Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a test device and a test method of fractured rock mass collapse and rockfall fracture water inrush. The structures for rock collapse and fracture water inrush can be integrated in one device, and the research on the two disasters is achieved.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

With the rapid development of economy in China, national investment in infrastructure construction increases. More and more water conservancy and hydropower projects and tunnel projects have been carried out in the southwestern China, wherein there are a large number of underground projects. Collapse and water inrush are common forms of disasters in underground projects. Collapse is a process of losing stability and falling of the rock mass of the vault, and water inrush is a phenomenon of a large amount of water burst of water storage structures or underground rivers through water guiding structures. No matter in a construction process or in an operation period, collapse and water inrush of the underground projects will cause huge losses to lives and properties of people. An underground project model test means that the actual project is scaled down to a model according to the similarity ratio and similarity theory, and a corresponding test is performed on a scaled-down model or undistorted model to obtain related data so as to arrive at related conclusions. This has become one of the main research methods in the field of underground projects. The researches on the underground project collapse and rockfall mechanism and the rock fracture water inrush mechanism have important guiding significance for disaster prevention and reduction of the underground projects. The previous model tests have few research on the underground project collapse and rockfall mechanism and the rock fracture water inrush mechanism, or the model test research is only performed on the water inrush of the underground projects in a single aspect, and a test device that can meet the dual experimental demands of collapse and rockfall mechanism research and rock fracture water guiding mechanism research does not exist.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments:

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a novel device for researching fractured rock mass collapse and rockfall and fracture water inrush in tunnels mainly includes (1) a fractured rock mass simulation system: a telescopic rod 5 is installed on an upper steel frame 6 and is connected with an upper die 2, the expansion and retraction of the telescopic rod 5 control the ascending and descending of the upper die 2, when the telescopic rod 5 expands, the upper die 2 descends and cooperates with a lower die to constitute a molding cavity of a simulative rock mass. A material injection port 1 is reserved above the upper die 2. A bottom support 4, the lower die and the upper die 2 constitute a closed chamber. The upper die 2 is arched, and the upper surface of the lower die is also curved, and the formed closed chamber is arched, as there is substantially no dead angle in the closed chamber. Thus, when the material is injected from the material injection port 1, a solidified compact simulative rock mass material can be obtained in the molding cavity.

A cutterhead 3 is movably installed on the lower die through a guide rail, and the guide rail is horizontally arranged. When a liquid similar material is injected, such as hot melt paraffin, into the molding cavity, the simulative rock mass is obtained after the material solidifies, and the cutterhead 3 is slid toward the obtained simulative rock mass along the guide rail to cut the simulative rock mass so as to generate fractures in the rock mass. Since the fracture in the rock mass generally starts from a point and radially extends outward to form a plurality of cracks, in order to better simulate the internal cracks of the rock mass, the cutterhead 3 herein should not be a single blade, and should be a reticular blade assembly formed by assembling a plurality of staggered blades. The blade angles can be adjusted according to the block cutting requirements to generate different groups of structural surfaces.

(2) Surrounding rock pressurization system: an external steel rack 14 acts as a counter-force device, a hydraulic jack 7 is installed in the external steel rack to act on the surface of the formed fractured rock mass 16. The magnitude of the acting force of the hydraulic jack 7 is adjusted through a numerical control system to realize demands of rock mass stress in different environments. The top inner surface of the external steel rack 14 is arched, and a plurality of hydraulic jacks are installed along the top outer surface of the steel rack 14. The model numbers of the hydraulic jacks 7 are preferably the same, so that the lower ends of the hydraulic jacks 7 are all connected with curved plates. The plurality of curved plates are connected end to end to form an arch structure, the end-to-end connection here is not strictly required, and a certain gap may be reserved between adjacent curved plates. When these hydraulic jacks 7 pressurize the obtained simulative rock mass through the curved plates, the pressure distribution can be uniform, and the force in the tunnel can be more accurately simulated.

The simulative water storage structure in the steel rack 14 is composed of a steel frame at the outside. The internal space is arched and is consistent with the shape of the simulative rock mass. Then the water storage structure can be closely fitted with the rock mass.

Two or three horizontal slide rails are paved on the rack bottom plate 9. Actually, two horizontal slide rails can achieve the test purpose, and one more horizontal slide rail can better ensure the uniformity of sliding and avoid deflection in the process of sliding. After each simulative rock mass is formed, the simulative rock mass together with each support, slides along the sliding rail to the corresponding steel rack to bear the pressure applied by the hydraulic jack 7.
