Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of silo system technology, and in particular to a silo system. Background Technology

[0002] Silos are important devices in a system used for intermediate storage, buffering, and regulation. Their structure is mostly a tall, slender cylinder with a spherical or conical upper head and a conical lower head for easy material unloading. The main body is usually made of steel or aluminum-magnesium alloy. However, silo systems still have some limitations.

[0003] The silo is a thin-walled cylindrical structure, which has a poor ability to withstand bending moments and localized concentrated loads. Especially when the height-to-diameter ratio is large and there are heavy auxiliary equipment on the top, the load-bearing capacity and safety of the steel structure support on the top are poor.

[0004] Because of the large height-to-diameter ratio of the silo, the main steel column is rooted on the foundation plane of the silo and has a large slenderness ratio. It needs to be reinforced to ensure stability and safety, which increases the amount of steel used, raises costs, and lengthens the manufacturing cycle.

[0005] Under wind and seismic loads, the steel structure at the top of the silo will generate vertical and horizontal forces at the connection surface with the supporting brackets, which are equivalent to applying a vertical concentrated load and a bending moment to the silo body, respectively. Because the silo has poor capacity to withstand bending moments and localized concentrated loads, and the aluminum-magnesium alloy silo material has a low allowable stress value, when the top steel structure is high or the loads from auxiliary equipment are large, resulting in significant wind and seismic loads, the supporting bracket structure cannot meet the silo's stress requirements and cannot guarantee the safety of the silo body. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, this application provides a silo system to solve the problems of poor load-bearing capacity and safety of silos after the top support is installed.

[0007] The above-mentioned objectives of this application are mainly achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] A silo system, the silo system comprising:

[0009] The main body of the silo has internal storage space;

[0010] The first reinforcing ring is coaxially arranged with the main body of the silo and fixedly installed on the top of the outer wall of the main body of the silo. A plurality of first reinforcing ribs are arranged at intervals between the first reinforcing ring and the outer wall of the main body of the silo.

[0011] The second reinforcing ring is coaxially arranged with the main body of the silo and fixedly installed on the top of the main body of the silo. The outer diameter of the second reinforcing ring is smaller than the inner diameter of the first reinforcing ring, and a plurality of radially arranged ribs are fixedly connected between the outer wall of the second reinforcing ring and the inner wall of the first reinforcing ring. The ribs are fixedly connected to the main body of the silo.

[0012] A support member is used to support and fix the working equipment, and the support member is detachably fixed to the first reinforcing ring.

[0013] In an optional embodiment, a third reinforcing ring is fixedly provided on the first reinforcing ring, and the third reinforcing ring is at the same height position as the first reinforcing ring.

[0014] In an optional embodiment, the silo system further includes a plurality of connecting rings fixedly disposed on the rib plate, a plurality of first connecting ribs being provided between the connecting rings and the third reinforcing ring, the third reinforcing ring, the first connecting ribs and the connecting rings forming an annular plane, and the bearing member being disposed on the annular plane.

[0015] In an optional embodiment, at least four connecting rings are provided, and at least six of the first connecting ribs are connected to each connecting ring.

[0016] In an optional embodiment, a vertically arranged second connecting rib is fixed between the first connecting rib and the rib plate.

[0017] In an optional embodiment, each of the connecting rings is fixedly provided with a connecting post, the connecting post being arranged vertically and fixedly connected to the carrier.

[0018] In an optional embodiment, the third reinforcing ring is provided with a plurality of main columns of the same length as the connecting column, the main columns being arranged vertically and fixedly connected to the bearing member.

[0019] In an optional embodiment, the load-bearing member includes a plurality of main beams arranged alternately on the same plane, and the plurality of main beams are fixedly connected to each other.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, the first reinforcing ring is an annular I-beam.

[0021] In an optional embodiment, an annular fixing ring is fixedly provided on the outer side wall of the silo body, and the annular fixing ring supports the first reinforcing rib.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this application are:

[0023] The silo system of this application includes a silo body, a first reinforcing ring, a second reinforcing ring, and a support member. The silo body has an internal accommodating space. The first reinforcing ring is coaxially arranged with the silo body and fixedly installed on the top of the outer wall of the silo body. Multiple spaced first reinforcing ribs are provided between the first reinforcing ring and the outer wall of the silo body. The second reinforcing ring is coaxially arranged with the silo body and fixedly installed on the top of the silo body. The outer diameter of the second reinforcing ring is smaller than the inner diameter of the first reinforcing ring, and multiple radially arranged ribs are fixedly connected between the outer wall of the second reinforcing ring and the inner wall of the first reinforcing ring. The ribs are fixedly connected to the silo body. The support member is used to support and fix the operating equipment, and the support member is detachably fixed to the first reinforcing ring.

[0024] The silo system effectively enhances the load-bearing capacity of the silo top by incorporating a first reinforcing ring at the top of the silo's outer wall and connecting it to the silo body using multiple spaced-apart reinforcing ribs. Simultaneously, a second reinforcing ring is fixedly connected to the first reinforcing ring via radially arranged ribs, further dispersing the load and making its distribution more uniform, thus significantly improving the overall load-bearing capacity of the silo. This is particularly suitable for situations where the top needs to support heavy auxiliary equipment, effectively solving the problem of insufficient load-bearing capacity in traditional silo tops. It allows the silo system to better distribute stress under various loads, avoiding safety hazards caused by excessive local stress. Especially for silos made of materials with low allowable stress values, such as aluminum-magnesium alloys, it effectively ensures safe operation under complex working conditions. Furthermore, the detachable design of the load-bearing components not only facilitates the installation and replacement of operating equipment but also allows for flexible configuration adjustments according to actual needs, further optimizing the stress state of the silo system and improving its adaptability and safety.

[0025] Secondly, by optimizing the overall structure, the bending stiffness of the silo was enhanced, enabling the silo system to maintain better stability under wind and seismic loads, reducing deformation and stress concentration. This not only reduces the stability risks caused by the large height-to-diameter ratio of the silo, but also reduces the reliance on steel main columns, thereby reducing the amount of steel used, costs, and manufacturing cycle. It ensures the integrity of the structure while reducing material costs and facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0033] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is intended to aid in understanding the present invention, but does not constitute a limitation thereof. The specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are only for describing exemplary embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention may be embodied in many alternative forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a silo system provided in an embodiment of this application; a silo system includes a silo body 100, a first reinforcing ring 201, a second reinforcing ring 202, and a support member 400, wherein:

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the silo body 100 has an internal storage space. The silo body 100 is the core part of the entire silo system, and its interior is used for storing materials. The size and shape of this storage space can be designed according to actual needs to meet different storage requirements.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 Provided for embodiments of this application Figure 1A partially enlarged schematic diagram at point A shows that the first reinforcing ring 201 is coaxially arranged with the silo body 100 and fixedly installed on the top of the outer wall of the silo body 100. Multiple first reinforcing ribs 301 are arranged at intervals between the first reinforcing ring 201 and the outer wall of the silo body 100.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the first reinforcing ring 201 is coaxially arranged with the hopper body 100 and fixedly installed at the top of the outer wall of the hopper body 100. To further enhance the stability of the structure, the first reinforcing ring 201 is connected to the outer wall of the hopper body 100 by multiple spaced first reinforcing ribs 301. The first reinforcing ribs 301 can not only effectively distribute the load, but also improve the local load-bearing capacity of the top of the hopper, ensuring stability when bearing the weight of the top auxiliary equipment.

[0038] The second reinforcing ring 202 is coaxially arranged with the hopper body 100 and fixedly installed on the top of the hopper body 100. The outer diameter of the second reinforcing ring 202 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first reinforcing ring 201. A plurality of radially arranged ribs 302 are fixedly connected between the outer wall of the second reinforcing ring 202 and the inner wall of the first reinforcing ring 201. The ribs 302 are fixedly connected to the hopper body 100.

[0039] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This application provides a top view of a portion of the components at the rib 302 in an embodiment. The second reinforcing ring 202 is also coaxially arranged with the hopper body 100 and fixed to the top of the hopper body 100. The outer diameter of the second reinforcing ring 202 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first reinforcing ring 201, allowing the second reinforcing ring 202 to form a stable structure with the first reinforcing ring 201. The outer wall of the second reinforcing ring 202 and the inner wall of the first reinforcing ring 201 are fixedly connected by multiple radially arranged ribs 302. The ribs 302 not only connect the first reinforcing ring 201 and the second reinforcing ring 202, but are also fixedly connected to the hopper body 100, further enhancing the rigidity and stability of the entire structure. This effectively disperses the load, making the load evenly distributed, thereby improving the overall load-bearing capacity of the hopper.

[0040] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the support member 400 is used to support and fix the working equipment 601, and the support member 400 is detachably fixed to the first reinforcing ring 201. The support member 400 is an important component for supporting and fixing the working equipment 601. The support member 400 is detachably fixed to the first reinforcing ring 201, which not only facilitates the installation and replacement of the working equipment 601, but also allows for flexible adjustment of the configuration of the support member 400 and its auxiliary equipment according to actual needs. This flexibility enables the silo system to better adapt to different working conditions, improving its versatility and practicality.

[0041] In an optional embodiment, the operating principle of the silo system in this application is as follows: the silo system includes a silo body 100, a first reinforcing ring 201, a second reinforcing ring 202, and a support member 400. The silo body 100 has an internal accommodating space. The first reinforcing ring 201 is coaxially arranged with the silo body 100 and fixedly installed on the top of the outer wall of the silo body 100. A plurality of first reinforcing ribs 301 are arranged at intervals between the first reinforcing ring 201 and the outer wall of the silo body 100. The second reinforcing ring 202... 02 is coaxially arranged with the silo body 100 and fixedly installed on the top of the silo body 100. The outer diameter of the second reinforcing ring 202 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first reinforcing ring 201, and a plurality of radially arranged ribs 302 are fixedly connected between the outer wall of the second reinforcing ring 202 and the inner wall of the first reinforcing ring 201. The ribs 302 are fixedly connected to the silo body 100. The bearing member 400 is used to support and fix the working equipment 601. The bearing member 400 is detachably fixed on the first reinforcing ring 201.

[0042] The silo system effectively enhances the load-bearing capacity of the silo top by incorporating a first reinforcing ring 201 at the top of the outer wall of the silo body 100 and connecting it to the silo body 100 using multiple spaced-apart first reinforcing ribs 301. Simultaneously, a second reinforcing ring 202 is fixedly connected to the first reinforcing ring 201 via radially arranged ribs 302, further dispersing the load and making the load distribution more uniform, thus significantly improving the overall load-bearing capacity of the silo. This is particularly suitable for situations where the top needs to support heavy auxiliary equipment, effectively solving the problem of insufficient load-bearing capacity of traditional silo tops. It allows the silo system to better disperse stress when subjected to various loads, avoiding safety hazards caused by excessive local stress. Especially for silos made of materials with low allowable stress values, such as aluminum-magnesium alloys, it effectively ensures safe operation under complex working conditions. Furthermore, the detachable design of the load-bearing component 400 not only facilitates the installation and replacement of the operating equipment 601 but also allows for flexible configuration adjustments according to actual needs, further optimizing the stress state of the silo system and improving its adaptability and safety.

[0043] Secondly, by optimizing the overall structure, the bending stiffness of the silo was enhanced, enabling the silo system to maintain better stability under wind and seismic loads, reducing deformation and stress concentration. This not only reduces the stability risks caused by the large height-to-diameter ratio of the silo, but also reduces the reliance on the 505 steel main column, thereby reducing the amount of steel used, costs, and manufacturing cycle. It ensures the integrity of the structure while reducing material costs and facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement.

[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in an optional embodiment, a third reinforcing ring 202 is fixedly provided on the first reinforcing ring 201. The third reinforcing ring 202 is at the same height as the first reinforcing ring 201, which further enhances the structural strength of the top of the hopper body 100 and provides a more stable support platform for the bearing 400.

[0045] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 A top view of a portion of the components at the first connecting rib 502 is provided for an embodiment of this application. In an optional embodiment, the silo system further includes a plurality of connecting rings 501 fixedly disposed on the rib plate 302. A plurality of first connecting ribs 502 are provided between the connecting rings 501 and the third reinforcing ring 202. The third reinforcing ring 202, the first connecting ribs 502 and the connecting rings 501 form an annular plane. The bearing member 400 is disposed on the annular plane.

[0046] Furthermore, the silo system also includes multiple connecting rings 501 fixedly mounted on the rib plate 302. These connecting rings 501 are connected to the third reinforcing ring 202 via multiple first connecting ribs 502. The third reinforcing ring 202, the first connecting ribs 502, and the connecting rings 501 together form an annular plane, on which the support member 400 is disposed. This not only improves the stability of the support member 400 but also enhances the overall integrity of the entire system.

[0047] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 4 As shown, in an optional embodiment, at least four connecting rings 501 are provided, and at least six first connecting ribs 502 are connected to each connecting ring 501. This connection method can effectively distribute the load and ensure uniform force on the annular plane, thereby improving the stability and safety of the bearing member 400.

[0048] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, in an optional embodiment, a vertically arranged second connecting rib 503 is fixed between the first connecting rib 502 and the rib plate 302. The setting of the second connecting rib 503 further enhances the stability of the structure and ensures that the connection between the connecting ring 501 and the third reinforcing ring 202 is more secure under various complex working conditions.

[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in an optional embodiment, each connecting ring 501 is fixedly provided with a connecting post 504, which is vertically arranged and fixedly connected to the carrier 400. Each connecting ring 501 is also fixedly provided with a connecting post 504, which is vertically arranged and fixedly connected to the carrier 400. This allows the carrier 400 to be more stably fixed on the annular plane, while facilitating the installation and removal of the carrier 400.

[0050] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 A top view of some components at the main beam 506 is provided for an embodiment of this application. In an optional embodiment, the third reinforcing ring 202 is provided with a plurality of main columns 505 of the same length as the connecting column 504. The main columns 505 are arranged vertically and are fixedly connected to the bearing member 400.

[0051] The third reinforcing ring 202 is equipped with multiple main columns 505 of the same length as the connecting column 504. The main columns 505 are arranged vertically and are fixedly connected to the load-bearing component 400. The main columns 505 further enhance the supporting capacity of the load-bearing component 400, ensuring stability when bearing heavy equipment.

[0052] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 5 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the load-bearing member 400 includes multiple main beams 506 arranged in a staggered manner on the same plane, and the multiple main beams 506 are fixedly connected to each other. This staggered arrangement of the main beams 506 effectively distributes the load, improves the overall strength and stability of the load-bearing member 400, and enables the load-bearing member 400 to better support and fix the working equipment 601.

[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, in an optional embodiment, the first reinforcing ring 201 is a ring-shaped I-beam. Regarding material selection, the first reinforcing ring 201 is made of a ring-shaped I-beam. I-beams have high bending strength and good load-bearing capacity, which can effectively enhance the structural strength of the first reinforcing ring 201, thereby improving the load-bearing capacity of the entire silo system.

[0054] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in an optional embodiment, an annular fixing ring 507 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the hopper body 100, and the annular fixing ring 507 supports the first reinforcing rib 301. The annular fixing ring 507 is also fixedly provided on the outer wall of the hopper body 100 to support the first reinforcing rib 301. This not only provides stable support for the first reinforcing rib 301, but also further enhances the connection strength between the hopper body 100 and the first reinforcing ring 201, ensuring the stability of the entire system.
