1. Operation method

1. Routine inspection before leaving the car

1.1. Before the mixer truck starts to work, first check whether there is enough clean hydraulic oil in the oil tank, hydraulic pump and motor, whether the water tank is filled with water, and whether there is enough lubricating oil in each lubricating part.

1.2. Start the car engine and run it for a while, and fill the air tank with air.

1.3. Put the joystick in the neutral position to keep the mixing drum in a stationary state.

Note: If the mixer drum and the engine are started and rotated at the same time, there may be danger and damage to the equipment.

1.4. When the engine is preheating, check the oil pump, motor, reducer and transmission shaft for abnormal noise.

1.5. After everything is normal, operate the handle to make the mixing drum rotate forward and reverse 2~3 times at low speed, check whether the hydraulic transmission system is normal, and whether the mixing drum can perform normal feeding and discharging rotation.

Note: During inspection, do not touch the rotating parts of the equipment with your hands, and be careful not to get your clothes caught in the equipment.

1.6. When the mixer truck is parked in the open field, the mixing drum should be reversed before loading, and the accumulated water (or rainwater) and sundries in the drum should be discharged to ensure the quality of the delivered concrete.

1.7. Check whether the lock handle of the discharge chute is locked.

2. Operation procedure of mixer truck

2.1. Drive the truck under the charging hopper of the mixing station, so that the inlet of the truck is aligned with the outlet of the discharging hopper of the batching station, so as to prevent the concrete from flowing out of the truck and causing waste and pollution of the truck body.

2.2. Operate the handle to make the mixing drum rotate in the feeding direction, the speed is controlled at about 10~12r/min (or adjust according to the feeding needs), then the mixing drum can be fed.

2.3. When installed to the rated capacity, manipulate the handle to adjust the engine speed to 1800r/min, so that the stirring speed of the mixing drum is 1~3r/min, and the engine speed is minimized. In order to prevent misoperation and handle serialization, the handle should be locked in the cab (Figure 5). The maximum time allowed from the start of feeding to the end of unloading is 1.5 hours or the mixing drum rotates 300 revolutions (whichever is shorter).

2.4. After the truck arrives at the delivery location, release the locking mechanism of the unloading chute, and turn the unloading chute and the extended chute to the position to be unloaded.

2.5. Before operating the handles on both sides of the rear of the vehicle, the cab operation and positioning locking plate should be released (see the right picture in Figure 5) to realize the forward and reverse operation of the rear of the mixing drum. The material is then unloaded according to the speed required by the site.

2.6. After each discharge, the feed hopper, the inside and outside of the mixing drum, and the discharge chute must be cleaned to prevent the concrete from solidifying.

3. Operation steps

3.1. With the engine idling, turn the operating handle to the "feed" or "agitation" position. See Figure 6 for maneuvering the sign.

 

 

3.1. Feeding, stirring of ready-mixed concrete and driving of concrete mixer truck: turn the operating handle to the "feeding" or "stirring" position, and after adjusting the speed of the mixing drum according to item 2.3, it must be controlled by the flexible shaft before driving. The locking handle of the machine locks the operating handle in the "feed" or "agitation" position, or the flexible shaft control handle in the cab to the locked position (see Figure 5 left).

3.2. Unlock: just unscrew the locking handle of the flexible shaft controller, or loosen the locking device of the cab to unlock.

3.3. Keep rotating during transportation to prevent the concrete from segregating.

3.4. Discharging of ready-mixed concrete: Before the mixer truck arrives at the construction site for unloading, the mixing drum should be rotated at full speed for 1-2 minutes at 12-15r/min, so that the concrete can be fully mixed and evenly mixed, and the operating handle should be turned to the "discharge" position , and the discharge chute should be locked in a certain working position. Adjust the unloading speed according to the needs of the site.

3.5. The stop of the mixing drum: turn the operating handle to the "neutral" or "stop" position.

3.6. Before feeding, turn the joystick to the "discharge" position to remove the accumulated water and dirt in the mixing tank. This operation should be completed under the condition of engine idling.

Note: Whether turning the operating handle from the "in" side to the "out" side, or from the "out" side to the "in" side, it should be slightly moved in the "neutral" or "stop" position Wait until the mixing drum stops rotating before dialing to the next operating position.

1. Adjust the speed of the mixing drum

The speed of the mixing drum is mainly controlled by the displacement of the oil pump. The larger the displacement of the oil pump, the faster the speed of the mixing drum, and vice versa. Reflected on the joystick, the greater the deflection angle from the "neutral" or "stop" position, the faster the mixing drum rotates. Note that the rotating speed of the mixer drum is low at idle speed.

On the other hand, it is related to the speed of the engine. When the output speed of the engine needs to be changed, it is necessary to operate the rear-end handle to accelerate or step on the accelerator in the cab to achieve the speed adjustment of the engine.

 

2. Mixing concrete with a mixer truck

In addition to transporting pre-mixed concrete, the mixer truck can also directly use the mixer truck to mix concrete. The operation steps are as follows:

5.1. Inject 2/3 of the total water consumption;

5.2. Put 1/2 of the coarse aggregate, 1/2 of the sand and all the cement into the mixing drum in turn;

5.1. Feed the remaining 1/2 of the sand;

5.2. Finally, send the remaining 1/2 coarse aggregate and 1/3 water into it;

5.3. Mixing drum speed and mixing time:

The rotating speed of the mixing drum during feeding: 6～10r/min;

The rotating speed of the mixing drum during stirring: 6～10r/min;

Stirring time: 3～4min;

Transport speed: 3 ~ 4r/min.

5.4. The agitation and discharge after the agitation is completed shall be operated according to the aforementioned method of ready-mixed concrete.

5.5. Note:

1. When mixing concrete, do not only feed cement;

2. The above method is only an example. Since the specific mixing method varies with the type of concrete, please determine the most suitable method and data according to the results of trial mixing.

3. In arid areas, in order to ensure the quality of concrete when mixing concrete is required for long-distance transportation, the water is refilled after delivery to the destination, so the water tank of the mixer truck should be filled with water frequently for urgent needs.

3. Operation of the water system

6.1. Using air pressure water tank for water supply:

a. When adding water, close the air source switch valve 4 of the chassis first, and open the water tank exhaust switch valve 3 at the same time; close the valve 2, open the valve 1, and add water to the water tank from the water inlet. After the water tank is filled with water, close valve 1 and valve 3. See Figure 7 and Figure 8.

b. Pressurized water supply: Open the chassis air supply switch valve 4, the pressure air of the air storage tank enters the water tank through decompression, and the pressure water tank can work; see Figure 8.

c. Flushing: Open valve 2 to open the back water channel as shown in Figure 7, and flush according to construction requirements or add water to the mixing drum. When washing other parts, you can directly use the water gun at the rear of the car to operate.

6.2. Water supply by water pump (optional):

a. When the water tank is under normal pressure, directly add water to the water tank. When flushing is required, turn on the switch of the water pump first, and then turn on the corresponding valve switch after the water pump is working, and then the corresponding part of the mixer truck can be flushed.

b. After flushing, first turn off the water pump control switch, turn off the motor, and then close the flush valve.

 

Note: Regardless of any water supply method, when supplying water to the mixing tank, do not turn off the car engine to keep the gas tank charged, or to charge the battery. The chassis air supply switch valve 4 must be closed when driving.

 

 

1. Emergency drive:

When the hydraulic pump or transmission shaft of the mixer truck fails and cannot drive the mixing drum to rotate, it can be driven according to the following emergency driving steps to discharge the concrete in the mixing drum (Figure 9):

a. Prepare the emergency drive hose (ie emergency hose); turn off the faulty car, remove the high-pressure oil pipe joint on the hydraulic motor; turn off the rescue vehicle (drive car), remove the high-pressure oil pipe joint of its oil pump, and use The emergency oil pipe is connected with the corresponding joint of the hydraulic motor on the faulty vehicle.

b. Connect the oil return pipeline of the faulty vehicle to the oil return interface of the rescue vehicle;

c. Start the rescue vehicle, turn its joystick to the discharge position, and the concrete in the faulty vehicle will be discharged;

d. After the emergency drive is completed, remove the rescue hose and restore the two vehicles to their original state.

 

 

If the above method is difficult to implement, the following method can be used to discharge the concrete immediately.

Put a wooden wedge between the roller and the raceway to control the rotation of the mixing drum, and be sure to pay attention to safety.

Turn off the engine, loosen a high-pressure oil pipe of the hydraulic motor, the mixing drum can rotate freely, control the maintenance hole of the mixing drum to the lower part, and then open the maintenance hole to clear the concrete in the drum. At this time, you must pay attention to safety. After the concrete is discharged, restore the mixer to the original state.
