Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rock sample tensile-shear failure testing technology, specifically a rock sample single-sided tensile-shear testing device. Background Technology

[0002] Tensile-shear failure of rocks is crucial in geotechnical engineering. In underground engineering, such as tunnel excavation, the surrounding rock is subjected to complex geostress. When the stress state is a combination of tension and shear, the rock may experience tensile-shear failure. This failure mode commonly occurs in rock slopes, sidewalls of underground chambers, and other similar locations. Traditional analytical methods often focus on single tensile or shear failure, with limited research on combined tensile-shear failure, which is closer to actual working conditions. Due to the high cost and technical limitations of experimental methods, as well as the inherent inhomogeneity and complexity of rock materials, the failure behavior of rocks under tensile-shear conditions is difficult to study. Therefore, it is necessary to invent a single-sided tensile-shear testing device for rock samples. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical defects.

[0004] To solve the above problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a rock sample single-sided tensile shear test device, including a buffer pad, a pressure-bearing top plate, a slide rail groove, a U-shaped force transmission rod, an I-shaped slide rail, a rock sample fixing upper kit, a rock sample fixing lower kit, a U-shaped support kit, a support plate, a support base plate, and a cuboid rock sample.

[0005] The tensile stress application device includes a compression top plate, a U-shaped force transmission member, and a support plate. The compression top plate and the U-shaped force transmission member are connected by adhesive bonding, and the U-shaped force transmission member and the support plate are connected by adhesive bonding. It is used to apply tensile stress to the cuboid rock sample during the test.

[0006] The support and buffer device includes a buffer pad, a slide rail slot, a U-shaped support kit, and a support base plate. The buffer pad and the U-shaped support kit are connected by adhesive bonding, the slide rail slot and the U-shaped support kit are connected by welding, and the U-shaped support kit and the support base plate are connected by welding. This device is used to reduce the damage to the device caused by the direct collision between the pressure plate and the U-shaped support kit when the cuboid sample is damaged.

[0007] The shear stress application device includes an I-shaped slide rail, an upper rock sample fixing kit, and a lower rock sample fixing kit. The I-shaped slide rail is slidably connected to the slide rail slot. The upper rock sample fixing kit and the lower rock sample fixing kit are connected to the support plate by interlocking compression through the I-shaped slide rail. It is used to apply the shear stress on the cuboid rock sample during the test.

[0008] The vertical columns on both sides of the U-shaped support kit are hollow with closed outer sides, and have an opening of a certain length on the lower inner side. The U-shaped force transmission rod, the pressure-bearing top plate, and the support platform plate are welded together. The U-shaped support kit, the support base plate, and the slide rail slots are welded together. The U-shaped force transmission rod is inserted into the U-shaped support kit through the pre-reserved hollow opening. The U-shaped support kit and the U-shaped force transmission rod are slidably connected. The pressure-bearing top plate is welded to the U-shaped force transmission rod, and the support base plate is welded to the U-shaped support kit. Under its own weight, the pressure-bearing top plate rests against the buffer layer. The buffer layer is bonded to the U-shaped support kit with high-strength structural adhesive. The buffer layer is made of rubber material to reduce the impact of the test. When the rectangular rock sample is damaged, the device is damaged due to direct collision between the pressure plate and the U-shaped support kit. High-strength structural adhesive is applied to the upper surface of the support plate, and the rectangular rock sample is placed on the upper surface of the support plate to bond with the support plate. The lower and upper rock sample fixing kits are then fitted onto the rectangular rock sample from bottom to top through the pre-reserved square holes. The slide rail slots and the I-shaped slide rails are connected by sliding. High-strength structural adhesive is applied to the lower surface of the I-shaped slide rails. The U-shaped force transmission rod is pulled upward to make the upper surface of the rectangular rock sample contact the lower surface of the I-shaped slide rails, bonding the lower surface of the I-shaped slide rails to the upper surface of the rectangular rock sample. After the bonding strength is reached, the loading of the rectangular rock sample is completed.

[0009] Preferably, the rock sample single-sided shearing device is made entirely of high-quality steel.

[0010] Preferably, all components of the single-sided shearing device for rock samples can be manufactured and installed according to construction requirements.

[0011] Preferably, all components of the single-sided tensile shear test device for rock samples are treated with rust prevention technology.

[0012] The advantages of this invention compared to existing technologies are as follows:

Compared with existing rock tensile-shear testing instruments in the laboratory, this device has the advantages of simple structure and accurate measurement. Attached Figure Description

[0021] To make the content of this utility model easier to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a single-sided tensile-shear test device for rock samples includes a buffer pad 1, a pressure-bearing top plate 2, a slide rail groove 3, a U-shaped force transmission rod 4, an I-shaped slide rail 5, an upper rock sample fixing kit 6, a lower rock sample fixing kit 7, a U-shaped support kit 8, a support plate 9, a support base plate 10, and a cuboid rock sample 11.

[0023] The tensile stress application device includes a compression top plate 2, a U-shaped force transmission member 4, and a support plate 9. The compression top plate 2 and the U-shaped force transmission member 4 are connected by adhesive bonding, and the U-shaped force transmission member 4 and the support plate 9 are connected by adhesive bonding. It is used to apply tensile stress to the cuboid rock sample in the test.

[0024] The support and buffer device includes a buffer pad 1, a slide rail slot 3, a U-shaped support kit 8, and a support base plate 10. The buffer pad 1 and the U-shaped support kit 8 are connected by adhesive bonding, the slide rail slot 3 and the U-shaped support kit 8 are connected by welding, and the U-shaped support kit 8 and the support base plate 10 are connected by welding. This device is used to reduce the damage to the device caused by the direct collision between the pressure plate 2 and the U-shaped support kit 8 when the cuboid sample 11 is damaged.

[0025] The shear stress application device includes an I-shaped slide rail 5, an upper rock sample fixing kit 6, and a lower rock sample fixing kit 7. The I-shaped slide rail 5 is slidably connected to the slide rail groove 3. The upper rock sample fixing kit 6 and the lower rock sample fixing kit 7 are connected to the support plate 9 by interleaved pressing through the I-shaped slide rail 5, which is used to apply the shear stress on the cuboid rock sample 11 in the test.

[0026] Before the test begins, the single-sided tensile-shear test apparatus for rock samples is assembled. The two vertical columns of the U-shaped support kit 8 are hollow with closed outer sides, and a certain length of opening is left on the lower inner side. The U-shaped force transmission rod 4, the pressure-bearing top plate 2, and the support plate 9 are welded together. The U-shaped support kit 8, the support base plate 10, and the slide rail slot 3 are welded together. The U-shaped force transmission rod 4 is inserted into the U-shaped support kit 8 through the reserved hollow opening. The U-shaped support kit 8 and the U-shaped force transmission rod 4 are slidably connected. The pressure-bearing top plate 2 is welded to the U-shaped force transmission rod 4. The support base plate 10 is welded to the U-shaped support kit 8, so that the pressure-bearing top plate 2 rests against the buffer pad 1 under its own weight. The buffer pad 1 is bonded to the U-shaped support kit 8 with high-strength structural adhesive. The buffer pad 1 is made of rubber. To mitigate damage to the rectangular rock sample during testing, and to prevent device damage caused by direct collision between the pressure plate 2 and the U-shaped support kit 8, high-strength structural adhesive is applied to the upper surface of the support plate 9. The rectangular rock sample 11 is then placed on the upper surface of the support plate 9 and bonded to it. The lower rock sample fixing kit 7 and the upper rock sample fixing kit 6 are then fitted onto the rectangular rock sample 11 from bottom to top through pre-reserved square holes in a staggered manner. The slide rail slot 3 and the I-shaped slide rail 5 are connected by sliding. High-strength structural adhesive is applied to the lower surface of the I-shaped slide rail 5. The U-shaped force transmission rod 4 is pulled upward to bring the upper surface of the rectangular rock sample 11 into contact with the lower surface of the I-shaped slide rail 5, bonding the lower surface of the I-shaped slide rail 5 to the upper surface of the rectangular rock sample 11. Once the bonding strength is reached, the rectangular rock sample 11 is complete.

[0027] During the test, the assembled rock sample single-sided tensile-shear test device was placed on a true three-dimensional multi-scale simulation test machine. The vertical pressure plate 12 of the three-dimensional multi-scale simulation test machine was used to apply vertical pressure to the top plate under pressure, so that the rock sample was in a tensile state, but not exceeding its ultimate tensile strength. The rear pressure plate 13 of the three-dimensional multi-scale simulation test machine was used to apply horizontal axial force from the rear of the rock sample single-sided tensile-shear test device, so that it just contacted the lower fixing kit 7 of the rock sample. Then, the front pressure plate 14 of the three-dimensional multi-scale simulation test machine was used to apply horizontal axial force from the front of the rock sample single-sided tensile-shear test device, so that it just contacted the upper fixing kit 6 of the rock sample. The rear pressure plate 13 of the three-dimensional multi-scale simulation test machine was kept stationary. Pressure was slowly applied through the front pressure plate 14 of the three-dimensional multi-scale simulation test machine and the data was recorded. Finally, the failure value of the cuboid rock sample 11 in the tensile-shear test was obtained.
