Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of storage tanks, in particular to a maintenance hole structure of a large storage tank for fertilizer production. Background Art

[0002] In the fertilizer production plant, there are many large storage tanks for containing liquids. Inspection holes are set on the lower side of the outer wall of these storage tanks. During inspection, personnel can enter the storage tank through the inspection holes. The current inspection hole structure includes a connecting pipe, a connecting flange and a blind plate. One end of the connecting pipe is connected to the storage tank, and the other end is equipped with a connecting flange. The blind plate is installed on the connecting flange by bolts to close the connecting pipe. The blind plate and the connecting flange are sealed by a rubber pad.

[0003] When the rubber pad leaks or after the internal maintenance of the tank, it is necessary to replace the rubber pad. The current rubber pad is cut from the rubber plate. Since the inner diameter of the connecting flange is large, generally Φ600, and the rubber pad is annular, each time the rubber pad is cut, at least Φ600 of the circular rubber plate residue will be left, which is not only troublesome to cut, but also wastes a lot of rubber plates. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the sealing structure of the inspection hole of the tank.

[0004] There are several improvement schemes at present. One is to process the sealing ring groove directly on the side of the blind plate, and install the sealing ring in the sealing ring groove to achieve the sealing between the blind plate and the connecting flange. However, the thickness of the blind plate used on site is 12mm. After processing the sealing ring groove of a certain depth on the existing blind plate, the structural strength of the blind plate will be reduced, and it is easy to deform during installation. In addition, there is no lathe capable of processing circular plates of Φ700 and above around the factory area. The second is to thicken the blind plate and re-purchase the blind plate with the sealing ring groove. However, when this scheme is adopted, the thickness of the blind plate is about 20mm. Taking the inspection hole with an inner diameter of Φ600 as an example, the outer diameter of the blind plate is Φ700mm, and the weight of the whole blind plate is about 60Kg. The weight of the blind plate is about 36kg when the thickness of 12mm is about 36kg, which is 24Kg more in weight. Since the operation site is outdoors, two people work in a group, and there is no lifting equipment on site, it is inconvenient to disassemble and assemble on site. Therefore, the inventor proposes the large storage tank inspection hole structure of this application to improve the existing storage tank inspection hole structure. Utility Model Content

[0025] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the installation of the spacer ring 3 , a fixing device 32 is installed on the spacer ring 3 to achieve the sequential installation of the spacer ring 3 and the blind plate 2 .

[0026] In the first embodiment, see Figure 4 The fixing device 32 is a hook fixed on the outer circumference of the spacer ring 3, and the hook is hung on the connecting flange 11 to fix the spacer ring 3. Specifically, two hooks are provided. During installation, after the sealing ring is installed on the spacer ring 3, the spacer ring 3 is hung on the connecting flange 11 through the hook. When installing the blind plate 2, there is no need to lift the spacer ring 3 separately.

[0027] In the second embodiment, see Figure 5 The fixing device 32 is a sleeve fixed in the bolt hole of the spacer ring 3, the sleeve extends to one side of the connecting flange 11, and the sleeve penetrates into the bolt hole of the connecting flange 11 to fix the spacer ring 3. Figure 3 When installing the spacer ring 3, first insert the sleeve into the bolt hole of the connecting flange 11, and connect the spacer ring 3 to the connecting flange 11. In this way, when installing the blind plate, there is no need to lift the spacer ring 3 separately. When installing the bolt 4, the bolt 4 is inserted into the sleeve, which does not affect the installation of the bolt 4. Specifically, 2-4 sleeves are set.
