Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of packaging equipment technology, specifically to a resin material ton container. Background Technology

[0002] Resin-filled bulk containers (also known as IBCs or tiered containers) are large, reusable industrial containers primarily used for storing and transporting liquids, semi-fluids, or granular materials. Their widespread use in the chemical, food, and pharmaceutical industries stems from their integration of chemical resistance of the inner container, protection of the contents, structural strength and stacking stability of the outer frame, and design that facilitates mechanized handling.

[0003] The existing ton container technology has the following problems: the discharge pipe of the ton container is designed to be located on the side and lower. When the storage pipe is connected to the pipeline and liquid is discharged outward, the liquid below the discharge pipe is not easy to be discharged. Therefore, it is necessary to design a ton container that can empty the liquid inside the ton container as much as possible. Utility Model Content

[0004] A resin-material ton container includes a ton container shell and a bottom-contacting suction tube.

[0005] The outer shell of the ton container includes at least a hollow rectangular body, a valve groove located below the left end face of the body, a discharge pipe located on the valve groove, and a discharge valve located on the discharge pipe. The upper end face of the body has a threaded opening and a sealing end cap screwed on it. The upper right side of the inner wall of the discharge pipe also has a stop protrusion for blocking the pressure sliding block.

[0006] The bottom-touching suction tube is located inside the discharge tube and is used to extract liquid material from the portion of the outer shell body below the lower edge of the discharge tube. The bottom-touching suction tube includes a fixing component connected to the discharge tube, a flipping component hinged to the fixing component, a bellows connecting the fixing component and the flipping component, and a release latch for locking the flipping component.

[0007] The fixing assembly includes a slidable end retaining ring disposed inside the discharge lower pipe, a small-diameter circular pipe disposed to the right of the end retaining ring, a right-positioned convex ring disposed to the right of the small-diameter circular pipe, a cutting plane formed above the right-positioned convex ring, a first slot disposed inside the right-positioned convex ring, and a hinge groove disposed below the right-positioned convex ring. A hinge circular hole is provided on each side of the hinge groove. An inclined cut surface that gradually slopes upward from left to right is also cut and formed below the right-positioned convex ring.

[0008] The flipping assembly includes a flipping tube, a flipping cut surface above the flipping tube, a second slot at the left opening of the flipping tube, and a connecting protrusion on the left side of the flipping tube. Each side of the connecting protrusion is provided with a hinged circular shaft that is rotatably connected to the hinged groove. The right end of the flipping tube is also provided with a flipping inclined surface. When the flipping assembly is flipped downwards, the flipping inclined surface is flush with the bottom surface of the outer shell. The right end of the flipping tube is also provided with at least some water-permeable openings.

[0009] One end of the bellows is connected to the first slot, and the other end of the bellows is connected to the second slot.

[0010] It also includes a release latch, which includes a spring groove on the upper edge of the end retaining ring, a locking rod slot on the right side of the spring groove, a storage spring on the left half of the spring groove, a slidable pressure block on the right half of the spring groove, a sliding locking rod on the right side of the pressure block and passing through the locking rod slot, and a locking lower groove on the right side of the lower end face of the sliding locking rod. The release latch also includes a locking protrusion on the left side of the flipping round tube and locked by the locking lower groove.

[0011] The sliding lock bar is made of elastic material.

[0012] The upper end face of the locking protrusion is provided with a pressure-bearing inclined surface on the left and right respectively.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the proposed solution in this case are as follows:

[0014] The ton container described in this case allows for convenient discharge of liquid material below the lower edge of the discharge pipe from inside the container via a bottom-feeding pipe. This is more convenient than existing technologies that require tilting the container.

[0015] The ton container described in this case has a bottom-contact suction tube that is easy to install. Before use, the flipping component and the fixing component are kept flush. Then, the bottom-contact suction tube is inserted into the discharge pipe. After the flipping component enters the inner cavity of the ton container, it naturally hangs down under the action of gravity. The flipping slope is as close as possible to the bottom of the outer shell of the ton container to discharge the liquid material inside the ton container.

[0016] The ton container described in this case can also temporarily lock the flipping component by releasing the latch, keeping it flush with the fixed component, so that it can be directly inserted into the discharge pipe; after the bottom suction pipe is fully inserted, the stop protrusion triggers the release latch, and the flipping component can then flip downward.

[0035] A resin-material ton container includes a ton container shell 9 and a bottom-contacting suction tube 8.

[0036] The outer shell 9 of the ton container includes at least a hollow rectangular body 91, a valve groove 92 located below the left end face of the body 91, a discharge pipe 93 located on the valve groove 92, and a discharge valve 94 located on the discharge pipe 93. The upper end face of the body 91 is provided with a threaded opening and a sealing end cap 95 is screwed on. The upper right side of the inner wall of the discharge pipe 93 is also provided with a stop protrusion 96 for blocking the pressure slider 44.

[0037] The bottom-touching suction tube 8 is located inside the discharge tube 93 and is used to extract liquid material from the portion of the outer shell body 91 below the lower edge of the discharge tube 93. The bottom-touching suction tube 8 includes a fixing component 1 connected to the discharge tube 93, a flipping component 2 hinged to the fixing component 1, a bellows 3 connecting the fixing component 1 and the flipping component 2, and a release latch 4 for locking the flipping component 2.

[0038] The fixing component 1 includes an end retaining ring 11 slidably disposed within the discharge lower pipe 93, a small-diameter round pipe 12 disposed to the right of the end retaining ring 11, a right-positioned convex ring 13 disposed to the right of the small-diameter round pipe 12, a cutting plane 14 formed above the right-positioned convex ring 13, a first slot 15 disposed within the right-positioned convex ring 13, and a hinge groove 16 disposed below the right-positioned convex ring 13. A hinge round hole 17 is provided on each side of the hinge groove 16. An inclined cut surface 18 that gradually slopes upward from left to right is also cut and formed below the right-positioned convex ring 13.

[0039] The flipping assembly 2 includes a flipping tube 21, a flipping cut surface 22 above the flipping tube 21, a second slot 23 at the left opening of the flipping tube 21, and a connecting protrusion 24 on the left side of the flipping tube 21. The connecting protrusion 24 has a hinged round shaft 25 on each side that is rotatably connected to the hinged groove 16. The right end of the flipping tube 21 is also provided with a flipping inclined surface 26. When the flipping assembly 2 is flipped downwards, the flipping inclined surface 26 is flush with the bottom surface of the outer shell body 91. The right end of the flipping tube 21 is also provided with at least one water-permeable opening 27.

[0040] One end of the bellows 3 is connected to the first slot 15, and the other end of the bellows 3 is connected to the second slot 23.

[0041] It also includes a release latch 4, which includes a spring groove 41 on the upper edge of the end retaining ring 11, a locking rod slot 42 on the right side of the spring groove 41, a storage spring 43 on the left half of the spring groove 41, a sliding block 44 on the right half of the spring groove 41, a sliding locking rod 45 on the right side of the sliding block 44 and passing through the locking rod slot 42, and a locking lower groove 46 on the right side of the lower end face of the sliding locking rod 45. The release latch 4 also includes a locking protrusion 47 on the left side of the flip tube 21 and locked by the locking lower groove 46.

[0042] The sliding locking rod 45 is made of elastic material.

[0043] The upper end face of the locking protrusion 47 is provided with a pressure-bearing inclined surface on the left and right respectively.

[0044] The resin material ton container described in this case has a bottom-contact suction pipe 8 that can directly contact the bottom of the outer shell body 91, thereby facilitating the discharge pipe connected to the discharge valve 94 to draw out the liquid material located below the discharge pipe 93 through siphon action or an external negative pressure pump.

[0045] The bottom-contact suction tube 8 is easy to install; simply align the flipping component 2 with the fixing component 1 and then pass it through the discharge tube 93.

[0046] Rotate the flipping component 2 around the hinged circular shaft 25 until the locking protrusion 57 is engaged in the locking lower groove, the flipping component 2 is aligned with the fixing component 1, and the bellows 3 is compressed.

[0047] Insert the bottom-feeding suction tube 8 into the discharge tube 93 and push it to the right. The pressure-bearing slider 44 is squeezed by the blocking protrusion 96. The pressure-bearing slider 44, the locking groove 46, and the locking protrusion 47 move to the left relative to the fixed component 1, overcoming the resistance of the storage spring 43. The sliding locking rod 46 tilts slightly upward, thereby forcibly sliding the locking protrusion 47 out of the locking groove 46. The flipping component 2 slides down under the action of gravity until the flipping inclined surface 26 abuts against the bottom of the outer shell body 91.
