TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of powder storage, in particular to an assembled powder intelligent storage tank. BACKGROUND
[0002] A large number of horizontal powder storage tanks are used in factories, and compared with vertical storage tanks, the horizontal powder storage tanks have low height, low gravity center, are relatively safe, and are suitable for being placed in a factory building.
[0003] However, the existing horizontal powder storage tank is bulky and too long, and the powder storage tank needs to be moved due to production reasons in the factory building. When the powder storage tank is moved, it often needs to pass through the corner of a narrow road section. However, the long horizontal powder storage tank is difficult to pass through the corner during transportation. At present, the invention patent with the publication number CN210479653U discloses an assembled powder storage tank. The vertical powder storage tank adopts a folding design, and the product is convenient to transport after being folded. However, the product has a height that is too high after being assembled and expanded, and is not suitable for use in a factory building. At present, there is no assembled horizontal powder intelligent storage tank.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an assembled powder intelligent storage tank, which can be disassembled and folded before the powder storage tank is transported, so that the powder storage tank is convenient to transport. SUMMARY
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings that the existing horizontal powder storage tank is difficult to move and transport, the present application provides an assembled powder intelligent storage tank.
[0006] Technical scheme: An assembled powder intelligent storage tank comprises a scissor-type connecting rod mechanism and a table-shaped shell. The present application is provided with two parallel scissor-type connecting rod mechanisms. Each of the two scissor-type connecting rod mechanisms is connected with a plurality of table-shaped shells on the opposite side, and the table-shaped shells connected with each of the two scissor-type connecting rod mechanisms face opposite directions. The middle rotating shaft of the scissor-type connecting rod mechanism is connected with the cylindrical rod on the table-shaped shell. The table-shaped shell is made of light plastic. Each of the front end and the rear end of the table-shaped shell has an opening. The larger one is called the large-end opening, and the smaller one is called the small-end opening. All the table-shaped shells are detachably connected. The assembled powder intelligent storage tank further comprises a large bottom cover and a small bottom cover. The large-end opening of the table-shaped shell at the front end on the right side is fixedly connected with the large bottom cover. The lower part of the large bottom cover is provided with a discharge port, and the discharge port is provided with a valve. The small-end opening of the table-shaped shell at the rear end on the right side is fixedly connected with the small bottom cover. The upper part of the small bottom cover is provided with an inlet, and the inlet is provided with a valve.
[0007] Further description: The assembled powder intelligent storage tank further comprises a sliding support and an electric wheel. The front end and the rear end of each scissor-type connecting rod mechanism are slidably connected with a sliding support. Two electric wheels are rotatably connected to each sliding support. The electric wheel is provided with a motor and a battery.
[0008] To further explain, it also includes an intelligent control system; the sliding bracket is equipped with an intelligent control system, which is used to control the installation angle of the electric wheel on the sliding bracket and the rotation of the electric wheel, so that the electric wheel can drive the sliding bracket to move in various directions as needed.
[0009] To further explain, the two sliding supports located at the rear are slidably connected to each other.
[0010] To further explain, when the cylindrical rod and the scissor linkage are rotatably connected and the platform-shaped shells are fixed to each other, the lower edge of the platform-shaped shells is parallel to the horizontal plane to prevent the powder from being unable to be discharged smoothly.
[0011] To further explain, it also includes a rotary motor; the scissor linkage mechanism is equipped with several rotary motors, the number of which is the same as the number of connected platform-shaped housings, and the rotary motors are connected to the cylindrical rods of the corresponding platform-shaped housings, which are used to drive the platform-shaped housings to rotate by driving the cylindrical rods to rotate.
[0012] To further explain, the bottom cover has ventilation openings, and the ventilation openings are equipped with filters.
[0013] To further clarify, the ventilation opening is equipped with an electric baffle.
[0014] To further explain, the upper part of the platform-shaped shell is equipped with a one-way valve that only allows air to flow from the inside to the outside, in order to reduce the air accumulated in the platform-shaped shell and prevent external moisture from entering the space where the powder is stored.
[0015] To further explain, both the large-end opening and the small-end opening are coated with a thin layer of rubber film.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Through reasonable design, this invention realizes the folding of horizontal powder storage tanks, allowing the powder storage tanks to be folded down to a smaller size during transportation, which is beneficial for passing through the corners of roads and factories, and improves the convenience of transportation.
[0017] This invention avoids a recessed portion at the bottom of the storage space formed by the fixed connection of the platform-shaped shell by setting the lower edge of the shell to be parallel to the horizontal plane, thereby allowing the powder inside the device to flow out smoothly.
[0018] This invention incorporates a rotary motor that adjusts the lower edge of the platform-shaped shell to be horizontal when it needs to be assembled into a cylindrical shell, facilitating smooth assembly. When folding is required, the motor adjusts the platform-shaped shell to present a slight tilt angle, preventing the front platform-shaped shell from failing to fold into the rear platform-shaped shell after it has been moved closer to the same platform-shaped shell.
[0019] The application sets the electric baffle, closes the electric baffle when storing the powder, avoids the outside environment through the ventilation opening to pollute the internal powder, when the powder delivery is about to end, the electric baffle rotates back and forth, guides the direction of the airflow sprayed by the ventilation opening, and promotes the residual powder to be discharged.

[0030] Example 1
[0031] A prefabricated intelligent powder storage tank, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, the invention includes a scissor-type linkage mechanism 103 and a platform-shaped housing 101. The invention comprises two parallel scissor-type linkage mechanisms 103. Each of the two scissor-type linkage mechanisms 103 is connected to several platform-shaped housings 101 on opposite sides, and the platform-shaped housings 101 connected to each of the two scissor-type linkage mechanisms 103 face opposite directions. The central pivot of the scissor-type linkage mechanism 103 is connected to a cylindrical rod 101c on the platform-shaped housing 101. The platform-shaped housing 101 is made of lightweight plastic, and each of its front and rear ends has an opening, the larger one being called the large-end opening 101a and the smaller one the small-end opening 101b. All platform-shaped housings 101 are bolted together. When the platform-shaped housing 101 is stored, as shown... Figure 1 As shown, when the platform-shaped housings 101 are bolted together, as Figure 3 As shown;
[0032] It also includes a large bottom cover 121 and a small bottom cover 122; the large end opening 101a of the far right platform shell 101 is fixedly connected to the large bottom cover 121, and the lower part of the large bottom cover 121 is provided with a discharge port 121a, which is equipped with a valve; the small end opening 101b of the far right platform shell 101 is fixedly connected to the small bottom cover 122, and the upper part of the small bottom cover 122 is provided with a feed port 122a, which is equipped with a valve; after the platform shells 101 are connected to each other, the internal space enclosed by the platform shell 101, the large bottom cover 121 and the small bottom cover 122 is used to store powder.
[0033] It also includes a sliding bracket 104 and an electric wheel 102; each scissor linkage mechanism 103 has a sliding bracket 104 slidably connected to its front and rear ends, and two electric wheels 102 are rotatably connected to each sliding bracket 104. The electric wheel 102 is equipped with its own motor and battery.
[0034] It also includes an intelligent control system; the sliding bracket 104 is equipped with an intelligent control system, which is used to control the installation angle of the electric wheel 102 on the sliding bracket 104 and the rotation of the electric wheel 102, so that the electric wheel 102 can drive the sliding bracket 104 to move in various directions as needed.
[0035] The two sliding supports 104 at the back are connected to each other in sliding manner.
[0036] Referring to Figure 1 , taking the side where the large bottom cover 121 is as the front side, Figure 1 , the working principle of the device in the folded state is described below. The steps before the device is used, that is, from the state shown in Figure 1 to the state shown in Figure 2 , and then to the state shown in Figure 3 , are described below.
[0037] Before the device is used, the device is in the state shown in Figure 1 . When it is ready to be used, the electric wheels 102 on the two sliding supports 104 at the front are started by the intelligent control system, so that the electric wheels 102 drive the corresponding sliding supports 104 to move forward, and then the two sliding supports 104 drive the scissor linkage mechanisms 103 connected thereto to expand forward, so that the table-shaped housings 101 connected to the scissor linkage mechanisms 103 change from the folded state to the expanded state. When the scissor linkage mechanisms 103 cannot continue to expand, the state shown in Figure 2 is formed. At this time, the electric wheels 102 are stopped, and the installation angle of the electric wheels 102 on the corresponding sliding supports 104 is controlled by the intelligent control system, so that all the electric wheels 102 are oriented left and right. Then the electric wheels 102 are started to drive the corresponding sliding supports 104 to move, so that the sliding supports 104 and the scissor linkage mechanisms 103 on the left move to the right, and the sliding supports 104 and the scissor linkage mechanisms 103 on the right move to the left, until all the sliding supports 104 are located on the same straight line, and then the table-shaped housings 101 are close to each other, so that all the table-shaped housings 101 are located on the same straight line. Then the installation angle of the electric wheels 102 on the corresponding sliding supports 104 is controlled by the intelligent control system, and then the electric wheels 102 are started to drive the corresponding sliding supports 104 to move forward and backward, and then the sliding supports 104 drive the scissor linkage mechanisms 103 to slightly contract, so that the table-shaped housings 101 are close to each other. At this time, the large end openings 101a of the table-shaped housings 101 are in contact with the large end openings 101a of the adjacent table-shaped housings 101, and the small end openings 101b of the table-shaped housings 101 are in contact with the small end openings 101b of the adjacent table-shaped housings 101, forming the state shown in Figure 3 . At this time, the workers use bolts to connect all the adjacent table-shaped housings 101 to each other, so that all the table-shaped housings 101 become a whole, forming a cylindrical structure, and connecting the hoses for feeding to the discharge port 121a and the feeding port 122a.
[0038] When it is necessary to inject powder into the storage tank, the valve of the discharge port 121a is closed, the valve of the feeding port 122a is opened, and powder is injected into the space enclosed by the table-shaped housings 101, the large bottom cover 121, and the small bottom cover 122.
[0039] When it is necessary to remove the powder, open the valve of the discharge port 121a to allow the powder to flow out.
[0040] When it is necessary to disassemble the present invention, the assembly steps described above are reversed.
[0041] Example 2
[0042] Based on Example 1, such as Figures 4-8 As shown, the cylindrical rod 101c and the scissor linkage mechanism 103 are rotatably connected, and when the platform-shaped housings 101 are connected to each other, the lower edge of the platform-shaped housing 101 is parallel to the horizontal plane to avoid the powder from being unable to be discharged smoothly.
[0043] It also includes a rotary motor 131; the scissor linkage mechanism 103 is equipped with a number of rotary motors 131 that are the same number as the connected platform housing 101, and the rotary motors 131 are connected to the cylindrical rods 101c of the corresponding platform housing 101, for driving the platform housing 101 to rotate by driving the cylindrical rods 101c to rotate.
[0044] The bottom cover 121 is provided with a vent 121b, and the vent 121b is provided with a filter screen.
[0045] Ventilation vent 121b is equipped with an electric baffle 141.
[0046] The upper part of the platform-shaped housing 101 is provided with a one-way valve 151 that only allows air to flow from the inside to the outside, in order to reduce the air accumulated in the platform-shaped housing 101 and at the same time prevent external moisture from entering the space where the powder is stored.
[0047] Both the large end opening 101a and the small end opening 101b are coated with a thin layer of rubber film. When the platform-shaped shells 101 are fixed together, the sealing degree of the joint between the platform-shaped shells 101 is increased, preventing external moisture from entering the space where the powder is stored.
[0048] Because the truncated shell 101 has a large end opening 101a and a small end opening 101b, therefore... Figure 6 As shown in the figure above, the lower part of the assembly of the platform-shaped housing 101 has unevenness, which creates a recess 400. The lowest point of the recess 400 is the junction of the two large end openings 101a. At the same time, the lower edge of the small end opening 101b is higher than the discharge port 121a. Therefore, the lower edge of the small end opening 101b of each platform-shaped housing 101 will hinder the movement of powder, making it difficult to remove the accumulated material in the recess 400.
[0049] The platform-shaped shell 101 is designed with its lower edge parallel to the horizontal plane, so that when the present invention is in use, the lower surface of the cylindrical shell formed by the platform-shaped shell 101 is flat, avoiding the formation of the recess 400, which is conducive to the flow of powder when the powder is taken out.
[0050] But the design of the platform shell 101 is parallel to the lower edge and the horizontal plane, and all the lowest parts of the platform shell 101 are on a straight line, so when the platform shell 101 is translated towards the same platform shell 101, the front platform shell 101 cannot be overlapped into the rear platform shell 101. To solve this problem, the cylindrical rod 101c and the scissor linkage 103 are connected in rotation, so that the platform shell 101 can rotate a certain angle around the cylindrical rod 101c when it is overlapped and expanded, and the upper edges of the platform shell 101 are not directly opposite each other, so as to avoid the problem of mutual resistance of the platform shell 101 when it is translated and overlapped.
[0051] But if the cylindrical rod 101c and the scissor linkage 103 are only connected in rotation, since the cylindrical rod 101c is not at the center of gravity of the platform shell 101, the platform shell 101 will rotate too much when it is free to rotate, resulting in that the projection of the large end opening 101a and the projection of the small end opening 101b do not coincide in the vertical plane, that is, at this time the front platform shell 101 cannot be directly moved into the rear platform shell 101, at this time the worker needs to slightly lift the small end opening 101b of the platform shell 101 to make the two platform shells 101 can be translated and overlapped, therefore the present application sets a rotary motor 131, through the rotary motor 131 controls the angle of rotation of the platform shell 101 around the cylindrical rod 101c, so that when the platform shell 101 needs to be folded, the lower edge of the platform shell 101 is not horizontal, and the whole platform shell 101 is not too inclined, so that the platform shell 101 can be smoothly overlapped, and when the platform shell 101 needs to be combined, the rotary motor 131 controls the corresponding platform shell 101 to rotate so that its lower edge is horizontal, so that the lower surface of the cylindrical shell formed by the platform shell 101 is flat, avoiding the accumulation of powder.
[0052] When storing powder, in order to make the powder distribute evenly, high-pressure gas can be used to push the powder into the space formed by the platform shell 101 to store powder when the powder is input, but with the entry of high-pressure gas, part of the gas will be retained in the cylindrical shell, occupying the position that should be used to store powder, at this time the air pump is connected to the ventilation port 121b, the electric baffle 141 is started, the space for storing powder is connected to the external air pump, and a negative pressure is formed in the space for storing powder, so that most of the gas is pumped out of the ventilation port 121b, avoiding the retention of powder.
[0053] However, since the ventilation port 121b is far from the middle part of the cylindrical shell, the air pumping force is weak, so part of the high-pressure gas in the middle part of the cylindrical shell will not be discharged from the ventilation port 121b, and the platform shell 101 of the device is provided with a one-way valve 151, so that the air retained in the middle part can be discharged from the one-way valve 151 installed on the platform shell 101.
[0054] After the powder is completely sent into the device, the valves of the discharge port 121a and the feeding port 122a are closed, and the electric baffle 141 is closed to avoid external water vapor from entering the powder.
[0055] When the powder is sent out, the valve of the discharge port 121a is opened, and the powder flows out of the discharge port 121a under the action of gravity. At the same time, a high-pressure air pump is connected to the ventilation port 121b, and the electric baffle 141 is opened to allow high-pressure air to flow into the space storing the powder from the ventilation port 121b, thereby increasing the pressure in the space storing the powder and promoting the powder to flow out. After most of the powder flows out, the electric baffle 141 can also be controlled to rotate back and forth, so that the airflow encounters the electric baffle 141 at different angles and is deflected in different directions, blowing the bottom of the cylindrical shell and promoting the residual powder to be discharged.
[0056] Although the present application has been described with reference to the example embodiments, it is to be understood that the application is not limited to the disclosed example embodiments. The scope of the following claims is to be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all the variations and equivalents.
