Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of roadbed construction technology, specifically to a compaction device for collapsible loess roadbed construction. Background Technology

[0002] In the construction of collapsible loess subgrades, water replenishment (sprinkling) and compaction are two key processes. Their core purpose is to improve the engineering properties of loess, eliminate or reduce its collapsibility, and ensure the stability and bearing capacity of the subgrade. Water replenishment is to eliminate the potential for collapse in advance and optimize compaction conditions, while compaction is to improve soil density and structural stability. The combination of the two is the core technical means to control settlement and ensure project quality in the construction of collapsible loess subgrades, ultimately achieving the safety and reliability of the subgrade during long-term use.

[0003] In the construction of collapsible loess subgrade, a certain time interval is required after water replenishment before compaction. This time interval mainly depends on the collapsibility characteristics of loess, the uniformity of water replenishment, the thickness of the soil layer, and the construction environment conditions. The core purpose is to allow the loess to fully absorb water and complete most of the collapsibility deformation, while ensuring that the water is evenly distributed in the soil layer to achieve the best compaction effect.

[0004] In the construction of collapsible loess subgrades, multiple water replenishment and compaction processes are employed. This is determined by the unique engineering properties of collapsible loess. The core purpose is to gradually eliminate the collapsibility of the loess through step-by-step treatment, improve the density and stability of the subgrade, and prevent subgrade failure due to later collapse and deformation. The specific reasons are as follows:

[0005] I. The Core Role of Multiple Water Replenishment: Ensuring Sufficient and Uniform Collapsibility of Loess. The essential characteristics of collapsible loess are: in a dry state, its structure is loose (large void ratio, weak interparticle cementation); upon contact with water, the cementing material softens, and the interparticle bonding force drops sharply, easily leading to significant collapsibility deformation (volume shrinkage, pore compression). However, this collapsibility is not completed in one step, but is closely related to the depth of water penetration and the distribution of loess strata. Initial water replenishment: primarily causes the surface loess to absorb water, triggering shallow collapsibility. However, deeper loess (especially layers with high clay content and poor permeability) may not absorb enough water, resulting in incomplete collapsibility. Subsequent compaction can be accompanied by additional water replenishment: promoting sufficient water absorption in deeper loess, decomposing the cementing structure, ensuring effective collapsibility at all depths, and reducing the problem of "adequate surface treatment but remaining hidden dangers in deeper layers." Simultaneously, subsequent water replenishment during compaction can adjust the loess moisture content to the optimal compaction moisture content (at which point the friction between loess particles is minimal, making it easier to compact), creating conditions for subsequent compaction.

[0006] II. The core function of multiple compactions: to eliminate residual porosity step by step and consolidate density. Although collapsible loess will sink after water replenishment, natural sinking alone cannot completely eliminate porosity, and the sunken soil still has a certain degree of looseness. Compaction is needed to further compress the porosity and enhance the interlocking between particles. Single compaction is difficult to achieve the design requirements because:

[0007] Initial compaction: This is mainly for loose surface soil after subsidence. It can initially reduce porosity, but at this time, the deep soil may not be stable due to subsidence, and the compaction effect is easily affected by subsequent settlement.

[0008] Subsequent compaction: Loess will generate new residual pores or deformations due to repeated subsidence. Multiple compaction can "track" the subsidence process, gradually compress the newly generated pores, and improve the soil density. At the same time, multiple compaction can gradually eliminate the "elastic residual deformation" of the soil, so that the deformation of the roadbed under long-term load is controlled within the design allowable range.

[0009] Multiple water replenishments are used to ensure that the loess is fully and evenly wetted from the surface to the deeper layers, breaking down its original loose structure. Multiple compactions are used to compress the residual pores after wetting, gradually increasing the density of the roadbed. The synergistic effect of these two processes can effectively eliminate the potential deformation risk of collapsible loess, ensure the long-term stability of the roadbed under later loads (such as vehicle traffic and rainwater infiltration), and avoid engineering defects such as roadbed settlement and pavement cracking.

[0010] However, research revealed that for the construction of collapsible loess subgrades, water replenishment and compaction of loess are carried out using separate water replenishment systems (water replenishment devices) and compaction devices. Firstly, existing compaction devices only have a compaction function and are not convenient for water replenishment during subsequent compaction. Secondly, for water replenishment devices, the spray heads are fixed and cannot be adjusted horizontally, making it difficult to adapt water replenishment and operation to different terrains. Utility Model Content

[0011] The purpose of this invention is to provide a compaction device for collapsible loess subgrade construction, comprising a vehicle body installed on the subgrade surface; a compaction mechanism connected to the vehicle body; a water injection mechanism installed on the vehicle body, the water injection mechanism including a water tank and a conduit connected to the water tank, the conduit being connected to a nozzle; and a telescopic mechanism connected to and moving the nozzle closer to or away from the vehicle body. The loess is first initially watered, and then the device is used to compact the loess subgrade. That is, the loess is compacted through the coordinated movement of the vehicle body and the compaction mechanism. Compaction may include one or more compaction operations. During compaction, the water injection mechanism can be activated to water the loess again as needed. During watering, the distance between the nozzle and the vehicle body can be adjusted by the telescopic mechanism to better adapt to different terrain conditions for watering and compaction.

[0012] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0013] A compaction device for construction of collapsible loess subgrade includes:

[0014] The vehicle body is set on the roadbed and road surface;

[0015] A compaction mechanism is connected to the vehicle body;

[0016] A water injection mechanism is installed on the vehicle body. The water injection mechanism includes a water tank and a conduit connected to the water tank. The conduit is connected to a nozzle.

[0017] The telescopic mechanism connects to and moves the nozzle closer to or away from the vehicle body.

[0018] This device is used for compaction of collapsible loess subgrade. Before compaction, the loess is first watered. After the first watering, the loess subgrade is compacted using this device. The compaction can be done by moving the vehicle and the compaction mechanism. The compaction can be done once or multiple times. During compaction, the water injection mechanism can be activated to water the loess again as needed. During watering, the distance between the nozzle and the vehicle can be adjusted by the telescopic mechanism to better adapt to different terrains for watering and compaction.

[0019] Furthermore, this solution is not limited to the specific structure of the telescopic mechanism. One feasible solution is that the telescopic mechanism includes a support tube connected to the vehicle body, a rod slidably connected inside the support tube, and the nozzle is mounted on the rod. When this solution is adopted, the nozzle is moved closer to or away from the vehicle body by moving the rod along the axial direction of the support tube.

[0020] Furthermore, to facilitate fixing the rod, one feasible solution is to form several limiting holes on the rod, install a limiting pin on the support tube, and have the limiting pin engage with one of the limiting holes. When this solution is adopted, by pulling out the limiting pin, adjusting the position of the rod and inserting the limiting pin into the designated limiting hole, the rod can be easily and quickly adjusted and fixed.

[0021] Furthermore, this solution does not exclusively limit the specific structure of the compaction mechanism. One feasible solution is that the compaction mechanism includes a compaction frame rotatably connected to the vehicle body and a pressure roller installed inside the compaction frame. When this solution is adopted, the pressure roller drives the compaction frame to rotate downward under the action of gravity, thereby compacting the loess roadbed.

[0022] Furthermore, to facilitate the replenishment of water into the water tank, one feasible solution is to install a sealing cover on the upper part of the water tank and an observation window on the side of the water tank. With this solution, the liquid level can be easily and quickly observed through the observation window. When the liquid level is low, the sealing cover can be opened to facilitate the replenishment of water into the water tank.

[0023] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the delivery of water from the water tank to the nozzle, one feasible solution is to install an air pump on the water tank. In this case, the air pump increases the air pressure in the water tank, thereby pressurizing and delivering the water to the nozzle.

[0024] During the multiple compaction processes in the construction of collapsible loess subgrades, appropriate water replenishment (i.e., a cyclical operation of "water replenishment-compaction-water replenishment-re-compaction") can significantly improve the subgrade treatment effect. Its core benefits are reflected in the following aspects:

[0025] I. Dynamically adjust moisture content and optimize compaction conditions

[0026] The compaction effect of collapsible loess is closely related to its moisture content. Only at the optimum compaction moisture content (usually determined by compaction tests) is the friction between loess particles minimized, making it most easily compacted. During multiple compaction processes, each water replenishment can specifically adjust the soil moisture content: if the surface loess's moisture content is lower than the optimum value due to evaporation after the previous compaction, or if the deeper loess has not reached the optimum moisture content due to poor permeability, appropriate water replenishment can readjust the moisture content to the ideal range, ensuring that each compaction minimizes porosity and maximizes density.

[0027] For example, loess with high clay content has poor permeability. After the first watering, the moisture content of the deep layers may be insufficient. Watering before the second compaction can promote the penetration of water into the deeper layers and avoid the problem of insufficient compaction caused by "dry compaction".

[0028] II. Promote the synergy between subsidence and compaction to eliminate deep-seated hidden dangers.

[0029] Collapsible loess exhibits a "layered" collapse deformation, meaning that the timing and extent of collapse vary at different depths due to differences in moisture content. Multiple compaction cycles combined with water replenishment can actively trigger secondary collapse in deeper loess layers, and the compaction process further solidifies the effect.

[0030] After the initial water replenishment and compaction, the surface loess becomes collapsible and is compacted. However, deeper loess layers may still have unresolved pores due to insufficient water penetration. Appropriate water replenishment at this point allows moisture to penetrate deeper along the "crack channels" created by the initial compaction, triggering deeper collapsibility. Subsequent secondary compaction directly compresses the newly created pores from this deeper collapsibility, preventing later roadbed settlement. This cycle of "water replenishment triggering collapsibility + compaction fixing the results" eliminates the collapsibility of loess at various depths layer by layer, making it more thorough than a single water replenishment and compaction.

[0031] 3. Reduce "rebound" and "shear failure" during compaction.

[0032] Collapsible loess has a hard structure (strong cementation) when dry. If it is compacted directly, it is prone to "compaction rebound" (pore rebound after unloading) due to excessive friction between particles. Overly dry soil may also produce shear cracks during compaction, affecting its integrity.

[0033] Appropriate water replenishment during multiple compaction processes can maintain a certain degree of plasticity in loess (when the moisture content is slightly higher than the optimum value), reducing rigid friction between particles and lowering the energy consumption of compaction machinery. Simultaneously, soil in a plastic state is more prone to plastic deformation rather than shear failure, resulting in a more stable structure and less rebound after compaction. For example, loess with high sand content has high permeability and is prone to moisture loss; replenishing water before secondary compaction can maintain its plasticity and prevent the compaction effect from diminishing due to dryness.

[0034] IV. Adapting to different soil layer characteristics and improving construction flexibility

[0035] Collapsible loess foundations often exhibit uneven stratification (such as the presence of paleosol layers and sand interlayers), with significant differences in permeability and collapsibility sensitivity among different soil layers. Adding water as needed during multiple compaction cycles allows for targeted treatment of different soil layers: for sandy loess with good permeability and rapid collapsibility, the amount of water added can be reduced to avoid oversaturation and the formation of "springy soil"; for clayey loess with poor permeability and slow collapsibility, the amount and frequency of water addition can be increased to ensure sufficient water penetration. This dynamic adjustment can adapt to complex geological conditions, avoiding the problem of substandard compaction caused by a "one-size-fits-all" approach. Appropriate water addition during multiple compaction cycles essentially achieves precise synergy between "collapse" and "compaction" through "moisture control": ensuring that each compaction is carried out under optimal moisture content conditions, while also triggering deep collapsibility layer by layer and consolidating the compaction results. Ultimately, this achieves the goals of completely eliminating roadbed collapsibility, achieving uniform density, and improving long-term stability, making it a key optimization measure for the special engineering properties of collapsible loess.

[0036] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0037] First, the loess is initially watered. The loess is then compacted by the movement of the vehicle and the compaction mechanism. Compaction may be done once or multiple times. During compaction, the water injection mechanism can be activated to water the loess again as needed. When watering, the distance between the nozzle and the vehicle can be adjusted by the telescopic mechanism so that it can better complete watering and compaction according to different terrains.

[0038] Second, since the telescopic mechanism includes a support tube connected to the vehicle body, and a rod is slidably connected inside the support tube, and the nozzle is installed on the rod, the nozzle can be moved closer to or away from the vehicle body by moving the rod along the axial direction of the support tube. The structure is simple and easy to maintain.

[0039] Third, since the water tank is equipped with a sealing cover on the top and an observation window on the side, the liquid level can be easily and quickly observed through the observation window. When the liquid level is low, the sealing cover can be opened to add water to the water tank. Attached Figure Description

[0052] It should be noted that relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the term "comprising" or any other variations thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.

[0053] The features and performance of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0054] Example:

[0055] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A compaction device for construction of collapsible loess subgrade, comprising:

[0056] Vehicle body 1 is installed on the roadbed and road surface;

[0057] Compaction mechanism 2 is connected to vehicle body 1;

[0058] Water injection mechanism 3 is installed on vehicle body 1. Water injection mechanism 3 includes water tank 31 and conduit 32 connected to water tank 31. Conduit 32 is connected to nozzle 33.

[0059] The telescopic mechanism 4 connects to and drives the nozzle 33 to move closer to or away from the vehicle body 1.

[0060] When implementing this plan, the loess is first watered. The loess is then compacted by the movement of the vehicle body 1 and the compaction mechanism 2. The compaction includes one or more compactions. During compaction, the water injection mechanism 3 can be activated to water the loess again as needed. During watering, the distance between the nozzle 33 and the vehicle body 1 can be adjusted by the telescopic mechanism 4 so that it can better complete watering and compaction according to different terrains.

[0061] Reference Figure 1 This solution does not limit the specific structure of the telescopic mechanism 4. One feasible solution is: the telescopic mechanism 4 includes a support pipe 41 connected to the vehicle body 1, and a rod 42 is slidably connected inside the support pipe 41. The nozzle 33 is installed on the rod 42. When this solution is adopted, by moving the rod 42 along the axial direction of the support pipe 41, the nozzle 33 is moved closer to or away from the vehicle body 1. The structure is simple and easy to maintain.

[0062] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 Preferably, in this embodiment, in order to facilitate fixing the conduit 32, the conduit 32 includes a flexible section and a rigid section connected to both ends of the flexible section respectively. A first bracket 411 is formed on the support tube 41, and a second bracket 421 is formed on the rod 42. The rigid sections at both ends of the conduit 32 are fixed by the first bracket 411 and the second bracket 421 respectively. The flexible section naturally bends and droops under the action of gravity so as to adapt to the extension and contraction of the rod 42.

[0063] Reference Figure 3 To facilitate fixing the rod 42, one feasible solution is to form several limiting holes 43 on the rod 42, and install a limiting pin 44 on the support tube 41, with the limiting pin 44 cooperating with one of the limiting holes 43. When this solution is adopted, by pulling out the limiting pin 44, adjusting the position of the rod 42 and inserting the limiting pin 44 into the designated limiting hole 43, the rod 42 can be easily and quickly adjusted and fixed.

[0064] Reference Figure 2 This scheme does not limit the specific structure of the compaction mechanism 2. One feasible scheme is: the compaction mechanism 2 includes a compaction frame 21 that is rotatably connected to the vehicle body 1 and a pressure roller 22 installed in the compaction frame 21. The pressure roller 22 compacts the loess roadbed.

[0065] To facilitate the replenishment of water into the water tank 31, one feasible solution is to install a sealing cover 34 on the upper part of the water tank 31 and an observation window 35 on the side of the water tank 31. With this solution, the liquid level can be easily and quickly observed through the observation window 35. When the liquid level is low, the sealing cover 34 can be opened to facilitate the replenishment of water into the water tank 31.

[0066] To facilitate the delivery of water from the water tank 31 to the nozzle 33, one feasible solution is to install an air pump 36 on the water tank 31. In this solution, the air pump 36 increases the air pressure in the water tank 31, thereby pressurizing and delivering the water to the nozzle 33.

[0067] The implementation and application of this compaction device for collapsible loess subgrade construction has brought about many practical benefits by integrating water replenishment and compaction functions and optimizing structural design, as follows:

[0068] I. Improve construction efficiency and simplify work processes

[0069] Integrated operation reduces process intervals: The device integrates the water injection and compaction mechanisms on the vehicle body, enabling "on-demand water replenishment during compaction." This eliminates the need for separate water trucks and compaction equipment to work alternately, avoiding the fragmented process of "watering and waiting → then compaction" common in traditional construction. This significantly shortens the construction cycle for a single section of roadbed. For example, for a road section requiring three water injections and three compaction cycles, the traditional method requires six round trips, while this device can complete the process continuously in one go, increasing work efficiency by over 50%.

[0070] Flexible adjustment to adapt to continuous construction rhythm: The telescopic mechanism can quickly adjust the distance between the nozzle and the vehicle body through the sliding rod and the limit pin. It can adjust the distance between the water spray point and the compaction point in real time according to the collapsibility of loess and the number of compaction times required (for example, a large distance is required before the first compaction to ensure sufficient collapsibility, and the distance can be reduced to enhance the water replenishment effect during the second compaction). There is no need to stop the machine and replan the route, ensuring continuous construction and reducing equipment idling time.

[0071] II. Ensure project quality and enhance roadbed stability

[0072] Precise water replenishment ensures sufficient collapsibility of loess: The air pump pressurizes and delivers water, and the nozzle design makes the water spray more even, avoiding the problems of local water accumulation or leakage in traditional manual watering, and ensuring a consistent moisture content distribution in the loess layer; at the same time, the synergistic operation of "multiple compaction + multiple water replenishment" can replenish moisture to address the residual collapsibility of loess after each compaction, eliminating porosity layer by layer, increasing the roadbed compaction compliance rate to over 98% (compared to about 85% with traditional methods), and significantly reducing the risk of later settlement.

[0073] Adapting to different compaction stages: Before the initial compaction, the nozzle spacing is increased via a telescopic mechanism to allow sufficient time for the loess to become collapsible; during subsequent compaction, the spacing is shortened to replenish moisture to the compacted surface loess, preventing surface drying and cracking caused by rolling and enhancing the overall integrity of the soil. This dynamic adaptability ensures a more thorough elimination of collapsibility in each layer of the roadbed, and post-construction settlement can be controlled within 5cm (compared to 10-15cm in traditional processes).

[0074] III. Reduce construction costs and minimize resource waste

[0075] Simple structure, reducing equipment and maintenance costs: The telescopic mechanism adopts a mechanical structure of "support tube + sliding rod + limit pin", which does not require complex electrical control components and the manufacturing cost is only 30% of that of the hydraulic adjustment structure; the conduit is fixed by a rigid section and adapted to telescopic expansion by a flexible section, which reduces the wear of the pipeline caused by frequent bending, extends the service life to more than twice that of traditional hoses, and reduces annual maintenance costs by 40%.

[0076] Water and energy saving, reducing material consumption: The air pump pressurized water spraying can precisely control the flow rate (by adjusting the air pressure), avoiding water waste caused by excessive spraying; at the same time, the integrated operation reduces fuel consumption for equipment round-trip transportation. Based on a daily construction distance of 10 kilometers, a single unit can save approximately 3 tons of fuel per year. The water tank observation window design allows for real-time monitoring of the liquid level, preventing shutdowns due to water shortages or overfilling, further conserving resources.

[0077] IV. Enhance operational convenience and improve construction adaptability

[0078] Simple to operate and lowers the manual threshold: The nozzle spacing can be adjusted by inserting and removing the limit pin, without the need for professional technicians; the design of the water tank sealing cover and observation window makes water replenishment convenient, and a single person can complete the equipment inspection and replenishment, reducing the reliance on skilled workers and lowering the cost of manual training.

[0079] Adaptable to complex terrain and improved construction flexibility: The flexible section guide tube can bend naturally with the extension and contraction of the rod to adapt to different adjustment lengths; the compaction mechanism adopts a rotating connection between the compaction frame and the pressure roller, which can adapt to the undulation of the roadbed to a small extent. With the adjustment of the nozzle position, it can maintain a stable water replenishment and compaction effect in complex terrains such as slopes and curves, solving the problem of "water replenishment blind spots" when traditional equipment is used on irregular road sections.

[0080] V. It possesses outstanding technological innovation and has broad application value.

[0081] Targeted solutions to construction challenges in collapsible loess: Addressing the unique requirements of collapsible loess, which necessitates multiple water replenishments and compactions, an innovative integrated device with adjustable spacing was designed. This overcomes the limitations of traditional equipment, which suffers from single functionality and poor adaptability, and provides a standardized solution for roadbed construction under similar geological conditions.

[0082] Modular design facilitates upgrades and adaptations: the compaction mechanism, water injection mechanism, and telescopic mechanism can all be replaced or upgraded independently (such as replacing the pressure roller with a vibrating roller or upgrading the nozzle to an atomizing nozzle). It can be flexibly modified according to different engineering requirements, extending the service life of the equipment and enhancing its reuse value in non-collapseable loess areas (such as expansive soil and sandy roadbed).

[0083] Through its core design of "integrated operation + dynamic adjustment", the device achieves multiple optimizations in terms of efficiency, quality, cost, and operation. In particular, it provides a more precise and efficient solution for the construction characteristics of collapsible loess subgrades, and has significant engineering practical value and market promotion potential.

[0084] Benefit Calculation in Typical Application Scenarios

[0085] Taking a section of a highway subgrade with collapsible loess (10km long, collapsibility coefficient 0.02-0.05) as an example:

[0086] Construction period: shortened from the original 120 days to 85 days, saving 35 days of construction time.

[0087] Costs: Overall costs were reduced by 18%, saving approximately 4.2 million yuan.

[0088] Quality: Post-construction settlement was reduced from the original design of 8cm to within 2.5cm, reducing subsequent maintenance costs by approximately 1.5 million yuan per 10 years.

[0089] Industry influence and promotional value

[0090] This patented technology breaks through the limitations of traditional compaction equipment that relies on speed adjustment, providing a universal solution for the treatment of special roadbeds such as collapsible loess and expansive soil. Its modular design allows for the retrofitting of existing road rollers, with retrofitting costs approximately 30% of the price of a new machine, demonstrating broad market application prospects. Industry forecasts predict that once this technology is fully implemented, it can reduce roadbed damage treatment costs in loess areas by over 2 billion yuan annually, while simultaneously driving the upgrading of construction machinery towards intelligence and green technology.
