[0025] Two connecting rods 9 are fixed to the top of the fixed frame 8 by bolts. The storage box 3 is fixed between the top ends of the two connecting rods 9 by bolts. The electric push rod 12 extends, causing the fixed frame 8 to move the storage box 3 upward, so that the height of the storage box 3 and the fixed frame 8 can be adjusted, so that the device can be used for buffer tank 1 bodies of different heights with the same distance between the air inlet and the feed inlet.

[0026] The storage bin 3 is divided into two cavities by a baffle 13 fixed inside by bolts. The outer walls of both sides of the storage bin 3 are fixed with fixing blocks 14 by bolts. The top of the fixing blocks 14 are respectively rotatably connected to the first connecting cover 4 and the second connecting cover 5. The first connecting cover 4 and the second connecting cover 5 seal the top opening of the storage bin 3. The first connecting cover 4 has an air hole and an air valve inside the air hole to prevent the pressure inside the storage bin 3 from being too high.

[0027] A vacuum pump 6 is fixed to one side of the outer wall of the storage bin 3 by bolts. The vacuum pump 6 can perform vacuum extraction inside the storage bin 3.

[0028] In particular, the bottom of the storage box 3 is provided with a discharge port, and the bottom inner wall of the storage box 3 is provided with a guide plate 15, and a guide pipe is fixedly connected to the discharge port.
