Microwave Rock Strength Testing System With Isolated Cabin

The microwave transmitting device is integrated with the existing strength measurement system, combining microwave irradiation capability with mechanical loading and strength testing functions in a unified platform. This allows simultaneous application of microwave energy and mechanical stress on rock specimens while measuring strength parameters, thereby enhancing research capability without requiring entirely separate systems.

The strength measurement system is designed to serve multiple functions: it can perform conventional strength testing without microwave, apply microwave irradiation alone, and conduct combined microwave-rock strength experiments. The system accommodates different specimen types (various sizes and shapes) and testing modes, making it a versatile research platform that justifies the added complexity through expanded functionality.

The testing cabin employs a double-layer nested structure where the inner layer provides microwave isolation to contain electromagnetic radiation within the testing chamber, ensuring measurement accuracy and operator safety. The outer layer provides heat insulation to manage thermal effects from microwave heating. These concentric layers are integrated into the existing testing framework, with each layer serving a specific protective function that enhances reliability.

The double-layer cabin structure acts as an intermediary barrier between the microwave source and the external environment. The inner microwave-isolating layer prevents electromagnetic leakage, while the outer heat-insulating layer manages thermal transfer. This intermediate protective structure enables safe and accurate experimentation by decoupling the intense microwave field from the measurement instruments and operators.
