It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.
[0035] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , a coarse-grained soil shearer, comprising:
[0036] Stroke oil cylinder 100
[0037] Feeding and discharging device 200, including a linear drive mechanism 210, a linear limit assist mechanism 220 and a moving platform 230. The moving platform 230 makes a linear movement under the drive of the linear drive mechanism 210 and the assistance of the linear limit assist mechanism 220
[0038] The pressure chamber 300 includes a press base 310, a tank body 320, a top cover 330, and a top shaft 340. The press base 310 is fixed on the moving platform 230. Both the press base 310 and the top cover 330 are detachably and sealingly connected to the tank body 320. The top shaft 340 slidably and sealingly penetrates through the top cover 330. When the moving platform 230 moves above the stroke cylinder 100, the stroke cylinder 100 applies pressure to the press base 310, and the pressure chamber 300 forms a receiving cavity 350 for receiving the specimen 900.
[0039] A displacement sensor 370 is arranged on the top shaft 340.
[0040] A top seat 400 is arranged above the stroke cylinder 100, and there is a space for the pressure chamber 300 to enter between the top seat 400 and the stroke cylinder 100.

In particular, a printer can also be set according to needs, and the control main board is electrically connected to the printer.
[0053] Briefly, the linear driving mechanism 210 of the feeding and discharging device 200 includes a rotating motor 211, a speed reducer and a lead screw slider 213 connected in sequence; the linear limiting auxiliary mechanism 220 generally consists of a guide rail slider or a guide rail bearing.

[0055] In particular, an observation window 321 can be provided on the tank body 320 according to needs to facilitate observing the situation inside the accommodation cavity 350.
[0056] The method for implementing the air extraction and saturation operation of the specimen 900 by using this equipment:
[0057] Open the exhaust valve 360;
[0058] Fill the pressure chamber 300 with water until the exhaust valve 360 overflows, then close the exhaust valve 360, the pressure valve 630 and valve 7;
[0059] Connect the vacuum pump to the piezometer tube 710 and open valve 18;
[0060] Set the water storage tank 510 more than 1 meter above the pressure chamber 300, close the drain valve 520, and open valve 10 and the inlet valve 530;
[0061] Connect the pressure chamber 300 to the pore pressure interface of the measurement and control system 800 through the pore pressure valve 540, and open the pore pressure valve 540;
[0062] Connect the pressure chamber 300 to the back pressure valve 630 valve 8 of the volume change tube 720 through the back pressure valve 630 valve 7, and open valve 7;
[0063] Open the valve 9 of the piezometer tube 710, and close valve 8, valve 11, valve 12, valve 13, valve 14;
[0064] Start the vacuum pump to evacuate the top of the specimen 900 to create a negative pressure inside the specimen 900. After recording the reading of the water inlet piezometer tube 710, slowly open the inlet valve 530. Under the action of the negative pressure, the degassed water gradually saturates the specimen 900 from top to bottom. After water flows out from the bottom of the piezometer tube 710, continue for about 20 minutes and then turn off the vacuum pump.
[0065] Adjust the pressure library 610 in the measurement and control cabinet, set the confining pressure target value (generally ≤ 30 kPa), open the confining pressure interface valve of the pressure chamber 300, start the confining pressure, and wait for the pressure to reach the set confining pressure target value;
[0066] Open the vent valve valve 13 on the piezometer tube 710 to release the negative pressure;
[0067] Until the pore pressure coefficient B ≥ 0.95, it can be considered that the specimen 900 is saturated.
[0068] Pressurization / depressurization operation steps:
[0069] Open the confining pressure device water injection valve valve 3, and close the confining pressure output valve valve 2 and the confining pressure tank valve valve 1);
[0070] Manually control the confining pressure pressurization through the display 810 and the control module 820, start the confining pressure motor until it automatically stops when reaching the limit;
[0071] Close the confining pressure device water injection valve valve 3 and the confining pressure output valve valve 2, and open the confining pressure tank valve valve 1;
[0072] Manually control the confining pressure relief through the display 810 and the control module 820. Start the confining pressure motor until it automatically stops when reaching the limit position.
[0073] Open the water injection valve 3 of the confining pressure device, and close the confining pressure output valve 2 and the confining pressure tank valve 1.
[0074] Manually control the confining pressure increase through the display 810 and the control module 820. Start the confining pressure motor until it automatically stops when reaching the limit position.
[0075] Manually control the confining pressure relief through the display 810 and the control module 820. Start the confining pressure motor until it automatically stops when reaching the limit position.
[0076] Close the water injection valve 3, the confining pressure output valve 2 and the confining pressure tank valve 1 of the confining pressure device.
[0077] Manually control the confining pressure increase through the display 810 and the control module 820. Observe the display 810 / pressure gauge 620. The pressure gradually rises. If it is manual pressurization, it is necessary to continuously change the motor operation speed to achieve stable pressurization.
[0078] When confining pressure output is required, open the confining pressure output valve 2.
[0079] Set the required pressure value (0 - 3 MPa), and press the automatic control [Start / Stop] key on the display 810. The pressure will automatically increase to the set value and maintain the pressure.
[0080] If pressure output is required, open the confining pressure output valve 2, continue to pressurize and stabilize the pressure, and select the automatic control mode during the test.
[0081] After the test is completed, when relieving the pressure, click the automatic control [Start / Stop] key to stop maintaining the pressure. Then press the manual control [Confining Pressure Relief] key. When the pressure value is below 1 MPa, the water injection valve 3 of the confining pressure device can be opened to quickly relieve the pressure.
[0082] If during the test process, the pressurization device reaches the pressurization limit and the motor stops, in this situation, the test can be paused. First, close the confining pressure output valve 2, open the water injection valve 3 of the confining pressure device, and press the [Confining Pressure Relief] key in manual mode until the motor stops.
[0083] First, close the water injection valve 3 of the confining pressure device, open the confining pressure output valve 2, and press the automatic control [Start / Stop] key. When the pressure reaches the set value, the test can be started.
[0084] The back pressure increase process is the same as the confining pressure increase process. Valve 4 is the back pressure tank valve, valve 5 is the back pressure output valve, and valve 6 is the back pressure water injection valve.
[0085] After the specimen 900 is saturated, the consolidation test of the specimen 900 can be carried out. Before the start of the consolidation operation, manually record the readings of the burette 710 after saturation, the initial pore pressure value, and the stable pore pressure value; start the consolidation test. After the consolidation is completed, manually record the readings of the burette 710 after consolidation, the pore pressure readings after consolidation, and the consolidation settlement amount.
[0086] During the shear test, make the specimen 900 contact with the load transfer piston and the axial load sensor 410, etc. When the reading of the axial load sensor 410 slightly moves, immediately stop automatically. After the preparation work of the specimen is completed, according to the determined test method, after the relevant valves on the confining pressure control cabinet are opened (closed), the shear test can be carried out; start the shear test, and the press will apply the axial pressure at the shear rate required by the test method; when the test end condition (the specimen is damaged or the axial strain reaches a certain value) is detected, the software will stop the press and prompt that the test is completed. During the test process, the software will draw the corresponding curve graph according to the time interval (or axial strain interval value) required by the test method, and store the real-time sampling data into the database.
