Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the performance test of cement concrete mixture, and particularly to a device for measuring the slump of concrete. Background Art
[0002] The test method for measuring the consistency of cement concrete mixture by using a slump cone is as follows: The concrete sample is filled into the slump cone in three layers and tamped with a tamping rod. After scraping off the excess concrete at the mouth of the cone, the slump cone is vertically lifted, and the slump and spread of the conical concrete sample are measured to evaluate the consistency of the cement concrete mixture.
[0003] Currently, the measurement of concrete slump is carried out manually, that is: manually stepping on the footrest tightly, manually tamping, manually vertically lifting the slump cone, manually cleaning the cement concrete mixture scattered around the bottom of the cone, manually cleaning the cement concrete mixture after the test is completed, and manually measuring the slump and spread of the cement concrete mixture with a ruler.
[0004] The manual measurement of concrete slump is labor-consuming and time-consuming, and is very inconvenient. The key is that due to completely manual operation, it may lead to large errors in the measurement results. For example, when filling the cement concrete mixture, the slump cone is not tamped firmly and the concrete at the bottom of the slump cone leaks out, the tamping rod is not used vertically for tamping, the slump cone is not lifted vertically accurately, the mixture around the bottom of the cone that is not cleaned up is mixed with the conical concrete sample, etc., all of which will lead to inaccurate measurement results of the slump and spread.

[0032] The features and performance of the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments.
[0033] Embodiment 1 This embodiment discloses a concrete slump measuring device, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 shown, including a bottom plate 1, a slump cone 2, a measuring mechanism 3, a positioning and locking mechanism 4, a ramming mechanism 5 and a cleaning mechanism 6; Wherein: The measuring mechanism 3 is used to measure the spread and slump of the material. It includes a spread mark 31, a slump scale rod 32 and a long ruler 33. The spread mark 31 is provided on the bottom plate 1. The spread mark 31 is a plurality of concentric rings with numerical values. The slump scale rod 32 can display the distance from the bottom plate 1. The long ruler 33 is slidably and rotatably provided on the slump scale rod 32, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 andFigure 9 ; The positioning and locking mechanism 4 is used to position the slump cone 2 at the center of the extension mark 31 and fit and lock it on the bottom plate 1. It includes a positioning hole 41, a plug 42, an elastic member 43 and a bolt assembly. The positioning hole 41 is provided on the bottom plate 1, and a locking hole 413 is provided on the side wall of the positioning hole 41. The plug 42 is slidably fitted in the positioning hole 41. The elastic member 43 is provided in the positioning hole 41 and applies an upward restoring force to the plug 42. The bolt assembly is provided at the lower end of the outer side of the slump cone 2. The bolt assembly includes a bolt 44 and an operating member 45 for operating the bolt 44. Initially, the plug 42 is flush with the bottom plate 1 and blocks the positioning hole 41. After the bolt assembly presses down the plug 42 into the positioning hole 41, the operating member 45 operates the bolt 44 to be able to enter and exit the locking hole 413 to realize the locking and unlocking of the slump cone 2, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 ; The ramming mechanism 5 is used to realize ramming inside the slump cone 2 and lifting of the slump cone. It includes an electric telescopic member 51, a motor 52, a connector 53, a rammer 54 and a protrusion 55. The electric telescopic member 51 points vertically downward towards the center of the extension mark 31. The motor 52 is provided at the lower end of the electric telescopic member 51 and can be driven to lift and lower. The connector 53 is provided at the lower end of the motor 52 and can be driven to rotate. Rammer mounting ports are distributed on the lower side of the connector 53. The rammer 54 is detachably mounted on the rammer mounting ports. The protrusions 55 are distributed at the upper end of the outer side of the slump cone 2. Hook claws 531 capable of being screwed into the protrusions 55 are provided on the outer edge of the connector 53. Under the cooperation of the electric telescopic member 51 and the motor 52, the rammer 54 can insert into the slump cone 2 to complete the ramming action under the ramming condition, and the hook claws 531 can be screwed into the protrusions 55 and vertically lift the slump cone 2 under the condition of lifting the cone, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 ; The cleaning mechanism 6 is used to clean the materials on the bottom plate 1. It includes a scraper 61 and a collection trough 62. The scraper 61 fits the bottom plate 1 and can move along the bottom plate 1. The collection trough 62 is located on the side of the bottom plate 1 away from the scraper 61 and is used to collect the scraped materials. The slump scale rod 32 is provided inside the scraper 61, and the long ruler 33 can be placed on the top edge of the scraper 61, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 .
[0034] According to the above scheme, it can be known that: The positioning and locking mechanism 4 of the device can position the slump cone 2 at the center of the spreading degree mark 31 and fit and lock it on the bottom plate 1, facilitating subsequent ramming operations, cone-lifting operations, and measurements in conjunction with the spreading degree mark, ensuring the accuracy prerequisite for the test. Among them, the automatically resetting plug 42 can not only prevent the material from falling into the positioning hole 41 after the slump cone 2 is lifted, but also push the slump cone 2 out of the positioning hole 41 in a timely manner during the cone-lifting operation; The ramming mechanism 5 of the device can achieve ramming and cone-lifting. Among them, the ramming action is achieved by the cooperation of the electric telescopic member 51, the motor 52, the connector 53, and the rammer 54, and the vertical cone-lifting action is achieved by the cooperation of the electric telescopic member 51, the motor 52, the connector 53, the hook claw 531, and the protrusion 55, avoiding the errors caused by manual ramming and cone-lifting; The measuring mechanism 3 of the device can measure the spreading degree and slump of the material after ramming and cone-lifting. Among them, the spreading degree can be obtained by reading the concentric ring value at the edge of the material, and the slump can be obtained by placing the long ruler 33 against the highest point of the material and reading the corresponding value on the slump scale rod 32, with accurate measurement; The cleaning mechanism 6 of the device can quickly and thoroughly clean the measured material on the bottom plate 1 after measurement using the scraper 61; and, in order to avoid interference between the slump scale rod 32 and the scraper 61, the slump scale rod 32 is arranged inside the scraper 61; and, when the long ruler 33 is not in use, the long ruler 33 can slide above the scraper 61 and rotate above the scraper 61 to be placed on the top edge of the scraper 61. Since there is a sliding pair between the long ruler 33 and the slump scale rod 32, it will not fall as long as support is provided below the long ruler 33. Therefore, the long ruler 33 can be stably placed on the top edge of the scraper 61 without falling and can move with the scraper 61.
[0035] The device is easy to operate and can be operated by a single person to complete the positioning and locking, ramming, and cone-lifting of the slump cone 2, saving manpower.
[0036] Regarding the control of the electric telescopic member 51 and the motor 52, in this embodiment, preferably: The electric telescopic member 51 has four gears and three working modes. Among them, when the four gears are not turned on, the connector 53 is in the initial position. When the rammer 54 is installed in the initial position of the connector 53, the lower end of the rammer 54 is higher than the upper opening of the slump cone 2 after positioning. When the first to third gears are turned on simultaneously, the rammer 54 on the connector 53 can be inserted into the slump cone 2 after positioning and contact the bottom plate 1. When the second and third gears are turned on simultaneously, the lower end of the rammer on the connector is below one-third of the height of the slump cone after positioning. When only the third gear is turned on, the lower end of the rammer 54 on the connector 53 is below two-thirds of the height of the slump cone 2 after positioning. When the first to fourth gears are turned on simultaneously, the hook claw 531 on the connector 53 is at a height where it can cooperate with the protrusion 55 on the slump cone 2 after positioning. In the first mode, the opening and closing of the first to third gears can be freely controlled. In the second mode, it reciprocates uniformly in a certain height range and number of times. In the third mode, the first to fourth gears are turned on simultaneously; The motor 52 has two working modes. Among them, in the first mode, it drives the connector 53 to rotate a certain angle for the hook claw 531 after reaching the height to be screwed into the protrusion 55. In the second mode, it drives the connector 53 to rotate uniformly and reciprocally by a certain angle and number of times; The working time of the second mode of the electric telescopic member 51 and the second mode of the motor 52 is the same.
[0037] In this embodiment, the electric telescopic member 51 is controlled by several gears and modes, and the motor 52 is controlled by several modes, which can better standardize the movement amplitude of the two, avoid mechanical interference caused by excessive stroke and incomplete movement caused by insufficient stroke. Compared with the full manual control of the electric telescopic member 51 and the motor 52, it is more efficient, safer, simple to operate and easy to get started.
[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the height of the slump cone 2 is 300 mm; the full length of the rammer 54 is 320 mm, and its upper end is a 10-mm-long threaded section. The rammer installation port is a threaded hole with a depth of 10 mm. After the rammer 54 is installed in place on the rammer installation port, the exposed length of the rammer 54 is 310 mm. Three rammer installation ports are evenly distributed around the center of the extension mark 31 on the lower side of the connector 53; Three protrusions 55 are evenly distributed around the center of the extension mark 31 on the upper outer side of the slump cone 2. Three hook claws 531 are evenly distributed around the center of the extension mark 31 on the outer edge of the connector 53; Initially, the lower end of the rammer 54 on the connector 53 is 15 mm higher than the upper opening of the slump cone 2, which is sufficient to install and remove the rammer 54 and add the concrete sample. The protrusion 55 and the hook claw 531 are staggered by sixty degrees; The extension amount of the first gear of the electric telescopic member 51 is 75 mm, the extension amount of the second gear is 100 mm, the extension amount of the third gear is 140 mm, and the extension amount of the fourth gear is 10 mm. The electric telescopic member 51 reciprocates uniformly by 100 mm for twenty-five times in the second mode; The motor 52 rotates sixty degrees in the first mode, and the motor 52 rotates uniformly and reciprocally by one hundred and twenty degrees for twenty-five times in the second mode.
[0039] According to the above control methods of the electric telescopic member 51 and the motor 52, the following operation method is adopted: At the initial stage: Use the positioning and locking mechanism 4 to position the slump cone 2 at the center of the spread mark 31 and fit and lock it on the bottom plate 1. The connector 53 is in the initial position. Install the rammer 54 on the rammer installation port, as shown in Figure 1 ; Under the ramming condition: First, turn on the first mode of the electric telescopic member 51, then turn on the first to third gears. The rammer 54 is inserted into the slump cone 2 and contacts the bottom plate 1. Then add the concrete sample to one-third of the height of the slump cone 2. Then, simultaneously turn on the second mode of the electric telescopic member 51 and the second mode of the motor 52. After the ramming action is completed, turn on the first mode of the electric telescopic member 51 again, and then turn off the first gear. The lower end of the rammer 54 is below one-third of the height inside the slump cone 2. Then add the concrete sample to two-thirds of the height of the slump cone 2. Then, simultaneously turn on the second mode of the electric telescopic member 51 and the second mode of the motor 52. After the ramming action is completed, turn on the first mode of the electric telescopic member 51 again, and then turn off the second gear. The lower end of the rammer 54 is below two-thirds of the height inside the slump cone 2. Then add the concrete sample to fill the slump cone 2. Then, simultaneously turn on the second mode of the electric telescopic member 51 and the second mode of the motor 52. After the ramming action is completed, turn on the first mode of the electric telescopic member 51 again, and then turn off the third gear. The connector 53 returns to the initial position; Under the condition of lifting the cone: First, remove the rammer 54, and use sawing and rolling actions to remove the excess concrete on the rammer 54. Use a trowel to level the upper opening of the slump cone 2. Then turn on the third mode of the electric telescopic member 51, and turn on the first to fourth gears simultaneously. The hook claw 531 is at a height where it can cooperate with the protrusion 55. Then turn on the first mode of the motor 52. The connector 53 rotates a certain angle to screw the hook claw 531 into the protrusion 55. Then operate the operating member 45 to unlock the slump cone 2. Then turn off the third mode of the electric telescopic member 51. The connector 53 vertically lifts the slump cone 2 and returns to the initial position, as shown in Figure 7 ; After the cone is lifted: Manually rotate the slump cone 2 to remove it. Read the concentric ring value at the edge of the material to obtain the spread. Place the long ruler 33 against the highest point of the material and read the corresponding value on the slump scale bar 32 to obtain the slump. Then place the long ruler 33 on the edge of the scraper 61, drive the scraper 61 to move along the bottom plate 1, and the collection tank 62 collects the scraped material. The scraper 61 can be pushed multiple times to repeat the operation to scrape it clean. Finally, water is used to clean the entire device.

The operating member 45 includes a disc 452, a handle 451 provided on the top surface of the disc 452, and a transmission post 453 eccentrically provided on the bottom surface of the disc 452. The disc 452 is fitted in the sunk groove and abuts between the inner end surface of the sunk groove and the top surface of the bolt 44. The handle 451 extends out of the circular hole 472 and can rotate in the circular hole 472. The transmission post 453 is fitted and inserted into the linear groove 441. When the handle 451 is rotated, the bolt 44 can be driven to extend and retract along the bolt housing 47 through the transmission post 453 and the linear groove 441. When the bolt 44 extends after the slump cone 2 is positioned, it enters the locking hole 413, and when the bolt 44 retracts, it exits the locking hole 413. The axial direction of the operating member 45 is limited by the bolt housing 47 and the bolt 44, and the radial direction is limited by the sunk groove. It can only rotate. The up and down direction of the bolt 44 is limited by the operating member 45 and the extension piece 46, and the horizontal direction is restricted by the U-shaped groove of the bolt housing 47. It can only slide horizontally. Since the transmission post 453 is eccentrically provided, when the handle 451 drives the operating member 45 to rotate, under the cooperation of the transmission post 453 and the linear groove 441, the bolt 44 will be driven to extend and retract along the bolt housing 47. Therefore, only by operating the handle 451 can the locking and unlocking after the slump cone 2 is positioned be realized. And, as Figure 6 shown, a ring groove 4521 is provided on the outer circle of the disc 452, and a flange 471 matching the ring groove 4521 is provided on the inner side surface of the sunk groove. The ring groove 4521 and the flange 471 are assembled together by pressing using the material deformation of the operating member 46 and the bolt housing 47. The ring groove 4521 and the flange 471 can not only axially limit and radially limit the operating member 45, but also provide frictional force to achieve the effect of frictional locking on the rotation position of the handle 451.
[0041] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 shown, the positioning hole 41 and the plug 42 are rectangular. When the slump cone 2 is positioned, the internal angle between the horizontal portion and the stepped portion is fitted at the external angle on one side of the upper opening of the positioning hole 41. The rectangular positioning hole 41 and the plug 42 are easy to process. The key is that they are easy to cooperate with the extension piece 46. When the internal angle between the horizontal portion and the stepped portion is fitted at the external angle on one side of the upper opening of the positioning hole 41, it indicates that the slump cone 2 has been positioned. The elastic member 43 can adopt a rectangular spring.
[0042] AsFigure 4 and Figure 5 As shown in Figure 5 , a protrusion 411 is formed by protruding from one side of the upper opening of the positioning hole 41 into the positioning hole 41. A yielding groove 421 matching the protrusion 411 is provided on the corresponding side of the plug 42. Chamfers (412, 422) matching each other are provided at the lower ends of the protrusion 411 and the yielding groove 421, and the chamfers (412, 422) adopt arc transitions. The protrusion 411 and the yielding groove 421 can limit the upward stroke of the plug 42 and prevent the plug 42 from coming out. The chamfers (412, 422) with arc transitions can reduce the limiting impact and play a buffering role.
[0043] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 7 As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 , two groups of positioning holes 41 and pin assemblies are provided. The two groups of positioning holes 41 are symmetric about the center of the spread mark 31, and the two groups of pin assemblies are symmetric about the slump cone 2. Therefore, no matter in which direction, the slump cone 2 can be quickly positioned.
[0044] Regarding the slump cone 2, in this embodiment, preferably: As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , a material receiving plate 21 for receiving the splashed material is provided on the outer side of the slump cone 2. When filling concrete into the slump cone 2, ramming the concrete in the slump cone 2, and leveling the concrete at the upper opening of the slump cone 2, it is possible for the material to splash out. The material receiving plate 21 receives the splashed material and prevents it from falling on the bottom plate 1, avoiding inaccurate subsequent measurement results.
[0045] Regarding the cleaning mechanism 6, in this embodiment, preferably: As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figures 7 to 9 As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 7 to 9 , the scraper 61 is U-shaped, and flanges 611 are provided on both side edges of the scraper 61. The scraper 61 is driven by the electric pushers 63 on both sides to move the flanges 611 on their respective sides synchronously. The U-shaped scraper 61 can gather the material in the groove and prevent the material from flowing away from the side. The electric pusher 63 can adopt a multi-section structure to increase the telescopic stroke.
[0046] Regarding the bottom plate 1, in this embodiment: The bottom plate 1 can be a solid plate or a hollow plate with a thicker top surface than other surfaces.
[0047] Regarding the measuring mechanism 3, in this embodiment: In the spread mark 31, starting from the concentric ring with a diameter of 200 mm, a concentric ring is set every time the diameter increases by 100 mm until reaching the concentric ring with a diameter of 800 mm; the measuring range of the slump scale rod 32 is from 3 mm to 300 mm, the minimum unit is 1 mm, and the long ruler 33 only serves to approach the material and has no scale marks on it. The diameter of the slump scale rod 32 is 3.5 mm and the length is 327 mm. The end of the long ruler 33 is sleeved on the slump scale rod 32 through a sliding cylinder 34. The inner diameter of the sliding cylinder 34 is 3.5 mm, the outer diameter is 4 mm, and the length is 30 mm.
[0048] Regarding the ramming mechanism 5, in this embodiment: The electric telescopic member 51 is installed on the bottom plate 1 through a folding rod 56. The folding rod 56 is fixed at a corner of the bottom plate 1, first extends upward, then extends horizontally towards the center of the spread mark 31, and then extends downward.
[0049] Embodiment 2 This embodiment discloses another concrete slump measuring device. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the cleaning mechanism 6 is cancelled, and the slump scale rod 32 is fixed on the bottom plate 1. When it is necessary to remove the material on the bottom plate 1, the material on the bottom plate 1 is scraped off manually with a scraper.
