Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of concrete production equipment, in particular to a concrete production device. Background Art
[0002] Concrete is one of the most important civil engineering materials today. It is an artificial stone material made from a cementitious material (cementitious material), granular aggregate (also known as aggregate), water, and, if necessary, admixtures and additives, mixed in specific proportions, then uniformly mixed, compacted into a dense shape, and cured and hardened. Concrete's abundant raw materials, low price, and simple production process have led to its increasing use. Concrete also boasts high compressive strength, excellent durability, and a wide range of strength grades. These characteristics have led to its widespread use, not only in various civil engineering projects but also in shipbuilding, machinery, marine development, geothermal engineering, and other fields.
[0003] Concrete thermal storage is a common method for winter concrete construction. It utilizes the heat contained in concrete to increase its strength to a predetermined value at normal temperatures. This method utilizes the heat generated by heating raw materials or concrete, as well as the heat of hydration of cement. Covering the concrete structure with insulation prevents rapid loss of this heat, slowing the cooling of the concrete and allowing it to reach its critical freezing strength at normal temperatures. The thermal storage method utilizes the heat from preheating raw materials and the heat of hydration of cement, and covers it with appropriate insulation to slow the cooling of the concrete, ensuring that the concrete hardens at normal temperatures for a period of time. When using the thermal storage method to process concrete for winter use, water heating should be the first consideration due to its high specific heat and the simplicity of water heating. However, if heating water alone is insufficient, sand and stone heating can be considered. This can be achieved by directly heating the sand and stone with steam or indirectly using steam coils. The temperatures for heating the water, sand, and stone are determined by thermal engineering calculations. While the temperature of aggregates such as sand and stone can be increased by directly introducing steam into them, the direct introduction of steam into the aggregates will also increase their moisture content due to the liquefaction of the steam. This is particularly true for fine aggregates, as the fluidity of the aggregate decreases as its moisture content increases. Furthermore, due to their large specific surface area, fine aggregates tend to retain more moisture, which introduces greater uncertainty into the determination of the water delivery rate during the subsequent concrete mixing process. Therefore, prior art has primarily considered utilizing steam sand and stone for indirect heat exchange to achieve heating of the aggregates. However, when processing concrete constructed using the thermal storage method, water heating should also be considered, ensuring that the processed concrete contains a predetermined amount of thermal energy for sufficient use. Moreover, the liquefied water formed by the steam that completes indirect heat exchange with aggregates such as sand and stone does not contain too many impurities, and its use should be fully considered to ensure that the steam carries heat and the material is fully utilized; therefore, in the process of processing concrete constructed by the heat storage method, the existing technology should consider the calorific value of steam and the comprehensive utilization of steam liquefied water in the process of steam heating aggregates such as sand and stone and the water used for mixing, so as to facilitate the determination of the amount of water required for concrete mixing processing while ensuring the fluidity of the aggregates, so as to meet market demand and facilitate promotion and application.

[0025] The method of using this product is as follows: Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the following steps are included:
[0026] S1, after the coarse aggregate storage tank 1 is loaded with a preset mass of stone particles as coarse aggregate for concrete, the fine aggregate storage tank 2 is loaded with a preset mass of sand and soil as coarse aggregate for concrete, the cement storage tank 16 is loaded with a preset volume of cement, and the water storage tank 4 is loaded with a preset volume of municipal water, high-pressure steam is introduced into the first jacket 6 and the second jacket 7 respectively, and at the same time, the stirring device on the coarse aggregate storage tank 1 and the stirring device on the fine aggregate storage tank 2 are turned on.
