Description

IN-SITU MICROSCOPIC OBSERVATION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MICRO-FRACTURES OF ENGINEERING ROCK MASS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an observation device and method for micro-fractures of engineering rock mass, and in particular, relates to an in-situ microscopic observation device and method for micro-fractures in surrounding rock of engineering rock mass, which belongs to the field of control of engineering rock mass.
Description of Related Art
In underground engineering such as underground coal mining and tunnel construction, insitu fissure observation is widely used as an important technical means. By acquiring the development state of fissures of engineering rock mass, especially micro-fractures of engineering rock mass, the in-situ fissure observation can provide a basis for obtaining the initial damage of rock mass and the study on evolution of the micro-fractures after loading, provide a reliable technical support for stability control on surrounding rock and disaster prevention, and play a very important role in technologies such as grouting reinforcement and water plugging at a construction site.
However, the in-situ observation on fissures in surrounding rock has the following problems:
1. The underground in-situ fissure observation device mainly adopts a traditional borehole peeper, and a peeper probe used in the traditional borehole peeper can only capture a distribution of macroscopic fissures larger than 1 mm in size, and not a distribution of microfractures having a size of 0.01 mm. For example, Chinese patent CN106437680A discloses an observation device. Although the device achieves in-situ observation on fissures, the device can only capture macroscopic fissures that can be observed by naked eyes, and not microfractures having a smaller size. Therefore, a conventional in-situ observation device cannot acquire the distribution of micro-fractures in underground surrounding rock.
2. Most of the existing micro-fracture observations are indoor laboratory observations after field sampling. For example, Chinese patent CN103163134A discloses a device and technique, in which samples are taken back to a laboratory for observation. Although a distribution of micro-fractures of rock can be obtained, this method leads to destruction of rock and fails to obtain a real distribution of in-situ fissures of the surrounding rock.
3. A microprobe with a high magnification is needed to observe micro-fractures, but the microprobe can only have a very small field of view because of its high magnification. The original fissure observation devices mostly use manual pushing of a probe for observation, which is obviously not applicable for the microprobe.
Therefore, there is a need for a device and method for in-situ observation on microfractures in surrounding rock, in which micro-fractures in surrounding rock can be observed, and also the device can be operated automatically, achieving automatic observation.
