[0024] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention proposes a standard penetration test device, which includes a mounting tube 1, on which a benchmark 101 is arranged, a pulley 103 is arranged on the top of the benchmark 101, a sounding rod 2 is passed through the mounting tube 1, a hammer seat 201 is fixedly arranged on the sounding rod 2, a core hammer 203 is passed through the sounding rod 2, the core hammer 203 is located on the upper side of the hammer seat 201, a pull rope 202 is arranged on the core hammer 203, and the pull rope 202 is passed around the pulley 103; a counter includes a counting component arranged on the mounting tube 1 and a trigger member connected to the counting component in a transmission manner, one end of the trigger member is in contact with the core hammer 203, and the counting component is used to record the number of hammering times of the core hammer 203; a limit member is arranged in the mounting tube 1, for ensuring that the axis of the sounding rod 2 and the mounting tube 1 overlap; a support member is arranged on the mounting tube 1, for supporting the mounting tube 1.
[0026] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: the function of the pulley 103 is to reduce the friction of the pull rope 202, and the pull rope 202 is used to connect the core hammer 203 and lift it; the number of times the core hammer 203 hits the probe rod 2 is recorded by a counter set on the benchmark 101, and the core hammer 203 hits the probe rod 2 when it hits the triggering member on the counter. Each time the triggering member is triggered, the counter records it once, and the number of knocks can be accurately recorded. The limit member ensures the accurate position of the probe rod 2 when it is knocked, and the support member supports the mounting tube 1 to keep it in the correct position.
[0027] During use, the mounting tube 1 is fixed by the support, and then the sounding rod 2 is inserted into the mounting tube 1, and then the core hammer 203 is passed through the sounding rod 2, and then the core hammer 203 is lifted to the highest point by the pull rope 202, and then dropped. The core hammer 203 will hit the hammer seat 201 of the sounding rod 2 to complete a knock. At the same time, when the core hammer 203 falls, it will contact the trigger part to complete a count, and the core hammer 203 is lifted back and forth to knock until the experiment is completed.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the counting assembly includes a housing 3 set on the benchmark 101, and a mounting shaft 302 rotatably set in the housing 3, a driving arm 5 and two sets of digital disks 501 are set on the mounting shaft 302, and a ratchet 503 is set on one side of each digital disk 501. A driving claw 4 is rotatably set at one end of the driving arm 5, and the driving claw 4 is clamped on the corresponding ratchet 503. A compression spring 502 is set on the driving arm 5, and one end of the compression spring 502 is connected to the housing 3.
[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the trigger member includes a toggle arm 303 rotatably set on the mounting shaft 302, a limiting column 504 is fixedly set on one side of the driving arm 5, and a clamping seat 304 is set at one end of the toggle arm 303, and the clamping seat 304 abuts against the limiting column 504, wherein a rectangular opening 305 is opened on one side of the shell 3, and the end of the toggle arm 303 away from the clamping seat 304 passes through the rectangular opening 305.
[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, a slot 505 is defined on one of the ratchets 503 .
[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, the driving claw 4 includes a first claw 401 and a second claw 402 that are fixedly connected, wherein the first claw 401 and the second claw 402 correspond to the two ratchet wheels 503 respectively.
[0032] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: the two sets of digital disks 501 are decimal. When the trigger is triggered once, one of the digital disks 501 rotates once. When it is transmitted ten times, the other digital disk 501 rotates once. Specifically, the corresponding ratchet 503 is driven to rotate by the driving claw 4. A drop is formed between the end of the first claw 401 and the end of the second claw 402. The end of the second claw 402 is longer. Under normal circumstances, the second claw 402 abuts against one of the ratchet wheels 503. By rotating the toggle arm 303, the driving arm 5 is driven to rotate. At this time, the compression spring 502 is compressed and stored. The driving arm 5 drives the driving claw 4 to move. When the driving claw 4 moves, the ratchet 503 in contact with it will be driven and rotated by the driving claw 4. When the toggle arm 3 After 03 loses the external force, the compression spring 502 releases its capacity, bringing the driving arm 5 and the toggle arm 303 back to the initial position, and the toggle arm 303 waits for the second contact with the piercing hammer 203 and is triggered again; and when triggered, one end of the toggle arm 303 is located on the moving path of the piercing hammer 203, and when the piercing hammer 203 falls, it contacts the toggle arm 303, and the toggle arm 303 rotates downward, while driving the driving arm 5 to rotate to complete the counting. When the piercing hammer 203 returns, the piercing hammer 203 drives the toggle arm 303 to rotate in the opposite direction until the piercing hammer 203 passes, and then the toggle arm 303 falls to the initial position under its own gravity (in this process, the toggle arm 303 does not trigger the rotation of the digital disk 501), waiting for the piercing hammer 203 to be triggered again.
[0033] When one of the number disks 501 rotates nine times, the second pawl 402 falls into the slot 505 of the ratchet 503 abutting it. At this time, the first pawl 401 and the second pawl 402 abut against the corresponding ratchet 503 at the same time. At this time, when the driving arm 5 rotates, it will drive the two ratchet wheels 503 to rotate synchronously once. During the next rotation, the second pawl 402 disengages from the slot 505 of the ratchet 503, causing the first pawl 401 to separate from the corresponding ratchet 503. At this time, only the second pawl 402 abuts against the corresponding ratchet 503. During driving, only one number disk 501 rotates. In this way, every time one of the number disks 501 rotates ten times, the other number disk 501 rotates once, completing a two-digit count.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, an observation port 301 is provided on the housing 3 .
[0035] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: the observation port 301 is used to observe the counting status of the two number disks 501.
[0036] like Figure 6 As shown, the limiting member includes multiple groups of rolling members, each of which includes two groups of limiting wheels 106 rotatably arranged in the installation cylinder 1, wherein two adjacent rolling members are vertically staggered with each other.
[0037] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: the plurality of groups of limiting wheels 106 are used to limit the feeler rod 2 to prevent the feeler rod 2 from tilting when going deeper, and the purpose of the vertical interlacing is to improve the limiting accuracy.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, the support member includes multiple groups of support frames 104 hinged on the mounting cylinder 1.
[0039] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: the function of the support frame 104 is to support the installation cylinder 1, and the support frame 104 can be stored for easy transportation.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, one end of each support frame 104 is hinged to a bottom plate 105 .
[0041] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: the function of the bottom plate 105 is to increase the contact surface with the ground and prevent the support frame 104 from sinking into the soil.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, a scale mark 102 is provided on the marker rod 101 .
[0043] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: the scale lines 102 can enable the observer to quickly and intuitively see the changes in the measurement parameters, which is convenient for recording and analyzing data.
[0044] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is: when in use, the installation tube 1 is fixed by the support frame 104, and then the sounding rod 2 is inserted into the installation tube 1, and then the core hammer 203 is passed through the sounding rod 2, and then the core hammer 203 is lifted to the highest point by the pull rope 202, and then dropped. The core hammer 203 will hit the hammer seat 201 of the sounding rod 2 to complete one knock. At the same time, when the core hammer 203 falls, it will contact the toggle arm 303 and drive it to rotate to complete one counting. The core hammer 203 is lifted back and forth to knock until the experiment is completed. Finally, the numbers on the two digital disks 501 are read from the observation port 301 to obtain the number of knocks.
[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model and are not limiting. Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
