Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of powder storage equipment, specifically a powder storage device with a multi-layer sealing structure. Background Technology
[0002] Powder is an aggregate of many small particles. Its common characteristics are: it has many discontinuous surfaces, a large specific surface area, and is composed of many small particles. Powder materials are a type of material. Due to the low weight of the particles, powder materials need to be stored in special powder storage tanks during daily storage to prevent the powder from being scattered.
[0003] However, existing powder storage tanks have the following problems in the daily storage of powder materials: Powder is introduced and discharged through the inlet and outlet, respectively. The outlet is equipped with a valve for efficient opening and closing of the powder, while the inlet is often sealed with a cover. To improve the sealing performance of the inlet, a sealing ring is usually installed on the cover. However, in actual use, relying solely on the sealing ring leads to aging of the ring over time, causing a decrease in the sealing performance of the inlet. There is a lack of effective means to seal the inlet of powder storage tanks efficiently. Therefore, it is necessary to design corresponding technical solutions to address these problems.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] Please see Figure 1-3This utility model provides a technical solution: a powder equipment with a multi-seal structure, including a powder storage tank 1 and a support frame 2 installed below the powder storage tank 1. The powder storage tank 1 has an inlet 3 at the top and a discharge port 4 at the bottom. The discharge port 4 is equipped with a valve. A tank cover 5 is movably connected to the inlet 3 via a hinge. Two sets of tightening bolts 6 are symmetrically inserted on both sides of the tank cover 5. Two sets of threaded pipes 7 are provided on both sides of the inlet 3. The threaded pipes 7 are fixed to the top of the powder storage tank 1 and are threadedly connected to the tightening bolts 6. A primary sealing assembly 8 is provided at the inlet 3. The primary sealing assembly 8 includes a side plate 9, a transmission plate 10, a pressure rod 11, a pressure plate 12, a floating ring 13, and a sealing ring 14. The side plates 9 are divided into two sets and symmetrically fixed on both sides of the inlet 3. The middle part of the transmission plate 10 is connected to the side plate 9. Plate 9 is rotatably connected, pressure rod 11 is connected to the left end of two sets of transmission plates 10, the right end of two sets of transmission plates 10 is in contact with the lower edge of floating ring 13, floating ring 13 is fitted into feed inlet 3, sealing ring 14 is located above floating ring 13, pressure ring 15 is fixed to the edge of tank cover 5, pressure plate 12 is fixed to the edge of pressure ring 15 and used in conjunction with pressure rod 11, secondary sealing assembly 16 is provided on tank cover 5, secondary sealing assembly 16 includes bolt 17 and pressure plate 18 fixed inside bolt 17, bolt 17 threaded through the middle of tank cover 5, inner end of bolt 17 is connected to pressure plate 18, air ring 19 is fixed inside pressure plate 18, air ring 19 is attached to the inner wall of tank cover 5 and one side is connected to air guide pipe 20, air guide pipe 20 is connected to sealing air pad 21, sealing air pad 21 is located in the inner ring of tank cover 5.
[0020] Further improvements, such as Figure 2 As shown, the transmission plate 10 has an arc-shaped structure and the height in the middle is lower than the height at both ends.
[0021] Further improvements, such as Figure 2 As shown, a notch 22 is provided at the lower end of the pressure plate 12. The diameter of the notch 22 is larger than the diameter of the pressure rod 11, so that the pressure plate 12 can apply pressure to the pressure rod 11.
[0022] Further improvements, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sealing ring 14 has a ring-shaped structure and is made of rubber. The surface of the sealing ring 14 is machined with several sets of extrusion grooves 23, which are distributed in a stacked manner. The sealing ring 14 and the pressure ring 15 are distributed accordingly and used together. The sealing ring 14 contacts the pressure ring 15 of the can cover 5 to achieve the purpose of sealing the outer ring of the contact part between the feed inlet 3 and the can cover 5.
[0023] Further improvements, such as Figure 2As shown, a rotating disk 24 is fixed to the outer end of the bolt 17. The rotating disk 24 is located on the outside of the can cover 5. The operator adjusts the position of the bolt 17 by applying force to the rotating disk 24, thereby adjusting the position of the pressure plate 18. The pressure plate 18 squeezes the air ring 19 and introduces the gas through the air guide pipe 20 into the sealing air pad 21, thereby achieving the purpose of expanding and sealing the inner ring of the contact part between the feed port 3 and the can cover 5.
[0024] Specifically, the sealing gas pad 21 has a hollow ring structure and its surface is processed into a layered structure. This design facilitates the introduction of gas into the sealing gas pad 21 to expand the sealing gas pad 21, thereby achieving contact sealing treatment of the contact area between the feed inlet 3 and the can cover 5.
[0025] In use: When it is necessary to seal the inlet 3 of the powder storage tank 1, the tank cover 5 is flipped over and placed over the inlet 3. During the flipping and pressing of the tank cover 5, the pressure plate 12 presses down on the pressure rod 11. The pressure rod 11 is forced to move down and drives the transmission plate 10 to rotate around the side plate 9. The inner end of the transmission plate 10 pushes the floating ring 13 to move up and pushes the sealing ring 14 to act on the pressure ring 15. The sealing ring 14 squeezes the pressure ring 15 to achieve the purpose of sealing the outer ring of the tank cover 5. Then, the tightening bolt 6 is threaded into the threaded tube 7 to achieve the purpose of fixing. After adjustment, the operator holds the rotating disc 24 and rotates it to drive the bolt 17 to rotate synchronously and move outward. During the outward movement, the pressure plate 18 squeezes the air ring 19 to introduce the gas through the air guide pipe 20 into the sealing air pad 21, thereby achieving the purpose of expanding and sealing the inner ring of the contact part between the inlet 3 and the tank cover 5. This achieves the purpose of double sealing inside and outside the tank cover 5 and the inlet 3 under the closed state, improving the sealing effect of the inlet 3.
