[0024] Working principle of the utility model: When cleaning the gas storage tank 1, the valve of the blowdown port 2 can be opened to allow some accumulated water in the gas storage tank 1 to flow into the water tank 16 and be filtered through the filter screen 17. Then, the motor 4 can be started to drive the rotation of the rotating shaft 3, so that the rotating shaft 3 drives the support rod 5, which in turn drives the connecting pipe 6, and then drives the connecting frame 7 and the cleaning block 8 to rotate synchronously, so that the cleaning block 8 wipes and cleans the inner wall of the gas storage tank 1.

As a result, the slider 20 drives the push rod 19 to move synchronously. The push rod 19 will push the piston 21 to move in the water pushing cylinder 18, so that the piston 21 pushes the water entering the water pushing cylinder 18 to move into the hose 22, so that the water is transported into the rotating shaft 3, and is transferred in and out through the water guide groove, the telescopic pipe 10 and the connecting pipe 6, so as to transfer the water into the connecting frame 7 and distribute it to each high-pressure nozzle, so as to spray and wash the inner wall of the gas storage tank 1. Combined with the wiping of the cleaning block 8, the cleaning effect is improved and the practicability is stronger. In addition, when the connecting frame 7 is subjected to a force, this will be transmitted to the baffle 9 through the connecting pipe 6, so that the push rod 19 moves within the buffer period, so that the baffle 9 compresses the first spring 11, and the buffer is carried out through the elastic force of the first spring 11 to avoid damage to the components due to excessive force. At the same time, it can ensure that the cleaning block 8 can be closely attached to the inner wall of the gas storage tank 1 for better wiping and cleaning treatment, which is more convenient to use.
