Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of carbon nanotube powder storage technology, and in particular to a moisture-proof storage tank for carbon nanotube powder. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon nanotube powder is a nanomaterial composed of carbon elements. Its basic structural unit is a coaxial hollow tube formed by rolling up one or more layers of graphene sheets. The diameter of the carbon nanotubes in this powder is typically between a few nanometers and tens of nanometers, while the length can range from micrometers to millimeters, or even longer. Carbon nanotubes themselves possess extremely high mechanical strength, excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, and also exhibit good chemical and thermal stability.

[0003] In practical applications, carbon nanotubes are often stored and transported in powder form. However, due to their extremely high specific surface area and nanoscale fibrous structure, these powders are highly sensitive to moisture in the air and readily adsorb water molecules. This moisture adsorption leads to severe agglomeration of the carbon nanotubes, which not only affects the dispersion performance of the powder but also reduces its inherent key physical properties such as electrical and thermal conductivity. Currently, conventional powder storage containers (such as ordinary plastic or glass bottles) mostly use simple cap-sealing structures, which are insufficient to effectively isolate moisture. Especially in high-humidity environments, ambient moisture can easily seep in slowly through the tiny gaps in the container cap, causing the stored carbon nanotube powder to become damp and deteriorate.

[0004] Therefore, a moisture-proof storage container for carbon nanotube powder with a dual moisture-proof mechanism is needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing powder storage containers (such as ordinary plastic bottles or glass bottles) which mostly use simple cap sealing structures, their sealing performance is not effective in preventing moisture, especially in high humidity environments, where ambient moisture can easily seep in slowly through the tiny gaps in the container cap, causing the carbon nanotube powder stored inside to become damp and deteriorate, this utility model provides a carbon nanotube powder moisture-proof storage tank with a dual moisture-proof mechanism.

[0006] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a moisture-proof storage tank for carbon nanotube powder, comprising a storage tank, an isolation cover, handles, a rubber ring, and an observation plate. The top of the storage tank has an isolation cover, and two handles are fixedly connected to the top of the isolation cover. A rubber ring is provided on the isolation cover, and the rubber ring is in close contact with the top of the storage tank. An observation plate is embedded in the front of the storage tank. It also includes a connecting frame, a connecting rod, a rotating plate, a fixing plate, and a storage frame. Connecting frames are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the storage tank. A connecting rod is rotatably provided at the bottom of the connecting frame, and a rotating plate is fixedly connected to the connecting rod. A fixing plate is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating plate. A storage frame is placed inside the connecting frame, and the storage frame is used to place desiccant.

[0007] As a further preferred embodiment, it also includes a sealing plug, a pull cord, and a rubber plate. The sealing plug is pluggable on the top of the isolation cover, and a pull cord is connected to the top of the sealing plug. The other end of the pull cord is connected to the isolation cover, and a rubber plate is provided at the bottom of the sealing plug.

[0008] As a further preferred embodiment, it also includes a connecting plate, a movable plate, and a shielding plate. The connecting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage tank, and movable plates are slidably installed on both the left and right sides of the connecting plate. A shielding plate is fixedly connected to the front of the movable plate, and the shielding plate shields the observation plate.

[0009] As a further preferred option, it also includes damping rings, with two damping rings fitted on the connecting rod.

[0010] As a further preferred option, a stabilizing pad is also included, with the bottom of the connecting plate adhered to the stabilizing pad.

[0011] As a further preferred option, it also includes a non-slip sleeve, which is fitted onto the handle.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a moisture-proof storage tank for carbon nanotube powder, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. The rubber ring on the isolation cover is tightly fitted with the top of the storage tank to form a sealing layer, which effectively prevents external humid air from entering the tank. At this time, the desiccant in the storage frame continuously absorbs the trace amounts of moisture that may remain or seep into the tank, further improving the moisture-proof effect. Through the dual moisture-proof mechanism of physical sealing and internal moisture absorption, the carbon nanotube powder is kept dry and dispersed during long-term storage, avoiding moisture and agglomeration.

[0013] 2. By reinserting the sealing plug into the feed port, the rubber plate at its bottom seals the feed port, effectively preventing external moisture from entering the storage tank through the feed port and further improving the moisture-proof sealing performance of the device.

[0014] 3. When the shield is closed, it can effectively block external light from entering, preventing carbon nanotube powder from photo-oxidation or degradation due to long-term light exposure; at the same time, it can prevent dust from adhering to the surface of the observation plate and maintain a clear field of vision.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, terms such as "setting," "installing," "connecting," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0022] Example 1: A moisture-proof storage container for carbon nanotube powder, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-5 The system includes a storage tank 1, an isolation cover 2, handles 3, rubber rings 4, and an observation plate 5. The storage tank 1 has an isolation cover 2 on its top, with two handles 3 fixedly connected to the top of the isolation cover 2. A rubber ring 4 is installed on the isolation cover 2, making tight contact with the top of the storage tank 1. An observation plate 5 is embedded in the front of the storage tank 1, allowing observation of the storage status, color, or clumping of the carbon nanotube powder inside without opening the tank. The system also includes a connecting frame 6, a connecting rod 7, a rotating plate 8, a fixing plate 81, and a storage frame 9. Connecting rods 6 and 7 are fixedly connected to both sides of the storage tank 1. The frame 6 has a connecting rod 7 rotatably mounted at its lower part. A rotating plate 8 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 7, and a fixing plate 81 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating plate 8. A storage box 9 is placed inside the connecting frame 6 for storing desiccant. Two damping rings 10 are fitted on the connecting rod 7 to provide rotational resistance, allowing the rotating plate 8 to remain stably at any angle after rotation, preventing it from automatically returning to its original position due to shaking, and ensuring safe and stable use. The handle 3 is fitted with an anti-slip sleeve 18 to improve grip comfort and operational safety, especially when operating with gloves.

[0023] When storage tank 1 is needed, first rotate the rotating plate 8 to open the connecting frame 6, and place the storage frame 9 containing the desiccant into it. Then, rotate the rotating plate 8 in the opposite direction to close the connecting frame 6. Next, open the isolation cover 2 and pour the carbon nanotube powder into the storage tank 1. After pouring, close the isolation cover 2, ensuring that the rubber ring 4 on the isolation cover 2 fits tightly against the top of the storage tank 1, forming the first highly efficient and airtight sealing layer. This effectively prevents external humid air from entering the tank. At this time, the desiccant in the storage frame 9 continuously absorbs any trace amounts of moisture that may remain or seep into the tank, further enhancing the moisture-proof effect. Through the dual moisture-proof mechanism of physical sealing and internal moisture absorption, the carbon nanotube powder is kept dry and dispersed during long-term storage, preventing it from becoming damp and agglomerated.

[0024] Example 2: Based on Example 1, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 4 It also includes a sealing plug 11, a pull rope 12 and a rubber plate 13. The sealing plug 11 is pluggable on the top of the isolation cover 2. The top of the sealing plug 11 is connected to the pull rope 12. The other end of the pull rope 12 is connected to the isolation cover 2 to prevent the sealing plug 11 from being lost after being removed and to facilitate use. The bottom of the sealing plug 11 is provided with a rubber plate 13.

[0025] When carbon nanotube powder needs to be removed, pull out the sealing plug 11 to expose the feeding port on the isolation cover 2. The required powder can then be taken out through this port. After the feeding is completed, reinsert the sealing plug 11 into the feeding port. The rubber plate 13 at the bottom of the sealing plug will then seal the feeding port, effectively preventing external moisture from entering the storage tank 1 through the feeding port and further improving the moisture-proof and sealing performance of the device.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 It also includes a connecting plate 14, a movable plate 15, and a shielding plate 16. The bottom of the storage tank 1 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 14. Movable plates 15 are slidably arranged on both the left and right sides of the connecting plate 14. The front side of the movable plate 15 is fixedly connected to the shielding plate 16, which shields the observation plate 5. A stabilizing pad 17 is glued to the bottom of the connecting plate 14 to increase the friction between the tank and the placement surface, and to play a role in anti-slip, shock absorption, and preventing tipping.

[0027] By pushing the movable plate 15, the shielding plate 16 is opened and closed, thereby shielding or revealing the observation plate 5. When the shielding plate 16 is closed, it can effectively block the entry of external light and prevent the carbon nanotube powder from photo-oxidation or degradation due to long-term light exposure. At the same time, it avoids dust adhering to the surface of the observation plate 5, keeping the field of vision clear, thus taking into account both light protection and visual management needs.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
