Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building construction equipment, specifically to a semi-automatic masonry device. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the construction industry, masonry work, as a crucial part of construction, directly impacts the overall project progress and cost in terms of efficiency and quality. Traditional masonry work relies mainly on manual labor, which is not only labor-intensive but also inefficient, failing to meet the high-efficiency and high-quality requirements of modern construction.

[0003] Existing technologies still have significant shortcomings in masonry operations. First, traditional masonry work mainly relies on manual labor with a low level of mechanization, resulting in low construction efficiency. Second, manual masonry requires a large number of skilled workers, leading to labor shortages and high costs. Third, the preparation and use of cement mortar in traditional masonry processes often depend on manual experience, making it difficult to guarantee uniformity and quality stability. Finally, most existing masonry equipment is bulky and complex to operate, making it unsuitable for small projects or construction environments with limited space.

[0004] Especially in cement conveying and uniform laying, existing technologies lack a simple, easy-to-operate semi-automated solution, failing to effectively address the issues of uniform cement laying and precise brick positioning during masonry. Furthermore, existing equipment generally lacks an effective mechanism for recycling leftover materials, resulting in material waste. In addition, existing masonry equipment lacks adaptability, making it difficult to flexibly adjust to different brick sizes, thus limiting its application range.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a semi-automatic masonry device that is simple in structure, easy to operate, and can improve masonry efficiency and quality, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems in traditional masonry operations. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the problems of traditional bricklaying operations, which rely heavily on manual labor and suffer from low efficiency, poor mechanization, high costs, high labor intensity, labor shortages, and dependence on vertical and horizontal lines, this utility model provides a semi-automatic bricklaying device to improve bricklaying efficiency and quality, reduce material waste, lower manpower consumption, and increase labor efficiency.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0008] A semi-automatic bricklaying device, comprising:

[0009] The frame has a positioning groove with an inverted U-shaped cross-section at the bottom. The positioning groove runs through the front and back and its width is adapted to the width of the brick.

[0010] The cement storage silo, located on the upper part of the frame, adopts a conical three-dimensional silo structure and is used to store cement raw materials;

[0011] The conveying mechanism includes a conveying pipe, a conveying component, and a conveying drive component. The conveying pipe is connected to a cement storage silo and has an output port located at the rear of a positioning groove. The conveying drive component drives the conveying component to output cement from the cement storage silo through the output port.

[0012] The power unit, located at the front of the frame, is used to drive the frame movement;

[0013] The toothed laying plate, located behind the outlet, is used to evenly spread cement.

[0014] In the aforementioned semi-automatic masonry device, the conveying component is a spiral roller, and the conveying drive component is a drive motor. The spiral roller is rotatably disposed within the conveying pipeline, and the conveying pipeline containing the spiral roller has an inlet communicating with a cement storage silo. Through the combination of the spiral roller and the drive motor, continuous and controllable cement conveying is achieved. When the spiral roller rotates within the conveying pipeline, it can evenly push the cement to the outlet, avoiding blockages or material interruptions caused by uneven pressure during conveying, significantly improving conveying efficiency and reliability.

[0015] In the aforementioned semi-automatic masonry device, the power unit includes a ratchet handle and a drive wheel driven by the ratchet handle, the drive wheel being at least partially located within a positioning groove. Through the combination of the ratchet handle and the drive wheel, the operator can manually control the forward stride and speed of the frame, making it particularly suitable for narrow or complex construction environments. The ratchet mechanism allows for intermittent advancement, ensuring the frame moves step-by-step, avoiding displacement errors due to inertia, and improving the accuracy of the masonry position.

[0016] In the aforementioned semi-automatic bricklaying device, the drive wheel is located at the front of the frame, and at least partially extends into the positioning groove from the top. The drive wheel's location at the front of the frame and its partial extension into the top of the positioning groove create a physical constraint with the inverted U-shaped positioning groove. This design provides a dual limiting effect during frame movement, preventing lateral deviation of the drive wheel and guiding the frame forward in a straight line via the positioning groove, significantly improving the straightness of the bricklaying path and the alignment accuracy of the bricks.

[0017] In the aforementioned semi-automatic bricklaying device, a gear transmission assembly is also provided between the ratchet handle and the drive wheel. This gear transmission assembly amplifies the rotational force of the ratchet handle and transmits it to the drive wheel. The optimized transmission ratio significantly reduces the force required by the operator to push the frame, making it particularly suitable for long-distance or high-resistance working conditions and reducing labor intensity.

[0018] In the aforementioned semi-automatic masonry device, the cement storage silo is an inverted conical three-dimensional silo structure with its bottom connected to the conveying pipeline. The inverted conical three-dimensional silo structure utilizes gravity to naturally guide cement to the bottom, reducing residue within the silo. The direct connection between the bottom and the conveying pipeline ensures that cement enters the conveying mechanism quickly and continuously, avoiding conveying interruptions due to accumulation or stagnation, and significantly improving cement conveying efficiency.

[0019] In the aforementioned semi-automatic masonry device, both the left and right side walls of the positioning groove are equipped with recovery scrapers, and the exterior of the frame on both sides of the positioning groove is respectively equipped with a residual material recovery bin. A recovery channel is provided between the recovery scrapers and the residual material recovery bins. The recovery scrapers on both sides of the positioning groove can promptly scrape off the cement overflowing during the masonry process and guide it into the residual material recovery bin through the recovery channel, avoiding cement spillage and waste. The recovery bins centrally collect residual materials, facilitating subsequent reuse and significantly reducing material loss and construction costs.

[0020] In the aforementioned semi-automatic bricklaying device, the frame includes a frame body, a left baffle, and a right baffle. The left baffle is adjustablely positioned on the left side of the bottom of the frame body, perpendicular to the forward direction of the frame. The right baffle is also adjustablely positioned on the right side of the bottom of the frame body, perpendicular to the forward direction of the frame. The left and right baffles, together with the bottom of the frame body, form a positioning groove. Through the adjustable design of the left and right baffles perpendicular to the forward direction of the frame, the user can flexibly adjust the size of the positioning groove according to the actual width of the brick, adapting to bricks of different specifications without replacing equipment or using additional accessories, significantly improving the device's applicability.

[0021] In the aforementioned semi-automatic bricklaying device, auxiliary ball wheels are provided on the left and right side walls of the positioning groove. These auxiliary ball wheels on the left and right side walls of the positioning groove replace traditional sliding friction with rolling friction, significantly reducing the resistance of the bricks as they move within the positioning groove, making it easier for the bricks to slide into place, and improving bricklaying efficiency. This is especially suitable for long-distance or continuous bricklaying operations.

[0022] In the aforementioned semi-automatic masonry device, a vibration motor is connected to the toothed laying plate to drive the toothed laying plate to vibrate and remove air from the cement. By vibrating the toothed laying plate driven by the vibration motor, residual air bubbles in the cement are effectively removed, eliminating strength defects caused by air pores, resulting in a higher density cement layer, a more stable structure after hardening, and significantly improved masonry quality.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0024] Improve masonry efficiency and automation: The machine frame is automatically moved by a power unit, and the cement is stably transported from the storage bin to the output port by the conveying mechanism. The cement is then spread out in time by the toothed laying plate, realizing continuous operation of the masonry process, significantly reducing manual intervention and improving construction efficiency.

[0025] To ensure precise brick positioning and uniform cement laying: The inverted U-shaped positioning groove at the bottom of the frame is adapted to the width of the brick, which can constrain the position of the brick and ensure the accuracy of the masonry alignment; the toothed laying plate is located behind the output port, which directly spreads and levels the cement, eliminates human operation errors, improves the uniformity of the cement layer, and enhances the quality of masonry.

[0026] The structure is compact and highly adaptable: the conical cement storage silo design facilitates cement flow and avoids blockages; the through-type positioning slot structure and the overall layout of the frame are reasonable, which can adapt to different brick sizes (by adjusting the width of the positioning slot) and is also suitable for narrow construction environments, thus improving the versatility of the device.

[0027] Reduce material waste: The restraining effect of the positioning groove and the instant leveling function of the toothed paving plate can accurately control the amount of cement used, avoiding excessive overflow or uneven distribution, thereby reducing material loss.

Detailed Implementation

[0034] A semi-automatic bricklaying device, comprising:

[0035] The frame 10 has a positioning groove 11 with an inverted U-shaped cross-section at the bottom. The positioning groove 11 is continuous from front to back, and the width of the positioning groove 11 is adapted to the width of the brick 100.

[0036] The cement storage silo 20 is located on the upper part of the frame 10 and adopts a conical three-dimensional silo structure for storing cement raw materials;

[0037] The conveying mechanism 30 includes a conveying pipe 31, a conveying component 32, and a conveying drive component 33. The conveying pipe 31 is connected to the cement storage silo 20 and has an output port 34 located at the rear of the positioning groove 11. The conveying drive component 33 drives the conveying component 32 to output the cement from the cement storage silo through the output port 34.

[0038] The power unit 40 is located at the front of the frame 10 and is used to drive the frame 10 to move.

[0039] The toothed laying plate 50 is located behind the output port 34 and is used to evenly spread cement.

[0040] Improve masonry efficiency and automation: The power unit 40 drives the frame 10 to move automatically, and the conveying mechanism 30 stably transports cement from the storage bin to the output port 34. The toothed paving plate 50 is used to spread the cement in time, realizing continuous operation of the masonry process, significantly reducing manual intervention and improving construction efficiency.

[0041] To ensure precise brick positioning and uniform cement laying: The inverted U-shaped positioning groove 11 at the bottom of the frame 10 is adapted to the width of the brick 100, which can constrain the position of the brick and ensure the alignment accuracy of the masonry; the toothed laying plate 50 is located behind the output port 34, which directly spreads and levels the cement, eliminates manual operation errors, improves the uniformity of the cement layer, and enhances the masonry quality.

[0042] The structure is compact and highly adaptable: the conical cement storage silo 20 is designed to facilitate cement flow and avoid blockage; the through-type structure of the positioning groove 11 and the overall layout of the frame 10 are reasonable, which can adapt to different brick sizes (by adjusting the width of the positioning groove 11) and is also suitable for narrow construction environments, thus improving the versatility of the device.

[0043] Reduce material waste: The restraining effect of the positioning groove 11 and the instant leveling function of the toothed laying plate 50 can accurately control the amount of cement used, avoid excessive overflow or uneven distribution, thereby reducing material loss.

[0044] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0045] See Figures 1 to 4This is an embodiment of a semi-automatic masonry device according to the present invention. The semi-automatic masonry device includes: a frame 10, a cement storage bin 20, a conveying mechanism 30, a power unit 40, and a toothed laying plate 50.

[0046] The lower part of the frame 10 has a positioning groove 11 with an inverted U-shaped cross-section. The positioning groove 11 runs through the front and back, and its width is adapted to the width of the brick 100. In practical applications, the width of the positioning groove 11 can be designed according to different specifications of bricks 100. For example, for a standard brick 100 with a width of 240mm, the width of the positioning groove 11 can be designed to be 242mm, leaving a 2mm gap to allow the brick 100 to pass through smoothly. The height of the positioning groove 11 is designed to be 1.2 times the height of the brick 100 to ensure that the brick 100 can be completely placed in the positioning groove 11 and there is enough space for cement laying.

[0047] The cement storage silo 20 is located on top of the frame 10 and adopts a conical three-dimensional silo structure for storing cement raw materials. The cement storage silo 20 is an inverted conical three-dimensional silo structure with its bottom connected to the conveying pipe 31. The conical structure design allows cement to flow naturally to the bottom under gravity, preventing cement from accumulating or clumping inside the silo. The top of the storage silo has an openable and closable feeding port for easy addition of cement raw materials. The inner wall of the storage silo is smoothed to reduce cement adhesion to the inner wall.

[0048] The conveying mechanism 30 includes a conveying pipe 31, a conveying component 32, and a conveying drive component 33. The conveying pipe 31 is connected to the cement storage silo 20 and has an output port 34 located at the rear of the positioning groove 11. The conveying drive component 33 drives the conveying component 32 to output cement from the cement storage silo through the output port 34. The conveying component 32 is a spiral roller, and the conveying drive component 33 is a drive motor. The spiral roller is rotatably disposed within the conveying pipe 31, and the conveying pipe 31 containing the spiral roller has an input port connected to the cement storage silo 20. The spiral roller has a diameter of 40mm, a pitch of 30mm, and is made of wear-resistant alloy steel with a hardened surface to enhance wear resistance. The drive motor is a DC motor with a power of 120W, and its speed can be adjusted within the range of 50-200rpm to adapt to different cement flow requirements. The inner diameter of the conveying pipe 31 is 45mm, and a 2.5mm gap is maintained between it and the spiral roller to ensure smooth cement conveying without blockage. The conveying pipe 31 can be at a certain height from the brick 100, for example, 15mm, to ensure that the cement can be evenly laid on the brick 100.

[0049] A power unit 40 is located at the front of the frame 10 and is used to drive the frame 10 to move. The power unit 40 includes a ratchet handle 41 and a drive wheel 42 driven by the ratchet handle 41. The drive wheel 42 is at least partially located within a positioning groove 11. The drive wheel 42 is located at the front of the frame 10, extending at least partially into the positioning groove 11 from the top, thus preventing it from interfering with subsequent cement laying. A gear transmission assembly 43 is also provided between the ratchet handle 41 and the drive wheel 42. The ratchet handle 41 is ergonomically designed, 300mm in length, and the grip is made of non-slip rubber for a comfortable hold. The ratchet mechanism uses a 36-tooth design, generating one drive cycle for every 10 degrees of rotation, making operation more precise. The gear transmission assembly 43 includes a driving gear and a driven gear with a transmission ratio of 1:3, meaning that for every one rotation of the ratchet handle 41, the drive wheel 42 rotates three times, improving work efficiency. The drive wheel 42 has a diameter of 100mm and a width of 30mm. The wheel surface is made of rubber to increase friction with the brick surface and prevent slippage. The drive wheel 42 extends 15mm into the positioning groove 11 to ensure sufficient contact area with the brick 100.

[0050] The toothed laying plate 50 is located behind the output port 34 and is used to evenly spread cement. A vibration motor is connected to the toothed laying plate 50 to vibrate and remove air from the cement. The toothed laying plate 50 is made of stainless steel, with the same width as the positioning groove 11 and a thickness of 2mm. The toothed part is designed in a comb-like shape, with a tooth height of 5mm and a tooth spacing of 3mm, totaling 80 teeth. This effectively spreads the cement evenly and forms a texture, enhancing the adhesion between the brick and the cement. The vibration motor is a miniature vibration motor with a power of 15W. The vibration frequency can be adjusted within the range of 60-120Hz, and the amplitude is 0.5-2mm, effectively removing air bubbles from the cement and improving the quality of masonry.

[0051] The positioning groove 11 has recycling scrapers 12 on both its left and right side walls. The frame 10 on both sides of the positioning groove 11 has a residual material recycling bin 13 on its exterior. A recycling channel 14 is provided between the recycling scrapers 12 and the residual material recycling bins 13. The recycling scrapers 12 are made of elastic rubber with a thickness of 3mm, maintaining slight contact with the brick surface to effectively scrape off excess cement. The residual material recycling bins 13 have a volume of 2 liters, sufficient to collect excess cement generated during the masonry process. The recycling channel 14 is sloped at a 45-degree angle to ensure that excess cement flows smoothly into the recycling bins.

[0052] The frame 10 includes a frame body 15, a left baffle 16, and a right baffle 17. The left baffle 16 is adjustablely positioned on the left side of the bottom of the frame body along the direction perpendicular to the forward movement of the frame 10. The right baffle 17 is adjustablely positioned on the right side of the bottom of the frame body along the same direction perpendicular to the forward movement of the frame 10. The left baffle 16, right baffle 17, and the bottom of the frame body 15 combine to form a positioning groove 11. Both the left baffle 16 and right baffle 17 are made of high-strength aluminum alloy, with a thickness of 5mm and a height of 100mm. The adjustment range of the baffles is 180-300mm. Adjustment grooves are provided on the baffles or on the bottom of the frame body 15. The baffles are fixed to the frame body 15 by bolts that engage with the adjustment grooves at different positions, allowing adjustment according to bricks 100 of different widths. The frame body 15 adopts a welded steel pipe structure, with an overall weight of 15kg, providing sufficient strength and stability.

[0053] Auxiliary ball wheels 18 are provided on the left and right side walls of the positioning groove 11. The auxiliary ball wheels 18 are made of nylon, with a diameter of 15mm, and two are provided on each side, evenly distributed on the side walls. The ball wheels are supported by springs, which can adapt to slight changes in the width of the brick 100, reduce friction, and make the brick 100 move more smoothly in the positioning groove 11.

[0054] In actual use, the operator first adds cement raw materials to the cement storage bin 20, then places the device on the already laid bricks 100, aligning the positioning groove 11 with the position to be laid in the next row. The conveying drive 33 is activated, and cement is output from the output port 34 through the conveying mechanism 30 and laid on the bricks 100. The operator drives the device forward using the ratchet handle 41, while the toothed laying plate 50 evenly spreads the cement, and the vibrating motor removes air from the cement. Excess cement is scraped off by the recovery scraper 12 on the side wall and flows into the residual material recovery bin 13 through the recovery channel 14. In this way, the device can semi-automatically complete the masonry work, greatly improving work efficiency and masonry quality.

[0055] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the conveying component 32 is a spiral roller with spiral grooves along its axial direction, and the conveying drive component 33 is a hydraulic motor. The spiral roller has a diameter of 38mm, a pitch of 25mm, and is made of stainless steel with a polished surface to reduce cement adhesion. The hydraulic motor has a working pressure of 5MPa, a flow rate of 10L / min, an output torque of 15N·m, and a speed range of 30-150rpm. The hydraulic system also includes a hydraulic pump, an oil tank, a pressure regulating valve, and a control valve assembly, which can precisely control the speed of the spiral roller, thereby regulating the cement output.

[0056] In addition to using a ratchet handle 41 to drive the drive wheel 42 to move the entire device on the bricks 100, the power unit 40 can also employ the following scheme: an electric motor and a tracked walking mechanism driven by the electric motor. The electric motor is a DC brushless motor with a power of 200W and a speed of 1500rpm, and the speed is reduced to a suitable range for tracked movement by a reducer. The tracked walking mechanism includes two parallel rubber tracks, 50mm wide and 400mm long, with differential steering for directional control. The control system includes a speed controller and a direction controller, allowing the operator to precisely control the device's speed and direction via a handheld controller. The tracked walking mechanism can adapt to different ground conditions, improving the stability and mobility of the device.

[0057] Furthermore, the design of the recycling scraper 12 can also adopt the following scheme: Adjustable-height recycling scrapers 12 are provided on both the left and right side walls of the positioning groove 11. Residual material recycling bins 13 with filtering devices are respectively provided on the exterior of the frame 10 on both sides of the positioning groove 11. A heated recycling channel 14 is provided between the recycling scraper 12 and the residual material recycling bins 13. The height of the recycling scraper 12 can be adjusted within the range of 0-20mm to adapt to cement layers of different thicknesses. The filtering device includes a metal screen and a vibrator, which can separate impurities from the recycled cement. The heated recycling channel 14 has a built-in heating wire with a power of 30W, and the temperature can be controlled within the range of 20-40℃ to prevent cement from solidifying in the channel. A discharge valve is provided at the bottom of the residual material recycling bin 13 for easy cleaning of the recycled cement.

[0058] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present utility model, but the technical features of the present utility model are not limited thereto. Any changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model are covered by the patent scope of the present utility model.
