Definitions
- the subject of the present invention is a surface compacting method in which a compacting tool is driven in rotation, along an axis parallel to a surface to be compacted, comprising a driving portion having a lower face and a face. wedge-shaped upper section meeting at a leading edge, the lower face of the leading portion extending towards the rear of the compacting tool by a convex sole developed outside the revolution described by the leading edge during rotation, and that the compaction tool is further displaced in translation, in a direction parallel to the surface to be compacted, so as to advance the compacting tool relative to the surface to be compacted, the compaction tool being oriented and adjusted so that, during the rotational movement, the leading part comes sliding on the surface to be compacted, the sole then sliding on the surface e by pressing on it to compact the surface.
- the gravel can be compacted with or without the addition of a binder.
- the sole may in particular comprise means for texturing the surface to be compacted capable of roughening said surface.
- These texturing means may for example consist of ribs on the lower surface of the sole or points protruding from the lower surface of the sole.
- the compacting tool 1 consists of a tooth holder 2 on which are mounted a tooth 3 and a sole 4.
- the tooth 3 constitutes the leading portion of the compacting tool. It takes the form of a wedge, having a lower face and an upper face 5 which meet at a leading edge 6.
- the Figure 2 represents an example of how to fix the tooth 3 to the tooth holder 2.
- the attachment is made by interlocking a protruding portion 7 of the tooth carrier 2, forming a tenon and here taking the form of a corner, and a hollow portion of the tooth 3, forming a mortise of complementary shape.
- Fastening is provided by a key 8 which is inserted into through openings 9, 10 provided in the transverse walls of the tooth 3 and the protruding portion 7 of the tooth holder 2. Any other method of attachment known in the art. technique can be envisaged, the tooth 3 and the tooth holder 2 can also be designed in one piece.
- the sole 4 of the compacting tool extends the lower face of the tooth 3, these two parts being separated by a base 12 of the tooth holder 2.
- the sole 4 is a wear sole having rectangular lower and upper faces and having a convex longitudinal profile. When the sole 4 is new, its thickness is constant along its longitudinal profile.
- the width of the sole 4 defines the compacting width of the tool 1. As this width is generally smaller than the length of the sole 4, a rectangular imprint is obtained on the compacted soil. It is by juxtaposition of several tools 1 of such a moderate width that it will be possible to compact large areas.
- the sole 4 is engaged on the lower surface of the tooth carrier 2, abutting between the heel 11 of the tooth carrier 2 and a base 12 carrying the projecting portion 7 of the tooth carrier 2.
- the lower surface of the carrier tooth 2 is itself convex, so as to have a complementary profile to the sole 4.
- the attachment between the sole 4 and the tooth holder 2 is provided by keys 19 which engage in openings 13,14 formed respectively in the sole 4 and in the tooth-
- the sole 4 is preferably made of steel, possibly reinforced with tungsten carbide parts, and can be cast or forged.
- the compaction tool 1 is moved in translation. This movement is obtained for example by mounting the tool 1 on a dedicated mobile machine such as a truck, a tractor or a digger or a gear designed specifically for the tool.
- a dedicated mobile machine such as a truck, a tractor or a digger or a gear designed specifically for the tool.
- the speed of rotation of the tool will be adjusted to its speed of translation, so that these two speeds are proportional to one another.
- an acceleration of the speed of the machine will cause an acceleration of the rotation of the tool 1, to maintain a regular and uniform compaction as the vehicle moves.
- Both speeds will be preferably adjusted so that the speed of rotation at the periphery of the compaction tool is always greater than or equal to the speed of translation.
- the rotational speed at the periphery of the compacting tool is greater than the translational speed
- the compacting tool 1 passes several times vertically to the same point of the surface to be compacted, which allows obtain a continuous trace of the sole in the surface to be compacted.
- the particular case in which the rotational speed at the periphery of the tool 1 is equal to its translational speed can be conceived in particular to embed chippings brought to the ground. In this case, the same tool only passes once under the same point.
- the pitch is itself a function of the speed of translation of the machine and the speed of rotation of the rotor.
- the tool When the tool is rotated while following a translation movement driven by a machine carrier, it makes successive passes vertically above the surface to be compacted, each passage being offset from the previous passage according to the translation pitch p. If we consider the successive passages n and n + 1 of the tool on the surface to be compacted, we can establish a relationship between the process parameters given above and the height of material engaged under the sole of the tool .
- the height H of material engaged under the sole is defined by the intersection of the cylinder described by the heel of the sole at passage n and the cylinder described by the edge of the tooth at passage n + 1.
- a total or partial servo system can therefore continuously adjust the speed of translation of the carrier, the rotational speed of the rotor and / or the position of the compaction tool to optimize the number of passes required for compaction. effective.
- FIG. Figure 3 there is shown a schematic view of a compaction tool 1 according to the embodiment shown in FIG. Figures 1 and 2 .
- the sole 4 of this type of compaction tool 1 will preferably be made of forged steel.
- the sole 4 is new and has a constant thickness along its length. It should be noted, however, that due to the configuration of the compaction tool 1, the sole 4 undergoes more wear at its heel than at its front. Indeed, the heel is the part of the sole 4 which has the most important support on the surface to be compacted and is subject in return to the most important constraints. For this reason, the thickness of the heel of the sole 4 is brought to decrease faster than that of its front part.
- the outsole system according to the invention offers the possibility of returning a worn sole 4 to extend its life, placing the most worn part at the front of the sole 4.
- the Figure 4 represents a compaction tool 1 according to another embodiment.
- the sole 4 ' is fixed thereto by a system of studs 15 which protrude from the upper surface of the sole 4' and fit into complementary shaped mortises provided in the lower surface of the tooth holder 2.
- the tenons are maintained by keyways that fit into openings 16 provided in the lateral faces of the tooth holder 2 and tenons 15.
- This type of sole 4 ' is preferably made of cast steel.
- FIGS. 5 to 7 represent particular embodiments of the flanges 4, 4 '.
- the sole 4 is reinforced by transverse bars 17, made of a material of high mechanical strength, such as tungsten carbide. It is advantageous to provide a bar 17 'heel wider than the other bars, for example 2 to 3 cm, this part of the sole 4 being subjected to greater wear than the rest of the sole 4.
- a cross section of a compaction module 30 in a sectional view. It comprises a hollow cylindrical rotor 31 carrying at its periphery several compaction tools 1. As shown in this Figure, the same cross section of the rotor 31 comprises several compacting tools 1 (in the case shown, three compaction tools 1). Each compacting tool 1 is connected to the periphery of the rotor 31 by a connecting star 32. The paths traveled respectively by the tooth 3 of a tool 1 and by the back of the sole 4 of a tool 1 are shown in dashed lines and show the eccentricity e of the compacting tools 1.
- the convexity of the sole 4 is defined in relation to the radius of rotation of the compacting tool 1 carried by the rotor 31 so that the sole 4 is developed outside the cylinder of revolution described by the leading edge. of the compacting tool 1 during rotation.
- the eccentricity e is therefore positive.
- FIG. 8b there is shown a projected view on a flat surface of a compaction module 30 'made according to another embodiment of the invention.
- the module of the Figure 8b consists of a cylindrical rotor 31, which has been shown the peripheral surface in a projected view, rotor 31 on which are mounted a plurality of compaction tools 1.
- the tools 1 are both distributed along the axis of the rotor 31, and according to its circumference. With regard to the circumferential distribution, each cross section of the rotor 31 comprises two compacting tools 1. With regard to the distribution along the axis of the rotor 31, the tools 1 are offset laterally to one another, with no lateral space between them or with minimal overlap so as to cover the compacting surface without discontinuity.
- the Figure 9a represents a compaction module 30 "according to another embodiment
- the module 30 consists of a hollow cylindrical rotor 31 mounted on a shaft 41 driven in rotation by a motor, such as a hydraulic motor 40, represented in a manner schematic in this Figure.
- the assembly is connected, via a backplate system 61, to an articulated arm 60 connected to a carrier not shown, the arm 60 is also shown schematically.
- the rotor 31 carries several compaction tools 1, connected to the rotor 31 by connecting stars 32.
- the compacting tools 1 are offset relative to each other along the axis of the drum 31, each tool 1 being disposed laterally to its neighbor, with no lateral space between them or with a minimal overlap, so that all the 1 covers continuously the width of the rotor 31.
- each tool 1 can be changed independently of the other tools 1.
- the compaction tools 1 are also offset relative to each other according to the circumference of the drum. In this way, they come in contact successively with the surface to be compacted, and not all at the same time, which distributes in time the stress experienced by the surface. It also avoids the tools 1 do not interfere with each other.
- FIG. 9b On the Figure 9b is shown in axial section another type of compaction module 30 '', with vibrating rotor 31.
- the module 30 "' is composed of a hollow cylindrical rotor 31 on which are mounted, offset laterally and circumferentially relative to each other. to others, compaction tools 1 connected to the periphery of the rotor 31 by connecting stars 32.
- a hydraulic motor 40 (shown schematically) rotates the rotor 31 through a transmission composed of a shaft 41 connected to the motor 40 and mounted on the axis of the rotor 31 at a first end thereof.
- On the shaft 41 is fixed a rolling bearing system consisting of a cage 42 fixed to the end of the shaft 41 and a transverse flange 44 of the rotor 31.
- the inside of the cage 42 receives a bearing 43 which serves as a bearing for a long shaft 45 also mounted on the axis of the rotor, at a second end thereof.
- the second support of the shaft 45 is provided by another transverse flange 44 'of the rotor 31 and the bearing 43'.
- the rotor thus bears on the shafts 41 and 45 and the shaft 45 can rotate freely relative to the shaft 41.
- the rotation of the shaft 45, driven by another motor 48, is rapid and is independent of the shaft 41. It generates a vibratory movement of the rotor 31 by means of unbalanced 46.
- the shaft 45 transmits these vibrations to the rotor by transverse flanges 44 and 44 'of the rotor.
- Each of the shafts 41, 45 is connected to a support arm 60 by connecting pieces 51 and resilient supports 49 of the "silentbloc" type to absorb the movement of the rotor.
- Vibratory rotor compaction superimposes two ground frequency regimes. Low frequencies are transmitted by impact of the tools on the ground, and high frequencies are transmitted by vibration of the rotor. So the soil is subject to both regimes, which makes it allows to fully benefit from the arrangement of grains obtained with high frequencies.
- a compaction machine also called surface compactor
- the surface compactor consists of a tractor 150 having a cabin 152 placed at the front, and a motor 153 placed at the rear of the tractor 150.
- the cabin 152 and the engine 153 are supported on a frame 154 forming a neck of swan. Axles support the chassis.
- the tractor 150 of the Figure 10 is not represented as a limitation of vehicles or machines that can carry a compaction module for carrying out the compaction process according to the invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that not only many existing public works machinery can be adapted with such a compaction module, but also that it is possible to design gear specifically dedicated to this use.
- a compaction module 130 is mounted on the frame 154 of the tractor 150.

Description
La présente invention concerne le compactage en surface de sols ou de matériaux rapportés sur un sol, par exemple pour la réalisation de chaussées ou pour l'entretien des voies ferrées.The present invention relates to the compaction on the surface of floors or materials brought on a floor, for example for the production of roadways or for the maintenance of railways.
On sait que le compactage des sols ou des matériaux granulaires répandus en couche sur un sol est, de manière usuelle, effectué au moyen de compacteurs circulant sur la partie supérieure de la couche. Ces compacteurs utilisent des rouleaux pour appliquer à la partie supérieure de la couche un effort qui va induire une pression au sein du matériau et engendrer des déformations irréversibles de compactage.It is known that the compaction of soils or granular materials spread in layers on a soil is, in the usual way, carried out by means of compactors circulating on the upper part of the layer. These compactors use rollers to apply to the upper part of the layer a force that will induce pressure within the material and cause irreversible deformation compaction.
Le passage de ces engins lourds sur le sol peut provoquer un feuilletage de surface préjudiciable à la tenue à long terme de la structure, en particulier lors du compactage de sols argileux ou limoneux traités par un liant hydraulique. De plus, il peut être difficile de maîtriser les contraintes appliquées par ce type de compacteur, et plus encore de maitriser la hauteur de nivellement des sols compactés.The passage of these heavy machines on the ground can cause a surface lamination detrimental to the long-term behavior of the structure, in particular during the compaction of clay or silty soils treated with a hydraulic binder. In addition, it can be difficult to control the constraints applied by this type of compactor, and even more to control the leveling height of compacted soil.
Il apparaît donc d'un intérêt essentiel de pouvoir compacter le sol en surface avec une efficacité de compactage maximale, tout en maîtrisant les contraintes appliquées par le dispositif de compactage. Il apparaît également important de pouvoir maîtriser le réglage, c'est-à-dire la hauteur de nivellement, de la surface compactée ainsi que disposer d'un outil pouvant être utilisé dans différentes configurations de terrain, tel qu'un dispositif porté.
A cet effet, la présente invention a pour objet un procédé de compactage en surface dans lequel on entraîne en rotation, selon un axe parallèle à une surface à compacter, un outil de compactage comprenant une partie d'attaque ayant une face inférieure et une face supérieure formant un coin et se rencontrant au niveau d'une arête d'attaque, la face inférieure de la partie d'attaque se prolongeant vers l'arrière de l'outil de compactage par une semelle convexe développée à l'extérieur du cylindre de révolution décrit par l'arête d'attaque lors de la rotation, et que l'on déplace en outre l'outil de compactage en translation, dans une direction parallèle à la surface à compacter, de manière à faire avancer l'outil de compactage par rapport à la surface à compacter, l'outil de compactage étant orienté et réglé pour que, durant le mouvement de rotation, la partie d'attaque vienne glisser sur la surface à compacter, semelle venant ensuite glisser sur la surface en prenant appui sur celle-ci de manière à compacter la surface.For this purpose, the subject of the present invention is a surface compacting method in which a compacting tool is driven in rotation, along an axis parallel to a surface to be compacted, comprising a driving portion having a lower face and a face. wedge-shaped upper section meeting at a leading edge, the lower face of the leading portion extending towards the rear of the compacting tool by a convex sole developed outside the revolution described by the leading edge during rotation, and that the compaction tool is further displaced in translation, in a direction parallel to the surface to be compacted, so as to advance the compacting tool relative to the surface to be compacted, the compaction tool being oriented and adjusted so that, during the rotational movement, the leading part comes sliding on the surface to be compacted, the sole then sliding on the surface e by pressing on it to compact the surface.
La convexité du profil de la semelle convexe est telle que le profil de la surface inférieure de la semelle est développé à l'extérieur du cylindre de révolution décrit par l'arête d'attaque, ou, autrement dit, l'arrière de la semelle décrit un cylindre de révolution dont le diamètre est supérieur à celui décrit par le bord d'attaque. La différence entre le diamètre du cylindre décrit par l'arrière de la semelle et celui décrit par l'arête d'attaque, également appelée excentricité e, est donc positive.The convexity of the profile of the convex sole is such that the profile of the lower surface of the sole is developed outside the cylinder of revolution described by the leading edge, or in other words, the back of the sole. describes a cylinder of revolution whose diameter is greater than that described by the leading edge. The difference between the diameter of the cylinder described by the back of the sole and that described by the leading edge, also called eccentricity e, is positive.
Avantageusement, on ajuste la vitesse de rotation en périphérie de l'outil de compactage et/ou sa vitesse de translation pour qu'elles restent proportionnelles l'une à l'autre au cours du temps.Advantageously, the speed of rotation is adjusted at the periphery of the compaction tool and / or its speed of rotation. translation so that they remain proportional to each other over time.
On peut également rendre rugueuse la surface à compacter au cours du compactage à l'aide de moyens de texturage intégrés à l'outil de compactage, notamment à sa semelle.It is also possible to roughen the surface to be compacted during compaction by means of texturing means incorporated in the compacting tool, in particular at its sole.
On peut compacter un sol.We can compact a soil.
On peut également compacter une couche d'un ou de plusieurs matériaux de traitement et/ou de revêtement de surface, tel que des enrobés ou des gravillons, qui a été rapportée et facultativement régalée avant le compactage, sur un sol ou une autre couche d'un matériau rapporté.It is also possible to compact a layer of one or more surface treatment and / or coating materials, such as asphalt or gravel, which has been reported and optionally regaled prior to compaction, on a soil or other soil layer. 'a reported material.
On peut compacter les gravillons avec ou sans ajout d'un liant.The gravel can be compacted with or without the addition of a binder.
On peut compacter le sol ou une couche d'un matériau rapporté et/ou travaillé situé sous une voie ferrée de laquelle on a retiré préalablement le ballast, le compactage étant facultativement suivi d'un nouvel apport de ballast sur le sol compacté.It is possible to compact the soil or a layer of added and / or worked material located under a railway track from which the ballast has been previously removed, the compaction being optionally followed by a new ballast feed on the compacted soil.
Avantageusement, la semelle et/ou la partie d'attaque de l'outil de compactage sont amovibles.Advantageously, the sole and / or the attacking portion of the compacting tool are removable.
La semelle peut notamment comprendre des moyens de texturage de la surface à compacter aptes à rendre rugueuse ladite surface.The sole may in particular comprise means for texturing the surface to be compacted capable of roughening said surface.
Ces moyens de texturage peuvent par exemple consister en des nervures sur la surface inférieure de la semelle ou des pointes dépassant de la surface inférieure de la semelle.These texturing means may for example consist of ribs on the lower surface of the sole or points protruding from the lower surface of the sole.
Pour mieux illustrer l'objet de la présente invention, on va en décrire ci-après, à titre indicatif et non limitatif, plusieurs modes de réalisation particuliers permettant la mise en oeuvre du procédé de compactage selon l'invention, avec référence au dessin annexé.To better illustrate the object of the present invention, will be described below, by way of indication and not limitation, several particular embodiments for carrying out the compaction process according to the invention, with reference to the accompanying drawing .

La semelle 4 de l'outil de compactage vient prolonger la face inférieure de la dent 3, ces deux parties étant séparées par une embase 12 du porte-dent 2. La semelle 4 est une semelle d'usure présentant des faces inférieure et supérieure rectangulaires et présentant un profil longitudinal convexe. Lorsque la semelle 4 est neuve, son épaisseur est constante au long de son profil longitudinal. La largeur de la semelle 4 définit la largeur de compactage de l'outil 1. Cette largeur étant généralement plus faible que la longueur de la semelle 4, on obtient une empreinte rectangulaire sur le sol compacté. C'est par juxtaposition de plusieurs outils 1 d'une telle largeur modérée que l'on pourra réaliser le compactage de grandes surfaces. La semelle 4 vient s'emboiter sur la surface inférieure du porte-dent 2, en butée entre le talon 11 du porte-dent 2 et une embase 12 portant la partie en saillie 7 du porte-dent 2. La surface inférieure du porte-dent 2 est elle-même convexe, de façon à présenter un profil complémentaire à la semelle 4. La fixation entre la semelle 4 et le porte-dent 2 est assurée par des clavettes 19 qui viennent s'engager dans des ouvertures 13,14 ménagées respectivement dans la semelle 4 et dans le porte-dent 2.The sole 4 of the compacting tool extends the lower face of the
La semelle 4 est de préférence réalisée en acier, éventuellement renforcé de parties en carbure de tungstène, et peut être coulée ou forgée.The sole 4 is preferably made of steel, possibly reinforced with tungsten carbide parts, and can be cast or forged.
Conformément au procédé de compactage de l'invention, l'outil de compactage est mis en rotation selon un axe parallèle à la surface à compacter. A cet effet, l'outil peut être monté sur la branche d'une étoile 32 d'un rotor 31, comme représenté sur les
Selon le placement de l'outil de compactage par rapport à la surface à compacter, le coin formé par la face inférieure et la face supérieure 5 de la dent 3 peut venir pénétrer superficiellement dans la surface à compacter et en séparer une couche superficielle. Conformément au procédé de compactage de l'invention, la dent 3 glisse simplement par sa face inférieure sur la surface à compacter, sans en détacher de matière.According to the placement of the compacting tool with respect to the surface to be compacted, the corner formed by the lower face and the

En même temps que le mouvement de rotation, l'outil de compactage 1 est mis en mouvement de translation. Ce mouvement est obtenu par exemple en montant l'outil 1 sur un engin mobile dédié tel qu'un camion, un tracteur ou une pelle mécanique ou encore un engin conçu spécifiquement pour l'outil.At the same time as the rotational movement, the
On ajustera notamment la vitesse de rotation de l'outil à sa vitesse de translation, de manière à ce que ces deux vitesses soient proportionnelles l'une à l'autre. Ainsi, une accélération de la vitesse de l'engin entrainera une accélération de la rotation de l'outil 1, permettant de conserver un compactage régulier et homogène au fil du déplacement du véhicule. Les deux vitesses seront de préférence ajustées pour que la vitesse de rotation en périphérie de l'outil de compactage soit toujours supérieure ou égale à la vitesse de translation. Lorsque la vitesse de rotation en périphérie de l'outil de compactage est supérieure à la vitesse de translation, l'outil de compactage 1 passe plusieurs fois à l'aplomb d'un même point de la surface à compacter, ce qui permet d'obtenir une trace continue de la semelle dans la surface à compacter. Le cas particulier dans lequel la vitesse de rotation à la périphérie de l'outil 1 est égale à sa vitesse de translation peut notamment se concevoir pour enchâsser des gravillons apportés sur le sol. Dans ce cas, un même outil ne passe qu'une seule fois à l'aplomb d'un même point.In particular, the speed of rotation of the tool will be adjusted to its speed of translation, so that these two speeds are proportional to one another. Thus, an acceleration of the speed of the machine will cause an acceleration of the rotation of the
Lorsqu'on réalise le compactage d'un sol ou d'un matériau rapporté préalablement sur un sol ou sur une autre couche de matériau rapporté et éventuellement traité, il peut être utile d'ajuster les paramètres de procédé à la hauteur de matériau engagé sous la semelle de l'outil lors du compactage. Ces paramètres sont :
- l'excentricité e de l'outil ;
- le rayon R du rotor, qui est le rayon du cylindre de révolution parcouru par l'arête de la dent ; et
- le pas p de translation, qui est la distance de décalage de l'outil en un cycle de rotation, c'est-à-dire entre deux passages successifs dans le même sens de rotation à une hauteur déterminée, par exemple à la hauteur de l'axe du rotor.
- the eccentricity e of the tool;
- the radius R of the rotor, which is the radius of the cylinder of revolution traversed by the edge of the tooth; and
- the translational pitch p, which is the offset distance of the tool in a rotation cycle, that is to say between two successive passages in the same direction of rotation at a given height, for example at the height of the axis of the rotor.
Le pas est lui-même fonction de la vitesse de translation de l'engin et de la vitesse de rotation du rotor.The pitch is itself a function of the speed of translation of the machine and the speed of rotation of the rotor.
Lorsque l'outil est mis en rotation tout en suivant un mouvement de translation impulsé par un engin porteur, il effectue des passages successifs à l'aplomb de la surface à compacter, chaque passage étant décalé du passage précédent selon le pas de translation p. Si l'on considère les passages successifs n et n+1 de l'outil sur la surface à compacter, on peut établir une relation entre les paramètres de procédé énoncés ci-dessus et la hauteur de matériau engagé sous la semelle de l'outil. La hauteur H de matériau engagé sous la semelle est définie par l'intersection du cylindre décrit par le talon de la semelle au passage n et du cylindre décrit par l'arête de la dent au passage n+1.When the tool is rotated while following a translation movement driven by a machine carrier, it makes successive passes vertically above the surface to be compacted, each passage being offset from the previous passage according to the translation pitch p. If we consider the successive passages n and n + 1 of the tool on the surface to be compacted, we can establish a relationship between the process parameters given above and the height of material engaged under the sole of the tool . The height H of material engaged under the sole is defined by the intersection of the cylinder described by the heel of the sole at passage n and the cylinder described by the edge of the tooth at passage n + 1.
Si l'on se place dans un plan vertical, cette hauteur H est donc définie par l'intersection des cercles définis par les équations (1) et (2) (origine des axes placée au centre du rotor au passage n):
Ces équations permettent de calculer la hauteur yi du plan d'intersection défini ci-dessus, selon les équations (3) et (4).
A partir de la hauteur yi du plan d'intersection, c'est à dire la surface supérieure du matériau engagé sous la semelle de l'outil, on peut calculer la hauteur entre ce plan et le plan de la couche compactée, selon l'équation (5) .
Un système d'asservissement total ou partiel peut donc ajuster en permanence la vitesse de translation de l'engin porteur, la vitesse de rotation du rotor et/ou la position de l'outil de compactage pour optimiser le nombre de passages requis pour un compactage efficace.A total or partial servo system can therefore continuously adjust the speed of translation of the carrier, the rotational speed of the rotor and / or the position of the compaction tool to optimize the number of passes required for compaction. effective.

Dans encore un autre mode de réalisation, la semelle 4 est munie des pointes 18 faites d'un matériau de résistance élevée telle que le carbure de tungstène. Ces pointes 18 sont insérées dans l'épaisseur de la semelle 4, et dépassent de la surface inférieure de celle-ci avec une extrémité saillante. Cette extrémité leur permet de texturer le sol lors du compactage, afin de rendre celui-ci plus rugueux. La semelle peut comprendre plusieurs rangées de pointes 18. Celles-ci sont disposées de préférence en quinconce, c'est-à-dire chaque rangée décalée latéralement par rapport à la rangée voisine. Les pointes sont placées de préférence au niveau du talon de la semelle 4.In yet another embodiment, the sole 4 is provided with

L'excentricité e est donc positive.The convexity of the sole 4 is defined in relation to the radius of rotation of the

Le compactage avec un rotor vibrant permet de superposer deux régimes de fréquence au sol. Des fréquences faibles sont transmises par impact des outils sur le sol, et des fréquences élevées sont transmises par vibration du rotor. Le sol est donc soumis aux deux régimes, ce qui lui permet de bénéficier pleinement de l'arrangement des grains obtenu avec des fréquences élevées.Vibratory rotor compaction superimposes two ground frequency regimes. Low frequencies are transmitted by impact of the tools on the ground, and high frequencies are transmitted by vibration of the rotor. So the soil is subject to both regimes, which makes it allows to fully benefit from the arrangement of grains obtained with high frequencies.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation particulier, le module de compactage est intégré à un engin de type finisseur. Un finisseur sert à régaler et à pré-compacter les dernières couches de matériaux des chaussées, en particulier les couches de liaison et de roulement.In another particular embodiment, the compaction module is integrated with a finisher-type machine. A paver is used to trim and pre-compact the last layers of pavement materials, particularly the tie and roll layers.
Dans un finisseur de conception classique, un camion alimente une trémie d'enrobés chauds à appliquer sur le sol. Les enrobés sont amenés à l'arrière du finisseur par un système d'alimentation et une vis de répartition distribue les enrobés sur toute la largeur de la bande. Les enrobés s'engagent alors sous une règle transversale et sont pré-compactés par des plaques lissantes et vibrantes. Avec ce type de finisseurs, le gain de compacité obtenu après le pré-compactage est faible. Avant d'être livrés à la circulation, les enrobés ont donc besoin d'être compactés par des compacteurs à cylindres vibrants ou à pneumatiques.In a conventional design paver, a truck feeds a hopper of hot mixes to be applied to the ground. The mixes are fed to the rear of the paver by a feeding system and a distribution screw distributes the mix over the entire width of the strip. The asphalt then engage under a transverse rule and are pre-compacted by smoothing and vibrating plates. With this type of pavers, the compactness gain obtained after precompaction is low. Before being delivered to the circulation, asphalt mixes therefore need to be compacted by compactors with vibrating rollers or tires.

De plus, l'engin de compactage peut intégrer un système d'asservissement total ou partiel permettant d'adapter la force de compactage à la nature de la surface à compacter, que cette surface soit un sol ou la surface d'un matériau rapporté.In addition, the compacting machine may incorporate a total or partial servo system to adapt the compaction force to the nature of the surface to be compacted, whether the surface is a soil or the surface of a reported material.
On sait en effet que les propriétés du sol ou d'un matériau rapporté telles que sa masse volumique ou sa compacité peuvent varier selon sa nature. La mesure en continu de la force de réaction de la surface compactée sur l'outil de compactage ou de la puissance absorbée par le maintien de la vitesse de rotation du module de compactage permet de se renseigner sur ces propriétés.It is known that the properties of the soil or of a reported material such as its density or its compactness may vary according to its nature. The continuous measurement of the reaction force of the compacted surface on the compaction tool or the power absorbed by maintaining the speed of rotation of the compacting module makes it possible to learn about these properties.
On peut ainsi mesurer la force de réaction de la surface compactée à l'aide de moyens de mesure de la pression des vérins hydrauliques décrits précédemment. On peut aussi mesurer cette force à l'aide de jauges de contraintes placées dans les pièces mécaniques de maintien en position du rotor.It is thus possible to measure the reaction force of the compacted surface by means of measuring the pressure of the hydraulic cylinders described above. We can also measure this force using strain gauges placed in the mechanical parts holding the rotor in position.
On peut également se renseigner sur les propriétés de la surface compactée par la mesure de la puissance absorbée par le moteur qui entraîne en rotation le module de compactage, pour maintenir la vitesse de rotation du module.One can also learn about the properties of the compacted surface by measuring the power absorbed by the motor which rotates the compaction module, to maintain the speed of rotation of the module.
En réponse à l'une ou l'autre de ces mesures, ou à plusieurs d'entre elles, un système d'asservissement peut servir à maintenir à une valeur de consigne le module de réaction de la surface compactée. Le système d'asservissement peut par exemple agir sur l'apport de matériau lorsque l'on compacte un matériau rapporté ou sur la hauteur des matériaux engagés sous la semelle de l'outil de compactage. Le système d'asservissement peut également agir sur les moyens de positionnement en hauteur du bras de compactage pour modifier le positionnement en hauteur du bras de compactage. Il peut alors être associé à des moyens de positionnement en x, y et z du module de compactage, tels qu'une station totale avec GPS, éventuellement avec visualisation et enregistrement.In response to any or all of these measurements, a servo system can be used to maintain the reaction module of the compacted surface at a set point. The servo system can for example act on the supply of material when compacting a material added or on the height of the materials engaged under the sole of the compacting tool. The servo system can also act on the means for positioning the height of the compaction arm to modify the height positioning of the compaction arm. It can then be associated with positioning means in x, y and z of the compacting module, such as a total station with GPS, possibly with viewing and recording.

En plus du module de compactage qui assure aussi un malaxage, la pelle mécanique 1150 est équipée d'un système de distribution de chaux 1161 permettant un traitement à la chaux à faible dosage du sol à compacter. La chaux 1161 est stockée sur le bord de la tranchée dans une citerne équipée d'un compresseur (non représentés). Elle est envoyée par air pulsé dans le tuyau 1163 pour remplir une trémie étanche 1160 montée à l'extrémité du tuyau 1163 et fixée latéralement au carter 1158. Un tuyau 1164 permet d'évacuer l'air de la trémie 1160 vers la citerne, pour le restituer dans l'atmosphère une fois préalablement épuré par passage dans un filtre. Lors du remplissage de la trémie 1160, les vannes 1165, 1166, respectivement montées sur les tuyaux 1163, 1164 sont ouvertes pour permettre le remplissage de la trémie et l'échappement de l'air. Une fois la trémie remplie, les vannes 1165, 1166 se ferment, et un dispositif de dosage 1162, constitué par deux cylindres à fentes et situé à l'extrémité de la trémie 1160, s'ouvre pour permettre l'épandage de la chaux 1161. Une fois la trémie vidée, le dispositif de dosage 1162 se ferme et les vannes 1165, 1166 s'ouvrent pour permettre le remplissage de la trémie.

Les outils et modules de compactage permettant la mise en oeuvre du procédé de compactage selon l'invention peuvent également être utiles dans des applications relatives à la réfection des voies de chemin de fer.The tools and compaction modules for implementing the compaction method according to the invention may also be useful in applications relating to the rehabilitation of railway tracks.
On rappelle que le ballast joue un rôle d'amortisseur pour transmettre au sol les efforts dus au passage des trains et éviter que les traverses ne s'enfoncent petit à petit dans le sol.It is recalled that the ballast acts as a shock absorber to transmit to the ground the forces due to the passage of trains and prevent the sleepers from sinking little by little into the ground.
Toutefois, au fur et à mesure du passage des trains, les cailloux qui composent le ballast se fragmentent par attrition, ce qui entraîne un tassement du ballast et donc une dégradation de ses performances.However, as the trains pass, the pebbles that make up the ballast fragment by attrition, resulting in a settlement of the ballast and therefore a degradation of its performance.
Pour réparer les voies, on utilise un train spécialisé comportant des wagons munis d'un châssis et de bogies, qui permettent de soulever la voie, de cribler le ballast, de le renforcer avec des cailloux neufs de bonnes dimensions et de procéder au calage de la voie.To repair the tracks, a specialized train is used with wagons equipped with a chassis and bogies, which allow to raise the track, to screen the ballast, to reinforce it with new pebbles of good dimensions and to proceed to the calibration of the way.

Au cours de l'avancement du chariot sur sa glissière 1310, le ou les bras pivotent en repoussant le ballast latéralement.

Le système de dégagement du ballast décrit ci-dessus a été conçu pour permettre un travail en continu du wagon-atelier 1250. En effet, les systèmes d'extraction classiques du ballast sont limités par le temps dont ils ont besoin pour aspirer ou extraire le ballast. Le wagon 1250 est donc obligé d'avancer à une vitesse relativement faible, et le compactage, qui pourrait être plus rapide, est lui-même limité par l'étape d'extraction du ballast. Le système de dégagement du ballast décrit ci-dessus est plus rapide que les systèmes classiques d'extraction du ballast, et permet au wagon-atelier 1250 muni d'un système de compactage d'avancer plus rapidement sur la voie ferrée.The ballast clearing system described above has been designed to allow continuous work of the 1250 Workshop Car. Indeed, conventional ballast extraction systems are limited by the time they require to vacuum or extract the ballast. ballast. The
Cependant, l'homme du métier pourra facilement adapter le wagon-atelier 1250 en utilisant d'autres moyens d'extraction du ballast, tels que ceux décrits dans l'état de la technique: extraction mécanique, extraction par aspiration par exemple.However, the skilled person can easily adapt the 1250 workshop wagon using other ballast extraction means, such as those described in the state of the art: mechanical extraction, suction extraction for example.

Le sol situé sous les voies ferrées présente souvent une pente faible perpendiculairement à l'axe de la voie ferrée, pour permettre l'évacuation des eaux de pluies percolant le ballast vers des fossés ou un réseau de drainage. Il est donc avantageux de prévoir un système permettant le compactage de tels sols en pente.Soil beneath railway tracks often has a shallow slope perpendicular to the railway line, to allow drainage of rainwater from the ballast to ditches or drainage. It is therefore advantageous to provide a system for compacting such sloping floors.
