Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building construction technology, and in particular to a brick-moistening device. Background Technology
[0002] Blocks are building materials that are larger than clay bricks. Their raw materials are widely available, can be sourced locally, and are inexpensive. Blocks are commonly used in building walls and are one of the most frequently used materials in construction.
[0003] At construction sites, workers typically stack the blocks and retrieve them when needed. In the sweltering summer heat, the sun's rays cause the blocks to heat up, necessitating water spraying to cool them and promote curing. Currently, the common method for watering the blocks is as follows: one worker holds a water hose while another controls the water supply. Water is then sprayed onto the blocks on the support, and the dampness is checked after a few minutes. It's crucial to ensure even watering on all surfaces of the blocks. Due to the large area of the stacked blocks, workers must continuously move around the area to continue watering.
[0004] While traditional manual watering can cool masonry blocks, it still has the following drawbacks in practice: Using water hoses to manually wet the blocks results in uncontrollable water flow, leading to excessive water accumulation on the ground, wasting water, and posing a safety hazard, especially in the hot summer months, as it increases the risk of heatstroke for workers. Furthermore, manual watering is prone to uneven wetting of the blocks; when the blocks are too wet, they cannot absorb moisture from the mortar during construction, causing water seepage into the wall and preventing the wall from developing structural strength in the short term, significantly reducing work efficiency; when the blocks are too dry, the mortar strength is insufficient, requiring rework, greatly increasing costs and resulting in low economic benefits. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the problems of uncontrollable water output, uneven watering, and low work efficiency associated with manual watering, this utility model provides a brick-wetting device. This device is rationally designed, simple in structure, and easy to use. It eliminates the need for manual hand-held watering and ensures even watering, effectively improving work efficiency and reducing rework rates. It offers good economic benefits and is suitable for widespread application.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a brick-moistening device, including a supporting frame, a plurality of connecting beams spaced apart at the top of the inner side of the supporting frame, an annular connecting frame located below the connecting beams inside the supporting frame, and a spaced interval between the connecting beams and the annular connecting frame; a plurality of downward-facing nozzles A spaced apart on the connecting beams, and a plurality of upward-facing nozzles B spaced apart on the annular connecting frame, with the nozzles B inclined toward the axis of the annular connecting frame; a water supply pipe for connecting to a water source is arranged at the top of the supporting frame, the water supply pipe is connected to the nozzles A and B, and an electromagnetic valve is provided at the water inlet end of the water supply pipe; a power switch is provided on the supporting frame, and the power switch is electrically connected to the electromagnetic valve; the bottom of the supporting frame is an open structure, and door-shaped openings located below the annular connecting frame are respectively opened on the left and right sides of the supporting frame.
[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the support frame is equipped with casters, and handrails are provided on both sides of the door-shaped opening.
[0008] Preferably, a sealing plate is provided on the top periphery of the support frame, the water supply pipe is fixed to the inside of the sealing plate, and the water inlet end of the water supply pipe is folded to the outside of the sealing plate. The solenoid valve, power switch and handrail are all fixed to the outside of the sealing plate.
[0009] Preferably, the power switch is provided with a protective housing fixed to the outside of the sealing plate.
[0010] Preferably, both nozzle A and nozzle B are fan-shaped nozzles, and the power switch is a time-controlled electronic switch.
[0011] Preferably, there are two connecting beams, which are parallel and symmetrical on both sides of the axis of the annular connecting frame.
[0012] Preferably, the support frame is a cuboid frame, and the top and bottom sides of the support frame are both squares, and the diameter of the annular connecting frame is adapted to the inner length of the support frame.
[0013] Preferably, the front and rear sides of the support frame are respectively provided with cross support rods located below the annular connecting frame.
[0014] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: The device has a reasonable design and simple structure.

This ensures the moisture content of the masonry and the strength of the masonry mortar, improving the quality of finished products after later repairs and reducing the rework rate.

[0021] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specific embodiments. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this patent, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this patent.
[0022] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1-4The following is a description of a specific embodiment: The brick-lubricating device of this utility model includes a support frame 1. The support frame 1 is a cuboid frame welded from 40mm*40mm*4m galvanized angle iron, and both the top and bottom sides of the support frame 1 are square. It should be noted that the specific dimensions of the support frame 1 can be designed according to the actual dimensions of the brick stack, so that the support frame 1 can completely cover the brick stack.
[0023] Two connecting beams 2 are spaced apart at the top inner part of the support frame 1. An annular connecting frame 3 is located below the connecting beams 2 inside the support frame 1, with a space between the connecting beams 2 and the annular connecting frame 3. The diameter of the annular connecting frame 3 is adapted to the inner length of the support frame 1, and the two connecting beams 2 are parallel and symmetrical on both sides of the axis of the annular connecting frame 3. It should be noted that the specific space between the connecting beams 2 and the annular connecting frame 3 can be designed according to the actual height of the brick stack, ensuring that the annular connecting frame 3 is located above and around the brick stack.
[0024] A number of downward-facing nozzles A4 are evenly spaced on the connecting beam 2, and a number of upward-facing nozzles B5 are evenly spaced on the annular connecting frame 3, with the nozzles B5 inclined towards the axis of the annular connecting frame 3. A water supply pipe 6 for connecting to a water source is arranged at the top of the support frame 1. The water supply pipe 6 is connected to the nozzles A4 and B5, and a solenoid valve 7 is installed at the inlet end of the water supply pipe 6. A power switch 8 is installed on the support frame 1, and the power switch 8 is electrically connected to the solenoid valve 7. It should be noted that both nozzles A4 and B5 are fan-shaped nozzles, and the power switch 8 is a time-controlled electronic switch.
[0025] The bottom of the support frame 1 is an open structure, and door-shaped openings are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the support frame 1 below the annular connecting frame 3. The bottom of the support frame 1 is equipped with casters 10, and handrails 11 are provided on both sides of the door-shaped openings. Workers can move the support frame 1, i.e., this device, laterally to the brick stack position through the door-shaped openings; during the movement, workers can directly push the device using the casters 10, or directly lift the device using the handrails 11, making it very flexible and practical.
[0026] Specifically, a sealing plate 12 is provided on the top periphery of the support frame 1. The water supply pipe 6 is fixed to the inner side of the sealing plate 12, and the water inlet end of the water supply pipe 6 is folded to the outer side of the sealing plate 12. The solenoid valve 7, the power switch 8, and the handrail 11 are all fixed to the outer side of the sealing plate 12. Through the design of the sealing plate 12, not only can the sturdiness of the support frame, that is, the sturdiness of this device, be greatly improved, but it can also facilitate the assembly of components such as the water supply pipe 6, the solenoid valve 7, the power switch 8, and the handrail 11.
[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Workers first move the device to the brick stack location using the casters 10 or the handle 11, and check if it is centered. After determining the position, the device can completely cover the brick stack, so that the connecting beam 2 is positioned above the brick stack, nozzle A4 is used to spray the top side of the brick stack, and the annular connecting frame 3 is placed around the outside of the brick stack. Nozzle B5 faces the top of the brick stack and is used to spray the outside of the brick stack. Then, the worker connects the water and power supply and adjusts the power switch 8 to the desired operating time. The power switch 8 controls the solenoid valve 7, thereby controlling the spraying time of nozzles A4 and B5, i.e., controlling the water volume of nozzles A4 and B5, thus ensuring that the moisture content of the masonry meets the specifications. The water usage can be determined through multiple experiments and calculations. Workers can start the spraying operation by turning on the power switch 8, checking the nozzle operation during the operation until finally stopping. After the spraying operation on this brick pile is completed, the staff will disconnect the water and power supply and move the device to the next brick pile. Then, the above operating procedures will be repeated to carry out a new round of spraying operations.
[0028] In one embodiment, a protective housing 9 is provided around the power switch 8 and fixed to the outside of the sealing plate 12. The design of the protective housing 9 serves to protect the power switch 8 and extend its service life.
[0029] In one embodiment, cross support rods 13 are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the support frame 1, located below the annular connecting frame 3. The design of the cross support rods 13 can effectively improve the structural strength of the support frame 1, that is, the structural strength of the device.
