Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of material transport containers, and in particular to a vertical 550-liter ton barrel that is convenient for filling and transporting. Background Art

[0002] In today's industrial and logistics sectors, the demand for storage and transportation of liquids and some powdered materials continues to grow. As industrial production scales expand, larger packaging containers are becoming increasingly popular. With the increasing automation of production, the filling process is also moving towards greater efficiency and precision. Consumers are increasingly concerned about product quality and safety, which indirectly affects their packaging requirements. Whether it's food, pharmaceuticals, or chemical products, consumers expect them to be properly protected during transportation and storage to avoid contamination or damage.

[0003] However, due to the large size of the container, when carrying a large amount of liquid, especially in sea transportation, it is easy for the container to leak when it is hit. At the same time, some blow molding technologies on the market are prone to uneven thickness when heated, resulting in brittleness and cracking. This patent is to provide a vertical 550-liter tonnage drum that is convenient for canning and transportation, so as to alleviate the technical problem of the inconvenient use of kitchen utensil storage racks in the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem in the prior art that, due to the large volume of the container during transportation, when carrying a large amount of liquid, especially in sea transportation, liquid leakage is easily caused when the container is collided. At the same time, some blow molding technologies on the market are prone to uneven thickness when heated unevenly, resulting in fragility and cracking. A vertical 550-liter ton barrel is proposed that is convenient for canning and transportation.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A vertical 550-liter ton barrel that is convenient for canning and transportation includes an inner barrel and a frame. The inner barrel includes a barrel mouth arranged at the top and a water outlet at the bottom. The water outlet is arranged inside an arched groove. The outer surface of the water outlet is threadedly connected to a barrel cover. The water outlet is threadedly connected to one end of a valve. A handle is provided above the valve. A pallet is provided at the bottom of the inner barrel, and a forklift opening is provided on the side of the pallet.

[0007] The above technical solution further includes:

[0008] The frame includes first to seventh cross beam rings arranged on the side of the inner liner barrel, and the frame also includes first to eighth longitudinal beams arranged on the side of the inner liner barrel. The eighth longitudinal beam is fixedly connected to the label plate, and the label plate is clamped between the second cross beam ring and the fourth cross beam ring in the vertical direction, and the label plate is clamped between the seventh longitudinal beam and the ninth longitudinal beam in the horizontal direction. The four corners of the bottom of the inner liner barrel are provided with corner guards, and the corner guards are fixed between the fifth cross beam ring and the sixth cross beam ring. The spacing between the first to sixth cross beam rings is equal and greater than the spacing between the sixth cross beam ring and the seventh beam ring.

[0009] The valve is rotatably connected to the handle, and the rotation direction of the handle is in the same horizontal plane as the top of the inner barrel. When the handle is rotated to the front of the inner barrel, the handle is located outside the arched groove.

[0010] The ninth to sixth longitudinal beams are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the inner drum, while the first to fifth longitudinal beams are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the inner drum. This symmetrical longitudinal beam layout greatly enhances the structural symmetry and stability of the frame. Whether subjected to external forces from the front or back or from the left or right, the frame can evenly distribute the force, ensuring that the inner drum is always in a stable load-bearing environment. This not only improves the impact resistance of the ton drum during transportation, but also extends the service life of the inner drum and frame, ensuring the safety of material transportation.

[0011] The forklift opening on the side of the pallet is located between the sixth longitudinal beam and the ninth longitudinal beam. Since the structural support between the sixth longitudinal beam 19 and the ninth longitudinal beam 22 is stable, it can effectively prevent the pallet 12 from deforming during the force application process, ensuring a smooth and safe handling process.

[0012] The label plate is used to record the production specifications on its surface. A third crossbeam ring is provided on one side of the label plate. The third crossbeam ring 6 provides a certain auxiliary support for the label plate 2, ensuring that the label plate 2 is not easily damaged during long-term use and can always clearly display relevant information.

[0013] The horizontal spacing between the seventh and eighth longitudinal beams is greater than the spacing between the eighth and ninth longitudinal beams and between the seventh and sixth longitudinal beams. This specific spacing optimizes the structural layout of frame 3. The larger spacing provides more suitable installation space for label plate 2, ensuring that label plate 2 is securely installed and easily accessible. Furthermore, the reasonable spacing distribution helps frame 3 better withstand and disperse external forces as a whole, enhancing its strength and stability, thereby better protecting inner liner barrel 1.

[0014] The valve is a ball valve or a butterfly valve, both of which have good sealing and easy operation. During the material filling and unloading process, the flow rate and flow velocity of the material can be accurately controlled to effectively prevent material leakage.

[0015] The water outlet and the barrel mouth are both sealed with a polyethylene aluminum foil composite film.

[0016] The pallet is provided with forklift openings on all four sides. The forklift openings at the front and rear positions of the pallet are smaller than the openings on the left and right sides. The openings are arranged between the second longitudinal beam and the fourth longitudinal beam in the vertical direction, and a third longitudinal beam is arranged between the second longitudinal beam and the fourth longitudinal beam.

[0017] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. In the present invention, the frame serves as the main structure, playing a key supporting and protective role in the entire ton barrel. Steel pipes are carefully processed into crossbeam rings and longitudinal beams through stamping, bending, and other processes, and then welded to the pallet using a medium-frequency DC spot welding process to form a stable frame system. During manufacturing, holes are pre-drilled and assembled, and galvanized, which not only enhances its corrosion resistance but also provides extremely high strength. When the ton barrel is subjected to external forces such as collisions and extrusions during transportation, the frame can effectively disperse and buffer these external forces, preventing direct damage to the inner barrel.

[0019] 2. The pallet design of this invention fully considers convenient transportation. A strict inner barrel manufacturing process is employed, with precise control over the mixing, extrusion, molding, and trimming of the HDPE particles. During extrusion, a high-temperature melt at 160°C and a water circulation system stabilize the temperature, ensuring uniform plasticization of the HDPE particles. After molding, the inner barrel is meticulously trimmed to eliminate defects that affect sealing. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0026] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the present invention is a vertical 550-liter ton barrel that is convenient for canning and transportation, including an inner barrel 1 and a frame 3. The inner barrel 1 includes a barrel mouth 24 arranged at the top and a water outlet 26 at the bottom. The water outlet 26 is arranged inside the arched groove 23. The outer surface of the water outlet 26 is threadedly connected to a barrel cover 25. The water outlet 26 is threadedly connected to one end of a valve 27. A handle 28 is provided above the valve 27. A pallet 12 is provided at the bottom of the inner barrel 1, and a forklift opening 29 is provided on the side of the pallet 12.

[0028] In one embodiment, for the above-mentioned frame 3, the frame 3 includes the first cross beam ring 4 to the seventh cross beam ring 10 arranged on the side of the inner tank 1, and the frame 3 also includes the first longitudinal beam 14 to the eighth longitudinal beam 21 arranged on the side of the inner tank 1, the eighth longitudinal beam 21 is fixedly connected to the label plate 2, the label plate 2 is clamped between the second cross beam ring 5 and the fourth cross beam ring 7 in the vertical direction, and the label plate 2 is clamped between the seventh longitudinal beam 20 and the ninth longitudinal beam 22 in the horizontal direction. The four corners of the bottom of the inner tank 1 are provided with corner guards 13, and the corner guards 13 are fixed between the fifth cross beam ring 8 and the sixth cross beam ring 9. The spacing between the first cross beam ring 4 to the sixth cross beam ring 9 is equal and greater than the spacing between the sixth cross beam ring 9 and the seventh cross beam ring 10.

[0029] In this embodiment, the scientific and reasonable structural design of the frame 3 greatly improves the overall stability of the frame. The regularly distributed crossbeam rings and longitudinal beams are interwoven with each other, providing all-round and uniform support for the inner liner barrel 1, which can better disperse external forces and effectively prevent the inner liner barrel 1 from being damaged due to excessive local forces. At the same time, the corner guards 13 are set at the bottom corners of the inner liner barrel 1, which can effectively buffer the collisions on the bottom corners during transportation and stacking, and further protect the inner liner barrel 1. The fixed position of the label plate 2 is convenient for viewing without affecting the structural strength of the frame 3, making it convenient for users to quickly obtain relevant information about the ton barrel.

[0030] In one embodiment, for the above-mentioned inner barrel 1, the ninth longitudinal beam 22 to the sixth longitudinal beam 19 are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the inner barrel 1, and the first longitudinal beam 14 to the fifth longitudinal beam 18 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the inner barrel 1.

[0031] In one embodiment, for the forklift opening 29 , the forklift opening 29 opened on the side of the pallet 12 is located between the sixth longitudinal beam 19 and the ninth longitudinal beam 22 .

[0032] In this embodiment, the precise positioning of the forklift opening 29 ensures a more even distribution of force during forklift operation. When a forklift is inserted into the opening 29 to transport a ton-sized drum, the stable structural support between the sixth and ninth longitudinal beams 19, 22 effectively prevents deformation of the pallet 12 during the load, ensuring smooth and safe handling. This also further improves the convenience of forklift operation and loading and unloading efficiency.

[0033] In one embodiment, for the label plate 2 , the label plate 2 is used to record production specifications on its surface, and a third crossbeam ring 6 is provided on one side of the label plate 2 .

[0034] In this embodiment, the clearly defined functional design of the label plate 2 facilitates the management and identification of ton barrels. Users can intuitively access important information such as the production specifications of the ton barrels from the label plate 2, facilitating categorized management and quick search during storage and transportation. The third crossbeam ring 6 provides auxiliary support for the label plate 2, ensuring that it resists damage during long-term use and always clearly displays relevant information.

[0035] In one embodiment, for the seventh longitudinal beam 20 , the horizontal distance between the seventh longitudinal beam 20 and the eighth longitudinal beam 21 is greater than the distance between the eighth longitudinal beam 21 to the ninth longitudinal beam 22 and the distance between the seventh longitudinal beam 20 and the sixth longitudinal beam 19 .

[0036] In this embodiment, this specific spacing arrangement optimizes the structural layout of frame 3. The larger spacing provides more suitable installation space for label plate 2, ensuring that it is securely installed and easily visible. Furthermore, the reasonable spacing distribution helps frame 3 better withstand and distribute external forces, enhancing its strength and stability, and thus better protecting inner liner 1.

[0037] In one embodiment, for the valve 27 , the valve 27 is a ball valve or a butterfly valve.

[0038] In this embodiment, both the ball valve and the butterfly valve have good sealing properties and are easy to operate. During the material filling and unloading process, the flow rate and flow velocity of the material can be accurately controlled to effectively prevent material leakage.

[0039] In one embodiment, the water outlet 26 and the barrel opening 24 are both sealed with a polyethylene aluminum foil composite film.

[0040] In one embodiment, for the above-mentioned forklift openings 29, forklift openings 29 are provided on all four sides of the pallet 12. The forklift openings 29 at the front and rear positions of the pallet 12 are smaller than the openings 11 on the left and right sides. The openings 11 are provided in the vertical direction between the second longitudinal beam 15 and the fourth longitudinal beam 17. The third longitudinal beam 16 is provided between the second longitudinal beam 15 and the fourth longitudinal beam 17.

[0041] The present invention describes a vertical 550-liter ton barrel that facilitates canning and transportation. To manufacture the container, HDPE particles are first placed in a mixing device for stirring. This mixing process ensures uniform mixing of the HDPE particles. To ensure consistency and stability during subsequent processing, some gases and volatiles are generated during the stirring process, which are then recycled or discharged. The uniformly mixed HDPE particles then enter an extruder. During the extrusion process, the material melts at a high temperature of 160°C and is propelled forward by the rotation of the screw. The extruder is also connected to a water circulation system to control temperature and other process parameters. The HDPE particles are then melted and plasticized into a continuous profile with a specific shape and size, preparing for subsequent molding. The extrusion process generates gases, possibly other volatiles, and some solid impurities or waste, all of which are separated. The extruded material is then fed into a molding device to form the initial shape of the inner barrel 1. The molten HDPE material is then processed into a finished product that meets the desired shape of the inner barrel 1. The formed inner barrel 1 is trimmed to remove defects such as burrs and flash, making its size and shape more precise and regular, improving the quality and appearance of the inner barrel 1 and making it meet product standards and usage requirements. After trimming, a qualified inner barrel 1 product is obtained, and some trimming waste is also generated. The waste generated during the trimming process and any unqualified products that may be generated in other links are crushed and recycled to reduce waste and lower costs. The crushed material is then used as raw material and can be put back into the mixing link for the next round of processing.

[0042] After the container is produced, the frame 3 is processed by stamping and bending, and then the steel pipe is made into the first crossbeam ring 4 to the seventh crossbeam ring 10 and the first longitudinal beam 14 to the ninth longitudinal beam 22. Then it is bent and flattened using a stamping part so that it can be welded to the pallet 12 using a medium-frequency DC spot welding process. When manufacturing the crossbeam rings and longitudinal beams, holes are pre-drilled, and then the frame 3 structure is assembled, and additional galvanizing is added when manufacturing the frame 3 to reduce corrosion. After the frame 3 is assembled, the frame 3 is placed on the outer periphery of the inner liner barrel 1, and a label plate 2 is installed on the outside of the frame 3 to facilitate identification of the detailed specifications of the container. Finally, the pallet 12 is installed at the bottom of the frame 3 and the inner liner barrel 1, and a forklift can be directly inserted into the forklift port 29 of the pallet 12 for shipping.

[0043] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
