Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of coarse aggregate testing and detection devices, specifically relating to an integrated dry and wet cycle device for coarse aggregate robustness testing. Background Technology
[0002] Because the coarse aggregate strength test requires simulating both dry and wet coarse aggregate conditions, two instruments are needed to conduct the test alternately, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, we need to design an integrated dry-wet cycle device for coarse aggregate strength to solve the problems raised in the background technology.
[0004] The present invention relates to an integrated dry-wet cycle device for coarse aggregate strengthening, characterized in that the integrated device includes an oven, a partition, a rotating wheel, a heating component, and a drying component. The oven is a hollow box, the rotating wheel is located inside the oven, and the partition is horizontally installed on the rotating wheel and rotates with the rotating wheel. The partition divides the interior of the oven into upper and lower parts, the upper part being the drying part and the lower part being the soaking part. The drying component is located inside the drying part of the oven, and the heating component is located below the soaking part of the oven.
[0005] The oven is equipped with a feed inlet at the top, and a screen is installed on the rotating wheel directly above the partition. The opening of the screen is covered with a cover.
[0006] The oven has an inlet and an outlet on its lower side wall. The soaking section is filled with a soaking solution, which is a saturated sodium sulfate solution.
[0007] The length of the partition is equal to the internal width of the oven. The partition is used to isolate the temperature and humidity of the upper and lower parts, so as to avoid excessive impact on the experiment.
[0008] This utility model relates to an integrated dry-wet cycle device for coarse aggregate strength testing. The coarse aggregate is fed into the screen through the inlet, and the rotating wheel is started. The temperature of the drying chamber is raised to 130°C for drying, while the soaking section at the bottom is used to soak the coarse aggregate. The two sections are separated by an insulated and moisture-proof partition for conducting dry-wet cycle tests on the coarse aggregate. This device solves the problems of simplified and integrated testing. Attached Figure Description
[0009] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model.
[0010] The components include: 1. Drying section; 2. Soaking section; 3. Rotary wheel; 4. Heating component; 5. Drying component; 6. Baffle plate; 7. Feed inlet; 8. Screen; 9. Liquid inlet; 10. Liquid outlet. Detailed Implementation
[0011] Example 1: A coarse aggregate strengthening and drying integrated wet-dry cycle device includes an oven, a partition, a rotating wheel, a heating component, and a drying component. The oven is a hollow box, 150cm long, 160cm wide, and 60cm high. The rotating wheel is located inside the oven, with a diameter (r) of 50cm. The partition is horizontally mounted on the rotating wheel and rotates with it, with an installation height (h) of 20cm. The partition divides the oven into upper and lower sections: the upper section is for drying, and the lower section is for soaking. The drying component is located in the drying section, and the heating component is located below the soaking section. A feed inlet is located at the top of the oven. A 40cm square screen is mounted on the rotating wheel directly above the partition. The left, right, and bottom screens have 4.75mm square holes, while the other sides are unperforated. The screen openings are covered. An inlet and outlet are located on the lower side wall of the oven. The soaking section is filled with a saturated sodium sulfate solution.
[0012] Place the coarse aggregate into the screen of the rotating wheel through the feed inlet, replace the screen cover, and start the wheel to rotate. When the screen rotates to the soaking section, the coarse aggregate is completely immersed in a saturated sodium sulfate solution. Turn on the heating element and heat the solution to the test temperature of 20℃~25℃. After soaking for 20 hours, turn off the heating element. Rotate the wheel clockwise again to rotate the screen to the drying section, stop rotating, and turn on the drying element. Raise the temperature in the drying section to 100℃~110℃. After drying for 4 hours, one wet-dry cycle test of the coarse aggregate is completed. The second cycle begins, with soaking and drying time of 4 hours each. Repeat the cycle 5 times until the end of the test. Remove the coarse aggregate, and the joint strength test is completed.
[0013] Both the drying and heating components use heating wires connected to the mains power. When the heating wires are energized, they generate high temperatures. The drying component uses the heat to raise the temperature of the drying section, while the heating component raises the temperature of the soaking solution. If necessary, thermocouples can be added to the drying and soaking sections and connected to the drying and heating components to achieve automatic temperature control.
[0014] The entire rotor can be equipped with eight screens, four on the top and four on the bottom, allowing for alternating soaking and drying experiments of two sets of coarse aggregates.
