Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an aluminum alloy operation platform for a silo. Background Art

[0002] An aluminum alloy silo is an important equipment in chemical production. It is not only used for storing process materials (raw materials, products, intermediate products, etc.) and auxiliary materials (such as catalysts, etc.), but also for homogenizing the material properties, balancing the process logistics, and storing materials emergently in case of accidents.

[0003] The traditional aluminum silo mainly uses plates to make the silo top as the operation platform, and a safety fence is set around the conical top. The strength of this silo top platform is relatively poor, and several aluminum profiles often need to be set for reinforcement, resulting in a not very high utilization rate. Moreover, it is very inconvenient and dangerous for people to walk on it. At the same time, due to the certain slope of the conical top, it is very inconvenient for people to carry out high-altitude operations and inspections and repairs on it, and there are potential safety hazards. Therefore, an aluminum alloy operation platform for a silo is proposed to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an aluminum alloy operation platform for a silo to overcome the existing defects, which improves the effective space, operation convenience and safety of the equipment top platform.

[0005] The technical solution to achieve the above purpose is: an aluminum alloy operation platform for a silo, including a silo cylinder body, the upper end of the silo cylinder body is connected to a silo conical top, the upper end of the silo conical top is connected to an operation platform, and a safety fence is connected around the edge of the operation platform;

[0006] The operation platform is made of aluminum.

[0007] Preferably, a platform connection aisle is connected to the opposite surfaces of two operation platforms on every two adjacent silo cylinder bodies, and the opposite surfaces of the two platform connection aisles are connected; a aisle diagonal brace is connected to the lower end surface of each platform connection aisle, and the lower end surface of the aisle diagonal brace is connected to the side wall of the silo cylinder body.

[0008] Preferably, the operation platform is welded to the silo conical top.

[0009] Preferably, the platform connection aisle is made of aluminum.

[0010] Multiple reinforcing ribs are connected to the surface of the silo conical top.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: The aluminum alloy operating platform for this silo uses aluminum profiles as the main material, and can be assembled and welded into a formed flat top platform of appropriate size according to actual needs and welded to the conical top of the silo. No additional reinforcing ribs are required, which increases the operating space of the platform, makes the structure simpler and the operation safer. The platform connecting aisle between silos uses an aluminum platform and handrails, which reduces the weight, increases the manufacturing convenience and saves costs.

[0017] Next, the technical solutions of the present utility model will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present utility model. In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third" are only used for descriptive purposes and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0018] Next, the present utility model will be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0019] As Figures 1-4 shown, an aluminum alloy operating platform for a silo includes a silo cylinder 1, the upper end of the silo cylinder 1 is connected to a silo conical top 2, the upper end of the silo conical top 2 is connected to an operating platform 3, and a safety fence 4 is connected around the edge of the operating platform 3; the operating platform 3 is made of aluminum. The operating platform 3 is welded and connected to the silo conical top 2. A plurality of reinforcing ribs 7 are connected to the surface of the silo conical top 2.

[0020] Specifically, when the size of the silo cylinder 1 is small, the silo conical top 2 can be directly cancelled. The operation platform 3 (the platform size is adjusted according to the diameter of the silo cylinder) is directly welded to the silo cylinder 1, and then a safety fence 4 is set around the operation platform 3. In this case, the overall structure of the silo is simple, saving materials, shortening the construction period, reducing the on-site construction difficulty, and improving work efficiency; when the size of the silo cylinder 1 is large, the form of combining the silo conical top 2 and the operation platform 3 is adopted, which not only improves the safety of the operation platform, but also increases the operation space and improves the operation convenience.

[0021] As Figure 3 、 4 shown, the opposite faces of two operation platforms 3 on every two adjacent silo cylinders 1 are connected by a platform connecting aisle 5, and the opposite faces of the two platform connecting aisles 5 are connected; the lower end face of each platform connecting aisle 5 is connected to an aisle diagonal brace 6, and the lower end face of the aisle diagonal brace 6 is connected to the side wall of the silo cylinder 1. The platform connecting aisle 5 is made of aluminum.

[0022] Specifically, platform connecting aisles 5 are often required to be set between silos. At this time, only pre-welded parts need to be welded on the operation platform 3 to fix the platform connecting aisle 5, and at the same time, an aisle diagonal brace 6 is connected between the silo cylinder 1 and the platform connecting aisle 5 to ensure the strength and safety of the platform connecting aisle 5.

[0023] The aluminum alloy operation platform of this silo uses aluminum profiles directly produced by a mold as its base material, and then multiple aluminum profiles are assembled and welded into formed platforms of different sizes and welded to the silo top; because it is mold-formed, through the special structural design of the mold, a better section modulus can be generated in the same space, improving the use strength. At the same time, the formed platform after assembly welding does not need to be strengthened with aluminum profiles anymore, and the platform has a larger space, improving the utilization rate and making up for various deficiencies of the conical platform at the same time.

[0024] The production of aluminum profiles includes three processes: melting and casting, extrusion, and anodizing.

[0025] Melting and casting is the primary process for the production of formed aluminum bars. Melting is a process of adding the prepared raw materials into a melting furnace for melting according to the process requirements, and effectively removing the impurities and gases in the melt through degassing and slag removal refining means.

[0026] Extrusion is the forming means of formed aluminum bars. First, according to the cross-section design of the formed aluminum bar, a mold is manufactured, and the heated round casting rod is extruded from the mold by an extruder to form. The surface corrosion resistance of the extruded formed aluminum bar is not strong, and it must be surface-treated by anodic oxidation to enhance the corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and appearance beauty of the aluminum bar.

[0027] Anodizing treatment means that under certain process conditions, anodic oxidation occurs on the surface of the substrate to form a dense, porous and strongly adsorptive Al2O3 film layer. After the above treatment processes, the produced aluminum bars meet the section modulus and their mechanical properties are also improved.

[0028] In summary, the aluminum alloy operating platform for this silo has better mechanical properties, greatly improving the utilization rate of the platform; at the same time, the flat top has no slope, making the operation site more convenient and safe, thus making up for the deficiencies of the previous conical platform.

[0029] The aluminum alloy operating platform for this silo uses aluminum profiles as the main material and can be welded into a formed flat-top platform of appropriate size according to actual needs and welded to the conical top of the silo. No additional stiffeners are required, increasing the operating space of the platform, making the structure simpler and the operation safer. The platform connecting aisle between silos uses an aluminum platform and handrails, reducing the weight, increasing the manufacturing convenience and saving costs.

[0030] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
