Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of in-situ testing technology in geotechnical engineering, and specifically relates to an automated borehole shear tester. Background Technology
[0002] The shear strength of soil has a significant impact on slope stability, and the internal friction angle and cohesion are important parameters of soil shear strength. The internal friction angle reflects the frictional resistance between particles within the soil or granular material, while cohesion reflects the bond strength between soil particles. The internal friction angle and cohesion can be determined through triaxial compression tests, direct shear tests, and in-situ borehole shear tests. In these tests, soil samples are subjected to shear forces under different normal stress levels until failure occurs. By analyzing the test data, the internal friction angle and cohesion of the soil can be determined. While in-situ borehole shear tests exist, they suffer from drawbacks such as long testing cycles, low automation, limited applicability, and cumbersome operation.
[0003] Existing borehole shearing instruments are complex to operate, susceptible to human error, and unable to maintain a stable shearing rate. They also have a low degree of automation and cannot detect the impact of shear rate on soil shear strength parameters. These limitations restrict experimental research. Therefore, there is an urgent market need for an automated borehole shearing instrument that is simple in structure, rationally designed, easy to operate, provides accurate testing, and minimizes human intervention.

[0034] The borehole shear measuring device includes a shear probe 1 that extends into the borehole 2, a pull rod 3 connected to the shear probe 1, a shear displacement detection device 12 mounted on the pull rod 3, and a normal displacement gauge 5 mounted on the shear probe 1.
[0035] The vertical lifting operating device includes a force transmission base 10, a sensor 9, a worm gear mechanism mounted on the force transmission base 10, a worm wheel 7 connected to the worm gear mechanism, and a hollow screw 27 set inside the worm wheel 7 and threadedly connected to the worm wheel 7. The force transmission base 10 is set at the upper end of the borehole 2. A pull rod clamp 6 is set at the top of the hollow screw 27 to clamp the pull rod 3. A torque arm 17-3 is set on the pull rod clamp 6. A bearing 30 is set between the worm wheel 7 and the sensor 9. The pull rod 3 passes through the sensor 9, the bearing 8, the hollow screw 27, and the pull rod clamp 6 in sequence.
[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, the worm gear mechanism includes two worm gear mounting seats 17-4 mounted parallel to each other on the force transmission base 10, and a worm 17-1 mounted between the two worm gear mounting seats 17-4. The worm 17-1 meshes with the worm wheel 7. The worm 17-1 and the worm gear mounting seats 17-4 are rotatably engaged. One end of the worm 17-1 extends out of the worm gear mounting seat 17-4 and is provided with a threaded portion 17-2 at that end.
[0037] The motor drive device includes a motor 18 and a sprocket assembly. The sprocket assembly includes a drive wheel 19-2 mounted on the output shaft of the motor 18 and a driven wheel 19-1 mounted on the threaded portion 17-2 at one end of the worm gear 17-1.

[0038] like Figure 2As shown, the shearing probe 1 includes a first shearing plate 1-1, a second shearing plate 1-2, a first steel plate 1-3 mounted above the first shearing plate 1-1, a second shearing plate 1-4 mounted above the second shearing plate 1-2, and an arc-shaped connector 1-5 connecting the first steel plate 1-3 and the second shearing plate 1-2. The first steel plate 1-3 and the second shearing plate 1-2 are parallel to each other, and the arc-shaped connector 1-5 is connected to the pull rod 3.
[0039] The cylinder 4 and the normal displacement gauge 5 are both installed between the first shear plate 1-1 and the second shear plate 1-2. One end of the cylinder 4 and one end of the normal displacement gauge 5 are connected to one side of the first shear plate 1-1. The other end of the cylinder 4 is provided with a baffle 4-1. The baffle 4-1 and the other end of the normal displacement gauge 5 are both connected to one side of the second shear plate 1-2.
[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, the shear displacement detection device 12 includes a fixed clamp 12-2, the upper part of the pull rod 3 passes through the fixed clamp 12-2, a first adjustment knob 12-1 is provided on one side of the fixed clamp 12-2, a connecting rod 12-3 is provided on the other side of the fixed clamp 12-2, a fixing ring 12-4 is provided at the end of the connecting rod 12-3 away from the fixed clamp 12-2, a second adjustment knob 12-5 is provided on one side of the fixing ring 12-4, a shear displacement gauge is installed inside the fixing ring 12-4, and the movable end 12-6 of the shear displacement gauge is in contact with the operating platform 11.
[0041] The circuit control device includes a power supply 24, a power switch 25, a micro switch 23, and a circuit control box 20. The circuit control box 20 contains a circuit board 25, a power-on timer 21, a foam board 26, and a potentiometer 22 embedded in the foam board 26.
[0042] like Figure 7 As shown, power supply 24, power switch 25, power timer 21, potentiometer 22, micro switch 23, and motor 18 are connected in sequence to form a circuit.
[0043] The power switch 25 is equipped with a switch button 25-1, which controls the circuit to turn on and off by operating the switch button 25-1. The potentiometer 22 is embedded in the reserved hole in the foam board 26 to ensure that it will not slip when adjusting the potentiometer 22. The power-on timer 21 has a zeroing button 21-1. The circuit controller 20 is equipped with a glass window 20-1 corresponding to the power-on timer 21, through which the time of the power-on timer 21 can be observed.
[0044] like Figures 5 to 6As shown, potentiometer 22 has a knob 22-1 and a scale line 22-3 on its upper part. Knob 22-1 extends out of the circuit control box 20. Knob 22-1 has an indicator line 22-2 corresponding to the scale line 22-3. The indicator line 22-2 displays the current resistance of potentiometer 22. Rotating knob 22-1 changes the position of rotating rod 22-7 to change the resistance of potentiometer 22, thereby changing the current in the circuit. Potentiometer 22 has a left pin 22-4, a right pin 22-6, and a middle pin 22-5. The middle pin 22-5 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 22-7. In this invention, the left pin 22-4 is connected to the negative terminal of the power-on timer 21, and the middle pin 22-5 is connected to the first positive terminal 23-4 of the micro switch 23.
[0045] In this practical application, the resistance is adjusted by rotating the knob 22-1 on the potentiometer 22, which in turn adjusts the current in the circuit. Changing the current adjusts the operating power and speed of the motor 18. A change in motor speed alters the upward movement speed of the pull rod 3, thus changing the shear rate of the shear probe 1. The shear rate of the shear probe 1 can be obtained by comparing the displacement elongated by the shear displacement detection device 12 with the time displayed on the energized timer 21. By measuring the shear strength and shear strength parameters of the soil at different shear rates, the influence of shear rate on the shear strength of the soil can be studied.
[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, the micro switch 23 includes an operating lever 23-1, a drive lever 23-2 connected to the operating lever 23-1, and a contact lever 23-6 connected to the drive lever 23-1. The contact lever 23-6 is fixedly connected to the negative terminal 23-3 of the micro switch 23, and the contact lever 23-6 is in contact with either the first positive terminal 23-4 or the second positive terminal 23-5. In this invention, the negative terminal 23-3 of the micro switch 23 is connected to the positive terminal of the motor 18, and the first positive terminal 23-4 is connected to the middle pin 22-5 of the potentiometer 22. The micro switch 23 is mounted on the support 28.
[0047] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, after the motor 18 is powered on, the motor 18 rotates, driving the drive wheel 19-2 to rotate. The drive wheel 19-2 drives the driven wheel 19-1 to rotate via the chain 19. The driven wheel 19-1 drives the worm 17-1 to rotate. The worm 17-1 drives the worm wheel 7 to rotate. Under the limit of the torque arm 17-3 and the pull rod clamp 6, the rotation of the worm wheel 7 is converted into the upward movement of the hollow screw 27. The hollow screw 27 drives the pull rod clamp 6 to move upward, which in turn drives the pull rod 3 to move upward. As a result, the shear probe 1 also moves upward. The shear displacement detection device 12 extends, and the shear displacement can be obtained.
[0048] The lever clamp 6 has a limiting groove, through which the lever 3 passes. The cross-section of the part of the lever 3 that mates with the lever clamp 6 is consistent with the cross-section of the limiting groove. The shape of the limiting groove 6 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown. Under the restriction of the lever clamp 6, the lever 3 can only move up and down and cannot rotate around its own central axis.
[0049] In this invention, sensor 9 is a force sensor.
[0050] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, when the pull rod 3 moves upward, the shear displacement detection device 12 extends to the expected displacement. The connecting rod of the shear displacement detection device 12 will touch the operating rod 23-1 of the micro switch 23. The operating rod 23-1 drives the drive rod 23-2 to move upward. The upward movement of the drive rod 23-2 will cause the contact rod 23-6 to rotate, so that the contact rod 23-6 is disconnected from the positive terminal 1 23-4 and connected to the positive terminal 2 23-5, thereby realizing the circuit power failure. After the circuit is broken, the motor 18 stops rotating, and the pull rod 3 also stops moving.
[0051] In this invention, the output end of sensor 9 is connected to the longitudinal force input end of the geotechnical mechanics data acquisition instrument 16. The force experienced by the upward movement of the pull rod 3 is input to the data acquisition instrument 16 through sensor 9. The geotechnical mechanics data acquisition instrument 16 can obtain the shear force value. The shear stress can be obtained by comparing the shear force with the effective area of the first shear plate 1-1 and the second shear plate 1-2 in the shear probe 1. The output end of the shear displacement detection device 12 is connected to the longitudinal displacement input end of the geotechnical mechanics data acquisition instrument 16. The shear stress-displacement relationship curve can be obtained. The output end of the normal displacement gauge 5 is connected to the lateral displacement input end of the data acquisition instrument 16. The normal stress value can be calculated based on the pressure value displayed by the pressure gauge 14-2 in the pressure regulator 14. Thus, the relationship curve between normal displacement and normal stress can be obtained.
[0052] The geotechnical mechanics data acquisition instrument 16 used in this utility model adopts existing technology. The structure and principle of the geotechnical mechanics data acquisition instrument 16 can be referred to the invention patent with publication number CN100394459C and invention name "Multi-window data acquisition instrument for geotechnical mechanics test".
