Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of liquid storage tanks, and in particular to a storage tank for resin liquid. Background Technology
[0002] 3D printing materials mainly consist of photocurable resin and pigments, which need to be processed into finished products using a photocurable molding machine. The resin needs to be stored in a container during use.
[0003] A Chinese patent with publication number CN213801181U discloses a sealed epoxy resin storage device. A discharge pipe is installed above the storage tank and is fixedly connected to the storage tank. A piston is installed inside the discharge pipe and is slidably connected to the discharge pipe. A piston chamber is installed on one side of the discharge pipe and is fixedly connected to the discharge pipe. The piston chamber is slidably connected to the piston. A screw is installed on one side of the piston and is rotatably connected to the piston. A threaded seat is provided on one side of the piston chamber and is integrally formed with the piston chamber.
[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, it has been found that resin liquid storage tanks are used to discharge resin directly through the discharge pipe on the tank body. This makes it difficult to ensure a uniform supply of liquid if sedimentation occurs in the storage tank, resulting in uneven concentration of the supplied raw materials and affecting the 3D printing effect. Utility Model Content
[0005] To achieve uniform supply, this application provides a resin liquid storage tank.
[0006] The technical solution for a resin liquid storage tank provided in this application is as follows:
[0007] A resin liquid storage tank includes a tank body and a lid. The lid is installed on the upper end of the tank body and is sealed to the tank body. A positioning shell is installed on the upper surface of the lid, and the positioning shell is integrally formed with the lid. A liquid outlet pipe assembly is installed on the upper surface of the lid and is fixedly connected to the lid. A multi-head adsorption pipe assembly is installed in the positioning shell. A mixing shell is installed at the head of the multi-head adsorption pipe assembly and is sealed to the multi-head adsorption pipe assembly. The lower end of the mixing shell is inserted into the liquid outlet pipe assembly and is sealed to the liquid outlet pipe assembly. A stirring assembly is also fixedly installed on the upper end of the mixing shell.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the storage tank is designed with a structure in which the tank body and lid fit together. When in use, the lid seals the opening at the top of the tank body. Simultaneously, a positioning shell is fixedly installed on the top of the lid, allowing for the installation of a multi-head adsorption tube assembly. This assembly extends into the tank body to adsorb the liquid, ensuring stable suction when needed. The multi-head adsorption tube assembly uses multiple suction methods, allowing simultaneous suction of liquid at different heights within the tank, resulting in more uniform liquid absorption. A mixing shell is installed at the head of the multi-head adsorption tube assembly, ensuring stable discharge of liquid drawn from different heights into it. The mixing shell then uses a stirring component to continuously stir and mix the liquid before discharge. Finally, a liquid outlet assembly is fixedly installed on the top of the lid, working in conjunction with the mixing shell to stably discharge the drawn liquid.
[0009] Optionally, an air inlet pipe is installed on the side of the positioning shell, the air inlet pipe is integrally formed with the positioning shell, and a one-way valve is installed in the air inlet pipe.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, an air inlet pipe is installed on the side of the positioning shell to ensure that air can enter through the air inlet pipe when the storage tank is being pumped, thus avoiding negative pressure inside the storage tank during the pumping process. At the same time, by installing a one-way valve in the air inlet pipe, it is ensured that the liquid in the storage tank will not flow out from the air inlet pipe during use, thereby increasing the safety of the storage tank.
[0011] Optionally, the multi-head adsorption tube assembly includes a shell cover and several suction tubes. The shell cover is installed in a positioning shell and is sealed and fixedly connected to the positioning shell. The suction tubes are evenly installed on the shell cover and are fixedly connected to the shell cover.

When in use, the shell cover can be used to seal the positioning shell, and the shell cover ensures the stable installation of several suction tubes, so that the suction tubes can stably draw liquid during use.
[0013] Optionally, the cover includes a top cover and a sealing insert, the sealing insert being installed on the lower end face of the top cover and integrally formed with the top cover.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, and by designing the cover as a structure in which the top cover and the sealing insert fit together, the top cover can be inserted into the positioning shell through the sealing insert when it is easy to use, thereby ensuring a stable sealed connection between the two.
[0015] Optionally, the suction tube includes a vertical tube and a horizontal tube. The vertical tube is inserted and fixed to the top cover, and the lower end of the vertical tube extends into the barrel. The horizontal tube is fixedly installed at the head of the vertical tube.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, and by designing the suction pipe as a structure in which the vertical pipe and the horizontal pipe cooperate, it is easy to use. The vertical pipe can be inserted into the tank to absorb the liquid, while the horizontal pipe ensures that the sucked liquid can be stably discharged into the mixing shell for mixing.
[0017] Optionally, the mixing shell includes a main shell and a cap. The main shell is sealed to one end of the horizontal tube, and a connector is fixedly installed on the lower end face of the main shell. The cap is installed on the upper end face of the main shell and is sealed and fixedly connected to the main shell.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, and by designing the mixing shell as a structure in which the main shell and the cap cooperate, the upper end of the main shell can be sealed by the cap when it is easy to use, so as to ensure that the liquid entering can be stably mixed in the main shell.
[0019] Optionally, the stirring assembly includes a motor and a stirring impeller.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, and by designing the stirring assembly as a structure in which the motor and the stirring impeller cooperate, it is easy to use. When the motor drives the stirring impeller, it can quickly stir and mix the liquid in the mixing shell.
[0021] Optionally, a plurality of levers are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction on the outer surface of the bucket lid, and the levers are integrally formed with the bucket lid.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, several levers are evenly arranged along the circumference on the outer side of the bucket lid, which ensures better rotation operation when installing and removing the bucket lid.

[0031] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0032] This application discloses a resin liquid storage tank in its embodiments. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a resin liquid storage tank 1 includes a storage tank 1, a tank body 11 and a tank cover 12. The tank cover 12 is installed on the upper end of the tank body 11 and is sealed to the tank body 11. A positioning shell 13 is installed on the upper end face of the tank cover 12 and is integrally formed with the tank cover 12. A liquid outlet pipe assembly 4 is installed on the upper end face of the tank cover 12 and is fixedly connected to the tank cover 12. A multi-head adsorption pipe assembly 2 is installed in the positioning shell 13. A mixing shell 3 is installed at the head of the multi-head adsorption pipe assembly 2 and is sealed and fixedly connected to the multi-head adsorption pipe assembly 2. The lower end face of the mixing shell 3 is inserted into the liquid outlet pipe assembly 4 and is sealed to the liquid outlet pipe assembly 4. A stirring assembly 5 is also fixedly installed on the upper end of the mixing shell 3. By designing the storage tank 1 with a matching structure of tank body 11 and tank lid 12, the opening at the top of the tank body 11 can be sealed by the tank lid 12 when in use. Simultaneously, by fixing a positioning shell 13 to the top of the tank lid 12, the multi-head adsorption tube assembly 2 can be installed via the positioning shell 13 when in use. The multi-head adsorption tube assembly 2 can then be inserted into the tank body 11 to adsorb the liquid inside. This ensures stable suction when liquid needs to be dispensed. The multi-head adsorption tube assembly 2 employs multiple suction methods. This design allows for the simultaneous extraction of liquid from different heights within the tank 11, ensuring more uniform extraction. A mixing shell 3 is installed at the head of the multi-head adsorption tube assembly 2, ensuring stable discharge of liquid extracted from different heights into the mixing shell 3. The mixing shell 3 is then continuously stirred and mixed by a stirring component 5 before being discharged to the rear. A liquid outlet pipe assembly 4 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the tank cover 12, allowing for stable discharge of the extracted liquid in conjunction with the mixing shell 3. An air inlet pipe 131 is integrally formed with the positioning shell 13, and a one-way valve 132 is installed within the air inlet pipe 131. By installing an air inlet pipe 131 on the side of the positioning shell 13, air can be introduced through the air inlet pipe when the storage tank 1 is being suctioned, preventing negative pressure from forming inside the storage tank 1 during suction. Simultaneously, by installing a one-way valve 132 in the air inlet pipe 131, liquid in the storage tank 1 will not flow out from the air inlet pipe 131 during use, increasing the safety of using the storage tank 1. Several levers 121 are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction on the outer surface of the tank lid 12, and the levers 121 are integrally formed with the tank lid 12. The evenly arranged levers 121 on the outer surface of the tank lid 12 ensure better rotational operation when installing and removing the tank lid 12.
[0033] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the multi-head adsorption tube assembly 2 includes a cover 21 and several suction tubes 22. The cover 21 is installed in the positioning shell 13, and the cover 21 and the positioning shell 13 are sealed and fixedly connected. The suction tubes 22 are evenly installed on the cover 21, and the suction tubes 22 are fixedly connected to the cover 21. By designing the multi-head adsorption tube assembly 2 into a structure in which the cover 21 and several suction tubes 22 cooperate, the cover 21 can be used to seal the positioning shell 13 when in use. At the same time, the cover 21 ensures the stable installation of the suction tubes 22, so that the suction tubes 22 can stably draw liquid during use. The cover 21 includes a top cover 211 and a sealing insert 212. The sealing insert 212 is installed on the lower end face of the top cover 211, and the sealing insert 212 and the top cover 211 are integrally formed. By designing the cover 21 as a structure in which the top cover 211 and the sealing insert 212 cooperate, the top cover 211 can be inserted into the positioning shell 13 through the sealing insert 212 when in use, thus ensuring a stable and sealed connection between the two. The suction tube 22 includes a vertical tube 221 and a horizontal tube 222. The vertical tube 221 is inserted and fixed to the top cover 211, and the lower end of the vertical tube 221 extends into the barrel 11. The horizontal tube 222 is fixedly installed at the head of the vertical tube 221. By designing the suction tube 22 as a structure in which the vertical tube 221 and the horizontal tube 222 cooperate, the vertical tube 221 can be inserted into the barrel 11 for liquid adsorption when in use, while the horizontal tube 222 ensures that the adsorbed liquid can be stably discharged into the mixing shell 3 for mixing.
[0034] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the mixing tank 3 includes a main housing 31 and a cap 32. The main housing 31 is sealed to one end of the horizontal tube 222, and a connector 311 is fixedly installed on the lower end face of the main housing 31. The cap 32 is installed on the upper end face of the main housing 31 and is sealed and fixedly connected to the main housing 31. By designing the mixing tank 3 into a structure in which the main housing 31 and the cap 32 cooperate, the upper end of the main housing 31 can be sealed by the cap 32 when in use, thus ensuring that the incoming liquid can be stably mixed in the main housing 31.
[0035] Reference Figure 6 As shown, the stirring assembly 5 includes a motor 51 and a stirring impeller 52. The motor 51 is fixedly mounted on the upper end face of the cover 32, and the output end of the motor 51 extends through the cover 32 into the main housing 31. The stirring impeller 52 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the motor 51. By designing the stirring assembly 5 into a structure in which the motor 51 and the stirring impeller 52 cooperate, it is easy to use by using the motor 51 to drive the stirring impeller 52 to quickly stir and mix in the mixing shell 3.
[0036] The implementation principle of a resin liquid storage tank according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: In actual use, an external suction pump is connected to the liquid outlet pipe assembly 4, and then liquid at different heights in the tank 11 can be sucked through suction pipes 22 of different lengths. After the liquid is sucked into the mixing shell 3, the motor 51 can be started to drive the stirring impeller 52 to rotate rapidly in the mixing shell 3, thereby achieving rapid mixing of the incoming liquid. The mixed liquid can flow stably from the insertion pipe 311 at the lower end of the mixing shell 3 into the liquid outlet pipe assembly 4, and finally be stably discharged through the liquid outlet pipe assembly 4, achieving a stable supply to external equipment. In actual use, the appropriate length of suction pipe 22 can be selected according to the overall height of the storage tank 1 to ensure that the lower end of the vertical pipe 221 on the suction pipe 22 can be inserted to different heights of the liquid.
[0037] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
