Detailed implementation manners
[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.
[0028] This application provides a lubricating oil storage tank, which is mainly used to solve the problems in the prior art that traditional lubricating oil storage usually uses ordinary tank bodies and mostly static storage. The lubricating oil remains stationary in the tank for a long time. On the one hand, additives in the lubricating oil such as antioxidants and anti-wear agents may gradually fail after long-term standing, resulting in a decline in the overall performance of the lubricating oil. In addition, solid particles in the lubricating oil will gradually settle to the bottom of the tank under the action of gravity, forming sediments, which affect the quality of the lubricating oil. The following technical solutions are provided and will be described in detail below with reference to Figures 1-4 make a detailed description:
[0029] A lubricating oil storage tank includes: a sleeve 1, and an installation bin 2 is communicated with one side of the sleeve 1;
[0030] A diversion pipe 3 is rotatably connected to the middle of the sleeve 1 through a bearing. The bottom end of the diversion pipe 3 penetrates the bottom wall of the sleeve 1 and is provided with a valve 301;
[0031] An oil storage tank body 4 is communicated with the middle of the diversion pipe 3, and the lubricating oil is stored inside the oil storage tank body 4;
[0032] A rotating mechanism 5 is arranged in the installation bin 2, and the rotating mechanism 5 is used to drive the oil storage tank body 4 to rotate;
[0033] A moving base 8 is arranged directly below the sleeve 1 and is used to support the sleeve 1.
[0034] Working process:
[0035] In the first step, the lubricating oil is added from the upper end of the diversion pipe 3, and the lubricating oil enters the inside of the oil storage tank body 4;
[0036] In the second step, the rotating mechanism 5 is started to drive the oil storage tank body 4 to rotate, so that the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank body 4 keeps flowing, avoiding long-term standing.
[0037] In the third step, when lubricating oil is needed, open valve 301, and the lubricating oil flows out through the diversion pipe 3 for the equipment to use. During storage, if it is necessary to adjust the position of the oil storage tank body 4 or move the entire device, it can be achieved by operating the moving base 8.
[0038] As Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, stirring rods 9 are fixedly arranged in an annular array on the side of the inner top wall of the oil storage tank body 4. The stirring rods 9 are conical. More specifically, the conical stirring rods 9 generate a hydrodynamic effect with the rotation of the oil storage tank body 4, promoting the convection of the lubricating oil, effectively mixing the additives in the oil, and ensuring the uniformity of the properties of the lubricating oil. The bottom ends of the stirring rods 9 are designed to be pointed, which reduces the contact area between the lubricating oil and the surface of the stirring rods 9, thereby reducing the possibility of oil adhesion.
[0039] As Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, the rotating mechanism 5 includes a rotating rod 501 rotatably connected between the inner top wall and the inner bottom wall of the installation bin 2. A motor 502 is installed at the top of the installation bin 2, and the output shaft of the motor 502 is connected to the top of the rotating rod 501. A driving pulley 503 is fixedly arranged in the middle of the rotating rod 501, and a driven pulley 504 is fixedly arranged outside the oil storage tank body 4. A transmission belt 505 is connected between the driving pulley 503 and the driven pulley 504. More specifically, when the motor 502 is started, its output shaft starts to rotate, thereby driving the directly connected rotating rod 501 to rotate synchronously. With the rotation of the rotating rod 501, the driving pulley 503 fixed on it also rotates. The driving pulley 503 transmits the rotational power to the driven pulley 504 fixed on the oil storage tank body 4 through the transmission belt 505, thereby driving the oil storage tank body 4 to rotate. This rotational movement enables the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank to be fully stirred, helping to maintain the homogeneity and activity of the lubricating oil and preventing the precipitation of additives.
[0040] As Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, a heat insulation pad 101 is arranged on the inner wall of the sleeve 1. More specifically, the main function of the heat insulation pad 101 is to insulate heat, ensuring that the lubricating oil in the equipment is stored in a suitable temperature environment.
[0041] As Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, bull's-eye wheels 6 are installed in an annular array on the side of the bottom of the oil storage tank body 4. The bull's-eye wheels 6 are slidably connected to the inner bottom wall of the sleeve 1. More specifically, the bull's-eye wheels 6 enable the oil storage tank body 4 to rotate flexibly in the sleeve 1 while maintaining stability. The bull's-eye wheels 6 are installed in an annular array at the bottom of the oil storage tank body 4, ensuring the balanced distribution of the load and free movement in all directions.
[0042] As Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, a feed hopper 7 is provided at the upper end of the diversion pipe 3. A connecting column 701 is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the feed hopper 7. The connecting column 701 is threadedly connected to the diversion pipe 3, and a feed channel 3021 is formed in the middle thereof. More specifically, the feed hopper 7 is in a funnel shape with a relatively large opening at the top and is connected to the connecting column 701 at the bottom. This design facilitates the user to add lubricating oil from the top, and the threaded connection makes the assembly and disassembly between the feed hopper 7 and the diversion pipe 3 quick and easy.
[0043] As Figure 4 shown, in some embodiments, the feed channel 3021 is conical. A conical plug 302 is fixedly provided at a position near the upper port inside the diversion pipe 3. The conical plug 302 is slidably connected to the feed channel 3021, and leakage holes 7011 are formed in an annular array at the bottom thereof. More specifically, when the connecting column 701 is fully screwed with the diversion pipe 3, at this time the conical plug 302 is embedded in the feed channel 3021, a sealing structure will be formed. When the feed hopper 7 is rotated to make the conical plug 302 disengage from the feed channel 3021, in this way the lubricating oil can fall through the feed channel 3021 and then enter the interior of the oil storage tank body 4 through the leakage holes 7011.
[0044] As Figure 1 shown, in some embodiments, the mobile base 8 includes a bearing plate 801. Support legs 802 are connected between the bearing plate 801 and the sleeve 1. Self-locking universal wheels 803 are installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the bearing plate 801. More specifically, the bearing plate 801 serves as the main part of the mobile base 8, and its main function is to provide a stable and supporting platform for the oil storage tank body 4. The self-locking universal wheels 803 are installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the bearing plate 801. The self-locking universal wheels 803 can rotate and be locked. The operator can easily move the equipment to the designated position according to needs and fix the wheels through the locking mechanism to prevent the equipment from sliding or shifting during use.
[0045] As Figure 1 shown, in some embodiments, a U-shaped groove 8011 is formed on one side of the top of the bearing plate 801. The U-shaped groove 8011 is located directly below the diversion pipe 3. More specifically, the U-shaped groove 8011 is located directly below the diversion pipe 3, and its main function is to place the lubricating oil collection container and facilitate the staff to quickly locate the collection container.
[0046] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present utility model. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
