The reinforcing ring 113 is provided on the cylinder 111 of the can 11 to increase the strength of the can 11.
The tank body 11 is provided with a sewage suction port, a sewage discharge port and a vacuumizing interface.
Specifically, the dirt suction port is opened at the top of the tank body 11.

The first valve member 132 is disposed on the bending portion to avoid the frame 12, thereby saving space. When the tank container 1 is vacuumized, the first valve 132 is opened, and the vacuum line 13 communicates with the tank 11 to perform the vacuum operation, thereby generating a negative pressure in the tank 11.
The vacuum pumping pipeline 13 is provided with a pressure gauge 135 for observing the pressure value in the tank body 11.
Referring to fig. 3 and 9, along the transverse direction of the tank 11, the vacuum pumping pipeline 13 and the dirt suction pipeline 14 are respectively located on two opposite sides of the transverse central axis of the tank 11. By adopting the design, the vacant space between the frame 12 and the tank body 11 is fully utilized, and the space is saved by reasonable arrangement.
The vacuumizing pipeline 13 is also provided with an overcharge protection device, when the liquid in the tank body 11 reaches the highest allowable liquid level, the overcharge protection device cuts off the communication between the vacuumizing pipeline 13 and the interior of the tank body 11, the tank body 11 stops being vacuumized, and then the external substances are stopped being continuously conveyed into the tank body 11.
In this embodiment, the overcharge protection device is a floating ball 134 disposed in the tank 11, and when the liquid in the tank 11 reaches the maximum allowable liquid level, the floating ball 134 blocks the vacuum-pumping pipeline 13, and stops vacuum-pumping, and the sewage-sucking pipeline 14 loses sewage-sucking power and stops liquid feeding. Because the vacuum-pumping pipeline 13 is always communicated with the gas phase space, the overcharge protection device is arranged above the vacuum-pumping pipeline 13 and is connected with the positive and negative pressure gauges 135 at a position which is convenient for people to observe, so that the internal pressure condition of the tank body 11 can be known at any time, and the operation and the protection of the tank body 11 are facilitated. In other embodiments, an overcharge protection device may be disposed on the sewage suction pipeline 14, and the sewage suction pipeline 14 may be closed when the sewage suction pipeline is full to protect the sewage suction pipeline from overcharge.

Specifically, the sewage suction line 14 includes a vertical pipe section 144 and a horizontal pipe section 145 that are vertically connected. Wherein, the horizontal pipe section 145 extends along the axial direction of the tank body 11, and the free end of the horizontal pipe section 145 is the sewage sucking outlet end. The vertical pipe section 144 is located in the accommodating space, and the free end of the vertical pipe section 144 is the sewage suction inlet end 141.
Referring to fig. 11, the horizontal pipe section 145 is located at the top of the tank 11, the vertical pipe section 144 is located in the accommodating space, and the dirt suction inlet 141 is located at the bottom of the tank 11, so that the dirt suction inlet 141 of the dirt suction pipeline 14 is lower than the dirt suction outlet 143, and therefore, the liquid in the dirt suction pipeline 14 flows back to the outside under the condition of no pressure, so that no residual liquid exists in the dirt suction pipeline 14 after the operation is finished, and the risk of blocking the dirt suction pipeline 14 due to liquid solidification is reduced. Further, the dirt suction outlet 143 is disposed at the top of the tank 11, and therefore is located above the highest allowable filling level in the tank 11, so as to prevent the liquid in the tank 11 from flowing back into the pipeline due to splashing or the like.
Specifically, the vertical segments extend to the corners of the frame 12 to connect with the horizontal segments. That is, the vertical section and the horizontal section of the sewage suction pipeline 14 are connected at the corner of the frame 12, the space of the frame 12 is fully utilized, and the whole volume of the tank container 1 is reduced.

The sewage pipeline 15 is provided with a second valve 142 for controlling the on-off of the sewage pipeline 15 and the interior of the tank 11. When the tank container 1 performs a sewage discharge operation, the second valve 142 is opened, and the sewage discharge pipeline 15 communicates with the inside of the tank 11 to discharge the substances in the tank 11 to the outside.
The sewage pipeline 15 is arranged at the first end of the tank body 11, the end manhole 115 is arranged at the second end of the tank body 11, the space at the two ends of the tank body 11 is fully utilized, the design and manufacturing difficulty is reduced, the use requirements and the use frequency of the end manhole 115 and the sewage pipeline 15 are different, and the end manhole 115 and the sewage pipeline are respectively arranged at the two ends of the tank body 11 and are safer to use.
