[0011] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. The thermal insulation structure applied to the double oil tanks can better maintain the oil tanks in a suitable temperature range by comprehensively utilizing waste heat and thermal insulation materials, ensuring that the fuel will not solidify or dilute in a cold environment, providing a more stable and relatively constant temperature environment for the oil tanks, and improving the reliability of the turbine system in a cold environment.

[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0021] See also Figure 1-5 A heat preservation structure applied to a double oil tank comprises a heat preservation tube 1, an oil tank 2 is fixedly installed inside the heat preservation tube 1, an output end of the oil tank 2 is fixedly connected with an oil pipe 3, a circulating air heating mechanism is arranged inside the heat preservation tube 1, a heat preservation board 7 is arranged inside the heat preservation tube 1, a cavity between the heat preservation board 7 and the heat preservation tube 1 is filled with heat insulating cotton 8, and a sealing heat preservation mechanism is arranged on the top of the heat preservation tube 1.

[0022] Through the above technical scheme, the high-temperature exhaust gas generated during the operation of the turbine is introduced into the circulating air heating mechanism, which can heat the main and auxiliary oil tanks 2 in the two groups of insulation tubes 1. The sealing insulation mechanism can reduce the heat loss in the insulation tube 1.

[0023] Specifically, the circulating air heating mechanism includes a circulating pipe 4 wound around the outer surface of the oil tank 2 , the input end of the circulating pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the access pipe 5 , and the output end of the circulating pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the exhaust pipe 6 .

[0024] Through the above technical solution, the circulation pipe 4 is wound around the outer surface of the oil tank 2, and can transfer heat to the oil tank 2 when passing through the high-temperature exhaust gas, so as to keep the oil tank 2 at a suitable temperature.

[0025] Specifically, the sealing and heat-insulating mechanism includes an embedding groove 9 opened on the top of the heat-insulating cylinder 1 , and a cylinder cover 10 is arranged on the top of the heat-insulating cylinder 1 .

[0026] Through the above technical solution, the embedding groove 9 and the rubber strip 11 can relatively maintain good sealing performance of the heat preservation tube 1 after being embedded.

[0027] Specifically, a rubber molding 11 is provided at the bottom of the cylinder cover 10 , and a recessed groove 12 is provided at the top of the heat-insulating cylinder 1 and the edge of the cylinder cover 10 .

[0028] Through the above technical solution, the design of the recessed groove 12 is to allow the screw 15 to be smoothly flipped and adjusted in position, and cooperate with the butterfly nut 16 to effectively limit the screw 15.

[0029] Specifically, a fixing plate 13 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the heat-insulating cylinder 1 , and a through shaft 14 is fixedly penetrated through the inner side of the fixing plate 13 .

[0030] Through the above technical solution, the position of the screw 15 can be adjusted during the process of rotating the screw 15 along the through-shaft 14 .

[0031] Specifically, the outer surface of the through shaft 14 is rotatably connected with a screw 15 , the outer surface of the screw 15 is movably engaged with the inner wall of the recessed groove 12 , and a butterfly nut 16 is threadedly sleeved on the outer surface of the screw 15 .

[0032] Through the above technical solution, when the screw 15 is completely inserted into the recessed groove 12 on the heat preservation cylinder 1 and the cylinder cover 10 , the cylinder cover 10 can be fixed in cooperation with the butterfly nut 16 .

[0033] Working principle: When the device is in use, the main and auxiliary oil tanks 2 of the steam turbine are respectively installed in the two sets of insulation cylinders 1. The sealing insulation mechanism can make the entire insulation cylinder 1 in a closed state, that is, at this time, the screw 15 needs to be rotated along the through shaft 14. When the screw 15 is inserted into the recessed groove 12 opened at the top of the insulation cylinder 1 and the edge of the cylinder cover 10, the butterfly nut 16 can be screwed along the screw 15. When all the butterfly nuts 16 are rotated along the screw 15 and moved to tightly against the upper surface of the cylinder cover 10, all the screws 15 are stuck in the recessed groove 12. At this time, the cylinder cover 10 is stably installed on the top of the insulation cylinder 1, and the rubber strip 11 is embedded in the embedding groove 9, which can effectively reduce heat loss. Then, the high-temperature exhaust gas generated during the operation of the steam turbine is introduced into the access pipe 5, and then introduced into the circulation pipe 4 through the access pipe 5. When the circulation pipe 4 is wrapped around the surface of the oil tank 2, the heat of the high-temperature exhaust gas can be transferred to the oil tank 2. The exhaust gas after the heat transfer will eventually be discharged from the exhaust pipe 6. During this process, the temperature in the insulation tube 1 will increase significantly, which can effectively reduce the reduction in fuel fluidity caused by the low-temperature solidification of the fuel in the oil tank 2, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the steam turbine. In addition, an insulation board 7 is arranged in the insulation tube 1, and insulation cotton 8 is filled in the cavity between the insulation board 7 and the insulation tube 1. This design effectively reduces heat loss and prevents the external environment from affecting the temperature of the oil tank 2.

[0034] In summary: through the comprehensive utilization of waste heat and thermal insulation materials, the oil tank 2 can better maintain an appropriate temperature range, ensuring that the fuel will not solidify or dilute in a cold environment, ensuring the normal fluidity of the fuel in the oil pipe 3, providing a more stable and relatively constant temperature environment for the oil tank 2, and improving the reliability of the turbine system in cold environments.

[0035] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, and that the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
