What kind of vehicle is used for pouring concrete?
1 Answers
Concrete pouring vehicles are called concrete pump trucks. The following is an introduction to concrete pump trucks: 1. Introduction to concrete pump trucks: These are machines that use pressure to continuously transport concrete through pipelines. They consist of a pump body and delivery pipes. Based on structural types, they are categorized into piston-type, extrusion-type, and hydraulic diaphragm-type. The pump body is mounted on a vehicle chassis, and when equipped with an extendable or foldable placing boom, it forms a pump truck. Concrete pump trucks are modified from heavy-duty truck chassis, with the chassis fitted with motion and power transmission devices, pumping and mixing devices, placing devices, and other auxiliary equipment. The power of the concrete pump truck is transmitted from the engine to the hydraulic pump group or rear axle through a power take-off box, and the hydraulic pump drives the piston to operate the concrete pump. The placing boom and delivery pipes on the pump truck are then used to transport concrete to a certain height and distance. 2. Classification of concrete pump trucks: They consist of five main parts: the boom, pumping system, hydraulic system, support system, and electrical control system.
