Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mining engineering technology, and in particular relates to a guide rail sliding type tunnel surrounding rock deformation probe monitoring device and method. Background Technology
[0002] As mineral resource mining gradually moves deeper, human excavation operations disrupt the original stress balance, causing stress redistribution. During this process, the surrounding rock in the tunnel is prone to deformation under stress, leading to safety accidents.
[0003] Currently, the commonly used methods for detecting surrounding rock in roadways are mainly laser rangefinders or full-section scanning. Laser rangefinders have high accuracy, but the high concentration of dust in underground roadways can interfere with their normal operation, and they are also difficult to install. Full-section scanning technology obtains deformation data of the entire surface of the surrounding rock in the roadway through high-density point cloud acquisition and 3D modeling, but the equipment cost is extremely high and it is difficult to deploy on a large scale. It is also difficult to obtain accurate data for special roadways such as those with water inrush.
[0004] Therefore, in order to improve or even solve the above problems, it is necessary to develop a tunnel surrounding rock deformation probe monitor that is less affected or unaffected by environmental interference, easy to install, inexpensive, and relatively accurate. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and achieve both low cost and resistance to harsh environments, the present invention aims to provide a low-cost, easy-to-operate, highly environmentally adaptable, and relatively accurate guide rail sliding type roadway surrounding rock deformation probe monitor and method, thereby improving the monitorability of roadway surrounding rock deformation and ensuring mine safety.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technology:
[0007] This utility model relates to a guide rail sliding type tunnel surrounding rock deformation probe monitor and method. The device mainly includes a grid-type guide rail, a guide rail grounding fixer, a guide rail relative angle fixer, a monitor guide rail, a guide rail connector, a universal wheel probe, a cylindrical probe, a cylindrical dense coil helical spring, a multi-functional instrument panel, a microcomputer, a spring connector, a probe sleeve, a pressure gauge, and an audible and visual alarm.
[0008] The grid-type guide rail is a C-shaped steel guide rail arranged in a grid pattern to facilitate the movement and fixation of the monitor on the surrounding rock. As the tunnel is excavated, the guide rail can be extended through the guide rail connector to expand the monitor's monitoring range.
[0009] The rail grounding fixture consists of three telescopic support legs that can be fixed in length or angle and a rail extension section, used to fix the relative position of the rail to the ground.
[0010] The guide rail relative angle fixing device is similar to the guide rail grounding fixing device, and is used to fix the relative position of the guide rail and the surrounding rock.
[0011] The monitor guide rail is set on the base plate in front of the surrounding rock and fixed with a fixed support device for moving the surrounding rock deformation probe monitor.
[0012] The guide rail connector is a C-shaped metal buckle that is fixed between two guide rail sections that need to be connected by screws, thereby extending the guide rail distance and increasing the monitorable area.
[0013] The omnidirectional wheel probe is fixed to the end of the probe to protect the probe from wear during the movement of the monitor.
[0014] The cylindrical dense-coil helical spring connects the probe and the pressure gauge at the front and rear. It maintains its original length at the start of the measurement and is used to convert the probe's extension and retraction into axial pressure, which is then transmitted to the pressure gauge.
[0015] The multi-functional instrument panel includes a strain gauge display, a microcomputer, and several buttons, including a power button, a zeroing button, a suction cup control button, a unit conversion button, a warning value setting button, a confirmation button, and a numeric keypad. It is used to convert pressure gauge readings into surrounding rock strain values and simplify monitor operation.
[0016] The microcomputer is attached to the back of the multi-functional instrument panel and can be operated simply by the buttons on the instrument panel. It is used to convert the electrical signal transmitted by the pressure gauge into the strain value of the monitoring point, and can also perform other simple data processing and output.
[0017] The spring connector is a steel ring, which is arranged on the pressure gauge and the probe respectively. It is used to fix the position of the spring and transmit the extension and retraction of the probe to the spring to cause its deformation.
[0018] The probe sleeve is fixed to the lower end of the box-type strain gauge to fix and protect the probe.
[0019] The pressure gauge is fixed at the upper end inside the box-type strain gauge and is used to detect the spring pressure and convert it into an electrical signal to be transmitted to the microcomputer. The monitoring sensitivity of this monitor can be adjusted by replacing and adjusting the pressure gauge.
[0020] The audible and visual alarm is fixed on the multi-functional instrument panel and consists of an electronic speaker and a red alarm light. When the spring compression exceeds the warning value set on the instrument panel, the audible and visual alarm will emit a red light and announce the relative position of the current roadway surrounding rock monitor.
[0021] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] 1. This utility model adopts a combination of guide rail and box-type strain gauge to realize the monitoring of deformation of the surrounding rock in the tunnel. The application of guide rail allows the strain gauge to monitor a certain point on the surrounding rock more flexibly, which saves costs and improves efficiency.
[0023] 2. This utility model converts the strain of the surrounding rock in the tunnel into the deformation of a dense coil spring. Compared with existing methods for monitoring the surrounding rock in tunnels, this utility model is less susceptible to harsh environments such as dust or water inrush.
[0024] 3. This utility model adopts a threaded telescopic probe and a universal wheel probe, which further reduces the requirements for the surrounding rock environment and can be moved and measured on uneven roadway surrounding rock.
[0025] 4. The components of this utility model device are easy to manufacture, the structure is simple, and the construction process is simple. It can monitor the deformation of the surrounding rock in the roadway through its characteristics such as movable fixed-point monitoring, on-demand adjustable monitoring sensitivity, and high environmental resistance.
