Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of asphalt processing technology, and specifically relates to an intelligent feeding device for recycled asphalt mixture. Background Technology
[0002] Asphalt pavement recycling technology, with its significant advantages of environmental protection, energy conservation, and resource saving, has become one of the core technologies in highway maintenance and road construction. The production quality of recycled asphalt mixtures directly determines the road performance and service life of recycled asphalt pavements. As the core process in the production of recycled asphalt mixtures, the feeding process, its feeding accuracy, material pretreatment effect, and degree of automation directly affect the uniformity and formula conformity of the mixture.
[0003] Currently, there are still many technical defects in the feeding process of recycled asphalt mixtures, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale and standardized production. Firstly, the material storage and feeding stages lack targeted pretreatment structures. Direct feeding of solid aggregates into the storage bins can easily cause wear and tear due to impact, and can also lead to accumulation and arching problems. When liquid additives are fed into the bins, excessive flow rates can cause splashing and waste, and localized impacts can lead to uneven mixing within the bins. Fiber materials are prone to clumping and entanglement; direct feeding will result in uneven fiber dispersion in the mixture, significantly reducing the crack resistance and fatigue resistance of asphalt pavements. Secondly, the feeding and metering methods are relatively crude, often using a single bin for rough weighing without dedicated metering units for different forms of materials (solid, liquid, and fiber). This results in low metering accuracy, easily leading to feeding deviations and causing the mixture formula to deviate from the preset standards, affecting the quality of pavement construction. Thirdly, the feeding unit design is homogeneous; solid, liquid, and fiber materials are all fed using simple pipes or troughs. Direct dripping of liquid materials can easily cause localized adhesion to aggregates, and undispersed fiber materials can easily form clusters, resulting in insufficient mixing of the mixture. Fourth, the entire feeding process has a low degree of automation. There is a lack of coordinated control in the storage, metering, feeding, and mixing stages, which requires a lot of manual intervention. This not only increases labor costs, but also amplifies feeding errors due to the randomness of manual operation. At the same time, there are certain safety hazards in human contact with high-temperature and high-viscosity asphalt materials.
[0004] In addition, although some existing feeding devices have made simple improvements for single materials, they have not achieved integrated design for solid, liquid and fibrous materials. Each device operates independently, resulting in low space utilization and a lack of a unified control center. This makes it impossible to achieve intelligent control and data linkage throughout the entire process, and it is difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production of recycled asphalt mixtures.
[0005] Therefore, developing an intelligent feeding device for recycled asphalt mixtures that can achieve pretreatment, precise metering, directional feeding, coordinated mixing, and fully automated control of materials of different forms has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in the industry.

[0033] Through the above technical solution, the controller is the core control component of the entire intelligent feeding device for recycled asphalt mixture. It has a built-in programmable logic control module, data acquisition and processing module, and instruction output module. It establishes a stable electrical connection with each execution component and sensing component through an industrial bus. The specific connection relationship and control logic are as follows: the signal input terminal of the controller is electrically connected to the signal output terminals of the first weighing sensor, the second weighing sensor, and the third weighing sensor, and is used to receive the weight detection data of solid, liquid, and fibrous materials collected by each sensor in real time. The instruction output terminal of the controller is electrically connected to the control terminals of the solenoid valves at the outlets of the solid storage bin 3, the liquid storage bin 4, the fiber storage bin 5, the solid metering bin 11, the liquid metering bin 2, and the fiber metering bin 7, the drive motor control terminals of the first screw feeder 10 and the second screw feeder 8, the motor control terminal of the liquid discharge pump 19, and the control terminals of the first stirring motor and the second stirring motor 6.
[0034] Based on the above connection relationship, the controller can complete the closed-loop automatic control of the entire process according to the preset recycled asphalt mixture formula parameters and the real-time received weight data: First, it analyzes, compares and judges the weight data transmitted by each weighing sensor, compares the real-time weight with the preset target weight, and when the preset value is reached, it outputs on / off and opening adjustment commands to the solenoid valves of the corresponding storage bins and metering bins to achieve precise feeding and unloading of each material. At the same time, it calculates the cumulative error based on the deviation between the actual feeding amount and the preset value, and automatically adjusts the feeding amount in subsequent batches to complete error compensation; Second, after the solid metering bin 11 completes metering, it outputs start / stop and speed adjustment commands to the first screw feeder 10, and adjusts the speed according to the preset feeding speed and the working conditions of the mixing unit to achieve uniform and quantitative conveying of solid materials; Third, after the liquid metering bin 2 completes metering, it outputs start / stop and power commands to the liquid discharge pump 19. The flow rate is adjusted by controlling the frequency of the frequency converter to ensure that the liquid material is sprayed evenly through the spray pipe at a preset spray rate. Fourth, after the fiber metering bin 7 completes the metering, the start / stop and speed adjustment commands are sent to the second screw feeder 8 to adjust the speed according to the fiber type and preset feeding speed, so as to quantitatively transport the pre-cut fiber material. Fifth, the start / stop and speed adjustment commands are sent to the second stirring motor 6 to control the cutting blade 13 to pre-cut the material in the fiber storage bin 5 according to the fiber type and pretreatment requirements, so as to ensure that the fiber reaches the appropriate length and dispersion state before entering the metering bin. Sixth, according to the preset stirring process, the start / stop and speed adjustment commands are sent to the first stirring motor to synchronously control its operation status in conjunction with the feeding progress, so as to realize the coordinated linkage between feeding and stirring. After the stirring reaches the preset time, the stirring motor is stopped and the unloading gate is opened to complete the unloading.
[0035] In summary, through the aforementioned electrical connections and control logic, the controller enables coordinated operation of material storage, pretreatment, metering, feeding, and mixing processes. It also has the function of dynamically adjusting control parameters based on real-time feedback data, ensuring the accuracy, stability, and efficiency of recycled asphalt mixture production.
[0036] The working method of the intelligent feeding device for recycled asphalt mixture provided by this invention is as follows: First, solid aggregates, liquid additives, and fiber materials are conveyed to their respective storage silos via solid feeding unit 16, liquid feeding unit 17, and fiber feeding unit 18. Solid aggregates are buffered by buffer plate 15 and stored in solid storage silo 3. Liquid additives are slowly fed into liquid storage silo 4 via spiral plate 14. Fiber materials are cut and broken up by cutting blade 13 driven by second stirring motor 6 and stored in fiber storage silo 5. The controller opens the outlet solenoid valves of each storage silo, allowing materials to enter the corresponding intelligent metering unit. Each weighing sensor detects the material weight in real time, achieving the pre-set weight. After the weight is set, the controller closes the solenoid valve at the outlet of the storage silo; then the controller opens the solenoid valves at the outlet of each metering silo, and simultaneously starts the first screw feeder 10, the liquid pump 19, and the second screw feeder 8. Solid materials are fed into the mixing silo 9 at a uniform speed through the first screw feeder 10, liquid materials are atomized and sprayed into the mixing silo 9 through the spray pipe, and fibrous materials are fed into the mixing silo 9 at a uniform speed through the second screw feeder 8. At the same time as feeding, the controller starts the first mixing motor, which drives the mixing blades to rotate, realizing the instantaneous coordinated mixing of the three materials, and finally obtaining a uniform recycled asphalt mixture.
[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present invention. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
