The invention relates to an embossing method and an embossing machine, in particular to an embossing machine and a method for embossing an unsolidified concrete surface using the embossing machine.

The surface of concrete needs to be non-flat surface permanently or temporarily for different reasons. For example, due to the convenience of construction, concrete must be poured in stages, and structural weaknesses are likely to occur if sufficient friction or anchoring force is not provided at the junction of different placements. Therefore, the builder needs to create an uneven surface, or embossed surface, on the bottom surface of the concrete that was previously poured to provide sufficient friction between the subsequent concrete and the previous concrete. Or fixation. The conventional method uses artificial methods, such as embossing the lower concrete surface with a harder bamboo broom to form indentations (grooves) to increase its contact area. However, this method of artificially generating embossing is too time-consuming, and the pattern and thickness of the embossing are often uneven, which will affect the fixing force of the combination.

In addition to the aforementioned situation of temporary uneven concrete surface, for aesthetic reasons, the vertical surface of the concrete wall is designed to form a permanent uneven concrete surface. In this case, the concrete surface usually has a design texture. The conventional way to produce such lines is through special molds, such as rubber molds. However, such molds are expensive Expensive, and the number of uses is limited.

Therefore, how to improve the stability of the embossing of concrete on the ground, thereby improving the fixation of the concrete, or producing a decorative concrete wall with textures in a fast and relatively economical manner is what the industry expects.

The following introduces a method of embossing an unset concrete surface 7, please refer to Consider Figures 3 and 6, where Figure 6 is a flow chart of a method of embossing an unset concrete surface 7. In step S610, a track group 70 as described above is provided. In step S620, the embossing machine 1 as described above is provided. In step S630, the embossing machine 1 is placed on the track group 70. At this time, the guide wheels 13 of the embossing machine 1 are all located on the track set 70, and the bottom of the embossing wheel 12 is in contact with the surface 7 (as shown in FIG. 2). Then, in step S640, the embossing machine 1 is driven to move along a first direction D1 in which the track group 70 extends through the driving system 14 to emboss the unsolidified concrete surface 7.

FIG. 7 is a schematic top view of the embossing machine 1 shown in FIG. 1 moving along the first direction D1. 6 and 7, in step S650, a first distance from the embossing machine 1 to the end of the track group 70 is detected. At this time, the front sensor 16 will continue to detect the end of the track group 70. In this embodiment, the step of detecting the first distance from the embossing machine 1 to the end of the track group 70 in step S650 includes: providing a host computer 15 on the frame 11 and electrically coupling the host computer 15 to the driving system 14 Provide at least one sensor 16, 16a on the frame 11, and make at least one sensor 16, 16a electrically coupled to the computer host 15; and make at least one sensor 16 detect an area (that is, the sector space Z in this embodiment ) Whether there is track group 70. In this embodiment, a Hall sensor is used to detect the first distance from the embossing machine 1 to the end of the track set 70. For example, the first distance can be 0, 15, 30 cm, and the first distance can be set according to actual needs.

Next, in step S670, if the host computer 15 determines that the first distance is less than or equal to a first predetermined value, the movement direction of the embossing machine 1 is stopped or reversed. In other words, when the host computer 15 determines that the embossing machine 1 is about to or has reached the end of the track group 70, the driving system 14 stops or reverses to continue the embossing operation according to the original setting.

If the host computer 15 determines that the first distance is greater than a first predetermined value, step S640 is performed, that is, the drive system 14 continues to drive the embossing machine 1 along the track set 70. Move in one direction D1 to emboss the surface 7 of the incompletely solidified concrete. In other words, when the host computer 15 determines that the embossing machine 1 has not reached the end of the track group 70, the driving system 14 drives the overall embossing machine 1 to continue to advance.

Fig. 8 is a flow chart of a method for embossing an unset concrete surface according to a second embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, after step S670 of reversing the movement direction of the embossing machine 1 shown in FIG. 6, the embossing method may further include the following steps. First, in step S810, the embossing machine 1 is driven to move along the second direction D2 in which the track set 70 extends to emboss the unsolidified concrete surface 7. In step S820, a second distance from the embossing machine 1 to the other end of the track group 70 is detected. Next, in step S830, the host computer 15 determines whether the second distance is less than or equal to a second predetermined value. If the second distance is less than or equal to a second predetermined value, step S840 is performed to stop or reverse the embossing machine. That is to say, when the embossing machine 1 reverses to perform the embossing operation along the second direction D2 opposite to the first direction D1, the other sensor 16a starts to detect whether the other end of the track group 70 is reached. If the host computer 15 determines that the second distance is greater than the second predetermined value, it means that the embossing machine 1 is about to or has come to an end. According to the original setting, the embossing machine 1 will stop running or further reverse to make the embossing The machine 1 continues to move along the original first direction D1.

Please refer to FIG. 9, which is a flowchart of step S640 in FIG. 6 according to an embodiment of the present invention. In one embodiment, the step of driving the embossing machine 1 to move along the first direction D1 in which the track set 70 extends may further include the following steps. In step 910, a rotation speed of the embossing machine 1 is set. In step S920, the embossing machine 1 is driven to rotate at the rotation speed. In step S930, a load generated when the embossing machine 1 rotates is detected. In step S940, the host computer 15 determines whether the load is greater than or equal to a normal load preset value. If it is determined that the load is greater than or equal to a normal load preset value, step S950 is performed to drive the embossing machine 1 to move along the first direction where the track set extends. If If it is determined that the load is less than the normal load preset value, step S960 is performed to reduce the rotational speed of the driving system of the embossing machine 1.

In this embodiment, in order to prevent the embossing machine 1 from idling on the surface 7, the embossing machine 1 may further include a load sensor (not shown) for detecting the load of the embossing wheel 12. If the actual load detected by the load sensor is less than the normal load preset value, it means that the embossing wheel 12 may be idling, and the computer host 15 sends a signal to the driving system 14 to reduce the speed of the embossing wheel 12. On the other hand, when the actual load is actually equal to the normal load preset value, it means that the embossing wheel 12 has been rotated normally, and the speed can be fixed.

Please refer to FIG. 10, which is a flowchart of step S640 in FIG. 6 according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the step of driving the embossing machine 1 to move along the first direction D1 extended by the track set 70 may further include the following steps: In step S1010, a level value of the embossing machine 1 is detected. In step S1020, it is determined whether the level value is within a preset range. If the horizontal value is within a preset range, step S1030 is performed to drive the embossing machine 1 to move along the first direction in which the track set 70 extends. If the level value exceeds the preset range, step S1040 is performed to stop the operation of the embossing machine 1. Next, step S1050 is executed to adjust the level of the embossing machine 1. For example, the adjustment can be made manually, or the position of the track group 70 can be adjusted.

In this embodiment, in order to enable the embossing machine 1 to move horizontally and stably and perform embossing, the embossing machine 1 may further include a level sensor (not shown) for detecting the position of the embossing wheel 12 Level. If the actual level value detected by the level sensor is within a preset level range, it means that the embossing wheel 12 may be idling. The computer host 15 sends a signal to the drive system 14 to reduce the embossing wheel 12 Rotating speed. On the other hand, when the actual load is actually equal to the normal load preset value, it means that the embossing wheel 12 has been rotated normally, and the speed can be fixed.
