Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building material testing equipment technology, and in particular to a concrete slump testing mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Concrete is usually made by mixing cement, aggregates, admixtures and water. It has many advantages such as high compressive strength, good durability and strong plasticity. Concrete slump mainly refers to the plasticity and pumpability of concrete. It is an important indicator for measuring the workability of concrete.

[0003] Currently, the main method involves placing a slump cone on a level surface, pouring in concrete, compacting it, moving the cone upwards, and measuring the height of the concrete using a measuring tape to determine the slump. However, when using the measuring tape, it is difficult to keep it level with the bottom surface, which can easily lead to visual errors and affect the accuracy of the concrete slump measurement. Therefore, we propose a concrete slump testing mechanism to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a concrete slump testing mechanism to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A concrete slump testing mechanism includes a connecting frame, a slump cylinder on the outer surface of the connecting frame, a lifting block slidably connected to the inner sidewall of the connecting frame, a movable plate slidably connected to the inside of the lifting block, an elastic element fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lifting block, the outer surface of the elastic element fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting frame, a scale fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting frame, a laser pointer fixedly connected to the outer surface of the movable plate, a tamping mechanism fixedly connected to the outer surface of the movable plate, multiple telescopic legs fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting frame, and a spirit level fixedly connected to the upper surface of the connecting frame.

[0007] In a further embodiment, the tamping mechanism includes a connecting plate, a slewing bearing is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the connecting plate, a motor is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting frame, and a gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor.

[0008] In a further embodiment, the gear meshes with a slewing bearing, an electric push rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the slewing bearing, and a tamping rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod.

[0009] In a further embodiment, a plurality of first magnetic blocks are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the collapse cylinder, and a plurality of electromagnets are fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting frame.

[0010] In a further embodiment, two second magnetic blocks are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the movable plate, and a third magnetic block is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the lifting block.

[0011] In a further embodiment, a slide cylinder is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting frame, and a funnel is slidably connected to the inner sidewall of the slide cylinder.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This device keeps the connecting frame level by adjusting the length of the telescopic legs and observing the level bubble, preventing cement from collapsing to one side. Concrete is poured into the slump cylinder and compacted by the tamping mechanism. The lifting block slides within the connecting frame, ensuring that the moving plate and the connecting frame are on the same horizontal plane. By shining a laser pointer onto the scale, the specific height of the slump can be clearly observed, effectively reducing errors caused by level and visual perception, and improving the accuracy of concrete slump measurement.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model discloses a concrete slump testing mechanism, comprising a connecting frame 1, a slump cylinder 2 on the outer surface of the connecting frame 1, a lifting block 3 slidably connected to the inner side wall of the connecting frame 1, a moving plate 4 slidably connected to the inside of the lifting block 3, an elastic element 5 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lifting block 3, the outer surface of the elastic element 5 fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting frame 1, a scale 6 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting frame 1, a laser pointer 7 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the moving plate 4, a tamping mechanism 8 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the moving plate 4, multiple telescopic legs 9 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting frame 1, and a level bubble 10 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the connecting frame 1. By sliding the lifting block 3 within the connecting frame 1, the moving plate 4 can be kept on the same plane as the connecting frame 1. By adjusting the length of the telescopic legs 9 in conjunction with the level bubble 10, the connecting frame 1 can be kept horizontal. By setting the elastic element 5, the lifting block 3 is positioned at the top, avoiding interference with the use of the slump cylinder 2. By illuminating the scale 6 with the laser pointer 7, the change in height can be accurately displayed.

The motor 803 is turned on again, and the above operation is repeated multiple times to complete the compaction of concrete.
