Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of crustal stress and strain observation, specifically an indoor calibration device for a vertical borehole strain gauge. Background Technology
[0002] Vertical borehole strain gauges are used to observe the relative changes in the vertical stress-strain state of the Earth's crust. A vertical borehole strain gauge consists of a long, cylindrical probe. During use, the probe is vertically inserted into the borehole, and cement is used to couple and solidify the probe to the surrounding rock. The vertical stress and strain of the surrounding rock are transmitted to the probe through the cement, causing axial tension and compression. This change is recorded by a high-precision capacitive sensor inside the probe.
[0003] The probe housing of the vertical borehole strain gauge participates in the measurement process and is the core elastic sensing element. During the indoor calibration of the entire instrument, the entire probe needs to be loaded and its elastic deformation measured. Due to the extremely high measurement accuracy of the vertical borehole strain gauge, with a measurement resolution at the level of the strain of the rotating ring (10) to the rotating ring (10), uncertainties caused by the mechanical deformation error of the calibration device, the stability of the force source, the resolution of the standard testing equipment, temperature changes, and environmental vibrations have a significant impact on the measurement results. Therefore, there is currently no effective indoor calibration device for the entire instrument. The common practice now is to calibrate the capacitive sensor inside the probe separately, but this obviously cannot represent the overall performance of the instrument.
[0004] This invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, it proposes an indoor calibration device for a vertical borehole strain gauge. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an indoor calibration device for a vertical borehole strain gauge to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] An indoor calibration device for a vertical borehole strain gauge includes a mounting frame, on one side of which a pressurizing component is provided for changing the vertical stress of the surrounding rock.
[0008] A mounting plate is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting bracket, and a positioning component is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate. A driving mechanism is provided on the cylindrical surface of the positioning component. The driving mechanism is threadedly connected to the positioning component. A fixing device is rotatably connected to the cylindrical surface of the positioning component. The fixing device cooperates with the driving mechanism.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the positioning component includes a sleeve, a support rod is fixedly connected to the cylindrical surface of the sleeve, a cylinder is fixedly connected to the other end of the support rod, the other end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the mounting plate, the cylinder is used to drive the vertical drilling strain gauge to move vertically, and the cylindrical surface of the sleeve is threadedly connected to the driving mechanism.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the driving mechanism includes a rotating ring, which is sleeved on the cylindrical surface of the sleeve. The inner surface of the rotating ring is provided with an internal thread. The rotating ring is threadedly connected to the sleeve. Several actuating rods are fixedly connected to the cylindrical surface of the rotating ring. The rotating ring cooperates with the fixing device.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the fixing device includes several swing arms and sliders, the swing arms are rotatably connected to the sleeve, a spring is fixedly connected to one side of the swing arm, the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the sleeve, and a connecting groove is opened at the other end of the swing arm.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the slider is horizontally slidably connected to the sleeve, a push rod is fixedly connected to one side of the sleeve, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the other end of the push rod, the connecting rod passes through the connecting groove and slides in contact with the swing arm, and a clamping block is fixedly connected to the other end of the slider, the clamping block is used to fix the vertical drilling strain gauge.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the pressurizing component includes a pressurizer, which is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket. A hydraulic rod is fixedly connected to one end of the pressurizer, and a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the hydraulic rod. A plurality of extrusion rods are fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting plate, and the extrusion rods penetrate the mounting plate and slide in contact with the mounting plate.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When the device is in use, the vertical drilling strain gauge passes through the sleeve, and then the rotating ring is rotated by the actuating rod. The rotating ring drives the internal thread to rotate. Since the rotating ring is connected to the sleeve threadedly through the internal thread, the rotating ring moves vertically when it drives the internal thread to rotate. When the rotating ring rises, it squeezes the swing arm, and the other end of the swing arm drives the connecting groove to move. That is, the swing arm drives the push rod to move towards the circular shape of the sleeve through the connecting groove. The push rod then drives the slider and the clamping block to move. That is, the slider and the clamping block measure the vertical drilling strain. The instrument is positioned and fixed to ensure that the center of the vertical borehole strain gauge and the circular sleeve are on the same vertical line. Then, the support rod is raised and lowered by the cylinder, which in turn drives the sleeve to rise and fall. The sleeve, through the clamping block, drives the vertical borehole strain gauge to rise and fall into the borehole. Then, the hydraulic rod is extended by the pressure device, which drives the connecting plate to fall. The connecting plate then drives several extrusion rods to fall and apply pressure to the vertical stress of the surrounding rock in the borehole, thus facilitating the calibration of the entire instrument. This device facilitates the positioning and fixing of the vertical borehole strain gauge and effectively enables indoor calibration of the entire instrument. Attached Figure Description

The sleeve 9, through clamping block 17, drives the vertical borehole strain gauge to rise and fall into the borehole. Then, the hydraulic rod 3 is extended by pressurizer 2, that is, the hydraulic rod 3 drives the connecting plate 4 to fall. The connecting plate 4 drives several extrusion rods 6 to fall and apply vertical stress to the surrounding rock of the borehole, thereby facilitating the calibration of the entire instrument. This device facilitates the positioning and fixing of the vertical borehole strain gauge and effectively enables indoor calibration of the entire instrument.
