[0001] The present invention relates to an oil storage tank device. Background Art

[0002] A floating production vessel is a ship that integrates production processing, storage and external transportation, as well as living and power supply.

[0003] Currently, additional oil storage tanks are generally a large whole for storing oil. However, on floating production storage and offloading vessels, due to the limited space of the floating production storage and offloading vessels, sometimes part of the space is not sufficient to accommodate a larger additional oil storage tank, and the remaining space cannot be used for oil storage, resulting in waste of space. Most of the current additional oil storage tanks are not easily detachable, making it impossible to utilize this space. Summary of the Invention

[0004] An object of the present invention is to provide an additional oil storage tank with a detachable function to overcome the defect that the oil storage tank is not easily detachable and separable.

[0005] The technical solution to achieve the above object is: an additional oil storage tank with a detachable function, including an oil storage tank body, which includes a bottom fixing mechanism, a matching mechanism and an unlocking mechanism;

[0006] The bottom fixing mechanism is arranged at the bottom end of the oil storage tank body, and the bottom fixing mechanism is used to fix the oil storage tank body;

[0007] The matching mechanism is arranged on the outer wall of the oil storage tank body, and the matching mechanism is used to fixedly combine two oil storage tank bodies;

[0008] The unlocking mechanism is arranged on the outer wall of the oil storage tank body, and the unlocking mechanism is used to unlock the matching mechanism.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom fixing mechanism includes a tray and a limiting screw. The bottom end of the oil storage tank body is connected with a tray, and the outer wall of the tray is threadedly connected with a limiting screw.

[0010] Preferably, the matching mechanism includes a first fitting and a second fitting, and the first fitting and the second fitting are respectively located on two symmetrical side walls of the oil storage tank body.

[0011] Preferably, the first fitting includes a T-slot, a stop block, a placement hole, a limiting spring, an inclined plate and a stop piece. Two T-slots distributed in an array are opened on the outer wall of the oil storage tank body. One end of the T-slot is connected with a stop block. Two symmetrically distributed placement holes are opened on the inner wall of the T-slot. The inner wall of the placement hole is connected with a limiting spring. One end of the limiting spring is connected with an inclined plate. A stop piece is connected to the inner wall of the T-slot, and the stop piece is located on one side of one of the placement holes.

[0012] Preferably, the second fitting includes a plug board, a limiting hole, an L-shaped plate, a return spring and a bottom plate. Two plug boards distributed in an array are connected to the outer wall of the oil storage tank body. Two limiting holes distributed in an array are formed in the outer wall of the plug board. An L-shaped plate is slidably connected to the outer surface of the plug board. The outer wall of the L-shaped plate is slidably connected to the plug board. A return spring is connected to the outer wall of the L-shaped plate. One end of the return spring is connected to the bottom plate. The bottom plate is fixedly connected to the plug board. The L-shaped plate is located on one side close to one of the limiting holes.

[0013] Preferably, the unlocking mechanism includes a through hole, a connecting rod, a square groove, a hydraulic cylinder, a push rod, a push block and a guide rod. A through hole is formed in the outer wall of the oil storage tank body. The inside of the through hole communicates with the placement hole. A connecting rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the through hole. A square groove is formed in the outer wall of the oil storage tank body. The square groove communicates with the through hole. A hydraulic cylinder is connected to the inner wall of the square groove. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to a push rod. One end of the push rod is connected to a push block. The outer wall of the push rod penetrates through the connecting rod. A guide rod is connected to the inner wall of the through hole. The outer wall of the guide rod penetrates through the connecting rod. The bottom end of the connecting rod is connected to the inclined plate.

[0014] Preferably, the plug board and the T-shaped groove are staggeredly distributed with respect to the oil storage tank body. The plug board is located below the T-shaped groove.

[0015] Preferably, the thickness of the plug board is less than the depth of the T-shaped groove.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0017] 1. The bottom fixing mechanism is used to fix the oil storage tank body on the deck of the floating production ship. The matching mechanism is used to fixedly combine two oil storage tank bodies. Moreover, the matching mechanism can be disassembled, which is convenient for moving the oil storage tank body. The unlocking mechanism is used to unlock the combination of the matching mechanism, so that the first fitting and the second fitting are separated from each other, which is convenient for unlocking the oil storage tank body.

[0018] 2. The forklift is inserted into the tray to move the oil storage tank body. The plug board is inserted into the T-shaped groove. The plug board will squeeze two inclined plates into the placement hole and compress the limiting spring. At this time, since the L-shaped plate blocks the first limiting hole entering the T-shaped groove, the first inclined plate encountered cannot be squeezed into the first limiting hole entering the T-shaped groove by the limiting spring and can only enter the second limiting hole entering the T-shaped groove. Then, the L-shaped plate is squeezed by the retaining piece. The L-shaped plate moves and compresses the return spring. At this time, the other inclined plate will be squeezed into the first limiting hole entering the T-shaped groove by the limiting spring. When the two oil storage tank bodies are fixed together, only the plug board needs to be inserted parallel to the T-shaped groove, which is convenient for fixing the two oil storage tank bodies. Thus, the two oil storage tank bodies are fixedly connected together, which is convenient for transportation and movement.

[0019] 3. When multiple oil storage tank bodies need to be disassembled, first start the hydraulic cylinder. The hydraulic cylinder drives the push rod to move a little, and the push rod drives the push block to pull the connecting rod to move. The connecting rod drives the inclined plate to be pulled backward, so that the inclined plate is disengaged from the limiting hole. At this time, pulling one of the oil storage tank bodies can disengage the insertion plate and the T-slot, thus facilitating the disassembly and separation of the two oil storage tank bodies.
