[0028] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present utility model are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0029] The terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the specification and claims of the present invention are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or apparatus comprising a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or apparatuses.

[0030] The embodiment of the utility model provides a low-temperature liquid storage tank, including a storage tank body, a temperature control component and an air pressure monitoring component; the temperature inside the storage tank body can be controlled by the temperature control component to prevent the temperature inside the storage tank body from being too high or too low and exceeding a set temperature range, and the air pressure inside the storage tank body can be monitored by the air pressure monitoring component, and when the air pressure is not within the set range, a warning reminder can be issued.

[0031] The following is a detailed description of the various structures of the cryogenic liquid storage tank provided in the embodiment of the utility model, as well as the positional relationship and connection relationship between the various structures, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the tank body 1 includes a chamber in which a liquid storage bag 9 for storing liquid is provided. The chamber of the tank body 1 is inflated by the air pressure component 3 to change the air pressure in the chamber, and the liquid storage bag 9 is squeezed by the change in air pressure.

[0033] For example, the air pressure component 3 is connected to the top of the tank body 1 and is used to deliver gas into the cavity. For example, the air pressure component 3 includes an air pressure pump 302 and an air pressure pipe 301; the top of the tank body 1 includes an air intake pipe 2 connected to the cavity, one end of the air pressure pipe 301 is connected to the air pressure pump 302, and the other end is connected to the air intake pipe 2. For example, the air intake pipe 2 can be an existing structure, that is, the air intake operation is performed by using the existing air pipe of the tank body 1, so as to achieve sharing with the air pressure pipe 301.

[0034] When the chamber needs to be pressurized, the air pressure pump 302 is started, and the air pressure pump 302 and the air pressure pipe 301 are used to transport gas into the chamber, thereby achieving the effect of pressurization. The air pressure component 3 is small in size and does not occupy too much extra area, and the air pressure pump 302 can cooperate with the air pressure monitoring component 4 to realize automatic adjustment of the air pressure, that is, by automatically controlling the start and stop of the air pressure pump 302, the pressure value in the chamber is adjusted, thereby avoiding the problem of cumbersome manual operation and failure to increase pressure in time, and low work efficiency. The specific working form of the air pressure detection component is described below.

[0035] In the embodiment of the utility model, the temperature control assembly 6 includes a temperature controller 601, a temperature adjustment element 602 and a battery 603. The temperature controller 601 is connected to the battery 603, and the battery 603 is used for power supply. The temperature controller 601 is arranged outside the storage tank body 1, and the temperature adjustment element 602 is arranged in the chamber, and the temperature in the chamber is adjusted by the temperature adjustment element 602. For example, the temperature controller 601 includes a wire controller, and the wire controller includes buttons, such as on / off, mode selection, heating or cooling, etc., which is arranged outside the storage tank body 1 to facilitate the operation of the operator.

[0036] The temperature regulating element 602 can heat or cool the chamber. For example, the low-temperature liquid storage tank is greatly affected by the environment. When the outside temperature is too low, it needs to be heated. On the contrary, when the outside temperature is too high, it needs to be cooled. There are many factors affecting the temperature in the chamber of the low-temperature liquid storage tank, and the embodiments of the utility model will not give examples one by one.

[0037] For example, the temperature regulating element 602 is cylindrical or semi-enclosed, and the temperature regulating element 602 is surrounded by the outside of the liquid storage capsule 9; for example, the temperature regulating element 602 has a certain height, such as its height is the same as or similar to the height of the liquid storage capsule 9, so that the temperature of each position of the liquid storage capsule 9 can be quickly adjusted.

[0038] For example, the temperature adjustment element 602 includes a heating plate and / or a cooling plate, that is, the temperature adjustment element 602 can be provided with a heating plate alone, a cooling plate alone, or a heating plate and a cooling plate at the same time, such as the heating plate and the cooling plate are arranged in layers up and down or arranged left and right, or arranged crosswise. For example, the heating plate includes a heating wire, a heating rod, etc., and the cooling plate is a semiconductor cooling plate or a condenser, etc.

[0039] Continue to refer Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the cryogenic liquid storage tank also includes an air pressure monitoring component 4, which includes an air pressure detection element 402, an alarm device 401 and a controller; the air pressure detection element 402 and the alarm device 401 are respectively connected to the controller, the air pressure detection element 402 is used to obtain the pressure value of the storage tank body 1, and the alarm device 401 is used to send an alarm signal.

[0040] For example, the air pressure detection element 402 is an air pressure detection sensor, which obtains the air pressure information in the chamber in real time or periodically, and transmits the air pressure information to the controller. The controller determines whether to start the warning component according to the air pressure information.

[0041] For example, the controller stores an air pressure threshold. When the acquired air pressure information exceeds the threshold (higher or lower), the controller activates the warning device 401 and sends an alarm signal through the warning device 401 to inform the staff of the abnormal air pressure in time.

[0042] For example, the warning device 401 includes a sound alarm and / or a photoelectric alarm, and can send out an alarm signal through a sound prompt, or send out an alarm signal through a photoelectric flash, or send out an alarm signal through sound and photoelectric flash at the same time.

[0043] For example, a barometer 5 is also provided on the outside of the storage tank body 1. The barometer 5 displays the current air pressure value in the chamber of the storage tank body 1 for observation by the staff, and can provide accurate and clear air pressure information.

[0044] Continue to refer Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in the embodiment of the utility model, the liquid storage bag 9 includes a water inlet component 7 and a water outlet component 8; the water inlet component 7 includes a water inlet pipe 701, the water inlet pipe 701 is connected to the liquid storage bag 9, and the water inlet of the water inlet pipe 701 is arranged at the top of the storage tank body 1; the water outlet component 8 is located at the bottom of the storage tank body 1.

[0045] For example, the water inlet of the water inlet pipe 701 is provided with threads, and the water inlet is connected with the water inlet threads through the sealing cover 702 .

[0046] For example, the water outlet assembly 8 includes a water outlet pipe 801 and a sealing cover 802, the water outlet pipe 801 is connected to the liquid storage capsule 9, and the water outlet of the water outlet pipe 801 is arranged at the bottom of the storage tank body 1, and the sealing cover 802 is used to block the water outlet of the water outlet pipe 801. The sealing cover 802 has a good sealing effect. When the water outlet pipe 801 is not in use, the water outlet can be blocked by the sealing cover 802 to prevent water leakage. Or, for example, the water outlet assembly 8 includes a drainage pipe 803 and a flow control valve 804, the drainage pipe 803 is connected to the liquid storage capsule 9, and the water outlet of the drainage pipe 803 is arranged at the bottom of the storage tank body 1, and the flow control valve 804 is arranged on the drainage pipe 803 located outside the storage tank body 1. The flow control valve 804 can adjust the opening angle, thereby controlling the liquid flow rate of the water outlet.

[0047] In the embodiment of the utility model, the side wall of the storage tank body 1 is coated with a protective layer 10, and the protective layer 10 has a protective effect on the storage tank body 1, such as the protective layer 10 is a metal protective layer 10 with a certain thickness. A lifting ring 11 is provided at the top of the storage tank body 1, and when the storage tank body 1 is moved, the moving operation is performed through the lifting ring 11. A supporting leg 12 is provided at the bottom of the storage tank body 1, which is used to support the storage tank body 1 to set the height. A water outlet component 8 is provided at the bottom of the storage tank body 1, or other components, such as an air pressure pump 302, can be placed at the bottom of the storage tank body 1 to reduce the excessive space occupied by other components.

[0048] The embodiment of the utility model provides a cryogenic liquid storage tank. When in use, the temperature in the chamber of the storage tank body 1 can be adjusted through the temperature control component 6, that is, the temperature in the chamber is adjusted to a set temperature range through the temperature adjustment element 602, and the temperature in the chamber is ensured to be maintained within the temperature range; and air pressure monitoring can also be performed, and when the air pressure in the chamber exceeds the set pressure range, an alarm is issued.
