Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of railway sleeper maintenance technology, and more specifically, to a railway sleeper maintenance humidity control device. Background Technology

[0002] The main function of concrete sleepers is to support the rails and maintain their stability. When trains carrying hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of tons of weight pass over the track at high speed, they exert tremendous impact on the track. Concrete sleepers can transfer the enormous pressure from the train to the track bed, preventing the rails from sinking due to excessive pressure.

[0003] Currently, a curing process is required during the production of concrete railway sleepers. During curing, keeping the concrete surface moist can prevent excessive evaporation of water and ensure sufficient moisture for hydration. If the humidity is insufficient, the water in the concrete will evaporate rapidly, leading to incomplete hydration and affecting the strength and durability of the concrete.

[0004] Announcement No. CN217891326U proposed a sleeper maintenance humidity control device, which has a good moisturizing effect on sleepers; however, sleepers are directly exposed to the external environment for maintenance, making them susceptible to external temperature and humidity interference, and unable to maintain constant temperature and humidity. Consequently, cracks easily appear on the surface of the sleepers after maintenance, and the sleeper maintenance process needs further optimization. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, and then to propose a sleeper maintenance humidity control device.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0007] A railway sleeper maintenance humidity control device includes a maintenance box, a double-opening sealed door, a placement plate, a water supply assembly, a spray pipe, an atomizing nozzle, a temperature and humidity sensor, a stainless steel bracket, and a constant temperature and humidity air conditioner.

[0008] Double-opening, sealed doors are installed on the curing box;

[0009] Several placement plates are fixed at equal intervals inside the curing box to divide the curing box into multiple placement areas;

[0010] The water supply components are installed on the maintenance box;

[0011] Each placement area is equipped with a spray pipe connected to the water supply components, and the spray pipe is located above the placement plate.

[0012] The atomizing nozzles are equidistantly arranged on the spray pipe and connected to the inside of the spray pipe;

[0013] The temperature and humidity sensor is installed inside the curing chamber and is electrically connected to the constant temperature and humidity air conditioner installed at the rear of the curing chamber.

[0014] The stainless steel bracket holding the rail sleepers is placed on the placement plate;

[0015] The constant temperature and humidity air conditioner is connected to several placement areas through pipes.

[0016] Furthermore, the water supply assembly includes a high-pressure water pump and a main pipe. The maintenance box is equipped with a high-pressure water pump and a main pipe connected to the high-pressure water pump. The main pipe is connected to several spray pipes respectively.

[0017] The above solution achieves synchronous water supply to several spray pipes through a water supply component.

[0018] Furthermore, each of the placement plates is divided into several stacking areas by partitions, and a stainless steel bracket is placed on each stacking area.

[0019] The above solution uses partitions to define the placement area for several stainless steel brackets on each layer.

[0020] Furthermore, the placement plate is provided with a number of drainage holes, and the bottom of the placement plate is provided with a number of reinforcing rods that are staggered with the drainage holes.

[0021] The above solution can prevent water accumulation on the placement plate due to prolonged spraying by using drainage holes. At the same time as opening drainage holes, a reinforcing bar is added to the bottom of the placement plate to ensure the load-bearing strength of the placement plate.

[0022] Furthermore, the bottom of the curing box is provided with a liquid outlet channel and a solenoid valve is provided on the liquid outlet channel. A guide platform is symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the inside of the curing box, and a collection box is placed below the liquid outlet channel.

[0023] The above solution uses a flow guide to direct the water that eventually accumulates at the bottom of the curing tank to the outlet channel. Then, by periodically opening the solenoid valve, the water can be discharged and collected.

[0024] Furthermore, the partition is provided with a rubber layer and is movably connected to the placement plate.

[0025] The above solution reduces the probability of wear when the stainless steel bracket comes into contact with the partition through the rubber layer, while the partition is easy to disassemble and replace.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0027] Compared to existing technologies, the sleepers in this device can avoid interference from the external environment during the moisturizing and curing process. At the same time, different types of sleepers are stored separately to avoid mixing. The stainless steel brackets make it easy to pick up and put down the sleepers. Finally, the constant temperature and humidity air conditioner can keep the temperature and humidity in the curing box within a constant range. As a result, the sleepers are less likely to crack after curing, and the curing effect is better. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model. The present utility model will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a railway sleeper maintenance humidity control device includes a maintenance box 1, a double-opening sealed door (not shown in the figure), a placement plate 11, a water supply assembly, a spray pipe 14, an atomizing nozzle 15, a temperature and humidity sensor 17, a constant temperature and humidity air conditioner 3, and a stainless steel bracket 21.

[0034] A double-opening, sealed door is installed on curing box 1;

[0035] Several placement plates 11 are fixed at equal intervals inside the curing box 1 to divide the curing box 1 into multiple placement areas;

[0036] The water supply components are installed on the curing box 1;

[0037] Each placement area is equipped with a spray pipe 14 connected to the water supply component, and the spray pipe 14 is located above the placement plate 11.

[0038] Atomizing nozzles 15 are equidistantly arranged on the spray pipe 14 and are connected to the inside of the spray pipe 14;

[0039] Temperature and humidity sensor 17 is installed inside curing chamber 1 and is electrically connected to constant temperature and humidity air conditioner 3 installed behind curing chamber 1.

[0040] A stainless steel bracket 21 for holding rail sleepers is placed on a placement plate 11;

[0041] The constant temperature and humidity air conditioner 3 is connected to several placement areas through pipes.

[0042] Further refinements of the embodiments of this utility model, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the water supply assembly includes a high-pressure water pump 12 and a main pipe 13. The maintenance box 1 is equipped with a high-pressure water pump 12 and a main pipe 13 connected to the output end of the high-pressure water pump 12. The main pipe 13 is connected to several spray pipes 14 respectively. The input end of the high-pressure water pump 12 is connected to a water tank, which is not shown in the figure.

[0043] Further refinements of the embodiments of this utility model, such as... Figure 1 As shown, each placement plate 11 is divided into several stacking areas by partitions 16, and a stainless steel bracket 21 is placed on each stacking area.

[0044] In a further optimization of the above embodiment, a rubber layer is provided on the partition 16 and the partition 16 is movably connected to the placement plate 11; the partition 16 can limit the placement area of ​​several stainless steel brackets 21 in each layer, the rubber layer can reduce the probability of wear when the stainless steel brackets 21 come into contact with the partition 16, and the partition 16 is easy to disassemble and replace.

[0045] It should be noted that the high-pressure water pump 12, the temperature and humidity sensor 17, and the constant temperature and humidity air conditioner 3 are all electrically connected to the controller, which is not shown in the figure.

[0046] The working process of this utility model is as follows:

[0047] First, place the sleepers that need to be maintained on the stainless steel bracket 21 and limit their position (the sleepers are not shown in the figure and one sleeper is placed on one stainless steel bracket 21). Then, use a forklift to place the brackets and sleepers in different placement areas at different heights. The significance of layered placement is that the concrete sleepers are of different types, and storing them at different heights can avoid mixing between different types of sleepers. The brackets make it easier to put the sleepers into the maintenance box 1.

[0048] After the stainless steel bracket 21 is placed into the curing box 1, the double-opening sealed door is closed. Then the controller controls the water supply component to work, which can simultaneously inject water into several spray pipes 14. Then, through the action of the atomizing nozzles 15, water mist can be sprayed onto the surface of the sleeper. The water mist has a wider coverage after being pressurized. Each layer is equipped with atomizing nozzles 15 to ensure the moisturizing spray effect on various types of sleepers. At the same time, the spray saves water resources.

[0049] During the spraying process, the temperature and humidity parameters inside the curing box 1 can be detected in real time by the temperature and humidity sensor 17 and the results can be fed back to the controller. Then, after the curing box 1 is connected to the constant temperature and humidity air conditioner 3, the temperature and humidity inside can be kept within a certain range, thereby improving the curing effect of the sleepers.

[0050] Compared to existing technologies, the sleepers in this device can avoid interference from the external environment during the moisturizing and curing process. At the same time, different types of sleepers are stored separately to avoid mixing. The stainless steel brackets make it easy to pick up and put down the sleepers. Finally, the constant temperature and humidity air conditioner can keep the temperature and humidity in the curing box within a constant range. As a result, the sleepers are less likely to crack after curing, and the curing effect is better.

[0051] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the placement plate 11 has several drainage holes and several reinforcing rods 18 are provided at the bottom of the placement plate 11, which are distributed alternately with the drainage holes. The drainage holes are not shown in the figure. In this embodiment, the drainage holes can prevent water from accumulating on the placement plate 11 due to prolonged spraying. At the same time as opening the drainage holes, the reinforcing rods 18 are added to the bottom of the placement plate 11 to ensure the load-bearing strength of the placement plate 11.

[0052] In other embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the curing tank 1 is provided with a liquid outlet channel 42 and a solenoid valve 43 is provided on the liquid outlet channel 42. The bottom of the curing tank 1 is symmetrically provided with a guide platform 41. A collection box is placed below the liquid outlet channel 42, which is not shown in the figure. In this embodiment, the water that finally accumulates at the bottom of the curing tank 1 can be guided to the liquid outlet channel 42 through the guide platform 41. Then, the solenoid valve 43 can be opened periodically to realize the discharge and collection of the water.

[0053] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The descriptions of the above embodiments and specifications are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
