[0002] The wall of a large storage tank is made of several layers of wall panels that are welded together. The welding process requires the use of welding tools, and the ease of use of the welding tools directly affects the efficiency and quality of the wall panel welding.

[0003] When installing the tank wall, the traditional method of welding angle steel blocks, wedges and hammers is often used. For example, when two wall panels are connected, the angle steel blocks are welded first, the wedges are inserted into the blocks and the wedges are hit with hammers to complete the connection. However, the connection efficiency is not high, which can easily cause damage to the local part of the tank wall. After the connection is completed, it is necessary to cut off the angle steel blocks, grind the welds (if the parent material is damaged, re-welding is required), and perform penetration inspection, which is a tedious workload, and there are certain installation quality risks.
