TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of inner floating disc, in particular to an electric direct drive type full-contact inner floating disc device for storage tank. BACKGROUND
[0002] The inner floating disc is widely used in oil storage, which can effectively reduce the evaporation loss of oil gas in the storage tank. The floating disc is generally placed in the storage tank and floats on the surface of the oil product. When the oil level in the tank rises and falls due to charging and discharging, the floating disc can always cover the oil surface, thereby ensuring that the oil product is always in contact with the air to cause danger. At the same time, in the event of fire or severe impact on the storage tank, the inner floating disc can isolate the flame and maintain the stability of the oil surface to form protection. The most widely used at present is the self-floating type assembled inner floating disc, which realizes the modularization of floating disc parts, which is beneficial to manufacturing, transportation and assembly. Secondly, most of the inner floating discs currently use honeycomb structure to reduce weight while improving their strength and buoyancy. Therefore, the inner floating disc is widely used in the storage industry of volatile liquid media such as petroleum.
[0003] With the further development of China's oil and gas industry, oil storage is increasingly valued. At present, self-floating floating discs are widely used in China. Although this technology is relatively mature at present, there are still some problems in the application process. For example, the inner floating disc tilts when the oil liquid shakes or the oil liquid level rises and falls. The floating type floating disc needs to be lifted under the action of oil liquid, and there are still some deficiencies in positioning accuracy, sealing performance and reliability. It is basically impossible to realize real-time monitoring by computer and timely adjustment of the floating disc. Therefore, a device is needed to solve the above problems and make the floating disc for storage tank have better performance. SUMMARY
[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of the present application is to provide an electric direct drive type full-contact inner floating disc device for storage tank, which can effectively improve the control of the floating disc and improve the reliability.
[0005] The technical scheme adopted by the present application to solve the above problems is as follows: an electric direct drive type full-contact inner floating disc device for storage tank, which comprises a linear motion device I, a floating disc device II and a locking device III. The linear motion device I is located above the floating disc device II and connected together, and the linear motion device I realizes the active control of the lifting of the floating disc device II. The locking device III is above the floating disc device II. When the floating disc device II reaches the specified position under the driving of the linear motion device I, the locking device III is locked, thereby realizing high-precision positioning and fixing of the floating disc.
[0006] The linear motion device I includes a linear motor stator 1, the linear motor stator 1 is fixed on the motor support 3 through the first bolt 2, and the motor support 3 is connected and fixed on the inner wall boss 5 of the storage tank 10 through the second bolt 4. The special-shaped linear motor moving shaft 6 is connected on the floating disc 8 through the third bolt 7, and the up and down of the floating disc 8 can be actively controlled through the control of the linear motion device I, so that the oil product oil surface is better stabilized.
[0007] The floating disc device II includes the floating disc 8, the floating disc 8 is located below the special-shaped linear motor moving shaft 6 and is connected with the special-shaped linear motor moving shaft 6 through the third bolt 7. The floating disc 8 is provided with a sealing ring 9 on the side.
[0008] The locking device III includes an outer disc 11, an inner disc 12 is embedded in the outer disc 11, four elbow arms 14 are connected to the outer disc 11 and the inner disc 12, one end hole of the elbow arm 14 is connected with the inner disc 12, a groove on the arm body of the elbow arm 14 is connected with the outer disc 11, and a locking piece 13 is installed at the other end of the elbow arm 14. Inside the locking device III, an inner gear ring 15 is fixed on the inner disc 12 of the locking device III, three motors 16 are installed on the floating disc 8 in the floating disc device II, the motor 16 is connected with a gear 17 to drive the inner gear ring 15 to move, so as to drive the inner disc 12 to rotate, since the outer disc 11 is connected with the elbow arm 14, the elbow arm 14 will be stretched outward along with the rotation of the inner disc 12, so that the locking piece 13 connected with the end portion thereof is gradually attached to the inner wall of the storage tank 10 to achieve the fixing effect.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the application provides a full-internal floating disc device for a storage tank.
[0010] (1) Compared with the traditional floating disc for the storage tank which can only rise and fall along with the oil surface, the linear motor directly drives the floating disc to achieve rapid response in emergency, drive the floating disc to the predetermined position, and the self-lifting is also beneficial to the maintenance of the floating disc.
[0011] (2) The application adopts the electric direct drive mode, can accurately control the floating disc, and makes the floating disc tightly attached to the oil surface to prevent shaking. When filling oil into the storage tank through the oil inlet, the linear motor actively controls the floating disc to move upward to create a vacuum, which is beneficial to improve the oil injection efficiency. Similarly, when discharging oil through the oil outlet, the linear motor can control the floating disc to move downward to apply pressure to the oil surface to improve the oil discharge efficiency.
[0012] (3) The application provides a special locking device which can lock the mechanism when the linear motor drives the floating disc to the required position, prevents the whole from descending, and the locking device can also effectively reduce the deviation of the floating disc caused by the shaking of the oil surface.

[0019] Referring to Figure 1 , a tank electric direct drive full internal floating disc device, comprising linear motion device I, floating disc device II, locking device III three parts, wherein the linear motion device I is located above the floating disc device II, and the two are connected together, and the linear motion device I realizes the active control of the floating disc device II lifting. The floating disc device II is above the locking device III, when the floating disc device II reaches the designated position under the driving of the linear motion device I, the locking device III is locked, so as to realize the high-precision positioning and fixing of the floating disc.
[0020] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , the linear motion device I comprises a linear motor stator 1, the linear motor stator 1 is fixed on the motor support 3 through the first bolt 2, and the motor support 3 is connected and fixed on the inner wall boss 5 of the storage tank 10 through the second bolt 4.

The floating disc 8 is provided with a sealing ring 9 on the side surface.
[0022] Referring to Figure 5The locking device III comprises an outer disc 11, an inner disc 12 embedded in the outer disc 11, four elbow arms 14 connected to the outer disc 11 and the inner disc 12, a hole at one end of the elbow arm 14 connected to the inner disc 12, a groove on the arm body of the elbow arm 14 connected to the outer disc 11, and a locking piece 13 installed at the other end of the elbow arm 14. Inside the locking device III, an inner ring gear 15 is fixed to the inner disc 12 of the locking device III. In the floating disc device II, three motors 16 are installed on the floating disc 8, the motors 16 are connected to gears 17 to drive the inner ring gear 15 to move, thereby driving the inner disc 12 to rotate.
