Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of geotechnical test equipment, in particular to a balance system for batch weighing. BACKGROUND

[0002] In a conventional geotechnical test, the water content of soil is a most basic and important detection parameter, for example, participating in the calculation process of the compaction test, the limit water content, and the CBR bearing ratio test. It can be said that various types of geotechnical tests all include the determination of water content. When determining the water content of soil, a representative wet soil sample is usually taken and placed in an aluminum box, the wet weight is weighed after the cover is closed, and then the dry weight is weighed after alcohol is added and burned for three times. After the known mass of the aluminum box is deducted, the water content data is calculated by the mass of water / mass of dry soil. Moreover, the water content of most geotechnical tests also needs to be measured twice in parallel. For example, for each group of soil samples sent for inspection on a construction site (three standard ring knife samples), each ring knife soil sample needs to be measured twice in parallel, and in order to reflect the constant weight after drying, the weighing error of the two times before and after measurement needs to be within the specified value. Thus, for each group of soil samples, the water content needs to be measured 12 times on the balance.

[0003] In actual engineering commissioning, the soil samples sent by different construction stages of a project can reach hundreds of groups, and different geotechnical test projects are commissioned for detection, and the determination of water content is required for these projects. If the current test device is used for measurement, a large amount of manpower will be consumed, and the detection efficiency is low. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a balance system for batch weighing, which is ingenious in design and simple in structure.
