SOIL COIVIPACTING MACHINE Frederick J. Converse, San Marino, Calif., assignor, by mesne assignments, to the United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy Filed Sept. 9, 1953, Ser. No. 379,317
1 Claim. (Cl. 94-48) This invention relates to a machine for compacting soil and the like, and more generally to a machine for impressing upon a structure rhythmic forces of relatively large magnitude and low frequency.
Soil compaction machines are used in the construction of roads, airport runways, earth-filled dams, and the like, to increase the structural bearing capacity of the soil. The present machine may be used for other purposes, as in the study of structural vibrations.
In comparison with standard soil compaction equipment now in general use, this machine accomplishes its purpose, not by virtue of its dead weight alone, but rather by the correct utilization of dynamic forces of controllable frequency and magnitude. In particular, the machine is most effective as a soil compaction device when operated at the resonant frequency of the composite system consisting of the vibrator and the soil mass on Which it rests. The resonant frequency is primarily a function of the type of soil being treated, although it is to some extent influenced by the size, shape, and weight of the vibrator, and by the magnitude of the dynamic forces produced by the vibrator. The resonant, or optimum, frequency of vibration for soil compaction may be identified as that frequency at which maximum vertical displacement of the vibrator occurs under the influence of a constant dynamic force.
An object of the invention is to provide an improved machine for impressing uponsoil or other structure a series of resonant vibrations. I
Other objects and many of the attendant advantages of this invention will be readily appreciated as the same becomes better understood by reference to the following description.
Fig. l is a plan view of a device embodying theinvention, with the upper portion cut away on a line corresponding generally to line 1-1 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on the line 22 of Fig. 1; and
Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic anism for the vibrator.
In the form of the invention shown by way of example in the drawing, the machine comprises a base in the form of a sled orv stone-boat having upwardly inclined sides 10, 11 and ends 12, 13, with a bottom 14. All these elements may be formed integral with each other, as shown. Mounted on bottom 14 are a plurality of plates 16, of cast iron or other heavy material, secured together in any suitable way and forming the lower dead weight of the machine. Mounted on and secured to the plates 16 is a rigid box frame comprising sides 18, 19 and ends 20, 21. Secured as by welding to the upper edges of sides 18, 19 are beams 24, 25, to which are secured, by bolts 26, a plurality of plates 28, similar to plates 16 and forming the upper dead weight of the machine. Plates 28 may be secured together by means such as bolts 29.
In cross plates 30, 31, extending between side members 18, 19, are mounted bearings 32', 33 in which are view of the driving mechjournaled two longitudinal shafts 36, 37, preferably formed of rectangular cross section at their midsection and having secured thereto a plurality of eccentric weights 40, 41. The shafts are interconnected by two intermeshing similar spur gears 42, 43 keyed to the respective shafts and causing them to rotate at the same speed, though in opposite directions.
- A plurality of hydraulic gear motors 44, 45, 46, 47 are mounted in the end members 20, 21, and are connected to the opposite ends of shafts 36, 37 by couplings indicated at 48. Motors 44 and 46 are connected to rotate in the same direction, say counterclockwise, so as to turn shaft 36 in a counter-clockwise direction, as shown in Fig. 2. Motors and 47 are connected to rotate in the same direction, with respect to each other, but turn their associated shaft 37 in a clockwise direction. While the power required to operate the shafts 36 and 37 may be supplied by any suitable speed-controlled power source such as an internal combustion engine mounted on the sled itself, a power takeoff from the pulling tractor, or other suitable mechanical or electrical drives, it has been found that the plurality of fluid motors specified above furnish the greatest power in the least space with the maximum and simplest speed or frequency control. Regardless of slight differences in the capacity of the various motors, shafts 36 and 37 are constrained to rotate in opposite directions and at the same, synchronous speed due to the action of the similar spur gears 42, 43. Accurate speed control is effected by means of controlling the speed of the prime mover or engine 50 in steps with a fine control aiforded by the simple operation of flow control valve 78. Thus, with valve 78 closed, as the engine 50 is speeded up, say 100 rpm, pumps 52 are speeded up and the volume of displacement fluid moved by the pumps is increased. Since the speed of the hydraulic motors 45, 46, 47, and 48 is a function of the volume of displaced fluid delivered by the pumps, the motors speed up as do the shafts 36 and 37 to which they are attached. If the frequency of oscillation so produced is now slightly higher than that desired, by opening valve 78, a portion of the increased volume of fluid is diverted into the low pressure reservoir tank 72' and the hydraulic motors are slowed down sutliciently to produce the desired frequency of oscillation.
The apparatus for furnishing pressure fluid to motors 44, 45, 46, 47 is indicated in Fig. 3, and is preferably mounted on a tractor which may be used to draw the compacting machine over the soil, or on a trailer drawn by such tractor. The apparatus comprises an engine 50 which is connected to two hydraulic pumps 52 through a gear box 54. The pressure fluid is conducted from pumps 52 through conduits 56, 57 and flexible branch conduits 60, 61, 62, 63 to motors 44, 45, 46, 47. The exhaust fluid from the motors is returned through flexible branch exhaust conduits 66, 67, 68, 69 and conduit 70 to a reservoir 72, whence it is returned through conduits 74, 75 to the pumps 52. The arrows in Figs. 1 and 3 indicate the direction of fluid flow through the various conduits with which they are shown. Thus, in Fig. 1, the small arrows shown on motor 44, for example, indicate the inlet of fluid from conduit 60 and the exhaust or outlet fluid flow from the motor to the conduit 66. In Fig. 3, the use of the fluid flow indicating arrows is obvious.
The reservoir 72 may include an air dome to minimize fluctuations of pressure in the fluid, but its chief purpose is to provide storage capacity for the fluid and thereby prevent overheating. Inflow of fluid thereto from conduit 57 is controlled by a flow control valve 78 in a connecting conduit 80, and return flow to the conduit 57 is controlled by a relief valve 82 in a conduit 84.
The arrangement of the shafts 36, 37 with their at tached eccentric weights is such that the centrifugal forces 7 produced, are additive in the vertical direction and mutually cancel in all other directions. The magnitude of these dynamic forces is directly proportional to the mass; of the eccentric: weights and to the square of the frequency.- of rotation. In other Words, as shafts 36 and; 37, with their eccentric weights 40: and 41, are rotated, the soil compacting machine vibrates up. and down at a frequency of oscillation dependent, of'course, upon the speed of rotation of shafts. 36 and 37.
In operating the vibrator unit. as a compaction device for the densification of soils, the frequency of oscillation is precisely adjusted: until the. resonant frequency of the vibrator-soil mass system is attained. This frequency should: be maintained at all times during the compaction operation as the vibrator is pulled over the ground surface by a tractor or other prime mover.
In determining the resonant: frequency of'the system, the speed of shafts 36, 3'7 is'varied until the maximum peak-to-peak displacement occurs. Such maximum may be determined in various ways:
(a) By means of a vibration pickup attached to the vibrator and producing electrical impulses which record the displacements on an oscilloscope or in ink on a moving paper.
(b) By observation. An operator in the field soon learns to determine the maximum vibration by watching the vibrator as he changes speed.
(c) A black horizontal line is drawn on a white surface and attached to the vibrator. The line appears to be a gray band when vibrated. When the band appears to have maximum width, the machine is in resonance.
The value of the frequency may be determined by observation of the graph from the. pickup mentioned in (a) above, or by a tachometer or revolution counter. A field method is to tow the vibrator at a constant known speed and count the ripples formed in the surface of the soil in a given distance.
Obviously many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in the light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that within the scope of the appended claim the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.
