Definitions

  • This invention relates to improvements in or relating to impact compaction of layers of soils and gravels.
  • the invention relates in particular to an improved impact roller and to an improved method of impact compaction by employing an impact roller.
  • An impact roller is a roller having a non-circular crosssectional profile.
  • rotation of the non-circular cross-sectional profile causes the centre of'gravity of the roller to rise and fall continuously, thereby delivering impact to the underlying material upon descent ofthe centre of gravity.
  • the impact delivered depends on a number of factors, one important factor being the lift of the centre of gravity of the roller, i.e the vertical distance of travel of the centre of gravity between low and high positions.
  • impact rollers as presently known to it, require a reasonably dense top layer of soil or gravel on which to operate.
  • conventional equipment has to be employed from time to time to restore the top layer. This is also uneconomical as it involves either the tran sporation of conventional equipment from wherever it had been in use or to have the equipment standing idly by while impact rolling is in progress.
  • impact rollers often have to cross structures such as culverts, bridges, buried sewerage pipes, water pipes and the like, which could easily be damaged or displaced by impact. Avoidance of such structures or services results in a waste of time, and nonuniform compaction standards because of the diffculty in manoeuvering the roller close to the structure.
  • an impact roller in which its cross-sectional profile is deformable to permit variation of the lift of the centre of grav ity of the roller.
  • a method of compacting layers of soils and gravels by means of an impact roller which includes varying the impact delivered by the roller by deforming its cross sectional profile to vary the lift of the centre of gravity of the roller.
  • the impact roller may conveniently have a plurality of adjustable curved lobes forming the periphery of the roller. Each lobe may be pivotally mounted on the roller and may extend on either side of the pivot.
  • Releasable locking means may be provided for locking each lobe in any desired position on the roller.
  • the pivots of the lobes, and the locking means may be so arranged that the lobes are displaced and are reset in new positions by the rotation of the roller when the locking means is released.
  • the locking means may include a spring biassed clip' in arrangement.
  • the clip-in arrangement may include a releasable catch adapted to engage any one of a plurality of notches, each notch effecting a particular lobe setting.
  • the locking means may be operable by fluid pressure.
  • the curved lobes may be circular arcs and may be adjustable between one extreme position in which the cross-sectional profile of the roller is circular and no impact is delivered. i.e., the lift of the centre of gravity is zero, and another extreme position in. which maxi mum impact is-delivered, i.e., the lift of the centre of gravity is a maximum.
  • the depth and degree of compaction required in an underlying layer of soil or gravel is selected by selecting an appropriate lift for the centre of gravity of the roller.
  • the cross-sectional profile of the 'roller is varied.
  • the lobes are set so that the cross-sectional profile 'ofthe roller is only slightly non-circular and the lift is small.
  • the lobes are set so that the cross-sectional profile of the roller is more non-circular to obtain a greater lift.
  • the surface to be compacted is too soft, rough or uneven
  • the surface may be prepared by first making a few passes with the roller so adjusted as to produce no lift, i.e., the roller has a circular cross-section.
  • the roller profile is adjusted to have a lift for the desired impact compaction.
  • the roller could be adjusted to have a circular cross-section immediately prior to crossing such a structure. This would facilitate compaction to within close proximity to such structures.
  • the roller may be so arranged that its profile can be adjusted during operation without the necessity of having to stop the roller. This arrangement will permit an operator during operation-of the roller to adjust the profile of the roller either to deliver or not to deliver impact.
  • the roller profile While the roller is hauled at speeds below the desired speed, i.e., during acceleration and deceleration, the roller profile may be adjusted to have a circular crosssection. When the desired operating speed has been reached, the roller profile may be restored to the original profile in which impact is delivered.
  • the roller may be self-propelled by imparting traction via the roller itself.
  • An advantage of this arrangement is that it eliminates the drag caused between a hauled roller and the underlying soil by the soil tending to bank up in front of the roller when the roller is hauled.
  • the roller may be driven by means of a motor mounted on the roller itself or on a trailing carriage.
  • FIG. 1 shows a side view of one embodiment of an impact roller having a deformable cross-sectional profile, the profile being adjusted to a circular shape;
  • FIG. 2 shows the roller of FIG. 1 with its profile adjusted to a non-circular shape
  • FIG. 3 shows a fragmentary view, partly in section, of
  • FIG. 4 shows a side view of another embodiment of an impact roller similar to the roller shown in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 5 shows a side view of another embodiment of an impact roller having a deformable cross-sectional profile, the view being partly fragmentary and showing a profile of a circular shape;
  • FIG. 6 shows a sectional plan view on line V-V of FIG. 5;
  • FIG. 7 shows the roller of FIG. 5 with its profile deformed to a non-circular shape
  • FIG. 8 shows a fragmentary side view of the roller shown in FIG. 5 but with slightly modified pivotal lobes
  • FIG. 9 shows a section on line IX IX of FIG. 8.
  • reference numeral 10 indicates generally an impact roller having a core structure 12. On the core structure are mounted four curved lobes 14 whose external surfaces form the peripheral surface of the roller.
  • Each lobe 14 is pivotally mounted on the core structure at 16 and has the curvature ofa circular arc.
  • Each lobe 14 has a part 14.1 on one side ofthe pivot 16 and a part 14.2 on the other side of the pivot.
  • the ends of each lobe are shaped to abut the ends of adjacent lobes when the lobes are adjusted to form a circular profile as shown in FIG. 1. In this geometry the centre of gravity 17 of the roller has no lift.
  • Releasable locking means in the form of a hydraulic cylinder 13 and ram are provided for maintaining each lobe 14 in a locked position on the core structure 12.
  • Each cylinder 13 is pivotally mounted on the core structure at 13.1 and each ram is pivotally attached to the lobe part 14.1 at 15.1.
  • the locking means may be a spring-biassed clip-in arrangement (not shown).
  • Each hydraulic cylinder 13 and ram 15 in addition to hydraulically locking each lobe l 4 in a desired position, also pivots the lobe about its pivot 16 to vary the crosssectional profile of the roller.
  • the rams 15 may be operated to pivot the lobes 14 while the roller 10 is in motion, ie. the roller profile may be adjusted while the roller is in operation.
  • the drawing shows four hydraulic cylinders 13 and rams 15, i.e.. one for each lobe 14 but if desired, only one or two such rams and'cylinders may be provided for operating all the lobes 14 simultaneously.
  • the lobes 14 are interconnected by a lever 4 arrangement or a cam arrangement to permit operation by the rams provided.
  • FIG. 2 shows the lobes 14 adjusted to form a noncircular roller profile.
  • the centre of gravity of the roller has a lift 19, i.e., R-r, and delivers impact to an underlying surface when travelling in the direction of arrow 18 to rotate in the direction ofarrow 20.
  • the profile of the roller is adjusted from that shown in FIG. 1 to that shown in FIG. 2 and vice versa by operating the rams l5, i.e., by varying the fluid pressure inthe cylinders 13, to pivot the lobes 14 about their pivots 16.
  • the rams 15 are hydraulically locked to maintain the lobes 14 in their new positions.
  • the locking means i.e., hydraulic rams 15 are released while the roller continues to rotate in the direction of arrow 20.
  • the lobe part 14.1 rolling over the underlying surface causes the lobe 14 to pivot about the pivot 16.
  • the rams 15 are hydraulically locked to maintain the lobes 14 in their new positions.
  • springs may be provided to bias the portions 14.1 of the lobes 14 towards the centre of gravity 17. Upon release of the locking means, the lobe portions 14.1 are pulled towards the centre of gravity 17 by the springs.
  • the roller can therefore be adjusted from a non-circular profile to a circular profile during operation of the roller.
  • the locking means i.e., hydraulic rams 15 are released while the roller continues to rotate in the direction of arrow 20.
  • the lobe part 14.2 rolling over the underlying surface causes the lobe 14 to pivot about the pivot 16.
  • the hydraulic rams 15 are hydraulically locked to lock the lobes 14 in position as soon as their new positions are reached.
  • the centre of gravity 17 In the position shown in FIG. 2, i.e., when the profile is non-circular, the centre of gravity 17 has a lift R-r and the roller delivers impact when travelling over a surface.
  • FIG. 3 there is shown diagrammatically an alternative arrangement 22 for deforming the crosssectional profile of the roller 10 shown in FIG. 1.
  • the arrangement 22 permits the profile to be deformed mechanically and comprises a screw-threaded shank 24 pivotally connected at 26 to the part 14.1'of each lobe 14.
  • a screw-threaded gear 28 co-operates with the shank 24 and is axially restrained between guides 30 and 32.
  • the guides 30 and 32 are interconnected with each other and are pivotally mounted at 34 on the roller core 12.
  • a drive gear 36 which is driven electrically. hydraulically or mechanically is provided to drive the gear 28. When the gear 28 is rotated, the shank 24 is axially displaced, whereby each lobe 14 is pivoted about its pivot 16.
  • the roller 10 has an axle 38 which may be a driven axle fast with the roller core 12 so that traction is trans mitted via the roller itself, in other words, the roller is self-propelled in this arrangement. This may for instance be effected by co-ordinated and cyclic displacement of the hydraulic rams 15. Alternatively, the roller may have a drawbar similar to the drawbar 44 shown in FIG. 5.
  • the locking means i.e., hydraulic cylinders 13 and rams 15, may be arranged to permit a plurality of lobe settings between a circular profile as shown in FIG. I when no impact is delivered and a non-circular profile as shown in FIG. 2 when maximum impact is delivered.
  • the particular lobe setting is selected to produce a particular lift for the centre of gravity for achieving a particular depth and degree of compaction in an underlying layer of soil or gravel.
  • FIG. 4 shows an alternative embodiment 37 of an impact roller basically the same as the embodiment of FIG. I except that the lobes 39 have a flatter curve, i.e., a larger radius than the lobes 14 of embodiment 10.
  • the centre of curvature of each lobe 39 in roller 37 never coincides with the centre of gravity 17 of the roller, whereas in the roller 10 when adjusted to the profile shown in FIG. 1, the centre of curvature of each lobe 14 coincides with the centre of gravity 17 of the roller.
  • the cross-sectional profile of the roller 37 is deformed in exactly the same manner as the crosssectional profile of roller 10, i.e., by employing rams which are pivotally attached to the lobes at 15.1 and to the roller core 12 at 13.1.
  • roller 37 cannot be adjusted to a fully circular shape like the cross'sectional profile of roller 10.
  • the advantage of roller 37 over roller 10 is that'when roller 37 is adjusted to have a non-circular profile similar to the profile of roller 10 shown in FIG. 2, the projecting regions on the lobes 39 of roller 37 dig into the underlying soil to a lesser extent than the corresponding regions 14.2 of the lobes 14 of roller 10 when operating in noncohesive soils.
  • the pivots 16 of the lobes 14 and 39 may be displaceable towards or away from the centre of gravity 17.
  • the pivots 16 may be displaceable by hydraulic rams similar to the rams 15.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 there is shown another embodiment of an impact roller having a deformable cross-sectional profile.
  • the roller 40 comprises an axle 42 to which is attached a drawbar 44 via bearings 46.
  • a wheel 48 such as a rim of motor vehicle wheel.
  • a bearing 50 to facilitate rotation of the wheel about the axle.
  • annular elastic bag 52 such as a pneumatic tyre of a motor vehicle wheel.
  • An annular chamber 54 is defined between the wheel 48 and the bag 52.
  • the gas pressure in the chamber 54 can be varied, even when the roller 40 is in operation.
  • the means for varying the gas pressure is not shown, but it may include a gas reservoir, a compressor for supplying compressed gas such as air to the reservoir, pneumatic lines between the chamber 54 and the reservoir, and a valve arrangement in the pneumatic lines to control gas flow in the lines.
  • a pressure gauge (not shown) is also provided to indicate the gas pressure in the chamber 54.
  • the elastic bag 52 and wheel 48 are enclosed in a cage comprising two cheek plates 56 and a plurality of lobes 58 pivotally mounted on pivot pins 60 between the cheek plates 56.
  • the external periphery of the annular bag 52 abuts the inwardly disposed surfaces of the lobes 58.
  • a central aperture 62 is provided in each cheek plate 56 so that the cheek plates 56 fit with clearance around the axle 42 to permit relative radial movement between the axle and the cheek plates. It will be seen from FIGS. 5 and 6 that the lobes 58 form the periphery of the roller 40.
  • the cross-sectional profile of the roller is deformed during travel of the roller over a surface since the lobes 58 pivot about the pivot pins 60 and press into the periphery of the bag 52 as shown in FIG. 7.
  • the degree of deformation is inversely proportional to the gas pressure in the bag 52, Le, the higher the pressure the less deformation is permitted and vice versa.
  • the roller is shown as having a circular cross-sectional profile.
  • the gas pressure in the chamber 54 is high so that the pneumatic bag 52 is pressed tightly against the lobes 58, thus permitting no or a negligible deformation of the bag 52 and consequently little or a negligible piv otting of the lobes 58 about the pivot pins 60.
  • the centre of gravity 64 of the roller has a zero or a negligible lift in this condition so that no impact or a negligible impact is delivered to the underlying surface 66.
  • the lobes 58 shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 are of circular arcuate shape, but the lobes may have flat surfaces, for example by being flat panels.
  • the roller 40 may be selfpropelled by controlled and synchronised actuation about the axle 42.
  • the roller 40 is shown with maximum deformation of its cross-sectional profile.
  • the gas pressure in the chamber 54 is low so that during travel of the roller over the surface 66, the lobes 58 are permitted to deform the bag 52 as shown and to pivot about the pivot pins 60.
  • the centre of gravity 64 in this condition has a lift R-r so that impact is delivered to the underlying surface 66 during travel of the roller over the surface.
  • FIGS. 8 and 9 there are shown fragmentary side and sectional views of a roller 40.l similar to the views of roller 40 shown in FIGS. 5 and 6.
  • the parts shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 are identical to the parts shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 except that the construction of the lobes 58.1 in FIGS. 8 and 9 is-different from the construction of the lobes 58 in-FIGS. Sand 6.
  • the lobe 58.1 has an inwardly projecting formation 58.2 which is slightly smaller in width than the lobe 581.
  • the overall thickness of the lobe 58.1 including the formation 58.2 is larger than the thickness of the lobe parts 58.3 and 58.4.
  • the object of the formation 58.2 is to effect deformation of the bag 52 opposite the pivot 60.
  • Such deformation is advantageous in providing resilience between the drawbar 44 and the axle 42 and such resilience is advantageous in dampering relative horizontal movement between the drawbar 44 and the axle 42.
  • Relative horizontal movement between the drawbar and the axle is caused by the inertia of the roller when the roller profile is deformed so that the centre of gravity has a lift R-r as in FIG. 7.
  • Such relative horizontal movement is permitted by the apertures 62 in the I cheek plates 56.
  • pivots 60 of the lobes 58 and 58.1 of FIGS. and 8 are shown symmetrically positioned on the lobes, but if desired, the pivots may be asymmetrical.
  • a particular gas pressure in the chamber 54 is selected.
  • One advantage of an impact roller in accordance with the invention is that a specified density in a material can be achieved economically by selecting an appropriate lift for the centre of gravity.
  • the energy delivered per blow during rotation of the roller is dependent on the lift. The greater the energy, the greater the depth to which compaction will be effective.
  • a further advantage is that in too soft, rough and uneven terrain the roller profile can be set circular for preparing the surface initially and thereafter the roller profile is set non-circular for impact compaction.
  • a still further advantage of an impact roller according to the invention is that its profile can be adjusted to a circular shape to facilitate its movement over or near vulnerable structures while in operation.
  • An impact roller which includes a core structure; a plurality of axially extending lobes forming the periphery of the rollers and defining its cross-sectional profile, the lobes being circumferentially spaced about the core structure and each lobe subtending a minimum angle of approximately between radii and having a lifting surface and a tamping surface and being mounted to pivot on the core structure about an axis parallel to the roller rotational axis, the said pivotal axis being disposed between the lifting and tamping surfaces, and the disposition of each lobe being adjustable about its pivotal axis relative to the core structure such that the distance of the lifting surface from the rotational axis of the roller is greater than the distance of the tamping surface from'the rotational axis of the roller thereby effecting the cyclic lifting of the centre of gravity of the roller during rotation of the roller over a surface; and adjusting means interconnecting the core structure and the lobes for adjusting the pivotal dispositions of the core
