The higher end of the discharge pipe guided by the guide arm is connected to the liquid outlet of the tank truck, and the lower end is connected to the top liquid inlet of the horizontal buffer tank, and the liquid outlet of the tank truck is higher than the liquid inlet of the horizontal buffer tank, and the liquid flows into the horizontal buffer tank through the discharge pipe; a liquid inlet and an exhaust port are provided on one side of the top of the horizontal buffer tank, the liquid inlet is connected to the discharge pipe, and the exhaust port is connected to the exhaust valve by threads; the guide arm guides the discharge pipe in a downward oblique manner, so that the liquid material naturally flows into the horizontal buffer tank in the form of its own weight, and the air in the horizontal buffer tank is discharged through the exhaust valve.

[0021] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the device also includes a liquid level detection sensor, one end of the middle liquid outlet pipe of the horizontal buffer tank is provided with a liquid outlet and connected to the discharge pump, and the detection port at the other end is connected to the liquid level detection sensor by a thread.

[0022] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the device further comprises a drain valve, and a drain port on one side of the lower part of the horizontal buffer tank is connected to the drain valve via threads.

[0023] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, side panels are installed on both sides of the horizontal buffer tank body, and mounting holes are respectively reserved on the side panels and connected with fixing bolts.

[0024] In a specific implementation of the utility model, a bulk liquid material receiving auxiliary device is provided which is easy to manufacture and is comprehensively designed by combining the respective advantages of a receiving arm and a buffer tank.

[0025] The utility model provides a bulk liquid material receiving auxiliary device, the structure of which mainly comprises a guide arm 1, a horizontal buffer tank 2, an exhaust valve 3, a liquid level detection sensor 4, and a drain valve 5.

[0026] In the device, one end of the discharge pipe guided by the guide arm is connected to the tank truck outlet and the other end is connected to the horizontal buffer tank inlet. The tank truck outlet is higher than the horizontal buffer tank inlet, and the guide arm guides the discharge pipe in a downward oblique line.

[0027] The horizontal buffer tank is provided with a liquid inlet and an exhaust port on one side of the top, the liquid inlet is connected to the discharge pipeline, and the exhaust port is connected to the exhaust valve by thread.

[0028] One end of the liquid outlet pipe in the middle of the horizontal buffer tank is provided with a liquid outlet connected to the discharge pump, and the other end of the detection port is connected to the liquid level detection sensor by thread.

[0029] The drain port on one side of the lower part of the horizontal buffer tank body of the horizontal buffer tank is connected to the drain valve by thread.

[0030] The side panels on both sides of the horizontal buffer tank body are reinforced with bending grooves, and are respectively provided with mounting holes connected with fixing bolts at the mounting positions; wherein the side panels are made into a "concave" shape by a bending process to strengthen the entire tank body.

[0031] The utility model uses a guide arm 1 to direct the discharge pipe in a downward oblique line, with the high end connected to the liquid outlet of the tank truck and the low end connected to the liquid inlet at the top of the horizontal buffer tank 2. The liquid flows into the horizontal buffer tank 2 through the discharge pipe, and the air in the horizontal buffer tank 2 is discharged through the exhaust valve 3. The liquid in the horizontal buffer tank 2 is detected by the liquid level detection sensor 4 and sends a pumping signal to the discharge pump. The exhaust valve 2 is closed, and the discharge pump receives the start signal of the liquid level detection sensor 4, and pumps out the liquid in the horizontal buffer tank 1 through the liquid outlet pipe. The internal steady flow structure of the horizontal buffer tank 2 is The structure makes the discharge pump inlet maintain a stable material flow and full liquid level. When the material level in the tank truck is not enough to discharge the material in the full pipe, the gas phase is sucked into the horizontal buffer tank 2, the discharge pump reduces the speed, the flow rate is reduced, and the small amount of liquid remaining in the tank truck and the discharge pipeline will naturally flow the material into the horizontal buffer tank 2 due to the guide arm 1 guiding the discharge pipeline in an oblique downward direction; the liquid in the horizontal buffer tank 2 is lower than the liquid level detected by the liquid level detection sensor 4, and the discharge pump stops running; when maintaining the horizontal buffer tank 2, open the drain valve 5 to discharge all the liquid inside the horizontal buffer tank 2.

[0032] The guide arm is used in combination with a horizontal buffer tank.

[0033] The liquid outlet of the tank truck or storage tank is higher than the liquid inlet of the horizontal buffer tank device, forming a height difference, which is guided downward by the guide arm to the discharge pipe in an oblique line. The residual liquid in the tank truck and the discharge pipe naturally flows into the buffer tank device in the form of its own weight in an oblique line downward through the height difference.

[0034] Between the device and the tank truck, a guide arm is used to guide the unloading pipe diagonally downward, so that the liquid material naturally flows into the horizontal buffer tank device in the form of its own weight, and then the liquid in the horizontal buffer tank is pumped out by the unloading pump, ensuring a stable material flow at the inlet of the unloading pump, solving the problems of unclean liquid material flow in the tank truck, long unloading time, and frequent starting of the unloading pump.
