Grouting is a critical step in the post-tensioned prestressing construction process. Grouting quality directly impacts the prestressing effect of large pipe piles, so it requires special attention. Currently, grouting control mostly relies on manual observation, which is prone to errors and reduces the overall grouting quality. Summary of the Invention

The pressure values are subjected to PID calculation by the PLC controller to obtain the PID (proportional, integral, differential) results which are converted into analog values by the analog output module and output to the corresponding frequency converter; the frequency converter adjusts the output frequency;

[0011] The two screw grouting pumps adjust their rotational speeds according to the output frequencies of their respective corresponding frequency converters.

[0012] Preferably, it also includes: two remote controllers,

Furthermore, on-site staff can perform control operations without having to go to the control room, improving on-site response speed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of the control system of the pipe pile intelligent grouting machine of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] See also Figure 1 The intelligent pipe pile grouting machine control system of the present invention includes: a pair of screw grouting machines, a control device, an HMI module 3, a host computer 4, and an information platform 5.

[0030] The control device collects the grouting pressure of the grouting channel of the screw grouting machine in real time and adjusts the speed of the screw grouting machine according to the grouting pressure control to control the slurry speed and flow rate. The screw grouting machine is used to grout the post-tensioned large pipe pile 100. The HMI module 3 is connected to the control device for human-computer data interaction. The host computer 4 is connected to the control device for inputting grouting control parameters and information, displaying the grouting status, drawing and saving real-time curves of the grouting pressure-time process, and grouting production reports. The information platform 5 realizes online communication with the host computer.

[0031] Specifically, the control device includes a PLC controller 21, two frequency converters 22, two analog acquisition modules 23, two analog output modules (not shown), and two pressure sensors 24. Each screw grouting machine includes a screw grouting pump 11 and a pressure stabilizing tank 12 connected to the outlet of the screw grouting pump 11.

[0032] Among them, the pressure-sustaining tank 12 grouts the post-tensioned large pipe pile 100 through the grouting channel. Each pressure-sustaining tank 12 is separated into two slurry outlets for grouting of the pipe pile channel through pipelines. Two pressure sensors 24 collect the grouting pressure of their respective corresponding grouting channels and transmit it to the analog acquisition module 23 to obtain the corresponding pressure value. The pressure value is PID-operated by the PLC controller 21, and the PID result is converted into an analog output module and output to the corresponding frequency converter 22; the frequency converter 22 adjusts the output frequency; during the process, the slurry is continuously injected into the pipe pile channel through the screw grouting pump 11. When the slurry flows out at the end of the channel, the channel slurry outlet is closed. As the slurry is continuously injected into the channel, the pressure in the grouting channel will slowly increase. The grouting pressure of the grouting channel collected by the pressure sensor 24 is stabilized at the set pressure, and the timing starts. When the pressure holding time reaches the set pressure holding time, the screw grouting pump 11 stops working, and the PLC controller 21 controls the HMI module 3 to generate a grouting data report, and connects with the information platform 5 in real time through the host computer 4, so that the tensioning process and the report data are uploaded to the information platform 5 in real time.

[0033] In addition, two remote controllers 25 are provided, connected to the PLC controller 21. Specifically, the PLC controller 21 receives control signals from the two remote controllers 25 via a remote control receiver and controls the output action and frequency of the corresponding inverter 22 based on the switch signals converted from the control signals. On-site workers can remotely control the grouting equipment, such as starting and stopping, by operating the handheld remote controllers, without having to go to the control room, thus improving on-site response speed.

[0034] In addition, the HMI module 3 includes a main control page unit and a startup page unit. The startup page unit includes a password input box unit for inputting a password and a login switch unit for login control.

[0035] The main control page unit includes:

[0036] Digital input box unit for inputting grouting target pressure and holding time parameters;

[0037] Status display unit for displaying grouting status, variable frequency operation frequency, and real-time pressure value of grouting channel;

[0038] Grouting report unit used to generate and display grouting data reports.

[0039] Human-computer interaction is realized, which facilitates overall control.

[0040] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art may make various changes or modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions should also fall within the scope of the present invention and should be defined by the claims.
