Silos and storage equipment Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of material storage, and more specifically, it relates to a silo. This utility model also relates to a material storage device. Background Technology

[0002] During the storage and unloading of powdery materials, the silo body and hopper need to withstand significant pressure and vibration. To improve structural stability and safety, the silo body and hopper are usually reinforced. Existing reinforcement structures mainly involve welding stiffening plates inside the connection between the silo body and hopper or increasing the wall thickness of the silo body and hopper. However, these structures still have certain limitations in practical applications, such as wear and cracking of the weld joints over time, leading to accidents, stress concentration at the connection, insufficient stability, and uneven stress distribution. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a silo to solve the technical problems of existing silos having insufficient stability and other design defects.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A hopper is provided, comprising a material cylinder, a hopper, and a reinforcing structure. The top of the hopper is connected to the bottom of the material cylinder. The reinforcing structure is located on the outer periphery of the hopper and includes a base and a reinforcing frame. The reinforcing frame includes a first ring beam, a second ring beam, a tie beam, and at least two diagonal braces. The first ring beam and the second ring beam are coaxial and are arranged alternately from top to bottom. The second ring beam is mounted on the top of the base. Multiple tie beams are evenly arranged around the axis of the first ring beam. The top and bottom ends of the tie beams are connected to the first ring beam and the second ring beam, respectively. The inner edge of the top of the first ring beam is connected to the connection between the material cylinder and the hopper. Both diagonal braces are located between the tie beam and the hopper. One end of each diagonal brace is connected to the tie beam, and the other end is connected to the outer wall of the hopper.

[0005] In one possible implementation, the diagonal bracing beam includes a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, and a connecting cylinder. One end of the first connecting rod is provided with a first hinge shaft that is hinged to the tie beam, and the outer circumference of the other end is formed with a first external thread. One end of the second connecting rod is provided with a second hinge shaft that is hinged to the outer wall of the hopper, and the other end is formed with a second external thread. One end of the connecting cylinder is sleeved on the outer circumference of the first connecting rod and is threadedly adapted to the first external thread. The other end of the connecting cylinder is sleeved on the outer circumference of the second external thread and is threadedly adapted to the second external thread. The first external thread and the second external thread have opposite directions of rotation. The first hinge shaft and the second hinge shaft are both parallel to the horizontal direction, and both the first hinge shaft and the second hinge shaft are perpendicular to the connecting cylinder.

[0006] In one possible implementation, the reinforcing structure further includes a vertical plate that is ring-shaped and connected end to end. The bottom of the first ring beam is connected to the top of the vertical plate, the top of the second ring beam is connected to the bottom of the vertical plate, and each of the tie beams is connected to the outer surface of the vertical plate.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the outer surface of the upright plate is provided with a plurality of vertical reinforcing ribs, which are arranged at intervals from the tie beam.

[0008] In one possible implementation, the reinforcing structure further includes a stiffening plate, a fixing bolt, and a pre-embedded nut. The stiffening plate is located at the bottom of the tie beam, and the surface of the stiffening plate is parallel to the horizontal direction. The fixing bolt is bolted through the stiffening plate and the second ring beam in the vertical direction and is bolted to the pre-embedded nut located on the base.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the second ring beam is set as an H-beam, and the reinforcing structure further includes reinforcing ribs disposed between the web and flange of the second ring beam, with the reinforcing ribs and stiffeners corresponding vertically.

[0010] In one possible implementation, each of the tie beams is connected to two of the diagonal braces, and the outer surfaces of the tie beams, the diagonal braces, and the hopper are arranged in a triangular pattern.

[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of the hopper provided by this utility model are as follows: By setting up a combination structure of base, first ring beam, second ring beam, tie beam and diagonal brace, the above structure achieves the purpose of dispersing the load at the connection between the hopper and the cylinder and enhancing the overall structure's resistance to deformation through the cooperation of multi-ring beam layered support, tie beam uniform force transmission, and diagonal brace auxiliary reinforcement. This achieves the technical effect of improving the pressure bearing stability of the hopper bottom and solves the technical problem of structural cracking or deformation caused by stress concentration at the bottom of traditional hoppers. In addition, the adjustable length diagonal brace of this utility model allows the entire reinforced structure to be adapted to hoppers of different configurations and specifications, thereby solving the technical problem that traditional fixed diagonal braces cannot match multiple hopper specifications.

[0012] Another objective of this invention is to provide a material storage device, including the silo mentioned above.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the storage device in this utility model has all the advantages of the aforementioned silo, which will not be elaborated here. In addition, by setting up the silo mentioned above, this embodiment can utilize the modular reinforcement structure and the cooperation of the hopper-cylinder to achieve the goal of simultaneously improving the overall structural strength and adaptability of the equipment, thereby achieving the technical effects of extending the service life of the equipment and reducing maintenance costs, and solving the technical problem of systemic failure caused by local weakness in traditional storage equipment.

[0025] To make the technical problem to be solved, the technical solution, and the beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 together. The hopper provided by this utility model will now be described. The hopper of this utility model includes a material cylinder 1, a hopper 2, and a reinforcing structure 3. The top of the hopper 2 is connected to the bottom of the material cylinder 1. The reinforcing structure 3 is located on the outer periphery of the hopper 2 and includes a base 37 and a reinforcing frame. The reinforcing frame includes a first ring beam 31, a second ring beam 32, a tie beam 33, and at least two diagonal bracing beams 34. The first ring beam 31 and the second ring beam 32 are coaxial and are arranged alternately from top to bottom. The second ring beam 32 is mounted on the top of the base 37. The tie beams 33 are multiple beams evenly arranged around the axis of the first ring beam 31. The top and bottom ends of the tie beams 33 are connected to the first ring beam 31 and the second ring beam 32, respectively. The inner edge of the top of the first ring beam 31 is connected to the connection part of the material cylinder 1 and the hopper 2. The two diagonal bracing beams 34 are located between the tie beams 33 and the hopper 2. One end of the diagonal bracing beam 34 is connected to the tie beam 33, and the other end is connected to the outer wall of the hopper 2.

[0027] As set up above, this embodiment, through the combined structure of base 37, first ring beam 31, second ring beam 32, tie beam 33 and diagonal brace 34, can achieve the purpose of dispersing the load at the connection between hopper 2 and cylinder 1 and enhancing the overall structure's resistance to deformation by using multi-ring beam layered support, tie beam 33 for uniform force transmission, and diagonal brace 34 for auxiliary reinforcement. This achieves the technical effect of improving the pressure-bearing stability of the bottom of the silo and solves the technical problem of structural cracking or deformation caused by stress concentration at the bottom of traditional silos. In addition, this embodiment also uses the diagonal brace 34 with adjustable length to enable the entire reinforced structure 3 to adapt to hoppers 2 of different configurations and specifications, thereby solving the technical problem that traditional fixed diagonal braces cannot match various hopper 2 specifications.

[0028] In some feasible embodiments, the diagonal bracing beam 34 includes a first connecting rod 341, a second connecting rod 342, and a connecting cylinder 343. One end of the first connecting rod 341 is provided with a first hinge shaft hinged to the tie beam 33, and the outer circumference of the other end is formed with a first external thread. One end of the second connecting rod 342 is provided with a second hinge shaft hinged to the outer wall of the hopper 2, and the other end is formed with a second external thread. One end of the connecting cylinder 343 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the first connecting rod 341 and is threaded with the first external thread; the other end of the connecting cylinder 343 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the second external thread. The first external thread and the second external thread are in opposite directions. The first hinge shaft and the second hinge shaft are both parallel to the horizontal direction and both the first hinge shaft and the second hinge shaft are perpendicular to the connecting cylinder 343. By adjusting the length of the rod body and the angle of the horizontal hinge shaft through the two reverse threads, the length of the inclined brace beam 34 can be flexibly adapted to different sizes of hoppers 2. This achieves the technical effect of enhancing the versatility of the structure and simplifying the installation and adjustment process, and solves the technical problem that traditional fixed inclined braces cannot match various hopper 2 specifications, resulting in poor adaptability.

[0029] In some feasible embodiments, the reinforcing structure 3 also includes a vertical plate 35, which is ring-shaped and connected end to end. The bottom of the first ring beam 31 is connected to the top of the vertical plate 35, the top of the second ring beam 32 is connected to the bottom of the vertical plate 35, and each tie beam 33 is connected to the outer plate surface of the vertical plate 35. This combination of vertical continuous support through the vertical plate 35 and fixed connection between the tie beams 33 and the outer plate surface of the vertical plate 35 improves the connection rigidity between the ring beams and the tie beams 33, prevents inter-layer displacement of the ring beams, and thus enhances the torsional resistance of the overall frame, solving the technical problem of local instability caused by uneven stress in multi-layer ring beams.

[0030] In some feasible embodiments, the outer surface of the upright plate 35 is provided with multiple vertical reinforcing ribs, which are arranged at intervals with the tie beam 33 to suppress out-of-plane buckling of the upright plate 35 and achieve a balanced distribution of stress in the entire reinforcing structure 3, thereby reducing the risk of local deformation of the upright plate 35 and extending its service life.

[0031] In some feasible embodiments, the reinforcing structure 3 also includes stiffening plates, fixing bolts 36, and pre-embedded nuts 38. The stiffening plates are located at the bottom of the tie beam 33, and the surface of the stiffening plates is parallel to the horizontal direction. The fixing bolts 36 are screwed through the stiffening plates and the second ring beam 32 in the vertical direction and are bolted to the pre-embedded nuts 38 located on the base 37. The above structure forms a rigid anchor between the reinforcing structure 3 and the base 37 through the horizontal support of the stiffening plates and the through-bolts fixing it to the base 37, preventing the second ring beam 32 from separating from the base 37, improving the anti-overturning capacity, and solving the technical problem of easy loosening and failure of the connection parts under vibration conditions.

[0032] In some feasible embodiments, the second ring beam 32 is set as an H-beam, and the reinforcing structure 3 also includes reinforcing ribs disposed between the web and flange of the second ring beam 32. The reinforcing ribs and stiffeners are corresponding to each other, so as to enhance the load-bearing capacity of the second ring beam 32 through the reinforcing ribs, improve the compressive strength and durability of the base 37 area, thereby solving the technical problem that the flange of the traditional ring beam is prone to deformation and collapse under heavy load.

[0033] In some feasible embodiments, each tie beam 33 is connected to two diagonal braces. The tie beam 33, diagonal braces and the outer surface of the hopper 2 are arranged in a triangular pattern to suppress the vibration and deviation of the hopper 2 through the stable triangular structure, improve dynamic stability, and solve the technical problem that the hopper 2 is prone to shaking or deflection during material flow.

[0034] Based on the same inventive concept, this utility model also proposes a material storage device, which includes the silo mentioned above.

[0035] Compared with the prior art, the storage device in this utility model has all the advantages of the aforementioned silo, which will not be elaborated here. In addition, by setting up the silo mentioned above, this embodiment can utilize the modular reinforcing structure 3 and the cooperation between the hopper 2 and the cylinder 1 to achieve the goal of simultaneously improving the overall structural strength and adaptability of the equipment, thereby achieving the technical effects of extending the service life of the equipment and reducing maintenance costs, and solving the technical problem of systemic failure caused by local weakness in traditional storage equipment.

[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
