Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of asphalt insulation equipment, in particular to an asphalt insulation storage tank. Background Art

[0002] Liquid hot asphalt is an important raw material in the asphalt mixture production process. Normally, the industry uses a high-power thermal oil furnace to heat and melt asphalt to achieve the use state. This heating method has a large heat supply and is suitable for mass production. However, the heating process of the thermal oil furnace takes 3 to 4 hours, which will affect the production efficiency of the asphalt mixing plant to a certain extent. If it encounters important holidays, major events, and night standby to undertake emergency support tasks, it is necessary to start a high-power thermal oil boiler for a long time to ensure that it is always ready for production, which greatly increases the operating costs. This heating method is relatively single and highly dependent on fossil fuels, which is not conducive to enterprises to adjust according to demand.

[0003] At present, asphalt mixing plants mainly pump hot liquid asphalt to large-capacity asphalt storage tanks by "pre-heating → pre-storage" to avoid the "production gap" caused by heating asphalt during the production of asphalt mixtures, so as to ensure the production timeliness of the asphalt plant and improve the emergency response capability. However, the boiler still needs to be started for a long time to ensure the working performance of the hot liquid asphalt in the storage tank, so this solution cannot solve the problem of long-term operation of high-power thermal oil boilers.

[0004] Current energy prices are high, and the prices of different energy sources vary greatly at different times and spaces. If an asphalt insulation and heating equipment can be designed that can simultaneously meet a variety of different heating and insulation methods, it will also help companies reduce costs and increase efficiency, and enhance industry competitiveness.

[0005] In addition, the thermal oil pan heating and insulation device commonly used at this stage can only directly heat the asphalt in a local area. The thermal oil pan is set in a relatively single area and cannot be moved. Other areas need to be heated and insulated through heat conduction between the asphalt and convection generated by the stirring equipment, which means that it is impossible to provide a uniform and effective heating method for the entire tank of asphalt, which is not conducive to uniform heating and reasonable preservation of the asphalt.

[0006] At the same time, the heat energy of the traditional thermal oil asphalt storage tank circulates outside the tank, and the thermal oil disc will produce obvious heat loss during the circulation outside the tank. Even if a heat recovery device is installed, high economy cannot be guaranteed.

[0007] In addition, the heating device of the traditional heat transfer oil pan asphalt storage tank is installed inside the storage tank. Once the equipment is damaged or the pipeline is ruptured, the heat transfer oil in the pipe will contaminate the asphalt in the tank, causing unnecessary losses. At the same time, the inspection and maintenance of traditional equipment are complicated, and it is necessary to empty the asphalt storage tank and manually climb inside for inspection, which is dangerous and increases the difficulty of equipment inspection.

[0008] In summary, how to effectively solve the problems of uneven heating and insulation of asphalt storage tanks in traditional thermal oil furnaces and large heat energy loss is an issue that technical personnel in this field urgently need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0019] Optionally, a spiral blade is arranged on the inner wall of the outer storage tank, and a gap is provided between the inner side of the spiral blade and the outer wall of the inner storage tank.

[0020] Optionally, a vacuum pump connected to the vacuum interface of the external storage tank is also included.

[0021] The asphalt insulation storage tank provided by the utility model is divided into an outer storage tank and an inner storage tank. The size of the outer storage tank is larger than that of the inner storage tank. The inner storage tank is sleeved inside the outer storage tank. A gap is left between the outer storage tank and the inner storage tank, and the gap space forms a sealed cavity.

[0022] The sealed cavity is provided with an inlet circulation interface and an outlet circulation interface, and the sealed cavity is filled with a heat-insulating medium, which insulates the asphalt and other media in the inner storage tank.

When no heat pipe is provided inside the sealed cavity, the electric heating device is used for heating to avoid the situation where the heat transfer oil contaminates the asphalt in unexpected situations. The electric heating device can be withdrawn and replaced at any time, thereby improving the reliability of the electric heating module and enhancing the enterprise's risk resistance ability in unexpected situations.

[0025] It should be noted that the inner storage tank can be a conventional storage tank in the prior art, retaining the original self-heating structure of the storage tank, and can heat the medium in a separate sub-heating manner. A medium interface is left at the top of the inner storage tank, and the medium such as asphalt enters from the medium interface.

At the same time, the selection of non-external circulation thermal oil heat preservation heating mode can effectively reduce the heat loss caused by external circulation. It effectively solves the shortcomings of uneven heating and heat preservation of asphalt storage tanks in traditional thermal oil furnaces, large heat energy loss, high equipment damage costs, and complex heating device maintenance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The core of the utility model is to provide an asphalt insulation storage tank, which effectively solves the problems of uneven heating and insulation, large heat energy loss and the like of the asphalt storage tank of the traditional thermal oil furnace.

[0039] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0040] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an asphalt insulation storage tank provided in a specific implementation manner of the utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 A front view of Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a storage tank support; Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of an external storage tank; Figure 5 for Figure 4 A front view of Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the inner storage tank; Figure 7 for Figure 6 A front view of Figure 8 This is the assembly diagram of the asphalt insulation storage tank.

[0041] In a specific embodiment, the asphalt insulation storage tank provided by the utility model includes an outer storage tank 13 and an inner storage tank 17 mounted inside the outer storage tank 13, and there is a gap between the outer storage tank 13 and the inner storage tank 17 to form a sealed cavity, the sealed cavity is provided with an inlet circulation interface 3 and an outlet circulation interface 8, the sealed cavity is filled with a thermal insulation heat transfer medium, and a heating rod is detachably connected to the sealed cavity.

[0042] In the above structure, the asphalt insulation storage tank is divided into two parts: an outer storage tank 13 and an inner storage tank 17. The size of the outer storage tank 13 is larger than that of the inner storage tank 17, and the inner storage tank 17 is mounted inside the outer storage tank 13. A gap is left between the outer storage tank 13 and the inner storage tank 17, and the gap space forms a sealed cavity.

[0043] The sealed cavity is provided with an inlet circulation interface 3 and an outlet circulation interface 8. The sealed cavity is filled with a heat-insulating medium, and the asphalt and other media in the inner storage tank 17 are insulated by the heat-insulating medium. Specifically, the heat-insulating medium such as heat-conducting oil at the first set temperature outside enters the sealed cavity from the inlet circulation interface 3. When the heat-insulating medium is not needed or the temperature of the heat-insulating medium is lower than the second set temperature, the heat-insulating medium is discharged from the outlet circulation interface 8. Heat-conducting oil is evenly poured into the outer layer of the asphalt storage tank to achieve uniform circulation heating of the entire asphalt storage tank, ensuring that the asphalt at each height can absorb enough heat to avoid repeated local heating for a long time.

[0044] At the same time, a heating rod is connected to the sealed cavity, and the heating rod and the sealed cavity are detachably connected. When the heating rod is needed for heating, the heating rod is installed in the sealed cavity, and when the heating rod is not needed for heating, the heating rod is taken out of the sealed cavity. The two functions of the heating rod and the external circulation of the heat preservation heating medium can be used simultaneously or separately, depending on the actual application.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the heating rod is an electric heating device, such as the electric heating rod 18. When no heat pipe is provided inside the sealed cavity, the electric heating device is used for heating to avoid the situation where the heat transfer oil contaminates the asphalt in unexpected circumstances. The electric heating device can be withdrawn and replaced at any time, thereby improving the reliability of the electric heating module and enhancing the enterprise's risk resistance in unexpected circumstances.

[0046] It should be noted that the inner storage tank 17 can be a conventional storage tank in the prior art, retaining the original self-heating structure of the storage tank, and can heat the medium in a separate sub-heating manner. A medium interface is left at the top of the inner storage tank 17, and the medium such as asphalt enters from the medium interface.

[0047] The asphalt insulation storage tank provided by the utility model has two heating and heat preservation modes: heat transfer oil circulation and heating rod. It can be connected to an external boiler to realize rapid circulation heating of the heat transfer oil, or it can close the circulation system and realize non-circulation heat transfer oil heating and heat preservation through the inserted electric heating rod. It provides a variety of heating and heat preservation methods with different principles, different measures, and different effects, meeting the needs of enterprises for diversified production methods, avoiding dependence on a single energy source, and providing additional protection in unexpected situations. It is compatible with external circulation of heat transfer oil and also supports self-circulation in the heat transfer oil tank. After turning on the internal circulation function, it can avoid the loss of heat energy during the external circulation process, improve energy utilization, and also save the purchase, operation and maintenance costs of some waste heat utilization devices. A double-layer design is adopted, with the inner storage tank 17 storing asphalt and the outer storage tank 13 heating and heat preservation. The inner and outer storage tanks 13 are independent of each other, and the functions of each part are independent and do not interfere with each other. During maintenance, the inner storage tank 17 can be lifted out for maintenance by a crane, which improves the efficiency and safety of maintenance and is beneficial to the subsequent equipment maintenance, reduces the cost of use, avoids the contamination of the asphalt in the storage tank under unexpected circumstances, improves the safety of the structure, and avoids the situation in traditional asphalt storage tanks where the heat transfer oil pan is heated in a fixed position for a long time, resulting in uneven heating of the asphalt, so that the entire tank body can be heated evenly.

[0048] The above-mentioned asphalt insulated storage tank is only a preferred solution and is not limited to it. On this basis, targeted adjustments can be made according to actual needs to obtain different implementation methods. A connecting plate is provided on the top surface of the inner storage tank 17. The diameter of the connecting plate is larger than the outer diameter of the inner storage tank 17.

The diameter of the connection plate is larger than the outer diameter of the inner storage tank 17, and the connection plate on the top of the inner storage tank 17 is cantilevered outward.

[0050] An upper shaft seal 1 is provided at the edge of the cantilevered bottom surface of the connecting plate beyond the inner storage tank 17, and a step surface is provided on the top surface of the outer storage tank 13. The connecting plate is connected to the step surface through the upper shaft seal 1, and is sealed by the upper shaft seal 1 to ensure the sealing performance of the sealed cavity surrounded by the outer wall of the inner storage tank 17, the inner wall of the outer storage tank 13, the upper connecting plate, and the lower connecting surface.

[0055] There are multiple circulation inlet interfaces 3, which are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the connecting disk. Multiple circulation inlet interfaces 3 can be filled with thermal insulation and heat transfer medium at the same time, thereby increasing the injection speed of the thermal insulation and heat transfer medium in the sealed cavity. Thermal insulation and heat transfer medium are added in all directions at the same time, and the heating speed of the inner storage tank 17 in all directions is more uniform.

[0056] At the same time, the inner diameter of the step surfaces of the multiple inlet circulation interfaces 3 is smaller than the outer pitch circle of the inlet circulation interfaces 3, the step surfaces do not block the inlet circulation interfaces 3, the inlet circulation interfaces 3 are fully open, and the filling flow of the inlet circulation interfaces 3 is relatively large.

[0057] Based on the above-mentioned specific embodiments, the middle and lower parts of the outer wall of the inner storage tank 17 are provided with limiting rings, and the limiting rings are provided with limiting holes 19 corresponding to the vertical projection of the inlet circulation interface 3. The heating rod is vertically inserted into the limiting hole 19 from the inlet circulation interface 3, and the inlet circulation interface 3 is sealed and connected with the heating rod.

[0058] In a specific embodiment, a limiting ring is provided on the wall side of the inner storage tank 17, and a limiting hole 19 is provided on the limiting ring. The limiting holes 19 are equal in number to the inlet circulation interface 3, and the center lines coincide. The heating rod is vertically inserted into the limiting hole 19 from the inlet circulation interface 3. The limiting hole 19 and the inlet circulation interface 3 limit the heating rod to prevent the heating rod from tilting or other functional damages due to its excessive length during operation. The inlet circulation interface 3 is sealed and connected to the heating rod to ensure the sealing of the connection between the inlet circulation interface 3 and the heating rod.

[0059] In a preferred embodiment, the size of the limiting hole 19 is equal to that of the inlet circulation interface 3, which is equal to the diameter of the heating rod. The limiting hole 19, the inlet circulation interface 3 and the heating rod clearance match each other, which has a better limiting effect on the heating rod.

[0060] In another more reliable embodiment, based on any one of the above embodiments, the external storage tank 13 is connected to a driving device, and the driving device controls the rotation of the external storage tank 13 .

[0061] In a specific embodiment, the inner storage tank 17 is fixed differently, and the driving device controls the outer storage tank 13 to rotate, thereby realizing the flow of the thermal insulation heat transfer medium in the pores, so that the thermal insulation heat transfer medium of different temperatures at different positions can conduct heat transfer with different positions of the inner storage tank 17, so that the inner storage tank 17 is heated evenly.

[0062] Based on the above-mentioned specific embodiments, the driving device includes a belt gear 16 arranged along the circumferential direction on the outside of the outer storage tank 13 , a belt 5 connected to the belt gear 16 , and a motor 4 connected to the belt 5 .

[0063] In a specific embodiment, the driving device includes a belt gear 16, a belt 5, and a motor 4. The belt gear 16 is arranged on the outer wall of the outer storage tank 13, and the belt gear 16 is arranged in a circle along the circumferential direction. The belt 5 is connected to the belt gear 16, and the output shaft of the motor 4 is connected to the belt 5. The output shaft of the motor 4 rotates, and the belt gear 16 is driven to rotate through the belt 5, that is, the outer storage tank 13 is driven to rotate. The structure is simple, easy to connect, and the outer storage tank 13 rotates stably.

[0064] On the basis of the above-mentioned specific embodiments, the external storage tank 13 includes an upper tank shell and a lower tank shell connected to the upper tank shell through a lower shaft seal 9, and the driving device is connected to the upper tank shell.

[0065] In a specific embodiment, in order to ensure the sealing and normal rotation function of the outer storage tank 13, the outer storage tank 13 is divided into two parts, the upper tank shell and the lower tank shell, and a shaft seal gap is reserved in the middle. The connection between the upper tank shell and the lower tank shell of the outer storage tank 13 is provided with a lower shaft seal 9, and the upper tank shell and the lower tank shell are sealed and rotated relative to each other through the lower shaft seal 9. During operation, only the upper tank shell of the upper part rotates, and the lower tank shell of the lower part does not rotate. The lower tank shell has the same structure shape as the lower part of the inner storage tank 17, which is conical, ensuring that the lower tank shell is conveniently fixed to the lower part of the inner storage tank 17. Specifically, the lower end of the inner storage tank 17 is provided with an inner and outer wall interface 20, and the lower end of the lower tank shell has a connecting hole, and the inner and outer wall interface 20 is inserted into the connecting hole, and then fixed by a flange and bolts.
