Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of storage tanks, in particular to a vertical storage tank for preventing material caking. Background Technique
[0002] In many industrial production fields, such as chemical industry, pharmaceutical, food processing, etc., the storage of materials is an important link. However, during the storage process, materials often have the problem of caking. The structure of traditional vertical storage tanks is relatively simple, usually just a simple container, lacking effective designs to prevent material caking. When storing some materials with sticky, hygroscopic or easy-to-crystallize characteristics, due to factors such as long-term static state, temperature change, humidity influence, etc., the materials are prone to stick to each other and aggregate to form lumps. Caking will not only affect the flowability of the materials, resulting in unsmooth discharging, but also may cause uneven distribution of material components, affecting subsequent processing technologies and product quality. In addition, caking may also cause the materials to accumulate in the tank, reducing the effective storage space and increasing the difficulty and cost of cleaning and maintenance. To solve these problems and improve the quality and efficiency of material storage, a vertical storage tank for preventing material caking has emerged as the times require. Publication No.: CN215206517U discloses a vertical storage tank, including a tank body. A first discharge pipe is opened at the lower end of the tank body. A bottom cover is hinged to the first discharge pipe. A main shaft is arranged in the tank body along the central axis of the tank body. One end of the main shaft is close to the first discharge pipe. A plurality of push plates are fixedly arranged along the circumferential direction at the end of the main shaft close to the first discharge pipe. The tank body is provided with a power device for driving the main shaft to lift and lower. When discharging materials in this application, the user opens the bottom cover, and then uses the power device to control the main shaft to lift and lower repeatedly, thereby driving the push plates to lift and lower repeatedly, playing an auxiliary pushing role on the materials pressed and knotted near the first discharge pipe, having the effect of facilitating discharging. However, for the above-mentioned equipment, during the storage process of the above-mentioned equipment, the equipment can only be stored statically, and the materials are prone to stick to each other and aggregate to form lumps. Caking will not only affect the flowability of the materials, resulting in unsmooth discharging, but also may cause uneven distribution of materials, affecting subsequent processing technologies and product quality, and needs to be improved.
