Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oil product loading and unloading, in particular to an interface docking device for an oil transportation container. Background Art
[0002] Derivatives of petroleum, including but not limited to gasoline, diesel, crude oil, lubricating oil, coal tar and other oil products, are usually transported by closed tanks of various capacities. For example, oil tank trucks can be used for long-distance transportation of large capacities, and small oil pipes carried by small vehicles can be used for short-distance transportation of small capacities. When it comes to unloading at the target location, the interfaces on the container usually need to be docked with the interfaces at the target location. During specific operations, misalignment in the horizontal direction can be achieved through operation, but misalignment of the pipe axis in the height direction is difficult to compensate for through operation. As a result, damage to the interfaces occurs during repeated unloading, gradually causing problems such as displacement, liquid leakage, and breakage. Content of the Utility Model

[0021] The following combines specific embodiments to further elaborate on the present utility model. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model and not to limit the scope of the present utility model. In addition, it should be understood that after reading the content taught by the present utility model, those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to the present utility model, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by this application.
[0022] The error in height mainly comes from the processing aspect and the usage aspect. Due to the low installation height accuracy of the unloading oil pipe, although processed with a fixed height, there are still obvious processing errors in the pipe shaft elevation of the interface. At the same time, during the use process, other auxiliary equipment and the surrounding environment will also cause height differences, including the height differences caused by the tire pressure of the oil tanker, the height differences of the vehicle body caused by the full load and empty state of the oil tanker, etc. Therefore, these height differences cannot be overcome through operation, and over time, it will cause damage to the interface.
[0023] This device is mainly used to solve the problem of the height difference in docking, so that the interface can accommodate a certain height difference during docking.
[0024] The specific structure includes: a fixed frame, an elastic mechanism, a floating plate 5, a hoop plate 20, and a connector pipe 16.
[0025] The fixed frame is used to fixedly install this device on the relevant facilities in the oil unloading area. It includes a horizontally arranged fixed plate 1. At one end of the fixed plate 1, two juxtaposed vertical plates 2 are symmetrically provided. The vertical plates 2 are vertically arranged. The fixed plate 1 and the vertical plates 2 form a structure similar to an L. A reinforcing plate 3 is also provided between the vertical plates 2 and the fixed plate 1 to strengthen the overall structure of the fixed frame. The fixed plate 1 is provided with a plurality of strip holes 4 extending along its length direction. The strip holes 4 can be freely used and are used in conjunction with bolt parts to achieve flexible installation and fixation.
[0026] The floating plate 5 is arranged at one end of the fixed frame close to the vertical plate 2. On both sides of the floating plate 5, ear plates 6 are respectively fixed. The two ear plates 6 extend side by side vertically and are parallel to the surface of the vertical plate 2.
[0027] On the outer side of each of the vertical plates 2, there are respectively two upper connecting rods 7 and two lower connecting rods 8 arranged parallel to each other up and down. One end of the upper connecting rod 7 and the lower connecting rod 8 is rotatably connected to the vertical plate 2, and the other end of the upper connecting rod 7 and the lower connecting rod 8 is rotatably connected to the ear plate 6 on the same side. The two upper connecting rods 7 on both sides are symmetrically arranged, the two lower connecting rods 8 on both sides are symmetrically arranged, and the upper connecting rod 7 and the lower connecting rod 8 on the same side are parallel. As a result, the floating plate 5 can be installed at a floating height relative to the fixed frame. Based on the combined action of the double connecting rods in the shape of a parallelogram, when the height of the floating plate 5 changes, it can remain horizontal, so that the pipe axis of the fixed joint pipe 16 is horizontal, facilitating docking.
[0028] The elastic mechanism includes: an upper horizontal shaft 9, a lower horizontal shaft 10, a telescopic rod 12, a sleeve 11, and a spring 13
[0029] Both ends of the upper horizontal shaft 9 are respectively fixed to the top ends of the two vertical plates 2. Both ends of the lower horizontal shaft 10 are respectively fixed to the tops of the two ear plates 6, and the lower horizontal shaft 10 is coaxial with the rotation of the bottom end of the upper connecting rod 7. The top end of the telescopic rod 12 is rotatably connected to the upper horizontal shaft 9, the bottom end of the sleeve 11 is rotatably connected to the lower horizontal shaft 10. The lower part of the telescopic rod 12 is inserted into the sleeve 11 and the two are in telescopic cooperation. A lower spring seat 13 is provided on the outer wall of the sleeve 11, and an upper spring seat 13 is provided at the top of the telescopic rod 12. The spring 13 is arranged between the upper spring seat 13 and the lower spring seat 13. The spring 13 is used to provide an elastic force for pulling the sleeve 11 and the telescopic rod 12 tightly. Thus, based on the above structure, the elastic mechanism and the gravity of the fixed components and pipelines below constitute an elastic balance, thereby obtaining the stability of the position of the floating plate 5, and when this position is affected by other external forces, it can adapt and adjust elastically.
[0030] Below the floating plate 5, there is a joint pipe 16 fixedly arranged in parallel with it. The connection method between the two is preferably a detachable structure, which is convenient for replacement and height adjustment. Specifically, a hanging fixed structure is adopted, including two symmetrically arranged hanging plates 17. The top of the hanging plate 17 is provided with a laterally extending card slot 18. There are two parallel jacks on the floating plate 5. The jacks correspond to the cross-section of the hanging plate 17. The top of the hanging plate 17 penetrates through the jacks and the card slot 18 is located on the top surface of the floating plate 5. An insertion plate 19 fixed by bolts is provided on the floating plate 5. The insertion plate 19 is movably inserted into the card slot 18, thereby realizing the one-time fixation of the two hanging plates 17. This fixation method is firm and reliable and convenient for disassembly. Different hanging plates 17 can be replaced. The structure of the hanging plate 17 is very simple and convenient for processing. It can be directly cut, grooved, and drilled using a plate. Different installation positions with different heights can be obtained through hanging plates 17 with different lengths.
[0031] The hoop plate 20 has a C-shaped structure with an open top and a circular arc bottom, which can adapt to the joint pipe 16. The top of the hoop plate 20 has an edge plate 21 extending upward, and mounting holes are provided on the edge plate 21. Two horizontal screw rods 22 are welded to the bottom end of the hanging plate 17. The screw rods 22 penetrate through the mounting holes and the hoop plate 20 is tightened and fixed by nuts. By pressing the nuts to make the opening of the hoop plate 20 close, the clamping of the joint pipe 16 is realized.
[0032] A rubber gasket is provided inside the hoop plate 20, and the joint pipe 16 is fixed inside the rubber gasket. The rubber gasket also adopts a C-shaped gasket with a cut, which is convenient for adjusting the diameter.
[0033] One end of the joint pipe 16 is provided with a bent pipe, which is connected to a hose through the bent pipe, and the hose is connected to an oil tank. The other end of the joint pipe 16 is for docking and is defined as an interface. For convenient guiding, a guiding sleeve 23 threadedly connected to the joint pipe 16 is provided at the interface of the joint pipe 16. The guiding sleeve has a flared structure and can guide the docking pipe to approach the joint pipe 16.
[0034] A flow meter and a valve can be provided on the joint pipe 16.
