[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] 1. This utility model provides a foamed concrete preparation device, including a base frame, a mixing tank, a mixing mechanism and a foaming mechanism, wherein the foaming mechanism is used to generate foam and transport it into the mixing tank, and the mixing mechanism mixes the raw materials and foam in the mixing tank evenly.

It has the advantages of small size and simple use.

[0018] 2. The foaming mechanism used in this utility model can accurately control the amount of foam entering the mixing tank through a flow meter, so as to achieve a precise ratio of foam and concrete. This can greatly improve the performance of foamed concrete and ensure the quality of the project. The foaming machine directly introduces the prepared foam into the mixing tank through the flow meter and the foam outlet pipe to achieve full mixing with the concrete.

This solves the practical engineering problems in actual application, such as the large amount of foamed concrete remaining at the bottom of the mixing tank that cannot be discharged, as well as the foam breakage and inaccurate foam addition caused by transporting the prepared foam from the foaming machine to the mixer. It also solves the problem of the foamed concrete remaining at the outlet of the mixing tank that cannot be completely poured out.

[0020] 4. The foamed concrete preparation device proposed in this utility model can solve the problem of difficulty in preparing foamed concrete in some construction environments where the project scale is small, there is no conditions or space for large-scale foamed concrete preparation, it is difficult to transport and install large fixed mixing equipment, or it is necessary to frequently change the workplace.
