11 results about "Strainmeter" patented technology

A strainmeter is an instrument used by geophysicists to measure the deformation of the Earth. Linear strainmeters measure the changes in the distance between two points, using either a solid piece of material (over a short distance) or a laser interferometer (over a long distance, up to several hundred meters). The type using a solid length standard was invented by Benioff in 1932, using an iron pipe; later instruments used rods made of fused quartz. Modern instruments of this type can make measurements of length changes over very small distances, and are commonly placed in boreholes to measure small changes in the diameter of the borehole. Another type of borehole instrument detects changes in a volume filled with fluid (such as silicone oil). The most common type is the dilatometer invented by Sacks and Evertson in the USA (patent 3,635,076); a design that uses specially shaped volumes to measure the strain tensor has been developed by Sakata in Japan.

A three-string multifunctional measuring anchor rod and a measuring method thereof

This invention discloses a three-string multifunctional measuring anchor and its measurement method, belonging to the field of geotechnical engineering monitoring technology. The anchor consists of an anchor section and three-string steel wire strain gauges connected coaxially in alternating configurations. The three steel wires are distributed at 120° intervals along the circumferential cross-section. The strain gauge center column is stiffly matched to the anchor body and can be arranged according to the magnitude of the bending moment. During measurement, the three-string steel wire strain gauges are first calibrated, followed by installation, frequency acquisition, and data calculation. This allows for the simultaneous acquisition of the anchor's axial strain, maximum curvature and direction, axial force, and maximum bending moment. Based on the curvature, further integration can be performed to obtain the deflection and internal settlement curves of the soil and rock mass, determining the maximum settlement value and location. This invention features a segmented combined structure with flexible length adaptation, enabling remote automated monitoring. It combines axial force, bending moment, and internal deformation monitoring functions of the soil and rock mass, and can be used for safety monitoring of tunnels, slopes, foundation pits, and underground mining engineering.

Stability prevention and control test device for roadway cross coal pillar type irregular island working face

The invention discloses a stable prevention and control test device for a roadway crossed coal pillar type irregular island working face, which is characterized in that corresponding stones, soil, coal briquettes, coal cinder and the like are filled and tamped in a top plate cavity of a top plate module to form rock and soil so as to simulate the geological condition of a real roadway top plate, and a triaxial strain gauge and a top plate separation instrument are buried in the rock and soil; therefore, the stress and deformation conditions of the rock soil can be detected. During a test, the top plate module is disassembled, assembled and transferred by using the side conveying module and the lifting module, which is very labor-saving and convenient. In the test process, the lifting oil cylinder can be adopted to drive the upper support to ascend and descend so as to assist in loading and unloading the top plate module and exert initial pressure on rock soil, and then the multiple pressure exerting cylinders are utilized to exert point-shaped pressure on the pressure exerting blocks and the pressure exerting plates so as to simulate confining pressure at different positions of the roadway top plate. Meanwhile, an impact hammer of the impact module can be used for applying impact force at different positions to the upper support, and the impact force can be conducted to the pressure applying block and the pressure applying plate, so that rock burst is simulated.
