[0002] In roller-compacted concrete (RCC) construction for water conservancy and hydropower projects, dump trucks are commonly used for unloading. However, due to the high unloading height of dump trucks, the large drop during the dumping process of three-graded RCC concrete easily leads to aggregate segregation. Aggregate segregation reduces the uniformity of the concrete, affecting its density and strength, and consequently impacting the project quality.

[0003] Currently, common solutions include: 1) reducing the unloading height of dump trucks, but this is difficult to achieve due to vehicle structure and construction conditions; 2) setting up buffer devices at the unloading point, but this increases construction complexity and cost; 3) using manual intervention, such as using tools to disperse aggregates, but this is inefficient and has limited effect.

[0052] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0053] Reference Figure 1-28 A dump truck unloading device for preventing aggregate separation during roller compacted concrete construction includes: a material guiding component mounted at the rear of the truck bed to reduce the unloading height difference; the material guiding component forms an extended unloading guide path to reduce the unloading height difference, thereby effectively solving the problem of aggregate separation in roller compacted concrete during unloading.

[0054] Example 1.

[0055] Reference Figure 1-4 The material guiding component is a swing plate 1 hinged to the rear end of the carriage.

[0056] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, during transportation, when the truck bed is in a horizontal position, the swing plate 1 is in a retracted state, pressing against the outside of the truck bed door and locking the door, without affecting the normal driving and loading of the dump truck.

[0057] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, during the unloading process, when the truck body is in an overturned state, the swing plate 1 swings backward, releasing the lower end of the truck body door and forming an extended material guiding structure; guiding the concrete to the unloading point and further reducing the unloading height difference.

[0058] exist Figure 3 , 4 In the state shown, the swing plate 1 is closer to the ground than the rear end of the carriage; the concrete flows to the unloading point through the swing plate 1, which can significantly avoid aggregate segregation.

[0059] Preferably, the swing plate 1 is assembled via a hinged connection structure of the carriage door claw.

[0060] It is understandable that a door claw mounting structure is provided at the lower end of the rear of the carriage; the swing plate 1 is assembled using the existing door claw hinge connection structure; thus, the swing plate 1 can replace the door claw to limit the locking or unlocking of the carriage door.

[0061] Correspondingly, the lower end of the swing plate 1 is provided with a chain 2 connected to the vehicle frame; and the connection point between the chain and the swing plate 1 is located above the "hinged position between the swing plate 1 and the rear end of the vehicle body" (the vertical height position when retracted).

[0062] During transportation, chain 2 is taut, pulling swing plate 1 to swing inward; during unloading, chain 2 loosens, and swing plate 1 swings outward under the action of gravity.

[0063] like Figure 2 As shown; during transportation, the entire carriage is in a horizontal state; the distance between the rear end of the carriage and the chain fixing point of the rear end of the beam is large, the chain 2 is taut, pulling the swing plate 1 to stick to the carriage door.

[0064] like Figure 4 As shown; during unloading, the front end of the carriage is raised, the distance between the rear end of the carriage and the chain fixing point of the rear end of the beam is reduced, the chain 2 becomes loose and no longer exerts tension on the swing plate 1; at the same time, the swing plate 1 swings backward and opens under the action of gravity, forming a guiding structure for the concrete material, and the concrete slides off its surface, reducing the height difference.

[0065] In the specific structural configuration: a hinge seat 3 is provided on the inner side of the lower end of the swing plate 1 and rotates and assembles with the rear end of the carriage; a pin seat 31 is provided above the hinge seat 3 to connect one end of the chain 2.

[0066] It should be noted that the lower inner side of the swing plate 1 abuts against the lower end of the carriage or the hinged connection structure of the door claw; limiting the rotation amplitude of the swing plate 1 and forming an effective material guiding path.

[0067] During unloading: As the truck body is lifted and tilted, the distance between the rear end of the truck body and the chain fixing point at the rear end of the dump truck beam decreases, the chain 2 pulling the swing plate 1 naturally loosens, the swing plate 1 opens, the unloading path is extended, and the unloading height difference is reduced; when the guide plate is fully opened, the lower extended part of the swing plate 1 presses against the truck body structure to prevent the swing plate 1 from opening too much and losing its guiding function.

[0068] After unloading: As the truck bed gradually returns to a horizontal position, the distance between the rear end of the truck bed and the chain fixing point at the rear end of the dump truck beam increases, and the chain 2 pulling the swing plate 1 naturally tightens, pulling up the swing plate 1 and locking the truck bed door.

[0069] Furthermore, reinforcing ribs are provided on the rear side of the swing plate 1 to prevent the guide plate from deforming and being damaged.

[0070] Additionally, the swing plate 1 can also be directly welded to the car door claw; the swing plate 1 and the door claw are integrated into a single structure and installed at the original car door claw location. In this case, attention needs to be paid to the fit between the swing plate 1 and the car door; preferably, a door claw locking position is formed by cutting at the corresponding position of the swing plate 1 and the door claw; then, the swing plate 1 is welded to the door claw, with the front end of the swing plate 1 and the door claw structure on the same surface, and attached to the car door.

[0071] Furthermore, such as Figure 13-17 As shown;

[0072] The swing plate 1 is provided with self-adjusting retaining edges 4 near both ends.

[0073] This creates barriers on both sides, reducing the outflow of concrete from the sides.

[0074] Preferably, the stop 4 is triangular; the stop 4 is assembled with the swing plate 1 near the top by a pin; correspondingly, the swing plate 1 has an elongated groove through which the swing plate 1 swings.

[0075] During transportation, the retaining edge 4 is subjected to pressure from the carriage door, causing its lower end to swing backward without affecting the locking mechanism of the swing plate 1 to the carriage door. During unloading, the swing plate 1 swings downward as a whole; due to the influence of gravity, the retaining edge 4 will swing downward; in order to overcome this state, a force-applying structure for the retaining edge 4 is provided accordingly.

[0076] Preferably, a torsion spring, spring steel bar, or similar structure is provided at the assembly position of the retaining flange 4 to apply an inward swinging force to the retaining flange 4; during unloading, the retaining flange 4 is pushed to form... Figure 16 The state shown.

[0077] Understandably, a limiting structure is also required; for example, a protruding structure is provided at the lower outer end of the stop 4; the protruding structure is larger than the width of the long strip groove on the swing plate 1, so as to limit the swing amplitude under the applied force.

[0078] In some other embodiments, unlike the aforementioned state, the swing plate 1 is provided with inner folding blocks 11 at both ends to form side blocks; at the same time, the swing plate 1 and the inner folding blocks 11 form a chute to ensure that the aggregate is not excessively dispersed during unloading, and further prevent segregation.

[0079] like Figure 18 As shown; inner folding blocks 11 are hinged at both ends of the swing plate 1; at the same time, torsion springs, spring steel bars and other structures are set to apply an inward folding force to the inner folding blocks 11; and the angle between the inner folding blocks 11 and the swing plate 1 is controlled to be greater than 90 degrees.

[0080] During unloading, the inner folding blocks 11 on both sides form a retaining edge; when the swing plate 1 is retracted, the inner folding blocks 11 swing outward under the pressure of the car door, without affecting the lock of the swing plate 1 on the car door.

[0081] When doing homework:

[0082] 1) Install a swing plate at the rear of the dump truck bed;

[0083] 2) After the dump truck is loaded, it drives to the unloading point; as the truck bed is raised and tilted, the swing plate opens;

[0084] 3) Start unloading. The concrete flows to the unloading point through the swing plate to avoid aggregate segregation caused by excessive height difference;

[0085] 4) After unloading is completed, as the truck bed gradually returns to a horizontal state, the swing plate is pulled up, locking the truck bed door, and the dump truck drives away from the unloading point.

[0086] Example 2.

[0087] like Figure 5-8 As shown in 19-20, the difference from the aforementioned embodiments is:

[0088] The material guiding assembly is: a material guiding plate 5 that is installed at the rear of the carriage and extends rearward.

[0089] Thus, the outer edge with a fixed shape is directly formed by the guide plate 5; such as Figure 8 As shown, the guide plate 5 guides the concrete material to fall, reducing its height.

[0090] It should be noted that the length of the guide plate 5 should be reasonably controlled; while effectively reducing the drop height, it should not cause excessive changes to the vehicle body; preferably, the guide plate 5 extends 500mm beyond the rear of the vehicle.

[0091] Specifically, the guide plate 5 includes a panel 51 and a frame supporting the panel 51, which has reliable strength. Meanwhile, multiple connecting rods 52 are provided on each side of the guide plate 5 for assembly and connection with the carriage.

[0092] Preferably, the connecting rod 52 is installed and fixed to the carriage by welding or bolting.

[0093] It should be noted that the front end of the guide plate 5 fits against the rear of the carriage to prevent material leakage; at the same time, the front end of the guide plate 5 has a notch to avoid the carriage door claws, ensuring that the door claws can open smoothly.

[0094] Furthermore, baffles 53 are provided on both sides of the guide plate 5.

[0095] During unloading, the guide plate 5 and the baffle 53 form a chute to ensure that the aggregate is not excessively dispersed during unloading, and further prevent segregation.

[0096] Before unloading: The guide plate 5 is installed at the rear of the dump truck bed, which does not affect the normal driving and loading of the dump truck; due to the extension, the driver needs to pay more attention to driving safety during the driving process.

[0097] During unloading: the guide plate 5 extends the concrete discharge path, effectively reducing the concrete discharge height difference; the guide plate 5 and the baffle 53 form a chute. After the dump truck body is lifted, the truck body door is opened, and the concrete falls down the chute to the designated unloading point.

[0098] When doing homework:

[0099] 1) Install the material guiding assembly at the rear of the dump truck's cargo box;

[0100] 2) After the dump truck finishes loading, it drives to the unloading point. As the truck bed is lifted and tilted, the truck bed door opens and unloading begins. The concrete flows to the unloading point through the material guiding component to avoid aggregate segregation caused by excessive height difference or excessive discharge speed.

[0101] 3) After unloading is completed, as the truck bed gradually returns to a horizontal position, the doors close and the dump truck drives away from the unloading point.

[0102] Example 3.

[0103] like Figure 9-12 As shown in Figures 21-22, the difference from the previous embodiment is that the tail end of the guide plate 5 is provided with a pick-up bar 54.

[0104] Preferably, the height of the sill 54 is set to 50~70mm.

[0105] Further preferred, the height of the sill 54 is set to 60mm.

[0106] By forming a 60mm high sill at the tail end of the guide plate 5, a buffer is formed during unloading, which can reduce the concrete discharge speed and further prevent segregation.

[0107] During unloading: The sill 54 at the end of the guide plate 5 effectively reduces the falling speed of concrete and prevents aggregate segregation caused by the impact force from excessive falling speed.

[0108] Example 4.

[0109] like Figure 23-26 As shown, unlike the previous embodiment, the lower end of the guide plate 5 is slidably provided with an extension plate 6.

[0110] The extension plate 6 has a first form that is housed at the lower end of the guide plate 5, and a second form that is slid outward to form an extension.

[0111] During transportation, extension panel 6 is retracted into the interior; as... Figure 23 As shown, the overall length is not large.

[0112] During the unloading process, the extension plate 6 is moved outward to increase the guide surface and further reduce the height difference.

[0113] It should be noted that the extension plate 6 can be moved manually or equipped with a drive component (such as an electric telescopic rod, lead screw, etc.).

[0114] Preferably, select manual mode; such as Figure 25 , 26 As shown, the lower end of the extension plate 6 is fixedly provided with a slide rod 61 that extends through to the lower end of the guide plate 5; the lower end of the guide plate 5 is provided with a matching slide rail 62 (extending through to the lower end of the frame of the support panel 51); at the same time, the lower section of the slide rod 61 is threaded and fitted with a nut for locking or adjusting the position of the extension plate 6.

[0115] Example 5.

[0116] like Figure 27-28 As shown; similar to the scheme in Embodiment 4, in this embodiment, an extension plate 6 is slidably provided on the rear side of the swing plate 1.

[0117] Specifically, a guide and limiting structure is set on the rear side of the swing plate 1 in conjunction with the extension plate 6, and the extension plate 6 slides through the guide structure. During transportation, the extension plate 6 automatically retracts under the action of gravity; during unloading, the swing plate 1 is in an inclined state, and the extension plate 6 slides out under the action of gravity; it is understandable that the limiting mechanism is set to prevent excessive sliding out.

[0118] For example, multiple guide openings are made on the extension plate 6; a limiting rod is fixedly installed on the rear side of the swing plate 1 near the top; for example Figure 27 As shown, during transport, the extension plate 6 slides downwards; as Figure 28 As shown, during unloading, the extension plate 6 slides outward and is blocked by the limit rod to maintain a suitable extension length.

[0119] Preferably, the limiting rod is a screw and a nut is installed; the nut can be controlled to lock, so that the extension plate 6 is in a non-slip locked state.

[0120] A method for preventing aggregate segregation during dump truck unloading in roller compacted concrete construction, based on the aforementioned apparatus, includes the following steps;

[0121] S1. Install a material guiding assembly at the rear of the carriage;

[0122] S2. During the unloading process, the unloading height difference of concrete is reduced by the material guiding component to avoid aggregate segregation caused by excessive height difference.

[0123] In this invention, by adding a material guiding component to the rear of the dump truck bed, the material discharge path is extended, the discharge height difference is reduced, and aggregate segregation is avoided; the uniformity and construction quality of roller-compacted concrete are improved; the construction process is simplified, and the construction cost is reduced.

[0124] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0125] 1) Effectively prevents aggregate segregation: By installing this device, the discharge height difference is reduced, which significantly reduces the aggregate segregation phenomenon in three-grade roller-compacted concrete and improves the uniformity of concrete.

[0126] 2) Improved construction quality: It avoided the impact of aggregate segregation on the density and strength of roller-compacted concrete, thus ensuring the quality of the project;

[0127] 3) Easy to operate: The device has a simple structure and is easy to operate, requiring no additional manual intervention;

[0128] 4) Wide range of applications: Applicable to various water conservancy and hydropower engineering roller-compacted concrete construction scenarios, and has broad application value;
