DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: an asphalt storage device. It includes a storage tank 110, a heating component for heating asphalt is installed on the storage tank 110, and a stirring component for stirring asphalt is installed inside the storage tank 110;

[0027] The heating component includes a temperature sensor 250, a temperature controller 210, and a first heating pipe 240. The temperature controller 210 is installed on the outer wall of the storage tank 110, the temperature sensor 250 is installed on the inner wall of the storage tank 110, both ends of the first heating pipe 240 are respectively installed on the inner walls of the top and bottom walls of the storage tank 110. One end of the temperature controller 210 is installed with a first transmission pipe 220. The end of the first transmission pipe 220 away from the temperature controller 210 penetrates the top of the storage tank 110, and the end of the first transmission pipe 220 away from the temperature controller 210 is installed at one end of the first heating pipe 240. The other end of the temperature controller 210 is installed with a second transmission pipe 230. The end of the second transmission pipe 230 away from the temperature controller 210 penetrates the bottom of the storage tank 110, and the end of the second transmission pipe 230 away from the temperature controller 210 is installed at the other end of the first heating pipe 240.

[0028] During use, the asphalt is stored in the storage tank 110. The temperature sensor 250 detects the temperature of the asphalt in the storage tank 110. When the temperature of the asphalt is lower than the set value, the temperature controller 210 transmits hot water through the first transmission pipe 220 into the first heating pipe 240 and the second heating pipe 270, so that the first heating pipe 240 and the second heating pipe 270 heat the inside and outside of the asphalt simultaneously, increasing the temperature of the asphalt and making it not easy to form lumps. The heated hot water is transmitted into the second transmission pipe 230 through the first heating pipe 240 and the second heating pipe 270, and is transmitted back to the temperature controller 210 through the second transmission pipe 230 to reheat the hot water, thereby realizing continuous heating of the asphalt. The temperature sensor 250 can detect the asphalt in real time to prevent the temperature of the asphalt from being too low.

[0029] The heating assembly further includes a heating chamber 260, which is opened on the side wall of the storage tank 110. A second heating pipe 270 is installed in the heating chamber 260, and the second heating pipe 270 is wound on one inner wall of the heating chamber 260. Both ends of the second heating pipe 270 penetrate to the outside of the storage tank 110, and one end of the second heating pipe 270 is installed on the first transfer pipe 220, and the other end of the second heating pipe 270 is installed on the second transfer pipe 230. By setting the second heating pipe 270, the second heating pipe 270 can heat the inner wall of the storage tank 110, thereby heating the outside of the asphalt. At the same time, in cooperation with the first heating pipe 240, the heating area of the asphalt is increased, and the heating effect of the asphalt is improved.

[0030] A feed pipe 120 is installed at the top of the storage tank 110, and a discharge pipe 130 and multiple groups of support columns 140 are installed at the bottom of the storage tank 110. The multiple groups of support columns 140 are arranged in an annular and equidistant manner centered on the central axis of the storage tank 110. The support columns 140 are used to support the storage tank 110, so that the storage tank 110 can be far away from the ground, and thus it is not easily affected by the ground temperature, improving the storage effect of the storage tank 110.

[0031] The stirring assembly includes a mounting plate 340, which is installed in the storage tank 110. A rotating plate 350 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 340. The rotating plate 350 has an annular structure, and an internal gear 351 is installed on the inner wall of the rotating plate 350.

The stirring assembly further includes a rotating rod 320. One end of the rotating rod 320 is rotatably connected to the top inner wall of the storage tank 110, and the other end of the rotating rod 320 is rotatably connected to the top of the mounting plate 340. A gear 330 is installed on the rotating rod 320, and the gear 330 meshes with the internal gear 351. The stirring assembly further includes a motor 310, which is installed at the top of the storage tank 110. The output end of the motor 310 penetrates into the storage tank 110, and the output end of the motor 310 is drivingly connected to one end of the rotating rod 320. When storing asphalt, the motor 310 drives the rotating rod 320 to rotate. Under the action of the gear 330 and the internal gear 351, the rotating rod 320 drives the rotating plate 350 to rotate, so that the rotating plate 350 drives the multiple groups of connecting plates 360 to rotate, and the multiple groups of connecting plates 360 drive the multiple groups of stirring rods 370 to rotate, thereby stirring the asphalt to prevent the asphalt from caking and maintaining the uniformity of the asphalt.

All electrical components appearing in this application are externally connected to a power source during use.

[0033] The circuits, electrical components, and modules involved are all prior art and can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art without further elaboration. The content protected by this utility model does not involve improvements to software either.
