[0039] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] Refer to the attached Figure 1 , Attachment Figure 2 and attached Figure 3The utility model provides an embodiment of a self-repairing performance detection device for modified asphalt, comprising a base 1, a water tank 3 fixedly connected to the middle of the base 1, a sealing cover 4 slidably connected to the top of the water tank 3, a water control component is provided on the left side of the top of the sealing cover 4, a display screen 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, an air pump 9 is fixedly connected, one end of the air pump 9 is connected to an air inlet pipe 10, the other end of the air inlet pipe 10 is connected to the right side of the top of the sealing cover 4, an air valve 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the air inlet pipe 10, a pressure measuring component is provided on the inner side of the water tank 3, a water outlet 14 is connected to the bottom of the water tank 3, a water collecting funnel 16 is slidably connected to the bottom of the water tank 3, an opening and closing component is provided on the top of the water collecting funnel 16, an observation window 12 is provided on the outer wall of the water tank 3, and the outer wall of the water tank 3 The wall is fixedly connected with a scale line 13, and the scale line 13 is arranged on the right side of the observation window 12. A seam-making mechanism 2 is arranged on the inner side of the water tank 3; the water control component includes a water injection pipe 5, one end of the water injection pipe 5 is connected to the top left side of the sealing cover 4, the outer wall of the water injection pipe 5 is fixedly connected with a water valve 6, the outer wall of the water injection pipe 5 is provided with a flow meter 7, and the display screen 8 is electrically connected to the flow meter 7; the pressure measuring component includes an air pressure sensor 20, the top of the air pressure sensor 20 is connected with a connecting port 21, and the outer wall of the connecting port 21 is arranged on the top of the sealing cover 4; the opening and closing component includes two bottom plates 17, the inner side of the upper bottom plate 17 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the water tank 3, and the inner side of the lower bottom plate 17 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the water collecting funnel 16, and the two bottom plates 17 are connected by a fixing screw 18;

[0041] Specifically, water will penetrate downward through the cracks in the mixture, so the water seepage rate reflects the size of the cracks. The self-healing property of the modified asphalt will change the size of the cracks, thereby affecting the water seepage rate. By connecting the flow meter 7 and the display screen 8, the flow value Q1 during the test is recorded. By connecting the air pressure sensor 20 and the display screen 8, the pressure delivered to the water tank 3 can be controlled. The Q2 value can be read through the observation window 12 and the scale line 13 set on the water tank 3. The water seepage rate ratio of the same specimen before and after healing is measured by the device to evaluate the self-healing performance of the asphalt mixture. The water seepage rate before healing is v1=(Q1-Q2) / t(1), and the water seepage rate after healing is v2=(Q1-Q2) / t. The water seepage rate ratio ve=v1 / v2 is calculated to evaluate the self-healing performance of the dense-graded asphalt mixture. The larger ve is, the better the self-healing property of the dense-graded asphalt mixture is. The operation steps are clear and the device structure is relatively simple, easy to operate and maintain, which improves the feasibility and efficiency in practical applications.

[0042] Refer to the attached Figure 4 and attached Figure 5The sewing mechanism 2 includes a heating wire 204, the outer wall of the heating wire 204 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water tank 3, the top of the sealing cover 4 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 202, the bottom end of the connecting rod 202 is fixedly connected to a temperature measuring device 201, the outer wall of the temperature measuring device 201 is arranged on the inner side of the water tank 3, the top of the connecting rod 202 is fixedly connected to a temperature display 203, and the rear side of the water tank 3 is fixedly connected to a controller 205;

[0043] Specifically, relatively stable microcracks can be produced when the seaming temperature is below 5°C. The asphalt sample can be controlled within a better temperature range through the heating wire 204, the temperature measuring device 201, the temperature display 203 and the controller 205. After the self-healing performance of the asphalt sample is measured in the water tank 3, the seaming operation can be performed on the asphalt sample to produce microcracks that can achieve self-repairing, so as not to crush the sample, thereby realizing the reuse of resources and saving resources.

[0044] Refer to the attached Figure 3 , the inner side of the water outlet 14 is fixedly connected with a rubber gasket 15, and the bottom of the rubber gasket 15 is slidably connected to the inner side of the water collecting funnel 16; the bottom of the display screen 8 is fixedly connected with a fixing frame 1 22, and the bottom of the air pump 9 is fixedly connected with a fixing frame 2 23; the outer wall of the fixing screw 18 is threadedly connected with a gasket 19, and the top of the gasket 19 is slidably connected to the bottom of the lower end base plate 17;

[0045] Specifically, the rubber gasket 15 can be well connected to the water collecting funnel 16 and the water tank 3 to ensure its sealing. The display screen 8 is supported by the fixing frame 1 22, and the air pump 9 is fixed by the fixing frame 2 23 to ensure its stable installation. The outer wall of the fixing screw 18 is connected to the gasket 19 by threaded fastening. The gasket 19 is flexibly connected to the bottom of the lower base plate 17, which ensures the stability of the equipment and improves its service life.

[0046] Working principle: The first step of using this device is to put the test piece into the water tank 3 and cover it with the sealing cover 4. The second step is to inject enough water into the water tank 3 through the water filling pipe 5, close the water valve 6 to seal the water tank 3, and record the flow value Q1 through the display 8. The third step is to connect the air pump 9 on the top of the base 1, open the air valve 11 to inflate the water tank 3, and when the value on the display 8 reaches 0.7MPa, close the air inlet valve 11. The fourth step is to twist the fixing screw 18 at the bottom of the water tank 3, and the water in the water tank 3 flows from the water outlet 14 to the water collecting funnel 16. At this time, the water seepage test begins. Synchronously start a stopwatch to record the test time t. After the specified time t, the water seepage test ends. Observe the reading Q2 of the scale line 13 in the water tank 3 through the observation window 12. After obtaining the required Q1, Q2 and t values, calculate the water seepage rate v1 value according to the specified formula. In the fifth step, add the healed specimen back into the water tank 3 and repeat the above four steps again to calculate the value of v2. Finally, use the water seepage rate ratio ve of the same specimen before and after healing to evaluate the self-healing performance of the dense-graded asphalt mixture. The larger ve is, the better the self-healing performance of the dense-graded asphalt mixture is.

[0047] When the seaming temperature is below 5°C, relatively stable microcracks can be produced. The temperature of the current asphalt sample is observed by the temperature measuring device 201 set inside the water tank 3. When the temperature is low and does not reach the ideal temperature, the controller 205 can be used to adjust the heat of the heating wire 204 to heat the asphalt sample inside the water tank 3.
