  • the dry aggregates as well as the liquid bitumens which similarly have been heated are discharged into a discharge mechanism or hopper assembly disposed on the mobile frame. whereat bituminous concrete is formed.
  • This bituminous concrete is applied to an underlying road surface to provide a covering commonly termed macadam, blacktop, or asphalt, by means of a spreader mechanism which, in the preferred inventive embodiment, constitutes a heating chamber, a plurality of spreading auger conveyors, a vibrator, and a roller compactor.
  • the instant invention constitutes a mobile bituminous concrete plant which can be sent directly to a job site to mix and apply the bituminous concrete.
  • Bituminous concrete as this technical term is utilized herein, relates to a resilient road surfacing material commonly designated macadam, blacktop,-or asphalt, as distinguished from rigid Portland cement, concrete road surfaces having a Portland cement binder.
  • bituminous concrete is then loaded on the back of a pick-up truck or other similar vehicle and then send a crew consisting of a number of men out to the road location whereat the repair is desired.
  • the bituminous concrete is then physically shoveled into the hole or crack in the roadway to form a repair, the bituminous concrete subsequently being manually tamped into place to complete the repair.
  • a pre-mixed bituminous concrete batch that is taken out to the repair job may be of the same high quality and/or consistency as bituminous concrete actually mixed at the job site.
  • Still another objective of the instant invention is the provision of a novel improved bituminous concrete mixing and applying apparatus by which quality repair of roadways can be achieved at low cost.

  • the amount of dry aggregates vis-a-vis the liquid bitumen is carefully controlled by means of the metering mechanism associated with the hopper and by means of a bitumen metering device. In this fashion, bituminous concrete is provided having controlled consistency and quality.
  • the bituminous concrete i.e., the mixture of the aggregates and the bitumen, is then fed into a spreader mechanism preferably carried behind the mobile frame by which the bituminous concrete is applied to the surface of an underlying roadway.
  • the spreader mechanism constitutes a forwardly disposed heating chamber so as to heat the underlying road surface thereby assuring good adhesion for the bituminous concrete.
  • a plurality of auger conveyors are also provided for evenly distributing the bituminous concrete over the underlying and heated surface.
  • the distributed bituminous concrete is then settled by means of a vibrating mechanism and finally is compacted by a roller rearwardly disposed on the spreading mechanism.
  • the combination bituminous concrete mixing and spreading apparatus generally described above separately stores all the ingredients of the bituminous concrete so that the problems associated with premature hardening of a pre-mixed batch are entirely eliminated.

  • the novel invention has been seen to comprise a selfcontained mixing apparatus which is disposed upon an elongated mobile frame such as a truck body. Separate storage compartments are disposed on the frame for separately storing the aggregates and the liquid bitumen. A conveyor means is provided for conveying the aggregates from the various storage compartments therefor forwardly to the front end of the mobile frame,
  • the heater and drying means incorporates an agitator means or vanes serving to move the aggregates heated therein from the front of the frame to the' rear thereof, whereat the heated agregates are discharged into a discharge means disposed at the rear of the frame.
  • the heated aggregates are now dropped downwardly into a mixing means into which the liquid bitumen is also dispensed, the amount of ingredients dispensed into the mixing means being carefully controlled and metered so as to form bituminous concrete.
  • this bituminous concrete is then spread and applied to the underlying roadway by means of a separate, though associated, apparatus which serves to first heat the underlying roadway, spread the bituminous concrete, settle the bituminous concrete, and compact same.
  • the entire apparatus as abovestated, is mobile and can readily be transported to the scene or site of a repair job, and operation of the apparatus can readily be effected by a minimum crew, thus resolving many problems that have faced the prior art.
  • a self-contained bituminous concrete mixing apparatus comprising, in combination:
  • conveyormeans disposed on said frame adjacent said aggregate storage compartment for transporting aggregates from said compartment into said one end of said hollow drum;
  • receiving means disposed on said frame adjacent said other end of said hollow drum for receiving the heated and dried aggregates from said hollow drum and for discharging same; mixing means disposed on said frame beneath said receiving means into which is discharged the heated and dried aggregates;
  • said mixing means effecting a mixing of the aggregates with the liquid bitumen to therein form bituminou's concrete.
  • An apparatus as defined in claim 4 further including a spreader means for spreading and compacting the bituminous concrete on a road surface.
  • said storage compartments include a plurality of separate chambers for separately storing aggregates disposed substantially along the length of the frame in a location to either side of and substantially immediately below said hollow drum defining said heater means, said conveyor means including an elongated substantially horizontal section disposed immediately below said separate chambers for feeding the aggregates therein in a direction toward the front of said mobile frame, and controllable gate means in association with said horizontal section of said conveyor to meter the amount of aggregates removed from each of said separate chambers.
  • said conveyor means further includes a vertical section defined by a bucket conveyor for carrying aggregates discharged by said horizontal section upwardly and into said hollow drum.
  • said burner associated with said hollow drum defining said heater means is a forced air burner effecting a flow of heated air through said hollow drum and about the aggregates therein.
  • An apparatus as defined in claim 8 further including air channel means communicating between said hollow drumand each of said storage compartments for storing the aggregates for effecting flow of air from said drum into said storage compartments whereby the aggregates within said storage compartments are further dried and whereby dust within said storage compartments is settled.
  • said receiving means includes a hopper for receiving the heated aggregates from said drum, and a first dispensing means for controlling the amount of aggregates discharged from said hopper into said mixing means, wherein a second dispensing means is provided for controlling the amount of liquid bitumen discharged from said storage compartment therefor into said mixing means, and wherein means are provided to synchronize said first and second dispensing means.
  • said first dispensing means comprises a conveyor disposed at the bottom of said hopper for carrying aggregates therein towards a discharge point whereat metering gates are provided, the speed of said conveyor, the closure of said gates, and the amount of liquid bitumen discharged by said second dispensing means being correlated.
  • said synchronizing means includes means to sense the weight of the aggregates within said hopper to control operation of said rotary conveyor and said second dispensing means.
  • a mobile apparatus for applying bituminous concrete to an underlying road surface comprising, in combination:
  • heat chamber means disposed forwardly of said apparatus for heating the underlying road surface
  • hopper means disposed over and in feeding relation to said lateral conveyor for receiving bituminous concrete from some external source
  • said lateral conveyor means comprises two elongated augers disposed one above the other, one of said augers conveying the bituminous'concrete outwardly toward either side of the apparatus toward the center thereof.
  • said compacting means comprises a roller, said roller supporting said apparatus on the underlying surface.
