[0031] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0032] As shown by Figures 1 to 3 , it includes the main body 1 of the steel silo. The main body 1 of the steel silo includes a spiral silo body 2. A silo top 3 is fixed at the top of the spiral silo body 2. A conical silo bottom 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the spiral silo body 2. The conical inclination angle of the silo bottom 4 is about 10°. A plurality of symmetrically distributed support legs 5 are fixed at the bottom of the silo bottom 4. The middle parts of the plurality of support legs 5 are fixed with the same intermediate plate 6 to enhance the support strength of the silo bottom 4. A discharge pipe 7 is arranged at the bottom of the silo bottom 4. A feeding pipe 8 passing through the intermediate plate 6 is coaxially fixed below the discharge pipe 7. A bulk head 9 is fixed at one end of the feeding pipe 8 away from the discharge pipe 7. The bulk head 9 is fixed at the bottom of the intermediate plate 6. An automatic valve is arranged in the discharge pipe 7. A manual valve is arranged on the bulk head 9. The powdery material is concentrated in the cylindrical space formed by the spiral silo body 2 and the silo bottom 4. The transport vehicle moves below the bulk head 9. The automatic valve is controlled to open, and the material falls into the bulk head 9. The manual valve is manually opened, and the material enters the vehicle through the bulk head 9;
[0033] In order to avoid excessive load on the structure of the silo bottom 4 caused by the material, a pressure reducing cone 10 is coaxially fixed on the silo bottom 4. The pressure reducing cone 10 includes a conical part and a vertical part. A plurality of circumferentially evenly distributed through holes are opened on the vertical part. The design of the pressure reducing cone 10 helps to change the falling direction of the material and guide the material to disperse around, which can prevent the material from accumulating and blocking at the central part and promote its smooth entry into the subsequent discharge system;
[0034] Due to the large material pressure at the bottom of the steel silo with a capacity of over 1000 tons, the bottom 4 and support legs 5 of the large steel silo are usually made of concrete structure. However, it is difficult to make the formwork for the large concrete structure, and the construction period is long. Especially when the outside temperature is relatively low, it will slow down the entire project cycle. The bottom 4 includes multiple ring beams 11 with different diameters. The ring beams 11 are coaxial with the spiral silo body 2. A plurality of circumferentially distributed inclined beams 12 are fixedly connected to the multiple ring beams 11. Bottom plates are fixedly arranged on both the upper and lower sides of the inclined beams 12 and the ring beams 11. The cross-sections of the ring beams 11 and the inclined beams 12 are both I-shaped. The ring beams 11 and the inclined beams 12 are made of I-beams. The support legs 5 are steel components and are arranged in an inner and outer double layer below the bottom 4 of the silo. Through the arrangement of steel components such as the ring beams 11, the inclined beams 12 and the support legs 5, the concrete structure is replaced, and it is no longer limited by the restrictions of the concrete construction process, which speeds up the construction period of the steel silo. At the same time, both the ring beams 11 and the inclined beams 12 adopt I-beam components, which enhances the support strength of the bottom 4 of the silo;
[0035] In order to achieve the fluidization of powdery or granular materials, a plurality of annular air inflation parts are fixedly arranged on the bottom 4 of the silo. The diameters of the plurality of air inflation parts change in a stepped manner. The air inflation part includes a plurality of circumferentially distributed air inflation boxes 13. The long sides of the air inflation boxes 13 are consistent with the diameter direction of the bottom 4 of the silo. An air inlet pipe 14 is arranged on the air inflation box 13. A plurality of annular air charging pipes 15 are fixedly arranged on the bottom 4 of the silo. The air charging pipes 15 are connected to the adjacent air inlet pipes 14 through pipelines. A Roots blower is arranged on one side of the main body 1 of the steel silo. The air charging pipes 15 are communicated with the Roots blower through pipelines. The air inflation boxes 13 form a gasification area in the steel warehouse, and the fluidization of powdery or granular materials is achieved by injecting air or other gases to promote the homogenization and smooth flow of the materials.
[0036] Reference Figures 4 to 6As shown, considering that the connection method between the existing charging pipe 15 and the charging box 13 is relatively cumbersome, not only is it inconvenient to install, but also it is not easy to maintain and replace when the connecting pipe 18 between the charging pipe 15 and the charging box 13 is damaged. A plurality of annular steel plates 16 are fixed on the bottom of the bin 4, an annular groove 17 is formed between the annular steel plates 16, the charging part is located on the annular steel plates 16, the charging pipe 15 is located in the annular groove 17, and the charging boxes 13 adjacent to each other along the diameter direction of the bottom of the bin 4 are arranged symmetrically in pairs. A plurality of connecting pipes 18 are arranged on the charging pipe 15, the number of the connecting pipes 18 is related to the number of the charging boxes 13 on both sides, and one connecting pipe 18 corresponds to two inlet pipes 14. Threaded grooves are formed in the connecting pipes 18, and a tee pipe 19 is arranged above the connecting pipes 18. The tee pipe 19 includes a main pipe and two branch pipes. A threaded cylinder 20 is threadedly connected to the bottom of the main pipe, and the main pipe and the connecting pipe 18 are connected through the threaded cylinder 20. A plurality of circumferentially evenly distributed wedge-shaped blocks 21 are fixed on the inlet pipe 14, counterbore holes are formed in the wedge-shaped blocks 21, and the wedge-shaped blocks 21 and the inlet pipe 14 are fixed by bolts. Slide cylinders 22 are threadedly connected to both of the two branch pipes. A retaining block matching the wedge-shaped block 21 is arranged in the slide cylinder 22. Through the settings of the tee pipe 19, the wedge-shaped block 21, the slide cylinder 22 and the threaded cylinder 20, etc., the worker only needs to install the tee pipe 19 on the connecting pipe 18. When the charging box 13 is not fixed yet, abut the inlet pipe 14 against the branch pipe, and rotate the slide cylinder 22. The retaining block inside the slide cylinder 22 forms a limit with the wedge-shaped block 21, so as to realize the rapid installation of the tee pipe 19 and the charging box 13;
[0037] In order to facilitate the installation of the slide cylinder 22, the slide cylinder 22 is divided into two symmetrically distributed semi-cylindrical tubes, and the two semi-cylindrical tubes are connected by bolts.

[0042] First, install the inflatable tube 15 in the annular groove 17, and fix the tee 19 and the connecting tube 18 through the threaded cylinder 20;
[0043] Then, connect the two branches of the tee 19 to the inflatable boxes 13 symmetrically distributed on both sides.
