Description

  The present invention relates to a soil improvement device, and more particularly to a soil improvement device capable of uniformly mixing a solidifying agent with various types of soil.

  In general, waste soil discharged in connection with construction is reused by making it into a backfill material mixed with a solidifying agent, or by commercializing it at an intermediate treatment facility. However, when there is no intermediate treatment facility or the like nearby that mixes the solidifying agent with various soils, it is rarely brought into landfill and reused as a material for backfilling.

  In addition, the post-treatment of radioactively contaminated earth and sand has become a social problem. This contaminated earth and sand cannot be reused for backfilling. However, even when the earth and sand are finally disposed of, they are mixed with a solidifying agent and hardened to a particle size of a predetermined size, and are further disposed of in a state of being mixed in concrete and mortar. This is the current situation.

  Therefore, the present applicant proposes Patent Document 1 and provides a stirrer that can be solidified to an appropriate particle size by uniformly mixing a solidifying agent with earth and sand in order to mix contaminated earth and sand with concrete and mortar. doing. With this agitation device, by adding a solidifying agent to soil contaminated with cesium or the like and passing it through a continuous mixing mixer, even sand and sand containing moisture can be solidified to a predetermined particle size. Has succeeded.

  Furthermore, the present applicant has proposed the stirring apparatus of Patent Document 2 in order to uniformly mix the solidifying agent with the earth and sand. This stirrer is designed to break up a lump of earth and sand at both ends of the inlet and outlet of the earth and sand conveyance feeder that conveys earth and sand. A sand and sand mixing mixer is installed on the inlet side of the earth and sand conveyance feeder and discharged from the outlet side. A solidifying agent mixer is installed to mix the solidifying material with the earth and sand. With such a configuration, the solidifying agent can be uniformly added to the soil before stirring.

  Like the stirring apparatus of patent document 1, it became possible to make it settle to the particle size of a predetermined size by allowing even the earth and sand in which water | moisture content, sand, etc. which were mixed to mix were passed through a continuous mixing mixer. Moreover, like the stirring apparatus of patent document 2, the process of solidifying to the particle size of predetermined size can be accelerated by breaking up the lump of earth and sand at both ends of the inlet and outlet of the earth and sand conveyance feeder and mixing the solidifying agent. it can.

  On the other hand, the solidifying agent for solidifying the earth and sand is previously stored in the additive tank, and a certain amount of the solidifying agent is discharged from the additive tank through the additive continuous metering feeder. And the amount of solidifying agent adjusted by this additive continuous metering feeder is mixed with earth and sand.

  However, when trying to feed the solidifying agent stored in the additive tank to the additive continuous metering feeder with one screw, the solidifying agent tends to be condensed on the tip side of the screw. That is, if the tip end side of the screw is not released, the condensed material does not move, the screw is subjected to resistance, the drive unit is damaged or the blade of the screw is damaged, and the screw itself cannot be used. For this reason, there is a possibility that accurate measurement cannot be performed when a certain amount of the solidifying agent is conveyed by the additive continuous measurement feeder.

  In addition, if the work is completed with the solidification agent remaining inside the additive tank, the solidification agent remaining inside will condense overnight, which requires a lot of labor to maintain the additive tank at the end of the work. It was.

  Therefore, the present invention was created to solve the above-mentioned problems, and by preventing condensation of the solidifying agent in the additive tank, the amount of solidifying agent discharged from the additive continuous metering feeder is made accurate, An object of the present invention is to provide a soil improvement device that can simplify the soil improvement work by freeing maintenance of the solidifying agent remaining in the additive tank.

The solidifying agent Q is configured to move inside the additive tank 10.

  The feed blade 14 of the second means is installed on the rotary shaft 13A on the distal end side in the feed direction of each feed screw 13 and changes the course of the solidifying agent Q toward the proximal end side in the feed direction of the adjacent feed screw 13. It is configured to do.

  The third means is to form an opening 11 in the upper part of the additive tank 10 and arrange a sharp projection 15 inside the opening 11 to cut the bottom of the flexible container bag R containing the solidifying agent Q. The solidifying agent dispersion 16 composed of a plurality of housings is arranged between the sharp projection 15 and the feed screw 13, and the feed screw 13 is arranged in the solidifying agent dispersion 16.

By installing a pair of feed blades 14 that change the feed direction at the end of each feed screw 13 so that the solidifying agent Q always moves, the motor that rotates the feed screw 13 stops or the feed screw 13 There is no risk of damage. As a result, the solidifying agent discharge amount can be made accurate. In addition, the feed screw 13 can be reliably rotated in the initial operation even after one night has elapsed since the solidifying agent Q was stored in the additive tank 10.

  As in claim 2, the feed blade 14 is installed on the rotary shaft 13 </ b> A on the distal end side in the feed direction of each feed screw 13, and the course of the solidifying agent Q is directed toward the proximal end side in the feed direction of the adjacent feed screw 13.

  Examples of the present invention will be described below. The basic configuration of the present invention is a soil improvement device including an additive tank 10, an additive continuous metering feeder 20, a continuous mixing mixer 30, and a sediment transporting feeder 40 (see FIG. 1).

  The additive tank 10 is a tank for storing an additive such as a solidifying agent Q. A predetermined amount of the solidifying agent Q is discharged from the additive tank 10 through an additive continuous measuring feeder 20 and mixed with the accumulated sediment P. (See FIG. 1). This earth and sand P is thrown into the continuous mixing mixer 30 while being mixed with the solidifying agent Q by the solidifying agent mixer 50 while being conveyed to the continuous mixing mixer 30 by the earth and sand conveying feeder 40.

  An opening 11 is formed in the upper part of the additive tank 10, and a lid 18 is detachably applied to the opening 11 (see FIG. 3). And the solidification agent Q accommodated in the flexible container bag R is thrown in into the additive tank 10 from the opening part 11 which removed the cover body 18 (refer FIG. 1). Moreover, the discharge port 12 is formed in the lower part of the additive tank 10, and the solidifying agent Q is discharged in a lightweight manner through the additive continuous metering feeder 20 connected to the discharge port 12 (see FIG. 3).

  A sharp projection 15 is disposed inside the opening 11 of the additive tank 10 (see FIG. 2). And it is comprised so that the bottom part of the flexible container bag R which accommodated the solidification agent Q with this sharp protrusion 15 may be torn (refer FIG. 1). The sharpened projecting body 15 shown in the figure has a shape in which two isosceles triangular support plates 15A are combined in a planar cross shape, and a projection 15B is formed on the top of the support plate 15A (see FIG. 4). . And after piercing this sharp protrusion 15 in the bottom part of the flexible container bag R and opening a hole, since the support plate 15A widens this hole, the solidifying agent Q can be discharged efficiently.

  Since the solidifying agent Q stored in the flexible container bag R may be condensed by the weight of the solidifying agent Q when thrown into the flexible container bag R, the solidifying agent Q is required to be stored before being stored in the additive tank 10. The solidifying agent Q is dispersed in the dispersion 16 to form a gap between the powder dispersion 16 and the feed screw 13. The solidifying agent dispersion 16 is a plurality of bowl-shaped members disposed between the sharp projection 15 and the internal feed screw 13 (see FIG. 3). The illustrated solidifying agent dispersion 16 is arranged horizontally and vertically in two stages inside the opening 11 (see FIG. 4). The upper dispersion 16A in the upper stage has an angle shape, and the lower dispersion 16B in the lower stage has a square pipe shape. In particular, when the lower dispersion 16B is disposed so as to surround the upper periphery of the feed screw 13, the feed screw 13 rotates stably. In the experiment, the smoothest movement was realized when the lower dispersion 16B was provided at three places as shown (see FIG. 5).

  Inside the additive tank 10, a pair of feed screws 13 in which the feed direction of the solidifying agent Q is set in the opposite direction are arranged in parallel (see FIG. 2). Each feed screw 13 is provided with a drive motor 17, and each drive motor 17 is rotated (see FIG. 5). Then, the solidifying agent Q is fed in the opposite directions along the longitudinal direction of the feed screw 13 (see FIG. 2). When using a pair of feed screws 13, it is possible to move in a plane by arranging them side by side and in parallel. The height can be made lower than when used up and down, and the length can be adjusted. Can be provided.

  Further, a feed blade 14 is installed on the leading end side in the feed direction of each feed screw 13, and the course of the solidifying agent Q is changed toward the base end side in the feed direction of the adjacent feed screw 13. The illustrated feed blade 14 includes a shaft body 14A attached to the outer surface of the rotation shaft 13A of the feed screw 13 (see FIG. 6). As the rotary shaft 13A rotates, the shaft body 14A also rotates, and the blades 14B provided radially on the peripheral side surface of the shaft body 14A rotate (see FIG. 7). Therefore, the solidifying agent Q can be fed in the direction of the adjacent feed screw 13 by rotating the feed screw 13. Thus, the solidifying agent Q in the additive tank 10 is always moved to prevent condensation of the solidifying agent Q and to prevent the feed screw 13 from stopping.

  The solidifying agent Q in the additive tank 10 is added to the earth and sand P after being lightened by the additive continuous metering feeder 20 connected to the discharge port 12 of the additive tank 10 (see FIG. 3). The illustrated additive continuous metering feeder 20 includes a spiral metering screw 21 that is disposed under the additive tank 10 and feeds the solidifying agent Q that falls from the additive tank 10. Then, an appropriate amount of the solidifying agent Q pushed out by the measuring screw 21 is discharged from an openable / closable lid 22 provided at the tip (see FIG. 1).

  The type and amount of the solidifying agent Q such as cement, lime-based solidifying agent, water-soluble polymer, and flocculant are adjusted according to the state and purpose of the earth and sand P. The soil P solidified to a certain particle size is effectively used as a material for building materials, roadbed materials, landfill materials, soil improvement materials, etc. by mixing with cement or concrete.

  The continuous mixing mixer 30 is configured to knead the earth and sand P and the solidifying agent Q (see FIG. 1). The continuous mixing mixer 30 is formed in a spiral shape that is provided around the rotary shaft 31 with a high-speed rotary blade 32 and is spaced from the high-speed rotary blade 32 so as to rotate in reverse with respect to the high-speed rotary blade 32. The feed blade 33 is provided.

  The high-speed rotary blade 32 is a member erected on the side surface of the rotary shaft 31 and configured to crush the earth and sand P. When the high-speed rotary blade 32 is rotated at a high speed, the earth and sand P horizontally moved by the feed blade 33 is lifted from the periphery of the rotary shaft 31 and dropped (see FIG. 1). And by this effect | action, it becomes possible to shape | mold earth and sand P to the granule of predetermined size. As a result, the earth and sand P in the continuous mixing mixer 30 can be vigorously stirred and pulverized.

  On the other hand, the feed blade 33 is a spiral blade member and is configured to rotate reversely with respect to the high-speed rotary blade 32. By this feed blade 33, the agitated earth and sand P is sequentially sent in the discharge direction (see FIG. 1). In the illustrated example, two spiral feed blades 33 are provided, but the number of the feed blades 33 can be arbitrarily changed.

  The earth and sand transport feeder 40 is an apparatus for introducing earth and sand P into the continuous mixing mixer 30 (see FIG. 1). That is, when the accumulated earth and sand P is thrown into the rear end portion of the earth and sand transport feeder 40, the transport screw 41 is transported to the front end portion and dropped into the continuous mixing mixer 30.

  The solidifying agent mixer 50 is a device installed at the tip of the earth and sand conveyance feeder 40 (see FIG. 1). By mounting this solidifying agent mixer 50 on the discharge port side of the sediment transport feeder 40, the solidifying agent Q discharged from the additive continuous metering feeder 20 and the sediment P discharged from the sediment transport feeder 40 are solidified. It mixes with the agent mixer 50, and is comprised so that it may inject into the continuous mixing mixer 30. FIG.

  The illustrated solidifying agent mixer 50 is provided with a fixed frame 53 so as to overlap the inside of the frame body 52 (see FIG. 8). Further, a rotating shaft 54 is provided between the fixed frame 53 and the tip of the conveying screw 41, and a rotating blade 51 is attached to the rotating shaft 54 (see FIG. 9). Further, the rotary blade 51 includes a main rotary blade 51A mounted on the front end side of the rotary shaft 54, a sub rotary blade 51B mounted on the conveyance screw 41 side of the rotary shaft 54, and a front end side of the main rotary blade 51A. It is comprised with the control board 51C which is mounted | worn and blocks | prevents movement of the earth and sand P (refer FIG. 8).

  The sediment P discharged from the sediment transport feeder 40 is first cut and crushed by the sub-rotary blade 51B (see FIG. 8). Next, the earth and sand P pushed out in a crushed state is pushed back in the direction of the sub rotary blade 51B by the main rotary blade 51A. At this time, the solidifying agent Q sprinkled on the earth and sand P is mixed. The control plate 51C prevents the earth and sand P from moving forward so that the earth and sand P does not advance before the main rotary blade 51A.

  Each configuration of the present invention is not limited to the illustrated example, and the configuration can be arbitrarily changed without changing the gist of the present invention. For example, the present invention is mounted on a vehicle. It is also possible to configure. The soil improved by the apparatus of the present invention can be reused as a material for backfilling in addition to final disposal in a state of being mixed in concrete or mortar after solidifying to a predetermined particle size.
