Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of geotechnical engineering and particularly discloses a compacting hammer for preparing large-scale reshaped soil samples. Background Art

[0002] In geotechnical experiments, using undisturbed soil is crucial for preserving the soil's physical and chemical properties and obtaining more accurate experimental data. However, in indoor experiments or large-scale simulation studies, reconstituted soil is often used instead of undisturbed soil due to difficulties in sampling, transporting, and preserving undisturbed soil. Reconstituted soil is a soil sample with similar basic physical properties to those of the undisturbed soil, prepared by mixing and compacting the disturbed soil sample based on known basic physical properties.

[0003] Currently, the preparation methods of remolded soil samples are mainly divided into two categories: compaction method and consolidation method. The compaction method is to use a hammer of a certain mass to drop from a certain height to compact the soil sample to the designed height in one layer or layers; the consolidation method is to crush and screen the air-dried soil, and the obtained soil particles are fully mixed with distilled water to obtain a thin mud slurry slightly larger than the liquid limit, which is consolidated into a sample under vertical load. At present, the device for sample preparation using the compaction method relies on a compaction cylinder, and the remolded soil samples produced are small and cannot support large-scale geotechnical tests. On the other hand, the structure is simple, the weight of the compaction hammer is fixed and cannot be adjusted, and the applicable scenarios are limited. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide an independently designed compaction hammer structure for preparing large reshaped soil samples and supporting large geotechnical experiments, solving the problems that the compaction weight of existing compaction devices cannot be adjusted and the reshaped soil samples produced are small.

[0005] The technical solutions adopted in this utility model are as follows:

[0006] A compacting hammer for preparing large reshaped soil samples, comprising a compacting hammer frame and a compacting hammer body;

[0007] The hammer frame includes a cylindrical rod and a base plate fixed to the bottom end of the cylindrical rod, and a scale is provided on the cylindrical rod;

[0008] The compacting hammer body includes a bottom hammer and a group of sub-hammers with different masses stacked on the bottom hammer. A circular hole is provided at the center of the bottom hammer and the sub-hammer. The compacting hammer body is inserted into the cylindrical rod through the circular hole and is tightly attached to the bottom plate. A fastener is provided on the top sub-hammer to fix the compacting hammer body to the compacting hammer frame.

[0009] Furthermore, two threaded rods symmetrical about the circular hole are fixed on the bottom hammer, and small holes symmetrical about the circular hole are provided at corresponding positions of the sub-hammers. The threaded rods match the small holes, and several sub-hammers are fixed on the threaded rod of the bottom hammer through the small holes and nuts.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom hammer and the split hammer are both square steel plates in top and bottom views, and the threaded rod on the bottom hammer and the small holes on the split hammer are both arranged on the upper and lower diagonals of the hammer bodies.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom plate is a steel plate with a thickness of 2 mm and a bottom surface of 15 cm×15 cm, and the length of the cylindrical rod is 70 cm.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0013] The new compaction hammer device provided by the utility model abandons the restrictions of the compaction cylinder on the reshaped soil samples produced. The base plate and hammer body of appropriate size can be selected according to needs, and it is used for the production of large-scale reshaped soil. The hammer body part is composed of a bottom hammer and a sub-hammer in a detachable fixing manner. The compaction quality can be adjusted according to actual needs. The structure is simple and practical, and the applicable scenarios are wide. It can maximize the restoration of the properties of the soil samples in the study area, which is of great significance to the reliable reconstruction of the covering soil in the indoor physical model research, and ensures the scientificity and reliability of the final research results.
