Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of concrete curing technology, specifically to a concrete curing box. Background Technology

[0002] After concrete is poured, if the climate is hot and the air is dry, and curing is not carried out in a timely manner, the moisture in the concrete will evaporate too quickly, leading to dehydration. This will prevent the cement particles, which have already formed a gel, from fully hydrating and transforming into stable crystals, resulting in insufficient bonding strength. Consequently, flaky or powdery flakes will appear on the concrete surface. Furthermore, premature evaporation of moisture before the concrete has reached sufficient strength can also cause significant shrinkage deformation, leading to drying shrinkage cracks. Therefore, initial curing of concrete after pouring is crucial. Thus, during construction, the quality of concrete needs to be assessed through performance testing, and only after meeting standards can it be officially put into use. For this purpose, concrete curing chambers are used to cure concrete specimens.

[0003] The existing technology disclosed in application number CN202322292419.6 is a concrete curing box. Compared with the traditional technology, this application not only facilitates the placement and removal of the curing board, but also allows the water generated by the curing board to flow into the water collection tank through the drainage holes on both sides during the curing process, thereby reducing water accumulation on the curing board and preventing the bottom of the concrete specimen from being soaked in water, which can effectively improve the curing effect of the concrete specimen.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned patent still has certain drawbacks in use: it facilitates the placement and curing of concrete by using a curing board, but it will cause the side of the concrete that is in contact with the curing board to not be effectively humidified by the atomized water, resulting in uneven moisture levels on the upper and lower surfaces. At this time, not only will the curing area be limited, but the uniformity of curing cannot be well guaranteed, which will affect the overall curing effect and reduce the effectiveness of the device.

[0005] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

[0006] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a concrete curing box that offers advantages such as comprehensive curing, good curing effect, and uniform spraying, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background technology.

[0008] (II) Technical Solution

[0009] To achieve the aforementioned advantages of comprehensive maintenance, good maintenance effect, and uniform spraying, the specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0010] A concrete curing box includes a main body and support legs. A partition is welded to the middle of the interior of the main body. Curing chambers are formed on both sides of the partition inside the main body. Several sets of bearing seats are symmetrically welded to the middle of the two side surfaces of the curing box. Screws and guide rods are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bearing seats on the surface of the curing chambers. A spraying plate is sleeved on the outer periphery of the screws and guide rods. A protective sleeve is fitted on one side of the spraying plate on the outer periphery of the screws, and the two ends of the protective sleeve are fixed to the surface of the spraying plate and the surface of the curing chamber, respectively. Several sets of atomizing nozzles are evenly installed on the surface of the spraying plate. One end of the screw passes through one side of the main body of the curing box and is connected to a motor.

[0011] Furthermore, water tanks are symmetrically installed on both sides of the top of the maintenance box body. One end of each water tank is connected to a water pump via a pipe, and the water pump is connected to a spray plate via a water supply pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, a water inlet pipe is installed on one side of the top of the water tank.

[0013] Furthermore, drainage grooves are provided at the top of the partition and at the bottom of the main body of the maintenance box, with one end of the drainage groove penetrating through one side of the main body of the maintenance box and connected to a drainage pipe.

[0014] Furthermore, support legs are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bottom of the maintenance box body.

[0015] Furthermore, both the protective sleeve and the water supply pipe are made of flexible material.

[0016] Furthermore, a limiting groove is provided at the top of the support seat.

[0017] Furthermore, the size of the drainage trough is larger than the size of the spray plate.

[0018] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a concrete curing box, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] This invention utilizes a spray plate and a lead screw. During operation, the rotation of the lead screw drives the spray plate to move back and forth, allowing the atomizing nozzles on its surface to apply water to different areas of the concrete specimen. The spray plate is positioned on both the top and bottom sides of the concrete specimen, enabling simultaneous water application to both sides and avoiding dead zones caused by contact between the bottom and the surface. This not only effectively expands the overall water application area and improves the water application effect, but also ensures more uniform spraying of the atomized water, guaranteeing that different areas are treated and ensuring the quality of the device. It offers advantages such as comprehensive curing, good curing effect, and uniform spraying. Attached Figure Description

With reference to these contents, those skilled in the art should be able to understand other possible implementation methods and the advantages of the present invention. The components in the figures are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are usually used to represent similar components.

[0029] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a concrete curing box is provided.

[0030] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, such as... Figure 1-4As shown, a concrete curing box according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a curing box body 1 and support legs 16. A partition 5 is welded to the middle of the interior of the curing box body 1. Curing chambers 2 are opened on both sides of the partition 5 inside the curing box body 1. Several sets of bearing seats 7 are symmetrically welded to the middle of the two side surfaces of the curing box. Screw rods 10 and guide rods 4 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bearing seats 7 on the surface of the curing chambers 2. Spraying plates 6 are sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw rods 10 and guide rods 4. A protective sleeve 18 is sleeved on one side of the spraying plate 6 on the outer periphery of the screw rods 10, and the two ends of the protective sleeve 18 are fixed to the surface of the spraying plate 6 and the surface of the curing chambers 2, respectively. Several sets of atomizing nozzles 9 are evenly installed on the surface of the spraying plate 6. One end of the screw rod 10 passes through one side of the curing box body 1 and is connected to a motor 14.

[0031] In one embodiment, water tanks 11 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the top of the maintenance box body 1. One end of the water tank 11 is connected to the water pump 12 through a pipe. The water pump 12 is connected to the spray plate 6 through the water supply pipe 8. The water tank 11 is set up to store water for subsequent use.

[0032] In one embodiment, a water inlet pipe 13 is installed on one side of the top of the water tank 11. The water inlet pipe 13 is provided to facilitate the addition of water for maintenance, which is convenient for subsequent maintenance operations.

[0033] In one embodiment, drainage grooves 17 are provided at the top of the partition 5 and at the bottom of the interior of the maintenance box body 1. One end of the drainage groove 17 passes through one side of the maintenance box body 1 and is connected to the drainage pipe 15. The drainage pipe 15 is provided to drain excess water and prevent water accumulation.

[0034] In one embodiment, support legs 16 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bottom of the maintenance box body 1, which can support and fix the device.

[0035] In one embodiment, both the protective sleeve 18 and the water supply pipe 8 are made of flexible material, such as flexible water pipe, which is mainly used to ensure that the water source can be smoothly delivered and the lead screw 10 can be smoothly covered and protected when the spray plate 6 moves.

[0036] In one embodiment, a limiting groove 3 is provided at the top of the bearing seat 7. The limiting groove 3 is provided to limit the position of the concrete test block being supported, so as to ensure stability during curing.

[0037] In one embodiment, the size of the drainage trough 17 is larger than the size of the spray plate 6. The size of the drainage trough 17 is set to ensure that the unused atomized water sprayed from the atomizing nozzles 9 on the surface of the spray plate 6 can be fully collected, thereby facilitating subsequent drainage treatment.

[0038] Working principle: In actual use, personnel can place the concrete specimens to be cured onto the bearing seats 7 inside the curing chamber 2. The limiting grooves 3 above the multiple bearing seats 7 can limit the movement of the concrete specimens, ensuring they do not move during curing. Then, the motor 14 drives the lead screw 10 to rotate. The lead screw 10 is covered by a protective sleeve 18, which is made of a retractable material. This effectively prevents the atomized water spray from affecting the lead screw 10, ensuring its long-term use. When in motion, the spray plate 6 can move back and forth, allowing the atomizing nozzles 9 on its surface to apply water to different areas of the concrete specimen. Since the spray plate 6 is positioned on both the upper and lower sides of the concrete specimen, it can apply water to both sides of the concrete at once, avoiding dead zones caused by contact between the bottom and the surface. This not only effectively expands the overall water application area and improves the water application effect, but also makes the atomized water spray more even, ensuring that different areas are treated and guaranteeing the quality of the device. The device as a whole has the advantages of comprehensive curing, good curing effect, and even spraying.
