Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of triaxial sample preparation technology for geotechnical testing, specifically to a sample preparation device and testing equipment for triaxial shear testing of geotechnical materials. Background Technology
[0002] A rock slope containing argillaceous weak interlayers refers to a slope structure in which the rock composition contains argillaceous weak interlayers. These argillaceous weak interlayers are formed under geological processes such as weathering and tectonic disruption, where the original structure undergoes significant changes. These processes, including rock strata fracturing and structural alteration, provide channels for groundwater seepage. Groundwater plays a crucial role in the formation of argillaceous weak interlayers; long-term water flow promotes the argillaceization and softening of the rock, thus forming these interlayers. Primitive argillaceous weak interlayers typically occur under conditions where the upper and lower rock strata are relatively hard, while the middle is relatively soft. Arylized weak interlayers are often characterized by high water content, low strength, and easy deformation. Therefore, even though the rock itself is relatively hard, the presence of argillaceous weak interlayers significantly reduces the overall stability of the slope. Under seismic loading, argillaceous weak interlayers follow the cumulative strain development law and exhibit destructive development characteristics. When argillaceous interlayers are present in the rock mass, their various physical and mechanical properties become the controlling factors of the slope's dynamic response. Rock slopes with thinner argillaceous interlayers and those with thicker argillaceous interlayers exhibit different failure modes, with the latter being more prone to failure. Rock slopes with weak argillaceous interlayers are frequently encountered in engineering projects, such as bridges, dams, and slope construction. In practice, detailed geological surveys are typically conducted on rock slopes with weak argillaceous interlayers to understand the distribution, thickness, and physical and mechanical properties of the interlayers. Based on the geological survey results, appropriate reinforcement measures, such as grouting and anchor bolt reinforcement, are then implemented to ensure the safety and stability of the project. Therefore, measuring the deformation, strength, and other mechanical properties of rock slopes with weak argillaceous interlayers is crucial.
[0003] Traditional triaxial sample preparation apparatus includes a hammer, a compaction cylinder, and a casing. During sample preparation, soil is repeatedly placed into the compaction cylinder and compacted with the hammer until the soil thickness reaches the edge of the cylinder. The casing is then fitted, and soil is added and compacted again to complete the sample preparation. This apparatus cannot accommodate adjustments to the thickness and inclination angle of the clayey weak layer, thus failing to provide similar sample preparation for rock slopes containing clayey weak interlayers. Therefore, the strength and modulus measured using traditional triaxial testing methods will differ from the true values, leading to increased engineering costs and poor economic efficiency. Furthermore, traditional methods for preparing remolded soil samples for triaxial testing (see national standard GB / T 50123-1999) cannot accurately control the compaction thickness of each layer, especially for clayey weak interlayers, resulting in remolded soil samples with poor homogeneity and low efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, traditional triaxial sample preparation equipment is only suitable for the preparation of normal triaxial samples and cannot meet the requirements for the preparation of remolded soil samples containing clay-like weak layers. Utility Model Content

[0016] A geotechnical testing device, comprising the above-mentioned geotechnical triaxial shear test specimen preparation device.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] This invention relates to a geotechnical triaxial shear test specimen preparation device. A mold assembly is installed on a base plate to hold the specimen. Columns are installed on both sides of the base plate on the mold assembly, and adjustable thickness adjustment beams and pressure beams are mounted on these columns. A compaction column is installed on the thickness adjustment beam. The height of the thickness adjustment beam can be adjusted to control the specimen thickness. The bottom surface of the compaction column is set as a slope, and the slope angle of the slope is equal to the inclination angle of the clay-like weak layer, thus adjusting the specimen inclination angle. In practical application, the thickness of each layer is calculated, and the height of the thickness adjustment beam is adjusted according to the specimen layer thickness. When the pressure application component on the pressure beam presses the compaction column onto the upper surface of the thickness adjustment beam, the specimen layer thickness is exactly equal to the required specimen layer thickness, achieving thickness control. Furthermore, during specimen compaction, a compaction column with a corresponding inclination angle can be selected according to the specimen's inclination angle, allowing for specimen angle adjustment to meet the requirements for preparing clay-like weak layers. The device has a simple structure and can produce triaxial shear specimens of weak layers with different angles and thicknesses. It is also easy to operate and can be used to study the physical and mechanical properties of rock masses containing weak interlayers.
[0019] The mold assembly includes a mold, an ascending mold, and a large mold. The ascending mold is detachably connected to the top of the mold. When unloading the sample, the large mold is placed outside the mold. During the sample compaction process, the addition of the ascending mold can prevent uncompacted soil from overflowing during backfilling, and the large mold can assist in unloading the sample.
[0020] The thickness adjustment beams on both sides of the compaction column are equipped with levels to ensure that the thickness adjustment beams remain horizontal after the height of the beams is adjusted, thereby ensuring the stability of the tilt angle of the compacted sample and ensuring the similarity of the sample preparation.
[0021] The compaction column includes a top cap and an angle converter. The top cap and the angle converter are detachably connected. The angle converter is a column with a sloping bottom surface. The slope angle of the sloping bottom surface is equal to the slope angle of the muddy soft layer. By setting the top cap and the angle converter to be detachably connected, the preparation of samples with the required slope angle is made possible, thus improving the versatility of the device.
[0022] The top cap is provided with a threaded guide post on the side where it connects to the angle converter; the angle converter is provided with a threaded hole on the side where it connects to the top cap, which is engaged with the threaded guide post. This engagement connection method enables quick replacement of the angle converter, and the structure is simple and the processing cost is low.
[0023] The thickness adjustment beam has support holes, and a groove is provided around the support holes on the thickness adjustment beam. A support plate is provided in the groove, and a compaction column mounting hole is provided on the support plate. The compaction column extends through the compaction column mounting hole into the mold sleeve assembly. By setting the support plate, groove, and support holes, the support plate can be set to have multiple types of compaction column mounting holes. In practical application, the preparation of triaxial samples of different types can be achieved by replacing the support plate and mold sleeve assembly corresponding to the corresponding compaction column. The operation is simple and has good versatility.
[0024] The pressure application assembly includes a jack mounted on a pressure beam. The power output end of the jack passes through the pressure beam and contacts the top of the compaction column. The jack is connected to a hydraulic pump, which drives the jack. By using a hydraulic pump to drive the jack to apply pressure to the compaction column, the sample is compacted. Compared to the traditional hammer compaction method, the prepared sample has more uniform properties and is more efficient.
[0025] The pressure beam and thickness adjustment beam are fixed by setting threads on the outer wall of the column and by setting nuts that mate with the threads on both sides of the pressure beam and thickness adjustment beam.
[0026] A plurality of positioning holes are provided on the column below the thickness adjustment beam, and screws are installed in the positioning holes to limit the thickness adjustment beam. The positions of the positioning holes can be the standard positions of the thickness adjustment beam when preparing standard triaxial specimens, providing a limit for the preparation of standard triaxial specimens. Therefore, when preparing standard triaxial specimens, the thickness adjustment beam can be directly adjusted to the position defined by the corresponding positioning holes without the need for measurement and subsequent adjustment, thus improving the efficiency of standard triaxial specimen preparation.
[0027] This invention also provides a geotechnical testing device, including the aforementioned geotechnical triaxial shear test specimen preparation apparatus. This testing device can meet the research needs for the physical and mechanical properties of different rock masses containing weak interlayers, and the simulation results are more accurate, ensuring the safety and feasibility of subsequent construction.
