Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of mixing equipment, specifically the tank structure of a continuous mixing host. Background Technology
[0002] During high-speed mixing, the materials being mixed inside the tank collide with the inner wall. The tank is constructed from rigid materials such as steel, and its side plates are typically reinforced with ribs or welded supports made of square tubing or channel steel. Due to the varying operating environments of continuous mixing units, the arrangement of the belt conveyor often differs. However, the support legs are usually welded directly to the tank, which presents the following disadvantages:
[0003] Firstly, the distribution of reinforcing ribs during high-speed mixing affects the strength of the tank. Excessive sparseness can lead to tank deformation. Furthermore, the reinforcing ribs require welding to the tank, resulting in numerous weld seams that can cause cracks over time, shortening the tank's lifespan. Additionally, welding the support legs to the tank is subject to limitations imposed by on-site factors, leading to a highly specialized structure. Therefore, this paper proposes a tank structure for a continuous mixing host. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a tank structure for a continuous mixing host, which has the characteristics of low cost, high rigidity, high interchangeability, simple structure and good sealing, and solves the problems of multiple welds on the side plates of traditional tanks, complex structure and low rigidity.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: This utility model provides a tank structure for a continuous mixing host, including a tank body arranged laterally. The tank body has a side plate assembly, an end plate, and a bottom plate on its outer side. The side plate assembly consists of two sets of symmetrically arranged side plates, with the top edge of the side plate being a bent edge. The end plate is fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the side plate assembly. Vertical ribs are welded and fixed to the outer side of the end plate. The upper and lower edges of the end plate are bent edges. The bottom plate consists of four pieces welded and fixed to the bottom of the tank body.
[0006] Preferably, the tank top opening formed by the side plate assembly and end plate is provided with an embedded maintenance door, the front and rear ends of the bottom plate are welded to the side plate assembly, the four corners of the bottom plate are provided with connecting plates, the connecting plates are provided with connecting holes, the connecting holes are connected to the external support legs by bolts, and bottom ribs are welded and fixed to the bottom of the bottom plate.
[0007] Preferably, the side plate is made of two plates arranged along the length direction and welded together at the bottom. The side plate has an L-shaped cross-section and stiffening plates are welded and fixed on the outer side of the bottom of the side plate assembly.
[0008] Preferably, the bent edge is bent 180° towards the inside or outside of the tank, and the bending width of the bent edge is 70mm.
[0009] Preferably, the bending cross-section of the bent edge is U-shaped or V-shaped.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0011] 1. The side plate of this utility model adopts a bending structure instead of welding square tube. There is only one weld on the side of the entire mixing tank, which prevents weld fatigue, avoids stress concentration, enhances the strength of the side plate, extends the service life, and eliminates the need for additional welding or assembly, reducing manufacturing costs. The bending structure makes the surface smoother and easier to clean and maintain.
[0012] 2. This utility model has the advantages of low cost, high rigidity, high interchangeability, simple structure and good sealing, which solves the problems of multiple welds on the side plates of traditional tanks, complex structure and low rigidity. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0019] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0020] Example 1, as Figure 1-3 As shown, a tank structure for a continuous mixing host includes a tank body arranged laterally. The outer side of the tank body includes a side plate assembly 1, an end plate 2, and a bottom plate 3. The side plate assembly 1 consists of two sets of symmetrically arranged side plates. The top edge of the side plate is set as a bent edge 4. The side plate assembly 1 retains only one main weld at the bottom to avoid stress concentration from multiple welds. The bending process replaces the existing square tube welding, reducing processing costs.
[0021] The end plate 2 is fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the side plate assembly 1. Vertical ribs 5 are welded and fixed to the outer side of the end plate 2. The upper and lower edges of the end plate 2 are set as bent edges 4. The end plate 2 provides a high-strength support surface for mounting transmission components. The bent edges 4 also improve the deformation resistance of the end plate 2, eliminating the need for end square tube welding and reducing the amount of weld seams. The vertical ribs 5 fix the stirring shaft and transmission device. Four bottom plates 3 are welded and fixed to the bottom of the tank.
[0022] The specific design of the aforementioned key components will be discussed in detail below:
[0023] The tank top opening formed by the side plate assembly 1 and end plate 2 is equipped with an embedded maintenance door 6. The embedded maintenance door 6 is directly embedded in the top opening of the tank, reducing dust leakage points and allowing maintenance without disassembling external components. The bottom plate 3 is welded to the side plate assembly 1 at both ends. Connecting plates 7 are provided at the four corners of the bottom plate 3, and connecting holes 8 are provided on the connecting plates 7. The connecting holes 8 are connected to external support legs by bolts. Bottom ribs 10 are welded and fixed to the bottom of the bottom plate 3. The four bottom plates 3 are welded to the connecting plates 7 with connecting holes 8 at the four corners of the tank bottom. The bottom ribs 10 strengthen the bottom plate 3 and enhance the local load-bearing capacity. The bolts connect to the external support legs, enabling quick disassembly and assembly of the support legs, facilitating replacement, adapting to different belt conveyor layouts, and avoiding installation errors caused by welding deformation.
[0024] The side plate is composed of two plates arranged along the length direction, welded together at the bottom. The side plate has an L-shaped cross-section, and a stiffening plate 9 is welded and fixed to the outer side of the bottom of the side plate assembly 1. Since the side plate is butt-welded, the entire side of the tank only has a bottom weld. Therefore, the stiffening plate 9 is welded to the bottom of the side plate assembly 1 to enhance the bottom strength. The four bottom plates 3 welded to the bottom of the tank are bolted to the support legs for easy transportation and disassembly. The bent edge 4 is bent 180° inward or outward into the tank, and the bending width of the bent edge 4 is 70mm. The bent edge 4 reinforces the edge structure instead of square tube welding. The bending cross-section of the bent edge 4 is U-shaped or V-shaped, and the U-shaped or V-shaped bending cross-section forms an overlapping anti-deformation structure.
[0025] All standard parts used in this utility model can be purchased from the market, and irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art. In addition, the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here. The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields.
