A drive block 8 is provided at the lower end of the mounting base 7, and an adjusting screw 9 is provided below the mounting base 7. Guide slide rods 10 are provided on the front and rear sides of the adjusting screw 9. Acoustic emission sensors 11 are provided at the upper ends of the first pad 2, the second pad 3, the third pad 4, and the fourth pad 5. The arrangement of multiple acoustic emission sensors 11 realizes the eight-channel acoustic emission monitoring under true triaxial loading conditions, supports three-dimensional positioning, and allows the central cavern to observe the entire rockburst process in real time through the miniature camera module in the first pad 2. Visual quantitative analysis is achieved in conjunction with the acoustic emission sensors 11. By rotating the adjusting screw 9, the drive block 8 drives the mounting base 7 to move to the outside of the first pad 2, which facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the miniature camera module and the auxiliary lighting module.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, a central rock sample is placed on the upper end of the base 1. The second pad 3 and the first pad 2 are respectively attached to the front and rear sides of the base 1. The third pad 4 and the fourth pad 5 are arranged symmetrically from left to right, and are respectively attached to the left and right sides of the base 1. The front and rear sides of the first pad 2 are open, and the lower end of the circular through hole 6 is connected to the inner side of the first pad 2. The front and rear sides of the mounting base 7 and the inner side of the first pad 2 are slidably connected by a sliding groove. The driving block 8 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the mounting base 7. The adjusting screw 9 is threadedly connected to the driving block 8. The left and right ends of the adjusting screw 9 are rotatably connected to the first pad 2. The left end of the adjusting screw 9 extends to the outer side of the first pad 2 and is fixedly mounted. Equipped with a knob 91, a guide slide rod 10 and an adjusting screw 9 are arranged in parallel front and rear. The left and right ends of the guide slide rod 10 are fixedly connected to the first pad block 2. The drive block 8 is slidably sleeved with the outer side of the guide slide rod 10. The diameter of the circular through hole 6 is 50mm. The inner side of the first pad block 2 is a square cavity structure that can accommodate the installation of a miniature camera and its auxiliary lighting module (such as an LED light) for capturing the internal changes of the cavern in the rock sample. The arrangement of eight channels of acoustic emission monitoring under true triaxial loading conditions is realized through the setting of multiple acoustic emission sensors 11, which supports three-dimensional positioning. At the same time, the entire rockburst process can be observed in real time through the miniature camera module in the first pad block 2 in the central cavern, and visualized quantitative analysis can be achieved in conjunction with the acoustic emission sensors 11.
[0026] Please see Figures 2-5 In this embodiment, the upper ends of the first pad 2, the second pad 3, the third pad 4, and the fourth pad 5 are all provided with mounting grooves.

Wiring holes one is provided on the left and right sides of the first pad 2 and the second pad 3, and wiring holes two is provided on the rear side of the third pad 4 and the fourth pad 5. Wiring holes one and two are interconnected with the mounting groove. The first pad 2 and the second pad 3 are each provided with three mounting grooves for mounting the acoustic emission sensor 11. The three holes are distributed in a triangle. There are a total of eight acoustic emission sensors 11, which are arranged around the sample. This constitutes a three-dimensional acoustic emission positioning system. Each pad can be connected to the cylinder or rigid frame of the true triaxial loading system to achieve triaxial loading. The probe arrangement holes of all acoustic emission sensor 11 mounting slots are precision machined to fit the 8mm×8mm standard acoustic emission sensor 11 and are kept in stable contact by the tightening spring. By rotating the knob 91, the adjusting screw 9 can be rotated, causing the drive block 8 to slide along the guide slide rod 10, which moves the mounting seat 7 to the outside of the first pad 2, making it convenient to disassemble and maintain the miniature camera module and the auxiliary lighting module. Subsequently, the position of the mounting seat 7 can be adjusted by adjusting the screw 9 to align and reset the miniature camera module with the circular through hole 6.
[0027] During operation, rotating the knob 91 rotates the adjusting screw 9, causing the drive block 8 to slide along the guide slide rod 10, which moves the mounting base 7 to the outside of the first pad block 2. This facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the miniature camera module and the auxiliary lighting module. Subsequently, the position of the mounting base 7 is adjusted by adjusting the screw 9 to align and reset the miniature camera module with the circular through hole 6. The setup of multiple acoustic emission sensors 11 enables an eight-channel acoustic emission monitoring arrangement under true triaxial loading conditions, supporting three-dimensional positioning. Simultaneously, the entire rockburst process can be observed in real time through the miniature camera module inside the first pad block 2 in the central chamber. Visualized quantitative analysis can be achieved in conjunction with the acoustic emission sensors 11. Each pad block structure can be independently processed and replaced, exhibiting good versatility and economy. The device is compatible with mainstream true triaxial loading platforms and can be widely used in experimental scenarios such as rockburst simulation and tunnel stability analysis.
[0028] Through the above steps, an eight-channel acoustic emission monitoring setup under true triaxial loading conditions is achieved by setting up multiple acoustic emission sensors 11, supporting three-dimensional positioning. At the same time, the entire rockburst process can be observed in real time through the micro-camera module in the first pad block 2 in the central chamber. Visual quantitative analysis can be achieved in conjunction with the acoustic emission sensors 11, which solves the problem that true triaxial loading systems generally lack convenient and reliable acoustic emission probe arrangement structures. Especially for complex samples with caverns, traditional devices are difficult to accurately collect multi-dimensional spatial acoustic emission information, which makes the arrangement and collection of multi-directional acoustic emission signals difficult.
