[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution provided by a specific embodiment of the utility model is as follows:

[0007] A storage tank for food additives, comprising:

[0008] A storage tank, including a first shell and a second shell. The first shell is integrally formed on the outer side of the second shell, and a device for storing food additives is formed by the first shell and the second shell. A sandwich layer is formed between the first shell and the second shell, and the sandwich layer is used to add a medium for cooling the food additives.

[0009] A temperature control component, including a heat conduction rod. The heat conduction rod is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second shell in a penetrating manner. One end of the heat conduction rod extends into the second shell, and a plurality of heat absorption rods are fixedly connected to the side wall of the heat conduction rod extending into the second shell. The heat conduction rod and the heat absorption rods will contact the food additives stored in the second shell, so that the heat conduction rod and the heat absorption rods can adsorb the heat of the food additives, and then export the heat through the heat conduction rod, so that the temperature of the food additives is stable during storage, and the influence of temperature rise on its quality is avoided.

[0010] The drying component includes an installation cylinder, which is fixedly connected to the side walls of the first housing and the second housing in a penetrating manner. A packing cylinder is installed inside the installation cylinder, and a desiccant is arranged inside the packing cylinder. When the stored food additive gets damp, the desiccant will adsorb the moisture in the food additive, thus ensuring the dryness of the food additive. The packing cylinder is used to place the desiccant, and the installation cylinder is used to install the packing cylinder, so that the desiccant in the packing cylinder can adsorb the moisture during the storage of the food additive through the installation cylinder.

[0011] In one or more embodiments of the present invention, a feed port cover is arranged at the top of the second housing to add the food additive into the second housing. A feed port is installed on the feed port cover, and the feed port is used to seal the feed port cover.

The heat conducted by the heat conducting rod will be transferred in the interlayer through the heat transfer block.

[0015] In one or more embodiments of the present invention, an endothermic medium is arranged in the interlayer between the first housing and the second housing, so that the heat conducted by the heat conducting rod will be adsorbed by the endothermic medium, and thus the heat is eliminated through the endothermic medium. An antiseptic is added to the endothermic medium. Since the endothermic medium needs to exist in the interlayer for a long time, an antiseptic is required to prevent the endothermic medium from deteriorating during use.

[0016] In one or more embodiments of the present invention, a liquid inlet component is arranged at the top of the interlayer between the first housing and the second housing, and the endothermic medium is replenished into the interlayer through the liquid inlet component.

Detailed implementation manners

[0029] In order to enable those skilled in the art of the present technology to better understand the technical solutions in the present utility model, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model with reference to 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 of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in 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.

[0030] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, a storage tank for food additives in an embodiment of the present utility model includes a storage tank 1, a temperature control assembly 2 and a drying assembly 3.

[0031] As Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the storage tank 1 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12. The first housing 11 is integrally formed on the outer side of the second housing 12. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 form a device for storing food additives. A sandwich layer is formed between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, and the sandwich layer is used to add a medium for cooling the food additives.

[0032] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, a feed inlet cover 14 is provided at the top of the second housing 12 to add food additives into the second housing 12. A feed inlet 13 is installed on the feed inlet cover 14, and the feed inlet 13 is used for sealing the feed inlet cover 14.

[0033] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, a discharge outlet 15 is provided at the bottom of the second housing 12, and the stored food additives are discharged through the discharge outlet 15. A discharge outlet cover 16 is installed on the discharge outlet 15, and the discharge outlet cover 16 is used for sealing the discharge outlet 15.

[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the temperature control assembly 2 includes a heat-conducting rod 21, which is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second shell 12 in a penetrating manner, and one end of the heat-conducting rod 21 extends into the second shell 12. A plurality of heat-absorbing rods 22 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the heat-conducting rod 21 extending into the second shell 12. The heat-conducting rod 21 and the heat-absorbing rod 22 will contact the food additives stored in the second shell 12, so that the heat-conducting rod 21 and the heat-absorbing rod 22 can absorb the heat of the food additives, and then conduct the heat through the heat-conducting rod 21, so that the temperature of the food additives is stable when stored, and the temperature recovery is prevented from affecting its quality.

[0035] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of heat-conducting rods 21 are provided, and the plurality of heat-conducting rods 21 are arranged in a manner of being inclined downward from the outer side of the second shell 12 toward the center, so that the heat-conducting rods 21 can better conduct heat of the food additives.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, one end of the heat conducting rod 21 is placed in the interlayer between the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, and the end of the heat conducting rod 21 placed in the interlayer is fixedly connected to the heat transfer block 23, and the heat conducted by the heat conducting rod 21 will be transferred in the interlayer through the heat transfer block 23.

[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a heat absorbing medium 24 is disposed in the interlayer between the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, so that the heat conducted by the heat conducting rod 21 will be absorbed by the heat absorbing medium 24, and the heat is eliminated by the heat absorbing medium 24. A preservative is added to the heat absorbing medium 24, and since the heat absorbing medium 24 needs to exist in the interlayer for a long time, the preservative is required to prevent the heat absorbing medium 24 from deteriorating during use.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a liquid inlet assembly 25 is provided at the top of the interlayer between the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, and a heat absorbing medium 24 is replenished into the interlayer through the liquid inlet assembly 25. A liquid discharge assembly 26 is provided at the bottom of the interlayer, and the heat absorbing medium 24 can be discharged and replaced through the liquid discharge assembly 26.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 5As shown in the figure, the drying assembly 3 includes an installation cylinder 31 which is fixedly connected to the side walls of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 in a penetrating manner. A packing cylinder 32 is installed inside the installation cylinder 31, and a desiccant 34 is arranged inside the packing cylinder 32. When the stored food additive gets damp, the desiccant 34 will adsorb the moisture in the food additive, thus ensuring the dryness of the food additive. The packing cylinder 32 is used to place the desiccant 34, and the installation cylinder 31 is used to install the packing cylinder 32, so that the desiccant 34 can adsorb the moisture during the storage of the food additive through the installation cylinder 31.

[0040] As Figures 1 to 4 shown in the figure, there are multiple installation cylinders 31 which are respectively arranged at positions close to the feed inlet 13 and the discharge outlet 15. Since the outside air will enter when the food additive is added through the feed inlet 13 and discharged through the discharge outlet 15, the food additive at positions close to the feed inlet 13 and the discharge outlet 15 is prone to getting damp. Therefore, the installation cylinders 31 are arranged at positions close to the feed inlet 13 and the discharge outlet 15 to facilitate the treatment of moisture.

[0041] As Figure 2 and Figure 4 shown in the figure, one end of the installation cylinder 31 extends into the second housing 12, and the other end of the installation cylinder 31 is placed outside the first housing 11. A plurality of through holes 33 are opened on the side wall of the installation cylinder 31 inside the second housing 12 and on the side wall of the packing cylinder 32. Under the action of the through holes 33, the desiccant and the moisture can come into contact, thus realizing the adsorption of the moisture.

[0042] As Figures 1 to 5 shown in the figure, a sealing cover 35 is connected to the end of the installation cylinder 31 outside the second housing 12 to prevent the outside air from contacting the desiccant 34. A plurality of fins 36 are arranged on the side wall of the installation cylinder 31 in the sandwich between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, so that the installation cylinder 31 can not only install the packing cylinder 32 but also transfer heat, and the heat transferred by the installation cylinder 31 is released through the fins 36.

[0043] During use, when the food additive is stored in the storage tank, through the contact of the heat conduction rod 21 and the heat absorption rod 22 with the food additive, the heat generated by the food additive will be adsorbed by the heat conduction rod 21 and the heat absorption rod 22, and then transferred to the heat transfer block 23 through the heat conduction rod 21. Finally, the heat will be adsorbed by the heat absorption medium 24, so that the temperature of the food additive in the storage tank is stable; when the outside air enters due to feeding or discharging in the storage tank, the moisture in the air will be adsorbed by the desiccant 34 through the through holes 33, thus preventing the food additive from getting damp; making the temperature of the food additive stable in the storage tank without getting damp, and further ensuring that the quality of the food additive is not affected by temperature and humidity.

[0044] For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and the present utility model can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present utility model. Therefore, from any point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive.

Therefore, all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are intended to be embraced within the present utility model. Any reference signs in the claims should not be construed as limiting the claims involved.

This narrative manner of the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
