Abstract

A road paver includes: a head; a body including a front end and a tail end; a feeding device, disposed in the front end to convey polyurethane concrete, and the feeding device including a stirring device; a stone paving device, disposed on the tail end to spread crushed stone over a road, and the stone paving device including a stone feed bin carrying the crushed stone; and a concrete paving device, disposed between the feeding device and the stone paving device and connected to the stirring device, and used to spread the polyurethane concrete across the road.

Claims (38)

1 . A road paver, comprising:

a head;

a body comprising a front end and a tail end;

a feeding device, disposed in the front end to convey polyurethane concrete, and the feeding device comprising a stirring device;

a stone paving device, disposed on the tail end to spread crushed stone over a road, and the stone paving device comprising a stone feed bin carrying the crushed stone; and

a concrete paving device, disposed between the feeding device and the stone paving device and connected to the stirring device, and used to spread the polyurethane concrete across the road;

wherein:

the feeding device further comprises:

a power system disposed on one side of the head of the road paver to power the feeding device;

a transmission system disposed on one side of the stirring device, and being driven by the power system to convey aggregates of the polyurethane concrete through a convey belt;

a collecting system, being connected to the stirring device and the transmission system and guiding the aggregates from the convey belt of the transmission system to the stirring device; and

the collecting system comprises a first open end and a second open end; the first open end is connected to the transmission system and has a greater width than the convey belt of the transmission system; and the second end is connected to the stirring device and has a smaller width than the stirring device;

the concrete paving device comprises:

a feed hopper, disposed below the stirring device to receive the polyurethane concrete from the stirring device;

a concrete feed bin connected to the feed hopper to hold the polyurethane concrete; and

an unloading hopper disposed below the concrete feed bin; and

when in operation, the polyurethane concrete is laid down on the road via the unloading hopper; the unloading hopper comprises a first side close to the feed hopper and a second side close to the stone paving device; a distance between the first side and the road is less than a distance between the second side and the road.

2 . The road paver of claim 1 , wherein the stirring device comprises:

a housing, connected to the feeding device and used to receive the polyurethane concrete from the feeding device;

a rotating member, disposed in the housing;

at least two helical blades, used to stir and transport the polyurethane concrete; and

a stirring member, disposed between the at least two helical blades to stir the polyurethane concrete; and

the at least two helical blades and the stirring member are connected to the rotating member.

3 . The road paver of claim 1 , wherein the concrete paving device further comprises:

a screed, disposed on a rear end of the concrete paving device to flatten the polyurethane concrete; and

a vibrator, disposed in front of the screed to compact the polyurethane concrete.

4 . The road paver of claim 1 , wherein the concrete paving device further comprises a screw conveyor disposed in the concrete feed bin to spread the polyurethane concrete across the road.

5 . The road paver of claim 1 , wherein the concrete paving device further comprises a road grader used to maintain a stable forward movement of the stone paving device.

6 . The road paver of claim 1 , wherein the stone paving device further comprises:

a running gear, disposed at a bottom portion of the stone paving device to carry the stone paving device to move; and

a speed sensor, disposed on the running gear to measure and adjust an operating speed of the running gear.

7 . The road paver of claim 1 , wherein the stone paving device further comprises:

a stone conveyor, disposed in the stone feed bin to drive small rocks to move;

a paving roller, disposed below the stone conveyor to spread the crushed stone into the polyurethane concrete; and

a driving device, disposed on a frame of the stone paving device and connected to the paving roller to drive the rotation of the paving roller.

8 . The road paver of claim 1 , wherein the feeding device further comprises:

a first measuring member, disposed between the power system and the transmission system to hold the aggregates; and the aggregates are transported into the stirring device through the transmission system; and

a second measuring member, disposed between the first measuring member and the power system and comprising at least two measuring boxes used to hold polyurethane; and a certain amount of polyurethane is poured into the stirring device under control of the at least two measuring boxes.
