Abstract

The concrete production line added with the chopped fibers comprises a concrete stirring device and further comprises a powder stirring tank, the powder stirring tank is used for mixing cement powder and the chopped fibers, and the discharging end of the powder stirring tank is connected to the feeding end of the concrete stirring device. According to the concrete production line added with the chopped fibers, the powder stirring tank is creatively arranged, the chopped fibers and cement powder are fully mixed firstly, and the procedure that the chopped fibers are directly input into a concrete stirring device in the traditional process is changed. As the cement powder has certain adhesion and fluidity, the chopped fibers can move along with the cement ash in the powder stirring tank, and the problem that the chopped fibers are difficult to be fully mixed with the stone due to light weight and smooth surface is avoided. Compared with the traditional mode of directly adding the fibers into the concrete stirring device, the dispersion uniformity of the chopped fibers in the concrete is greatly improved, so that the fibers are more uniformly distributed in the concrete.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of concrete production technology, and in particular to a concrete production line with added short-cut fibers. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of concrete technology, new fibers are often added to concrete raw materials to improve the strength and performance of concrete, such as basalt fiber and carbon fiber. The dispersibility of these fibers in concrete is a technical challenge. Taking carbon fiber as an example, its large aspect ratio and smooth surface make it prone to entanglement and agglomeration during concrete mixing. If it cannot be well dispersed, it will cause uneven fiber distribution within the concrete, leading to localized stress concentration when the concrete is under tension, thus failing to fully utilize the fiber's role in enhancing the concrete's toughness. Current technologies use fiber shortening to prevent entanglement, but during mixing, its relatively light weight and smooth surface make it difficult to fully mix with aggregates, especially with traditional additive methods where the fiber material falls to a single point, making uniform mixing even more difficult, and the situation worsens after adding water. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a concrete production line that adds short-cut fibers, which can mix the short-cut fibers by impact and make them evenly distributed in the concrete.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a concrete production line with added short-cut fibers, including a concrete mixing device and a powder mixing tank. The powder mixing tank is used to mix cement powder and short-cut fibers, and the discharge end of the powder mixing tank is connected to the feed end of the concrete mixing device.

[0005] Preferably, the discharge end of the cement silo is connected to one inlet of the powder mixing tank via a first screw conveyor, and the discharge end of the chopped fiber silo is connected to the other inlet of the powder mixing tank via a second screw conveyor.

[0006] Preferably, the discharge end of the powder mixing tank is connected to the concrete mixing device via a third spiral conveyor.

[0007] Preferably, the concrete mixing device is also connected to the crushed stone inlet.

[0008] Preferably, the crushed stone inlet has a funnel-shaped structure, and the conveyor belt transports materials into the crushed stone inlet.

[0009] Preferably, the concrete mixing device is also connected to a water inlet pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the concrete mixing device is provided with an auxiliary material addition port.

[0011] This invention provides a concrete production line with added chopped fibers. It innovatively incorporates a powder mixing tank where the chopped fibers are first thoroughly mixed with cement powder, changing the traditional process of directly feeding the chopped fibers into the concrete mixing device. Because cement powder has a certain degree of adhesion and fluidity, the chopped fibers can move with the cement ash in the mixing tank, avoiding the problem of difficulty in fully mixing with aggregates due to their light weight and smooth surface. Compared to the traditional method of directly adding fibers to the concrete mixing device, this significantly improves the uniformity of fiber dispersion in the concrete, resulting in a more even distribution of fibers within the concrete. This allows for a more even distribution of stress when the concrete is under tension, avoiding localized stress concentration. Thus, the fiber's role in enhancing the toughness of the concrete is fully utilized, effectively improving the strength and overall performance of the concrete, enhancing the stability of concrete performance, and meeting the performance requirements of more complex engineering projects.

The first and second screw conveyors are respectively connected to different inlets of the powder mixing tank. The screw conveyors can precisely control the material conveying volume and speed, ensuring that cement powder and chopped fibers enter the powder mixing tank stably according to a set ratio, achieving uniform mixing and providing a guarantee for the subsequent production of high-quality concrete.

[0016] Preferably, the discharge end of the powder mixing tank 2 is connected to the concrete mixing device 1 via a third spiral conveyor 7.
