[0025] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 A sand storage device comprises a sand storage tank 10, wherein the sand storage tank 10 is provided with a sand inlet 110 and a sand outlet 120, wherein the sand inlet 110 is provided with a sand adding valve 20, wherein the sand adding valve 20 comprises a valve body 200 connected with the sand inlet 110, wherein the valve body 200 is provided with a first port 210 and a second port 220, wherein the first port 210 is connected with the sand inlet 110, wherein a deformable sealing sheet 230 for sealing the second port 220 is provided in the valve body 200, wherein the deformable sealing sheet 230 is connected with a counterweight 240, and wherein the sand adding valve 20 is provided with an air inlet nozzle 30, wherein the air inlet nozzle 30 is located below the counterweight 240 and an air outlet end is arranged toward the counterweight 240;

[0027] The second port 220 is connected to a sand adding tank 40;

[0028] The counterweight block 240 is configured to: drive the deformable sealing sheet 230 to deform downward, so that the second port 220 is in an open state and communicates with the interior of the valve body 200;

[0029] The air inlet nozzle 30 is configured such that when the air inlet nozzle 30 is inletting air, the compressed air outputted from the air outlet end thereof drives the counterweight block 240 and the deformable sealing sheet 230 to fit upwardly with the valve body 200 to close the second port 220 .

[0030] Based on the above embodiment, the deformable sealing sheet and the counterweight block are matched. Under the natural state, the counterweight block and the deformable sealing sheet are deformed and move downward under the action of gravity, so that the second port is in an open state. In this state, the sand in the sand adding tank can enter the sand storage tank through the second port, the valve body and the sand adding port.

[0031] During sandblasting in this embodiment, external compressed air is input into the valve body from the air nozzle. Under the action of the compressed air, the counterweight block and the deformable sealing sheet move upward and fit into the valve body, so that the second port is closed, thus completing the sealing.

[0032] The present invention uses the compressed air originally required for sandblasting to drive the deformable sealing sheet to close the second port, thereby solving the problems of high control cost and high valve procurement cost caused by the pneumatic valve or electric valve that needs to be controlled separately in the prior art. The present invention has the effect of simple control structure and low manufacturing cost.

[0033] See also Figure 3 and Figure 5 The valve body 200 is connected to a fixing member 250, and the fixing member 250 is provided with a deformable connecting member 260 connected to the deformable sealing sheet 230. The fixing member 250 is fixedly arranged, and with the weight of the counterweight block 240 or the driving of compressed air, the deformable sealing sheet 230 and the deformable connecting member 260 are deformed to swing up and down relative to the fixing member 250, so as to realize the opening or closing of the second port 220.

[0034] Furthermore, the diameter of the counterweight block 240 is greater than the diameter of the second port 220. This design can achieve that when the compressed air drives the counterweight block 230 and the deformable sealing plate 230 to move upward, the counterweight block 240 can drive the deformable sealing plate 230 to fit tightly against the inner wall of the valve body 200, thereby preventing the deformable sealing plate 230 from deforming upward and entering the second port 220.

[0035] See also Figures 1 to 3 The valve body 200 is provided with an annular fixing groove 204 , and the fixing member 250 is fixedly disposed in the annular fixing groove 204 .

[0036] See also Figures 1 to 3The valve body 200 includes a first connecting member 201, a second connecting member 202 and a third connecting member 203 which are sequentially connected from bottom to top. The first port 210 is arranged on the first connecting member 201, and the second port 220 is arranged on the third connecting member 203. The upper surface of the deformable sealing sheet 230 forms a seal when it is in contact with the lower surface of the third connecting member 203.

[0037] See also Figures 1 to 3 The annular fixing groove 204 is arranged between the second connecting member 202 and the third connecting member 203 .

[0038] See also Figure 3 The first connecting member 201, the second connecting member 202 and the third connecting member 203 are connected in sequence using multiple bolts 205.

[0039] See also Figure 3 and Figure 5 The fixing member 250 is provided with a fixing hole 251 , and the bolt 205 is passed through the fixing hole 251 .

[0040] See also Figure 3 and Figure 5 The upper surface of the deformable sealing sheet 230 is provided with a sealing convex ring 231. The provision of the sealing convex ring 231 can strengthen the fitting and sealing between the deformable sealing sheet 230 and the lower surface of the third connecting member 203, and effectively improve the sealing performance.

[0041] See also Figure 4 The sand adding tank 40 is located above the sand storage tank 10 , and the sand adding tank 40 is connected to a pipe fitting 50 and connected to the second port 220 .

[0042] See also Figure 4 The sand storage tank 10 is respectively provided with a pressure relief valve 60 and a safety valve 70 .

[0043] The function of the safety valve 70 is to open and release the pressure when the internal pressure of the sand storage tank 10 is greater than the threshold value of the safety valve 70, thereby ensuring safety.

[0044] The function of the pressure relief valve 60 is that when adding sand, the pressure relief valve 60 is opened to connect the inside and outside of the sand storage tank 10. In this state, the air nozzle 30 is in a closed state, and the deformable sealing sheet cooperates with the counterweight block. In a natural state, the counterweight block and the deformable sealing sheet are deformed and move downward under the action of gravity, so that the second port is in an open state. In this state, the sand in the sand adding tank can enter the sand storage tank through the second port, the valve body and the sand adding port.

[0045] During sandblasting, the pressure relief valve 60 is closed and the air nozzle 30 is opened. The compressed air input from the air nozzle 30 drives the counterweight block 240 and the deformable sealing sheet 230 upward to fit the valve body 200 to form a seal. The input compressed air drives the sand to be output from the sand outlet 120 for use.

[0046] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sand storage tank 10 is provided with a base frame 100 .
