Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vertical slipform machine technology, specifically a low-station vertical slipform machine. Background Technology

[0002] The comfortable operating height for a standing person is between 1050mm and 1300mm. However, the height from the worktable of a standard machine with a clamping force of 850KN to the ground is over 1150mm, and the mold height is over 1350mm. Generally, it is necessary to raise the machine by 100mm to 200mm to achieve a comfortable height. However, there are certain safety hazards for personnel working in the raised area for a long time. Therefore, we need a low-position vertical slipform machine.

[0003] Currently used vertical slipform machines have significant design shortcomings in actual operation. The core problem lies in the setting of the equipment's operating height, which generally exceeds the comfortable range for hand operation while standing and is incompatible with the conventional working posture of most operators. To complete key operations such as equipment control, parameter adjustment, and material replenishment, operators have to rely on scaffolding, platforms, or temporary raised structures. This raised operation not only significantly increases the complexity of the construction process and reduces work efficiency but also brings prominent safety hazards. When operators are raised, their balance and stability decrease, making them prone to slipping and falling accidents if the ground is uneven or the auxiliary facilities are not stable enough. At the same time, raised operation also reduces the precision of the coordination between the operator and the key operating parts of the equipment, which may lead to operational errors, affecting the construction quality and even damaging the equipment itself, thus bringing multiple adverse effects on the safety, efficiency, and economy of the project construction. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a low-station vertical slipform machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A low-position vertical sliding mold machine includes an electrical box, a machine housing installed on the side wall of the electrical box, and a mold closing mechanism installed on the inner wall of the machine housing. The mold closing mechanism includes a lower mold plate, a sliding mold base plate, a sliding mold plate, a mold closing high-pressure hydraulic cylinder, a positioner, a mold closing guide pillar, an upper mold plate, an upper mold cooling water plate, and an opening and closing hydraulic cylinder. A gripping mechanism is installed on the top of the mold closing mechanism, an injection mechanism is installed on the top of the mold closing mechanism, and an ejection mechanism is installed on the bottom of the mold closing mechanism.

[0006] Preferably, the upper mold plate is slidably connected to the mold closing guide post, and the upper mold cooling plate is tightly fitted to the sliding mold plate.

[0007] Preferably, the gripping mechanism includes a gripper, a gripping pressure plate, a gripping cylinder, a gripping guide rod, and a gripping oil inlet.

[0008] Preferably, the gripper is symmetrically arranged around the central axis of the gripper cylinder, and the gripper pressure plate is engaged with the gripper.

[0009] Preferably, the injection mechanism includes an injection base adapter plate, an injection base guide rod, a storage bin, an injection cylinder assembly, and an injection nozzle.

[0010] Preferably, the shooting base guide rods are arranged in a rectangular array with the central axis of the shooting base adapter plate as the center, and the center position of the shooting base adapter plate is designed with an opening.

[0011] Preferably, the ejection mechanism includes a fixed plate, an ejector plate, an ejection guide rod, an ejector bar, and an ejection cylinder.

[0012] A low-station vertical slipform machine and its usage method include the following steps: S1. First, confirm that the finished product on the template surface has been removed, and confirm that the sliding template has been fully retracted. S2. Then control the gripper cylinder to retract and open the gripper to the end, and then control the mold opening and closing cylinder to perform the mold opening action, so that the upper mold plate opens upward. S3. At this time, the storage bin moves to the point where the storage is completed. Then, the sliding plate is pushed out to coincide with the sliding plate base and the positioning is confirmed. Then, the mold opening and closing cylinder is controlled to perform the mold closing action, so that the upper plate closes downward. S4. Adjust the position of the mold closing guide pillars, and then control the gripper cylinder to extend and close the gripper to the end. When the mold is closed, pressurize it through the mold closing high-pressure cylinder. S5. Finally, the injection cylinder group controls the nozzle to complete the injection action, and then waits for the product to form. Repeat the above steps to complete one cycle and then complete the injection process.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: The machine employs a specially designed mold-closing mechanism. The distance from the lower mold plate to the ground is 783mm. The normal machine height is approximately 1200mm, while the comfortable operating height for a human standing hand is between 1050mm and 1300mm. By lowering the platform height, operators can easily reach the lower mold plate and surrounding work area while standing on the ground, eliminating the need to "reach out" or "bend over" like with traditional high-position machines. Hand operation is more natural and effortless. Whether checking the mold plate fit, adjusting the concrete placement position, or cleaning residual materials from the mold surface, all tasks can be completed in a comfortable standing posture, reducing arm and back fatigue from prolonged work and indirectly improving work efficiency and operational accuracy. Furthermore, operation can be performed without the need for a platform, avoiding the risk of falls and collisions caused by unstable platforms when workers are standing on them.
