The invention provides a test device and method for measuring the
wear coefficient of a shield cutter in a river-crossing sea sand layer. The device comprises a
test bench, a
test material box, a model cutter head, a model cutter, a rotating speed sensor, a
torque sensor, an
air pump and a PLC
control system, wherein the
test bench is composed of four cylindrical stand columns, an upper top plate,a limiting movable plate, a bottom plate, a hydraulic
drive motor fixing support and a base; a
test material for simulating a river-crossing sea sand layer is contained in the
test material box; themodel cutter is installed on the model cutter head; the
air pump is connected to the test material box through an air conveying
pipe to pressurize the test material box; and the rotating speed sensorand the
torque sensor are connected with the PLC
control system through
data lines respectively. According to the method, the average value of the wear coefficients of the cutter under different
quartz contents can be obtained, the relationship between the
quartz contents and the wear coefficients of the cutter is fitted through the average value of the wear coefficients of different
quartz contents, and the influence of the quartz contents in the river-crossing sea sand layer on cutter wear can be explored.
