[0001] The utility model relates to the field of foundation pit engineering model tests, in particular to a device for placing a supporting structure in a low-strength soft clay model test. Background Art

[0002] In urban construction, the extensive development of underground space has led to the deepening and enlargement of foundation pit projects. However, especially in soft clay areas, foundation pit instability accidents are more frequent. Currently, due to the difficulty of on-site restoration and the limitations of numerical simulation, small-scale models are often used in foundation pit projects to simulate the actual situation in order to better understand the problem and solve practical engineering problems.

[0003] When conducting model tests, the traditional approach is usually to use upright pile placement to penetrate the support structure. However, due to the complexity of soil samples and the physical properties of the support structure, this method has some difficulties and limitations in actual operation, especially in low-strength soft clay model tests. The static pressure penetration process of upright pile placement is difficult and requires high precision control during the penetration process. This method can easily cause the support structure to shift during the penetration process, thereby affecting its final installation position and stability. In addition, especially for flexible support structures, the use of upright pile placement is also difficult to maintain its structural integrity and predetermined shape. These problems will not only affect the stability and effectiveness of the support structure itself, but may also lead to inaccurate test data, thereby affecting the reliability of the entire test results.

[0004] In view of these problems, it is more accurate and convenient to install the support structure by horizontal pile placement. This method allows the support structure to be placed and installed in a horizontal state, simplifies the installation process of the support structure, and reduces the risk of support structure displacement and deformation due to gravity and improper operation.

[0005] In order to facilitate the operation of laying piles horizontally, the present invention provides a novel device that can achieve accurate placement of support structures in model tests, providing better control and accuracy, so that the position and direction of the support structure can be more easily adjusted and confirmed before installation.

[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0029] The following first describes the concepts involved in the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following description of each concept is only to make the content of the present application easier to understand, and does not limit the scope of protection of the present application; at the same time, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other in the absence of conflict. The present application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0030] like Figure 1 - Figure 7 As shown, the utility model provides a device for placing a support structure in a low-strength soft clay model test, including a model box 1, a pile groove 2 is embedded in the model box 1, a support structure 3 is placed in the pile groove 2, and an auxiliary positioning mechanism 4 for limiting and fixing the opposite pile groove 2 is also provided in the model box 1. The auxiliary positioning mechanism 4 includes a side plate 5, two limit plates 6, a driving component 77 for pushing the two limit plates 6 to move, and two fixing components 8 for fixing the opposite pile groove 2. The side plate 5 is fixedly arranged on one side of the top of the model box 1, and slide grooves are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the side plate 5. The two limit plates 6 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the side plate 5, and the two limit plates 6 are respectively slidably connected to the two slide grooves. The driving component 7 is arranged on the back of the side plate 5 and is transmission-connected to the two limit plates 6. The two fixing components 8 are respectively arranged on the two limit plates 6.

[0031] When the utility model is used, the pile slot 2 and the supporting structure 3 need to be placed first. After the soft clay is consolidated and the soft clay surface is leveled in the model box 1, the position of the supporting structure 3 is determined on the leveled soft clay plane, and then the pile slot 2 is carefully placed at the designated position in the soil sample. In order to ensure that the placement position of the pile slot 2 is vertical and stable, when placing the pile slot 2, the two limit plates 6 are driven out by the driving component 7, and then the pile slot 2 is placed in the soil sample after passing through the space between the two limit plates 6, and the pile slot 2 is fixed by two fixing components 8. In addition, the design of the pile slot 2 takes into account the size and shape of the supporting structure 3 to ensure that it can properly accommodate the supporting structure 3. Then, use a suitable tool to remove the soil in the pile slot 2, and place the supporting structure 3 in the empty pile slot 2 to ensure that it fits tightly with the wall of the pile slot 2.

[0032] After the support structure 3 is placed, the pile groove 2 needs to be removed and taken out by hooks and slings. This process requires precise operation to prevent disturbance of the consolidated soil, thereby avoiding affecting the stability of the support structure 3 and the accuracy of the test. After the pile groove 2 is taken out, the support structure 3 is accurately installed in the predetermined position in the model box 1. After the installation of the support structure 3 and the capping of the model box 1 are completed, the model box 1 can be erected to carry out subsequent operations of the test.

[0033] Compared with the prior art, the installation process of the traditional underground support structure 3 is cumbersome, especially when the pile body is penetrated into the soil sample, the arrangement of the model box 1 adopts the planar pile method, allowing the support structure 3 to be placed and installed in a horizontal state, simplifying the installation process of the support structure 3, and reducing the risk of displacement and deformation of the support structure 3 due to gravity and improper operation. In addition, the use of the pile groove 2 can also improve the positioning accuracy of the support structure 3 in the soil sample, avoiding the common position offset problem in the traditional method. The support structure 3 is a conventional technical means for conducting soft clay model tests in the prior art, which is the prior art, and the support structure 3 will not be described in detail here.

[0034] The inner contour of the pile groove 2 is consistent with the outer dimensions of the supporting structure 3. This ensures the height alignment during the placement process, effectively prevents the supporting structure 3 from being offset, and enables the supporting structure 3 to be accurately positioned in the model box 1 and penetrated into the soft clay.

[0035] The first section 2-1 of the pile groove 2 is located on the side of the frame of the model box 1, and the second section 2-2 of the pile groove 2 is closely fitted with the side wall of the supporting structure 3. The first section 2-1 of the pile groove 2 ensures that the supporting structure 3 can be closely combined with the pile groove 2, thereby enhancing the stability of the overall structure and improving the accuracy and efficiency of the installation process. The second section 2-2 of the pile groove 2 is the part where the pile groove 2 contacts the model box 1, and the use of this section can ensure that the pile groove 2 is closely combined with the frame of the model box 1 and is correctly aligned.

[0036] An edge plate 9 is arranged on the top of the pile groove 2, and the edge plate 9 is arranged in a U shape, and a plurality of hook holes 10 are evenly opened on the edge plate 9. The edge plate 9 is arranged to widen the side edge of the pile groove 2, thereby improving the convenience of carrying the pile groove 2 and simplifying the positioning and placement process of the pile groove 2; in addition, the hook hole 10 is arranged on the edge plate 9, and after the support structure 3 is placed, the hook hole 10 allows a tool such as a hook to be inserted, so as to smoothly remove the pile groove 2 without causing unnecessary interference or displacement to the consolidated soil or the support structure 3.

[0037] Furthermore, the driving assembly 7 includes a fixed plate 71 and an adjusting screw 72. The adjusting screw 72 is rotatably arranged on the back of the side plate 5. The fixed plate 71 is threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 72, and both sides of the fixed plate 71 are fixedly connected to the two limit plates 6 respectively.

[0038] Springs 73 are fixedly connected to both sides of the fixing plate 71 , and one end of the spring 73 away from the fixing plate 71 is fixedly connected to the side plate 5 .

[0039] The fixing assembly 8 includes a rotating plate 81 and a positioning bolt 82 . The rotating plate 81 is rotatably arranged on the top of the limiting plate 6 . The positioning bolt 82 is threadedly connected to the rotating plate 81 . The positioning bolt 82 matches the hook hole 10 .

[0040] In order to ensure that the pile slot 2 can be inserted into the soil sample in a vertical state when placed, and to avoid the position deviation of the pile slot 2, when placing the pile slot 2, the staff rotates the adjusting screw 72 to drive the fixing plate 71 to move, thereby driving the two limiting plates 6 to move out along the inner direction of the model box 1, and then the pile slot 2 is passed through the space between the two limiting plates 6 and placed in the soil sample. Through the limiting of the two limiting plates 6, the pile slot 2 can be vertically inserted into the soil sample when placed, and the two edge plates 9 can be stuck in the two limiting plates 6, so that when the pile groove 2 is taken out, the hook can be quickly hooked in, and it is also convenient for the pile groove 2 to be moved out along the inner side walls of the two limiting plates 6 when it is taken out, so as to avoid the displacement of the pile groove 1. By turning the rotating plate 81 to the hook hole 10 at the top of the edge plate 9, and after the positioning bolt 82 is aligned with the hook hole 10, the positioning bolt 82 is rotated to be screwed into the hook hole 10 to fix the pile groove 2, so as to avoid the displacement of the pile groove 2 when the subsequent supporting structure 3 is put in, and when the pile groove 2 needs to be taken out, the auxiliary positioning mechanism 4 can be reset.

[0041] This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and its core ideas of this application. The above is only the preferred implementation method of this application. It should be pointed out that due to the limitations of textual expression and the objective existence of infinite specific structures, ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements, modifications or changes without departing from the principles of this application, and can also combine the above technical features in an appropriate manner; these improvements, modifications, changes or combinations, or the direct application of the concept and technical solution of the invention to other occasions without improvement, should be regarded as the scope of protection of this application.
