Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for controlling structural deterioration of a vehicle parking structure by arresting deterioration caused by road salt erosion and corrosion of concrete floors and reinforcing steel in that structure. The invention includes spray washing the underside of vehicles prior to entry into the parking structure to remove road salt and thereby reduce road salt corrosive action within the facility. The invention further comprises arresting corrosion due to road salt which already has penetrated the concrete floors within the parking structure by the application of a chemical detergent which neutralizes the road salt that previously has penetrated the concrete. The chemical detergent may include a material having galvanic characteristics, such as metallic particles, which are believed to aid in inhibiting corrosion of the reinforcing steel.

Abstract: An apparatus for drying two materials comprising two coaxial cylinders, means for rotating the coaxial cylinders, means for introducing a first material into one end of the inner cylinder, means for heating the first material, means for moving the first material in response to the rotation of the cylinders along the interior of the inner cylinder so same is discharged from a second end thereof into an adjacent end of the outer cylinder, means for introducing a second material into the said adjacent end of the outer cylinder, and means for moving the first and second materials in response to the rotation of the cylinders along the interior of the outer cylinder in a direction contra to that of the movement of the first material in the inner cylinder so said first and second materials are discharged from the other end of the outer cylinder. The first material is dried in the inner cylinder by direct heating. The second material is dried in the outer cylinder by the heat exchange between the inner and outer cylinders and the first and second materials thereby conserving energy.

Abstract: A machine for drying granular materials such as sand and gravel. The machine includes coaxial inner and outer cylinders. Moist sand is introduced into an inlet end of the inner cylinder and gravel is introduced into the inlet end of the outer cylinder. The sand is moved along the inner cylinder by impellers toward the outlet end of the inner cylinder in heat exchange relation with the inner cylinder while the sand is heated to evaporate water therefrom. The heated sand is directed from the outlet end of the inner cylinder into an inlet end portion of the outer cylinder to mix with the gravel. Impeller assemblies mounted on the interior of the outer cylinder raise the sand-gravel mixture as the cylinders rotate to cause the sand-gravel mixture to advance along the space between the cylinders toward the outlet end of the outer cylinder and to cascade against an outer wall of the inner cylinder. End portions of the inner cylinder are carried by support assemblies mounted on the outer cylinder. Resilient support assemblies support a central portion of the inner cylinder. The resilient support assemblies accommodate variations in diameter of central portions of the cylinders during operation of the machine.

The heated sand is directed from the outlet end of the inner cylinder into an inlet end portion of the outer cylinder to mix with the gravel. Impeller assemblies mounted on the interior of the outer cylinder raise the sand-gravel mixture as the cyliners rotate to cause the sand-gravel mixture to advance along a space between the cylinders toward the outlet end of the outer cylinder and to cascade against an outer wall of the inner cylinder. Catch plate assemblies mounted on the outer wall of the inner cylinder and extending outwardly therefrom catch the sand-gravel mixture as the sand-gravel mixture cascades against the outer wall of the inner cylinder to hold the sand-gravel mixture in heat exchange relation to the inner cylinder as the cylinders revolve so that an outlet end portion of the inner cylinder can heat the sand-gravel mixture to a sufficient temperature that moisture in the gravel is caused to evaporate, and the sand-gravel mixture is cooled by the moist sand in an inlet end portion of the inner cylinder as the sand-gravel mixture advances to the discharge end of the outer cylinder. The cylinders are driven by a chain which runs on a sectional sprocket mounted on the outer cylinder. Sections of the sectional sprocket are separately mounted on the outer cylinder so that the outer cylinder can flex with changes of temperature of portions thereof.
