When setting up the structure, a push rod seat A and a ranging pendulum assembly B are made respectively. The push rod seat A is connected to the cargo tank top plate C. When the ship cargo tank expands, the push rod seat A moves synchronously with the position of the cargo tank top plate C. The ranging pendulum assembly B includes a fixed rod 6. The upper end of the fixed rod 6 is connected to the lower part of the deck beam panel D. The position of the fixed rod 6 is fixed and will not change. A marking scale plate 9 is set at the lower end of the fixed rod 6, and a scale 8 is set on the marking scale plate 9. The lower end of the fixed rod 6 is connected to the pendulum 4. When the pendulum is in the initial state, the pendulum pointer 7 at one end of the pendulum 4 is aligned with the scale 8, the pendulum pointer 7 and the scale 8 are in the initial position, and the other end of the pendulum 4 is against the push rod seat A. When measuring the expansion amount, the push rod seat A and the ranging pendulum assembly B need to cooperate to complete it.Specifically, according to the actual needs of different ship cargo tanks E, multiple expansion measurement points can be selected, and ship cargo tank expansion measurement devices are arranged at different expansion measurement points, each ship cargo tank expansion measurement device includes a corresponding top rod seat A and a ranging pendulum assembly B; the top rod seat A needs to be fixed on the top plate C of the cargo tank to be measured, the top rod seat A and the cargo tank top plate C are integrated, the expansion of the ship cargo tank E is reflected in the upward movement distance of the top rod seat A, the fixing rod 6 of the ranging pendulum assembly B is fixed to the lower part of the deck beam panel D, the fixing rod structure is fixed, and the pendulum 4 is fastened to the fixing rod 6 by the bolt and nut assembly 5, one end of the pendulum 4 is fitted and rested on the upper end of the top rod 3 of the top rod seat A, and the pendulum pointer 7 at the other end of the pendulum 4 is aligned with the scale 8 on the marking scale plate 9; the pendulum and the fixed rod are fixed by the bolt and nut assembly, and when the pendulum 4 is not subjected to force, the pendulum 4 and the fixed rod 6 are in the initial The initial position is displayed between the pendulum pointer 7 and the scale 8 of all measuring points. Then, the ship cargo tank E is heated. As the ship cargo tank E expands due to heat, the push rod seat A moves up synchronously with the expansion of the ship cargo tank E due to heat, and the push rod 3 of the push rod seat A pushes the pendulum rod 4 to rotate relative to the fixed rod 6.

The scale 8 is arranged vertically, so that the expansion amount of the ship cargo tank E can be measured intuitively and accurately, and the expansion amount of multiple measuring points can be measured.
[0041] The actual expansion value H of the ship cargo tank E is not less than the value h calculated by the following formula:
[0042] h = 1.1 × 10 -5 ×K×(temp-20)×Lmm
[0043] In the formula: h——heat expansion of the frame in mm;
[0044] K——Material coefficient (1 for steel and 0.8 for non-steel);
[0045] temp——operating temperature,
[0046] As a specific example, for example, the operating temperature of the asphalt ship cargo tank is 180°C.
[0047] The measuring points in other areas are selected according to the actual working temperature, that is, different working temperatures can be selected for different materials;
[0048] L is the span of the plate rack. When calculating, the value is the maximum value in the length or width direction of the plate rack in mm.

If it is less than , it means that the expansion volume meets the requirements and the material meets the requirements for ship cargo tank manufacturing. In this way, the material for ship cargo tank manufacturing can be judged conveniently, quickly and accurately.
[0050] The present invention also relates to a method for measuring the expansion of a ship cargo tank with simple steps, which can conveniently and reliably realize the measurement of the expansion of a ship cargo tank, and provide an important basis for studying the selection of steel materials and the optimization of structural forms in high-temperature areas, so that steel materials suitable for the high-temperature environment of ships can be selected in a targeted manner to manufacture cargo tanks, improve the high-temperature resistance, strength and durability of cargo tanks, better withstand the impact of high temperatures, reduce the risk of deformation and damage, and improve the overall performance and service life of asphalt ships. The measurement steps of the ship cargo tank expansion measurement method are as follows:
[0051] S1. Make a mandrel seat A and a ranging swing arm assembly B, and respectively set the mandrel seat A and the ranging swing arm assembly B at multiple measuring points on the top plate C of the cargo tank;
[0052] S2. Fix the mandrel seat A to the top plate C of the cargo tank to be measured, fix the fixing rod 6 of the ranging swing rod assembly B to the lower part of the deck beam panel D, fasten the swing rod 4 to the fixing rod 6 with the bolt and nut assembly 5, and place one end of the swing rod 4 on the upper end of the mandrel 3 of the mandrel seat A, and align the swing rod pointer 7 at the other end of the swing rod 4 with the scale 8 on the marking scale plate 9;

[0055] S5. Stop heating the cargo tank E, cool the cargo tank E to room temperature, and record the position data of the pendulum pointer 7 and the scale 8 at each measuring point. The position change data of the pendulum pointer 4 and the scale 8 are the expansion amounts of the cargo tank E at each measuring point.
[0056] The ship cargo tank expansion measuring device described in the present invention, on the one hand, provides a practical solution for the technical research of key parts of asphalt ships and actual measurement in high temperature areas. Through this solution, the changes in key parts of asphalt ships under different working conditions, especially the actual conditions in high temperature areas, can be understood more accurately. This helps to discover potential problems in a timely manner and provide strong guarantees for the safe operation of ships. On the other hand, it provides an important basis for studying the selection of steel materials and the optimization of structural forms in high temperature areas. After mastering the detailed data of the high temperature area, it is possible to select steel materials that are more suitable for high temperature environments in a targeted manner to improve the high temperature resistance, strength and durability of the steel. At the same time, the structural form is optimized according to the actual measurement results to make the structure more reasonable, better able to withstand the impact of high temperature, and reduce the risk of deformation and damage. This can not only improve the overall performance and service life of asphalt ships, but also provide useful reference and reference for the technical development of related fields. The technical research of key parts of asphalt ships and actual measurement in high temperature areas provide a solution, which provides a basis for studying the selection of steel materials and the optimization of structural forms in high temperature areas.
[0057] The ship cargo tank expansion measuring device described in the present invention can obtain the shape plastic deformation of the cargo tank when it is subjected to thermal stress in the high temperature area by an indirect method, that is, the expansion data of the ship cargo tank is converted into the position change data of the pendulum pointer and the scale. The key points are reflected in the following four aspects: First, accurately measure the shape plastic deformation of the cargo tank when it is subjected to thermal stress in the high temperature area: During the operation of the asphalt ship, the thermal stress of the cargo tank in the high temperature area will cause the shape plastic deformation. Through innovative measurement methods, this deformation can be accurately captured, providing a reliable data basis for subsequent analysis and optimization. Second, the displacement data of the measuring device is converted into the expansion of the cargo tank by an indirect method: The application of the indirect method is one of the core innovations of this application. By cleverly converting the displacement data of the measuring device into the expansion of the cargo tank, the changes of the cargo tank in a high temperature environment can be more accurately reflected. This conversion method needs to be verified by strict mathematical models and algorithms to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data. Third, overcome the influence of high temperature on the measuring instrument: The high temperature environment poses a huge challenge to the normal operation of the measuring instrument. One of the key points of this application is to develop a measuring instrument that can work stably in a high temperature environment, and overcome the problems of aging of electronic components and decreased accuracy caused by high temperature. This requires the use of high-temperature resistant materials, optimization of instrument structure design, and effective heat dissipation measures to ensure that the measuring instrument can maintain good performance in extreme environments. 4. Ensure that the instrument's measurement data is not affected by later changes in the environment: In order to ensure the long-term validity of the measurement data, this application focuses on ensuring that the instrument's measurement data is no longer affected by later changes in the environment. This means that the measuring instrument must not only be accurate and reliable during the initial measurement, but also remain stable during long-term use, and not be disturbed by factors such as temperature fluctuations, humidity changes, and vibrations. By adopting advanced sensor technology, data processing algorithms and protective measures, the impact of environmental factors on the measurement data can be minimized, providing a continuous and reliable basis for the safe operation and maintenance of asphalt tankers.
