Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flour storage, in particular to a storage tank for flour. Background Art

[0002] Flour is a powder made from wheat. According to the protein content in the flour, it can be divided into high-gluten flour, medium-gluten flour, low-gluten flour and gluten-free flour. Flour (wheat flour) is the staple food in most parts of northern China. There are many varieties of food made from flour with different flavors. Flour is usually stored or transported in bags, but bagged flour has great disadvantages in storage. Bagged flour is prone to flour leakage, and the flour bags cannot be 100% sealed. Flour powder usually gathers on the outside of the flour bags, causing great inconvenience to transportation. Flour bags are only suitable for short-term storage. Since the flour bags themselves do not have moisture-proof properties, the flour is prone to moisture and deterioration when stored for a long time. Therefore, flour cans are usually used for long-term storage of flour.

[0003] In the existing technology, a flour moisture-proof storage tank disclosed as CN217349105U is proposed, comprising a tank body, a lid is arranged on the top of the tank body, wheels are arranged on the bottom of the tank body, an observation strip is arranged on the right side of the front side of the tank body, a carrying strap is arranged on the top of the lid, a spoon is arranged in the middle of the lid, moisture-proof boxes are arranged on the left and right sides of the spoon, an outer cover is arranged on the front side of the moisture-proof box, a filter is arranged on the bottom of the moisture-proof box, buckles A are arranged on the left and right sides of the lid, buckles B are arranged on the top of the left and right sides of the tank body, and sealing strips A are arranged on the top around the tank body. The moisture-proof box is taken out through the outer cover and moisture-proof and moisture-proof items are placed inside it, and then the moisture-proof box is fixed to the inside of the lid by rotating the outer cover, so that the items inside it can play a role in the tank body, so that the flour is dried, and agglomeration and breeding of pests are avoided, which is convenient for long-term storage, and then the tank body is sealed by the sealing strip A to prevent air from entering and prevent the flour from getting damp.

[0004] In order to solve the problem that the storage tank does not have the moisture-proof property and is prone to moisture and agglomeration during the flour storage process, the existing technology adopts a moisture-proof method to handle it. However, the air emitted from the inside of the moisture-proof box will mix with the flour if it is not handled properly, resulting in reduced flour quality. In addition, since the flour is a powdery material, it may easily cause blockage at the discharge port during discharge. At the same time, in the process of storing the flour, it is easy to get damp and the flour will agglomerate. As a result, the agglomerated flour accumulates at the discharge port during the discharge process and is difficult to discharge, which leads to the problem of reduced storage tank utilization efficiency.
