Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to a PoP (plaster of paris) recycling and restoring device that is capable of collecting PoP fragments from construction debris or damaged roof and crushing the fragments into fine particles which are later mixed with binding agents to prepare a recycled PoP which is applied to damaged areas of surfaces in a precise and automated manner.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The process of repairing and restoring surfaces, particularly in construction and building maintenance, often involves the use of Plaster of Paris (PoP), a versatile material known for its molding and quick-setting properties. However, as PoP is frequently damaged or left as waste during construction activities, significant quantities of unused or fragmented PoP accumulate as construction debris. Currently, there is no efficient system to collect, recycle, and restore these PoP fragments to their original form for reuse in surface repairs, leading to environmental concerns and unnecessary waste generation.
[0003] There is, therefore, a need for a device that not only recycles and restores PoP fragments but also facilitates the efficient application of the recycled material for surface repairs. Existing methods of handling PoP waste do not offer a systematic and automated way to crush, refine, and reuse PoP fragments, nor do they provide a way to apply the material precisely to damaged surfaces. This invention addresses the need for a PoP recycling and restoring device capable of automating the collection, processing, and application of recycled PoP for surface restoration, thus improving sustainability and reducing material waste.
[0004] GB2218413A discloses about a waste plaster of Paris moulds as used in the ceramic industry are utilised by being ground or otherwise conditioned to a consistency in which at least a substantial proportion of the chemical elements present in the mould material are releasable by the ready solubility thereof; and such material is used for a fertiliser or other soil or growing medium conditioning agent or constituent e.g. as a top dressing for grasslands to remedy sulphur deficiency; to improve soil consistency and drainage; or as a constituent of composts.
[0005] CN101671135A discloses about a curing method of industrial waste gypsum. The curing method comprises the following steps: spraying or coating a liquid curing agent to the surface of a pressure forming machine roller or a pressure plate; pressing and forming the industrial waste gypsum with 12 percent to 20 percent of moisture content; absorbing the curing agent on the surface layer of the formed gypsum, or spraying the liquid curing agent on the surface of the formed gypsum; and forming the cured gypsum with a hard shell by the hardening of the liquid curing agent, wherein the mass of the curing agent is 0.3 to 1.0 percent of that of the gypsum. The cured gypsum can be used as the raw material of a cement retarder and building gypsum. The method can be used for curing the industrial waste gypsums, such as phosphogypsum, desulfurization gypsum, yellow gypsum, saltern gypsum and salt gypsum and the like. The curing agent is water glass, an anhydride curing agent, epoxy resin, a polyurethanecuring agent or an organic silicon curing agent. The pressure forming machine can be a pressure pelletizer, a pressure brick making machine or pressure block forming equipment, pressure strip formingequipment and pressure bar forming equipment.
[0006] Conventionally, many devices have been developed to handle construction debris and waste materials, including Plaster of Paris (PoP) with varying degrees of effectiveness. However, traditional methods often fall short in automating the collection, crushing, and application of PoP fragments for reuse. These devices lack the efficiency and precision needed to recycle PoP into a usable form, leading to continued reliance on new materials for surface repairs.
[0007] In order to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks, there exists a need in the art to develop a device that automate the collection, recycling, and precise application of PoP fragments for surface restoration. The device improve the efficiency of recycling PoP materials, reduce environmental waste, and streamline the process of surface repairs by integrating the recycling and application of PoP in a single automated device.

[0011] Yet another object of the present invention is to develop a device that provide a means to heat and cure the applied PoP material, speeding up the hardening process and ensuring durability.

[0020] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” designate both the singular and the plural, unless expressly stated to designate the singular only.
[0021] The present invention relates to a PoP (plaster of paris) recycling and restoring device that is capable of collecting PoP fragments from construction debris or damaged roof and crushing the fragments into fine particles which are later mixed with binding agents to prepare a recycled PoP which is applied to damaged areas of surfaces in a precise and automated manner.
[0022] Referring to Figure 1, an isometric view of a PoP (plaster of paris) recycling and restoring device is illustrated, comprising a cuboidal housing 101 having an expandable hollow cylindrical member 102 configured with a hopper 122, a chamber 103 installed within the housing 101, a robotic arm 104 having a sharp plate installed the hopper 122 via a sliding unit 105, a L-shaped flap 106 attached adjacent to the chamber 103 having a hydraulic pusher 123 configured with a rectangular slab 124, plurality of frames 107 having mesh filters stacked underneath the chamber 103, an acid tank 108 positioned in the housing 101 configured with a sprayer, a receptacle 109 provided in the housing 101 configured with a nitrogen cylinder, a plurality of motorized blades 110 disposed in the receptacle 109, a compartment 111 having a motorized agitator 112, located in the housing 101, , a box 113 disposed in the housing 101 a motorized stirrer 114 installed within the box 113, an L-shaped articulated telescopic pole 115 mounted on the housing 101 having a nozzle 125, an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 116 installed on the housing 101, an articulated L-shaped link 117 having an infrared heater installed on the housing 101 and a heating element 118 installed within the chamber 103, a secondary tank 119 configured with the compartment 111 and a sectioned container 120 installed within the housing 101.
[0023] The proposed device herein comprises of a cuboidal housing 101 developed to be positioned on a ground surface, wherein the housing 101 is configured with four perpendicularly installed telescopic rods 121 attached with motorized omnidirectional wheels for maneuvering of the housing 101 on ground surface. The housing is constructed from materials that offer durability, strength, and resistance to wear and tear, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh environments such as construction sites.
[0024] A user is required to press a push button integrated with the device, such that when the user presses the push button, it initiates an electrical circuit mechanism. Inside the push button, there is a spring-loaded contact mechanism that, under normal circumstances, maintains an open circuit. When the button is pressed, it compresses the spring, causing the contacts to meet and complete the circuit. This closure then sends an electrical signal to an inbuilt microcontroller associated with the device to either power up or shut down. Conversely, releasing the button allows the spring to return to its original position, breaking the circuit and sending the signal to deactivate the device.
[0025] An expandable hollow cylindrical member 102 with a hopper 122 is positioned on the housing 101 for receiving PoP fragments from roofs of buildings into a chamber 103 installed within the housing 101. A robotic arm 104 is equipped with a sharp plate as its end effector is mounted on the edge of the hopper 122 using a sliding unit 105 that is activated by the microcontroller to remove and deposit the PoP fragments into the hopper 122, where they are directed into the chamber 103.
[0026] The robotic arm 104 is able to perform the designated task with high efficiency and accuracy, wherein the robotic arm 104 consists of mechanical joints and actuators, which are controlled by the microcontroller. The actuators allow various degrees of freedom and movement and the joints are actuated by a DC (Direct Current) motor, providing the necessary force and motion to the plates to remove and deposit the PoP fragments into the hopper 122 and then the PoP fragments are dispensed into the chamber 103.
[0027] Simultaneously, the microcontroller actuates sliding unit 105 that include sliding rack and rail, such that the robotic arm 104 is mounted over the racks that are electronically operated by the microcontroller for moving over the rails. The sliding unit 105 is powered by a DC (direct current) motor that is actuated by the microcontroller by providing required electric current to the motor. The motor comprises of a coil that converts the received electric current into mechanical force by generating magnetic field, thus the mechanical force provides the required power to the rack to provide sliding movement to the robotic arm 104, allowing the robotic arm 104 to move to different positions along the hopper’s 122 edge.
[0028] An L-shaped flap 106 is attached adjacent to the chamber 103, with a hydraulic pusher 123 at one end. A rectangular slab 124 is positioned at the end of the pusher 123 using a ball and socket joint, allowing for the crushing of PoP fragments in the chamber 103 into smaller pieces. The hydraulic pusher 123 is powered by a hydraulic unit consisting of a hydraulic cylinder, hydraulic compressor, hydraulic valve and piston that work in collaboration for providing the required extension/retraction to the pusher 123.
[0029] Such that the microcontroller actuates the valve to allow passage of hydraulic fluid from the compressor within the cylinder, the hydraulic fluid further develops pressure against the piston and results in pushing and extending the piston. The piston is connected with the rod and due to applied pressure the pusher 123 extends and similarly, the microcontroller retracts the rod by closing the valve resulting in retraction of the piston. The microcontroller regulates the extension/retraction of the pusher 123 for crushing of PoP fragments in the chamber 103 into smaller pieces.
[0030] The housing 101 is configured with plurality of frames 107 each containing mesh filters are stacked beneath the chamber 103 with each mesh filter having a distinct mesh size to separate various impurities from the PoP. As the PoP passes through these filters, the varying mesh sizes effectively capture impurities of different size and larger particles are trapped by coarser mesh filters, while finer particles are separated by the filters with smaller mesh openings, ensuring the PoP is purified before further processing.
[0031] A vibration unit integrated in each of the frame 107 that is activated by the microcontroller to agitate the filters for separation of the impurities. The vibration unit consists of an electric motor and an eccentric weight. When activated by the microcontroller, the motor drives the eccentric weight, causing it to spin off-center. This imbalance generates a vibrating motion, which is transferred to the mesh filters in the frame 107. The vibration causes the filters to agitate, helping to dislodge and separate impurities from the PoP as it moves through the mesh. The continuous agitation enhances the efficiency of the filtering process by ensuring that particles are shaken loose and filtered more effectively.
[0032] An acid tank 108 is positioned within the housing 101 which is connected to a sprayer installed in the chamber 103 where the PoP fragments are processed. The sprayer is used to apply a controlled amount of acid directly onto the PoP fragments. This acid treatment helps to break down and eliminate any organic matter, such as dirt, mold, or organic contaminants, present on the PoP. The acid is sprayed in a fine mist to ensure uniform coverage over the fragments, allowing the organic matter to dissolve or degrade. This step is essential for purifying the PoP before it undergoes further processing in the recycling and restoration.
[0033] A moisture sensor is embedded in the chamber 103 to detect moisture level in the PoP. The moisture sensor consists of two electrodes that measure the electrical resistance of the material in contact with them. As moisture increases, the conductivity between the electrodes changes because water conducts electricity better than dry PoP. When the moisture level exceeds a predefined threshold, the sensor sends a signal to the microcontroller, indicating the need for moisture removal.
[0034] In response, the microcontroller activates a heating element 118 within the chamber 103 which heats the PoP to evaporate the excess moisture and restore the material to the desired dryness. The heating element 118 consists of a resistive wire, such as nichrome, which is coiled or arranged within the chamber 103. When electrical current passes through the resistive wire, the resistance to the current flow causes the wire to heat up. This heat is transferred to the surrounding PoP material, raising its temperature. As the PoP heats up, the excess moisture evaporates. The heating element 118 is controlled by the microcontroller, which regulates the amount of current supplied to the element 118 to ensure that the PoP reaches the desired temperature for moisture removal without overheating.
[0035] A receptacle 109 is located within the housing 101 that receives the PoP from the chamber 103 via a hose configured with an iris hole. The receptacle 109 is equipped with a nitrogen cylinder to assist in processing the PoP fragments. When the PoP is transferred into the receptacle 109 from the chamber 103, the Pop fragments are doused with nitrogen gas from the cylinder. The nitrogen helps to cool and stabilize the PoP material, preventing any potential chemical reactions or degradation during the crushing process. Inside the receptacle 109 plurality of motorized blades 110 are mounted on telescopic bars to crush the PoP into a fine powder.
[0036] The telescopic bars allow the blades 110 to move efficiently within the receptacle 109, applying the necessary force to break down the PoP. The blades 110 are powered by a DC (direct current) motor that is capable of converting the electric current provided from an external force into mechanical force for providing the required power to the blades 110, thus crushing the PoP into the fine powder, thus ensure consistent crushing and fine powder production.
[0037] The fine powder is transferred from the receptacle 109 to a compartment 111 having a motorized agitator 112 located in the housing 101 by means of a pipe configured with an iris hole. The compartment 111 receive a sulphuric acid from a secondary tank 119 configured with the compartment 111 to break down the PoP into gypsum by chemical reaction. After the fine powder and sulphuric acid are received within the compartment 111 via one or more pipes, the microcontroller activates the motorized agitator 112 which stirs the contents of the compartment 111, ensuring that the acid thoroughly mixes with the powder.
[0038] The agitator 112 consists of a motor, a shaft and blades 110 attached to the shaft. When the motor is activated, it rotates the shaft, causing the attached blades 110 to move. This motion creates turbulence in the material within the compartment 111, ensuring thorough mixing or agitation. The rotating blades 110 stir the contents, causing the fine PoP powder and sulphuric acid to interact and mix evenly, facilitating the chemical reaction that converts the PoP into gypsum. The agitator 112 ensures that all components are uniformly combined and helps accelerate the reaction process by preventing clumping or uneven distribution of the materials.
[0039] A box 113 is installed within the housing 101 that receives the gypsum from the compartment via one or more conduit, wherein the gypsum is mixed with a binding material to prepare a recycled PoP. The mixing is executed by means of a motorized stirrer 114 within the box 113. The box 113 receives the gypsum from the compartment 111 via a tube having an iris aperture, and the binding material is supplied to the box 113 from a sectioned container 120 via tubes.
[0040] The motorized stirrer 114 comprises of a motor that is connected to a shaft, which is further connected to a stirring paddle. The motor is linked with a DC (direct current) motor that upon being activated by the microcontroller by providing the required electric current. The motor comprises of a coil that converts the received electric current into mechanical force by generating magnetic field, thus providing the required power to the shaft to rotate on its own axis in order to properly stir the dispensed gypsum and binding material thus preparing the recycled PoP.
[0041] An L-shaped articulated telescopic pole 115 is mounted on the housing 101 configured with a nozzle 125 and connected to the box 113 via a conduit 126 for applying the recycled PoP to the damaged portion of the roof. The microcontroller activates an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 116 installed on the housing 101 to determine regions of roof requiring repair. The imaging unit 116 comprises of an image capturing arrangement including a set of lenses that captures multiple images of the surroundings, and the captured images are stored within a memory of the imaging unit 116 in form of an optical data.
[0042] The imaging unit 116 also comprises of a processor that is integrated with artificial intelligence protocols, such that the processor processes the optical data and extracts the required data from the captured images. The extracted data is further converted into digital pulses and bits and are further transmitted to the microcontroller. The microcontroller processes the received data and determines regions of roof requiring repair in accordance to which the microcontroller actuate the pole 115 and nozzle 125.
[0043] The telescopic pole 115 is linked to a pneumatic unit, including an air compressor, air cylinders, air valves and piston which works in collaboration to aid in extension and retraction of the pole 115. The pneumatic unit is operated by the microcontroller.
[0044] Such that the microcontroller actuates valve to allow passage of compressed air from the compressor within the cylinder, the compressed air further develops pressure against the piston and results in pushing and extending the piston. The piston is connected with the pole 115 and due to applied pressure the pole 115 extends and similarly, the microcontroller retracts the pole 115 by closing the valve resulting in retraction of the piston. Thus, the microcontroller regulates the extension/retraction of the pole 115 for applying the recycled PoP to the damaged portion of the roof via the nozzle 125.
[0045] The conduit 126 is configured with a pump and a flowmeter to regulate flow of the recycles PoP. The pump consists of a motor-driven impeller or piston that applies pressure to the PoP, causing it to flow through the conduit 126. The motor activates the impeller or piston, which pushes the material forward. As the impeller rotates or the piston moves, it creates a pressure differential that forces the PoP to travel along the tube. The pump ensures a consistent and controlled flow of PoP, maintaining the required speed for accurate application.
[0046] The flowmeter consists of a sensor that detects the movement of the material as it passes through the meter. In this case, an electromagnetic sensor is used to detect flow. The electromagnetic sensor works on the principle of electromagnetic induction. When the PoP material flows through a pipe equipped with electrodes, the movement of the material generates a voltage due to the magnetic field created by the sensor. This induced voltage is proportional to the velocity of the flow. As the PoP moves through the flowmeter, the sensor generates data related to the flow velocity. This data is processed to calculate the volume or mass flow rate of the PoP. The calculated data is then sent to the system’s microcontroller, which regulates the flow, ensuring that the correct amount of PoP is dispensed during application.
[0047] Further, an articulated L-shaped link 117 having an infrared heater is positioned on the housing 101 that is activated by the microcontroller to heat and cure the applied recycled PoP. The infrared heater consists of an infrared light source, typically a lamp or heating element 118 that emits infrared radiation when powered on. The infrared radiation generated by the heater is absorbed by the applied recycled PoP material, causing the molecules within the material to vibrate and generate heat. This heating effect increases the temperature of the PoP, helping it to cure and harden. The infrared heater is activated by the microcontroller, which regulates the power supplied to the heating element 118 to ensure optimal heating. The heat from the infrared radiation efficiently cures the applied PoP, speeding up the material's hardening process without requiring direct contact with the material.
[0048] The device is associated with a battery for providing the required power to the electronically and electrically operated components including the microcontroller, electrically powered sensors, motorized components and alike of the device. The battery within the device is preferably a lithium-ion-battery which is a rechargeable battery and recharges by deriving the required power from an external power source. The derived power is further stored in form of chemical energy within the battery, which when required by the components of the device derive the required energy in the form of electric current for ensuring smooth and proper functioning of the device.
[0049] The present invention works best in the following manner, where the PoP fragments are received through the hopper 122 connected to the expandable cylindrical member 102. The robotic arm 104 with the sharp plate end effector is utilized to remove and drop the PoP fragments into the hopper 122, directing the fragments into the chamber 103 within the housing 101. Once inside the chamber 103, the PoP is subjected to a series of operations aimed at breaking it down and preparing it for reuse. The hydraulic pusher 123 with the rectangular slab 124 attached at its end crushes the PoP fragments into smaller pieces, aiding in the material's breakdown. To separate impurities from the PoP, the plurality of frames 107 with mesh filters, each having the distinct mesh size are stacked beneath the chamber 103, with vibration units integrated into each frame 107 to agitate the filters and facilitate the separation process. The moisture sensor embedded in the chamber 103 detects moisture levels in the PoP, triggering the microcontroller to activate the heating element 118 if the moisture exceeds the threshold, thereby drying the material. After drying, the PoP is doused with nitrogen in a receptacle 109, where the plurality of motorized blades 110 crush the material into fine powder. The fine powder is transferred to a compartment 111 containing sulphuric acid, which chemically reacts with the PoP to form gypsum. The gypsum is then mixed with binding material in a box 113, where the motorized stirrer 114 ensures thorough mixing to create recycled PoP. Finally, the recycled PoP is applied to damaged roof portions via the nozzle 125 connected to the telescopic pole 115.
