Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of material storage, in particular to a silo conical cylinder with a novel flange connection structure. Background Technique
[0002] Silos can be used to store materials such as cement and loose solids. It can save storage land, facilitate the implementation of mechanized and automated loading and unloading, reduce labor intensity, improve labor productivity, and reduce material loss and environmental pollution caused by dust. Currently, the silo is generally designed as an integral structure with a storage bin at the upper part, legs at the lower part, and a ladder on the side through processes such as welding. The storage bin includes a conical cylinder at the top, and the conical cylinder is generally welded by multiple connecting units.
[0003] When the multiple connecting units of the existing conical cylinder are spliced, they are generally welded by flange plates at the splicing position. When the flange plates are welded at different positions of the conical cylinder, the flange plates may be divided into several pieces and welded step by step at different positions. This often leads to a significant increase in the overall welding process, resulting in problems such as high cost, low efficiency, and high labor intensity of workers. At the same time, the multi-piece structure and multiple welds will damage the steel, affecting the safety of the silo during use.
[0004] In view of this, the applicant of the present invention invented a silo conical cylinder with a novel flange connection structure that can effectively ensure the strength of the overall silo and improve the overall production efficiency of the silo at the same time.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , a silo cone with a novel flange connection structure, including several connection units 10. Each connection unit 10 includes an upper cover plate 11, a step plate 12, a peripheral plate 13, a cone plate 14, a base bottom plate 15, and two integrally formed flange plates 16 located on both sides of the cone plate 14 respectively. The base bottom plate 15 is located at the bottom for supporting the flange plates 16, the peripheral plate 13, and the cone plate 14; every two adjacent base bottom plates 15 are welded on the side to form a horizontal circular ring belt; several cone plates 14 are obliquely surrounded and fixed inside the circular ring belt; a flange plate 16 is fixed on both sides of each cone plate 14, and every two cone plates 14 are detachably connected through the two flange plates 16 to form a cone; a peripheral plate 13 vertically arranged on the base bottom plate 15 and located outside the cone plate 14 is fixed between the two flange plates 16 in each connection unit 10. The step plate 12 is horizontally fixed above the peripheral plate 13, and the inner side of the step plate 12 abuts against the outer side surface of the cone plate 14; the upper cover plate 11 is horizontally arranged above the cone plate 14.
[0027] Through the splicing structure of several connecting units 10, the overall prefabricated production of the silo cone can be realized, improving the overall production efficiency and reducing the transportation difficulty by separately packaging each component of the connecting unit 10. At the same time, the integrally formed flange plate 16 plays a crucial supporting and connecting role for each other component of the connecting unit 10, and can effectively form a stable whole by the flange plate 16 for the cone plate 14, the step plate 12, the peripheral plate 13, the foundation bottom plate 15 and the upper cover plate 11, while ensuring that its welding process is simple enough.
[0028] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the flange plate 16 includes an integrally formed outer connecting portion 161, a triangular sealing plate portion 162 and an inner connecting portion 163. The outer connecting portion 161 protrudes outwardly from the outer surface formed by the cone plate 14, the step plate 12 and the peripheral plate 13, and the inner connecting portion 163 protrudes inwardly from the inner surface formed by the cone plate 14. The triangular sealing plate portion 162 is formed in the closed area inside the outer connecting portion 161 and the inner connecting portion 163.
[0029] The overall flange plate 16 is composed of three integrally formed parts. Through the welding of the outer connecting portion 161 with the cone plate 14, the step plate 12 and the peripheral plate 13, the stable connection of the four is realized. Through the welding of the inner connecting portion 163 with the cone plate 14, the stable connection of the two is realized again. The overall strength of the outer connecting portion 161 and the inner connecting portion 163 is ensured by the triangular sealing plate portion 162; finally, the stable connection between multiple connecting units 10 is realized through the flange plates 16 in different connecting units 10.
[0030] Specifically, the flange plates 16 between every two adjacent cone plates 14 are provided with opposite connecting and fixing holes 164 on the outer connecting portion 161 and the inner connecting portion 163.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 , the upper surface of the flange plate 16 is flush with the upper surface of the cone plate 14, and a ring is formed after multiple upper cover plates 11 are spliced. Through the structure with the upper surface flush and the upper cover plate 11, and combined with the foundation bottom plate 15, the position stability of the overall cone plate 14 and the flange plate 16 can be effectively ensured without deviation.
