  • Patent Number: 11214,930
  • Publication Date: January 04, 2022
  • Appl. No: 16/279774
  • Application Filed: February 19, 2019
  • Assignees: McAnany Construction, Inc. (Shawnee, KS, US)
  • Claim: 1. An ultrathin bonded asphalt surface (UBAS) asphalt surface repaving system comprising: a milling machine with a rotating drum configured for milling a layer of existing asphalt material and texturizing said asphalt surface in preparation for application of emulsion bonding liquid (EBL) and hot mix asphalt (HMA) in one pass; a spray paver machine including: front and back ends; opposite sides; a hopper configured for receiving asphalt surface aggregate; an emulsion bonding liquid (EBL) reservoir; an EBL discharge subsystem connected to said EBL reservoir; an aggregate discharge subsystem; and a screed subassembly; said EBL discharge subsystem including: a front, leading EBL spray bar at said spray paver machine front end; a pair of side EBL spray bars each pivotally attached to a respective spray paver machine side and configured for pivotally swinging fore-and-aft relative to said spray paver machine; multiple, selectively variable-output spray nozzles mounted in spaced relation along said leading and side EBL spray bars; said aggregate discharge subsystem including first and second screw augers extending transversely relative to said spray paver machine and configured for discharging aggregate laterally from the sides of said spray paver machine; a controller programmed for applying predetermined quantities-per-area of EBL to said prepared asphalt surface and predetermined quantities-per-area of aggregate to said EBL; said controller is connected to said spray nozzles and is configured for pre-programming with an EBL application pattern which avoids overspray and gaps in said EBL selectively and variably controlling their respective EBL discharges; said controller is configured for controlling the application of said EBL over said pattern; a Global Positioning System (GPS) positioning device connected to said controller; and said controller configured for selectively, individually and variably controlling the output of said spray nozzles based on said spray paver machine location determined by said GPS positioning device.
  • Claim: 2. The UBAS repaving system according to claim 1 wherein said asphalt surface is located within a residential neighborhood.
  • Claim: 3. The UBAS repaving system according to claim 1 wherein said asphalt surface is located in one of a cul-de-sac and a roundabout.
  • Claim: 4. The UBAS repaving system according to claim 1 wherein said rotating drum includes multiple chisels with a transverse spacing in the range of approximately 7-9 mm.
  • Claim: 5. The UBAS repaving system according to claim 1 wherein said EBL is applied with a shot rate in the range of approximately 0.1-0.2 GAL/SY.
  • Claim: 6. The UBAS repaving system according to claim 1 wherein said aggregate-liquid asphalt ratio is in the range of approximately 18.5:1.5 to 19.5:0.5.
  • Claim: 7. A method of repaving an asphalt surface with an ultrathin bonded asphalt surface (UBAS) comprising the steps of: providing a milling machine with a rotating drum configured for milling a layer of existing asphalt material and texturizing said asphalt surface in preparation for application of emulsion bonding liquid (EBL) and hot mix asphalt (HMA) in one pass; providing a spray paver machine including: front and back ends; opposite sides; a hopper configured for receiving asphalt surface aggregate; an emulsion bonding liquid (EBL) reservoir; an EBL discharge subsystem connected to said EBL reservoir; an aggregate discharge subsystem; and a screed subassembly; providing said EBL discharge subsystem with: a front, leading EBL spray bar at said spray paver machine front end; a pair of side EBL spray bars each pivotally attached to a respective spray paver machine side and configured for pivotally swinging fore-and-aft relative to said spray paver machine; providing multiple, selectively variable-output spray nozzles mounted in spaced relation along said leading and side EBL spray bars; said aggregate discharge subsystem including first and second screw augers extending transversely relative to said spray paver machine and configured for discharging aggregate laterally from the sides of said spray paver machine; providing a controller programmed for applying predetermined quantities-per-area of EBL to said prepared asphalt surface and predetermined quantities-per-area of aggregate to said EBL; said controller is connected to said spray nozzles and is configured for pre-programming with an EBL application pattern which avoids overspray and gaps in said EBL selectively and variably controlling their respective EBL discharges; said controller is configured for controlling the application of said EBL over said pattern; providing a Global Positioning System (GPS) positioning device connected to said controller; and said controller configured for selectively, individually and variably controlling the output of said spray nozzles based on said spray paver machine location determined by said GPS positioning device.
