will not directly contact the frame 1, but is used to contact the elastic limit block 6, thereby protecting the bearing plate 2 and the frame 1 and extending the service life of the device.

[0037] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1The box body is enclosed by a front side plate (not shown in the figure), a left side plate 901, a rear side plate (not shown in the figure) and a right side plate 902 in sequence. The bottom of the front side plate, the bottom of the left side plate 901, the bottom of the rear side plate and the bottom of the right side plate 902 are all fixed to the frame 1, and the left side plate 901 and the right side plate 902 are both provided with avoidance grooves for avoiding the bearing plate 2; the device for measuring the friction coefficient between sand and TRD tool also includes a reinforcing plate 13, one end of the reinforcing plate 13 is connected to the frame 1, and the other end of the reinforcing plate 13 is connected to the top of the left side plate 901. The reason for this arrangement is that the power assembly is located on the side of the left plate 901 away from the right plate 902, that is, when the motor 3 drives the supporting plate 2 to move horizontally through the connecting rope 5, the movement direction is from right to left, and due to the friction between the supporting plate 2 and the sand in the box body, the sand also tends to move to the left, that is, the sand will exert a certain force on the left plate 901. In this case, by setting the reinforcing plate 13, the connection strength between the left plate 901 and the frame 1 can be guaranteed, thereby ensuring that the measurement can be carried out normally.

[0038] Further, in one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 The reinforcing plate 13 includes a reinforcing section and a covering section. The reinforcing section is connected to the top of the left side plate 901. The covering section and the reinforcing section are rotatably connected via a rotating shaft 131. The opening above the box body can be exposed by rotating the covering section, so that sand can be put into the box body. Then, the opening above the box body can be covered by rotating the covering section, thereby preventing external sand or other objects from falling into the box body during the process of pulling the carrying plate 2 to move, thereby affecting the measurement results and ensuring the accuracy of the measurement.

[0039] In order to obtain the measurement results conveniently, in one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 The device for measuring the friction coefficient between sand and TRD tool also includes a pressure sensor 8. The pressure sensor 8 is arranged on the supporting plate 2. The specific size of the pressure on the supporting plate 2 is obtained through the pressure sensor 8. In this way, there is no need to weigh the sand before putting it in, which simplifies the measurement steps. At the same time, the value of the pressure on the supporting plate 2 is more accurate, that is, the friction coefficient finally measured is more accurate.

[0040] Further, in one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 The device for measuring the friction coefficient between sand and TRD tool also includes a display screen 15. The display screen 15 is exposed on the frame 1. The display screen 15 is communicatively connected with the tension sensor 7 and the pressure sensor 8. The values ​​measured by the tension sensor 7 and the values ​​measured by the pressure sensor 8 can be directly displayed on the display screen 15. By setting the display screen 15, the measurement data can be seen intuitively.

[0041] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 The device for measuring the friction coefficient between sand and TRD tool also includes a processor 14, which is arranged on the frame 1, and is electrically connected to the tension sensor 7 and the pressure sensor 8. The display screen 15 is communicatively connected to the display screen 15. The processor 14 can process the values ​​measured by the tension sensor 7 and the values ​​measured by the pressure sensor 8 to obtain the friction coefficient, and at the same time, all three values ​​are displayed on the display screen 15, so as to clearly and intuitively obtain the friction coefficient of the sand.
