Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of auxiliary equipment for concrete wind turbine tower pouring, and specifically relates to a multi-point pouring material distribution device for concrete wind turbine towers. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of wind power generation, the demand for concrete towers will continue to increase. Concrete tower mold design typically considers the need for prestressed steel reinforcement, incorporating multiple vertical corrugated pipes within the tower. Due to the constraints of the reinforcing cage, it is difficult to insert the discharge pipe to the pouring surface, and the numerous transverse reinforcing bars, coupled with the obstruction of the corrugated pipes, further hinder the movement of the discharge pipe. Even when pouring at the top, it is difficult to align the discharge pipe with the pouring opening, so pouring is usually done at a single point, followed by compaction with a tamper. The numerous corrugated pipes within the tower increase the flow resistance of the concrete, making it difficult for the concrete to flow to other locations. Pouring at a single point results in a high material flow rate, and the high-speed descent of the concrete introduces a large amount of air, causing surface quality issues with the segments. Furthermore, during concrete flow, steel fibers align with the flow direction, resulting in a higher number of horizontal steel fibers and a decrease in the axial tensile strength of the tower concrete. Because of the significant transverse flow of concrete within the mold, manual acceleration is required, leading to high labor intensity, frequent interruptions in pouring due to material accumulation, and low production efficiency.

[0003] Current casting methods cannot guarantee the quality of the tower, necessitating multi-point uniform casting. However, achieving multi-point uniform casting is practically difficult. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-point pouring material distributor for concrete wind turbine towers, which simultaneously distributes concrete to different locations to achieve uniform pouring at multiple points.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a multi-point pouring material distribution device for concrete wind turbine towers, comprising:

[0006] The material distribution trough is divided into an inner ring section and an outer ring section surrounding the outer periphery of the inner ring section. The outer ring section has several discharge ports that are vertically or laterally open.

[0007] The bracket has its upper end fixed to the bottom surface of the material distribution trough and located on the lower end surface of the inner ring portion;

[0008] The feeding pipe has several parts arranged in a ring around the axis of the distribution trough. Its upper end is rotatably connected to the distribution trough by a rotating bolt installed on the outer ring. The upper end of the feeding pipe is provided with a receiving port corresponding to the discharge port, and its lower end is provided with a discharge port for delivering concrete to the required position. The receiving port is located below the discharge port.

[0009] The feeder connecting ring is located below the feed trough and is coaxially arranged with the feed trough;

[0010] Support rods, each corresponding to a feeding pipe, with both ends of each support rod rotatably connected to the outer wall of the distributor connecting ring and the outer wall of the corresponding feeding pipe.

[0011] A drive mechanism is used to drive the feeder connecting ring to move up and down along the axis of the feed trough, thereby causing the feed pipe to swing outward or retract inward.

[0012] In another embodiment, the driving mechanism includes a servo motor, a lead screw that is driven by the servo motor and coaxially arranged with the distributing trough, and a nut that is threaded onto the lead screw. The nut is fixedly connected to the distributor connecting ring. The servo motor drives the lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the nut to move up and down along the lead screw, thereby driving the feeding tube to swing outward or retract inward.

[0013] In another embodiment, the projection of the receiving port on the horizontal plane always covers the projection of the unloading port on the horizontal plane.

[0014] In another embodiment, the bracket has a base at its bottom.

[0015] In another embodiment, a vibrator for accelerating the sliding of fluid concrete is provided on the outer wall of the lower end of the feeding pipe.

[0016] In another embodiment, the connection between the support rod and the feed pipe is higher than the connection between the vibrator and the feed pipe.

[0017] In another embodiment, the vibration time of the vibrator is 5 to 10 seconds, and the vibration frequency of the vibrator is greater than 0 Hz and not greater than 50 Hz.

[0018] In another embodiment, the inner ring portion is conical with a high center and low perimeter, extending to the discharge port.

[0019] In another embodiment, the feed tubes are evenly distributed around the inner ring portion.

[0020] In another embodiment, the brackets are evenly distributed below the inner ring portion, and the base is fixed to the mold of the power tower by bolts.

[0021] Due to the application of the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art: 1. This utility model distributes the input concrete to the surrounding area through the inner ring part, and then delivers the concrete to multiple pouring points through multiple feeding pipes, realizing multi-point pouring and significantly improving the quality of the concrete tower; 2. Since the pouring process is automatic material distribution, the pouring efficiency is improved and the labor cost is reduced; 3. After realizing multi-point uniform pouring, the concrete flow distance is significantly shortened, which can reduce the requirements for concrete fluidity and reduce concrete cost.
