Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an airtight container, and more particularly, to an airtight container suitable for storing livestock feed such as beer lees and starch lees generated at a beer company.

For example, beer lees generated at beer companies is used as feed for livestock, but since production at beer factories fluctuates depending on the season, weather, etc., the amount of beer lees generated fluctuates and feed companies are unable to produce enough. There is a problem that customers cannot be guaranteed supply unless they stockpile beer lees.
Since the economic value is around 0.00 yen, it is not possible to make a large investment in the equipment.

Simple silos for beer ships to store beer lees are commercially available, but in all conventional silos, a hole is dug in the ground and a vinyl sheet is laid down, beer lees are poured into the silo, and the vinyl sheet is placed in the silo. The beer lees is stored by wrapping it in a container and covering it with soil to isolate it from the outside air. For shipments from beer companies, a special lorry is used to transport the beer to the ordered beer ship silo and unload it.

However, the conventional simple loom has the following problems.

4) Beer lees etc. have a very strong odor, and the odor becomes even stronger when they rot, causing problems in stockpiling them in areas close to human residences.

(ii) Beer lees, etc. shipped from Heal Company are made fluid by adding a certain amount of water in consideration of loading and unloading, so that when they are unloaded from the lorry, they are still dripping with water. .Therefore, conventional simple reiros have a drainer at the bottom, which allows you to squeeze out beer dregs, etc.
is sucked directly into the ground. Therefore, depending on the installation location, groundwater pollution problems may occur.

In order to solve the conventional problems mentioned above, it is important to completely isolate beer lees etc. from the outside air and prevent its oxidation.Also, it is important to separate beer lees etc. from the beer lees etc. and drain the water that flows out from one place. When dispensing beer lees, etc., it is necessary to prevent air from entering the container containing beer lees, etc.

Therefore, according to the present invention, a tank with an open top is provided, and a flexible container made of an airtight sheet with an open top is disposed within the tank, and the open part of the flexible container is is covered with a flexible lid made of an airtight sheet, and an end of the flexible container and an end of the flexible lid are hermetically sealed by a sealing means to provide an airtight container. The sealing means for sealing the end of the flexible container and the end of the flexible lid is a sealing means for sealing the end of the flexible container and the end of the flexible lid in a water reservoir in which the end of the flexible container and the end of the flexible lid are wrapped around the outer circumference of the tank. A water seal immersed in water is preferably implemented.

In this way, since the end of the flexible container and the end of the flexible lid that covers the open part of the container are airtightly sealed by the sealing means, the contents contained in the container are prevented from oxidation. It is possible to prevent this as much as possible and to store the contents stably for a long period of time.

According to the present invention, in addition to the above-mentioned configuration, a separate water outlet is provided at the bottom of the tank and flexible container, and the outlet allows water to flow out through an on-off valve, but prevents outside air from entering. An airtight container is provided which is sealed by an isolating sealing means. As a sealing means for sealing the discharge port, a water seal is suitably implemented by immersing the discharge port in water in a water reservoir provided at the end of the tank.

Since the outlet is sealed with a sealing means that allows moisture to flow through the outlet but blocks outside air from entering, when the opening/closing valve is turned on, the outside air (from the outlet IJX) does not flow into the container, making it even more effective. It is important to prevent RM (harm) of the contents.

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the ten drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a circular flexible lid 6, and this lid 6 is made of (geometric sheet 1~), for example, a sheet made of a combination of polyester base fabric and E/■/A resin (ethylene acid-resistant vinyl copolymer resin). Alternatively, it is made of a thick vinyl sheet, and a number of holes 7 are formed around the periphery for passing a rope through and fixing the reel 6.

FIG. 2 shows a cylindrical flexible container 3 with an open top, and this container 3 is made of an airtight sheet, for example, a sheet made of a combination of polyester resin and E・■・A resin, similar to M6.

Insert the slatted board 17 through the spacer + J-16 at the bottom.
Lay it down. Beer lees B is put into a container 3, the open part of the container 3 is covered with a flexible lid 6, and a weight 11 is placed on it. The end of the container 3 and the end of the lid 6 are folded back outward from the open part of the tank 1, and each end is fixed to the tank 1 and sealed airtight. An on-off valve 18 for discharging water separated from beer lees is occasionally opened and discharged. At this time, the outlet is sealed to prevent air from entering the container 3.

FIG. 5 shows details of the V section in FIG. 4, and FIG. 6 shows details of the W section in FIG. 4. In FIG. 5, the end 3a of the flexible container 3 placed in the tank 1 and the portion 9i of the flexible lid 6;
a is folded back outward from the open part of the tank 1, and the container 3
Pass the lobe 8 through the lobe hole 4 (Fig. 2) formed in the hole 4 (Fig. 2) and the hole 7 (Fig. It is fixed to a robe hook 10 provided so as to go around the outer periphery of the tank 1. A weight, in the illustrated example, a water weight 11 filled with water in a flexible container is placed on top of the lid 6, and the lid 11 sinks over time, so it is left sagging as shown in the figure. .

A sealing means is installed to keep the inside of the container 3 airtight, and a water reservoir 12 is installed integrally with the tank 1 around the outer circumference of the open part of the tank 1.

By immersing the container 3 in water, the inside of the container 3 is isolated from the outside air and airtightly sealed. A means for replenishing water in the water reservoir 12 is provided, and a communication hole 13 is formed in the water reservoir 12, and a small tank 15 connected with the communication hole 13 and equipped with a float valve 14 serves as a water reservoir. It is integrally attached to 12. The float valve 14 is a float 14. It operates with a. When the water level in the water reservoir 12 falls, the float valve 14 is activated, water is replenished, and the water level in the water reservoir 12 is always maintained at a predetermined level.

FIG. 6 shows the details of the part (■) in FIG. 4, and a slatted board 17 is laid on the bottom of the container 3 with a spacer 16 interposed therebetween.

A discharge port 5 provided at the bottom of the container 3 is inserted into a discharge port 2 provided at the bottom of the tank 1, and is connected to a vibrator 19 hanging downward via a manually operated on-off valve 18. .

The on-off valve 18 opens occasionally to discharge water separated from the beer lees, and prevents air from entering the container 3 when the on-off valve 18 is opened. Measures have been taken. For this purpose, a water reservoir 20 is buried underground, and the water reservoir 20 is separated into two chambers 22 by a partition plate 21.
One chamber 22 is divided into 23 sections, with pipe 1 inside.
