Abstract
The present disclosure refers to the development of a hot mix asphalt plant mounted on a single fixed chassis with the correct dimensions for transport in a single shipping container. On this tubular structure chassis, two individual dosing silos fixed to the chassis and supported on metering conveyor, a rotary dryer, a two-axle pug mill mixer, an enclosed burner, a fuel pipe, bituminous binder tubing, exhaust pipe, bag filter, drag lift and a control cabin are disposed.
Claims1
A system for producing hot mix asphalt, comprising:
- a hot mix asphalt plant, including:
- a chassis (1) having a tubular structure, wherein the chassis (1) is a single fixed chassis;
- a first individual dosing silo (2) and a second individual dosing silo (3), wherein the first and second individual dosing silos (2, 3) are supported on metering conveyor (4), wherein the first and second individual dosing silos (2, 3) are fixed to the chassis, and wherein the first and second individual dosing silos (2, 3) are configured to supply one or more aggregates;
- a rotary dryer (5) configured to dry the one or more aggregates, the rotary dryer (5) having a burner (6) supplied by a fuel pipe, the burner being connected to an exhaust pipe (9) having a bag filter (7);
- a two-axle plug mill mixer connected to a bituminous binder tubing to inject a bitumen into the one or more aggregates;
- drag elevator (12) disposed below the first and second individual dosing silos (2,3), the drag elevator (12) having a synchronizer gear system for one or more mixer shafts, wherein the drag elevator (12) is configured to egress the hot mix asphalt;
- and
- a control cabin (11) configured to control the hot mix asphalt plant;
- and
- wherein the first and second individual dosing silos (2,3), the metering conveyor (4), the rotary dryer (5), the two-axle plug mill mixer, the drag elevator (12), and control cabin (11) are mounted on the chassis (1);
- and
- wherein the hot mix asphalt plant is configured for transport in a maritime container (8).
