Abstract
In a device and a process for treating stones arranged in a stone layer, in particular stones made of concrete material, the stones are moved past at least one processing area on at least one transporter. In order to process the stones on their top side, they are tilted on an axis extending perpendicularly and/or transversely to the transport direction at the processing area by uneven areas in the transport route.
Description
- The manufacture of paving stones or other stones that are made of concrete material as a stone layer is a known process. The stones are not only manufactured in the rectangular or square stone layer or stone array in one process step, but generally remain in this stone layer or in their arrangement forming the stone layer during storage and transport and can then be laid as a complete stone layer.
- It is frequently desired that the stones of such a stone layer be mechanically processed on the visible top side and on the edge of the stone surrounding the top to produce an irregular surface structure and/or a rounded and/or partly broken stone edge.
- For this mechanical processing, bush hammering and rumbling machines are known that consist of a plurality of hammers that are spring-mounted on an oscillating beam or girder, which can be used to mechanically process stones, in particular such made of concrete material.
- It is an object of the invention is to present a method and a device to enable mechanical processing of the top surface of the stones of a stone layer beyond the upper edge of the stone without abandoning or disturbing the arrangement of the stones forming the stone layer.
- A method for treatment of stones arranged in a stone layer, in at least one processing area with a processing machine comprising a plurality of processing tools, on which the stone layers are moved on a transporter in a transport direction (A), wherein the stones are tilted on an axis extending perpendicularly and/or transversely to the transport direction (A) at the processing area by uneven areas in the transport route.
- The invention is described below in more detail based on exemplary embodiments with reference to the drawings, wherein:
-
FIG. 1 shows a simplified depiction in top view of a paving stone layer or array consisting of a plurality of paving stones made of concrete material with the edge processed on the top side; -
FIG. 2 shows a simplified depiction in top view of a machine or device for processing the stones of the stone layer; -
FIG. 3 and 4 each show a simplified depiction in side view of the two successive processing stations of the machine in the direction of transport ofFIG. 2 ; -
FIG. 5 shows a schematic depiction of the arrangement of elevations or uneven areas on the transport route of the machine inFIG. 2 ; -
FIG. 6 shows a simplified depiction in top view of a mask or frame element for use in the device ofFIG. 2 ; and -
FIG. 7 shows in a depiction similar toFIG. 4 a further possible embodiment of the processing station. - In the drawings, 1 is a stone layer, for example a paving stone layer consisting of
several stones 2 made of concrete material. Thestone layer 1 is manufactured in the usual manner in a mold as an entirety and is transported and laid, e.g. for creating a paved surface, as a unit, i.e. maintaining the arrangement of thestones 2 to each other. In thesquare stone layer 1 in the depicted embodiment, the square-shaped stones 2 are arranged with their edges parallel to the sides of thestone layer 1. - In order to achieve a rustic appearance similar to that of broken natural stones, the individual stones are mechanically processed or structured on their top side and on their
edges 3 surrounding the top so that they have a structured top 2.1 and a structured or irregular and partiallybroken edge 3. -
FIGS. 2-5 show, as an embodiment of the invention, amachine 4, which likewise is used to mechanically process thestones 2 ofstone layers 1 so that they not only have a structured top 2.1, but also a structured or irregular and partiallybroken edge 3 that gives them the overall rustic appearance. - The
machine 4 in the depicted embodiment has a singlehorizontal transport route 20, formed by atransport belt 21, which can be driven continuously as a closed loop by a drive not depicted and which forms the transport plane with the respective upper length 21.1 on which thestone layers 1 to be processed are located. With this upper length thetransport belt 21 is supported by and glides on an essentially level horizontal guide or gliding surface 22.1, which extends over the entire length and width of thetransport route 21 and is formed on the top of a table-like machine element. - The
stone layers 1 to be processed are fed directly one after the other to thetransport route 20 at a feed position 20.1. The processedstone layers 1 are removed from thetransport route 20 at an output position 20.2. During the transport in transport direction A from the feed position 20.1 to the output position 20.2 thestone layers 1 or thestones 2 forming these layers are moved beneath twoprocessing stations first processing station 23 in transport direction A is formed by a hammer mill 23.1, which features a plurality ofhammers 25 that are spring-mounted on an oscillating beam or girder that can move up and down. Thehammers 25 are arranged in several rows that extend perpendicular to transport direction A and each of which features a plurality of hammers above thestone layers 1, which are moved beneath theprocessing station 23. In the depicted embodiment the hammer mill 23.1 is designed as a rumbling machine withrounded hammers 25 on the bottom or working side. Other designs, such as a bush hammering machine with hammers with points or edges formed on the bottom, are also possible. - The
processing station 23 is followed in transport direction A by theprocessing station 24, at which thestones 2 are additionally processed on their top side and in particular also on theedges 3 already processed in theprocessing station 23, i.e. in the depicted embodiment are subjected to a kind of grinding process. - For this purpose, the
processing station 24 consists of aframe 26 that is closed on the perimeter and is oriented crosswise to transport direction A, i.e. perpendicular to or forming an angle with transport direction A and located horizontally with its frame plane. In thisframe 26, which extends over the entire width of thetransport route 20 and is open at both the top and bottom, several grinding orprocessing elements 27 are arranged so that they bear with their bottom side against the top side of thestones 2. - In the depicted embodiment the
processing elements 27, the bottom of which protrudes beyond the bottom of theframe 26, are stones of thestone layers 1. Theframe 26 can be moved by a suitable drive in at least one horizontal axis crosswise to the transport direction, but preferably in two horizontal axes, for example crosswise to transport direction A and also oscillating in transport direction A, so that theframe 26 with theprocessing elements 27 executes a rotating or circular motion on vertical axes and additionally is moved in transport direction A and/or crosswise to transport direction A. At the same time a vibrator can be provided on theframe 26, so that it is also moved vertically in an oscillating manner together with theprocessing elements 27. - The stone layers on the
transport belt 21 are moved with the belt through theprocessing stations - In order to reach the borders or
upper edges 3 of thestones 2 with thehammers 25 and theprocessing elements 27, thestones 2 are tilted slightly when moving past theprocessing stations processing stations projections 28, which form an uneven surface over theflexible transport belt 21 or over theupper length 21′ of thistransport belt 21 that causes thestones 2 to tilt. Thestones 2 are thus tilted at theprocessing stations FIGS. 5 and 6 , thus exposing theedges 3 and making them accessible for processing. Theprojections 28 are formed, for example, by screws with round heads. -
FIG. 5 shows an example for the arrangement of theprojections 28. They first form arow 29 crosswise to transport direction A, then in transport direction A tworows 30 extending diagonally to transport direction A and diverging in transport direction A, then tworows 31 likewise extending diagonally to transport direction A and diverging in transport direction A and then again onerow 32 extending crosswise to transport direction A. Other arrangements of theprojections 28 are also possible. Furthermore, it is possible to achieve the uneven areas for tilting of thestones 2 in the proximity of theprocessing stations - Furthermore, the
projections 28 are arranged so that they form at least two groups ofrows 30 beneath theprocessing station 23, which (groups) follow each other in the direction of transport, whereby therows 30 of the first group converge in the transport direction A, i.e. run together in a V-shape, and therows 30 of the second group diverge in the direction of transport A, i.e. run apart in a V-shape, as is the case with the tworows 30 depicted inFIG. 7 . - Furthermore, it is possible to provide two or
more processing stations 23 in succession in transport direction A, in the proximity of which then likewise the uneven areas beneath thetransport belt 21 are provided by theprojections 28 or by other support elements. - The special advantage of the
processing machine 4 consists in the fact that processing of thestones 2 is possible on theentire edge 3 in one run, i.e. with onesingle transport route 20 and without moving the stone layer from one transport route to another successive transport route. - The
processing station 24 causes post-processing or refinement of the processing by theprocessing station 23. Usingstones 2 as theprocessing elements 27 results in low operating costs. Moreover, this prevents discoloration of the surface of the processedstones 2 by foreign material. - A further special advantage consists in the fact that material that accumulates during processing of the stones is also conveyed by the
transport belt 21 and can be transported away at the output position 20.1 for example, thus ensuring clean operation of themachine 4. -
FIG. 6 shows a mask orframe element 34, which can be provided in place of the uneven areas formed by theprojections 28 beneath the transport belt in the proximity of therespective processing station 23. The frame element with the rectangular perimeter and made of a wear-resistant material, e.g. steel, forms an outer, rectangular frame structure with the two longer frame sides 34.1 and 34.2 and the two shorter frame sides 34.3 and 34.4 in addition to two strip-shaped frame stays 34.5 and 34.6, which start at a corner formed between the frame sides 34.2 and 34.3 and 34.2 and 34.4, respectively, and extend within the frame as far as the middle of the frame side 34.1. - When in use, the
frame element 34 is located in the proximity of theprocessing station 23 beneath thetransport belt 21 so that the frame sides 34.1 and 34.2 are oriented perpendicularly to transport direction A, thus forming uneven areas for tilting of thestones 2 during processing, just as the frame stays 34.5 and 34.6, which then diverge or converge in transport direction A. If theframe element 34 is used, the uneven areas formed by theprojections 28 are not applicable. Theframe element 34 is provided, e.g. by means of several screws, on the table-like element 22 of the machine frame or on the guide 22.1 and can be easily removed for quick replacement. - Preferably two
such frame elements 34 are located successively in transport direction A beneath oneprocessing station 23 or beneath two such stations, so that for oneframe element 34 the frame stays 34.5 and 34.6 converge in transport direction A, i.e. run together in a V-shape and for theother frame element 34 they diverge in transport direction A, i.e. run apart in a V-shape. - As indicated by 33, a vibrator can be provided at the
processing station 24 beneath the sliding guide 22.1. Furthermore, instead of the stones, other processing elements can be provided in themachine 4 at theprocessing station 24, e.g. abrasive devices, etc. -
FIG. 7 shows as a further possibility a procession station 24 a, which in its functions corresponds to theprocessing station 24, however with the difference that instead of the stones,processing elements 27 a are provided that are made of carbide metal or hardened steel, for example by hammering. - The invention was described above based on exemplary embodiments. It goes without saying that numerous modifications and variations are possible, without abandoning the underlying inventive idea on which the invention is based.
- It was assumed above that the
stones 2 are processed in stone layers and are moved beneath the processing stations. Of course, it is also possible to convey thestones 2 individually or as a continuous or uninterrupted stream through theprocessing stations -
