Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of prefabricated box girders, and particularly relates to a full-automatic spraying and curing device for prefabricated box girders. Background Art
[0002] A box girder is a type of beam used in bridge construction. It is hollow inside and has flanges on both sides. Reinforced concrete box girders are categorized as precast or cast-in-place. Precast box girders are widely used in existing bridge construction. Precast box girders are large precast concrete components. After the formwork is completed, they require regular spray curing to prevent shrinkage cracks and ensure their durability and aesthetics.
[0003] Prior art discloses curing devices for prefabricated box girders. For example, CN116476209A discloses a prefabricated box girder spray curing device and its method. The prefabricated box girder curing device comprises a support portion, a running portion, a first spray curing portion, a second spray curing portion, a water storage portion, and a curing water collection portion. The second spray curing portion comprises a first spray element and a second spray element, and the angle formed between the first and second spray elements is adjustable. The prefabricated box girder curing device disclosed in this patent utilizes a first chute on the spray mounting member of the second spray curing portion, enabling the sliding element to reciprocate along the extension direction of the first chute. A transmission assembly converts the reciprocating sliding of the sliding element into reciprocating oscillation of the first and second spray elements, thereby achieving sufficient spray curing of the prefabricated box girder flanks. This solves the problems of prefabricated box girder spray curing devices, such as cracks in the flanks caused by spraying at the four corners, and the excessive water consumption and severe waste of water resources.

[0036] The following is a clear and complete description of the technical solution of this utility model. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0037] Example
[0038] See attached Figure 1-4 , a fully automatic spray curing device for prefabricated box beams, comprising:
[0039] The support part 2 is arranged on the outside of the prefabricated box beam 1, and the support part 2 includes pedestals 21 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the prefabricated box beam 1 and support frames 22 with their bottom ends fixed on the pedestals 21 on both sides;
[0040] The travel part 3 that connects the support part 2 and drives the support part 2 to travel along the length direction of the precast box beam 1 includes guide rails 31 symmetrically laid on both sides of the precast box beam 1, a driving motor 32 fixed to one side of the pedestal 21, and a driven wheel 33 and a driving wheel 34 symmetrically arranged at the bottom of both ends of the pedestal 21 and rotatably connected to the pedestal 21; wherein the driving wheel 34 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 32; the driven wheel 33 and the driving wheel 34 are both guided and matched with the guide rail 31; it should be supplemented here that the contact surfaces of the driven wheel 33 and the driving wheel 34 with the guide rail 31 are concave inwardly, so as to prevent the driven wheel 33 and the driving wheel 34 from detaching from the guide rail 31; in addition, two driven wheels 33 are arranged at a distance at the bottom of one end of the pedestal 21, and two driving wheels 34 are arranged at a distance at the bottom of the other end of the pedestal 21; the guide rails 31 are laid at a distance of two on both sides of the precast box beam 1 and correspond to the driven wheels 33 and the driving wheels 34 at corresponding positions;
[0041] A plurality of first spray heads 4 are fixed on both sides of the support portion 2 and directed toward the side surfaces of the prefabricated box girder 1. It should be noted that the first spray heads 4 are fixed to the support frame 22, and during the fixing process, the spraying direction of the first spray heads 4 can be fixed according to actual needs so as to better spray the side surfaces of the prefabricated box girder 1.
[0042] A plurality of second spray heads 5 fixed to the top of the support portion 2 and spraying toward the top of the prefabricated box girder 1;
[0043] Among them, water tanks 23 are symmetrically fixed on the pedestals 21 on both sides of the support part 2, and booster pumps 24 are respectively provided in the water tanks 23. The water outlet of the booster pump 24 in one water tank 23 is connected to the first sprinkler head 4 through a pipe, and the water outlet of the booster pump 24 in the other water tank 23 is connected to the second sprinkler head 5 through a pipe.
[0044] In this embodiment, a baffle 311 is fixed to each end of the guide rail 31; a limit switch 211 corresponding to the baffle 311 and connected to the drive motor 32 is fixed to each end of the pedestal 21; when the limit switch 211 touches the baffle 311, the limit switch 211 is triggered, and the drive motor 32 reverses; secondly, an infrared anti-collision device 212 connected to the drive motor 32 is fixed to each end of the pedestal 21; when the infrared anti-collision device 212 detects an on-site worker, the infrared anti-collision device 212 is triggered, and the drive motor 32 stops. The provision of the infrared anti-collision device 212 can prevent the pedestal 21 from colliding with on-site workers during movement in this embodiment, thereby ensuring construction safety.
[0045] Secondly, in this embodiment, a water supply pipe 6 connected to an external water source is fixed to the outside of the support portion 2. The water supply pipe 6 extends vertically upward, with the top outlet curved downward into a U-shape. A water supply switch 61 corresponding to the base 21 is fixed to the water supply pipe 6, and a liquid level gauge 231 is fixed near the top of the water tank 23. A controller 7 connected to the drive motor 32, booster pump 24, water supply switch 61, and liquid level gauge 231 is fixed to the support frame 22 of the support portion 2. It should be noted that the controller 7 uses a Siemens PLC controller, which is relatively mature in the prior art.
[0046] Finally, in this embodiment, water collection troughs 8 are excavated on the ground on both sides of the prefabricated box girder 1, extending along its length. Furthermore, a winding drum 213 is installed atop the pedestals 21 on either side of the support portion 2. Specifically, a circular shaft is positioned at the center of the winding drum 213, rotating therewith, with both ends secured to the pedestal 21 via mounting brackets. The drive motor 32 is connected to an external power source via a cable, which is wound around the winding drum 213, allowing the cable to expand and contract.
[0047] The working principle of the device in this embodiment is briefly described below, specifically as follows:
[0048] During the spray maintenance operation, the support unit 2 begins at one end near the water supply pipe 6. The drive motor 32 is activated by the controller 7, which drives the driving wheel 34 to rotate. The driving wheel 34, through the friction between its guide rails 31, drives the entire support unit 2 to move along the length of the precast box girder 1. During the movement, the booster pump 24 is activated by the controller 7. Clean water in the water tank 23 is pumped into the pipeline through the booster pump 24 and sprayed out from the corresponding first and second spray heads 4 and 5. In this way, as the support unit 2 moves along the length of the precast box girder 1, the first and second spray heads 4 and 5 spray the sides and top of the precast box girder 1 at corresponding positions. When the support unit 2 moves to the other end, the limit switch 211 on the support unit 2 base 21 touches the vehicle stop 311 at that end position, triggering the limit switch 211, causing the drive motor 32 to reverse, and the walking unit 3 drives the support unit 2 to move to its initial position. During this process, the first and second spray heads 4 and 5 continue to spray.
[0049] When the base 21 of the support unit 2 moves to the position of the water supply pipe 6, the base 21 contacts the water supply switch 61 (which is a conventional travel switch). This triggers the water supply switch 61 and sends a signal to the controller 7, which then shuts down the drive motor 32 and the booster pump 24. At this point, the support unit 2 stops moving. The water supply pipe 6 then replenishes clean water from an external source into the water tank 23, causing the liquid level in the water tank 23 to rise. It should be noted that the water inlet end of the water supply pipe 6 is connected to the external water source via an external pump, which is also connected to the controller 7. When the liquid level in the water tank 23 rises to the position of the liquid level gauge 231, the liquid level gauge 231 sends a signal to the controller 7, which shuts down the external pump. The water supply pipe 6 no longer replenishes the water tank 23. Simultaneously, the controller 7 activates the drive motor 32 and the booster pump 24, causing the walking unit 3 to drive the support unit 2 to continue moving. Meanwhile, the first and second spray heads 4 and 5 continue spraying and curing. When the travel switch 211 on the pedestal 21 touches the baffle 311 near the end of the water supply pipe 6, the travel switch 211 is triggered and the drive motor 32 reverses again. This process is repeated to achieve continuous multiple spraying maintenance of the prefabricated box girder 1, and compared with manual maintenance, it has a certain degree of full automation.
[0050] Secondly, during the spray curing process, excess water from the spray curing drips onto the ground along the web and top flange of the prefabricated box girder 1. To ensure that a large amount of water does not accumulate in the curing ground area, and to collect the curing water for recycling, this embodiment has a water collecting trough 8 excavated on the ground on both sides of the prefabricated box girder 1, which extends along its length and is located on the inner side of the guide rail 31. The water collecting trough 8 is arranged parallel to the guide rail 31, and a certain slope is set from the center line of the base of the prefabricated box girder 1 to the guide rail 31 to facilitate the spray curing water to flow into the water collecting trough 8. At the same time, the water collecting trough 8 is also set with a certain slope. The curing water can flow to the water storage well according to the action of gravity, and can be recycled and reused after sedimentation and filtration.
[0051] The foregoing descriptions of specific exemplary embodiments of the present invention are for purposes of illustration and description. These descriptions are not intended to limit the present invention to the precise forms disclosed, and it is apparent that many modifications and variations are possible in light of the foregoing teachings. The exemplary embodiments have been selected and described for the purpose of explaining the specific principles of the present invention and their practical application, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to realize and utilize a variety of exemplary embodiments of the present invention and various options and variations.
