Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage tank technology, specifically to a concrete powder storage tank for concrete production. Background Technology

[0002] Concrete is one of the most important civil engineering materials in modern times. It is an artificial stone material made by mixing cementitious materials, granular aggregates (also known as aggregates), water, and, if necessary, admixtures and additives in a certain proportion, uniformly stirring, compacting, and curing. Concrete powder is a building material that acts as a binder in construction, making buildings more robust.

[0003] A concrete powder storage tank for concrete production, with publication number CN222311539U, has revealed the following defects during use:

[0004] This utility model, through the design of the tank, facilitates the storage of concrete powder. The arrangement of the first motor, stirring rod, and scraper reduces the likelihood of powder clumping and prevents powder from adhering to the bottom of the tank, thus avoiding interference with subsequent discharge operations. The second motor, gears, U-shaped rotating rod, gear ring, connecting plate, push rod, moving rod, fixing frame, upright plate, support spring, and striking plate effectively clean the inner wall of the tank, improving powder discharge efficiency and facilitating user operation. In actual use, powder may clump during storage depending on the environment, potentially clogging the discharge port and requiring additional time for disassembly and cleaning. Therefore, we have proposed a concrete powder storage tank for concrete production. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a concrete powder storage tank for concrete production, which solves the problem that in actual use, powder may clump during storage depending on the environment, and the powder clumps may block the discharge port during the discharge process, resulting in the need to spend extra time disassembling and cleaning.

[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A concrete powder storage tank for concrete production includes a limiting ring. A storage tank body is disposed inside the limiting ring. A first snap-fit ​​groove is formed on the outer wall of the storage tank body, and the storage tank body is snapped into the limiting ring through the first snap-fit ​​groove. A discharge pipe is located on the bottom surface of the storage tank body, and the storage tank body and the discharge pipe are connected. A second snap-fit ​​groove is formed on the outer wall of the discharge pipe. A first fixing plate is fixedly installed inside the discharge pipe. A rotating cover is snapped into the second snap-fit ​​groove. A plurality of discharge holes, which are arc-shaped holes, are formed on the bottom surfaces of the first fixing plate and the rotating cover.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom surface of the limiting ring is provided with a second fixing plate, and two support plates are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the limiting ring. The limiting ring and the second fixing plate are fixedly installed together by the two support plates, and a fixing groove is provided on the top surface of the second fixing plate.

[0009] Preferably, a fixing hole is provided on the outer wall surface of the storage tank body, a viewing block is fixedly installed inside the fixing hole, and a scale is fixedly installed on the outer wall surface of the storage tank body.

[0010] Preferably, a top cover is snapped into the inside of the storage tank body, and the top surface of the top cover has a connecting pipe that penetrates the top cover, with a funnel fitted inside the connecting pipe.

[0011] Preferably, the top surface of the top cover has a through hole, and a fixing box is fixedly installed on the top surface of the top cover, with a drive motor housed inside the fixing box.

[0012] Preferably, a rotating shaft is fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor. The rotating shaft is located inside the storage tank body. Two third snap-fit ​​grooves are opened on the outer wall of the rotating shaft. A fixing ring is sleeved inside the third snap-fit ​​groove. Several fan blades are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the fixing ring. The fan blades are arc-shaped block structures.

[0013] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0014] 1. By setting a rotating cover, the alignment of the first fixed plate and the discharge hole on the bottom surface of the rotating cover can be controlled. On the one hand, the flow rate of powder during discharge can be controlled by the alignment. On the other hand, when lumpy powder blocks the discharge hole, the internal lumpy powder can be crushed by repeated rotation.

[0015] 2. By setting up a drive motor, it can serve as a driving device to drive the internal mixer to rotate, further reducing the occurrence of powder clumping. The structure of the fan blades can increase the contact area between the rotating shaft and the powder, increase the efficiency of the mixing components, and greatly increase the storage time of the internal powder.
