The utility model provides a normal position horizontal push -shear experimental apparatus, includes one side open -ended support, horizontal installation has a jack in the support, the stiff end of jack passes through the counter -force ring and links to each other with the support, and the counter -force intra -annular is equipped with the manometer, the expansion end of jack passes the opening side of the guiding hole setting of backup pad at the support, the backup pad is installed on the support, guiding hole in the backup pad is radially spacing to the jack, clamp plate and experimental soil body contact are installed to the expansion end of jack, and the bilateral symmetry of jack is equipped with flat sword curb plate, the cutting edge surface of flat sword curb plate is to the experimental soil body, the cutting edge surface of flat sword curb plate with the expansion end of jack all with the experimental soil body treat that the cutting plane is perpendicular, flat sword curb plate drives and the action of jack syntropy through the lead screw actuating mechanism who installs on the support. Equitable, the flexible operation of this device simple structure, have again wholly can dismantle, convenient to carry, can reduce the disturbance to the soil sample for the test result more can reflect on -the -spot soil body state.
