[0017] Beneficial effects
[0018] This utility model provides a moisture-proof silo. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. This moisture-proof silo features two baffles that seal the opening of the feed hopper. During feeding, as material enters the hopper, its weight causes the two inclined baffles to flip to the sides. The baffles push the return spring plate, causing it to deform and allowing the material to fall through the gap between the two baffles. When feeding stops, the return spring plate pushes the baffles back to their original position, and the two baffles abut against each other to seal the bottom opening of the feed hopper. This achieves automatic opening and sealing without manual intervention, facilitating feeding. Simultaneously, it ensures the relative sealing of the storage tank's main chamber after feeding, reducing the probability of material becoming damp, resulting in superior practical performance.

[0027] A moisture-proof silo, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes:
[0028] The storage tank body 10 forms a sealed tank structure. A feeding hopper 11 for feeding is fixedly installed on the top of the storage tank body 10, and a discharge pipe 12 for discharging is fixedly installed on the bottom of the storage tank body 10. A support leg is fixedly installed on the bottom of the storage tank body 10. The feeding hopper 11 forms a funnel-shaped structure to facilitate feeding.
[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a sealing structure is installed at the lower end of the feed hopper 11 to seal the bottom opening of the feed hopper 11. The sealing structure includes a baffle 20, a groove 21, and a sliding rod 22. The groove 21 is opened on the inner wall of the storage tank body 10. Two V-shaped baffles 20 that can be rotated are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the feed hopper 11. The two baffles 20 together seal the bottom opening of the feed hopper 11. Two sliding rods 22 are arranged on both sides of the feed hopper 11. The sliding rods 22 are located in the groove 21 and are elastically connected to the feed hopper 11. The sealing structure also includes a return spring plate 23. A rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the side wall of the baffle 20. A shaft hole is opened on the side wall of the sliding rod 22. The rotating shaft is rotatably arranged in the shaft hole. The return spring plate 23 and the sliding rod 22 are connected to the groove 21. The moving rod 22 is fixedly connected, and the reset spring plate 23 can push the two baffles 20 to abut against each other. The baffles 20 form rectangular plates, and the width of the baffles 20 is equal to the width of the cavity of the feed hopper 11. The baffles 20 extend inclinedly towards the center of the feed hopper 11. The two baffles 20 abut against each other to seal the opening of the feed hopper 11. The reset spring plate 23 forms an arc-shaped plate structure, and the curved surface of the reset spring plate 23 faces the bottom of the baffles 20. The sliding rod 22 forms a rectangular block structure. The sliding rod 22 and the slide groove 21 cooperate with each other. The sliding rod 22 and the slide groove 21 are slidably connected. The sealing structure also includes a tension spring 24. The tension spring 24 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sliding rod 22, and one end of the tension spring 24 is fixedly connected to the feed hopper 11.
[0030] In this design, since the bottom of the feeding hopper 11 is open, the opening of the feeding hopper 11 is sealed with a plug at the end of feeding. Both the feeding and sealing stages require manual operation. However, the storage tank body 10 has a certain height, and climbing to the top of the storage tank body 10 to open or seal the top opening of the feeding hopper 11 is inconvenient. Therefore, two baffles 20 are set to block the opening of the feeding hopper 11. When feeding, the material enters the feeding hopper 11, and the weight of the material causes the two inclined baffles 20 to flip to both sides. The baffles 20 push the return spring plate 23 to deform, so that the material can fall through the gap between the two baffles 20. When feeding stops, the return spring plate 23 pushes the baffles 20 to return to their original position, and the two baffles 20 abut against each other to seal the bottom opening of the feeding hopper 11, realizing automatic opening and sealing, facilitating feeding, and ensuring the relative sealing of the chamber of the storage tank body 10 after feeding, reducing the probability of the material getting damp, and achieving better practical results.
[0031] like Figure 5As shown, the sealing structure also includes a push block 30 and a connecting rod 31. The push block 30 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 31, and the connecting rod 31 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feed hopper 11. The push block 30 is located above the two baffles 20. The push block 30 forms a block with a V-shaped cross section. The two baffles 20 respectively abut against the two sides of the push block 30. The push block 30 can push the two baffles 20 to separate and create a gap.
[0032] In this solution, as a supplement to the above solution, since the storage of materials in the storage tank body 10 may cause the air pressure inside the storage tank body 10 to rise, in order to achieve automatic venting and depressurization, the sliding rod 22 is elastically connected to the feed hopper 11. When the air pressure inside the storage tank body 10 rises, the air pressure pushes the baffle 20 to move the sliding rod 22 upward. The rising sliding rod 22 pulls the tension spring 24 to deform. The two baffles 20 are pushed to both sides by the two waists of the push block 30, thus forming a certain gap for venting. On the basis of automatically sealing the chamber of the storage tank body 10, it can also automatically vent and depressurize, ensuring the safety of material storage.
[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When feeding, the material enters the feeding hopper 11. The weight of the material causes the two inclined baffles 20 to flip to both sides. The baffles 20 push the return spring plate 23 to deform, so that the material can fall through the gap between the two baffles 20. When feeding stops, the return spring plate 23 pushes the baffles 20 to reset. The two baffles 20 abut against each other to seal the bottom opening of the feeding hopper 11, realizing automatic opening and sealing. When the air pressure in the storage tank body 10 increases, the air pressure pushes the baffles 20 to move the sliding rod 22 upward. The sliding rod 22 rises and pulls the tension spring 24 to deform. The two baffles 20 are pushed to both sides by the two waists of the pushing block 30 to form a certain gap for venting. In addition to realizing automatic sealing of the chamber of the storage tank body 10, it can also automatically vent and depressurize.
[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims.
