Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus for producing foamed bitumen for a road construction machine, comprising at least one mixing chamber having a reaction chamber in which hot bitumen and at least one reaction fluid via an inlet device, comprising at least one inlet nozzle can be merged and emptied from the mixing device via an outlet ,
- the present invention relates to a method for the maintenance of such a device.
- Such devices are needed for example in road construction machinery and in particular in recycling machines for road construction.
- a road construction machine is described for example in WO 96/24725. It comprises a rotary chamber in which a revolving work roll is arranged, which is arranged to adjust to the surface to be machined usually height and inclination adjustable. In this rotary chamber, the milling of an existing floor covering, the crushing of the milled material, the addition of binders and in particular foamed bitumen, mixing and distribution and feeding to an applicator to form a new pavement occurs.
- the device comprises at least one reaction chamber in which a mixing device is provided, in which hot bitumen at a temperature of 180 ° C and water via injection nozzles under pressure are merge.
- the device has a heatable foam reactor and heatable supply and distribution lines, wherein the lines can be additionally isolated.
- Several nozzles are arranged side by side along a distribution line. This distribution line is via a pipeline network with a central Foam reactor connected in which the bitumen foam for all nozzles is generated.
- an agitator is arranged in this foam reactor.
- the disadvantage of this device is that the foam reactor is very far away from the injectors, and so the already mixed foamed bitumen on the way to the nozzles partially disintegrates, so that among other things an accurate dosing of the foam is no longer possible.
- foamed binders is therefore preferably injected hot bitumen, water of reaction and optionally air in a mixing device or a reaction chamber formed therein of the road construction machine and introduced from there directly into the rotation chamber.
- the common injection leads to a mixing of the individual substances in the reaction chamber.
- the water evaporates abruptly and leads to a bitumen foam, and thus to the desired increase in volume of the binder.
- the addition of air in addition to the hot bitumen and water of reaction improves the distribution of the water, increasing the foam quality.
- the finished foam bitumen can exit into the rotary chamber of the road construction machine, where it is mixed with the raw road material.
- This finished material mixture is then applied via a corresponding application and smoothing device as a new road surface on a substructure.
- the mixing device thus comprises a reaction chamber into which at least parts of an inlet device and an outlet device open, for example a plurality of separate inlet nozzles for each reaction material to be processed into foamed bitumen.
- an inlet device for example a plurality of separate inlet nozzles for each reaction material to be processed into foamed bitumen.
- the outlet device usually comprises a fluid connection from the reaction chamber to the rotation chamber of the road construction machine, wherein here also an injection nozzle is used, through which the ready-mixed foamed bitumen is sprayed into the rotation chamber.
- the entire reaction chamber including the inlet and outlet means, is in contact with bitumen in the manufacture of the foam bitumen.
- bitumen in the manufacture of the foam bitumen.
- the inlet and outlet devices especially the existing injectors clog and no longer work at a restart .
- the risk of clogging also exists in the injection nozzle of the finished Schaumbitumens or a similar component through which the foam mixture exits into the rotary chamber of the road construction machine and comes here with the cold milled material in touch.
- DE 102 41 067 B3 describes a device for producing foamed bitumen, which has a stripping device at the respective inlet nozzles, through which nozzles possibly added are "free-formable".
- DE 297 02 162 U1 describes a device for producing foamed bitumen, in which for cleaning any clogged nozzles, a plunger per nozzle is provided, which can free a possibly added nozzle.
- the disadvantage here is that this complicated wiring is necessary to create space for the cleaning cylinder.
- the bitumen foam must first be diverted into a kind of secondary chamber until it then emerges into the rotary chamber of the road construction machine. The foam may already have lost quality due to this diversion.
- the aforementioned devices therefore has the disadvantage that the cleaning devices for the inlet and outlet devices, in particular for added nozzles bring a very complex construction with it, with a previous test for proper operation of the inlet and outlet devices not at all is possible. The result is malfunction and lack of quality of the finished product.
- the present invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a device for producing foamed bitumen, which allows a more reliable production of foamed bitumen and is also cheaper and more reliable in their manufacture and operation.
- this object is achieved by a device for producing Schaumbitumen for a road construction machine, with at least one reaction chamber having a mixing device in the hot bitumen and at least one reaction fluid via an inlet device comprising at least one inlet nozzleraitWORK1700bar and from the mixing device via an outlet device can be emptied, wherein at least one compressed air device is provided, via which the device and / or the outlet device for testing and / or cleaning purposes can be acted upon by a compressed air flow.
- this object is achieved by a method for the maintenance of a device according to the aforementioned type, with the following steps of a test method:
- foamed bitumen is understood to mean any material which finds its application as a road or similar floor covering and is assembled in a corresponding device.
- foamed bitumen include, inter alia, foamed bitumen, bitumen per se, but also foamed tar or the like binders to understand.
- hot bitumen is understood as meaning any binding agent that changes its state of aggregation from liquid to solid or to a state that clogs the previously described inlet or outlet devices in the presence of a break in work or in principle at the end of a certain period.
- the term intake or Auslassei device is understood in each case a compilation of the components that serve the leadership of the respective reaction products or building materials to and from the respective chambers, in particular so line systems with main and secondary lines, nozzles, valves, closures, etc.
- compressed air here means any fluid, However, preferably understood breathing air, which is transportable via inlet or outlet means and in particular for the admission of the inlet or outlet means by means of a corresponding printing device is suitable.
- fluids with appropriate cleaning additives can find their application, wherein the cleaning additives are fed, for example via a detergent device in the compressed air stream.
- a compressed air device is used, which is designed such that it is an admission of the inlet and / or outlet of the reaction chamber and possibly further coming into contact with bitumen components of the road construction machine allowed with compressed air. In this way it can be checked, in particular in conjunction with suitable measuring instruments, whether certain parts of the inlet or outlet devices, and in particular whether certain nozzles of the respective facilities clogged and, depending on the measuring devices used, and to what extent they are clogged.

- the steps of the test method are automatically carried out in the detection of a break in operation and / or an end of operation or a similar operating state of the device and / or falls below a certain component temperature.
- Such breaks often lead to hardening of the material contained in the rotary chamber or reaction chamber of the device and thus to an increase in the risk of clogging of the respective device.
- a falling below a certain component temperature of the device, for example, the respective nozzle temperature of the inlet and outlet devices increases the risk of clogging.
- the test method is started according to the invention in order to prevent a malfunction of the machine. Since it is still easily possible, especially at the beginning of curing, to clean possibly added inlet or outlet devices, the "early" introduction of such a method is advantageous.
- the inlet or outlet devices are subjected to a compressed air flow.
- all the inlet devices at the same time and then all outlet devices at the same time, or both devices can be acted upon simultaneously with a compressed air flow.

- At least one control device for example a valve at a nozzle of the inlet device, is then opened and the pressure profile at the pressure sensor is detected.
- the respective component can be classified as functional. However, if the pressure drop deviates from the desired pressure curve, the component must be classified as a fault component.
- the respective control device is closed again, the valve is opened at the central compressed air supply, and compressed air is again introduced into the line system. Subsequently, the "compressed air test" is performed on another component or component group of the inlet and / or outlet device, and so on.

For the sake of clarity, not all of the components previously shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 are also listed. Shown are five mixing devices 6, in whose reaction chambers 4 a plurality of reaction fluids 12, 14 and bitumen 8 are mixed to foam bitumen (see also and in the following also Fig. 1 and 2). As already mentioned, the reaction fluids 12, 14 and the bitumen 8 are injected via the inlet device 10 into the reaction chamber 4, where they are mixed and fed via the outlet device 16 to the rotation chamber 41 of the road construction machine 40. For the sake of clarity, only part of the inlet device 10, namely the water inlet line 62 for the reaction fluid water 12, is shown in FIGS. 3a-c, 4 and 5. However, the method steps for testing the other parts 14, 8 of the inlet device 10 are identical.
- each mixing device 6 or each reaction chamber and the inlet devices 10 and outlet devices 16 arranged thereon are in fluid communication with a compressed air device 20 via which a test and a maintenance of the bitumen coming into contact Line and nozzle components is possible.
- the compressed air device 20 has the compressed air compressor 21 or the like for compressed air supply, via which compressed air 23 can be guided via a central compressed air line 32 to compressed air secondary lines 34.
- Each compressed air secondary line 34 opens into a control device 30, which allows in the form of a controllable valve, the feeding of the compressed air supplied via the compressed air device 20 compressed air into the respective inlet device, here the water inlet line 62.
- compressed air 23 of the air compressor 21 is injected through the water inlet line 62 into the reaction chamber 4 when the valve is open.
- two further main valves 72, 74 are present on the central compressed air line, which is the introduction and discharge of the compressed air 23 in the central Allow compressed air line 32 and the compressed air secondary lines 34.
- valve 74 it is also possible to permanently close the central compressed air line 32 at this end.
- FIG. 3 a the device for producing foamed bitumen is shown schematically shortly before the activation of the test method, ie here with the compressed air supply 20 deactivated or the compressed air compressor 21 deactivated.
- the valve 74 is closed, the valve 72 is opened and supplied compressed air 23, so that the entire central compressed air line 32 fills with compressed air 23. Since all control devices 30 of the respective mixing devices 6 are closed, a pressure p builds up uniformly, as shown in FIGS. 3b and 3c. This pressure can be read on a display 37 of a pressure sensor device 36. As soon as the required maximum pressure in the central compressed air line 32 and the secondary compressed air lines 34 has been established, the valve 72 is closed (see FIG. 3c), so that a closed system is formed. The display 37 of the pressure sensor 36 indicates a setpoint or test pressure p max in this state.
- a check on the continuity of the water inlet lines 62 and their nozzles 60 can be performed by the targeted opening or activation of the respective control means 30.
- a control device 30 is opened while the remaining control devices 30 'to 30 "" remain closed.
- the display 37 observe a different pressure curve (see Fig. 4 and 5).
- the built-up air pressure builds up uniformly via the nozzle 60. This can be read on the display 37 of the pressure sensor device 36.
- the nozzle 60 is so blocked here that the air pressure applied via the pressure device 20 does not decrease or only insignificantly decreases. This is directly related to a fault and a blockage of the inlet device 10 and the outlet 16.
- a diagnosis of the outlet device is also possible directly via the pressure profile at the pressure display 37. If, for example, after opening the control device 30, the pressure on the display device 37 briefly drops and then stagnates, this indicates that, although the water inlet line 62 and its nozzle 60 are continuous, the outlet device 16 or its outlet line 66 is blocked (FIG. 2). Depending on the size of the reaction chamber volume of the reaction chamber 4, the short-term pressure drop to be observed here is greater or smaller.
- an activation signal can be output via a corresponding signaling device, for example to start a cleaning process, as will be described in detail below.
- a compressed air blast is preferably applied via the compressed air device 20 simultaneously to all inlet devices 10 and / or outlet devices 16, so that the respective components are cleaned of adhering bitumen residues.
- this method is performed at the beginning of a break, after certain working cycle lengths, or when converting the machine. By applying a blast of compressed air, the respective components are "blown free".
- control device (not shown), which is preferably integrated into the control system of the device according to the invention.
- This control device can then receive signals about the operating state, the operating temperature, the cycle length, breaks, resumption of work or complete shutdown of the machine via appropriate operating sensors and then start appropriate testing or cleaning procedures. Also, corresponding manual signals can be passed to the control device by the operator of the machine.
- Fig. 6 shows a schematic representation of another embodiment of the device according to the invention, in which case a mixing device 6 is shown with a reaction chamber 4, in which by means of an inlet device 10 reaction fluids (water 12 and air 14) and bitumen 8 are injected.
- the reaction fluids 12, 14 and the bitumen 8 are again introduced into the reaction chamber 4 via corresponding inlet lines 62, 64, 68.
- the supply of reaction compressed air 14 is thus ensured here via a reaction compressed air device 38, which generates its reaction compressed air 14 via a compressed air compressor 39
- the reaction compressed air device 38 now also forms the compressed air device 20, which serves to carry out the test and / or cleaning method according to the invention.
- a control device 30 is provided in the air inlet secondary line 65, which allows compressed air 23 or reaction compressed air 14 in the remaining parts of the inlet device 10, namely the water inlet secondary line 63 and the bitumen inlet secondary line 69 as needed.
- the reaction compressed air device 38 to a pressure sensor (not shown), in order to detect the pressure profile in the implementation of the respective test and cleaning steps.
- all other facilities previously necessary for the implementation of the method are then preferably provided.
