Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material storage and processing technology, and in particular to a multifunctional mixing tank. Background Technology

[0002] Due to the complexity of modern construction projects, concrete often requires multiple functions, such as expansive concrete, antifreeze concrete, early-strength concrete, permeable concrete, and corrosion-resistant concrete. Concrete admixtures are a crucial way to achieve these different functions, leading to the development of various concrete admixtures, such as expansive agents, antifreeze agents, early-strength agents, water-reducing agents, and corrosion inhibitors. However, in concrete mixing plants, space constraints limit the number of storage tanks for concrete admixtures. When different projects require different admixtures, the tanks may become occupied. Furthermore, sometimes multiple admixtures are used in the same project, and ensuring uniform mixing during concrete production is a challenge. Additionally, low temperatures during winter construction can affect the performance of concrete admixtures; maintaining suitable storage temperatures helps ensure optimal performance.

[0003] A bulk material scale, also known as a hopper scale, is an electronic weighing instrument used to measure the weight of bulk materials. It mainly consists of a weighing hopper, support frame, valves, load cells, junction box, signal cable, and intelligent weighing display.

[0004] The problem with existing technology is that the storage tank can only serve a single type of material storage function, which is limited; when the temperature is low, the temperature of the material in the storage tank drops, which can easily affect the performance of the material.
