Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the field of sheet metal processing equipment technology, and more specifically, to a slurry spreading machine and concrete pouring equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Building panel processing typically employs a combination of surface and structural layers. For panels requiring thermal insulation, an additional thermal insulation structural layer is added on top of the aforementioned structure. The surface layer primarily serves to showcase the texture, while the structural layer fulfills strength requirements. After pouring the grout for either the surface or structural layer, a reinforcing mesh fabric must be laid. The surface layer is usually a single layer, while the structural layer can be designed as one or two layers, depending on the needs.
[0003] In existing technologies, when forming building panels, a pump truck is typically used to pump slurry into the mold cavity via a piston pump or screw pump. After drying and curing, the mold is removed, and the final product is formed. However, this manufacturing process has significant limitations and drawbacks. The equipment reduces the fluidity of the concrete, sacrifices its self-compacting properties, and requires manual compaction later, increasing labor costs. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide a slurry distribution vehicle and concrete pouring equipment, which realizes automated production of slabs, reduces labor costs, and improves the product quality of slabs.
[0005] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of the present invention provides a pulping machine, the pulping machine comprising:
[0006] The material chamber has a cross-sectional area that gradually decreases from top to bottom. The upper part of the material chamber has a material inlet, and the lower part has a slurry outlet.
[0007] The pump transfer unit is located in the lower part of the material chamber and above the slurry outlet.
[0008] At least one embodiment of this utility model also provides concrete pouring equipment for pouring materials into a mold, including:
[0009] The pouring station is used to place the molds;
[0010] The slurry distribution cart is configured to move above the pouring station to receive material and deliver it to the mold;
[0011] Mesh fabric supply components and pouring stations are distributed along the movement direction of the slurry delivery vehicle and are used to store the mesh fabric;
[0012] A mesh clamping component is installed on the sizing cart to clamp the mesh fabric stored in the mesh fabric supply component and is configured to lay the mesh fabric in the mold as the sizing cart moves.
[0013] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed herein are as follows:
[0014] The material control achieved by the slurry distribution truck successfully reduced product thickness, resulting in lightweight construction. Simultaneously, the equipment's excellent compatibility with UHPC (Ultra-High Performance Concrete) enhances its fluidity and self-compacting properties, minimizing the adverse effects of equipment factors on concrete performance. During the later curing process, strength development is stable, and the risk of cracking is significantly reduced, effectively improving product quality. The coordinated operation of the mesh feeder and mesh clamping device automates mesh laying, reducing the time and manpower required for manual mesh installation. The flexible pouring method of the slurry distribution truck also makes the material pouring process more efficient, improving overall production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0032] UHPC (Ultra-High Performance Concrete) is an advanced building material with ultra-high strength, high durability, and excellent toughness. Its high strength, long lifespan, and high toughness make it widely used in bridge engineering, building curtain walls, national defense engineering, and marine engineering. Current traditional manufacturing processes and equipment are based on modified traditional concrete construction equipment. This involves using mixer trucks for transportation, on-site mold making, and then pumping slurry into the mold cavity using piston or screw pumps. After drying and curing, the mold is removed, and the final product is formed. However, existing technologies have significant limitations and drawbacks in the early and later stages of UHPC manufacturing. The equipment reduces the flowability of UHPC, sacrifices its self-compacting properties, requires manual compaction later, increasing labor costs, and produces products at least 15mm thick, wasting materials and preventing lightweight designs. Later natural curing or simple steam curing leads to unstable strength development and a 50% increased risk of cracking. Currently, there are no lightweight UHPC precast panels, nor are there specialized production processes and equipment for this.
[0033] Given the above reasons, such as Figures 1-4As shown, it illustrates a concrete pouring device in one embodiment of the present disclosure, used to pour materials into mold a. The concrete pouring device can achieve efficient and high-quality concrete pouring and precise laying of the mesh cloth, ultimately achieving the purpose of product lightweighting, stable strength development and reduced cracking risk.
[0034] Mold A is movable, and the frame has a pouring station for pouring slurry. During operation, mold A moves to this pouring station. A slurry distribution vehicle 100 is mounted above mold A by sliding or traveling; its main function is to receive the material and deliver it to mold A as it slowly moves along a track to the pouring station. Compared to the traditional process of using a pump truck to inject slurry into the mold, this method allows for more precise control of the pouring volume and distribution of material, thereby effectively reducing product thickness, achieving lightweight design, and improving product quality.
[0035] To address the need for laying mesh fabric during the processing of building panels, a mesh fabric feeder 200 is installed on one side of mold a for feeding out the mesh fabric. Simultaneously, a mesh clamping device 300 is installed on the right side of the slurry spreading carriage 100. When the slurry spreading carriage 100 moves to the appropriate position, the mesh clamping device 300 can clamp the mesh fabric on the mesh fabric feeder 200 and pull the mesh fabric to the left along with the slurry spreading carriage, thereby achieving the effect of laying the mesh fabric onto the surface or structural layer slurry. Furthermore, the right end of the frame is equipped with a mesh cutting mechanism capable of lateral translation and cutting the mesh fabric. After the mesh fabric is laid, the cutting mechanism activates to cut the mesh fabric, so that the mesh fabric is laid on the slurry in a single layer.
[0036] This equipment is particularly suitable for UHPC (Ultra-High Performance Concrete). When using this equipment for pouring, it increases the fluidity of UHPC, fully leveraging its self-compacting properties, and avoids the problems of traditional equipment that reduce concrete fluidity and sacrifice self-compacting properties. During subsequent natural curing or simple steam curing, strength development is more stable, the risk of cracking is reduced, and product quality is significantly improved. Of course, concrete components can also be made from other types of concrete; this is not a limitation.
[0037] The bottom of the slurry distribution cart 100 is equipped with a device that allows it to slide or move along a track above the mold a. Its interior has a space for accommodating materials. When the mold a moves to the pouring position, the slurry distribution cart 100 moves to the pouring start position and begins to feed materials into the mold a, continuously completing the pouring process during the movement.
[0038] The mesh fabric supplier 200 is disposed on one side of the mold a, and mainly includes a support structure, a component for winding the mesh fabric, and a device for driving the component to rotate. When the mesh fabric needs to be laid, the drive device is activated, causing the component for winding the mesh fabric to rotate, thereby feeding out the mesh fabric.
[0039] The mesh clamping component 300 is located on the right side of the slurry spreading machine 100 and has a structure capable of clamping the mesh fabric. When the slurry spreading machine 100 approaches the mesh fabric supply component 200, the clamping structure of the mesh clamping component 300 opens and clamps the mesh fabric. Subsequently, as the slurry spreading machine 100 moves, it pulls the mesh fabric to be laid on the slurry already poured in the mold a.
[0040] By controlling the material flow through a 100-ton spreading machine, the product thickness was successfully reduced, achieving lightweighting. Simultaneously, the equipment's excellent compatibility with UHPC enhanced its flowability and self-compacting properties, minimizing the adverse effects of equipment factors on concrete performance. During the later curing process, strength development was stable, the risk of cracking was significantly reduced, and product quality was effectively improved.
[0041] The mesh fabric supplier 200 and the mesh clamping component 300 work together to automate the mesh fabric laying process, significantly reducing the time and labor costs required for manual mesh fabric laying. The flexible pouring method of the slurry truck 100 also makes the material pouring process more efficient, improving overall production efficiency.
[0042] Currently, UHPC mortar concrete is sprayed using a shotcrete machine. This machine uses a screw pump to spray high-viscosity materials, resulting in low automation and low production capacity. Ten working groups produce about 200 square meters per day, requiring a large amount of manual labor for auxiliary operations. This design is for the automated production and pouring of flat slabs, which greatly improves production capacity. Furthermore, subsequent maintenance uses automated temperature and humidity control, which greatly extends the product's lifespan and ensures a high product qualification rate.
[0043] In some examples, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the mesh clamping component 300 is positioned between the slurry outlet 101 and the mesh fabric supply component 200, thereby optimizing the coordinated operation process of mesh fabric laying and material pouring. This layout allows the mesh clamping component 300 to better cooperate with the material delivered from the slurry outlet 101 after clamping the mesh fabric, ensuring that the mesh fabric is laid on the freshly discharged material, resulting in better bonding between the mesh fabric and the material and improving the overall quality of the building slab. Simultaneously, this layout helps operators to more intuitively observe and control the mesh fabric laying and material pouring process, improving the controllability of the production process.
[0044] The slurry outlet 101 of the slurry spreading cart 100 is located below the mesh fabric supply component 200 on one side of the slurry spreading cart. The slurry outlet 101 is designed to be elongated, with its length slightly less than the width of the mold a, and its length direction is perpendicular to the moving direction of the slurry spreading cart 100. This shape allows the material to fall evenly in a strip shape into the mold a, providing a suitable material base for the laying of the mesh fabric. When the slurry spreading cart 100 moves slowly along the track above the mold a, the material is evenly fed out from the slurry outlet 101 and laid in the mold a.
[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the mesh clamping component 300 is installed on the slurry distribution carriage 100, positioned between the slurry outlet 101 and the mesh fabric supply component 200. The clamping claws of the mesh clamping component 300 extend and clamp the mesh fabric. Subsequently, as the slurry distribution carriage 100 moves, the clamping claws drive the mesh fabric to move, so that the mesh fabric is laid flat on the surface of the material just delivered from the slurry outlet 101. After one layer of material is poured and the mesh fabric is laid, the mesh cutting mechanism at the right end of the frame moves laterally to cut the mesh fabric, completing the laying of that layer.
[0046] The mesh fabric supply 200 is kept on one side of the mold a. When the mesh clamping part 300 approaches, the mesh fabric supply 200 delivers the mesh fabric appropriately according to the control of the drive device so that the mesh clamping part 300 can clamp it.
[0047] Optional, such as Figure 3 As shown, the concrete pouring equipment also includes a mesh delivery assembly with a horizontally penetrating mesh seam. The mesh fabric extends through the seam towards the slurry tank. The mesh delivery assembly can vertically position the mesh fabric, ensuring that the mesh clamping component 300 can accurately grip the mesh fabric. The concrete pouring equipment also includes a mesh cutting mechanism and an auxiliary fixing mechanism. The mesh cutting mechanism is located near the mesh fabric roller. The auxiliary fixing mechanism includes fixing clamps and an auxiliary drive component. There can be two fixing clamps, distributed on the upper and lower sides of the mesh fabric. The auxiliary drive component can drive the two fixing clamps to open and close. After the pouring device completes the pouring, the two fixing clamps close, cooperating with the mesh delivery assembly to fix the mesh fabric. The mesh cutting mechanism includes a mesh cutting blade and a mesh cutting drive component. When the fixing clamps fix the mesh fabric, the mesh cutting blade is located between the fixing clamps and the mesh delivery assembly. The mesh cutting drive component can drive the mesh cutting blade to move horizontally, thereby cutting the mesh fabric. After the mesh cutting is completed, the two fixing clamps open, thus avoiding the mesh clamping component 300.
[0048] In this embodiment, the concrete pouring equipment can automatically cut the mesh fabric through the mesh cutting mechanism, further improving the automation level of production.
[0049] The mesh clamp 300 is positioned between the slurry outlet 101 and the mesh fabric provider 200, allowing the mesh fabric to be laid promptly onto the freshly discharged material. The material's fluidity helps the mesh fabric embed better, enhancing the bond strength between the mesh fabric and the material. Actual testing shows that this layout improves the bond strength between the mesh fabric and the material in the building panel, effectively increasing the overall structural strength of the panel.
[0050] During equipment operation, operators can more clearly observe the entire process of the mesh clamping component 300 gripping the mesh fabric, the material discharge from the pulp outlet 101, and the mesh fabric being laid on the material. This allows operators to adjust parameters such as the moving speed of the pulping cart 100 and the clamping force of the mesh clamping component 300 in a timely manner based on actual conditions, such as the material discharge rate and the flatness of the mesh fabric laying, thereby better controlling the production process and improving the stability of product quality.
[0051] In some examples, a pulping machine 100 is proposed, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the material chamber 102 of the slurry distribution vehicle 100 is designed with a gradually decreasing cross-sectional area from top to bottom, with an inlet 1021 at the top and a slurry discharge outlet 101 at the bottom, optimizing the storage and transportation process of materials within the material chamber. This structural design avoids dead zones within the material chamber 102, promoting smoother material flow to the discharge outlet, reducing material residue within the material chamber, and ensuring the uniformity and stability of the discharge, thereby improving the quality and efficiency of concrete pouring. The slurry distribution vehicle 100 is equipped with a pump-material transfer unit 400, which optimizes the material transportation and discharge control process.
[0052] The material chamber 102 of the slurry distribution cart 100 is shaped like an inverted frustum or truncated cone, but can actually be various similar gradually decreasing cross-sectional shapes to ensure that the cross-sectional area gradually decreases from top to bottom. The inner wall of the material chamber 102 is treated with a smooth material to reduce friction during material flow. The upper feed inlet 1021 has a large opening to facilitate rapid material entry into the material chamber 102. The feed inlet 1021 can be equipped with a funnel-shaped feed guide device to make the material fall into the material chamber 102 more concentratedly. The lower slurry distribution outlet 101 corresponds to the position of the mold a, and the shape and size of the outlet are designed according to the width of the mold a and the required material laying width to ensure that the material can evenly cover the corresponding area of the mold a.
[0053] For example, the material chamber 102 of the slurry spreading machine 100 can be designed as a V-shaped structure with a 60° angle. The machine can have a storage space of 1 cubic meter. The entire machine is made of stainless steel and has an internal structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom to facilitate the flow of mortar and ensure sufficient feeding, so that the spreading is uniform and without gaps.
[0054] During concrete pouring, material enters the material chamber 102 through the inlet 1021. Due to the cross-sectional structure of the material chamber 102, the material is guided, flowing naturally towards the lower part with a smaller cross-sectional area and gradually converging at the slurry outlet 101. The material discharge rate can be increased by using a pump transfer unit 400, or preferably for concrete with higher viscosity, to avoid difficulties in material discharge. During this process, the material is relatively evenly distributed within the material chamber, preventing localized accumulation or blockage. As the slurry distribution vehicle 100 moves slowly above the mold a, the material flows evenly from the slurry outlet 101 and falls into the mold a, completing the pouring process.
[0055] The structure of the material chamber 102 of the slurry distribution carriage 100 ensures that the material is subjected to relatively uniform force during flow, thereby guaranteeing a relatively stable flow rate and velocity of the material flowing out from the slurry outlet 101, greatly improving the uniformity of the output. This results in a consistent thickness of the material poured into the mold a, avoiding quality problems in the boards caused by uneven material distribution. Actual production verification has shown that this material chamber structure ensures uniformity of material output, effectively improving the flatness and quality stability of the building boards.
[0056] The gradually decreasing cross-sectional area design from top to bottom allows material to flow more thoroughly to the outlet, reducing material residue on the inner wall and corners of the material cavity 102. After each pour, the amount of residual material in the material cavity is significantly reduced, lowering the difficulty and cost of cleaning the cavity and preventing residual material from affecting the performance of the material in the next pour. Compared with traditional straight-cylinder material cavities, the amount of residual material can be reduced.
[0057] The pump-material transfer unit 400 is located at the lower part of the material chamber 102 and above the slurry outlet 101, providing active driving force for the material flow and enhancing the discharge power. The slurry outlet 101 extends along the length of the slurry distribution vehicle 100 and is relatively long. In actual production, UHPC has a high viscosity, which can easily cause discontinuous discharge along the length of the slurry outlet 101, seriously affecting the uniformity of the slab thickness. The operation of the pump-material transfer unit 400 can extrude UHPC from the slurry outlet 101 through pressure, effectively overcoming these problems, ensuring stable and efficient material transportation, and maintaining a continuous and smooth discharge state. Of course, when pouring other types of concrete with lower viscosity, the pump-material transfer unit 400 may not be used, and the discharge can be completed by the gravity of the concrete itself; this is not a limitation.
[0058] In some examples, such as Figure 4 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the pulping cart 100 adds two components, a flexible sealing component 500, which can optimize the material discharge control process.
[0059] Two flexible sealing elements 500 are respectively placed on both sides of the slurry discharge port 101 and abut against each other at an included angle. This arrangement improves the discharge capacity of the equipment. When the pump transfer unit 400 is not running, the two flexible sealing elements 500 can block the material from falling. When the pump transfer unit 400 is running, they can be pushed open to allow the material to fall, achieving a good automatic opening and closing effect.
[0060] Two flexible sealing components 500 are made of high-temperature resistant, wear-resistant, and flexible rubber or silicone material. They are installed on both sides of the pulp outlet 101 and are securely connected to the pulp distribution cart 100 by an adjustable fixing device. One end of the two flexible sealing components 500 abuts against each other, thus forming an included angle. When the material flows out, they can adaptively adjust their shape according to the pressure and flow rate of the material, thereby making the discharge process more uniform and smooth.
[0061] In some examples, such as Figure 4 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the concrete distribution vehicle 100 is equipped with two discharge plates 501 and an opening drive component 502, which can optimize the concrete discharge method and flow control. At least one of the discharge plates 501 is movable, and in conjunction with the opening drive component 502, the distance between the flexible sealing components 500 can be flexibly adjusted, thus clearly determining whether concrete flows out or is locked between the two flexible sealing components 500. Through this design, the outflow and continuity of concrete can be precisely controlled according to different pouring scenarios and needs, making the concrete distribution more uniform within the pouring area, improving pouring quality, and reducing concrete structural defects caused by uneven discharge.
[0062] Two discharge plates 501 are positioned opposite each other at the discharge port of the slurry distribution vehicle 100. One discharge plate 501 is fixedly mounted on the discharge port frame of the slurry distribution vehicle, while the other discharge plate is movable via a slide rail slider mechanism or a screw nut mechanism. For example, linear slide rails are installed on both sides of the discharge port frame, and the movable discharge plate is connected to the slide rails via a slider, ensuring that it can move smoothly in a straight line along the slide rails. Flexible sealing elements 500 are respectively installed on the opposite inner edges of the two discharge plates 501 to seal the discharge port and prevent concrete leakage.
[0063] The opening drive unit 502 can be selected with different drive methods according to actual needs, commonly including electric drive, hydraulic drive, and pneumatic drive. If precise control and easy automation are required, an electric drive can be selected, which uses a motor to drive a screw and nut mechanism to move the pulp outlet plate. If a larger driving force is required and the working environment allows, a hydraulic drive is a better choice, which uses a hydraulic cylinder to push the pulp outlet plate. For some applications where equipment weight and cost are more sensitive, a pneumatic drive can provide a more economical solution, which uses a cylinder to move the pulp outlet plate.
[0064] After the concrete pouring is completed, the operator controls the opening drive component 502 via the control console to move the movable grout outlet plate 501 to a position where it fits against the fixed grout outlet plate. At this point, the sealing component 500 tightly seals the grout outlet to prevent leakage of remaining concrete. Then, the grout distribution vehicle is cleaned and maintained to prepare for the next pouring operation.
[0065] In some examples, such as Figure 4 As shown, the pump feed rotor assembly 400 consists of two pump feed rotors 401. Each pump feed rotor 401 has a rigid splined shaft as its internal support structure. This type of shaft has good strength and torque transmission capability, ensuring stable operation during operation. The outer contour of the shaft is coated with rubber, and the shaft is coated with rubber according to a specific tooth profile, ultimately forming five protrusions 4011 with soft rubber outer contours. These protrusions 4011 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the pump feed rotor 401, and their length direction is parallel to the axial direction of the pump feed rotor assembly 400. Grooves 4012 are naturally formed between two adjacent protrusions 4011.
[0066] Two pump rotors 401 work in coordination. When the pump rotor assembly 400 is running, the protrusion 4011 on one pump rotor 401 can be precisely accommodated within the groove 4012 of the other pump rotor 401 during rotation. This close coordination ensures the synchronicity and stability of the two pump rotors 401 during rotation, and also generates continuous and stable pressure when extruding the slurry, ensuring that the slurry is evenly discharged from the slurry outlet 101.
[0067] High-viscosity fluids and fluids containing particulate matter can pass between the two pump rotors 401. The mortar containing small stones can pass through normally and flow out through the mortar outlet 101.
[0068] When the concrete pouring equipment is working, two servo motors drive two pumping rotors 401 independently. After the motors start, the two pumping rotors 401 rotate simultaneously. As the pumping rotors 401 rotate, the concrete slurry located in the lower part of the material chamber 102 is drawn between the two pumping rotors 401. Due to the interaction of the protrusions 4011 and the grooves 4012, and the continuous rotation of the pumping rotors 401, the slurry is continuously pushed towards the slurry outlet 101 under the pressure of the two pumping rotors 401, and is eventually squeezed out.
[0069] The protrusion 4011 can be designed as an epicycloid, and the groove 4012 can be designed as an epicycloid. During installation, the protrusion 4011 of one pump rotor 401 is roughly engaged with the groove 4012 of another pump rotor 401. The position is then adjusted electrically by a servo motor until the load on the servo drive is minimized, which is the optimal installation position. The inner core of the pump rotor 401 can be made of 45 steel through a certain heat treatment process. The shaft surface has grooves, and the outer side is wrapped with polyurethane soft rubber. The surface of the polyurethane soft shaft has a certain degree of elasticity, allowing small particles of stone in the mortar to pass through. At the same time, the polyurethane uses an oil-containing material, making the surface easy to clean. After the equipment is used, the surface can be cleaned with a high-pressure water gun. The use of polyurethane soft rubber also has a certain buffering effect, which can tolerate the processing and installation errors of other parts. It can accommodate other errors. When the error is too large, it will generate a certain additional load on the motor, but the equipment can still operate normally.
[0070] Specifically, the soft rubber material on the outer contours of the grooves 4012 and protrusions 4011 needs to have a certain degree of elasticity. This allows concrete slurry containing particles to pass more effectively through the pump rotor 400. When encountering larger particles, the soft rubber can deform appropriately, preventing the particles from clogging the pump rotor 400 and ensuring continuous and stable operation of the equipment. Secondly, two servo motors are used to individually control the two pump rotors 401, allowing adjustment of the speed and torque of each pump rotor 401, thereby achieving precise control of the concrete slurry extrusion speed and pressure. This precise control facilitates uniform material distribution to molds of different sizes and shapes below, improving the quality and efficiency of concrete pouring.
[0071] In practical applications, the speed and torque of the pump rotor 401 can be adjusted by regulating the parameters of the servo motor, based on the characteristics of the concrete slurry, such as aggregate particle size and viscosity, as well as the specific requirements of the mold, such as pouring speed and uniformity of material distribution. For example, when processing concrete slurry with larger aggregate particle size, the speed of the pump rotor 401 can be appropriately reduced to decrease the impact of particles on the soft rubber protrusions 4011; while in cases requiring rapid pouring, the speed of the pump rotor 401 can be increased to accelerate the extrusion speed of the slurry.
[0072] In some examples, such as Figure 4 As shown, guide members 600 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the pump material transfer unit 400, and the distance between the two guide members 600 gradually decreases from top to bottom. This layout helps to effectively gather and guide the slurry extruded from the pump material transfer unit 400, allowing it to fall more accurately into the mold below.
[0073] Each guide member 600 is provided with an arc-shaped recess 601, a first inclined portion 602, and a second inclined portion 603 sequentially from top to bottom. The arc-shaped recess 601 is designed to fit the shape of the pump rotor 401, allowing the pump rotor 401 to be neatly accommodated within it. This close fit not only helps stabilize the operation of the pump rotor 401 but also guides the slurry extruded from the pump rotor 401 smoothly into the guide member 600. The first inclined portion 602 and the second inclined portion 603 are responsible for further guiding the slurry downward. Notably, the inclination angle of the first inclined portion 602 is smaller than that of the second inclined portion 603. This differentiated inclination design allows the flow speed and direction of the slurry within the guide member 600 to be gradually adjusted, ensuring that the slurry falls accurately into the mold at the appropriate speed and angle.
[0074] When the pump rotor 400 starts working and extrudes the concrete slurry, the slurry first contacts the arc-shaped recess 601 that houses the pump rotor 401. Because the shape of the arc-shaped recess 601 matches the pump rotor 401, the slurry can flow naturally along the inner wall of the arc-shaped recess 601. As the slurry moves downwards, it enters the first inclined section 602. Due to the relatively small inclination angle of the first inclined section 602, the flow velocity of the slurry here is relatively gentle, mainly serving as initial guidance and buffering. Next, the slurry continues to flow downwards to the second inclined section 603, where the larger inclination angle increases the flow velocity of the slurry. Furthermore, under the action of the gradually decreasing distance between the two guide members 600, the slurry is further gathered, ultimately falling accurately into the mold below in a more concentrated state.
[0075] The guide component 600 effectively solves the problems of dispersion and unstable flow direction that may occur after the slurry is extruded from the pump rotor 400. Its unique structural design ensures that the slurry remains within a relatively concentrated flow path throughout its journey from the pump rotor 400 to the die, greatly improving the accuracy of material distribution. Simultaneously, the arc-shaped recess 601 supports and guides the pump rotor 401, helping to reduce swaying during operation and improving the stability and reliability of the entire pump rotor 400.
[0076] In actual concrete pouring operations, depending on the size and shape of different molds and the characteristics of the concrete slurry, such as viscosity and fluidity, some parameters of the guide member 600 may need to be adjusted. For example, for more viscous concrete slurry, the inclination angles of the first inclined portion 602 and the second inclined portion 603 can be appropriately increased to accelerate the flow rate of the slurry and prevent it from accumulating within the guide member 600. For molds with special shapes, it may be necessary to fine-tune the distance between the two guide members 600 or optimize the curvature of the arc-shaped recess 601 to ensure that the slurry can accurately fall into the designated position of the mold.
[0077] Since the material guide 600 comes into direct contact with the concrete slurry, it needs to be cleaned promptly after each use. If cement and other components in the concrete slurry remain on the surface of the material guide 600 for an extended period, they may harden and affect its normal function. A high-pressure water gun can be used to rinse the material guide 600 to ensure that the surfaces of the arc-shaped recess 601, the first inclined portion 602, and the second inclined portion 603 are free of residual slurry.
[0078] In some examples, the pump rotor 401, in addition to the existing rigid spline shaft and external rubber-coated protrusions 4011, is further covered with an elastic rubber layer 4013. This elastic rubber layer 4013 has good flexibility and wear resistance, further enhancing the adaptability of the pump rotor 401 when in contact with concrete slurry. It can buffer the impact of aggregates in concrete on the pump rotor 401 to a certain extent, reducing wear and extending the service life of the pump rotor 401. At the same time, the elasticity of the elastic rubber layer 4013 also allows the pump rotor 401 to form better friction with the concrete slurry during rotation, which helps to extrude and transport the slurry more efficiently.
[0079] The distance between the arc-shaped recess 601 and the pump rotor 401 varies: The distance between the arc-shaped recess 601 on the guide member 600 and the pump rotor 401 is designed to gradually decrease from top to bottom. At the top of the pump rotor 401, there is a relatively large distance between the arc-shaped recess 601 and the pump rotor 401, which provides sufficient space for the concrete slurry falling from the material chamber 102 to smoothly enter the area between the pump rotor 401 and the arc-shaped recess 601. As the pump rotor 401 rotates and the slurry is conveyed, the distance between the arc-shaped recess 601 and the pump rotor 401 gradually decreases at the bottom of the pump rotor 401. This gradually decreasing distance can further compress and guide the slurry, making the slurry flow downward more concentratedly and orderly when leaving the area between the pump rotor 401 and the arc-shaped recess 601.
[0080] When the concrete pouring equipment is running, the motor drives the pump rotor 401 to rotate. During rotation, the pump rotor 401, equipped with an elastic adhesive layer 4013, continuously compresses and conveys the concrete slurry falling from the material chamber 102 between itself and the arc-shaped recess 601. As the distance between the arc-shaped recess 601 and the pump rotor 401 gradually decreases from top to bottom, the slurry experiences gradually increasing compressive force, thus being pushed more tightly downwards. Simultaneously, the friction between the elastic adhesive layer 4013 and the inner surface of the arc-shaped recess 601 also helps to drive the slurry downwards.
[0081] This structural design brings several technical benefits. First, the presence of the elastic adhesive layer 4013 improves the adaptability of the pump rotor 401 to concrete slurries with different properties. Whether the slurry has high viscosity or large aggregate particle size, it can pass through the pump rotor 401 more effectively. Second, the gradually decreasing distance between the arc-shaped concave part 601 and the pump rotor 401 effectively improves the slurry conveying efficiency and the uniformity of distribution. As the slurry flows downward, the gradually decreasing spacing can perform secondary compression and combing of the slurry, making the slurry more evenly distributed when it leaves the guide member 600, thereby improving the quality of concrete pouring.
[0082] If the concrete slurry used has a high viscosity, the elastic modulus of the elastic adhesive layer 4013 can be adjusted appropriately, and a more flexible material can be selected to better adapt to the flow characteristics of the high-viscosity slurry and reduce the risk of clogging. Simultaneously, the initial distance between the arc-shaped recess 601 and the pump rotor 401, i.e., the top position, can be appropriately increased to provide more sufficient entry space for the high-viscosity slurry. When encountering concrete with large aggregate particle sizes, in addition to relying on the elastic buffer of the elastic adhesive layer 4013, a layer of elastic and wear-resistant padding can be added to the surface of the arc-shaped recess 601 to further protect it and prevent it from being scratched by large-diameter aggregate. In some pouring processes with high requirements for material distribution speed, the gradient of the distance reduction between the arc-shaped recess 601 and the pump rotor 401 can be appropriately reduced, allowing the slurry to be discharged within a shorter distance.
[0083] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, mold a is conveyed by a conveying assembly, which can be a roller conveyor or a conveyor belt, etc., as long as it can convey mold a. A limiting component 700 is installed on the side of the moving path of the pulping cart 100 near the mesh roller. The limiting component 700 can act as a stop pin and is connected to a mechanism that can control lifting or swinging. For example, an electric push rod can be used to achieve the lifting action of the limiting component 700. One end of the electric push rod is fixed to the equipment base, and the other end is securely connected to the bottom of the limiting component 700. If a swinging method is used, a small motor can drive an eccentric wheel, which is connected to the rotating shaft of the limiting component 700. The rotation of the motor drives the eccentric wheel, thereby making the limiting component 700 rotate upwards.
[0084] The limiting component 700 is mainly used for the precise positioning of the concrete placing cart 100. When the concrete placing cart 100 moves along the track towards the placement position of mold a, the control system issues a command just before reaching the preset placement starting point. If the limiting component 700 is a lifting type, the electric push rod receives the command and begins to work, pushing the limiting component 700 upwards until it reaches a height that can stop the concrete placing cart 100 from moving further. If it is a swing type, a small motor starts, driving the eccentric wheel to rotate, causing the limiting component 700 to rotate upwards to a suitable angle, blocking the concrete placing cart 100. In this way, the concrete placing cart 100 is accurately positioned above mold a at the appropriate placement position, ensuring the accuracy of the placement position and improving the precision of concrete pouring.
[0085] In practical applications, considering the size differences of different molds a and the diversity of fabric positions, the positioning height or angle of the limiting component 700 should be adjustable. For example, different rising height parameters can be set in the control program of the electric push rod and adjusted according to the specific requirements of mold a. For the swing-type limiting component 700, the upward rotation angle of the limiting component 700 can be adjusted by changing the rotation angle of the motor to adapt to different fabric requirements.
[0086] The vibrating element 800 is typically installed on the bottom or side of mold a. Taking the bottom installation as an example, the vibrating element 800 includes a vibrating motor, a damping spring, and a connecting bracket. The vibrating motor is fixed to the connecting bracket by bolts, and the connecting bracket is tightly connected to the bottom of mold a. The damping spring is installed between the connecting bracket and the ground support structure, serving to buffer and reduce the transmission of vibration to surrounding equipment.
[0087] Once the concrete is poured into mold a, the vibrator 800 begins operation. When the vibrating motor is powered on, the eccentric block inside the motor rotates at high speed, generating centrifugal force, which causes the entire vibrator 800 to vibrate at high frequency. This vibration is transmitted to mold a through the connecting bracket, causing mold a to reciprocate. Under the action of vibration, air in the concrete slurry inside mold a is expelled, the aggregate distribution becomes more uniform, the density and smoothness of the concrete are improved, and the internal porosity and voids of the concrete are reduced, thus improving the quality of the concrete product.
[0088] To optimize the vibration parameters of the vibrating component 800, considering the different types and sizes of molds (a) and the varying characteristics of concrete slurry, the following optimizations are necessary. For larger molds (a), the power of the vibrating motor can be increased to enhance vibration intensity and ensure sufficient vibration of the concrete within the entire mold (a). For concrete slurry with higher viscosity, the vibration frequency can be appropriately increased to facilitate flow and air release. Simultaneously, by installing sensors within the mold (a), the vibration status of the concrete can be monitored in real time, and the parameters of the vibrating motor can be automatically adjusted based on the monitoring data, achieving intelligent control of the vibration process.
[0089] In some examples, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, a punching mechanism is added. This mechanism can move horizontally above mold a and punch holes in the mesh fabric within mold a. After punching, it swings to either side of mold a to make way, avoiding interference with the conveying of the mold a. The punching mechanism includes a swinging component, a mesh fabric fixing component, and a punching component 900. The main component of the punching mechanism is the punching component 900. To achieve horizontal translation of the punching component 900, the swinging component can be implemented using a cylinder-driven swing arm. On the frame of the concrete pouring equipment, the punching component 900 moves horizontally to rotate to a suitable position above the mesh fabric for punching. After punching, the punching component 900 moves horizontally to one side of mold a to avoid interfering with the movement of the spreading trolley 100.
[0090] When mold a moves to the designated position and the mesh cloth is laid on top of mold a, the control system starts the swing assembly to move the mesh cloth fixing assembly and the punching part 900 horizontally to the punching position of the mesh cloth.
[0091] Upon reaching the punching position, punching component 900 begins operation. It punches holes to create installation space for the embedded part. After punching, a cylinder or hydraulic device drives the punching pin holder upwards to reset. Then, the translation mechanism restarts, and punching component 900 moves a certain distance horizontally, preparing for the next punching operation. This process repeats continuously until the mesh cloth above mold a has punched all the required punching positions. Multiple punching components 900 can be installed, located on either side above mold a, allowing all punching operations to be completed in a single action.
[0092] The side of the frame is provided with a punching part 900 that can swing horizontally toward the central axis of the mold 1. One casting table can be equipped with 6 punching positions, so that multiple punching can be completed at the same time.
[0093] By setting a horizontally movable punching component 900 above mold a, the mesh fabric can be punched before concrete pouring. These holes allow concrete to better penetrate the mesh fabric, enhancing the bond between the mesh fabric and concrete, and improving the overall strength and durability of the concrete product. Simultaneously, the automated horizontal movement of the punching component 900 improves punching efficiency and accuracy, ensuring consistent punching quality in the mesh fabric.
[0094] In some examples, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 includes a swing arm, a rotating shaft, a drive motor, and a support plate. The rotating shaft is mounted on the frame of the equipment and fixedly connected to one end of the swing arm, allowing the swing arm to swing horizontally around the rotating shaft. The drive motor is connected to the rotating shaft via a coupling, providing power for the swing arm's swing.
[0095] When punching is required on the mesh fabric inside mold a, the drive motor starts, causing the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn causes the swing arm to swing horizontally around the rotating shaft. The swing arm swings from one side of mold a to above mold a, at which point the support plate is directly above mold a, providing stable support for subsequent mesh pressing and punching operations. After the punching operation is completed, the drive motor reverses, and the swing arm swings in the opposite direction, returning to a clearance position on one side of mold a, without affecting subsequent concrete pouring or other processes on mold a.
[0096] By setting a horizontally swingable mesh cloth fixing component 1000, its position can be flexibly adjusted to provide necessary support for the mesh cloth during punching, preventing deformation or displacement of the mesh cloth due to uneven force during punching, thereby ensuring the accuracy and quality of punching. For molds a of different sizes, an adjustable-length swing arm can be designed. By setting multiple fixing holes on the swing arm, the distance between the support plate and the rotating shaft can be adjusted according to the width of mold a to meet the needs of different mold specifications.
[0097] The lifting component 1100 includes a lifting drive, a lifting frame, a pressure plate, and guide rods. The lifting drive can be a cylinder or an electric push rod. The lifting frame is driven by the lifting drive to achieve lifting action. The pressure plate is fixed to the bottom of the lifting frame, and its area is slightly larger than the area of the mesh cloth inside mold a that needs to be pressed down. Through holes 1002 are evenly distributed on the pressure plate, and the position and size of these through holes 1002 correspond to the punch of the punching component 900. The guide rods are vertically installed on both sides of the pressure plate and cooperate with the guide sleeves on the equipment frame or the mesh cloth fixing assembly 1000 to ensure the stability and verticality of the lifting component 1100 during the lifting process.
[0098] Once the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 swings above mold a, the lifting component 1100 begins operation. The lifting component 1100 descends via the extension and retraction of a cylinder or electric push rod. When the pressure plate contacts the mesh fabric, it presses the mesh fabric firmly against the support plate, ensuring that the mesh fabric does not move during punching and creating conditions for accurate punching. After punching is completed, the lifting component 1100 rises to its original position, releasing the pressure on the mesh fabric.
[0099] The lifting component 1100 effectively presses the mesh fabric into the correct position, preventing displacement during punching and improving punching accuracy. A layer of elastic rubber pad can be attached to the side of the pressure plate that contacts the mesh fabric. This increases friction between the pressure plate and the mesh fabric, better securing the mesh fabric, and prevents damage to the mesh fabric under pressure. Furthermore, to accommodate mesh fabrics of varying thicknesses, different lifting stroke parameters can be set in the lifting frame's control program and adjusted according to the actual thickness of the mesh fabric.
[0100] The punching part 900 is used to punch out the mounting holes for the embedded parts. To achieve the lifting and lowering movement of the punching part 900 relative to the lifting part 1100, a cylinder or an electric push rod can be used to drive the movement. The fixed end of the electric push rod is installed on the lifting part 1100. By controlling the extension and retraction of the electric push rod, the punching part 900 can press out the mounting holes for the embedded parts on the mesh fabric.
[0101] When the mesh fixing component 1000 swings above the mold a and the lifting component 1100 descends to press down on the mesh, the punching component 900 begins preparation for the punching operation. The control system confirms the starting position of the electric push rod and the punching stroke according to the preset embedded part mounting hole distribution program.
[0102] The punch 900 passes through the through hole 1002 on the lifting component 1100 and acts precisely on the mesh fabric. As the electric push rod extends further, the punch 900 gradually penetrates the mesh fabric, punching out the mounting holes for the embedded parts. Because the punching position of the punch 900 is consistent with the preset position of the embedded part, the punched mounting holes are accurately positioned, providing suitable positioning for subsequent installation of the embedded parts.
[0103] The electric push rod retracts, causing the punching component 900 to return to its original position and move away from the mesh fabric. At this time, the lifting component 1100 rises to release the pressure on the mesh fabric, and the mesh fabric fixing component 1000 swings back to the side of mold a, completing the entire punching process. Mold a can then proceed to the subsequent concrete pouring process. During the pouring process, the embedded parts can be accurately installed through the installation holes and tightly bonded to the mesh fabric and concrete.
[0104] In some examples, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9As shown, the punching mechanism of this concrete pouring equipment has been further optimized. The mesh cloth fixing component 1000 is designed to swing horizontally, thereby enabling the punching component 900 to switch between two positions: above and to one side of mold a, meeting the needs of different processes. The supporting surface 1001 of the mesh cloth fixing component 1000 supports the mesh cloth from the bottom, providing stable support for the punching operation. The lifting and lowering movement of the punching component 900 relative to the supporting surface 1001 realizes the punching action on the mesh cloth. Through this coordinated design, the accuracy and efficiency of the punching process are ensured, improving the pretreatment quality of the mesh cloth in concrete pouring.
[0105] The punching mechanism includes a mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 and a punching component 900. The mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 is horizontally oscillating on one side of the mold a and is configured to move the punching component 900 between a position above the mold a and a position on one side of the mold a. It has a support surface 1001 for supporting the mesh fabric from the bottom. The punching component 900 is configured to move up and down relative to the support surface 1001 and to punch holes in the mesh fabric supported by the support surface 1001.
[0106] The mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 is horizontally oscillating on one side of mold a via a rotating shaft or similar hinged structure. The rotating shaft is mounted on a fixed bracket of the equipment, and the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is controlled by a drive device, which can be a motor with a reducer, or a hydraulic swing cylinder. Taking a hydraulic swing cylinder drive as an example, after startup, the hydraulic swing cylinder actuates, thereby driving the rotating shaft to rotate, thus allowing the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 to swing smoothly between a position above mold a and a position on one side of mold a. The swing angle can be adjusted according to actual needs, generally between 90° and 180°, to ensure that the punching part 900 can accurately reach above mold a for punching operations, and after punching, move to one side of mold a for other processes.
[0107] The support surface 1001 is located on the upper surface of the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000, and its shape and size are designed according to the size and shape of the mesh fabric. Typically, the support surface 1001 is a planar structure with a smooth surface to reduce frictional damage to the mesh fabric. To better support the mesh fabric, anti-slip textures or rubber pads can be provided on the support surface 1001 to increase friction with the mesh fabric and prevent it from slipping during support. The edges of the support surface 1001 can be chamfered to avoid scratching the mesh fabric.
[0108] The punching component 900 moves up and down relative to the supporting surface 1001 via a lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism can take various forms, such as a screw and nut mechanism, a pneumatic cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder. Taking a pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder as an example, a fixed bracket is installed on the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000, and the pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder is mounted on the fixed bracket. The punching component 900 is installed at the output end of the pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder. When the pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder actuates, it drives the punching component 900 to punch holes in the mesh fabric. The pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder is driven by controlling the pressure of gas or liquid to push the piston, thereby driving the punching component 900 to move up and down.
[0109] The lower end of the punched part 900 is provided with a punch. The shape and size of the punch are determined according to the required punching shape and size of the mesh fabric. Common shapes include round and square. When the punched part 900 rises to its highest point, the distance between the punch and the supporting surface 1001 must be sufficient to accommodate the mesh fabric. When the punched part 900 descends to its lowest point, the punch must be able to penetrate the mesh fabric to complete the punching action.
[0110] First, the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 swings to one side of mold a under the action of the driving device. The mesh fabric is then placed on the supporting surface 1001, and the anti-slip structure of the supporting surface 1001 ensures that the mesh fabric is placed stably.
[0111] The mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 swings to a position above mold a, with the supporting surface 1001 holding the mesh fabric positioned above mold a. At this time, the punching part 900 descends under the drive of the lifting mechanism, and the punch performs a punching operation on the mesh fabric. Depending on the punching requirements of the mesh fabric, the punching part 900 can perform multiple lifting and lowering actions to complete multiple punching operations.
[0112] After punching is completed, the punched part 900 rises to the initial position. The mesh cloth fixing assembly 1000 swings again to the side of mold a so that the punched mesh cloth can be removed from the supporting surface 1001 for subsequent processes, and at the same time prepares for the next punching operation.
[0113] The rapid swing of the mesh fixing component 1000 and the efficient lifting and lowering movement of the punching component 900 enable the punching operation of the mesh to be completed quickly. Compared with traditional manual punching or single fixed-position punching methods, the punching efficiency is improved, the pretreatment time of the mesh before concrete pouring is shortened, and the overall production efficiency is improved.
[0114] The stable support of the mesh fabric by the supporting surface 1001 and the precise lifting control of the punched part 900 ensure the accuracy of the punching position and the consistency of the punching shape. Compared with traditional methods, the punching error is reduced, improving the performance of the mesh fabric in concrete pouring and enhancing the quality stability of concrete products.
[0115] The flexible swing of the mesh fixing component 1000 between above and to one side of the mold a allows the punching mechanism to better coordinate with other processes of the concrete pouring equipment. For example, after punching is completed, the mesh fixing component 1000 can be quickly moved to one side, facilitating the movement of the slurry delivery vehicle 100 to pull and lay the mesh or perform other related operations, thus improving the overall flexibility and ease of operation of the equipment.
[0116] In some examples, such as Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, a lifting component 1100 is added to the original punching mechanism to optimize the control of the mesh punching process and improve punching quality and stability. The lifting component 1100 moves up and down on the mesh fixing assembly 1000, using the pressing surface 1101 to press the mesh down from above, forming an upper and lower clamp with the supporting surface 1001. This not only prevents the mesh from shifting due to force during punching, ensuring accurate punching position, but also provides a more stable support environment for punching. Especially for thinner or softer meshes, it effectively avoids wrinkles or damage during punching, thereby improving the overall punching effect and ensuring the pretreatment quality of the mesh during concrete pouring.
[0117] The punching mechanism also includes a lifting member 1100, which is movably mounted on the mesh cloth fixing assembly 1000 and has a pressing surface 1101 for pressing the mesh cloth down from above.
[0118] The lifting component 1100 is mounted on the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 via a linear slide bar or similar guide structure. The linear slide bar is installed on the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000, and the lifting component 1100 engages with the linear slide bar through a sliding hole to ensure smooth lifting and good straightness. The device driving the lifting component 1100 can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or a screw-nut mechanism. Taking a cylinder drive as an example, the cylinder body is fixed on the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000, and the piston rod is connected to the lifting component 1100. When compressed air is introduced into the cylinder, the piston rod extends or retracts, causing the lifting component 1100 to rise or fall along the linear slide bar. If a screw-nut mechanism is used, the screw is installed on the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 and driven by a motor. The nut is fixedly connected to the lifting component 1100, and the rotation of the motor drives the screw to rotate, thereby causing the lifting component 1100 to rise or fall.
[0119] The pressing surface 1101 is located on the lower surface of the lifting component 1100. Its shape is typically designed as a plane corresponding to the supporting surface 1001 to ensure uniform pressing of the mesh fabric. The pressing surface 1101 is made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity and wear resistance. The elastic material allows it to better conform to the surface of the mesh fabric when pressing it down, avoiding hard damage to the mesh fabric, while also providing a certain degree of cushioning to reduce the impact force on the mesh fabric during punching. The wear-resistant properties ensure that the pressing surface 1101 is not easily worn during long-term use, extending its service life.
[0120] To accommodate different types of mesh fabrics, the pressure of the pressing surface 1101 on the mesh fabric is adjustable. If a cylinder-driven lifting component 1100 is used, the pressure of the pressing surface 1101 on the mesh fabric can be changed by adjusting the cylinder's air intake pressure. In the case of a screw-nut mechanism, the pressure of the pressing surface 1101 on the mesh fabric can be monitored and adjusted in real time by adjusting the motor torque or by installing a pressure sensor and feedback control system between the screw and the lifting component 1100. For example, for thinner and more easily deformed mesh fabrics, the pressing pressure can be appropriately reduced; for thicker and more resilient mesh fabrics, the pressing pressure can be increased to ensure good punching results under various conditions.
[0121] After the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 swings to one side of mold a and places the mesh fabric, it swings again to above mold a. At this time, the lifting component 1100 descends under the action of the driving device, causing the pressing surface 1101 to gradually approach the mesh fabric. After the pressing surface 1101 contacts the mesh fabric, it continues to descend a certain distance, adjusting to a suitable pressing pressure according to the type of mesh fabric, pressing the mesh fabric onto the supporting surface 1001.
[0122] After the mesh fabric is stably pressed down, the punching component 900 begins to descend to perform the punching operation. Because the mesh fabric is clamped from above and below, it will not shift, wrinkle, or break during the punching process, ensuring the accuracy of the punching position and the quality of the punching. After the punching component 900 completes the punching action and rises, the lifting component 1100 remains in a pressed-down state, awaiting the next punching operation or adjustment of the punching position.
[0123] Once all punching operations are completed, the punched part 900 rises to its initial position, and the lifting part 1100 rises under the action of the driving device, releasing the downward pressure on the mesh fabric. Subsequently, the mesh fabric fixing assembly 1000 swings to one side of mold a, facilitating the removal of the punched mesh fabric and proceeding to the next round of operations.
[0124] By fixing the mesh fabric by pressing it down with the lifting component 1100, the displacement deviation of the mesh fabric during the punching process is reduced compared to when the lifting component is not installed. This makes the punching position more precise, the punching size more in line with design requirements, improves the adaptability of the mesh fabric in concrete pouring, and thus enhances the quality stability of concrete products.
[0125] The elastic material and pressure adjustment function of the pressure surface 1101 greatly reduce the occurrence of wrinkles and damage to the mesh fabric during the punching process. For fragile mesh fabrics, the damage rate is reduced, ensuring the integrity and performance of the mesh fabric, reducing material waste, and lowering production costs.
[0126] The pressure of the lower pressure surface 1101 can be flexibly adjusted according to the characteristics of different types of mesh fabrics, making the punching mechanism applicable to a wider range of mesh fabrics. Compared with traditional punching mechanisms, its adaptability to different mesh fabrics is improved, expanding the application range of concrete pouring equipment and meeting diverse production needs.
[0127] In some examples, such as Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the punching component 900 can be raised and lowered in two ways: it can move with the lifting component 1100 and it can also be raised and lowered independently relative to it. This optimizes the function of the punching mechanism, improves the flexibility and accuracy of punching, better adapts to the punching requirements of different mesh fabrics, and improves the quality and efficiency of punching. Furthermore, the moving design that moves with the lifting component 1100 increases the distance between the lifting component 1100 and the lower pressure surface 1101. This ensures that even if the mesh fabric undergoes some up and down changes after the mesh fabric fixing component 1000 swings, it will still be located precisely between the lifting component 1100 and the lower pressure surface 1101, without any misalignment issues.
[0128] The punched part 900 is configured to move up and down following the lifting part 1100, and is capable of moving up and down relative to the lifting part 1100.
[0129] The cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or other linear drive mechanism that drives the punching part 900 to move can be connected to the lifting part 1100 via a connecting frame, thereby enabling synchronous lifting and lowering with the lifting part 1100. The cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or other linear drive mechanism can also independently drive the punching part 900 to perform the punching action, thus completing the punching process.
[0130] During operation, the mesh fabric fixing component 1000 is in place, the lifting component 1100 presses down on the mesh fabric, and the punching component 900 follows to a position close to the mesh fabric. Based on the characteristics of the mesh fabric, the control system drives the punching component 900 to rise and fall relative to the mesh fabric, resetting after punching. The lifting component 1100 rises, the mesh fabric fixing component 1000 moves away, and the punched mesh fabric is removed, ready for the next operation.
[0131] The dual lifting mechanism enhances the punching capability to adapt to different mesh fabrics, meeting diverse production needs. Controlling the relative lifting distance reduces punching depth errors, thus improving the quality of concrete products. It allows for rapid adaptation to different mesh fabrics, reducing equipment adjustment time, increasing punching efficiency, and ultimately reducing costs and increasing efficiency.
[0132] In some examples, such as Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, in the punching mechanism of the concrete pouring equipment, through holes 1002 are provided on the supporting surface 1001 and the pressing surface 1101. The punching component 900 punches the mesh fabric through the through holes 1002, thereby optimizing the punching process and improving punching accuracy and quality. The through holes 1002 provide precise guidance for the punching component 900, ensuring that the punch acts perpendicularly on the mesh fabric and reducing punching deviation. At the same time, this structure can effectively limit the punching area of the mesh fabric, preventing excessive deformation or damage to the mesh fabric during the punching process, thereby improving the overall punching effect and the performance of the mesh fabric in concrete pouring.
[0133] Both the supporting surface 1001 and the pressing surface 1101 have through holes 1002. The mesh cloth is located on one side of the through hole 1002. After the punching part 900 moves up and down, it passes through the through hole 1002 to punch holes in the mesh cloth.
[0134] The through holes 1002 on the supporting surface 1001 and the pressing surface 1101 are positioned correspondingly, and their distribution is determined according to the perforation pattern and density of the mesh fabric. For example, if the mesh fabric needs to be perforated uniformly, the through holes 1002 are arranged according to a certain spacing rule; if the perforation pattern is a specific shape, such as a circular array or a rectangular array, the through holes 1002 are also arranged in a matching shape accordingly. The number of through holes 1002 is set according to the number of perforations required for the mesh fabric, ensuring that each perforation position has a corresponding through hole 1002.
[0135] The through hole 1002 is usually circular in shape, which is compatible with the shape of the punch of the punching part 900. Its diameter is slightly larger than that of the punch, which can ensure that the punch passes through smoothly and also provide a certain guiding function.
[0136] When the punching part 900 descends to punch, the punch aligns with the through hole 1002 on the supporting surface 1001 and acts perpendicularly on the mesh fabric under the guidance of the through hole 1002. After passing through the mesh fabric, the punch continues to pass through the corresponding through hole 1002 on the pressing surface 1101. During this process, the through hole 1002 restricts the movement trajectory of the punch, keeping it perpendicular and ensuring accurate punching position. To further improve positioning accuracy, a positioning pin or positioning block can be provided on the punching part 900 to cooperate with the positioning groove or positioning hole around the through hole 1002, achieving positioning before punching.
[0137] The punching depth is controlled by adjusting the lifting stroke of the punching component 900. Once the punch has passed through the through hole 1002 on the lower pressure surface 1100 by a certain distance, the punching action is complete, and the punching component 900 rises to its original position. This depth control process ensures that the punch completely penetrates the mesh fabric without damaging other components below the mesh fabric due to over-punching.
[0138] During operation, the mesh fabric fixing component 1000 swings to one side of mold a, placing the mesh fabric on the support surface 1001, ensuring that the mesh fabric covers the through hole 1002 on the support surface 1001. The mesh fabric fixing component 1000 swings above mold a, the lifting component 1100 descends, and the pressing surface 1101 contacts and presses down on the mesh fabric. At this time, the mesh fabric is clamped between the support surface 1001 and the pressing surface 1101, and is located on one side of the through hole 1002. Simultaneously, the punching component 900 aligns with the through hole 1002 on the support surface 1001 for positioning. The punching component 900 descends, and the punch passes through the through hole 1002 on the support surface 1001 to punch a hole in the mesh fabric. Then, it passes through the corresponding through hole 1002 on the pressing surface 1101, completing the punching and rising to reset. The lifting component 1100 rises, the mesh fabric fixing component 1000 swings to one side of mold a, removes the punched mesh fabric, and prepares for the next punching operation.
[0139] The through hole 1002 provides guidance for the punched part 900, reducing the punching position deviation compared to when there is no such structure, ensuring the accuracy of the punching position of the mesh cloth, improving the compatibility of the mesh cloth with the concrete casting mold, and thus improving the quality stability of the concrete products.
[0140] The 1002 through-hole restricts the punching area, reducing excessive local deformation or damage to the mesh fabric during the punching process. For fragile mesh fabrics, the breakage rate is reduced, ensuring the integrity and performance of the mesh fabric, and reducing material waste and production costs.
[0141] This structure makes the punching operation more standardized and regulated. Operators do not need to pay too much attention to the punching position and angle, which reduces the difficulty of operation, improves punching efficiency, speeds up the pretreatment of the mesh cloth before concrete pouring, and improves the overall production efficiency.
[0142] In some examples, such as Figure 7 As shown, the concrete distribution vehicle 100, serving as a concrete hopper distribution module, also includes a motor mounting plate 103. A distribution motor 104 is mounted on the motor mounting plate 103 and connected to the pump rotor 401 to drive its rotation. A bearing support 105 is mounted on the motor mounting plate 103, supporting the rotatable pump rotor 401. A mechanical seal kit 106 is positioned between the pump rotor 401 and the bearing support 105 to ensure a seal. A sealing plate 107 can also be installed on the concrete distribution vehicle 100, through which the pump rotor 401 connects to the distribution motor 104, thus sealing the pump rotor 401 within the material chamber 102 to prevent concrete leakage.
[0143] Two sets of components are installed, including the motor mounting plate 103, the feeding motor 104, the bearing support 105, the mechanical seal kit 106, and the pump rotor 401, symmetrically mounted on the left and right sides. The feeding motor 104 is a servo motor, connected to the pump rotor 401 via a reducer to drive the pump rotor 401. The feeding motor 104 is a servo motor used in conjunction with a worm gear reducer. A PLC enables the two servo motors to rotate simultaneously on both sides of the pump rotor 401. The servo driver controls the rotational speed of the pump rotor 401, allowing control of the extruded slurry pressure through different rotational speeds.
[0144] In some examples, such as Figure 8 As shown, the slurry distribution vehicle 100 is mounted on the pouring vehicle base 108. The pouring vehicle base 108 includes two linear sliders 109 and a linear guide rail 110, enabling the slurry distribution vehicle 100 to move along the linear guide rail. The linear sliders 109 and the linear guide rail 110 reduce the friction of the lateral movement drive while ensuring positional accuracy. The travel motor 111 is mounted on the frame and connected to the synchronous pulley 113 via a connecting shaft 112, forming a drive assembly.
[0145] The bearing housing 114 is used to install the synchronous pulley 113. The synchronous belt 115 is wound around the synchronous pulley 113. The synchronous pulley 113 includes a driving pulley and a driven pulley and is wound around the driving pulley and the driven pulley in a ring. The bottom of the synchronous pulley 113 is connected to the base 108 of the pouring vehicle. The synchronous pulley 113 and the base 108 of the pouring vehicle are fixed together by the pouring vehicle connecting pressure plate 116 on both sides. When the travel motor 111 rotates, it drives the driving pulley to rotate. The straight end of the ring synchronous belt moves back and forth, driving the base 108 of the pouring vehicle to move back and forth, realizing the lateral movement of the slurry distribution vehicle 100.
[0146] In this embodiment, the overall modular design adopts an independent pulping machine 100, a mesh fabric supply component 200, a mesh clamping component 300, and a vibrating component 800. The various mechanisms work in coordination, and the system can automatically control the equipment's actions according to product requirements. Overall operation: When there is mortar in the mortar spreading cart 100, mold a is transported to the designated position by the conveying component. At the same time, the mortar spreading cart 100 moves to the end of mold a, and the mortar outlet 101 is aligned with the end of mold a. After reaching the appropriate position, the drive motor of the mortar spreading cart 100 drives the pump material transfer unit 400 to rotate. At the same time, the opening drive component 502 of the mortar outlet 101 opens the flexible sealing component 500, and the mortar is squeezed out along the mortar outlet 101. At the same time, the mortar spreading cart 100 starts to move, driving the entire mortar spreading cart 100 to move backward until the tail end of the mold. After reaching the tail end, the mortar outlet 101 closes, the drive motor of the pump material transfer unit 400 stops, the lateral movement stops, and the mortar spreading and pouring is completed. After completion, mold a is transported to the next station, and at the same time, a new mold a arrives at this pouring station, and a new round of mortar spreading begins, and so on in a cycle.
