Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of hot bin overflow, and particularly relates to a method for analyzing and judging aggregate gradation variation. Background Art

[0002] When the existing mixing equipment produces mixed materials, the aggregates are classified and stacked by particle size, subjected to secondary screening, and metered and stirred according to the designed mix ratio to form mixed materials meeting the design requirements. However, during the batching process of the hot bin and the sand and stone weighing hopper, there is an overflow phenomenon in the hot bin. Since the height of the bin is relatively high, manual workers cannot detect the overflow in time, which will cause waste of aggregates and increase the construction cost. In addition, even if the overflow can be detected in time by sensors, construction workers cannot determine whether the overflow in the hot bin is within the normal fluctuation range, and thus cannot give correct theoretical guidance on whether the aggregate gradation has varied and whether the gradation needs to be adjusted.

[0003] Therefore, a method for analyzing and judging aggregate gradation variation with simple steps and reasonable design is needed to accurately judge the overflow state of each hot bin, so as to facilitate construction workers to take measures to control the accuracy of aggregate gradation. Summary of the Invention

The method has simple steps and reasonable design, can accurately judge the overflow state of each hot bin, and thus facilitates construction workers to take measures to control the accuracy of aggregate gradation.

[0005] To solve the above technical problem, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a method for analyzing and judging aggregate gradation variation, wherein a plurality of hot bins are arranged in the hot bin, and the bottoms of the plurality of hot bins are connected to a sand and stone weighing hopper. The method includes the following steps:

[0006] Step 1: Install an overflow buffer bin on the hot bin:

[0007] Step 101: Denote the plurality of hot bins as the 1st hot bin,..., the ith hot bin,..., the Ith hot bin in ascending order of the aggregate particle size they contain; where i and I are both positive integers, and 1 ≤ i ≤ I; a ith low level sensor and a ith high level sensor are arranged in the ith hot bin;

[0008] Step 102: Set a ith overflow buffer bin on the ith hot bin, and set a ith discharging component at the top of the ith hot bin; wherein, the number of the overflow buffer bins is the same as the number of the hot bins, and the ith discharging component is communicated with the ith overflow buffer bin;

[0009] Step 103: Install the i-th base on the i-th hot material bin, and the i-th weighing sensor is arranged on the i-th base.

[0010] Step 104: Connect the bottom of the i-th overflow buffer bin to the connected sand and gravel weighing hopper through the i-th upper feeding channel and the i-th lower feeding channel; wherein, a soft connection pipe is arranged between the i-th upper feeding channel and the i-th lower feeding channel, and a butterfly valve is arranged on the i-th upper feeding channel.

[0011] Step Two: Detection of the level sensor

[0012] During the operation of the i-th hot material bin and the sand and gravel weighing hopper, the i-th high level sensor detects the level of the i-th hot material bin in real time, and the i-th low level sensor detects the level of the i-th hot material bin in real time.

[0013] Step Three: Obtaining the overflow coefficient

[0014] Step 301: When the i-th high level sensor detects that the level of the i-th hot material bin reaches the high level, the overflow material in the i-th hot material bin is conveyed to the i-th overflow buffer bin through the discharging component.

[0015] Step 302: During the process of conveying the overflow material in the i-th hot material bin to the i-th overflow buffer bin, the i-th weighing sensor detects the weight of the overflow material in the i-th overflow buffer bin in real time until the set overflow judgment time is reached, and the overflow weight Q of the i-th hot material bin within the set overflow judgment time is obtained. i ; wherein, the value of the set overflow judgment time is 10 min

[0016] Step 303: According to the formula Obtain the overflow coefficient λ of the i-th hot material bin i ; wherein, A i represents 10% of the set dosage of the aggregate in the i-th hot material bin.

[0017] Step Four: Judgment of the overflow state of the hot material bin

[0018] Judge that when 0 < λ i ≤ 0.25, the aggregate in the i-th hot material bin fluctuates normally, and the i-th hot material bin continues to work;

[0019] Judge that when 0.25 < λ i ≤ 0.5, the aggregate in the i-th hot material bin fluctuates generally; judge that when 0.5 < λ i ≤ 0.75, the aggregate in the i-th hot material bin fluctuates greatly; judge that when 0.75 < λ iWhen ≤ 1, there is a significant fluctuation in the aggregate weight of the i-th hot aggregate bin, and the controller controls the alarm to sound, indicating that there is an aggregate gradation variation in the i-th hot aggregate bin.

[0020] The above method for analyzing and judging aggregate gradation variation is characterized in that: in step 301, the overflow material in the i-th hot aggregate bin is transported to the i-th overflow buffer bin through the discharging component, and the specific process is as follows:

[0021] Operate the i-th upper screw conveyor to work. The i-th upper screw conveyor transports the aggregate in the i-th hot aggregate bin through the i-th discharging port through the i-th conveying round pipe; the aggregate in the i-th conveying round pipe enters the i-th overflow buffer bin through the i-th upper flexible connecting pipe.

[0022] The above method for analyzing and judging aggregate gradation variation is characterized in that: when it is necessary to take a sample from the i-th overflow buffer bin, the specific process is as follows:

[0023] Operate the i-th lower screw conveyor to work. The i-th lower screw conveyor transports the overflow material in the i-th overflow buffer bin through the i-th material taking port to the outside of the i-th overflow buffer bin through the i-th lower screw conveyor, and then takes a sample through the i-th sampling pipe.

[0024] The above method for analyzing and judging aggregate gradation variation is characterized in that: when it is necessary to compensate the overflow material in the i-th overflow buffer bin to the sand and stone weighing hopper, control the i-th butterfly valve to open, and compensate the overflow material in the i-th overflow buffer bin to the sand and stone weighing hopper through the i-th upper discharging channel and the i-th lower discharging channel.

[0025] The present invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0026] 1. The method of the present invention has simple steps, is easy to implement and operate, and can accurately judge the overflow state of each hot aggregate bin.

[0027] 2. The method of the present invention is easy to operate and has good use effects. An overflow buffer bin is installed on each hot aggregate bin; secondly, the detection of the material level sensor and the acquisition of the overflow coefficient are carried out, and finally, the overflow state of the hot aggregate bin is judged, so as to obtain that the overflow state of the hot aggregate bin is normal fluctuation, general fluctuation, large fluctuation or significant fluctuation.

[0028] 3. When the overflow state of the hot aggregate bin is normal fluctuation, the hot aggregate bin continues to work; when the overflow state of the hot aggregate bin is general fluctuation, large fluctuation or significant fluctuation, the controller controls the alarm to sound, indicating that there is an aggregate gradation variation in the hot aggregate bin, so that it is convenient for construction personnel to take measures to control the aggregate gradation within a reasonable mix ratio curve range and minimize the overflow to the greatest extent.

[0050] Step Two: Detection of the level sensors:
