Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of building engineering technology, specifically to a column support robot and a spray curing device. Background Technology
[0002] With the country's continuous investment in infrastructure, the construction of urban viaducts and rural and mountainous road bridges has been developing, and the number of bridges and high-rise buildings is constantly increasing.
[0003] Piers play a crucial supporting role, and their quality is structurally vital. Concrete strength is a key indicator of pier quality. Concrete strength is directly related to not only raw materials and construction techniques but also to curing. If the concrete is left in a dry environment after pouring, rapid evaporation of moisture leads to dehydration, resulting in flaky peeling, sanding, or powdery flaking on the surface. Furthermore, premature evaporation before the concrete has sufficient strength can cause significant shrinkage deformation, leading to drying shrinkage cracks. Insufficient hydration within the concrete due to water loss results in a loosened crystal structure and reduced strength.
[0004] Therefore, after the concrete is poured, the pier should be covered and sprayed for curing and reinforcement as soon as possible. However, most existing spraying methods use spray trucks to spray directly, but this method can only be used for piers with relatively low height. For piers over 50 meters high and for construction sites with uneven bottoms, ordinary spray trucks cannot spray the entire pier.
[0005] Therefore, the existing methods for spray curing piers have the aforementioned technical problems that affect the overall construction quality of the piers. It is evident that there is an urgent need to provide a method that can complete the overall spray curing of high piers and piers in special terrains, which is a problem that needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the technical problem of low reliability in existing methods for spraying and curing piers, the present invention aims to provide a pier robot equipped with a spraying and curing device, which can perform overall spraying and curing of high piers and piers in special terrains, thereby improving the overall construction quality of piers.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention aims to provide a pier robot, which is an integrated ring robot formed by connecting several symmetrically arranged sets of power climbing components through connectors. It is fitted onto a pier, and the multiple sets of power climbing components synchronously climb and descend along the pier.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention aims to provide a spraying maintenance device mounted on the aforementioned pier robot, enabling it to synchronously follow the pier robot as it climbs and descends along the pier. The spraying maintenance device includes a spraying support system and a spraying pipeline system. The spraying support system is distributed circumferentially along the robot, and the spraying pipeline system is installed on the spraying support system to perform spraying maintenance on the pier.
[0009] Furthermore, the spray support system includes a support base and a swing assembly. The support base is mounted on the body of the pier robot, and the swing assembly is mounted on the support base and can move relative to the pier.
[0010] Furthermore, the swing assembly includes a support swing arm, a swing arm folding support frame, and a spring pin. The lower end of the support swing arm is hinged to one end of the folding support frame through a connecting assembly. The support swing arm can rotate relative to the folding support frame along the connecting assembly. The other end of the folding support frame is fixed to the support seat by a spring pin, thus fixing the swing angle of the support swing arm.
[0011] Furthermore, the spray pipeline system is equipped with multiple sets of pipeline joints corresponding to the number of spray curing devices. Each pipeline joint includes a first connecting component and a spray pipeline. The first connecting component is fixed to the upper end of the swing arm and is a tee connector. The first and second ends of the connector are quickly connected to the adjacent spray pipelines. The spray pipelines and the adjacent spray pipelines are connected in sequence to form a ring. The third end of the connector is connected to a nozzle, which sprays the pier column for curing.
[0012] Furthermore, at least one of the multiple sets of pipe joints is configured as a four-way joint, three ends of which have the same connection structure as the first connecting component, and the fourth end is provided with a delivery connecting pipe. The bottom of the delivery connecting pipe is connected to the water pump, and the maintenance liquid is delivered to all the spray pipes through the delivery connecting pipe.
[0013] Furthermore, the delivery connection pipe is equipped with a flow control system, which precisely regulates the spray dosage.
[0014] Furthermore, the spraying maintenance device is also equipped with a sealing device, which is set along the periphery of the pier robot and covers the pier robot.
[0015] Furthermore, the sealing device includes a sealing cover and a sealing cover support frame;
[0016] The sealing cover support frame is set at each spraying device. One end of the frame is set at the upper end of the pier robot connector, and the other end is inclined to the pier and is fitted with rollers to fit tightly against the pier.
[0017] The sealing cover is circumferentially surrounding the pier robot. The upper end of the sealing cover is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sealing cover support frame, and the lower end is tightened and fixed to the outside of the robot host by setting an elastic band.
[0018] The pier robot and spray curing device provided by the present invention can complete the overall spray curing of high piers and piers in special terrain by mounting the circumferential spraying system formed by the present solution on the pier robot, thereby improving the overall construction quality of the pier.

[0030] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below with reference to specific illustrations.
[0031] For existing piers exceeding 50 meters in height and construction sites with uneven pier bases, ordinary spray trucks cannot achieve overall spraying of the piers. Based on the existing technical problems in spraying and maintaining piers, the pier robot and spraying and maintenance device provided by this invention, by equipping the pier robot with a spraying system, can complete the overall spraying and maintenance of high piers and piers in special terrains, thereby improving the overall construction quality of piers.
[0032] The pier robot and spray curing device provided by this invention are described in [reference needed]. Figure 1 It includes a column support robot 100 and a spray maintenance device 200 mounted on the column support robot 100.
[0033] See Figure 2 The pier robot 100 is preferably designed in an octagonal shape according to the shape of the pier. It is equipped with eight sets of power climbing components 110, which are connected together by connectors 120. It can be fitted onto the pier 400, and the eight sets of power climbing components 110 can climb and descend synchronously along the pier 400.
[0034] This solution does not limit the structural composition of the power climbing component 110. As an example, it may include a drive motor and climbing wheels. The drive motor drives the climbing wheels, and the drive motor drives the climbing wheels to move the machine body up or down along the pier.
[0035] A spray curing device 200 is installed in the area corresponding to each power climbing component 110 of the pier robot 100. The spray curing device 200 is installed in the area of the corresponding power climbing component 110 of the pier robot 100 to form a ring-shaped spraying system. It is installed on the pier robot 100 and can achieve comprehensive spraying of piers of different types and heights. The spray curing device 200 includes a ring-shaped spraying support system 210 and a spraying pipeline system 220.
[0036] Sprinkler support system 210 is a mounting bracket for the sprinkler system, see [link / reference] Figure 3 It includes a support base 211 and a swing assembly disposed on the support base 211. The support base 211 is disposed on the body of the pier robot 100, and the swing assembly is disposed on the support base 211 and can move relative to the pier 400.
[0037] The swing assembly includes a support swing arm 212, a swing arm folding support frame 213, and a spring pin 214. The lower end of the support swing arm 212 is hinged to one end of the folding support frame 213 via a connecting assembly. The support swing arm 212 can rotate relative to the folding support frame 213 along the connecting assembly, thereby enabling the support swing arm 212 to move relative to the pier robot 100, and thus controlling the angle of the spraying maintenance device so that it can accurately spray the area on the pier 400 that needs maintenance.
[0038] The other end of the folding support frame 213 is fixed to the support base 211 by a spring pin 214, thus fixing the swing angle of the support arm 212. (See also...) Figures 4-5 At the end of the test, the lower end spring pin 214 of the folding support arm 212 can be pulled out from the positioning hole of the support base, thereby folding the support arm 212 inward and reducing the size of the equipment.
[0039] The spray pipeline system 220 is used to realize the spraying of the spray system. The corresponding spray curing device is provided with multiple sets of pipeline joints, each of which includes a first connecting component 221 and a spray pipeline 222.
[0040] The first connecting component 221 is fixed on the upper end of the supporting swing arm 212. The first connecting component 221 preferably adopts a three-way connector 221. The first and second ends on both sides are quickly connected to the adjacent spray pipes 222 respectively. The spray pipes 222 and the adjacent spray pipes are connected in sequence to form a ring. The third end of the connector is connected to the nozzle 225 through a hose, and the nozzle 225 sprays the column 400 for maintenance.
[0041] In at least one of the aforementioned sets of pipe joints, the connecting component is set as a four-way connector 223. Three ends of the four-way connector 223 are the same as the first connecting component, and the fourth end is provided with a delivery connecting pipe 224. The bottom of the delivery connecting pipe 224 is connected to a water pump, and the curing liquid is delivered upward through the water pump. The curing liquid is delivered to the adjacent spray pipe 222 through the four-way connector 223, and sprayed to cure the pier column 400 through the upper-connected nozzle 225.
[0042] Furthermore, the delivery connection pipe 224 is equipped with a flow control system 226, which can precisely adjust the spray dosage through the control system, save the cost of spray curing agent, and achieve better curing effect.
[0043] See Figure 6 The pier robot and spray maintenance device provided in this solution are also equipped with a sealing device 300, which is installed around the pier robot 100 and covers it. This sealing device provides waterproofing during the pier robot 100's climbing process, thereby protecting the pier robot 100's wiring and structure, and ensuring its normal operation. See also... Figure 7The sealing device 300 includes a sealing cover 310 and a sealing cover support frame 320.
[0044] The sealing cover support frame 320 is set at each spray curing device 200. One end of the support frame is set at the upper end of the connecting piece of the pier robot 100, and the other end is inclined to the pier 400 and is fitted with a roller 350 to fit tightly against the pier 400.
[0045] The sealing cover 310 is a rectangular waterproof fabric that surrounds the pier robot 100. The upper end of the sealing cover 310 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sealing cover support frame 320 via an upper elastic band 330, and the lower end is tautly fixed to the outside of the pier robot 100 via a lower elastic band 340. This ensures that the robot can move along the pier 400 via rollers 350 when the robot's spraying system is operating, preventing the sealing cover support frame 320 from scratching the surface of the pier 400 and causing damage to the sealing cover 310. Furthermore, the sealing cover 310 provides a certain degree of waterproofing, preventing damage to the robot's structure and electrical wiring.
[0046] Secondly, the sealing cover support frame 320 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the climbing connector of the column robot 100, which serves to support the sealing cover 310 and prevent the sealing cover 310 from sticking to the robot 100, so as to prevent the sealing cover 310 from getting caught in the climbing robot wheel during the movement of the robot 100, causing the machine to malfunction.
[0047] The pier robot and spray curing device described above, by mounting the circumferential spraying system formed by this solution on the pier robot, can climb along the pier to piers over 50 meters high, achieving high-pier spray curing.
[0048] Secondly, the ring-shaped arrangement of the spray system can achieve uniform spraying of the piers, and the spray dosage can be precisely controlled through the control system, saving the cost of spray curing agents and achieving better curing results.
[0049] In addition, the spray system is equipped with a sealing cover, which can play a waterproof role during the climbing process of the pier robot, thereby protecting the safety of the pier robot's circuitry and structure, and ensuring the normal operation of the pier robot.
[0050] Finally, the sprinkler system and the pier robot adopt an integrated and modular design, which can be folded inward when not in use. At the same time, the sprinkler system uses quick-disassembly pipes and joints, and the pipes can be removed and stored when the robot is not in use, thereby reducing the overall size of the equipment and facilitating transportation.
[0051] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed. The scope of protection of this invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
