Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of concrete curing technology, and in particular to an automatic curing tool for large-volume outdoor concrete for wind power foundations. Background Technology

[0002] In the construction of large-volume outdoor concrete structures, concrete curing is a crucial step in ensuring its strength and durability. Currently, the curing of large-volume outdoor concrete for wind turbine foundations is typically carried out manually, requiring frequent manual intervention. This method is labor-intensive and resource-intensive, and prone to issues such as missed or over-pouring, resulting in uneven curing and poor effectiveness. Furthermore, manual watering is susceptible to weather and time constraints, making it difficult to guarantee timely and continuous curing. In some large-scale wind turbine foundation projects, the large volume of concrete further complicates manual curing, increasing costs and the labor intensity for workers. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a tool that can automatically cure large-volume outdoor concrete for wind turbine foundations to improve curing efficiency and quality while reducing costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present invention provides an automatic curing tool for large-volume outdoor concrete of wind power foundations, which automatically and uniformly sprays and cures large-volume outdoor concrete of wind power foundations, improving curing efficiency and quality, and reducing curing costs and labor intensity of workers.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] This utility model discloses an automatic curing tool for large-volume outdoor concrete for wind turbine foundations, comprising a support frame. The support frame includes an inner support leg, a crossbeam, and an outer support leg. The crossbeam is connected to the top of the inner and outer support legs. The bottom of the inner and outer support legs are respectively equipped with traveling wheels that mate with the inner and outer tracks on the surface of the wind turbine foundation. The total number of traveling wheels is at least three. The crossbeam is equipped with a motor, a water pump, a battery, and a controller. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly equipped with a drive sprocket. One of the traveling wheels on the outer support leg... A driven sprocket is fixedly installed, and the drive sprocket and the driven sprocket are connected by chain drive. The battery, the controller, and the motor are connected in series with wires to form a drive circuit. A spray pipe is arranged along the length of the crossbeam, and multiple spray nozzles are evenly arranged along the length of the spray pipe. The outlet end of the water pump is connected to the spray pipe. A water tank is arranged near the water pump. The inlet end of the water pump is connected to a water pipe, and the inlet end of the water pipe extends into the water tank. The battery, the controller, and the water pump are connected in series with wires to form a spray circuit.

[0006] Furthermore, a photovoltaic panel and a charging controller are provided at the top of the crossbeam. The photovoltaic panel and the charging controller are connected in series by wires, and the charging controller is connected in series with the battery by wires.

[0007] Furthermore, a flow regulating valve is installed on the spray pipe near the water pump.

[0008] Furthermore, the crossbeam is equipped with a timer, and the battery, the timer, the controller, and the water pump are connected in series via wires to form a spray control loop.

[0009] Furthermore, the wheel surface of the walking wheel is provided with an anti-slip structure.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0011] This application provides an automatic curing tool for large-volume outdoor concrete for wind turbine foundations. The spray pipes are mounted on the crossbeams of a support frame, which is placed on the wind turbine foundation. The spray nozzles face the foundation. The inner support legs' wheels are positioned within inner tracks on the foundation surface, while the outer support legs' wheels are positioned within outer tracks. A battery, controller, and motor are connected in series via wires to form a drive circuit. The motor, drive sprocket, chain, driven sprocket, and wheels constitute the drive system. Similarly, a battery, controller, and water pump are connected in series via wires to form a spray circuit. The water pump, water tank, water pipes, spray pipes, and nozzles constitute the spray system. The controller commands the motor and water pump to operate. The motor's output shaft rotates, driving the drive sprocket. The drive sprocket and driven sprocket are driven by a chain, which in turn drives the driven sprocket to rotate. The driven sprocket's rotation drives the traveling wheels, causing the traveling wheels of the outer support legs to move along the outer track, which in turn drives the traveling wheels of the inner support legs to move along the inner track, thus causing the support frame to rotate on the wind turbine foundation. The water pump draws water from the tank through water pipes into the pump, and the water in the pump enters the spray pipes. The water in the spray pipes is sprayed from the nozzles below onto the concrete surface of the wind turbine foundation. As the traveling wheels move, they drive the support frame to rotate, which in turn drives the spray pipes installed on the support frame's crossbeams to rotate, thus allowing the spray pipes to provide 360° spray curing to the concrete surface of the wind turbine foundation. The automatic curing tool for outdoor large-volume concrete of wind turbine foundations disclosed in this application is installed on the upper part of the wind turbine foundation concrete. Under the action of the drive system, the spraying system can automatically and uniformly spray the wind turbine foundation concrete, ensuring the uniformity of the curing effect and improving the curing quality. It eliminates the need for manual watering, achieving automatic curing, saving manpower and resources, improving curing efficiency, and reducing curing costs and worker labor intensity. This automatic curing tool for outdoor large-volume concrete of wind turbine foundations is particularly suitable for the curing of outdoor large-volume wind turbine foundation concrete.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0019] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides an automatic curing tool for large-volume outdoor concrete of wind turbine foundations, including a portal-shaped support frame 1. The support frame 1 includes an inner support leg 103, a crossbeam 102, and an outer support leg 101. The crossbeam 102 is connected to the top of the inner support leg 103 and the outer support leg 101. The bottom of the inner support leg 103 and the outer support leg 101 are respectively equipped with traveling wheels 5 that cooperate with the inner rail 11 and the outer rail 12 on the surface of the wind turbine foundation 10. The total number of traveling wheels 5 is at least three. The crossbeam 102 is equipped with a motor 9, a water pump 2, a battery, and a controller. The output shaft of the motor 9 is fixedly equipped with a drive sprocket. A driven sprocket is fixedly mounted on one of the traveling wheels 5 of the outer support leg 101. The drive sprocket and the driven sprocket are connected by a chain 6. The battery, the controller, and the motor 9 are connected in series with wires to form a drive circuit. A spray pipe 8 is arranged along the length of the crossbeam 102, and multiple nozzles 7 are evenly arranged along the length of the spray pipe 8. The outlet end of the water pump 2 is connected to the spray pipe 8. A water tank 4 is arranged near the water pump 2. A water pipe 3 is connected to the inlet end of the water pump 2, and the inlet end of the water pipe 3 extends into the water tank 4. The battery, the controller, and the water pump 2 are connected in series with wires to form a spray circuit. An inner track 11 and an outer track 12 are preset on the surface of the wind power foundation 10. The inner track 11 and the outer track 12 are U-shaped tracks. The traveling wheel 5 is inside the inner track 11 and the outer track 12, and there is a gap between the wheel side of the traveling wheel 5 and the side wall of the inner track 11 and the outer track 12. The total number of traveling wheels 5 can be three, four, five, or six, etc. First, divide the traveling wheels 5 into two equal groups and install them on the bottom of the outer support leg 101 and the bottom of the inner support leg 103 respectively. If there are still traveling wheels 5 remaining after dividing into two groups, install the remaining traveling wheels 5 on the bottom of the outer support leg 101 or the bottom of the inner support leg 103 to ensure stable support for the support frame 1. If the total number of traveling wheels 5 is four, install two traveling wheels 5 on the bottom of the inner support leg 103 and two traveling wheels 5 on the bottom of the outer support leg 101 to provide stable support for the support frame 1. Further, welding mounting plates are made to the bottom of the inner support leg 103 and the bottom of the outer support leg 101. Two traveling wheels 5 (such as casters) are bolted to the bottom of the mounting plates. The two traveling wheels 5 at the bottom of the inner support leg 103 are symmetrical relative to the inner support leg 103, and the two traveling wheels 5 at the bottom of the outer support leg 101 are symmetrical relative to the outer support leg 101. The water pipe 3 can be made of PVC pipe. A sprinkler head 7 is installed at intervals of 200mm, 300mm, 400mm, or 500mm at the lower end of the sprinkler pipe 8. The two ends of the crossbeam 102 are respectively fixed to the tops of the inner support leg 103 and the outer support leg 101 by welding. The motor 9, water pump 2, battery, and controller can be mounted on the crossbeam 102 using existing methods such as mounting plates and bolts. The sprinkler pipes can be secured to the lower end of the crossbeam with cable ties.The driven sprocket is mounted on one of the traveling wheels 5 of the inner support leg 103 or the outer support leg 101. To ensure smooth movement of the traveling wheels 5 at the bottom of the inner support leg 103 and the outer support leg 101 on the inner and outer tracks 11 and 12 respectively on the surface of the wind turbine foundation 10, a second motor is installed at one end of the crossbeam 102 near the inner support leg 103. A second drive sprocket is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the second motor, and a second driven sprocket is fixedly mounted on the traveling wheel 5 of the inner support leg 103. The second drive sprocket and the second driven sprocket are connected by a second chain drive. The battery, controller, and second motor are connected in series via wires to form a second drive circuit. The speeds of the second motor and motor 9 are adjusted to ensure that the time it takes for the inner support leg 103 to rotate once on the inner track 11 is the same as the time it takes for the outer support leg 101 to rotate once on the outer track 12. A PLC can be selected as the controller. Protective housings can be installed on the water pump 2, motor 9, battery, and controller to protect them.

[0020] An automatic curing tool for large-volume outdoor concrete for wind turbine foundations, based on the above structure, includes a spray pipe 8 mounted on the crossbeam 102 of a support frame 1. The support frame 1 is placed on the wind turbine foundation 10, with the nozzle 7 of the spray pipe 8 facing the wind turbine foundation 10. The wheels 5 of the inner support legs 103 of the support frame 1 are placed in the inner track 11 on the surface of the wind turbine foundation 10, and the wheels 5 of the outer support legs 101 are placed in the outer track 101 on the surface of the wind turbine foundation 10. A battery, controller, and motor 9 are connected in series via wires to form a drive circuit. The motor 9, drive sprocket, chain 6, driven sprocket, and wheels 5 constitute the drive system. A battery, controller, and water pump 2 are connected in series via wires to form a spray circuit. The water pump 2, water tank 4, water pipe 3, spray pipe 8, and nozzle 7 constitute the spray system. The controller commands the motor 9 and water pump 2 to operate. The output shaft of the motor 9 rotates, driving the drive sprocket to rotate. The drive sprocket and the driven sprocket are driven by the chain 6, which in turn drives the driven sprocket to rotate. The driven sprocket rotates, driving the traveling wheel 5 to rotate, causing the traveling wheel 5 of the outer support leg 101 to move along the outer track, and driving the traveling wheel 5 of the inner support leg 103 to move along the inner track 11, thereby causing the support frame 1 to rotate on the wind power foundation 10. The water pump 2 draws water from the water tank 4 through the water pipe 3 and enters the water pump 2. The water in the water pump 2 enters the spray pipe 8, and the water in the spray pipe 8 is sprayed from the nozzle 7 below onto the concrete surface of the wind power foundation 10. As the traveling wheel 5 moves, it drives the support frame 1 to rotate. The rotation of the support frame 1 drives the spray pipe 8 installed on the crossbeam 102 of the support frame 1 to rotate, thereby allowing the spray pipe 8 to spray and cure the concrete surface of the wind power foundation 10 in 360°. The automatic curing tool for outdoor large-volume concrete of wind turbine foundations disclosed in this application is installed on the upper part of the concrete of the wind turbine foundation 10. Under the action of the drive system, the spraying system can automatically and uniformly spray the concrete of the wind turbine foundation 10, ensuring the uniformity of the curing effect and improving the curing quality. It eliminates the need for manual watering, achieving automatic curing, saving manpower and resources, improving curing efficiency, and reducing curing costs and the labor intensity of workers. The automatic curing tool for outdoor large-volume concrete of wind turbine foundations disclosed in this application is particularly suitable for the curing of outdoor large-volume wind turbine foundation concrete.

[0021] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a photovoltaic panel and a charging controller are provided at the top of the crossbeam 102. The photovoltaic panel and the charging controller are connected in series by wires, and the charging controller is connected in series with the battery by wires.

[0022] Photovoltaic panels charge batteries, thus reducing the need for battery replacements. The charging controller adjusts the voltage and current output of the photovoltaic panels to match the charging requirements of the batteries, ensuring safe charging. When there is sufficient sunlight, the current generated by the photovoltaic panels is regulated by the charging controller to charge the batteries. When the batteries are fully charged, the charging controller automatically cuts off the charging circuit to prevent overcharging and damage to the batteries.

[0023] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a flow regulating valve is installed on the spray pipe 8 near the water pump 2.

[0024] The flow regulating valve is used to adjust the water output of the sprinkler pipe 8 and the nozzle 7. The water output can be adjusted according to actual needs. For example, when deep maintenance is required for the wind power foundation 10, the flow regulating valve is adjusted to increase the water output; conversely, when simple foundation maintenance is required for the wind power foundation 10, the flow regulating valve is adjusted to decrease the water output, thus improving the applicability of the maintenance tool.

[0025] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the crossbeam 102 is equipped with a timer, and the battery, the timer, the controller, and the water pump 2 are connected in series via wires to form a spray control circuit.

[0026] The timer is used to set the spraying time and spraying interval. For example, in the early stage (first three days) of the wind power foundation 10 concrete construction, the timer is set to spray once every 4 hours, in the middle stage (four to seven days) once every 6 hours, and in the later stage (after seven days) once every 12 hours. After the spraying is completed, the controller receives the timer to stop spraying and controls the motor 9 and water pump 2 to stop working. When the set time interval is reached after the spraying stops, the controller receives the timer to spray again and controls the motor 9 and water pump 2 to start working again to spray the wind power foundation 10 until the spraying is completed. The above process is repeated to ensure the timeliness and continuity of maintenance.

[0027] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the wheel surface of the walking wheel 5 is provided with an anti-slip structure.

[0028] The anti-slip structure consists of anti-slip bumps or anti-slip patterns, which increases the friction between the traveling wheel 5 and the inner track 11 and the outer track 12, making it easier for the traveling wheel 5 to move within the inner track 11 and the outer track 12.

[0029] The above description is only a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
