Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of mortar testing instruments, and more specifically, to a mortar consistency meter with a self-cleaning function. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of construction engineering, mortar is an important building material, and its performance directly affects the quality and safety of the project. Among these properties, the fluidity (often referred to as consistency) of mortar is one of the key indicators for measuring its workability. To ensure the rationality of the mortar mix ratio and the ease of construction, its consistency must be accurately tested before application. Currently, the widely used testing equipment is the mortar consistency meter.

[0003] In the prior art, such as the mortar consistency tester disclosed in Chinese utility model patent CN207036610U, which is easy to clean, an installation cylinder and a support are set on the base. A sliding column is slidably connected to the support, and a cone is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the sliding column. The installation cylinder has a detachable receiving cylinder for holding the mortar to be tested, and the conical surface of the cone is covered with a detachable cone sleeve. This design aims to solve the problem of inconvenient instrument cleaning through the detachable connection between the receiving cylinder and the installation cylinder, and the detachable connection between the cone sleeve and the cone.

[0004] However, while the aforementioned technical solutions improve the ease of cleaning to some extent, significant shortcomings remain. Specifically, the cleaning process still relies on manual operation, requiring operators to manually disassemble the receiving cylinder and cone sleeve and clean them one by one. This method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, increasing the operator's workload, but also prone to component wear or loosening of connections during frequent disassembly and assembly, thereby affecting the instrument's measurement accuracy and lifespan.

[0023] Example 1 Reference Figures 1-4 This embodiment provides a mortar consistency meter with self-cleaning function, including a base 1, a column 2 fixed to the base 1, and a flushing mechanism movably installed on the base 1. The top of the column 2 is provided with a mounting seat 3, the mounting seat 3 is provided with a sleeve rod 4, the bottom of the sleeve rod 4 is provided with a cone 5, the top of the base 1 is provided with a material container 6 corresponding to the cone 5, and the flushing mechanism moves in a circular motion along the outer circumference of the material container 6.

[0024] After the test, when cleaning the cone and the container is required, the rinsing mechanism moves circumferentially along the outer circumference of the container to rinse the container and the cone. This eliminates the need for disassembly, simplifying the cleaning process, achieving autonomous cleaning, and saving time and effort. The sleeve 4 is fixed to the mounting base 3 with bolts.

[0025] In this embodiment, the rinsing mechanism includes an annular track 7 formed on the base 1, an external gear ring 21 installed within the annular track 7, a gear 22 meshing with the external gear ring 21, a motor 19 connected to the gear 22, and a fixing rod 8 installed on the top of the external gear ring 21. The fixing rod 8 is movable along the annular track 7. A sleeve 9 is provided at the top of the fixing rod 7, and a first cylinder 17 is installed inside the sleeve 9. The output end of the first cylinder 17 is connected to a support rod 10. A crossbar 11 is provided at the top of the support rod 10, and a rinsing assembly is connected to the end of the crossbar 11 away from the support rod 10. The motor 19 drives the gear 22 to rotate, synchronously driving the external gear ring 21 to rotate, causing the fixing rod 8 on the external gear ring 21 to move along the annular track 7, allowing the rinsing assembly to perform circumferential motion around the material container 6, rinsing the material container 6 and the cone 5. In addition, by driving the support rod 10 to rise and fall by the first cylinder 17, the height of the flushing component on the crossbar 22 can be adjusted, which facilitates the flushing of the material container 6 and the cone 5 as a whole and improves the cleaning effect.

[0026] In this embodiment, the crossbar 11 includes a main rod 111, a first support rod 112 sleeved with the main rod 111, and a second support rod 113 sleeved with the first support rod 112. The second support rod 113 is L-shaped. A second cylinder 18 is provided at the bottom of the main rod 111, and the driving end of the second cylinder 18 is connected to the vertical section of the second support rod 113. Through the sleeved design of the main rod 111, the first support rod 112, and the second support rod 113, the crossbar 11 has a telescopic structure. The telescopic extension and retraction of the crossbar 11 is achieved by the second cylinder 18, thereby adjusting the distance between the rinsing assembly and the material container 6. This allows the rinsing assembly to rinse the inner wall of the material container 6 from inside or outside the material container 6.

[0027] In this embodiment, the rinsing assembly includes a water pipe passing through the main rod 111, the first support rod 112, and the second support rod 113. The water pipe is connected to an external water source via a flexible hose 12, and several nozzles 15 are provided on the vertical section of the water pipe located on the second support rod 113. During cleaning, an external water source is pumped to the flexible hose 12, which then delivers water to the water pipe, from which it is sprayed from the nozzles 15 to rinse the material container 6 and the cone 5. It should be noted that during the cleaning process, to prevent the flexible hose 12 from tangling, the rinsing mechanism can alternately rotate forward and reverse.

[0028] In this embodiment, cleaning brushes 16 are provided on both sides of the vertical section of the second support rod 113, and each cleaning brush 16 is provided with a nozzle 15 on both sides. The cleaning brushes 16 on both sides can respectively brush the material container 6 and the cone 5 to facilitate the removal of adhering mortar. The cleaning brush near the cone 5 is inclined and adapted to the outer circumference of the cone 5 to facilitate brushing the outer circumference of the cone 5. The nozzles 15 on both sides of the vertical section of the second support rod 113 can work simultaneously or independently, depending on the specific usage. The cleaning brush 16 near the cone 5 may also have a brushing part adapted to the end face of the cone 5 to achieve simultaneous cleaning of the end face and the outer circumference of the cone 5.

[0029] In this embodiment, the cleaning brush 16 is detachably connected to the second support rod 113. The cleaning brush 16 is connected to the second support rod 113 by bolts for easy replacement.

[0030] In this embodiment, the base 1 has a circular water collection trough 13 at its top, and the material container 6 is located inside the water collection trough 13. The height of the water collection trough 13 gradually decreases from the outside to the inside, and a drain pipe 14 extending to the outside of the base 1 is connected to the bottom of the water collection trough 13. During cleaning, water may splash out when rinsing the material container 6. The water collection trough 13 has a slope that can collect the splashed water, which is then discharged through the drain pipe 14. In addition, the outside of the material container 6 can also be rinsed using a spray nozzle 15, and the rinsed water is discharged from the drain pipe 14 at the bottom of the water collection trough 13.

[0031] In this embodiment, the bottom of the base 1 is provided with a discharge pipe 20 that communicates with the material container 6. The discharge pipe 20 is equipped with a valve. After the test is completed, the valve is opened to discharge the mortar. At the same time, during the cleaning process, the cleaning waste liquid can also be discharged from the discharge pipe 20 for convenient centralized treatment of the cleaning waste liquid.

[0032] Working principle: After the test is completed, the mortar is discharged through the discharge pipe 20. The support rod 10 is raised and lowered by the first cylinder 17, which simultaneously raises and lowers the crossbar 11 to adjust the height of the flushing component on the crossbar 11. The second support rod 113 is moved by the second cylinder 18 to realize the extension and retraction of the crossbar 11 and adjust the distance between the flushing component and the material container 6. Through the above adjustment, the flushing component is positioned inside the material container 6, and the cleaning brush 16 on the vertical section of the second support rod 113 contacts the inner wall of the material container 6. The hose 12 delivers water through the water pump and sprays it out through the nozzle 15 on the water pipe. While the nozzle 15 sprays water toward the inner wall of the material container 6, the cleaning brush 16 scrubs the inner wall of the material container 6. At the same time, the motor 19 drives the gear 22 to rotate, which in turn drives the outer gear ring 21 to rotate, causing the fixed rod 8 on the outer gear ring 21 to move along the circular track 7, so that the rinsing component can make a circular motion around the material container 6, so that the nozzle 15 and the cleaning brush 16 can clean the material container 6 while moving around it, and the cleaned water is discharged from the discharge pipe 20.

[0033] The adjustment method is the same as above. By adjusting, the rinsing component is positioned outside the material container 6, and the cleaning brush 16 on one side of the vertical section of the second support rod 113 contacts the outer wall of the material container 6, so that the cleaning brush 16 and the nozzle 15 work together to clean the outer wall of the material container 6. The cleaned water is collected in the water collection tank 13 and discharged from the drain pipe 14.

[0034] When it is necessary to clean the cone 5, the cleaning brush 16 on the other side of the vertical section of the second support rod 113 is brought into contact with the outer circumferential surface of the cone 5. The nozzle 15 and the cleaning brush 16 on that side move around the cone 5 while cleaning the cone 5. The water after cleaning is discharged from the discharge pipe 20.

[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
