[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-efficiency concrete freeze-thaw circulation device, comprising: a freezing box 1, a room temperature box 2, and a thawing box 3, which are connected sequentially from left to right. A conveying pipe is connected to the top of one side of both the freezing box 1 and the thawing box 3. A temperature detector is installed on one side of the inner cavity of both the freezing box 1 and the thawing box 3. A moving track equipment body assembly 4 is installed inside the freezing box 1, the room temperature box 2, and the thawing box 3. Two mounting slots 21 are symmetrically extended downward from both sides of the top of the room temperature box 2. One side of the inner cavity of the two mounting slots 21 is interconnected with the interior of the room temperature box 2. A sealing assembly 5 is installed inside the two mounting slots 21. An opening and closing cover 6 is installed at the top opening of the room temperature box 2 by a hinge. A locking sub-assembly 53 is installed on the top of the opening and closing cover 6.

[0025] Specifically: The device is powered by an external power supply connected to a line; the side walls of both the freezing chamber 1 and the melting chamber 3 are transparent, facilitating observation of the internal conditions; by placing the concrete sample in the placement tray 43, it is transported along the moving track of the device body 41 to either the freezing chamber 1, which is always kept at a low temperature, or the melting chamber 2, which is always kept at a high temperature. The temperature of the environment around the concrete sample is adjusted by moving the position of the concrete sample, eliminating the need to spend a lot of time changing the internal temperature of the chambers. Through the cooperation of the sealing component 5 and the locking sub-component 53, it is convenient to connect only the normal temperature chamber 2 and the freezing chamber 1 or the normal temperature chamber 2 and the melting chamber 3 simultaneously, preventing the two chambers from being opened at the same time, causing the internal air to flow between them, resulting in a rapid change in the internal temperature of the freezing and melting chambers and causing energy loss; the temperature detector (not shown in the attached diagram) can detect the internal temperature of the freezing chamber 1 and the melting chamber 3.

[0026] In one embodiment, the mobile track device body assembly 4 includes a mobile track device body 41 disposed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the freezing chamber 1, the ambient temperature chamber 2, and the melting chamber 3. The mobile track device body 41 extends along the interior of the freezing chamber 1 and the ambient temperature chamber 2 into the interior of the melting chamber 3. The surface of the mobile track device body 41 is provided with a moving wheel 42 for driving the placement tray 43 to move. The placement tray 43 is disposed on the top of the moving wheel 42.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 2 , 4 As shown: The main body 41 of the mobile track equipment is existing technology. After operation, it can drive the moving wheels set on its surface to move, thereby completing the conveying and transfer of materials. The specific mechanism will not be described in detail here.

[0028] In one embodiment, the sealing assembly 5 includes a sealing plate 51, which is movably embedded in the mounting groove 21. A fastening rod 52 is movably embedded in the interior of the sealing plate 51. The lower end of the fastening rod 52 movably passes through the bottom surface of the sealing plate 51 and is threadedly connected to the center of the bottom of the cavity of the ambient temperature chamber 2. A rotating handle 521 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the fastening rod 52, and the rotating handle 521 is located above the sealing plate 51.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figures 2-5 As shown: The mounting groove 21 provides movable installation space for the sealing plate 51. The surface of the fastening rod 52 is threaded. One end of the fastening rod 52 passes through the surface of the sealing plate 51 and is threaded to the bottom of the inner cavity of the ambient temperature chamber 2, which serves to fix the sealing plate 51 installed in the mounting groove 21. The handle 521 facilitates the rotation of the fastening rod 52.

[0030] In one embodiment, the sealing plate 51 has an abutment cavity 511 inside, and the surface of the fastening rod 52 is fixedly fitted with an abutment block 522, the surface of the abutment block 522 being movably connected to the inside of the abutment cavity 511.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown: The abutment cavity 511 provides space for the abutment block 522 to move up and down. When the fastening rod 52 moves upward and its bottom surface is separated from the bottom of the room temperature chamber 2, the fastening rod 52 will drive the abutment block 522 to move upward inside the abutment cavity 511 during the upward movement. The abutment block 522 can limit the fastening rod 52 and prevent the fastening rod 52 from being pulled out of the sealing plate 51.

[0032] In one embodiment, an elastic sealing ring 7 is fixedly installed around the side wall of the sealing plate 51, and the connection between the side wall of the sealing plate 51 and the inner wall of the ambient temperature box 2 is sealed by the elastic sealing ring 7. An insulation plate 10 is installed on the other side of the sealing plate 51, and the insulation plate 10 is movably embedded in the interior of the mounting groove 21.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figures 3-4 As shown: the elastic sealing ring 7 is used to enhance the sealing effect at the connection between the side wall of the sealing plate 51 and the inner wall of the room temperature box 2; the heat insulation plate 10 is used to block the hot and cold gases inside the freezing box 1 and the melting box 3. The bottom of the sealing plate 51 and the heat insulation plate 10 are provided with matching and fitting grooves (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the surface of the moving track equipment body 41. The fitting grooves facilitate the sealing plate 51 and the heat insulation plate 10 to fit and engage with the surface of the track equipment body 41 when they move down, which is convenient for sealing.

[0034] In one embodiment, the locking sub-assembly 53 includes a fixing sleeve 531, which is fixedly connected to the top of the opening and closing cover 6. A limiting plate 532 is movably embedded inside the fixing sleeve 531. A sliding groove 5311 is provided at the center of the top of the fixing sleeve 531. A push-pull handle 5321 is fixedly installed on the top of the limiting plate 532. The surface of the push-pull handle 5321 is movably embedded inside the sliding groove 5311.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 5: The sliding groove 5311 provides space for the push-pull handle 5321 to move left and right. When the push-pull handle 5321 is pushed left and right, it will drive the limiting plate 532 inside the fixed sleeve 531 to move, so that the limiting plate 532 extends from one end of the fixed sleeve 531 and presses against the top of the sealing plate 51 on the same side for pressing and fixing. When the limiting plate 532 extends from one side of the fixed sleeve 531, the other side will be retracted into the interior of the fixed sleeve 531.

[0036] In one embodiment, the top of the sealing plate 51 facing the inside of the room temperature chamber 2 has an arc-shaped abutment surface 512, and the bottom of the sealing plate 51 facing the inside of the room temperature chamber 2 is fixedly connected with a limit strip 513 along the length of the sealing plate 51. A fixing plate 9 is fixedly installed at the position of the top of the inner cavity of the mounting groove 21 corresponding to the arc-shaped abutment surface 512.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figures 2-3 As shown: the arc-shaped contact surface 512 provides space for the installation of the fixing plate 9. The sealing plate 51, placed inside the mounting groove 21, has one side attached to one side of the mounting groove 21 through the connected heat insulation plate 10, and the other side attached to the other side of the inner cavity of the mounting groove 21 through the limiting strip 513. When the sealing plate 51 is pulled out, the fixing plate 9 limits the limiting strip 513 to prevent the sealing plate 51 from being pulled out of the mounting groove 21.

[0038] In one embodiment, fastening knob bolts 8 are movably embedded at both ends of one side of the opening and closing cover 6, and one end of the two fastening knob bolts 8 is threadedly embedded and connected to both ends of the top side of the ambient temperature box 2.

[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , 5 As shown: The surface of the opening and closing cover 6 is provided with a handle, which can be used to lift the opening and closing cover 6 to open and close. The fastening knob bolt 8 can be used to fix the opening and closing cover 6 when it is closed.

[0040] Working principle:

[0041] The external connection pipe is pre-connected to the conveying pipe on one side of the freezing box 1 and the melting box 3, and the other end of the external connection pipe is connected to the external refrigeration and heating equipment. The external refrigeration and heating equipment are used to transport cold air and hot air into the freezing box 1 and the melting box 3.

[0042] When using this concrete freeze-thaw cycle device, the operator can place the concrete sample in the placement tray 43 by opening the opening and closing cover 6. When a concrete sample freezing test is required, the operator pulls up the sealing plate 51 on the side connecting the freezing chamber 1 and the ambient temperature chamber 2, thereby connecting the ambient temperature chamber 2 and the freezing chamber 1. The operator then operates the moving track device 41 through the external control terminal to drive the moving wheel 42 to move the anti-freezing tray 43 along the moving track device body 41 into the freezing chamber 1. Then, the operator pushes down the sealing plate 51 to isolate the freezing chamber 1 from the ambient temperature chamber 2. The operator then conducts the test and uses a temperature detector to monitor the temperature inside the freezing chamber 1 in real time and feeds it back to the external control terminal. The operator then controls the external refrigeration equipment to deliver cold air into the freezing chamber 1 to perform a freezing test on the concrete sample that has moved into the freezing chamber 1.

[0043] When a melting test is required, open one side of the sealing plate 51 to move the placement tray 43 into the ambient temperature chamber 2, then close that side of the sealing plate 51. Next, open the other side of the sealing plate 51 and transfer the placement tray 43 into the melting chamber 3. Close the sealing plate 51 again to conduct the test. A temperature detector monitors the temperature inside the melting chamber 3 in real time and sends the feedback to the external control terminal. This coordinates with the external heating equipment to supply hot air into the freezing chamber 1, performing a hot-melt test on the concrete sample moved into the melting chamber 3. After the experiment is completed, open the opening / closing cover 6 to remove the concrete sample for observation.

[0044] Through the above operations, the temperature inside the freezing chamber 1 and the thawing chamber 3 will not be exposed to outside air for a long time. They only need to be briefly connected to the ambient temperature chamber 2 during the transfer process, and are isolated and sealed by the set sealing component 5. This allows the chamber to be connected to the ambient temperature chamber and the freezing chamber or the ambient temperature chamber and the thawing chamber at the same time, preventing the freezing chamber and the thawing chamber from being opened at the same time and causing the internal air to flow between them, thus reducing energy loss. At the same time, the temperature inside the freezing chamber 1 or the thawing chamber 3 can be adjusted in advance before transferring the concrete sample, thereby solving the problem of the equipment needing to spend a lot of time changing the temperature inside the chamber during the concrete freeze-thaw cycle as much as possible, and improving the efficiency of the freeze-thaw cycle experiment.

[0045] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
