[0004] Insufficient crack resistance: The bonding force between the base layer and the surface layer is weak, and reflective cracks and longitudinal cracks are prone to occur under temperature changes or vehicle loads, resulting in a short service life.

[0005] Poor water stability: Rainwater infiltration easily leads to softening of the base layer and peeling of the surface layer, especially in rainy areas where diseases occur frequently;

[0006] Limited load-bearing capacity: The overall structural strength is insufficient, making it difficult to adapt to the passage of heavy-duty vehicles and prone to rutting and subsidence;

[0007] Limited functionality: Lacking additional functions such as anti-skid and noise reduction, it cannot meet the diverse needs of modern roads.

[0008] Therefore, a crack-resistant cold-recycled pavement structure is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0009] The purpose of this invention is to provide a crack-resistant cold recycled pavement structure that can solve the problems of weak bonding between the base layer and surface layer of existing cold recycled pavement structures, easy occurrence of reflective cracks and longitudinal cracks under temperature changes or vehicle loads, short service life, easy softening of the base layer and peeling of the surface layer after rainwater infiltration, frequent occurrence of defects especially in rainy areas, insufficient overall structural strength, difficulty in adapting to heavy vehicle traffic, easy to cause rutting and subsidence, and lack of additional functions such as anti-skid and noise reduction, which cannot meet the diversified needs of modern roads.

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0031] A crack-resistant cold recycled pavement structure includes a supporting base layer 1, a cold recycled base layer 2 on top of the supporting base layer 1, a crack-resistant transition layer 3 on top of the cold recycled base layer 2, a drainage connection layer 4 on top of the crack-resistant transition layer 3, a functional surface layer 5 on top of the drainage connection layer 4, and honeycomb-shaped drainage channels 6 inside the drainage connection layer 4, which are connected to the drainage holes of the curb stone.

[0032] The supporting base layer 1 includes the original road base layer 11, the top of the original road base layer 11 is provided with a sealing layer 12, the top of the sealing layer 12 is provided with a permeable layer 13, and the bottom of the original road base layer 11 is provided with a subbase layer 14.

[0033] The functional surface layer 5 includes an anti-slip surface layer 51 and a noise reduction bottom layer 52, which are sequentially disposed on top of the drainage connection layer 4.

[0034] In this embodiment: the combined design of crack-resistant transition layer 3 + fiberglass grid 7 + emulsified asphalt bonding layer 8 significantly improves the road surface's crack resistance. The crack-resistant transition layer 3 has good flexibility, which can buffer temperature stress and vehicle load impact. Moreover, the fiberglass grid 7 is embedded in the middle of the crack-resistant transition layer 3, utilizing its high strength characteristics to disperse the stress at the crack tip and prevent base layer cracks from reflecting upwards. Combined with the emulsified asphalt bonding layer 8, it enhances the bonding force between structural layers, preventing interlayer slippage and the generation of new cracks, thus reducing the overall generation of reflective and longitudinal cracks. By setting up a drainage bonding layer 4 and honeycomb drainage channels 6, the road surface's water stability can be improved. The drainage bonding layer 4 can quickly absorb surface infiltrated water, while the honeycomb drainage channels... Road 6 directs moisture to the drainage holes of the curbstone to prevent water accumulation in the base layer, which can lead to softening and surface peeling. It is especially suitable for rainy areas. By setting up a functional surface layer 5, it achieves the dual functions of anti-skid and noise reduction. The anti-skid surface layer 51 uses special aggregates to increase the road surface friction coefficient and ensure driving safety. The porous structure of the noise reduction base layer 52 can absorb traffic noise, improve the surrounding environment of the road, and meet the diversified needs of modern roads. By setting up a supporting base layer 1, which consists of a subbase layer 14 and the original road base layer 11, it provides a solid foundation for the road structure. The cold recycled base layer 2 uses milled old asphalt pavement material to form a high-strength load-bearing layer, which can distribute the load and make the road surface adaptable to heavy vehicle traffic, reducing rutting and subsidence.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the subbase 14 is composed of 18cm thick low-dose cement-stabilized crushed stone, and the original road base 11 is composed of 36cm thick cement-stabilized crushed stone.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the sealing layer 12 is composed of SBS modified emulsified asphalt, and the prime coat 13 is composed of liquid petroleum asphalt.

[0037] In this embodiment: the subbase 14 is 18cm thick low-dosage cement-stabilized crushed stone, and the original road base 11 is 36cm thick cement-stabilized crushed stone. The two are compacted to form a high-strength support structure, which evenly transfers vehicle loads to the foundation. The seal coat 12 is made of SBS modified emulsified asphalt and sprayed on the top of the original road base 11 to seal the base pores. The tack coat 13 is made of liquid petroleum asphalt and penetrates between the seal coat 12 and the cold recycled base 2 to enhance the interlayer bond. The seal coat 12 prevents moisture from penetrating into the base, and the tack coat 13 enhances the interlayer bonding force, prevents the cold recycled base 2 from separating from the support base 1, and improves the overall integrity of the road structure.

[0038] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the crack-resistant transition layer 3 is embedded with a glass fiber grid 7, and an emulsified asphalt bonding layer 8 is provided between the crack-resistant transition layer 3, the cold recycled base layer 2, and the drainage bonding layer 4.

[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the emulsified asphalt bonding layer 8 is modified emulsified asphalt, covering the contact surfaces of each structural layer.

[0040] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the glass fiber grid 7 is a bidirectional grid and is fixed to the middle of the crack-resistant transition layer 3 by emulsified asphalt bonding.

[0041] In this embodiment: a glass fiber grid 7 is embedded inside the crack-resistant transition layer 3, and the emulsified asphalt bonding layer 8 between the glass fiber grid 7 and the cold recycled base layer 2 and the drainage bonding layer 4 makes each layer tightly bonded. When a load is applied, the glass fiber grid 7 disperses stress and prevents crack propagation, while the bonding layer increases the interlayer bonding strength, prevents relative sliding between layers under vehicle load, and reduces cracks caused by interlayer separation.

[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the crack-resistant transition layer 3 is composed of modified emulsified asphalt stabilized crushed stone and has a thickness of 5-8cm. The cold recycled base course 2 is composed of old asphalt pavement milling material, cement, and emulsified asphalt.

[0043] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the drainage bonding layer 4 is composed of open-graded asphalt mixture, and the honeycomb drainage channels 6 are connected to the drainage holes of the curb stone one by one.

[0044] In this embodiment: the crack-resistant transition layer 3 uses modified emulsified asphalt stabilized crushed stone (5-8cm thick), which has good flexibility and strength and can buffer the impact of loads; the cold recycled base course 2 is a compound of old asphalt pavement milled material, cement and emulsified asphalt, realizing the reuse of old materials and forming a high-strength load-bearing layer; the drainage bonding layer 4 is an open-graded asphalt mixture, which can quickly absorb surface water. The water flows through the honeycomb drainage channel 6 to the curb stone drainage hole to avoid water accumulation, improve water stability, and reduce diseases such as base course softening and surface peeling caused by water soaking.

[0045] Working Principle: When used in road structures, the combined design of crack-resistant transition layer 3 + fiberglass grid 7 + emulsified asphalt binder layer 8 significantly improves the road surface's crack resistance. Crack-resistant transition layer 3 has good flexibility, buffering temperature stress and vehicle load impacts. Furthermore, the fiberglass grid 7, embedded in the center of crack-resistant transition layer 3, utilizes its high strength to disperse stress at the crack tip, preventing base layer cracks from reflecting upwards. Combined with the emulsified asphalt binder layer 8, it enhances the bonding force between structural layers, preventing interlayer slippage and the generation of new cracks, thus reducing the overall occurrence of reflective and longitudinal cracks. By setting up a drainage bonding layer 4 and honeycomb drainage channels 6, the road surface's water stability is improved. The drainage bonding layer 4 can quickly absorb surface infiltrated water, while the honeycomb... Drainage channel 6 directs moisture to the curb drainage holes, preventing water accumulation in the base layer that could lead to softening and surface peeling, making it particularly suitable for rainy areas. Functional surface layer 5 provides both anti-skid and noise reduction. The anti-skid surface layer 51 uses special aggregates to increase the road surface friction coefficient, ensuring driving safety. The porous structure of the noise-reducing base layer 52 absorbs traffic noise, improving the surrounding environment and meeting the diverse needs of modern roads. Support base layer 1, composed of subbase layer 14 and original road base layer 11, provides a solid foundation for the road structure. Cold recycled base layer 2, using milled old asphalt pavement material, forms a high-strength load-bearing layer, distributing loads and allowing the road surface to accommodate heavy vehicles, reducing rutting and subsidence.

[0046] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
