Description

L'invention est relative à une méthode, a des écrans autoportants et à des installations permettant d'améliorer l'efficacité des Arocédés pour la fabrication des produits en béton précontraint par armatures adhérentes.The invention relates to a method, to self-supporting screens and to installations making it possible to improve the efficiency of Arocédés for the manufacture of prestressed concrete products by adherent reinforcement.

On sait que la fabrication des produits en béton précontraint impose souvent le coulage et le durcissement du beton dans les moules et une exigence particulière pour les opérations de mise en place mise en tension et en détension des armatures (fils ou torons).We know that the production of prestressed concrete products often imposes the pouring and hardening of concrete in the molds and a particular requirement for the setting up operations in tension and in tensioning of the reinforcements (wires or strands).

De ce fait, l'efficacité de n'importe quel procédé pour la fabrication des éléments en beton précontraint est déterminée principalement par le cycle d'utilisation des moules et par des moyens utilisés pour la mise en place, la mise en tension et la detension des armatures.Therefore, the efficiency of any process for the manufacture of prestressed concrete elements is mainly determined by the cycle of use of the molds and by means used for the establishment, the tensioning and the tensioning reinforcements.

Dans les procedés dits "bancs au sol", les moules sont utilisés une seule fois par jour, ce qui rend inefficace l'exploitation industrielle de ces procédés.In the so-called "ground benches" processes, the molds are used only once a day, which makes industrial exploitation of these processes ineffective.

Les procédés "en chaîne" arrivent à utiliser les moules jusqu'à deux fois par jour, mais du fait que lesdits moules ont la largeur du produit à fabriquer, les opérations de mise en place, mise en tension et détension des armatures sont laborieuses, surtout pour des produits courts.The "chain" processes manage to use the molds up to twice a day, but the fact that said molds have the width of the product to be produced, the operations of placing, tensioning and relaxing the reinforcements are laborious, especially for short products.

Le procédé "chaîne à flotteurs" (voir la demande de brevet EP-A-0007852) qui dispose de certaines facilités pour le durcissement du béton, n'a été pas doté à ce jour de moyens pour la fabrication d'eléments en béton précontraint.The "float chain" process (see patent application EP-A-0007852) which has certain facilities for hardening concrete, has not been provided to date with means for the production of prestressed concrete elements .

Les procédés "hall rotatif" et "tambour rotatif" (Voir les demandes des brevet FR-A 2 305 284 et EP-A-0012 069, respectivement) ont des réserves encore non exploitées tant pour la rotation rapide des moules que pour les divers processus technologiques.The "rotary hall" and "rotary drum" processes (See patent applications FR-A 2 305 284 and EP-A-0012 069, respectively) have reserves that are not yet exploited both for the rapid rotation of the molds and for the various technological processes.

Par ailleurs, on connaît des moyens pour la mise en tension en groupe des armatures dans la fabrication de produits précontraints en beton (voir la demande de brevet FR-A-2 166 656).Furthermore, means are known for group tensioning of reinforcements in the manufacture of prestressed concrete products (see patent application FR-A-2 166 656).

L'invention a pour but de mettre à la disposition de ces procédés une méthode, des écrans autoportants et des installations permettant d'améliorer leur efficacité.The object of the invention is to provide these methods with a method, self-supporting screens and installations making it possible to improve their efficiency.

La méthode conforme à l'invention, pour l'amélioration de l'efficacité des procédés de fabrication ci-avant cités, est mentionnée, de façon essentielle, dans la partie caractéristique de la revendication 1. Des étapes auxiliaires sont mentionnées dans les revendications 2 et 3. Ainsi, selon l'invention, on utilise des écrans mobiles et autoportants, des dispositifs de mise en place et de mise en tension en groupe, de nouvelles structures porteuses des moules et des installations de durcissement du béton et de démoulage qui, d'une part, simplifient les processus technologiques respectifs et assurent une diminution non-négligeable des pertes d'armature (fils ou torons) et qui, d'autre part, permettent de devancer, dans certains cas, le démoulage en transférant par l'intermédiaire desdits écrans la force de précontrainte au bout des éléments et de continuer le durcissement des éléments démoulés sur encore une période après laquelle, le béton ayant une résistance accrue, le transfert de la précontrainte par adhérence entre armatures et béton devient plus efficace.The method according to the invention, for improving the efficiency of the abovementioned manufacturing processes, is mentioned, essentially, in the characteristic part of claim 1. Auxiliary steps are mentioned in claims 2 and 3. Thus, according to the invention, mobile and self-supporting screens are used, group positioning and tensioning devices, new mold-carrying structures and concrete hardening and demoulding installations which, on the one hand, simplify the respective technological processes and ensure a non-negligible reduction in losses of reinforcement (wires or strands) and which, on the other hand, allow to advance, in certain cases, the demolding by transferring by the intermediate of said screens the prestressing force at the end of the elements and to continue the hardening of the demolded elements over another period after which, the concrete having an increased resistance, the transfer of the prestressing by adhesion between reinforcement and concrete becomes more effective.

Une variante de la méthode conforme à l'invention est mentionnée dans la partie caractéristique de la revendication 4.A variant of the method according to the invention is mentioned in the characteristic part of claim 4.

Un autre aspect de l'invention vise un écran autoportant pour la fermeture des têtes de moules et pour l'ancrage des armatures en vue de la mise en oeuvre d'une méthode selon la revendication I ou la revendication 4, écran qui est constitué comme indiqué dans la partie caractérisante de la revendication 5 ou de la revendication 6, ou de la revendication 7 ou de la revendication 8.Another aspect of the invention relates to a self-supporting screen for closing the mold heads and for anchoring the reinforcements with a view to implementing a method according to claim I or claim 4, a screen which is constituted as indicated in the characterizing part of claim 5 or claim 6, or claim 7 or claim 8.

Encore un autre aspect de l'invention vise une installation pour la fabrication de produits en béton précontraint par armatures adhérentes, pour la mise en oeuvre de la méthode de la revendication 1 qui se caractérisé en ce qu'elle comporte des écrans mobiles et autoportants selon l'une quelconque des revendications 5 à 8.Yet another aspect of the invention relates to an installation for the manufacture of prestressed concrete products by adhesive reinforcement, for the implementation of the method of claim 1 which is characterized in that it comprises mobile and self-supporting screens according to any one of claims 5 to 8.

Avantageusement, une installation conforme à l'invention pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé de la revendication 2 est constituée comme indiqué dans la revendication 10.Advantageously, an installation according to the invention for implementing the method of claim 2 is constituted as indicated in claim 10.

Avantageusement, une installation conforme à l'invention pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé de la revendication 3 est constituée comme indiqué dans la revendication 11.Advantageously, an installation according to the invention for implementing the method of claim 3 is constituted as indicated in claim 11.

Avantageusement une installation conforme à l'invention pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé de la revendication 4 est constituée comme indiqué dans la revendication 12.Advantageously, an installation in accordance with the invention for implementing the method of claim 4 is constituted as indicated in claim 12.

De préférence les dispositifs de mise en place en groupe des armatures comportant plusieurs bras, à tête basculante, dont l'un fixe et l'autre ou les autres mobiles au long des moules de manière que, dans la position "bras serrés" (à l'une des deux extrémités des moules), on fixe les écrans, autoportants ou non, sur lesdites têtes et on enfile les armatures e travers lesdits écrans et de manière que, dans la position "bras écartés", on bascule l'ensemble "écrans-armatures" dans les moules.Preferably the devices for grouping the reinforcement comprising several arms, with tilting head, one of which is fixed and the other or the other are movable along the molds so that, in the "arms tight" position (at one of the two ends of the molds), the screens are fixed, freestanding or not, on the said heads and the frames are threaded through the said screens and so that, in the "arms apart" position, the assembly is tilted " screen-frames "in the molds.

Avantageusement, les dispositifs de mise en tension en groupe par coulissement en biais par rapport aux moules comportent des axes coulissant à l'intérieur des manchons, ceux-ci se trouvant fixés en biais aux extrémités, de la structure de prise en charge de la force de mise en tension, axes dotés de moyens d'accrochage des écrans de tête et de moyens de coulissement, de manière que, par leur rapprochement par rapport aux moules, ils assurent la détension lente des armatures, facilitent le démoulage en paquet et liberent les écrans de tête qui restent plaqués aux extrémités des produits démoulés.Advantageously, the group tensioning devices by sliding at an angle with respect to the molds have axes sliding inside the sleeves, the latter being fixed at an angle to the ends of the force-taking structure. of tensioning, axes provided with means for hooking the head screens and sliding means, so that, by their approximation relative to the molds, they ensure the slow expansion of the reinforcements, facilitate demolding in packages and release the head screens which remain pressed against the ends of the demolded products.

Avantageusement, les dispositifs de mise en tension en groupe par basculement comportent d'une part, des bras dotés de moyens de basculement, montés aux deux extrémités de la structure de prise en charge de la force de mise en tension et, d'autre part, des poutres de résistance pourvues de moyens de fixation aux bras basculants, de moyens d'accrochage des écrans de tête et de moyens de blocage desdits écrans. Dans certains cas, lorsque la détension des armatures est appelée à aider la sortie des produits hors des moules, on monte lesdits bras basculants sur les têtes de la structure porteuse par l'intermédiaire d'appareils de glissement en biais.Advantageously, the group tensioning devices by tilting comprise, on the one hand, arms provided with tilting means, mounted at the two ends of the structure for taking charge of the setting force. in tension and, on the other hand, resistance beams provided with means for fixing to the tilting arms, means for hooking the head screens and means for blocking said screens. In certain cases, when the slackening of the reinforcements is called upon to aid the exit of the products from the molds, said rocking arms are mounted on the heads of the support structure by means of biasing devices.

De préférence, les bancs de moules autoportants comportent une ossature métallique garnie de coquilles capable de prendre en charge les efforts de mise en tension, équipée d'écrans mobiles et autoportants et, dans certains cas, de dispositifs de mise en tension en groupe, ossature pouvant être dotée de moyens de roulement.Preferably, the self-supporting mold banks have a metal frame furnished with shells capable of taking charge of the tensioning efforts, equipped with mobile and self-supporting screens and, in certain cases, group tensioning devices, frame can be provided with rolling means.

Les écrans mobiles et autoportants, les dispositifs de mise en place et de mise en tension en groupe et les bancs de moules autoportants, ci-avant décrits, permettent d'améliorer, d'une part, les structures porteuses des moules et, d'autre part, les installations de durcissement du béton et de démoulage des divers procédés.The mobile and self-supporting screens, the group setting-up and tensioning devices and the self-supporting benches of molds, described above, make it possible to improve, on the one hand, the load-bearing structures of the molds and, on the other hand, the concrete hardening and demoulding facilities for the various processes.

Ainsi, les bancs de moules autoportants d'une certaine longueur peuvent être soit fixés au sol, soit notamment déplacés dans des circuits de fabrication "en chaîne" de type ordinaire ou de type utilisant la rotation.Thus, the self-supporting mold banks of a certain length can either be fixed to the ground, or in particular moved in "chain" manufacturing circuits of the ordinary type or of the type using rotation.

Pour les installations mettant en oeuvre les procédés "hall rotatif" et "tambour rotatif" procédés utilisant la rotation à axe horizontal, la méthode et les divers dispositifs permettent de réaliser des nouvelles structures porteuses qui passent les bancs de moules autoportants ou des batteries de moules ordinaires à travers une installation de traitement thermique de choc et les présentent face à une installation de démoulage à fonctions multiples, de manière que les produits démoulés en paquet, munis dans certains cas d'écrans autoportants, soient transférés à travers une chambre de refroidissement sur une chaîne d'évacuation où peuvent être récupérés les écrans autoportants.For installations implementing the "rotary hall" and "rotary drum" processes using the horizontal axis rotation, the method and the various devices make it possible to produce new load-bearing structures which pass the self-supporting mold banks or mold batteries ordinary through a shock heat treatment installation and present them facing a multi-function demolding installation, so that the products demoulded in a package, provided in some cases with self-supporting screens, are transferred through a cooling chamber to an evacuation chain where freestanding screens can be recovered.
