2. Description of the Related Art Silos for storing large amounts of grain are generally installed outdoors. As temperatures rise in the summer, heat is transferred from the walls of the silo to the inside, raising the temperature of the stored grain. It is desirable that grains be stored under a certain relatively low temperature range, and it is known that quality deteriorates as the temperature increases.

[0003] In order to prevent this temperature rise, conventional methods have been to provide the walls of the silo with a heat-insulating structure, or to blow low-temperature air into the grain layer deposited within the silo. For example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-25168 discloses a silo with a heat insulating wall structure in which cold air is blown into the grain layer from the bottom and taken out from the top and circulated. An overview of this is shown in Figure 4. Cold air sent out from the blower 1 is blown into the silo 3 through the duct 2, passes through the gap between the stored materials 4, reaches the upper part of the silo, and returns from there to the air conditioner 12 via the return pipe 11. Furthermore, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2-207715 discloses a method in which air whose temperature and humidity have been adjusted is sent from the top of the silo and forcibly sucked at the bottom.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] All of these methods employ a method in which air is caused to flow directly through the grain layer. For this reason, the pressure loss during passage through the highly accumulated grain layer is large, and a high-pressure blower or suction machine must be used. In addition, heat from the outside is transmitted through the walls inside the silo, and the temperature near the peripheral wall is higher than that near the center, but with the method of flowing air through the grain layer, it is difficult to correct this temperature distribution.

[Means for solving the problem] The means for achieving this purpose is to create a low-temperature silo with a double wall structure and a wall structure that allows low-temperature gas to flow into the space between the walls, and a space between the walls of this silo. This is a low-temperature storage method that maintains the space temperature at a predetermined temperature, that is, within a temperature range where grains do not deteriorate.

[Operation] When the temperature of the outside air becomes higher than the temperature inside the silo, a temperature gradient occurs throughout the silo. These gradients become larger as the temperature difference between the outside air and the center increases, but as the outside air temperature increases, the temperature not only in the vicinity of the wall but also in the center increases. When the temperature inside the silo increases in this way, grain deterioration occurs, so it is necessary to prevent this.

Blowing cold air or air with adjusted humidity and temperature into the grain layer is a direct method and is a simple method if you only want to cool the grain, but the temperature from the vicinity of the wall to the center It is difficult to modify the slope. This situation is shown in FIG. In the figure, the vertical axis is the temperature, the horizontal axis is the cross-sectional position of the silo, and Tcl and Til are the temperatures of the center of the silo and the inner wall of the silo, respectively, relative to the low outside temperature Tol. Also, Tch, T
ih is the temperature of the center and inner wall of the silo relative to the high outside temperature Toh, and Tm is the appropriate temperature for storage, Tu
is the critical temperature at which grains do not deteriorate. If the outside air is not that high, even if the temperature in the center is maintained at the appropriate temperature Tm, the temperature gradient inside the silo will be small and all of the stored grain will reach Tm.
Keep it nearby. However, when the outside air temperature Toh increases, the temperature Tih on the inner wall surface may exceed the limit temperature Tu. To prevent this, either lower the temperature of the blown air to below the appropriate temperature Tm or increase the flow rate of the blown air. It is necessary to do so.

[0009] If the walls of the silo have a double structure and the space between the walls has a wall structure that allows low-temperature air to flow, it becomes easy to control the temperature of this space. An overview of this silo is shown in Figure 1. The low temperature gas sent out from the blower 1 is guided through a duct 2 to a space 8 between an outer wall 6 and an inner wall 7 of the silo 3, and is discharged from an outlet 5 at the other end. The gas flow may be directed from the bottom to the top of the space 8, or the opposite structure may be used. Alternatively, the gas discharged from the space 8 may be temperature-adjusted again and returned to the blower 1 for circulation. A temperature regulator may be placed in front of the blower 1, or the space 8 may have an appropriate cooling capacity. In order to make the temperature in the space 8 uniform, it is also good to install a plurality of inlets and outlets. Furthermore, since gas only needs to flow through the space 8, a strength member may be incorporated therein.

[0010] When the outside temperature is likely to rise, such as during the summer,
If the temperature of the space 8 between the walls of the double wall as described above is maintained at a predetermined temperature suitable for grain storage below the critical temperature, the temperature gradient due to the transverse position inside the silo will be virtually eliminated, and the grain will The whole thing is stored at the right temperature. This situation is shown in FIG. In the figure, Ta is the temperature of the space 8, and other temperatures are indicated by the same symbols as in FIG. Even if the outside air temperature Toh increases, the temperature gradient between the outer surface of the outer wall and the space only increases, and the temperature Tih of the inner wall inner surface is maintained at approximately the same temperature as the space temperature Ta. That is, Tih is the appropriate temperature Tm
and becomes almost equal to the temperature Tch at the center. Therefore, all of the grains are maintained at around the appropriate temperature Tm, and there is no need to excessively cool some of the grains. In this way, since it is sufficient to maintain the space temperature Ta, it is not necessarily necessary to flow almost any low-temperature gas. For example, if the space 8 is provided with an appropriate cooling capacity, flowing water has no meaning. Although air is cheap and safe, other gases such as liquefied gas, dry ice, or other low-temperature substances can be used alone or in combination, or as a refrigerant. The method of using low-temperature materials is convenient when it is not desired to use a cooling device depending on the installation environment or scale of the silo.

Another advantage of flowing cold gas into the space between the walls is that less pressure is required for delivery. For example, when air is blown into a silo with an inner diameter of 6 m filled with soybeans approximately 5 mm in diameter at a cylinder speed of 0.1 m/s, the pressure loss per unit layer height is 400 Pa/m.
It also becomes. In contrast, the same flow rate (2.8 m3/s
) is allowed to flow through the space between the walls provided on the outer periphery of the silo with an interval of 0.1 m, the pressure loss is only 0.6 Pa/m.

Furthermore, even if the stored items do not like moisture absorption or oxidation, the gas does not come into direct contact with the stored items, so they can be safely stored at low temperatures.

Reference numeral 9 denotes a cold and hot pipe, which is a corrugated pipe and is placed in a space 8 between the outer wall 6 and the inner wall 7 of the silo 3, and liquid natural gas used for another purpose is passed through the cold and hot pipe 9. The outside air was guided from the blower 1 to the space 8 through the duct 2 in order to prevent it from becoming too cold due to the cooling and heating pipes 9. That is,
The temperature of the space 8 was mainly controlled by the amount of low-temperature natural gas passing through the cold pipe 9, and finely adjusted by the amount of high-temperature outside air sent from the blower 1.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, the walls of the silo have a double structure and the temperature of the space between the walls is maintained at the appropriate storage temperature, so even if the outside air temperature rises, there is no temperature gradient inside the silo. Therefore, all stores are kept at a safe temperature and there is no need for excessive cooling of the parts. Furthermore, even when the temperature is adjusted by flowing cold air, the blowing pressure is low because the cold air is not blown into the stored material layer where the resistance is high but is sent into the space where there is almost no resistance. As described above, the present invention has a great effect in that it is possible to efficiently and accurately maintain all stored items at a constant low temperature.
