Abstract
A supporting assembly for a hollow tank body includes a supporting body (2) and supporting ends (1) provided at two ends of the supporting body. The supporting ends are provided with stepped transition assemblies (4) connected to the supporting body. The supporting body is configured with a hollow structure. The supporting body includes a supporting main body (5) and a base (6). The supporting main body is configured with a cylindrical structure or a cylindrical structure with a corrugated structure in the middle. With this structure, the deformation of the hollow tank body under the relatively high overpressure and the low negative pressure can be avoided, and the shape stability of the whole product can be enhanced. Meanwhile, the supporting structure needs less material, and has a light weight and lowered cost.
