Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wine storage equipment technology, specifically to a commercial wine storage tank for sale. Background Technology

[0002] Wineries typically use dedicated storage tanks to deliver their brewed wine to retailers. When a tank runs out and needs replenishment, a designated delivery person from the winery delivers the wine to the retailer. However, some retailers, seeking to increase profits, add lower-value wines to the tanks, adulterating the wine. This not only lowers the quality and harms consumers but also damages the wine's brand. Therefore, there is a need to develop a retail storage tank that can prevent retailers from adulterating the wine during the sales process, ensuring quality, enhancing brand image, and protecting the rights of both consumers and wineries. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a commercial wine storage tank that can prevent retailers from mixing counterfeit wines during the sales process, ensure the quality of the wine, enhance the brand effect of the wine, and protect the rights and interests of consumers and wineries.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a commercial wine storage tank, comprising a tank body, a wine-adding pipe at the top of the tank body, a wine-discharging pipe at the bottom, an upper cavity surrounding the wine-adding pipe, a top cover at the top of the upper cavity that can be opened by a combination lock, a ball valve inside the wine-adding pipe, a pipe plug at the pipe opening above the ball valve, and an air hole inside the pipe plug with one end communicating with the atmosphere and the other end communicating with the tank body; an operating rod on one side of the ball valve, the other end of the operating rod extending out of the upper cavity and connected to a handle; a closed lower cavity surrounding the wine-discharging pipe, one end of the wine-discharging pipe connected to the tank body, the other end extending out of the lower cavity and connected to a wine-discharging valve, a one-way valve installed on a section of the wine-discharging pipe inside the lower cavity, the fluid direction of the one-way valve being from the tank body to the wine-discharging valve.

[0005] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model features an upper cavity and a lower cavity outside the wine-adding pipe and the wine-discharging pipe, respectively. The top of the upper cavity is equipped with a cover that can be opened with a combination lock. The combination lock is set by a person specifically assigned to add wine at the winery. Distributors cannot open the top cover of the upper cavity to add wine without the combination lock. Simultaneously, because the wine outlet pipe at the bottom of the tank is located in a closed lower cavity, and the wine-discharging pipe inside the lower cavity is equipped with a one-way valve, the one-way valve ensures that wine can only be discharged and not refilled. This prevents distributors from adding wine through the wine-adding and wine-discharging pipes separately, fundamentally eliminating the possibility of distributors adulterating the wine with counterfeit wine during the sales process. This ensures the quality of the wine, enhances the brand effect, and protects the rights and interests of consumers and the winery. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0010] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0011] Please see Figure 1 This utility model provides a technical solution: a commercial wine storage tank, including a tank body 3, a wine-adding pipe 8 at the top of the tank body 3, a wine-discharging pipe 9 at the bottom, an upper cavity 4 around the wine-adding pipe 8, a top cover 5 at the top of the upper cavity 4 that can be opened by a combination lock 41, a ball valve 7 inside the wine-adding pipe 8, a pipe plug 6 at the pipe opening above the ball valve 7, and a vent 6 inside the pipe plug 6 with one end communicating with the atmosphere and the other end communicating with the tank body 3. 61; This ensures that the wine inside the tank 3 can be discharged smoothly; an operating lever 71 is provided on one side of the ball valve 7, and the other end of the operating lever 71 extends out of the upper cavity 4 and connects to the handle 72; a closed lower cavity 2 is provided around the wine discharge pipe 9, one end of the wine discharge pipe 9 is connected to the tank 3, and the other end extends out of the lower cavity 2 and connects to the wine discharge valve 92. A one-way valve 91 is installed on a section of the wine discharge pipe 9 inside the lower cavity 2. The fluid direction of the one-way valve 91 is from the tank 3 to the wine discharge valve 92. The one-way valve 91 ensures that the wine in the tank 3 can only be discharged and cannot be filled in, thus preventing the seller from adding wine from the wine filling pipe 8 and the wine discharge pipe 9 respectively.

[0012] The upper cavity 4 is made of a round tube. Several upper retaining plates 43 are evenly arranged circumferentially on the outer side of the cavity wall of the upper cavity 4. The top cover 5 has a corresponding number of lower retaining plates 52. One side of the outer wall of the upper cavity 4 has an upper latching plate 42, and one side of the top cover 5 has a corresponding lower latching plate 51. Locking holes are located at corresponding positions on the upper latching plates 42 and 51, and a combination lock 41 is installed in the locking holes. When the lower retaining plate 52 of the top cover 5 engages with the upper retaining plate 43 of the upper cavity 4, the locking holes of the upper latching plates 42 and 51 coincide, and the combination lock 41 engages, locking the upper latching plates 42 and 51. The combination lock 41 is set by a designated person at the distillery who adds the liquor; without the combination, the retailer cannot open the top cover 5 above the upper cavity 4 to add liquor.

[0013] A sealing ring 81 is provided inside the wine filling tube 8 at the contact point with the tube stopper 6. This ensures a seal between the wine filling tube 8 and the tube stopper 6.

[0014] A limit rod 73 is provided at the corresponding handle 72 outside the upper cavity 4. The limit rod 73 is used to limit the rotation of the handle 72, thereby limiting the opening and closing of the ball valve 7.

[0015] The lower cavity 2 is uniformly provided with supports 1 around its outer wall, and a reinforcing plate 10 is provided at the connection between the lower cavity 2 and the tank 3.

[0016] This invention features an upper cavity 4 and a lower cavity 2 outside the wine-adding pipe 8 and the wine-discharging pipe 9, respectively. The upper cavity 4 has a top cover 5 that can be opened with a combination lock 41. The combination lock 41 is set by a designated wine-adding person at the distillery, preventing retailers from opening the top cover 5 to add wine without the combination. Simultaneously, the lower cavity 2, located at the wine-discharging pipe 9 at the bottom of the tank 3, is sealed. The wine-discharging pipe 9 inside the lower cavity 2 is equipped with a one-way valve 91, ensuring that wine can only be discharged and not refilled. This prevents retailers from adding wine through both the wine-adding pipe 8 and the wine-discharging pipe 9, fundamentally eliminating the possibility of retailers adulterating the wine with counterfeit wine during the sales process. This ensures the quality of the wine, enhances its brand image, and protects the rights of both consumers and the distillery.
