Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of water conservancy construction, and in particular to a curing device for concrete in engineering construction. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the reason why concrete can gradually solidify and harden after being poured is mainly due to the hydration of cement. However, hydration requires appropriate temperature and humidity conditions. Therefore, in order to ensure that concrete has suitable hardening conditions and its strength continues to increase, it is necessary to cure the concrete.
[0003] Currently, the most common method for curing concrete is to cover it with straw mats and then spray water directly on it. However, since the straw mats can only absorb a small amount of water, most of the water is lost directly, which is a serious waste of water resources. In addition, the straw mats need to be sprayed with water again after they dry, which wastes manpower and resources. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problems mentioned in the background section, this invention provides a curing device for concrete used in engineering construction.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model to achieve the above objectives is a curing device for concrete in engineering construction, comprising:
[0006] A square frame with its four edges connected to form a square annular inner cavity, and a sponge pad is installed on its lower surface.
[0007] A grid frame, installed inside the lower part of a square frame;
[0008] The water storage frame is set inside the square frame and above the grid frame. An anchoring square frame is set inside the upper part of the frame. The anchoring square frame is connected to the square frame by studs and nuts. The upper end of the water storage frame is clamped between the anchoring square frame and the square frame. Several maintenance pinholes are opened on its lower surface and are evenly distributed.
[0009] A square annular top plate seat is set inside the square frame at the top, and a sealing cover plate is installed on top of it and connected by bolts;
[0010] The maintenance water pipes are installed on the two side surfaces inside the square frame and located below the sealing cover.
[0011] Drain bolts are installed on the outer surfaces of both sides of the square frame and sealed by squeezing soft pads;
[0012] The spliced water pipes are installed at the center of the four side surfaces of the outer square frame. Two of the spliced water pipes have quick-connect female connectors installed at one end and are symmetrically distributed along the square frame. The other two spliced water pipes have quick-connect male connectors installed at one end and are symmetrically distributed along the square frame.
[0013] In this invention, the water storage frame and the sealing cover are made of transparent rubber material.
[0014] In this invention, multiple square frames are evenly laid on concrete and connected by quick-connect male and female connectors on splicing water pipes.
[0015] In this utility model, after the multiple square frames are assembled, a sealing female connector is installed on the outermost quick-connect male connector, and a sealing male connector is installed on the outermost quick-connect female connector.
[0016] In this invention, after the multiple square frames are assembled, one of the outermost quick-connect female connectors is connected to an external water pipe.
[0017] In this invention, after the square frame is filled with a certain amount of water, it presses down on the sponge pad, making the water permeability of the sponge pad less than the sum of the water permeability of all the maintenance pinholes.
[0018] In this invention, the square frame is made of stainless steel.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] 1. The modular design of the square frame allows the device to adapt to the curing needs of concrete of different areas, reducing manual adjustment time. Furthermore, the quick-connect male and female connectors can improve assembly speed.
[0021] 2. By utilizing the maintenance pinholes on the water storage frame, water can slowly seep out, reducing water waste. At the same time, the seal between the water storage frame and the sealing cover slows down water evaporation and saves water resources.
[0022] 3. By storing water inside the square frame and compressing the sponge pad, the water permeability of the sponge pad is reduced, allowing water to fully contact the concrete below the square frame. At the same time, the water can also be used to wet the concrete outside the square frame, further reducing water waste. Attached Figure Description

[0028] 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.
[0029] This utility model provides a technical solution, such as Figures 1-3 As shown; a concrete curing device for engineering construction includes: a square frame 1, whose four sides are interconnected to form a square annular inner cavity, and a sponge pad 11 installed on its lower surface; a grid frame 2, installed inside the lower part of the square frame 1; a water storage frame 3, set inside the square frame 1 and above the grid frame 2, with an anchoring square frame 31 set inside the upper part of the water storage frame 3, which is connected to the square frame 1 by studs and nuts, the upper end of the water storage frame 3 is clamped between the anchoring square frame 31 and the square frame 1, and a number of curing pinholes 32 are opened on its lower surface and evenly distributed; and a square annular top plate seat 4, set inside the upper part of the square frame 1, with a sealing cover plate 41 set on its upper part and connected by bolts.
[0030] In this embodiment of the utility model, the square frame 1 can be placed on top of the concrete, and by placing and splicing multiple square frames 1, it can cover the concrete, thus facilitating the spray curing of the concrete. At the same time, it can be applied to concrete of various sizes, thus improving its application range.
[0031] In this embodiment of the invention, the sponge pad 11 is designed to be compressed by the weight of the device and water, thereby reducing its permeability and allowing water to remain on the concrete, thus reducing water waste.
[0032] In this embodiment of the utility model, by using the water storage frame 3 and the grid frame 2, the water storage frame 3 can be placed on top of the concrete, and then the water can slowly seep into and flow onto the concrete using the curing pinholes 32 on it. On the one hand, this can reduce the water flow rate and avoid excessive water volume and waste, and on the other hand, it can reduce water evaporation loss and save water resources.
[0033] In this embodiment of the utility model, the sealing cover plate 41 can prevent the water in the water storage frame 3 from evaporating, thereby reducing water loss. At the same time, it can also prevent water from overflowing from the square frame 1 during the water filling process, thus avoiding waste of water resources.
[0034] In this embodiment of the invention, the curing pinholes 32 and the sponge pad 11 work together. The curing pinholes 32 allow water to slowly and evenly penetrate into the concrete. At the same time, the total weight of the square frame 1 and the water stored inside it fully compresses the sponge pad 11, thereby reducing its water permeability to a level lower than that of all the curing pinholes 32. This allows water to be temporarily stored on the concrete below the square frame 1, ensuring adequate curing of the concrete. The compressed sponge pad 11 also allows water to slowly extend out, curing the external concrete and ensuring the curing effect of the concrete while greatly reducing water waste.
[0035] Maintenance water pipes 5 are installed on the inner two side surfaces of the square frame 1 and located below the sealing cover plate 41; drainage bolts 6 are installed on the outer two side surfaces of the square frame 1 and sealed by squeezing soft pads 61; splicing water pipes 7 are installed at the center of the four outer side surfaces of the square frame 1, with quick-connect female connectors 71 installed at one end of two splicing water pipes 7 and symmetrically distributed along the square frame 1, and quick-connect male connectors 72 installed at one end of the other two splicing water pipes 7 and symmetrically distributed along the square frame 1.
[0036] In this embodiment of the utility model, by using the setting of the maintenance water pipe 5, water can be injected to fill the inner cavity of the square frame 1 first, thereby increasing the weight of the square frame 1 and allowing the sponge pad 11 to be fully compressed, so as to reduce water waste and ensure the maintenance effect.
[0037] In this embodiment of the utility model, the drainage bolts 6 enable the water inside the square frame 1 to be automatically drained after the maintenance work is completed, so as to facilitate the disassembly and transportation of the device.
[0038] In this embodiment of the utility model, by using the splicing water pipe 7, quick-connect male connector 72 and quick-connect female connector 71, multiple square frames 1 can be quickly assembled and connected, making the square frames 1 modular, thus making them suitable for concrete curing of different areas, while also facilitating the transportation and storage of the device.
[0039] In this invention, the water storage frame 3 and the sealing cover 41 are made of transparent rubber material; the water level and maintenance status can be observed intuitively, without the need for frequent disassembly and inspection, making it more convenient to use.
[0040] In this invention, multiple square frames 1 are evenly laid on concrete and connected by quick-connect male connectors 72 and quick-connect female connectors 71 on the splicing water pipes 7; this facilitates the assembly and connection of multiple square frames 1 and reduces the difficulty of installation.
[0041] In this utility model, after multiple square frames 1 are assembled, a sealing female connector 73 is installed on the outermost quick-connect male connector 72, and a sealing male connector 74 is installed on the outermost quick-connect female connector 71; this ensures the airtightness of the overall water system and prevents accidental water leakage.
[0042] In this invention, after multiple square frames 1 are assembled, one of the outermost quick-connect female connectors 71 is connected to an external water pipe; this facilitates water supply to the device and reduces the difficulty of use.
[0043] In this invention, after the square frame 1 is filled with a certain amount of water, it presses down on the sponge pad 11, so that the water permeability of the sponge pad 11 is less than the sum of the water permeability of all the maintenance pinholes 32; ensuring that the water can fully contact the concrete and preventing local water accumulation or dryness.
[0044] In this invention, the square frame 1 is made of stainless steel to prevent rust and damage and to extend its service life.
[0045] When using this utility model, the staff takes out the corresponding number of square frames 1 according to the area of the concrete to be cured, and then lays the multiple square frames 1 evenly on the concrete according to the shape of the concrete.
[0046] After the installation is completed, the workers use quick-connect fittings consisting of quick-connect male connectors 72 and quick-connect female connectors 71 to quickly assemble and connect multiple laid square frames 1 together. Then, the workers take out several sealing female connectors 73 and sealing male connectors 74 and install them on the quick-connect male connectors 72 or quick-connect female connectors 71 on the outermost square frame 1, so that all the square frames 1 form a complete water system.
[0047] Finally, the staff simply installs the water supply pipe onto one of the quick-connect female connectors 71.
[0048] During maintenance, water is supplied to the inner cavity of the square frame 1 through the water supply pipe. The water flows through the inner cavity of the square frame 1 and into the inner cavities of other square frames 1 through the splicing water pipe 7, so that the water flows evenly into all the square frames 1. As water is injected, the water level inside the square frame 1 gradually increases, and water flows out from the maintenance water pipe 5 and into the water storage frame 3, where it is stored until the water volume reaches the appropriate level, at which point the work can be stopped.
[0049] As water is injected into the square frame 1, the total weight of the square frame 1 increases, which in turn compresses the sponge pad 11 downwards, gradually compressing it until it reaches its minimum thickness.
[0050] Simultaneously, as water is injected into the water storage frame 3, the water slowly seeps out through the curing pinholes 32 on the water storage frame 3 and drips onto the concrete. At this time, the sponge pad 11 is compressed, and its overall water permeability is lower than the sum of the seepage efficiencies of all the curing pinholes 32. This allows the water to gradually remain on the concrete inside the square frame 1, thus allowing the water to fully contact the concrete for curing and avoiding localized drying. Furthermore, the slow penetration of the sponge pad 11 allows the water to penetrate to the outside of the square frame 1, thereby curing the concrete outside the square frame 1.
[0051] After a certain period of time, staff can observe the water level in water storage box 3. When the water level is low, water can be supplied to the device again to ensure continuous curing of the concrete, guarantee the curing effect of the concrete, and avoid curing interruption.
