摘要： A pneumatic storage tank for storing, transporting, and discharging pulverulent or powdered material or the like including a tank having a cylindrical side wall and upper and lower concave heads enclosing and sealing opposite ends of the cylindrical side wall, the tank adapted to be supported in a vertical position, a plurality of slope sheets within the tank, the slope sheets being sealed to the cylindrical side wall around the full circumference of the cylindrical side wall, the slope sheets being inclined downwardly from the cylindrical side wall to the central region of the tank adjacent the lower concave head of the tank, a plurality of air slides within the tank, the air slides disposed along the slope sheets between the slope sheets and extending from the cylindrical side wall of the tank downwardly toward the central region of the tank adjacent the lower concave head of the tank, wherein the slope sheets and the air slides separate the tank into an upper compartment and a lower compartment, an inlet pipe for providing the material to be stored therein into the upper compartment of the tank, a discharge pipe for removing the material from the upper compartment of the tank, the discharge line extending from a point adjacent to the slope sheets in the central region of the tank adjacent to the lower concave head of the tank, an air pipe positioned in the lower compartment of the tank, the air slides being adapted to release the air supplied thereto through the air slides into the upper compartment to suspend pulverulent material in the upper compartment, and an air nozzle located at the upper end of each of the air slides adjacent to the side wall of the tank, the air nozzle being adapted to direct air under superatmospheric pressure downward along the surface of the air slide to urge the pulverulent material downwardly from the side wall toward the central region of the tank.
