Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the manufacture of plates by casting on a movable casting hearth, a fluid evolving product, such as a mixture of plaster and water.
  • Called evolutionary product a liquid in which a certain reaction takes place giving rise to a physical or chemical transformation likely in particular to make appear a solid phase or to modify the characteristics of the solid phase initially loading the liquid.
  • plaster which, as soon as it is mixed with water, begins to evolve rapidly until it is completely solidified.
  • the continuous manufacture of plaster construction elements requires controlling the reaction state of the plaster at all times and at each point of the mixture, from the distribution of powdered plaster and water to the end of the chain where finished construction elements are available.
  • the mixture When the mixture has the consistency of a liquid, it can only be used batchwise to manufacture building elements. It is poured into molds and allowed to stay there until the plaster sets. Hitherto a liquid plaster mixture is not used continuously, on the one hand because of the difficulty of retaining the liquid plaster by a valve during its mixing inside a conventional mixer, without deposits and without solidification of deposits at the constriction produced by the valve, on the other hand due to the difficulty of maintaining an evolving product such as plaster in a continuous casting device without any setting in ground inside the device.
  • the Applicant has first developed the adjustment of the flow rate of a fluid mixture of plaster and water at the outlet of a mixer. Knowing how to control the residence time of a liquid mixture of plaster and water by adjusting the flow rate of said mixture at the outlet of a mixer, the Applicant then proposed to use such a liquid mixture continuously to manufacture construction panels, so as to take advantage of the advantages inherent in a liquid, namely level detection accuracy, hence more regular distribution of the mixture, and lighter technology.
  • the tank is filled with product, thus creating a static charge above the casting floor and the product flows over the casting floor through the slot at the base of the tank.
  • a mixture of plaster and water poured into such a device would solidify, first along the walls of the tank then on the lips of the slot and quickly the casting device would be blocked.
  • Such a method using the flow of the product from a loaded reserve relative to the casting hearth, is characterized in that a continuous introduction of the renewal product into the reserve by a plurality of submerged jets in the mass of the product of the reserve. These jets are juxtaposed horizontally and directed approximately horizontally in the opposite direction to the direction of travel of the casting hearth.
  • the jets of renewal product arrive with an energy such that they produce in the mass of the product of the reserve an agitation along closed current lines.
  • the spacing of the jets arriving in the reserve will be such that the closed stirring lines produced by all the jets will be contiguous and will develop in the plane containing the jets over the entire surface of the reserve.
  • one or more reinforcements will be introduced into the product poured from the reserve.
  • the invention also provides a device which makes it possible to implement the method.
  • This device comprising a bottomless trough resting on a movable casting hearth and having an opening limited by said casting hearth and by the lower edge of the plate forming the downstream wall of the trough, is characterized in that said plate downstream is provided with a plurality of product supply tubes, external to the trough, opening inside the trough, through the downstream plate.
  • the invention also proposes means facilitating the introduction of a continuous reinforcement in the manufactured plates.
  • the invention also provides plaster-based products, manufactured using the casting process, and possibly reinforced.

  • This core 7 is centered on the axis of tank 6 and its dimensions are such that there remains an annular space at its periphery, between itself and the bottom wall of tank 6 to allow the flow of the mixture.
  • the lower portion 6A of the tank 6 is conical and the core 7 is a straight cone disposed inside, pointing downwards, its flat base 7A forming the intermediate bottom.
  • the mixture leaving the mixer is collected in an ejection device 8 constituted by a conical casing 9 arranged at the top, with a flat base 10 and by a collection pipe 11 exiting flush with the base 10 tangentially to the conical casing 9 in the direction of rotation of the turbine 5 of the mixer.
  • the output flow of the mixture is regulated by a valve 12 mounted on the collection pipe 11.
  • This valve is constituted by a rigid cylindrical body 13, by an elastic inner sleeve 14 and by a fluid supply pipe 15 between the body rigid 13 and the sleeve 14; this fluid supply pipe 15 is connected to a supply of fluid, generally air; the pressure of said fluid can be adjusted so as to cause compression of the elastic sleeve, thus determining a certain state of closure of the valve 12.
  • a pressure modulation is produced of the fluid controlling the opening of said valve 12.
  • this modulation will be carried out using a pneumatic leakage control system associated with a force balance, the flail 16 of which, on one side carries the mixer M and on the other side ensures the calibration of a leak. of the pneumatic circuit.
  • This pneumatic circuit is supplied with compressed air by the conduit 17, one of its branches is connected to the pipe 15 for supplying control fluid to the valve 12, the other of its branches leads to a nozzle 18 which opens out to the free air and which carries out the leak between itself and the end of the plague 16.

  • the same plate can be manufactured by replacing the mat 100 with cut fibers; the two grids 101 and 102 then enclosing said cut fibers.
  • a thin plaster film, on the order of a millimeter, can be poured to serve as a covering film for ceiling panels.
  • a glass wool ribbon may be placed on the plaster film which has just been cast, just downstream from the casting head, the plaster itself ensuring the connection with the glass wool during its setting. , or else the glass wool itself could serve as a casting sole.
  • Thicker plasterboards on the order of a centimeter, can be used as facing to form isolated lining partitions ( Figure 12). Until now such partitions were made up of a glass wool panel fitted with its paper vapor barrier glued with bitumen and by a reinforced plasterboard covered on the surface with cardboard paper.
  • the partition can only consist of a glass wool panel 103 without vapor barrier and therefore without bitumen and a plasterboard 104 reinforced with fiberglass without paper cardboard on the surface, the junction between glass wool and plaster can be ensured by gluing but preferably being ensured by the plaster itself which has become attached to the fibers during its setting.
  • Such lining walls have improved fire properties compared to the old partitions.
  • the densities of layers 105, 106, 107 can be 1000 kg / m3, 200 kg / m3 and 800 kg / m3.
  • the densities being chosen at will between 150 kg / m3 and 2000 kg / m3 and being obtained by a more or less significant addition of foaming agent, as known per se.
  • the process and the device of the invention make it possible to cast plaster, but also other evolving products, that is to say products whose physical or chemical characteristics change and a fortiori non-evolving or less evolving products, like cement.
