[0002] Sand equivalent is to determine the content of clay or impurities contained in various fine aggregates such as natural sand, artificial sand, stone chips, etc., in order to assess the cleanliness of the aggregate. In the sand equivalent test, the fine aggregate and the flushing liquid need to be fully mixed in the test tube. After the test, a large number of stains that are difficult to clean are attached to the inner wall of the test tube.

The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 9A sand equivalent test tube which is easy to disassemble and clean comprises a test tube body 1. The upper and lower ends of the test tube body 1 are respectively threadedly connected with a tube cap 3 and a base 2 through an upper external thread 14 and a lower external thread 16 provided on its outer wall. The test tube body 1 consists of two pieces of a left tube wall 11 and a right tube wall 12 which are clamped together to form a cylindrical shape. An elastic locking ring 18 for binding the left tube wall 11 and the right tube wall 12 is sleeved in the middle of the outer wall of the test tube body 1.
[0031] In this embodiment, a scale line 13 is provided on the outer surface of the right cylinder wall 12, and a limit ring 15 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the elastic locking ring 18 in the middle of the outer wall of the test cylinder body 1; the limit ring 15 can prevent the elastic locking ring 18 from slipping off the test cylinder body 1.
[0032] Furthermore, the thickness of the limit ring 15 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the elastic locking ring 18. When the elastic locking ring 18 is sleeved on the outer wall of the test tube body 1, the elastic locking ring 18 is in a tight state; the tight state ensures that the elastic locking ring 18 restrains the test tube body 1, so that the left tube wall 11 and the right tube wall 12 fit tightly.
[0033] Secondly, the cross-sections of the engaging surfaces of the left cylinder wall 11 and the right cylinder wall 12 are respectively in matching concave and convex shapes, and a sealing gasket 17 for improving the sealing performance is provided between the engaging surfaces of the left cylinder wall 11 and the right cylinder wall 12. The upper external thread 14, the lower external thread 16 and the limit ring 15 are divided into two halves and are integrally formed on the corresponding outer side walls of the left cylinder wall 11 and the right cylinder wall 12; the concave and convex design facilitates the engagement between the left cylinder wall 11 and the right cylinder wall 12, and the sealing gasket 17 increases the sealing effect of the test cylinder body 1.
[0034] Furthermore, a lower internal thread 21 matched with the lower external thread 16 is provided in the base 2, a fixed protrusion 22 with an outer diameter equal to the inner diameter of the test tube body 1 is provided in the middle of the base 2, and a sealing ring 23 is provided between the outer bottom end of the fixed protrusion 22 and the bottom end of the lower internal thread 21; the fixed protrusion 22 can limit the test tube body 1, and the sealing ring 23 increases the sealing between the base 2 and the test tube body 1.
[0035] Secondly, a seat plate 24 is integrally formed at the bottom end of the base 2, and the outer diameter of the seat plate 24 is larger than the outer diameter of the test tube body 1; the seat plate 24 allows the test tube to be stably placed on the test bench, thereby increasing stability.
[0036] Furthermore, an upper internal thread 32 matched with the upper external thread 14 is provided in the tube cap 3, a gasket 33 is provided between the top of the upper internal thread 32 and the top of the test tube body 1, and a plurality of anti-skid protrusions 31 are regularly and integrally formed on the outer wall of the tube cap 3; the gasket 33 increases the sealing between the tube cap 3 and the test tube body 1, and the anti-skid protrusions 31 facilitate the rotation of the tube cap 3.
[0037] Working principle: When using the sand equivalent test tube of the utility model which is easy to disassemble and clean, the user first engages the left tube wall 11 and the right tube wall 12, then sleeves the elastic locking ring 18 on the outer wall of the test tube body 1 after engagement, and then rotates the test tube body 1 to make it threadedly connected to the base 2, injects fine aggregate and flushing liquid into the test tube, and finally rotates the tube cap 3 to make it threadedly connected to the top of the test tube body 1. After the test is completed, rotate the tube cap 3 and the base 2 in turn to make them fall off from the test tube body 1, remove the elastic locking ring 18, separate the left tube wall 11 and the right tube wall 12, and the disassembly is completed, and the inner wall of the test tube can be cleaned.
[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and an explanation of the technical principles used. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the utility model involved in the present application is not limited to the technical solution formed by a specific combination of the above technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by any combination of the above technical features or their equivalent features without departing from the concept of the utility model.
