Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food storage, in particular to a storage tank for food storage. Background Art
[0002] In terms of storage technology, it is usually stored in the air at room temperature. Some use refrigeration technology, but the cost is high. Some use vacuum packaging, which only reduces the amount of air, and there is still oxygen in it. The effect of heat insulation and light shielding is not obvious. Most of them are small packages, and only compact foods can be stored. Some use cans and glass bottles for packaging, but the cost is high, and it cannot effectively solve the problem of heat insulation, and it is difficult to reuse.
[0003] After searching in the public (announcement) number: CN216103802 U, an agricultural grain storage tank is disclosed, including a storage tank, an isolation plate fixedly connected between the front and rear inner walls of the storage tank, a motor fixedly installed on the left side of the storage tank, the right end of the output shaft of the motor fixedly connected to the stirring shaft, the stirring shaft penetrates the isolation plate and is rotatably connected between the left and right side walls of the storage tank, the outer side of the stirring shaft is fixedly connected to a stirring fan, a refrigerator is fixedly installed in the bottom plate cavity of the storage tank, the refrigerator is connected to the bottom end of the isolation plate, the rear side of the storage tank is slidably connected to a sampling device, the storage tank and the top of the isolation plate are slidably connected to a storage tank sliding cover, the low temperature is transferred to the partition through cooling by the refrigerator, the heat generated during grain storage is absorbed by the partition, the grain is stored in a low temperature environment for a long time to inhibit the growth of pests and microorganisms, and the grain is stirred by the stirring fan, so that the grain can dissipate heat evenly to prevent local excessive temperature from causing pests and mildew.
[0004] Although the above scheme absorbs the heat generated during grain storage through the partition, so that the grain is stored in a low temperature environment for a long time to inhibit the growth of pests and microorganisms, the oxygen in the tank is not completely discharged during the grain storage process. After a period of storage, the microorganisms, pests, etc. in the grain will use oxygen for aerobic activities, affecting the storage quality of the food, and the dependence on electricity is large. Therefore, we propose a storage tank for food storage. Utility Model Content
[0005] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a storage tank for food storage, which solves the problem that the oxygen in the tank is not completely discharged during the food storage process.

[0011] Furthermore, a partition is provided on the top of the tank body, and the partition is filled with ice cubes or ice bags.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] In the utility model, by providing the bottom air port and the side air port, when it is necessary to store food, the tank body is turned over with the bottom material port and the universal wheel facing upwards, the food is loaded into the tank body from the bottom material port, and an inflation tube is installed at the side air port. At this time, air is inflated from the side air port, and the gas passes through a one-way valve. When storing solid food, oxygen is discharged from the bottom air port according to the characteristic that nitrogen is lighter than oxygen, and when storing liquid food, according to Henry's law. When the oxygen concentration of the gas at the outlet of the bottom air port drops to a certain standard, the bottom air port and the side air port are sealed with a plug, and then the tank body is turned over again with the bottom material port facing downwards for storage, thereby realizing anaerobic storage of food, avoiding microorganisms, pests and diseases in the food from using oxygen for aerobic activities, and ensuring the storage quality of the food.

[0018] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0019] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the utility model includes a tank body 1, the bottom and side of the tank body 1 are both provided with a bottom material port 2 and a side material port 3, the bottom material port 2 and the side material port 3 are both provided with a bottom cover 4 and a side cover 5, the bottom cover 4 is penetrated with a bottom air port 7, the side cover 5 is penetrated with a side air port 6, the inner walls of the bottom air port 7 and the side air port 6 are both provided with internal threads, and the bottom air port 7 and the side air port 6 are both connected with the external threads of the plug 8 through the internal threads, and also include an inner air pipe 15 placed in the tank body 1 and connected to one end of the side air port 6, the air inlet pipe extends to the center position of the top of the tank body 1, and the side cover 5 is also provided with a temperature gauge 9 and a pressure gauge 10, the temperature gauge 9 is connected to the temperature sensor 17 arranged in the side cover 5, the pressure gauge 10 is connected to the inside of the tank body 1 through a pipeline 11 penetrating the side cover 5, and a pressure relief valve 12 is also provided on the pipeline 11, and a protective cover 18 is provided at the end of the pipeline 11 located in the tank body 1, a one-way valve 16 is provided at the connection between the side air port 6 and the inner air pipe 15, the end of the inner air pipe 15, the end of the bottom air port 7 located in the tank body 1 and the connecting end of the pressure gauge and the tank body are all provided with a protective cover 18, and a locking universal wheel 13 is provided at the bottom of the tank body 1.
[0020] The tank body 1 of the utility model is made of a single layer or double layer or more material, and is filled with heat insulating material in the middle as needed to achieve the purposes of moisture-proof, heat-insulating, light-shielding, airtight, not easy to deform, and environmentally friendly. A partition 14 is provided on the top of the tank body 1, and the partition 14 is filled with ice cubes or ice bags. When the tank body 1 stores food that needs to be stored at a low temperature, such as meat, seafood, etc., ice cubes or ice bags are placed in the partition 14, and physical cooling is performed using the principle of heat conduction.
[0021] When storing liquid food, the utility model has the inlet and outlet both at the bottom material port 2, and the tank body 1 is turned over so that the bottom material port 2 faces upwards for loading or unloading (the bottom material port 2 can also be turned downwards for unloading using a conduit during unloading). When the food is loaded, the bottom cover 4 is covered, and an air charging pipe is connected to the side air port 6. The gas passes through the one-way valve 16, and according to Henry's law, oxygen is discharged from the bottom air port 7.

[0022] When storing solid food, the present invention is different from storing liquid food in that the material is fed from the bottom material port 2 and discharged from the side material port 3. When inflating, air is taken in from the bottom air port 7 and exhausted from the side air port 6. Oxygen is discharged based on the characteristic that nitrogen is lighter than oxygen. Therefore, the difference in structure is that the one-way valve 16 at the side air port 6 can be installed at the exhaust port 7.
