DEVICE FOR MEASURING RADIAL DISPLACEMENT IN SMALL-DIAMETER TUNNEL MODEL TEST
Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a device for measuring radial displacement in small-diameter tunnel model test, and belongs to the technical field of geotechnical engineering survey.
Background
[0002] To respond to significant demands for energy sources, traffic and underground resources brought by rapid development of national economy, the construction of underground engineering is deepened continuously in company with great challenge.
[0003] With respect to mechanical response and deformation characteristic problems of a rock mass in the underground tunnel excavation process, not only intensive and systematic theoretical research and also laboratory model test study in combination with engineering practice and theories are required. Based on similarity theory, a model test implements operations such as loading, excavating and shoring model test samples with reduced dimensions in order to simulate primary rock stress states, excavation, shoring and the like of a tunnel on site, and obtains stress distribution and deformation displacement characteristics of the test samples by using corresponding monitoring devices to provide reference for engineering practice.
[0004] Fabrication of model test samples is the foundation of laboratory model tests. In recent years, dimensions of the model test samples are diversified as the model test samples are fabricated by diversified measures, and particularly novel technologies such as representative !5 3D printing are more and more applied in the fabrication of the model test samples. A model test sample fabricated by using a 3D printing technology usually has the characteristic of small dimension. A model test sample for model tests of tunnels generally has a centimeter-level hole diameter size (2-4 cm), and as radial displacement of tunnel feature points is a direct response of surrounding rack excavation or overloading and also is one of main bases for predicting, evaluating and controlling stability of surrounding rock of a single tunnel or security of partition walls in multiple tunnels, the radial displacement of tunnel feature points of surrounding rock usually needs to be monitored in relevant tests. For the reason of self sizes, a conventional radial displacement measuring device is barely capable of effectively measuring radial displacement of a small-diameter tunnel in laboratory model tests, and non-contact type surface measurement based on a digital image correlation method principle has limits such as measurement distortion when monitoring internal deformation of small holes, and therefore, higher demands are provided for laboratory small-dimension model displacement measurement.
[0005] At present, research on small hole radial displacement measurement in model tests in China is as follows.
[0006] (1) In the article "GroPIV Image Processing Technology and Application thereof in Rock and Soil Test" in Shanxi Architecture (Volume 43, Issue 4 in 2017), slope model test displacement is measured by means of a non-contact type measurement measure based on particle image velocimetry principle; however, because of the phenomenon that surface layers are liable to peel from inner sides in loading testing of tunnel models, the non-contact type measurement measure based on particle image velocimetry can only measure surface displacement, and can cause great deviation when applied in measurement on internal displacement of small-diameter tunnels, resulting in measurement result distortion.
[0007] (2) A Chinese patent application, with a publication number CN108981535A, published on December 11, 2018, has the invention name of "Contact Displacement Measuring Method and Measuring Device". Because of too large structure and size, the device is not applicable to radial displacement measurement on small-diameter tunnels, and is barely applicable to measurement demands for small holes having different diameters.
[0008] (3) A Chinese patent application, with an authorized publication number CN102721399B, published on January 28, 2015, has the invention name of "Wall-attached Type Shaft Radial Displacement Micrometer and Measuring Method thereof', and the device is cannot implement contact type measurement on inner walls of small-diameter tunnels and is not applicable to situations of too large deformation in small holes.
[0009] (4) A Chinese patent application, with an authorized publication number CN104501682B, published on November 21, 2017, has the invention name of "Device and !5 Method for Measuring Misalignment Quantity of Bolt Hole", besides the unsuitable size, the device can only acquire relative displacement of a hole wall, but cannot acquire absolute displacement of a specific measuring point of the hole wall.
[0010] Therefore, measurement on radial displacement in small holes in model tests is not well developed, and a device which is well applicable to measurement on displacement of small holes within a certain diameter range and is capable of acquiring radial displacement of a single small hole with great deformation is not available yet. In addition, a conventional mechanical method such as an extensometer can only acquire relative radial displacement of a tunnel wall, and cannot acquire absolute displacement of one specific feature point of a small-diameter tunnel.
Summary
[0011] With respect to the above problems, an objective of the present disclosure is to provide a simple and accurate contact type measuring device equipped with accessories with corresponding sizes, for measuring radial displacement of small-diameter tunnels in model tests.
[0012] To achieve the objective, the present disclosure is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0014] a magnetic base, a radial displacement meter and a static strain indicator, wherein the radial displacement meter includes a round connecting rod, a cylindrical base and elastic measuring heads; each elastic measuring head includes an annular steel seat, a spring steel piece and a measuring head; four U-shaped grooves in annularly symmetric distribution are equipped in one end of the cylindrical base; stainless steel semicircular protractors are symmetrically arranged on inner walls of two sides of each U-shaped groove; the annular steel seat and the stainless steel semicircular protractors on the two sides of each U-shaped groove of the cylindrical base are connected through a screw rod; one end of the spring steel piece is fixedly connected with the annular steel seat; a strain gauge is adhered to the spring steel piece; the strain gauge is positioned on one side of the fixed connecting end; the measuring head is arranged at a free end of the spring steel piece and is in threaded connection with the spring steel piece; a positioning hole in an axial direction is formed in the surface center of the other end of the cylindrical base; two groups of through holes in orthogonally symmetric distribution in a radial direction are annularly formed in the cylindrical base; the through holes are positioned at one half of the length of the positioning hole; locking screw rods are arranged in the through holes; one end of the round connecting rod is fixedly sleeved with a stainless steel !5 whole circle protractor; an end of the same side is moveably inserted into the positioning hole; the other end is connected with a clamp on the magnetic base; and the strain gauge is in wire connection with the static strain indicator.
[0015] The U-shaped grooves of the cylindrical base are respectively equipped with rotary positioning rods.
[0016] A thickness of the spring steel piece ranges from 3 mm to 5 mm.
[0017] Due to the adoption of the technical solution, the device is capable of achieving measurement on radial displacement in laboratory small-diameter tunnel model tests, and mainly has the following advantages.
[0018] (1) By adopting a mode that the measuring device is fixed by using the magnetic base, the measuring device can flexibly adapt to a spatial position of a target point to be measured, and has better adaptability to the orientation structure of a model test sample.
[0019] (2) By adopting a mode that the cylindrical base may rotate freely around the round connecting rod and is linked and fixed through the locking screw rods around, measurement on radial absolute displacement of any annular target measuring point of the small-diameter tunnel may be achieved, and meanwhile, stability of the base in the measuring process is ensured.
[0020] (3) By adopting a mode that the detachable elastic measuring heads with different sizes are used and the elastic measuring heads rotate around the U-shaped grooves of the cylindrical base, one same base can adapt to measurement on radial absolute displacement of small holes in the certain diameter range.
[0021] (4) On the basis that the measuring device is fixed by the magnetic base, by adopting a mode that the measuring heads are separated by a cantilever type structure, absolute displacements of the target point measured by the measuring heads may be respectively acquired, and meanwhile, measurement demands for small holes with great deformation can be met.
[0022] (5) By adopting a mode that the measuring heads are regulated and controlled up and down freely, pre-pressing contact on a target measuring point can be achieved, and contact of contact type measurement in the whole process can be ensured.
[0023] The present disclosure provides the measuring device for radial displacement of the small-diameter tunnel in the model test. The device is good at scene adaptability, simple to mount, simple and convenient to operate and capable of conveniently and rapidly achieving measurement on radial displacement of the small-diameter tunnel in the model test.
