Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of concrete production equipment technology, and more specifically, to a support platform for mortar tanks. Background Technology
[0002] In the construction industry, mortar tanks, serving as temporary storage devices after concrete mixing, are often placed around individual buildings to facilitate plastering operations. To improve the efficiency of workers receiving materials from wheelbarrows, the height of the tank's discharge port must match the wheelbarrow's height, and its bottom supports must distribute the load through a foundation platform. Currently, brick masonry or cast-in-place concrete foundations are commonly used as supporting structures: the former is formed by layering small-sized bricks and mortar, while the latter uses a plain concrete monolithic casting process. For both types of foundations, the platform elevation is determined based on the wheelbarrow's height, and the foundation width is only slightly larger than the tank's support leg dimensions to meet static balance requirements.
[0003] However, this approach has limitations. First, the foundation structure forms a rigid connection with the ground, losing its positional adjustment capability after construction. As the project progresses and the work area extends, the transport radius of the dump truck increases, and the original foundation location gradually deviates from the optimal material receiving area. However, the fixed foundation cannot adjust its displacement according to the construction progress. Second, after project completion, the foundation needs to be demolished manually. The mechanical demolition of brickwork and concrete generates a large amount of construction waste, with a material recycling rate of less than 5%, resulting in resource waste and increased cleanup costs. In addition, the traditional foundation construction cycle is long, directly affecting the equipment installation schedule. Therefore, how to construct a support platform that is portable, reusable, and easy to construct has become an urgent problem to be solved in optimizing the design of mortar tank foundations. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above deficiencies, this utility model provides a support platform for mortar tanks to solve the aforementioned problems.
[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows:
[0006] A support platform for a mortar tank includes a fixed base, which is welded from several square tubes, with a square frame at one end. The four corners of the square frame are extended arms extending outwards. The ends of the extended arms are provided with mounting cylinders, and the mounting cylinders are provided with downward-extending support legs. The top of the fixed base is provided with a diagonal bracing assembly, which includes a horizontal limiting rod provided at the top of the extended arm. A diagonal bracing rod is provided between the horizontal limiting rod and the ground.
[0007] In an embodiment of this utility model, a first docking plate is provided at the top of the extension arm, and L-shaped clamping plates are fixedly provided on both sides of the bottom of the first docking plate. The two L-shaped clamping plates clamp the two sides of the extension arm. The top of the extension arm and the first docking plate are both provided with threaded holes of the same diameter. The first docking plate is fixed to the extension arm by bolts.
[0008] In an embodiment of this utility model, the extension arm has a plurality of threaded holes, which are arranged in a linearly equal manner.
[0009] In an embodiment of this utility model, the support leg is a telescopic structure with adjustable length, including an outer support cylinder and an inner support rod. The outer side wall of the outer support cylinder is provided with a plurality of first pin holes linearly and equally spaced from the top side. The outer support cylinder is inserted into the mounting cylinder. A first pin is provided between the outer support cylinder and the mounting cylinder. The first pin passes through the outer side wall of the mounting cylinder near the bottom and passes through one of the first pin holes. The inner support rod is threaded to the bottom side of the outer support cylinder, and a support plate is provided at the bottom of the inner support rod.
[0010] In an embodiment of this utility model, a second docking plate is provided at the bottom of the horizontal limiting rod, and the second docking plate is fixed to the first docking plate by bolts.
[0011] In an embodiment of this utility model, the diagonal brace is an adjustable telescopic structure, including an outer diagonal brace and an inner diagonal brace slidably disposed inside the outer diagonal brace, and a length adjustment valve is located on the outer side of the outer diagonal brace near the top.
[0012] In an embodiment of this utility model, the length regulating valve includes a housing, a pipe clamping part is provided on one side of the housing, which clamps and fixes to the outer side wall of the supporting outer cylinder, and a positioning screw is provided on the side of the housing away from the pipe clamping part. When the positioning screw is rotated toward the supporting inner rod, it forms an abutment and fixation with the outer side wall of the supporting inner rod.
[0013] In an embodiment of this utility model, the diagonal brace assembly further includes three pipe clamps of the same size, namely a first pipe clamp, a second pipe clamp, and a third pipe clamp. One side of the first pipe clamp is fixed to the horizontal limiting rod near the top, and the other end is hinged to the top of the inner rod of the diagonal brace. One side of the second pipe clamp is fixed to the horizontal limiting rod near the bottom, and one side of the third pipe clamp is fixed to the outer rod of the diagonal brace near the top. A movable arm is hinged between the second pipe clamp and the third pipe clamp.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Based on the synergistic effect of a three-section adjustment system and a composite support structure, the fixed base is first erected on the ground. The support is adjusted using two-section telescopic support legs inside the installation cylinder. Leveling of the fixed base is achieved using a leveling tool. Then, a sliding docking plate is installed on the extension arm. The installation position of the horizontal limit rod is adjusted according to the outer diameter of the mortar tank to form an adaptive clamping space. Finally, the diagonal bracing assembly is deployed. The extension and retraction of the outer and inner diagonal bracing rods are locked using a length adjustment valve. Combined with a pipe clamp hinge mechanism, a triangular stable structure is formed, achieving radial constraint of the horizontal limit rod. The entire system is quickly assembled and disassembled via bolt connections. Compared to existing foundation platforms, this modular design allows for complete disassembly and transport of the platform, avoiding material loss caused by foundation platform demolition. It solves the technical pain points of existing fixed foundations, such as the inability to relocate and significant material waste, and is particularly suitable for high-rise building construction scenarios requiring frequent work surface relocation.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0022] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a support platform for mortar tanks, including a fixed base 10, which is welded from several square tubes. A square frame 11 is located at one of the square frames 11, with outwardly extending extension arms 12 at each of the four corners. Each extension arm 12 has a mounting cylinder 13 at its end, and a downwardly extending support leg 20 is installed inside the mounting cylinder 13. A diagonal bracing assembly 30 is located at the top of the fixed base 10. The diagonal bracing assembly 30 includes a horizontal limiting rod 31 located at the top of the extension arm 12, and a diagonal bracing rod 32 positioned between the horizontal limiting rod 31 and the ground. When assembling the support platform on the ground, the mortar tank is hoisted above the support platform. The bottom of the mortar tank is embedded in the square frame 11, and the four legs of the mortar tank are suspended on the support platform. The horizontal limiting rods 31 around the perimeter support and limit the outer wall of the mortar tank. The height of the four bottom supporting legs 20 is further adjusted to provide a horizontal working environment for the mortar tank. Finally, the diagonal bracing rods 32 enhance the horizontal stability of the mortar tank. The support platform is easy and labor-saving to build, and it also has the ability to be transported and used, avoiding the limitations of the basic platform in the prior art.
[0024] As a preferred embodiment, a sponge layer is wrapped around the outside of the square frame 11. In order to reduce the impact on the square frame 11 during the hoisting of the mortar tank and cause different degrees of deformation, the sponge layer provides cushioning and plays a protective role.
[0025] like Figure 2As shown, the top of the extension arm 12 is provided with a first docking plate 1201, and L-shaped clamps are fixedly provided on both sides of the bottom of the first docking plate 1201. The two L-shaped clamps clamp the two sides of the extension arm 12. The top of the extension arm 12 and the first docking plate 1201 are both provided with threaded holes of the same diameter. The first docking plate 1201 is fixed to the extension arm 12 by bolts.
[0026] In one embodiment, the first docking plate 1201 is disposed at a fixed position at the top of the extension arm 12.
[0027] In another embodiment, the extension arm 12 has several threaded holes arranged linearly and equally. The specific horizontal limiting rod 31 can be adjusted according to the size of the mortar tank. That is, the larger the size of the mortar tank, the more the first docking plate 1201 is fixed away from the direction frame, and vice versa. This method is more flexible and has a wider range of adaptability.
[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the support leg 20 is a telescopic structure with adjustable length, including an outer support cylinder 21 and an inner support rod 22. The outer wall of the outer support cylinder 21 is linearly and equally divided with several first pin holes 2101 from the top side. The outer support cylinder 21 is inserted into the mounting cylinder 13. A first pin 1301 is provided between the outer support cylinder 21 and the mounting cylinder 13. The first pin 1301 passes through the outer wall of the mounting cylinder 13 near the bottom and passes through one of the first pin holes 2101. The inner support rod 22 is threaded to the bottom side of the outer support cylinder 21. A support plate 2201 is provided at the bottom of the inner support rod 22. Specifically, the position of the outer support cylinder 21 in the mounting cylinder 13 is adjusted by fixing the first pin 1301 to the first pin holes 2101. The inner support rod 22 is then extended and retracted by rotating the thread. The adjustment of the four support legs 20 ensures that the fixed base 10 remains horizontal.
[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the support plate 2201 is welded with several steel bars. When used in areas where no cement is poured, these steel bars can be inserted into the ground to increase stability and ensure stability when installing the mortar tank.
[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, a second docking plate 3101 is provided at the bottom of the horizontal limiting rod 31, and the second docking plate 3101 is fixed to the first docking plate 1201 by bolts.
[0031] Furthermore, the diagonal brace 32 is an adjustable telescopic structure, including an outer diagonal brace 3201 and an inner diagonal brace 3202 slidably disposed inside the outer diagonal brace 3201, and a length adjustment valve 3203 on the outer side of the outer diagonal brace 3201 near the top.
[0032] In this embodiment, the length regulating valve 3203 includes a housing 32031. A pipe clamping part is provided on one side of the housing 32031, which is clamped and fixed on the outer wall of the supporting outer cylinder 21. A positioning screw 32032 is provided on the side of the housing 32031 away from the pipe clamping part. When the positioning screw 32032 is rotated toward the supporting inner rod 22, it forms an abutment and fixation with the outer wall of the supporting inner rod 22.
[0033] In this embodiment, the diagonal bracing assembly 30 also includes three pipe clamps of the same size, namely a first pipe clamp 34, a second pipe clamp 35, and a third pipe clamp 36. One side of the first pipe clamp 34 is fixed to the horizontal limiting rod 31 near the top, and the other end is hinged to the top of the inner rod 3202 of the diagonal bracing. One side of the second pipe clamp 35 is fixed to the horizontal limiting rod 31 near the bottom, and one side of the third pipe clamp 36 is fixed to the outer rod 3201 of the diagonal bracing near the top. A movable arm 33 is hinged between the second pipe clamp 35 and the third pipe clamp 36, that is, the horizontal limiting rod 31 is radially fixed by the diagonal bracing rod 32, and the whole assembly achieves horizontal fixation of the mortar tank.
[0034] Specifically, the working principle of this support platform for mortar tanks is as follows: When in use, the support platform is assembled at the target location. First, a fixed base 10 is erected on the ground. The height of the support legs 20 in the mounting cylinder 13 is adjusted, and the inner support rod 22 is further adjusted. Through two-stage adjustment, the fixed base 10 is ensured to be in a horizontal state. Next, a first connecting plate 1201 and a horizontal limiting rod 31 are installed on the extension arm 12. Simultaneously, diagonal bracing rods 32 are supported along the extension line of the extension arm 12. The diagonal bracing rods 32 and the horizontal limiting rods 31 are connected and fixed through Sangge pipe clamps and movable walls, forming a structure at the top of the fixed base 10 that ensures horizontal fixation. The mortar tank is then hoisted above the support platform, its bottom embedded in the directional frame, and its surroundings are abutted by the aforementioned horizontal limiting rods 31, achieving fixation. This solves the problems of existing foundation platforms being unreusable, cumbersome and time-consuming to construct, and lacking relocation capability.
[0035] The present invention has been further described above with reference to specific embodiments. However, it should be understood that the specific description herein should not be construed as limiting the substance and scope of the present invention. Various modifications made by those skilled in the art to the above embodiments after reading this specification are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
