With the widespread application of fracturing technology and the continuous increase of large-scale fracturing sites, the requirements for the displacement, pressure, and continuous injection volume of fracturing equipment are also constantly increasing. In response to the problems of waste and environmental pollution in existing fracturing sand storage and transportation technology, low continuity, and high cost, through in-depth research on the fracturing site, a sand storage and transportation and automatic feeding equipment has been designed to ensure the continuity of sand supply for large-scale fracturing, under the premise of sand volume, cost control, reusability, and no pollution. It has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and operates safely and reliably. It adopts a unique self dumping sand storage and supply box structure design. The self dumping sand storage and supply box is suitable for on-site storage, transportation, and rapid unloading, and is suitable for continuous and large displacement fracturing operations. It not only solves the problem of large storage and transportation workload commonly used in domestic fracturing operations, but also solves the problem of low material discharge efficiency caused by discontinuous puncture of sand bags, saving costs for users, Safe and environmentally friendly, greatly improving the efficiency of fracturing operations.
