Abstract
A structural and material analysis of individual elements of the mixing-unloading spiral and shell segments of the innovative mixer drum of the hydraulic truck concrete mixer with a capacity of 12 m3 was developed. A complex CAD design process of individual elements in terms of the developed manufacturing technology was carried out. The construction of the mixer components was verified in the 3D-CAD system and a numerical analysis of stress distribution using the finite element method (FEM) was carried out for key segments of the spiral, which directly determines the implementation of the correct and efficient concrete mixing process. The research resulted in the development of comprehensive technical documentation of the original mixer structure, including executive drawings of the components along with a description of the manufacturing technology and the choice of the initial material–steel with increased abrasion resistance. The results of the completed research process were used in the next stage of research, i.e. bench tests of the innovative design of the 12 m3 mixer drum.
