Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of flour storage bins, in particular to a flour storage tank for flour production. Background Art

[0002] Flour, a powdered substance made from grains (primarily wheat), is a staple ingredient in baking and cooking. Rich in nutrients such as protein, carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins, flour is a vital source of energy for the human body. When storing flour, it's important to maintain dehumidification to prevent it from clumping and mold. Furthermore, due to its fine particles and high internal friction, it can be difficult to remove the flour from the storage silo. Constant tapping is required to release the flour, and this strong force can easily damage the silo, increasing the risk of damage during storage. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above technical problems, the utility model provides a flour storage tank for flour production.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a flour storage tank for flour production, comprising a tank body, the top of the tank body is connected to a feed port, the bottom of the tank body is connected to a discharge port, the feed port is provided with a first plug valve, the discharge port is provided with a second plug valve, the bottom of the tank body is fixedly connected to a support leg, the top of the tank body is fixedly connected to a pair of electric slide modules, the movable terminal of the electric slide module is fixedly connected to a connecting rod, the middle of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a motor, the rotating shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to a stirring rod, the stirring rod is fixedly connected to a stirring paddle, the front end of the stirring paddle is wider than the rear end and is obliquely connected to the stirring rod, the top of the tank body is fixedly connected to a dehumidification box, the bottom of the dehumidification box passes through the tank body and is connected to a grille, a dehumidification bag is placed in the dehumidification box, and the top of the dehumidification box is connected to a box cover.

[0005] Furthermore, a slip ring is fixedly connected to the top of the tank body, and the stirring rod is slidably arranged in the slip ring.

[0006] Furthermore, a manhole is provided on the top of the tank body, and the manhole is rotatably connected to a manhole door. The manhole door is connected to a lock, and the lock locks the manhole door and the tank body.

[0007] Furthermore, a sealing strip is connected to the bottom of the manhole door.

[0008] Furthermore, the dehumidification bag contains silica gel desiccant.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0010] The utility model is provided with an electric slide module, which can lift the stirring paddle to achieve the "flipping" effect of flour upwards. When dehumidifying, the moisture inside the flour can be reduced to prevent internal mold. When releasing the flour, the upward flipping can reduce the friction between the flour particles and speed up the flour removal speed. The stirring paddle is tilted downward and can be easily rotated into the flour after being lifted up by the rotation of the motor. A dehumidification bag wrapped with silica gel desiccant is provided, which can absorb moisture in the flour and prevent the flour from mold without causing pollution.
