Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the mechanical ventilation technical field, concretely relates to a kind of layered ventilation system for shallow round warehouse. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the sustained and stable growth of China's grain output, the total grain reserves continue to rise, which undoubtedly increases the pressure of grain reserves, leading to the increasingly prominent problem of grain storage, the storage environment faces the challenge of gradual deterioration, and the grain loss rate is also high.Under this background, mechanical ventilation technology, as a scientific grain storage technology, plays a crucial role in the grain storage process.This technology, through the fan and the grain warehouse air duct system, promotes the penetration of air outside the warehouse through the grain pile, effectively improving the microclimate conditions of the grain pile.It not only can reduce the temperature of the heated grain and high-temperature grain, but also can adjust and control the moisture of the stored grain.Combined with the circulating fumigation equipment, the grain is subjected to circulating fumigation operation, thereby delaying the aging of grain quality.At present, mechanical ventilation technology has been widely used in modern grain warehouses and has become one of the essential storage equipment and devices in modern grain warehouses.Many years of practice have proved that mechanical ventilation grain storage technology has significant economic and social benefits in ensuring the safety of grain storage.

[0003] The mechanical ventilation of shallow round warehouse mainly relies on the ground cage and ground slot ventilation system, however, as the height of grain pile in shallow round warehouse gradually increases, such as the height of grain pile exceeding 15 meters, the pressure gradient formed inside the grain pile also increases, which directly leads to the gradual increase of resistance encountered by air flowing inside the grain pile, which will seriously hinder the smooth flow of air, making it difficult to effectively ventilate some areas inside the grain pile, i.e., the phenomenon of "blowing not through" occurs, which not only affects the drying effect of grain, but also threatens the storage quality of grain, and also brings high power consumption, high grain water loss, and poor economy;In view of the above-mentioned "blowing not through" problem, the existing solution is to use a double-layer ventilation system, such as the ventilation system disclosed in CN102282983A, which improves the ventilation efficiency of high grain pile, but the height of the system itself cannot be adjusted, which has limitations when facing grain piles or warehouses of different heights, and the upper ventilation pipeline is only supported by a single vertical ventilation pipeline, which has insufficient stability, and as the grain pile subsides, it is easy to cause the upper ventilation pipeline and the vertical ventilation pipeline to break or the upper ventilation pipeline to sink, thereby affecting the ventilation effect.
