Description

  The present invention provides an expansion head connected to the lower end of the earth auger, and an unhardened soil sample immediately after filling the rooting liquid into the expansion rooting bulb in pile construction, The present invention relates to a soil sampling device and a sampling method for pinpoint sampling at (position to be collected).

  In the embedded pile method, the bearing capacity is generally expressed by constructing an expanded root-clamping bulb and installing a pile tip on the expanded root-clamping bulb to achieve integration.

  Recent development of high bearing capacity pile method is remarkable, and in order to obtain particularly large bearing capacity, it is important to mechanically expand larger expanded root bulbs and build higher quality expanded root bulbs It has become. Therefore, it is necessary to collect a sample from the enlarged root bulb and confirm the strength, quality, uniformity and the like.

  However, the enlarged root bulb is deep underground (for example, about 10 to 80 m), and it is difficult to collect a sample from an arbitrary location because the excavation hole is expanded in the lateral direction and built. Since it was difficult to collect only the sample collected without pinholes, impurities, etc. in other locations, various locations of the enlarged root bulb (especially near the side wall of the borehole) ), It is necessary to have an effective method for directly confirming whether or not a product of a predetermined strength and quality has been built.

  That is, a predetermined amount of a root hardening liquid (for example, cement milk having a water-cement ratio of about 50 to 100%) used for the enlarged root bulb is injected into the bulb portion that has been enlarged and drilled through a drill rod or a bit portion. . In that case, a part of the soil in the original position and the root-setting liquid are stirred and mixed to develop strength as an expanded root-setting bulb, but it must be clarified whether or not this satisfies the required strength.

  At present, for example, cement milk before mixing as a rooting liquid obtained by kneading cement and water at the plant is collected to prepare a specimen for strength confirmation, and a compressive strength test is conducted for convenience. In many cases, the strength is confirmed.

However, there are some patented technologies that have solved some of the above problems. For example, in Patent Document 1 below, when the openable openable and expanding wing provided at the lower end portion of the auger screw is opened, the earth collection port is opened, and when the blade is closed, the earth and sand is rotated by the shutter. A sample collection method such as earth and sand characterized by collecting the sample earth and sand in the excavation hole using a pipe for collecting earth and sand whose sampling port is closed; A pipe that is horizontally attached to the expansion wing and has a sediment collection port at one end, and a shutter provided at a position corresponding to the sediment collection port of the pipe at the lower end of the auger screw; When the expansion wing is closed, the sediment collection port of the pipe is closed, and when the blade is opened, the sediment collection port is opened away from the shutter. Sampling apparatus is shown in gravel or the like, characterized in that the.
JP 2006-241828 A

  One end of the pipe for collecting earth and sand is opened as an earth and sand collecting port closed by a shutter, and the other end is closed with a mesh (wire net) so as to draw only water and leave the earth and sand. It is mounted in the direction of rotation.

  When the expansion wing opens, the sediment collection port of the pipe moves from the front of the shutter together with the expansion wing, and the sediment collection port of the pipe opens.

  According to this method and apparatus, when the enlarged wing is opened and a bottomed bulb larger than the pile diameter is constructed, the earth and sand sampling port is opened, and when the auger screw rotates, the earth and sand excavated by the enlarged wing becomes the auger screw. It is collected in a pipe that rotates together. When excavation with the expansion wing is completed and the expansion wing is closed, the earth and sand sampling port is also closed with the shutter. After the earth and sand collection port is closed, even if the auger screw is pulled up, the earth and sand in the pipe overflows during the pulling up. Or other sediment does not enter the pipe.

Patent Document 2 below is similar to Patent Document 1 described above, and is provided in an enlarged head that connects a pipe for collecting earth and sand to the lower end of the earth auger. As shown in FIGS. A sampling device 10 having a double-pipe structure comprising an inner tube 12 that is housed and has a valved window hole 15 is attached to the shaft portion 2 (main body portion) of the diameter-expanded blade 3 that is expanded and contracted by the cylinder mechanism 6 (cylinder 6a and rod 6b). Attached.

  The distal end portion of the inner tube 12 of the sampling device 10 is attached to the rod portion of the diameter-expanded blade 3, and the inner tube 12 protrudes from the outer tube 11 in conjunction with the diameter-expanded blade, and the window hole 15 is exposed. .

  Thus, by rotating the magnifying head in a predetermined direction, the valve 16 of the window hole is pushed by the pressure of the collected sample, and the sample is taken into the inner tube 12. The inner tube 12 is accommodated in the outer tube 11 by reducing the diameter of the diameter-expanded blade 3, and the collected sample is collected in a sealed state.

  The diameter-expanded blade 3 is provided with a pair capable of expanding and contracting in opposite directions with the shaft portion 2 interposed therebetween, and has a drilling blade 4 provided with a plurality of tip bits 4a at the lower end, and pushes the excavated sediment upward.

The shaft portion 2 is provided with a pipe connected to a rod pipe such as an earth auger so that the drilling fluid and the rooting fluid can be discharged from the discharge port at the lower end (not shown).

  The opposite end of the sampling device 10 serves as an outlet for the collected soil sample and has a lid 14.

  When the diameter-expanded blade 3 is expanded by hydraulic pressure, the inner tube 12 of the sampling device 10 protrudes from the outer tube 11 in conjunction with the extension of the rod 6b. In this state, the expansion head 1 is rotated in the forward direction to perform the expansion excavation, but during that time, the window hole of the inner pipe 12 is closed by the valve, so that the excavated sediment in the excavation hole does not flow into the inner pipe 12. .

  Collection of soil samples is performed in the following steps. As shown in FIG. 11, using a drilling machine such as an earth auger 102, with the diameter expansion blade 3 of the expansion head 1 attached to the tip closed, the rod 105 is rotated forward to reach a predetermined depth. 101 is excavated.
