Specific embodiments
[0027] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a moisture-proof storage device for capsule materials, including a storage tank 1 and a temperature and humidity sensor 4 arranged inside the storage tank 1, and further including:
[0029] The storage tank 1 includes:
[0030] The outer tank 11;
[0031] The inner tank 13, arranged inside the outer tank 11;
[0032] The mixing unit 2, arranged inside the inner tank 13, for mixing the materials inside the inner tank 13;
[0033] The drying unit 3, arranged between the inner tank 13 and the outer tank 11, for drying the materials inside the inner tank 13;
[0034] The heating plate 5, arranged on the inner tank 13, for heating the materials inside the inner tank 13;
[0035] The exhaust pipe 6, arranged at the upper part of the inner tank 13, for discharging the moisture inside the inner tank 13.
[0036] It should be noted that during operation, the capsule raw materials are added to the interior of the inner tank 13 for storage. Then, the temperature and humidity sensor 4 extends into the interior of the inner tank 13, enabling real-time monitoring of the temperature and humidity of the capsule raw materials inside the inner tank 13. When the humidity sensor 4 detects that the humidity inside the inner tank 13 exceeds the set value, it transmits a signal to the PLC controller. Subsequently, the PLC controller turns on the heating plate 5 and the mixing unit 2 to heat and stir the capsule raw materials inside the tank 13. Then, the evaporated gas is discharged from the exhaust pipe 6, which can maintain the capsule raw materials inside the inner tank 13 within the set humidity range, keeping the interior of the inner tank 13 in a dry environment, thereby effectively preventing the materials from getting damp or deteriorating. By setting up this device, the storage device can be used in various environments, improving the overall performance.
[0037] In one embodiment, the mixing unit 2 includes a motor 21 fixed to the upper end of the inner tank 13, a rotating shaft 22 fixed to the power output end of the motor 21 and passing through the inner tank 13, and a scraper 23 fixed to the rotating shaft 22. A mixing blade 24 is fixed to the lower end of the rotating shaft 22.
[0038] With this design, referring to Figure 2 and Figures 4-5 , by driving the rotating shaft 22 and the scraper 23 to rotate through the motor 21, the capsule raw materials in the inner tank can be effectively mixed, and the materials inside the inner tank 13 can be quickly and evenly mixed, enabling the heating plate 5 to uniformly heat the capsule raw materials inside the inner tank 13, improving the drying efficiency of the capsule materials. The design of the mixing blade plate 24 can effectively prevent the deposition and adhesion of the capsule raw materials on the wall of the inner tank 13.
[0039] In one embodiment, the drying unit 3 includes a storage box 32 fixed between the inner tank 13 and the outer tank 11, a breathable plate 31 provided on the inner tank 13, and a box cover 33 fixed to the storage box 32. The interior of the storage box 32 is used to store desiccants.
[0040] With this design, referring to Figure 2 and Figures 4-5 , by providing the breathable plate 31 on the inner tank 13, air circulation can be ensured, enabling the desiccants to more effectively absorb the moisture inside the inner tank 13. At the same time, multiple storage boxes 32 are evenly distributed between the inner tank 13 and the outer tank 11, further enhancing the drying effect. The design of the box cover 33 makes it simple and convenient to replace the desiccants. Once the desiccants are saturated, they can be easily taken out and replaced with new ones, effectively absorbing and removing the moisture that may cause product deterioration, thereby extending the product shelf life.
[0041] In one embodiment, an exhaust port 1301 is provided at the position of the inner tank 13 corresponding to the exhaust pipe 6, and a head 61 is provided at the upper end of the exhaust pipe 6.
[0042] With this design, referring to Figure 3 , moisture may be generated inside the inner tank 13 due to temperature changes or natural release during material storage. The design of the exhaust port 1301 and the exhaust pipe 6 allows this moisture to be effectively guided to the outside of the device, preventing moisture from accumulating in the inner tank 13, thus maintaining the dryness of the internal environment. The design of the head 61 prevents external dust, impurities or other pollutants from entering the inner tank 13 through the exhaust pipe 6 while discharging moisture, ensuring the purity and quality of the stored materials.
[0043] In one embodiment, support legs 15 are fixed to the lower end of the outer tank 11, a discharge port 14 is provided in the middle of the lower end of the inner tank 13, a cavity 1101 is formed between the inner tank 13 and the outer tank 11, and a fixed bracket 1102 is fixed between the inner tank 13 and the outer tank 11.
[0044] With this design, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the support legs 15 fixed to the lower end of the outer tank 11 provide stable support for the entire device, ensuring the stability of the equipment during operation or static state. This design prevents tilting or shaking caused by uneven ground or external forces, thus protecting the tank body and the materials stored inside. The fixed bracket 1102 fixed between the inner tank 13 and the outer tank 11 enhances the structural strength of the entire device, and the cavity 1101 formed between the inner tank 13 and the outer tank 11 by the fixed bracket 1102 can play a role in heat insulation and heat preservation, helping to maintain the temperature stability of the materials in the inner tank 13. When taking materials, the discharge port 14 is opened, and the capsule raw materials are discharged from the discharge port 14.
[0045] In one embodiment, a tank door 12 is provided at the upper end of the inner tank 13, and lifting lugs 16 are symmetrically fixed to the upper end of the inner tank 13.
[0046] With this design, referring to Figure 1 and Figures 4-5 , the setting of the tank door 12 allows the operator to conveniently open and close the inner tank 13 for loading materials and daily inspection and maintenance of the equipment. And the tank door 12 is equipped with a safety locking device to ensure that the tank door 12 will not be accidentally opened during the operation of the equipment, thus ensuring the safety of the operator and the equipment. The design of the lifting lugs 16 allows the inner tank 13 to be conveniently transported and installed by lifting equipment.
