[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0016] This invention provides a storage device for improving the stability of carbon black. The device includes a stirring mechanism inside the silo. The stirring blades in the stirring mechanism are arranged in multiple layers and at multiple angles. The upper layer of paddle-type stirring blades ensures that the carbon black is fully stirred and dispersed in the upper part of the silo, preventing carbon black particles from agglomerating or forming large lumps. The lower layer of downward-sloping stirring blades helps to turn the carbon black from the bottom of the silo upwards, ensuring that the carbon black in the entire silo is uniformly stirred, thereby improving its dispersibility and stability.
[0017] This device is equipped with an oxygen concentration sensor and a humidity sensor inside the hopper. The oxygen concentration sensor monitors the oxygen concentration in the hopper in real time. When the oxygen concentration exceeds the set value, the first electric valve will automatically open to inject nitrogen into the hopper, thereby reducing the oxygen concentration. The humidity sensor monitors the humidity in the hopper in real time. When the humidity exceeds the set value, the blower will automatically start to ventilate the hopper through the annular ventilation duct to reduce the humidity.
[0018] The annular ventilation duct inside the hopper of this device is designed to be concentric with the mixing shaft, which ensures that the ventilation airflow is evenly distributed throughout the hopper, allowing the air to mix better with the carbon black, thereby ensuring air circulation in the hopper, reducing humidity, and preventing the carbon black from getting damp.
[0019] The top of the hopper in this device is equipped with an air outlet to ensure smooth airflow. The exhausted air is then treated by a cyclone separator and a bag filter, effectively removing dust generated during the mixing and ventilation processes of the carbon black, preventing environmental pollution and ensuring carbon black quality. In summary, this device, through the uniform mixing of the mixing mechanism, nitrogen protection, and dehumidification of the ventilation mechanism, significantly improves the stability of carbon black and prevents its agglomeration, oxidation, or moisture absorption.
[0020] The baffle plate can effectively block the carbon black particles from leaking out of the air outlet along with the ventilation airflow, ensure the cleanliness of the storage environment and the quality of the carbon black, and also can reduce the loss of carbon black and improve the resource utilization rate. In addition, the baffle plate can block most of the carbon black particles from being discharged, thereby reducing the dust load of the subsequent cyclone separator and bag dust collector, and prolonging the service life thereof.
[0021] The spiral flow guide groove on the surface of the stirring shaft can guide the air to flow along a specific path when the stirring shaft rotates, enhance the ventilation effect, and help the air circulation in the bin, reduce the humidity, and prevent the carbon black from being damp.
[0022] The second electric valve is arranged on the connecting pipeline of the bin and the cyclone separator, and a dust concentration sensor is arranged in the bin, and the dust concentration sensor is interlocked with the second electric valve. The dust concentration sensor can monitor the dust concentration in the bin in real time, so that the operator can know the dispersion state of the carbon black particles and the possible dust pollution in time. By interlocking the dust concentration sensor with the second electric valve, automatic control can be realized. When the dust concentration in the bin exceeds the set value, the second electric valve will be automatically opened, so that the gas carrying dust is discharged and treated by the cyclone separator and the bag dust collector, thereby improving the storage stability of the carbon black.
[0023] A buffer plate is arranged below the feed inlet of the bin in the bin, the buffer plate is arranged obliquely, and a plurality of feed holes are arranged on the buffer plate. When the material falls into the bin from the feed inlet, the impact force is large, which is easy to impact and compact the inner wall of the bin and the material below. The oblique buffer plate can effectively slow down the falling speed of the material and reduce the impact force, so as to protect the structure of the bin and the loose property of the material. Moreover, through the plurality of feed holes on the buffer plate, the material can be more uniformly dispersed in the bin, which helps to avoid excessive accumulation of the material in a certain area, and improves the utilization rate and dispersibility of the carbon black material.
