Of course, these are merely embodiments or examples and are not intended to be limiting. Additionally, repeated reference numerals, such as repeated numbers and / or letters, may be used in different embodiments. These repetitions are for the purpose of simple and clear description of this utility model and do not represent a specific relationship between the different embodiments and / or structures discussed.

[0020] like Figures 1-4 The storage tank for plastic granules shown includes a tank body 1 and a support 2 for supporting the tank body 1. A discharge cylinder 3 is provided at the lower end of the tank body 1. The support 2 includes four support columns 4 evenly distributed around the side wall of the tank body 1. A cross support frame 5 is connected between the four support columns 4. A fixing ring 6 is provided at the center of the cross support frame 5. The discharge cylinder 3 is fixedly sleeved on the fixing ring 6. A rotating sleeve 7 is rotatably sleeved at the lower end of the discharge cylinder 3. An inclined downward discharge pipe 8 is provided on one side of the rotating sleeve 7.

[0021] According to the above structure, the support 2 adopts four support columns 4 evenly distributed along the circumference of the side wall of the tank 1, and a cross support frame 5 is connected between the four support columns 4, replacing the traditional crossbeam structure at the bottom of the support 1; this design reduces obstruction to the operator, allowing the operator to easily approach the discharge pipe from multiple directions, significantly improving the convenience of operation.

[0022] Meanwhile, a fixed ring 6 is set at the center of the cross support frame 5, and the discharge cylinder 3 is fixedly sleeved on the fixed ring 6, which greatly improves the connection strength between the tank body 1 and the support 2. At the same time, a rotating sleeve 7 is rotatably sleeved at the lower end of the discharge cylinder 3, and a downwardly inclined discharge pipe 8 is set on one side of the rotating sleeve 7. By rotating the sleeve 7, the discharge pipe 8 can be rotated 360°, thus adapting to the discharge requirements in different directions and perfectly preserving the flexibility of discharge.

[0023] Although the traditional crossbeams have been eliminated, the combination of four supporting columns 4 and cross support frame 5 still provides reliable support for the tank, ensuring the strength and stability of the overall structure of the storage tank and preventing the strength from being reduced due to structural changes.

[0024] In this invention, a locking component is also provided on the fixed ring 6. The locking component is used to lock the rotating sleeve 7. The locking component can lock the rotating sleeve 7, so that the discharge pipe 8 remains fixed after being adjusted to a suitable discharge direction, avoiding the discharge pipe 8 from rotating randomly due to accidental contact or other reasons, and ensuring the stability and accuracy of the discharge process.

[0025] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes a retaining ring 31 located on the outer edge of the fixed ring 6 and extending downward. A plurality of through holes 32 are evenly distributed along the circumference on the outer wall of the retaining ring 31. A locking hole 33 is provided on the outer side of the rotating sleeve 7. The assembly also includes a locking pin 34, one end of which passes through the through hole 32 and is inserted into the locking hole 33.

[0026] A retaining ring 31 extending downwards is welded to the outer edge of the fixed ring 6. Several through holes 32 are evenly opened along the circumference on the outer wall of the retaining ring 31. A locking hole 33 is opened at the corresponding position on the outer side of the rotating sleeve 7. In use, one end of the locking pin 34 is inserted into the locking hole 33 of the rotating sleeve 7 after passing through the through hole 32 on the retaining ring 31, so as to lock the rotating sleeve 7. When it is necessary to adjust the direction of the discharge pipe 8, the locking pin 34 is pulled out, the rotating sleeve 7 is rotated to the appropriate position, and then the locking pin 34 is reinserted to lock.

[0027] This locking assembly, consisting of a retaining ring 31, a through hole 32, a locking hole 33, and a locking pin 34, has a simple structure, low cost, and is easy to operate. By inserting the locking pin 34 into the through hole 32 and the locking hole 33, the rotating sleeve 7 can be reliably locked. Pulling out the locking pin 34 will unlock the sleeve, making it easy to quickly adjust the direction of the discharge pipe 8.

The upper reinforcing rods 41 connect the cross support frame 5 and the tank body 1, enhance the connection strength between the support frame 2 and the tank body 1, make the tank body 1 more stable during the storage and discharge process, improve the overall stability of the storage tank structure, and reduce the safety hazards that may be caused by the shaking of the tank body.

[0029] Furthermore, a plurality of lower reinforcing rods 51 are provided at the lower end of the cross support frame 5, and the other end of the lower reinforcing rods 51 is fixedly connected to the support column 4; the lower reinforcing rods 51 connect the cross support frame 5 and the support column 4, enhance the connection strength between the cross support frame 5 and the support column 4, further improve the overall stability of the bracket 2, enable the storage tank to withstand greater pressure when carrying heavy objects, and extend the service life of the storage tank.

[0030] In this utility model, a slide gate valve 61 is inserted into the discharge pipe 8. The slide gate valve 61 is installed on the discharge pipe 8, and the opening and closing of the discharge pipe 8 can be conveniently and quickly controlled by manually operating the slide gate valve 61, thereby controlling the discharge amount and discharge speed of plastic granules to meet the needs of different production scenarios. At the same time, it can effectively block the flow of materials during equipment maintenance or repair.

[0031] An observation window 71 is provided on one side of the tank 1. The observation window 71 allows operators to observe the storage amount and material status of the plastic granules in the tank 1 at any time without opening the tank, reducing the contact between the material and the outside world and avoiding problems such as moisture and contamination. At the same time, it facilitates timely monitoring of the storage situation and reasonable arrangement of production plans.
