Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of chemical storage devices, and in particular to a chemical drum. Background Technology
[0002] In the daily production process of a factory, the preparation, use, and handling of flammable and explosive chemicals such as high-concentration alcohol and hydrogen peroxide are common operations. However, these chemicals are highly volatile, and the vapors formed in the air can easily ignite fires or even explosions if they come into contact with a source of ignition. In actual operation, static electricity is inevitably generated by personnel activities, material flow, and friction. The accumulation of static electricity is a potential hazard; once the conditions for discharge are met, it can become a direct ignition source for these flammable and explosive vapors.
[0003] Currently, traditional chemical containers only have basic storage functions and cannot effectively eliminate the hazards of static electricity. This limitation means that static electricity accumulation is a persistent problem in factory environments, especially in scenarios involving flammable and explosive chemicals, where the hazard is particularly prominent. Once static electricity triggers a discharge, the consequences can be catastrophic, potentially damaging factory equipment, causing personal injury, and resulting in significant economic losses. Therefore, effectively eliminating the hazards of static electricity and ensuring the safety of factories handling flammable and explosive chemicals has become an urgent problem to be solved.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0029] Static electricity buildup is a potential safety hazard during the storage and transportation of chemicals. Due to friction between chemicals and container walls, static electricity can be continuously generated and accumulated. Once it reaches a certain intensity, it can ignite an electrical spark, potentially leading to serious accidents such as combustion or explosion.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the chemical drum of this utility model embodiment includes: drum body 1, grounding stake 2, electrostatic detection component 4, first comparison circuit and atomizing component 3.
[0031] Grounding stake 2 is installed on the container body 1. Grounding stake 2 is used to promptly conduct any static electricity that may be generated by the chemical container to the ground, preventing static electricity accumulation. Container body 1 is used to safely store and protect chemicals from leakage, volatilization, and deterioration. Container body 1 is equipped with a liquid outlet and a cover installed on the outlet. The cover is used to open or close the outlet, facilitating the addition of materials.
[0032] The electrostatic detection component 4 is used to detect the electrostatic value of the barrel 1 and to send a first electrical signal based on the electrostatic value; the first comparison circuit is connected to the electrostatic detection component 4 and can receive the first electrical signal sent by the electrostatic detection component 4. The first comparison circuit is used to compare the first electrical signal with the first reference electrical signal and output a high level when the first electrical signal is greater than the first reference electrical signal.
[0033] The atomizing assembly 3 includes a liquid storage tank 31, a pump body 32, and an atomizing nozzle 33, which are fluidly connected in sequence. The pump body 32 is activated when a high-level output from a first comparator circuit is received. The atomizing nozzle 33 is positioned facing the tank 1. The liquid storage tank 31 provides a stable water supply to ensure continuous atomization. The pump body 32 pressurizes the liquid in the liquid storage tank 31 and delivers it to the atomizing nozzle 33. The atomizing nozzle 33 efficiently converts the liquid into fine water mist and sprays it evenly, quickly increasing the humidity of the environment around the tank 1, effectively reducing excessive static electricity caused by dryness, and moderately regulating the local temperature to create a more suitable environment. For example, the pump body 32 is installed in the liquid storage tank 31 and connected to the atomizing nozzle 33 via a pipe 34.
[0034] Specifically, when the static electricity detection component 4 detects that the static electricity value of the barrel 1 exceeds the set safety threshold, it will immediately activate the protection mechanism: on the one hand, it will conduct away the abnormal static electricity in real time through the grounding pile 2 to ensure that the static electricity dissipates quickly; on the other hand, it will automatically activate the atomizing component 3 to release fine water mist to increase the humidity of the surrounding environment. The increase in humidity can effectively inhibit the further accumulation of static electricity, thereby avoiding potential dangers caused by static electricity, such as fire or explosion.
[0035] Considering that flammable and explosive chemicals are highly susceptible to static electricity generation during material flow and personnel activity in factory production environments, and that dry environments not only exacerbate the hazards of static electricity but also increase the risk of chemical deterioration, this utility model's chemical container integrates humidification and static electricity elimination functions into one unit, forming an active protection mechanism. This not only significantly improves the safety of chemical storage and effectively prevents accidents caused by static electricity but also ensures the stability of chemical quality by optimizing the humidity of the storage environment. Ultimately, this chemical container provides a reliable guarantee for the safe production and efficient operation of the factory.
[0036] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the electrostatic discharge (ESD) detection assembly 4 includes an ESD discharge component 41 and an ESD detector 42. The ESD discharge component 41 is installed on the barrel 1 and electrically connected to the ESD detector 42. The ESD detector 42 is connected to a first comparison circuit. That is, the ESD detector 42 sends a first electrical signal based on the ESD value to the first comparison circuit.
[0037] It should be noted that the main function of the electrostatic discharge ring is to conduct static electricity in real time and prevent its accumulation. Connected to the grounding stake 2, it rapidly conducts static electricity generated on the container 1 to the ground, thus completely eliminating static electricity hazards and ensuring a safe working environment. In practical applications, the electrostatic discharge ring is also connected to the electrostatic detector 42 via a wire. The wire transmits static electricity signals, accurately conveying the static electricity information sensed by the discharge ring to the electrostatic detector 42. The electrostatic detector 42 can monitor the static electricity situation in the environment in real time, accurately measuring and analyzing parameters such as static potential and charge, providing data support for static electricity management. When the electrostatic detector 42 detects that the static electricity value exceeds the safety threshold, it will quickly activate the atomizing component 3. The atomizing component 3 regulates the ambient temperature and humidity by spraying humidification, increasing the moisture content in the air, thereby effectively reducing the probability of static electricity generation. This linkage mechanism not only improves the efficiency of static electricity protection but also optimizes the chemical storage environment, further ensuring the stability of chemical quality and operational safety.
[0038] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the static discharge component 41 is a ring-shaped structure and is fitted onto the outer side of the barrel body 1.
[0039] It should be noted that the electrostatic discharge component 41 adopts a ring-shaped structure, which significantly increases the contact area with the container body 1, thereby improving the electrostatic discharge efficiency. At the same time, the ring-shaped structure also enhances the installation stability between the electrostatic discharge component 41 and the container body 1, ensuring the reliability and durability of the electrostatic discharge function during use. Thus, not only is the electrostatic discharge performance optimized, but a more stable guarantee is also provided for the safe operation of the chemical container.
[0040] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the chemical drum also includes an audible and visual alarm 5, which is connected to a first comparison circuit and is used to sound an alarm when it receives a high level output from the first comparison circuit.
[0041] Specifically, the chemical drum is equipped with an audible and visual alarm 5, which is connected to a first comparison circuit. When the static electricity value exceeds the safe range, the first comparison circuit outputs a high-level signal, triggering the audible and visual alarm 5 to immediately emit a loud buzzing sound, accompanied by flashing warning lights.
[0042] In other words, this alarm mechanism can promptly draw the attention of operators, prompting them to take swift measures to avoid safety hazards during the storage and use of chemicals caused by excessive static electricity, thereby effectively preventing accidents such as fires and explosions and ensuring the safety of equipment and personnel.
[0043] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the chemical drum also includes a temperature and humidity detection component 6, a second comparison circuit, and a third comparison circuit. The temperature and humidity detection component 6 is used to detect the temperature and humidity values around the drum body 1, and sends out a second electrical signal based on the temperature value and a third electrical signal based on the humidity value. Both the second and third comparison circuits are connected to the temperature and humidity detection component 6. The second comparison circuit compares the second electrical signal with a second reference electrical signal, and outputs a high level when the second electrical signal is greater than the second reference electrical signal. The pump body 32 is activated when it receives the high level output from the second comparison circuit. The third comparison circuit compares the third electrical signal with a third reference electrical signal, and outputs a low level when the third electrical signal is less than the third reference electrical signal. The pump body 32 is activated when it receives the low level output from the third comparison circuit.
[0044] Specifically, the temperature and humidity detection component 6 is used to detect the temperature and humidity values around the tank 1 in real time. When the temperature reaches a set threshold, the temperature and humidity detection component 6 will emit a second electrical signal; when the humidity is lower than the set threshold, it will emit a third electrical signal. A second comparison circuit is connected to the temperature and humidity detection component 6 and is used to compare the second electrical signal with a second reference electrical signal. When the second electrical signal is greater than the second reference electrical signal, the second comparison circuit outputs a high-level signal. A third comparison circuit is also connected to the temperature and humidity detection component 6 and is used to compare the third electrical signal with a third reference electrical signal. When the third electrical signal is less than the third reference electrical signal, the third comparison circuit outputs a low-level signal. When the pump body 32 receives a high-level signal from the second comparison circuit, it will start to deal with the situation of excessively high temperature. When the pump body 32 receives a low-level signal from the third comparison circuit, it will start to deal with the situation of excessively low humidity.
[0045] In other words, the temperature and humidity detection component 6 continuously monitors the temperature and humidity of the environment surrounding the container 1. Once it detects that the ambient humidity is lower than the set value or the ambient temperature is higher than the set value, the temperature and humidity detection component 6 will automatically trigger the atomizing component 3. The atomizing component 3 will then activate, releasing a fine water mist around the container 1 to increase the ambient humidity. This increased humidity not only meets the humidity requirements for chemical storage but also effectively reduces the generation of static electricity, thereby ensuring the stability of the chemical storage environment and avoiding safety hazards caused by abnormal temperature and humidity. In other words, the chemical container can automatically adjust its working state according to changes in ambient temperature and humidity, ensuring that the storage environment is always within a safe range, thus effectively avoiding safety hazards in chemical storage and use caused by abnormal temperature and humidity.
[0046] It is particularly important to note that the audible and visual alarm 5 is connected to the second comparator circuit, and is used to trigger an alarm when a high-level output from the second comparator circuit is received. The audible and visual alarm 5 is also connected to the third comparator circuit, and is used to trigger an alarm when a low-level output from the third comparator circuit is received. In other words, the audible and visual alarm 5 is connected to at least one of the first, second, and third comparator circuits.
[0047] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the temperature and humidity detection component 6 includes a temperature and humidity probe 61 and a temperature and humidity detector 62, with the probe 61 and detector 62 electrically connected. The detector 62 is connected to a second comparison circuit and a third comparison circuit. Specifically, the detector 62 sends a second electrical signal based on the temperature value to the second comparison circuit. It also sends a third electrical signal based on the humidity value to the third comparison circuit.
[0048] It should be noted that the temperature and humidity probe is located close to the outer side of the tank 1. The temperature and humidity probe is used to monitor the temperature and humidity of the environment around the tank 1 in real time. By accurately measuring the temperature and humidity data, it provides a basis for starting, adjusting and stopping the humidification function.
[0049] In practical applications, the temperature and humidity detection component 6, the atomization component 3, and the static electricity detection component 4 work together to continuously monitor changes in environmental temperature, humidity, and static electricity. Once the temperature and humidity detection component 6 detects that the humidity is below the suitable range or the temperature is above the suitable range, it automatically triggers the atomization system to evenly distribute water mist into the surrounding environment, increasing humidity or decreasing temperature to maintain environmental stability. Furthermore, if the static electricity detection system detects that the static electricity value exceeds safety standards, and the temperature and humidity detection component 6 indicates that the current humidity is too low or the temperature is too high, it will also quickly activate the atomization component 3 to reduce the generation and accumulation of static electricity through humidification, comprehensively ensuring stable equipment operation and preventing chemical safety accidents caused by abnormal environments or static electricity problems.
[0050] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the atomizing nozzle 33 is located at the top of the barrel 1, and there is a gap between the atomizing nozzle 33 and the top of the barrel 1.
[0051] For example, the atomizing nozzle 33 is installed directly above the top of the container 1, maintaining a certain distance from the top of the container 1, specifically 1 meter. This ensures that the water mist sprayed by the atomizing nozzle 33 can evenly cover the entire container 1, thereby effectively increasing the humidity of the surrounding environment and optimizing the chemical storage conditions.
[0052] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the chemical drum also includes a support 7, which provides stable support for the drum body 1 and the storage tank 31. For example, the support 7 consists of a support plate and support legs, with the support legs mounted below the support plate to ensure the stability of the support 7. Both the drum body 1 and the storage tank 31 are mounted on the support plate, thus making the entire chemical drum structure more stable and facilitating installation and use in a factory environment.
[0053] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the chemical drum also includes a support 8, which is installed on the outer side of the drum body 1, and the electrostatic detection component 4 is installed on the support 8.
[0054] It should be noted that the chemical drum also includes a bracket 8, on which the electrostatic detector 42, temperature and humidity detector 62, and audible and visual alarm 5 can all be mounted. Furthermore, the chemical drum is equipped with a control mainboard, which is also mounted on the bracket 8. The control mainboard integrates a first comparison circuit, a second comparison circuit, and a third comparison circuit, used to process and compare various detection signals to ensure the safe operation of the chemical drum under different environmental conditions.
[0055] In practical applications, the bracket 8 includes a connecting plate and a mounting plate that are connected together. The connecting plate is installed on the outer side of the barrel 1, and the electrostatic detection component 4 is installed on the mounting plate.
[0056] For example, the connecting plate includes a first connecting plate and a second connecting plate arranged opposite to each other, and a mounting plate is connected to the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate. The connecting plate is U-shaped in general. The control main board, the electrostatic detector 42, the temperature and humidity detector 62 and the audible and visual alarm 5 are all installed on the side of the mounting plate away from the barrel 1.
[0057] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
