The present invention relates to a road drying apparatus, and in particular, by installing a hot water pipe under the surface of the road to remove the freezing state of the road surface to prevent slipping of the vehicle, as well as through the weather conditions of the remote site through voice guidance It relates to a road building system that can be guided and appropriate measures can be taken.

In general, if the road surface freezes on bridges, shady roads, slopes, and sharp curves, the risk of sliding accidents is greatly increased.

In order to solve such a freezing state by spraying calcium chloride to temporarily release the freezing state, there is a problem that the freezing again when the temperature drops sharply again.

Therefore, in recent years, the bridge is easy to freeze to solve this problem. Or on a shady road where the freezing state cannot be easily released, and on a slope road or a sharp curve road where the freezing state should not occur even for a while, a heating wire is installed under the surface of the road to release the freezing state by the heat generated from the heating wire. In addition, it will dry the wet state.

Therefore, the road remains dry at all times so that no icing occurs.

By the way, the device for building the road by such a hot wire consumes a lot of power and takes a lot of operating costs, and when a crack occurs on the road, rainwater is infiltrated through it, which may include a short circuit.

In addition, when local weather changes are severe, it is difficult to check the on-site weather condition one by one, which makes it difficult to take immediate action on time.

For example, if the temperature drops sharply due to rain in a limited area, if the station or manager in another area is not aware of it, the freezing condition cannot be resolved quickly, so there is a high risk of a vehicle accident due to slipping. Problems will arise.

The present invention to solve this conventional problem, by installing a hot water pipe in the lower portion of the road surface to circulate the hot water heated from the boiler to release the freezing state, and very inexpensive operation, and also to the crack on the road surface Even if a leak occurs, the electrical problem caused by a short circuit, etc. has been solved, and it is also an object of the present invention to provide a road construction apparatus to promptly respond to the weather conditions of the site to the remote manager.

Road construction apparatus of the present invention for achieving this technical problem,

Hot water pipe is installed at the lower part of the road surface, the hot water pipe is configured to circulate the hot water heated by the boiler to dry the freezing and wet state of the road surface,

Rainfall sensor and temperature sensor installed at the site where the hot water pipe is installed;

An information guide module that combines voice or text to guide the values sensed by the rainfall sensor and the temperature sensor to voice or text;

A control unit for transmitting the voice guidance generated by the information guide module to a remote place through a communication unit and controlling an operation state of the boiler by a code input from the remote place;

Characterized in that consisting of; a communication unit in charge of the communication with the remote.

The present invention configured as described above will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a view showing a state in which a hot water pipe for drying is installed on the road according to the present invention, Figure 2 is a system block diagram for road building, Figure 3 is a flow chart showing a control procedure.

The hot water pipe 100 for circulating the hot water is installed in the lower part of the surface of the road 1 as shown in FIG. 1, and is buried with a length of about 6-10 cm from the surface of the road 1 to efficiently transfer heat. do.

In addition, the hot water pipe 100 may be installed in any direction in the transverse direction or longitudinal direction of the road (1), in Figure 1 shows a state installed in the transverse direction.

In order to circulate the hot water in the hot water pipe 100, the boiler 110 and the circulation pump 120 is provided in the vicinity of the hot water pipe 100 is installed, the boiler 110 is heated by the electric heater to generate hot water. Another alternative could be gas or oil boilers.

In addition, the circulation pump 120 is installed on the path of the hot water pipe 100 to circulate the hot water generated by the boiler 110.

Therefore, the hot water heated by the boiler 100 to about 70-80 ° C. circulates through the hot water pipe 100, thereby drying the frozen state or the wet state on the surface of the road 1.

On the other hand, it is necessary to appropriately control the operation time of the boiler 100 to reduce the operating cost, for this purpose, to check the weather conditions of the site from a remote place to control the operation and termination of the boiler 100.

For example, in the rainy season, it is almost meaningless to operate a boiler because of the heavy rainfall, continuous rain, and summer.

Therefore, it is necessary to operate in the winter when the freezing is easy, and even in winter, even if it rains when the temperature of the image, it will not be necessary to operate the boiler.

However, when the temperature is below freezing with snow or rain, the boiler should be operated to release the freezing condition and dry at the same time.

To this end, the rainfall sensor 210 and the temperature sensor 230 is installed on the site, the snow sensor 220 is additionally installed in the site of a lot of snow.

The controller 200 receives the sensed values from each of the sensors 210, 220, and 230 periodically (for example, every 30 minutes) and provides them to the information guide module 240 to provide the administrator with voice or text to provide on-site weather conditions. It will generate guide information for.

For example, when the voice or text information is generated, “the first local site, the current rainfall is 10 mm and the temperature is minus 5 degrees as of 10:30 am,” the control unit 200 remotely communicates through the communication unit 250. Call the administrator of the preset phone number will be sent periodically.

At this time, the communication unit 250 is a wired or wireless telephone device, and communicates with a telephone possessed by an administrator. When the administrator generates such voice or text information, the communication unit 250 inputs control information through a dial pad.

For example, if the voice or text information transmitted through the communication unit 250 is "boiler operation number 1, boiler operation time setting number 2, boiler operation number 3 number", the administrator recognizes this information and The control code is entered through the dial pad of the telephone.

Therefore, the control unit 200 receives the control code through the communication unit 250 to control the boiler 110.

In the above method, the control unit 200 periodically makes a phone call to the manager to provide the information. Alternatively, the control unit 200 periodically collects the weather conditions of the site and has guide information. When calling the communication unit 250 through the phone roll, the control unit 200 may provide a voice guidance as described above to receive the control code according to the control from the manager 110 to perform the control.

As described above, the present invention, by installing a hot water pipe in the lower portion of the road surface to circulate the hot water warmed from the boiler to release the freezing state, it is possible to operate very inexpensively, and also leaked by cracks on the road surface Even if a problem occurs, the electrical problem caused by a short circuit, etc. has been solved, and there is an effect of prompting the administrator of the remote site to notify the weather condition of the site so that quick response can be made.
