Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of concrete transporting, in particular to a concrete transporting device. Background Art

[0002] Concrete, abbreviated as concrete, is a general term for engineering composite materials in which aggregates are bonded into a whole by cementitious materials. The term concrete usually refers to cement as the cementitious material, sand and stone as aggregates; and water (which may contain admixtures and additives) in a certain proportion and stirred to obtain cement concrete, also called ordinary concrete, which is widely used in civil engineering.

[0003] Concrete is generally transported directly from the mixing plant to the designated location by cement tank trucks. However, since tank trucks are often large in size, they may face terrain difficulties in some special locations or situations, making it impossible to deliver the concrete directly to the destination. In this case, carts, bucket trucks or pump trucks are required to transport concrete over short distances. Different transportation tools are suitable for different transportation distances and scenarios, but different concrete mix ratios will have different setting times. Therefore, even for short-distance transportation, it is still necessary to consider preventing the concrete from solidifying prematurely.

[0004] After searching, the Chinese invention patent with publication number CN105345929B discloses a transport vehicle for concrete, including a vehicle body and wheels, the wheels are connected to the lower side of the vehicle body, the wheels form an upper cavity that can accommodate concrete, at least two protrusions are provided in the upper cavity, the lower side of the upper cavity is connected to the lower cavity, the wheels are located below the lower cavity, at least two wedge rods passing through the upper cavity are provided in the lower cavity, the wedge rods are slidably connected to the wall of the upper cavity, each wedge rod is fixedly connected to a protrusion, a slide groove is provided below the wedge rod, a push rod is slidably connected to the slide groove, a group of rollers are provided on the push rod, each roller is abutted against a wedge rod, and a cam is abutted against one side of the push rod. In the process of transporting concrete, the application drives the protrusion to reciprocate up and down by the cam to maintain the dynamic state of the concrete, but because the concrete is in a viscous fluid form before solidification, the overall flow effect of the concrete cannot be guaranteed by relying solely on the movement of the protrusion, and it is also impossible to effectively prevent the phenomenon of early solidification of the concrete during the transportation process, so it will cause inconvenience in the transportation of concrete. Summary of the invention

[0013] Furthermore, a cavity is opened on one side of the base near the armrest, and a second circle is opened in the cavity on one side of the base near the armrest.

In this case, the rotation of the connecting rod and the rotation and swing of the mixing blade can assist in the discharge of concrete, and the vibration of the material tank can also prevent the concrete from sticking, so the discharge can be guaranteed to be complete, thereby facilitating the discharge process of concrete after transportation;

[0019] 3. By setting a latch on the side panel, since the tilt adjustment of the material tank will drive the guide rod to move in the guide groove, and the latch can limit the guide rod, the latch can be used to support and fix the material tank after the tilt adjustment, so as to maintain the stability of the material tank during the discharge process.

The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be the only implementation method.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] See attached Figure 1-5 The present application provides a concrete transfer device, comprising a base 1 and a material tank 2, wherein the base 1 is used to move the material tank 2, and the material tank 2 is used to contain concrete. A stirring mechanism is provided inside the material tank 2, and the stirring mechanism is used to maintain the fluidity of the concrete, so that the concrete can be stirred during the transfer process to achieve the effect of preventing early solidification;

[0032] The stirring mechanism includes a swing component, a vibration component and a plurality of connecting rods 16. The swing component includes a plurality of stirring blades 17 rotatably connected to the connecting rods 16. The stirring blades 17 and the connecting rods 16 are both used to stir concrete. A clockwork spring 21 is fixedly connected between the stirring blades 17 and the connecting rods 16. The vibration component includes a plurality of vertical plates 18 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the material tank 2. The vertical plates 18 are arranged on the movement path of the stirring blades 17. That is, when the stirring blades 17 move with the rotation of the connecting rods 16, they will contact and push each other with the vertical plates 18, thereby causing the two to deform. The vertical plates 18 are pushed by the stirring blades 17 to produce shaking, and the stirring blades 17 are pushed by the vertical plates 18 to produce swinging.

[0033] When transporting concrete, the device can be moved to the side of the cement tank truck and the motor 9 can be started. The motor 9 drives the connecting plate 15 to rotate through the rotating shaft 14. The connecting plate 15 drives the mixing blade 17 to rotate through the connecting rod 16. As the connecting rod 16 rotates, the mixing blade 17 will contact and squeeze the vertical plate 18, causing the mixing blade 17 to deflect and the vertical plate 18 to deform. After that, the continued movement of the mixing blade 17 will separate from the vertical plate 18; at this time, the mixing blade 17 will continue to swing under the elastic force of the clockwork spring 21, and the vertical plate 18 will continue to shake due to its own elastic force, thereby causing the material tank 2 to vibrate.

[0034] Preferably, rollers 13 are fixedly connected at the four outer corners of the bottom end of the base 1, and the rollers 13 are universal wheels with built-in brakes, and an armrest 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the base 1, the material tank 2 is arranged above the base 1, and a discharge hopper 11 is fixedly connected to the side of the material tank 2 away from the armrest 8, a discharge port is provided on one side of the discharge hopper 11, and a valve is provided at the discharge port of the discharge hopper 11, and the discharge hopper 11 is hemispherical, a feed port is provided at the top of the material tank 2, and a feed hopper 10 is fixedly connected to the feed port of the material tank 2, and a cover plate is provided on the feed hopper 10.

[0035] Preferably, the top of the base 1 is fixedly connected with support plates 12 on both sides of one end of the material tank 2, and the two support plates 12 are rotatably connected to the material tank 2.

The plate bodies of the two side plates 4 are provided with guide grooves 3, and the guide grooves 3 are arc-shaped. The two side plates 4 are slidably connected with guide rods 5 at the two guide grooves 3, respectively. One end of the two guide rods 5 is fixedly connected with fixed rods 6, and the two fixed rods 6 are fixedly connected to the material tank 2. In the process of adjusting the inclination of the material tank 2, the material tank 2 will drive the guide rods 5 to move in the guide grooves 3 through the fixed rods 6, so the guide grooves 3 can limit the guide rods 5, ensuring that the material tank 2 will deflect along the established route, so that the smoothness and stability of its adjustment process can be maintained.

[0036] Concrete in the cement tank truck can be poured into the material tank 2 from the feed hopper 10 , and then the base 1 can be pushed by the handrail 8 , and the concrete can be transported by the material tank 2 .

[0037] Preferably, a first circular hole is opened in the middle of the side of the material tank 2 away from the discharge hopper 11, and the material tank 2 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 14 at the first circular hole, and a motor 9 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the material tank 2 at the first circular hole. The motor 9 is a reduction motor, so the rotation speed of the connecting rod 16 and the stirring blade 17 can be slowed down to avoid excessive stirring. The output shaft of the motor 9 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 14, and a fixed plate 19 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom end of the material tank 2 near the discharge hopper 11. A connecting shaft 20 is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the fixed plate 19. The ends of the rotating shaft 14 and the connecting shaft 20 that are close to each other are fixedly connected to a connecting plate 15, and the connecting plate 15 can be in the shape of a "one", or a "cross" or a polygonal star.

[0038] Preferably, several connecting rods 16 are fixedly connected at the outer side between the two connecting plates 15, a groove 1701 is opened at the inner top end of the stirring blade 17, and the stirring blade 17 is opened at both sides of the groove 1701 with through holes 1702, the diameter of the through hole 1702 is smaller than the diameter of the groove 1701, the connecting rod 16 is rotatably connected to the stirring blade 17 at the through hole 1702, and the clockwork spring 21 is arranged in the groove 1701.

[0039] After the concrete enters the material tank 2, the rotation of the connecting rod 16 and the movement and swing of the stirring blades 17 can stir the concrete to maintain its fluidity; and the vibration of the material tank 2 can prevent the concrete from sticking to the various components in the material tank 2, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of premature solidification of the concrete during transportation.

[0040] Preferably, a cavity is opened inside the base 1 at one side close to the armrest 8, and a second circle is opened in the cavity at one side close to the armrest 8, the base 1 is rotatably connected to a threaded rod 23 at the second circle, the threaded sleeve 25 is threadedly connected to the outside of the rod body of the threaded rod 23 in the cavity, and a knob 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 23 outside the cavity.

[0041] Preferably, the top end of the threaded sleeve 25 is rotatably connected to the support rod 22, the top end of the base 1 is provided with a strip opening at the cavity, the support rod 22 extends to the outside of the base 1 at the strip opening, and the top end of the support rod 22 is rotatably connected to the material tank 2, the base 1 is fixedly connected with a guide rail 24 at the inner wall of the bottom end of the cavity, the bottom end of the threaded sleeve 25 is provided with a slide groove, and the threaded sleeve 25 is slidably connected to the guide rail 24 at the slide groove.

[0042] When the concrete is transported to the destination, the knob 7 can be shaken, and the knob 7 can drive the threaded rod 23 to rotate to make the threaded sleeve 25 move in the horizontal direction, so that the threaded sleeve 25 can push the material tank 2 through the support rod 22 and make one end of it tilt upward. In this case, the material tank 2 will be in a tilted state, and after the valve on the discharge hopper 11 is opened, the concrete will be discharged from the discharge port;

[0043] During the concrete discharging process, the rotation of the connecting rod 16 and the movement and swing of the mixing blade 17 can assist the smooth discharge of the concrete, while the vibration of the material tank 2 can ensure the complete discharge of the concrete, thereby ensuring the convenience of the discharging of the device.

[0045] Refer to the attached Figure 6 The present application provides a concrete transfer device. Compared with Example 1, in order to maintain the stability of the material tank during the discharge process, slots 30 are provided at the top and bottom ends of the side panel 4, and a threaded groove 29 is provided at one end of the inner part of the slot 30 of the side panel 4.
