Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soil sample diameter-changing cutting, in particular to a soil sample diameter-changing cutting instrument used for preparing soil samples for geotechnical tensile tests. Background Art

[0002] The conventional method of making soil samples in tensile tests is to fill the layers in parallel, which has three shortcomings. First, the bonding force between the contact surfaces of each layer is weak and easy to pull apart. Second, the lower layer is compacted in layers during filling, and the compaction work and compaction degree are large, resulting in uneven distribution of soil strength. Third, the shrinkage trend of the sample near the two ends is restricted under the action of tension. In addition to tension, it is also affected by shear force. It is a complex stress area, not a strict tensile state. Therefore, the sample is first damaged at the end when it is tensile. Due to the influence of the sample's own weight, the sample's damage surface is mostly at the upper end. Therefore, the data measured by this method cannot represent the true tensile strength of the sample.

[0003] Traditional variable diameter cutting instruments all use manual soil cutting discs. Their structure is that a rotating disc is installed on the upper and lower parts of a fixed frame. When preparing samples, the soil sample is placed between the two discs and clamped, and then the fixed soil sample disc is rotated. The sample preparer needs to use a soil cutting knife or a wire saw to perform manual cutting or cutting at a constant speed. There are the following problems in the sample preparation process:

[0004] (1) The soil cutting type is single, and cylindrical soil samples can be cut, but variable diameter soil samples cannot be cut;

[0005] (2) The manual cutting accuracy is not high, which may cause problems such as inconsistent upper and lower diameters of the soil sample, non-round soil samples, and soil fractures, which may easily cause the sample to fail;

[0006] (3) Since the structures of different types of soil are different, soil cutting at a constant speed will inevitably increase the disturbance of the soil sample;

[0007] (4) When the water content of the soil is low, the loess is hard or hard plastic. When using a soil cutter to cut the soil, it is difficult to cut it with little force. If too much force is used, it is easy to cause the soil sample to break (or partially fall off). When the water content of the soil is high, the loess is in a plastic state and its strength is greatly reduced. When cutting the soil, if the force is uneven, it is easy to cause the soil sample to twist or partially cut excessively.

[0008] Reference may be made to CN 107941586 A: Clay is filled in three layers along the axial direction of a cylindrical soil sample in a mold, and each filled layer is compacted. At the same time, reinforcing ribs are inserted at the ends of each layer of the soil sample to strengthen the strength of the end of the layer, so that the contact surface of the soil sample layers is parallel to the direction of the applied tension. The method of the present invention achieves the goal of obtaining the true value of the tensile strength of the soil sample by strengthening the strength of the sample end and eliminating the strength defects of the sample in the tensile direction.

[0009] CN 2935121 Y: The invention is composed of a fixed frame, a soil cutting disc with a fixed needle, a soil cutting disc connecting vertical shaft, a cutting frame guide shaft, a cutting frame positioning shaft, a cutting frame support platform, and a cutting frame. The cutting frame can be rotated and is easy to load and unload. When cutting soil samples, a wire saw or a soil cutting knife is used to closely contact the two vertical columns of the cutting frame, and the soil sample is carefully cut from top to bottom, and the cutting frame is rotated while cutting until the soil sample is cut to a specified diameter.
