Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of road material recycling technology, specifically to a high-volume intermittent plant-mixed hot recycling system for asphalt pavement milling material. Background Technology
[0002] With the increase in highway construction and maintenance projects, a large amount of rough asphalt pavement (RAP) is generated. Recycling RAP can reduce costs, increase efficiency, and reduce pollution. Traditional RAP recycling methods (such as direct backfilling, hot recycling, and cold recycling) have many problems. The RAP particles are uneven in size and contain a lot of impurities and dust, which affects the quality of recycled aggregate and the quality of newly laid asphalt mixture.
[0003] Existing processing equipment has limited functionality and cannot meet the demand. Traditional vibrating screens are ineffective at screening fine particles and easily generate dust; single-stage magnetic separators cannot remove non-magnetic impurities; and ordinary air separators are greatly affected by the moisture content and particle shape of the material.
[0004] Intermittent plant-mixed hot recycling technology also faces challenges in recycling high-dosage RAP. Traditional single-drum heating easily leads to uneven heating of RAP, localized overheating and aging, and the volatilization of lightweight components polluting the environment. A single heat source results in long heating times, high energy consumption, and low efficiency. The different heating methods for new aggregates and RAP affect the uniformity of the mixture and the quality of construction. Therefore, a new recycling system is urgently needed to solve these problems.
[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention proposes a high-volume intermittent plant-mixed hot recycling system for asphalt pavement milling aggregate, featuring dual-drum heating, flue gas recovery, and intelligent temperature control. This system aims to improve the heating uniformity of the recycled material, reduce pollutant emissions, enhance thermal energy utilization efficiency, and ensure the quality stability of the final mixture.

[0013] The recycling drum uses indirect heating and is equipped with thermal resistance steel, V-shaped wing plates, and adjustable wing plates to ensure that the milled material is heated evenly. A temperature sensor is installed on the right end to detect the material temperature.
[0014] The flue gas settling chamber, located below the regeneration drum, is used to collect and treat high-temperature waste gas. It is equipped with a condenser dust collector to further purify the flue gas.
[0015] The induced draft fan, located below the flue gas settling chamber, is used to circulate the flue gas and ultimately discharge it through the exhaust chimney;
[0016] The temporary storage bin for recycled materials is connected to the right side of the recycling drum and is used to store heated recycled materials.
[0017] The metering hopper, connected to the lower part of the temporary storage silo for recycled materials, is used to precisely control the feeding ratio of new aggregate, RAP, recycling agent and new asphalt;
[0018] The mixing chamber is equipped with twin-shaft mixing arms to uniformly mix the metered recycled material, new aggregate, and recycling agent to ultimately form recycled asphalt mixture.
[0019] Furthermore, the combustion chamber is equipped with an ignition protection door.

[0021] Furthermore, the adjustable blades of the regenerating drum can be angled to ensure uniform heating of RAP particles of different sizes.
[0022] Furthermore, the mixing chamber employs a high-efficiency twin-shaft mixing arm to improve the uniformity and workability of the recycled mixture.
[0023] Furthermore, a temperature sensor is installed inside the recycling drum.
[0024] Furthermore, saw gears are arranged at the front and rear of the regeneration drum body, and a drive motor is arranged at the bottom to make the regeneration drum rotate and heat up.

The recycled cold aggregate bin 1 is located at the bottom left and is used to store the milled aggregate. The belt conveyor 2 is connected to the right side of the recycled cold aggregate bin 1, conveying the material to the recycled aggregate elevator 3. The recycled aggregate elevator 3 is vertically arranged at the right end of the belt conveyor 2, lifting the milled aggregate to a higher position to enter the recycling drum 7. The combustion chamber 4 is located to the left of the new aggregate heating drum 6, with a new aggregate inlet 5 at the top and an ignition protection door 16 at the front. The new aggregate heating drum 6 is connected to the recycling drum 7 on its right side. The new aggregate and asphalt milling material are mixed and heated in the recycling drum 7. The recycling drum 7 is equipped with thermal resistance steel 18, V-shaped wing plates 17, and adjusting wing plates 19 to ensure that the milling material is heated evenly. A temperature sensor 20 is installed at the right end of the recycling drum 7 to detect the material temperature and ensure temperature stability.
[0037] The recycling drum 7 is equipped with saw gears 21 at the front and rear, and a drive motor 22 is located below the saw gears 21 to rotate and heat the recycling drum 7. A flue gas settling chamber 15 is located below the recycling drum 7 to collect and treat high-temperature exhaust gas. A condenser dust collector 14 is installed inside the flue gas settling chamber 15 to further purify the flue gas. An induced draft fan 13 is located below the flue gas settling chamber 15 to circulate the flue gas, which is ultimately discharged through the lower exhaust chimney. A temporary storage bin 8 for recycled materials is connected to the right side of the recycling drum 7, and a metering hopper 9 is connected to the lower part of the temporary storage bin 8. A mixing bin 11 is connected below the metering hopper 9, and a dual-shaft mixing arm 10 is installed inside the mixing bin 11 to uniformly mix the metered recycled material, new aggregate, and recycling agent to ultimately form recycled asphalt mixture.
[0038] Specifically, the combustion chamber 4 is equipped with an ignition protection door 16 to improve ignition safety. The flue gas settling chamber 15 adopts a negative pressure air duct structure, which can effectively reduce smoke and dust emissions and improve environmental performance. The adjustable wing plates 19 of the regeneration drum 7 can be adjusted to ensure uniform heating of RAP particles of different sizes.

[0040] The operating procedures for a high-content intermittent hot recycling system for asphalt pavement milling aggregate are as follows:
[0041] Asphalt milling material is stored in the recycled cold aggregate bin 1 and conveyed to the recycled material elevator 3 via belt conveyor 2. The recycled material elevator 3 conveys the material to the recycled drum 7 for heating. One end of the recycled drum 7 is connected to the combustion chamber 4, which is equipped with an ignition protection door 16. The upper part of the new aggregate heating drum 6 is equipped with a new aggregate inlet 5. The high-temperature airflow generated by combustion in the combustion chamber 4 enters the recycled drum 7 and passes through the thermal resistance steel 18, V-shaped wing plate 17, and adjusting wing plate 19 to ensure that the milling material is heated evenly to reach the required temperature. The outlet of the recycled drum 7 is equipped with a temperature sensor 20 to monitor the material temperature and ensure temperature stability. The body of the recycled drum 7 is equipped with a saw gear 21, and the bottom drive motor 22 provides power. The recycled drum is connected to the rollers via trunnion 23. The drive motor 22 rotates the drum along the horizontal axis through the saw gear 21 to ensure uniform internal heating.
[0042] During the heating process, the exhaust gas is collected by the flue gas settling chamber 15, further purified by the condenser dust collector 14, and discharged to the exhaust chimney 12 by the induced draft fan 13, reducing pollutant emissions. The heated milled material enters the temporary storage bin 8 for recycled materials, and then enters the mixing system in proportion through the metering hopper 9 to mix with new aggregates, recycling agents and other additives. The mixing bin 11 uses a twin-shaft mixing arm 10 to improve uniformity.
