[0002] In the transportation industry, asphalt is an important material for paving roads. Asphalt can only be used for road construction after being heated and melted. In industries such as carbon and metallurgy, liquid asphalt is often used as a binder in the production of carbon blocks for electrolytic aluminum anodes and carbon products such as anodes, cathodes and electrodes. Its quality and supply stability have an important impact on the molding quality and yield of the products. Asphalt is in a solid state at room temperature and needs to be melted into a liquid by storage and melting devices to enhance fluidity and reduce viscosity to meet the requirements of the production process.

[0003] In existing asphalt storage and melting devices, the asphalt inside heats up slowly during the heating and melting process, prolonging the melting time. Furthermore, during the melting process, the asphalt tends to stick to the inner wall of the storage tank, affecting the quality of the next batch of asphalt melted. Therefore, it is necessary to design an asphalt storage and melting device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

One end of the limiting rod 19 is welded to one side of the toothed plate 10.

[0024] Specifically: When it is necessary to melt the asphalt in the storage tank 5, the heater 3 is activated to heat the storage tank 5. When the temperature inside the storage tank 5 is sufficient to melt the asphalt, the first motor 7 is activated. The first motor 7 drives the rotating rod 8 to rotate, and the gear 9 rotates with the rotating rod 8. Since the gear 9 and the toothed plate 10 are meshed, the gear 9 drives the toothed plate 10 to move downwards. The toothed plate 10 drives the stirring roller 14 and the scraper 16 to move into the storage tank 5. When the stirring roller 14 moves into the storage tank 5, the second motor 12 is activated.

After the asphalt inside the storage tank 5 has melted, the operator turns the handle 28, which drives the rotating plate 27 to rotate. The screw 22 rotates with the rotating plate 27. Since the screw 22 and the connecting plate 23 are threadedly engaged, the screw 22 drives the connecting plate 23 to move. The connecting plate 23 drives the connecting block 24 and the clamping plate 25 to move. The clamping plate 25 separates from the storage tank 5, so that the operator can take out the storage tank 5.
