[0022] Please see Figure 1-6 One embodiment provided by this utility model:

[0023] An epoxy mortar application device for repairing cracks in a concrete dam includes a dam body 1. A work frame 2 is mounted on the surface of the dam body 1. A fixing mechanism is mounted on the surface of the work frame 2, including a support pipe 21 fixedly connected to the surface of the work frame 2. A vacuum suction cup 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support pipe 21, adhering to the surface of the dam body 1. A connecting pipe 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the support pipe 21. An extraction pipe 24 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting pipe 23. A vent pipe 26 is fixedly connected to the surface of the extraction pipe 24, and a vent valve 27 is mounted on the surface of the vent pipe 26. A vacuum pump 25 is fixedly connected to the surface of the work frame 2, with its suction end connected to the top of the extraction pipe 24. An injection mechanism is mounted on the surface of the work frame 2, including a first motor 3 fixedly connected to the surface of the work frame 2. A first lead screw 31 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 3, and a directional nut 32 is threaded onto the surface of the first lead screw 31. A raw material box 33 is fixedly connected to the surface of the mother 32. A feeding port 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the raw material box 33. A feeding port 34 is fixedly connected to the surface of the raw material box 33. A compression cylinder 35 is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the feeding port 34. A smoothing mechanism is provided on the surface of the raw material box 33. The smoothing mechanism includes a second motor 4, which is fixedly connected to the surface of the raw material box 33. A second lead screw 41 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor 4. A movable [device] is threaded onto the surface of the second lead screw 41. A lifting rod 43 is fixedly connected to the surface of the movable rod 42, and a trowel 44 is fixedly connected to the surface of the lifting rod 43. The epoxy mortar construction device is fixed to the inclined surface of the dam body 1 by a fixing device. Then, the epoxy mortar is injected into the cracks on the inclined surface of the dam body 1 by an injection mechanism. Finally, the epoxy mortar is smoothed on the inclined surface of the dam body 1 by a smoothing mechanism, thereby completing the construction of epoxy mortar on the dam body 1. This construction method saves time and labor, and the coating is uniform, ensuring the construction quality of epoxy mortar.

[0024] Furthermore, the vacuum suction cup 22 is provided with four sets. The working frame 2 is supported by the four sets of support pipes 21 through the support pipes 21. The connecting pipe 23 is in the shape of "U". The vacuum suction cup 22 supports the entire working frame 2 on the dam body 1 through the support pipes 21, thereby ensuring the stability of the working frame 2 on the slope of the dam body 1. The support pipes 21 and the connecting pipes 23 are made of steel. The connecting pipes 23 are on both sides of the working frame 2 for easy hand-holding by construction personnel.

[0025] Furthermore, the vacuum suction cup 22 forms a sealed space on the slope of the dam body 1. The vacuum pump 25 extracts air between the vacuum suction cup 22 and the dam body 1 through the air extraction pipe 24, the connecting pipe 23, and the support pipe 21, so that the vacuum suction cup 22 can be firmly attached to the slope of the dam body 1. The vacuum pump 25 is existing technology and can extract air, so that the vacuum suction cup 22 forms a vacuum adsorption state on the dam body 1. The air release valve 27 releases the air inside the air extraction pipe 24 through the air release pipe 26, so that the vacuum suction cup 22 is no longer attached to the dam body 1, making it convenient to remove the work frame 2. The position of the work frame 2 on the dam body 1 can be adjusted according to the position of the crack on the slope of the dam body 1. After a section of epoxy mortar is applied, the position of the work frame 2 on the dam body 1 can be quickly adjusted through the height mechanism. Construction personnel can change the position of the work frame 2 on the slope of the dam body 1 using hoisting equipment. This solution greatly improves the quality and efficiency of the application compared to manual application.

[0026] Furthermore, the first motor 3 drives the first lead screw 31 to rotate through the output shaft. The first lead screw 31 drives the directional nut 32 to slide on the surface of the working frame 2 through rotation. The directional nut 32 drives the raw material box 33 to slide on the surface of the working frame 2. During the movement, the raw material box 33 outputs epoxy putty onto the surface of cement mortar through the feed port 34, thereby forming a protective layer.

[0027] Furthermore, the extrusion cylinder 35 drives the extrusion plate 36 to rise and fall inside the raw material box 33 via the piston rod. The raw material box 33 is filled with epoxy putty. The epoxy putty inside the raw material box 33 is output onto the dam body 1 through the feed port 34. An injection pipe is provided on the top of the raw material box 33 for adding epoxy putty, and a solenoid valve is provided on the feed port 34 to prevent epoxy putty from leaking out randomly at the feed port 34.

[0028] Furthermore, the second motor 4 drives the second lead screw 41 to rotate through the output shaft. The surface of the moving rod 42 is provided with a threaded hole. The second lead screw 41 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole of the moving rod 42. The second lead screw 41 drives the moving rod 42 to rise and fall on the surface of the raw material box 33 by rotation. Since the inclined surfaces of the working frame 2 and the dam body 1 are parallel to each other, the moving rod 42 rises and falls vertically along the inclined surface of the dam body 1.

[0029] Furthermore, the moving rod 42 drives the smearing plate 44 to rise and fall on one side of the raw material box 33 via the lifting rod 43. The smearing plate 44 is composed of a flat plate and an inclined plate. The inclined plate prevents the epoxy mortar from moving onto the surface of the smearing plate 44. The smearing plate 44 moves synchronously with the raw material box 33. During the movement, the smearing plate 44 smooths the epoxy mortar on the inclined surface of the dam body 1.

[0030] Working principle: Construction personnel are hoisted to the inclined surface of dam body 1, and vacuum suction cups 22 are placed on both sides of the cracks on the inclined surface of dam body 1, so that the work frame 2 is directly above the cracks. Vacuum pump 25 extracts air between vacuum suction cups 22 and the inclined surface of dam body 1 through air extraction pipe 24, connecting pipe 23 and support pipe 21. Vacuum suction cups 22 adhere to the inclined surface of dam body 1, supporting the work frame 2. At this time, extrusion cylinder 35 drives extrusion plate 36 to descend through piston rod. Extrusion plate 36 pushes epoxy resin inside raw material box 33 through the conveyor... The material outlet 34 outputs cement mortar onto the cracks in the dam body 1, and the output shaft of the first motor 3 drives the first lead screw 31 to rotate. The first lead screw 31 drives the directional nut 32 to slide on the surface of the work frame 2 through rotation. The directional nut 32 drives the material box 33 to slide, so that the material outlet 34 can evenly output epoxy mortar along the cracks. The trowel 44 on one side of the material box 33 smooths the epoxy mortar on the slope of the dam body 1, ensuring both the construction efficiency and the construction quality of the epoxy mortar.

[0031] The output shaft of the second motor 4 drives the second lead screw 41 to rotate. The rotation of the second lead screw 41 drives the moving rod 42 to rise and fall. The moving rod 42 drives the sizing plate 44 to rise and fall through the lifting rod 43. The sizing plate 44 changes the sizing height on the slope of the dam body 1 by rising and falling. By adjusting the sizing height of the epoxy mortar, the thickness of the protective layer can be made uniform, and the service life of the repaired structure can be extended.
