DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The specific implementation of an oil delivery buffering and degassing device provided by the utility model is further described in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, an oil delivery buffering and degassing device includes a tank body, wherein an oil input pipe 1 is provided at one end of the tank body; an oil output pipe 5 and a discharge pipe 6 are provided on the side of the bottom of the tank body away from the oil input pipe 1, the inlet of the oil input pipe 1 is connected to the oil pipeline, and the outlet of the oil output pipe 5 is connected to the oil equipment to be used (including but not limited to tank trucks, ships, vehicles, etc.).

[0022] like Figure 2 As shown, the tank wall of the tank body located below the oil inlet pipe 1 adopts a curved slope plate structure 3, and the inner cavity of the tank body is provided with a horizontal guide plate 2 through an oblique support. The horizontal guide plate 2 is located directly above the outlet of the oil inlet pipe 1. It is worth noting here that by providing the horizontal guide plate 2 and the slope plate structure 3, on the one hand, it plays a guiding role for the oil entering the tank to prevent it from being sprayed into the inner cavity of the tank body; on the other hand, it plays a diameter-changing role for the tank cavity to avoid the oil from generating vortexes in the cavity, limit the flow direction and flow rate of the oil, and thus realize diameter expansion buffering, and complete the preliminary separation and stratification of the oil and air (the air is located above the oil due to its lighter density).

[0023] Preferably, an exhaust oil blocker 7 and an exhaust pipe 8 are provided on the top of the tank body. Specifically, the outlet of the exhaust pipe 8 is connected to one of the openings of the three-way pipe 82 through a first valve 81, and the other opening of the three-way pipe 82 is connected to the inlet of the exhaust oil blocker 7 through a second valve 83. The third opening of the three-way pipe 82 is connected to the atmosphere outside the tank body, and a third valve is provided upstream of the opening of the three-way pipe 82 connected to the atmosphere outside the tank body. It is worth noting here that when a large amount of air enters the inner cavity of the tank body, the air pressure is too high, and the float in the exhaust oil blocker 7 will not be able to fall down on its own for a while, resulting in a situation where normal exhaust cannot be performed. At this time, the first valve 81 can be manually closed, and the second valve 83 and the third valve can be opened to connect the exhaust oil blocker 7 to the external atmospheric environment for pressure relief. After the float falls back, the third valve can be closed for normal exhaust.

[0024] Preferably, a double-layer bubble screen 4 is vertically and inclinedly provided in the inner cavity of the tank body (specifically, the bottom of the double-layer bubble screen 4 is inclined toward the side close to the slope structure 3). At this time, the oil input pipe 1 and the oil output pipe 5 are respectively located on both sides of the double-layer bubble screen 4; the double-layer bubble screen 4 includes a coarse-pore screen and a fine-pore screen arranged in parallel, wherein the coarse-pore screen is arranged on the side close to the oil input pipe 1; the mesh number of the coarse-pore screen is 10 to 20; the mesh number of the fine-pore screen is 30, which can well perform secondary separation of residual gas in the oil or in the inner cavity of the tank body.

[0025] Preferably, a liquid indicating connecting tube 9 made of a transparent material is installed on the outside of the tank body, and the two ends of the liquid indicating connecting tube 9 are respectively connected to the top and bottom of the tank body cavity. When air enters the tank, the air is located above the oil, causing the oil level to drop. Then, the staff can intuitively see the changes in the liquid level through the liquid indicating connecting tube 9 from the outside of the tank body and vent the gas in time.

[0026] Also preferably, at least two groups of light-transmitting holes and observation holes are provided on the top of the tank body to facilitate staff to observe the facilities inside the tank.

[0027] Further preferably, in order to prevent the gas from being swept up and re-mixed into the oil and transported to the oil equipment to be used due to the high-speed discharge of the oil during oil output, a liquid cutting plate 51 is also installed in the inner cavity of the tank body through a number of supporting legs. The liquid cutting plate 51 is located directly above the inlet of the oil output pipe 5 and its outer diameter is larger than the inlet diameter of the oil output pipe 5, so that when the oil is discharged, only the oil that has been precipitated and filtered at the bottom of the liquid cutting plate 51 can be discharged first.

[0028] Still further preferably, in order to facilitate installation and disassembly of the pipelines, quick connectors 61 are installed at the inlet of the oil input pipe 1 , the outlet of the oil output pipe 5 , and the outlet of the discharge pipe 6 .

[0029] During the oil delivery process, first, open the valve at the inlet of the oil input pipe 1 and keep the valve on the outlet side of the oil output pipe 5 closed, and inject oil into the inner cavity of the tank until it is full; then, exhaust is carried out through the exhaust oil blocker 7 until the liquid level shown in the liquid indicating connecting pipe 9 is stable and there is no gas in the tank; then, open the valve on the outlet side of the oil output pipe 5 (keep the valve at the inlet of the oil input pipe 1 open) to deliver oil to the oil equipment to be used, and at the same time observe the changes in the liquid level of the liquid indicating connecting pipe 9 in real time. If the float of the exhaust oil blocker 7 cannot fall back and cannot be exhausted, it is necessary to manually open the third valve to relieve the pressure until the exhaust oil blocker 7 can be exhausted normally.

[0030] It is worth noting that the dimensions of the various components in the present invention can be determined according to the actual requirements of the oil inlet pipe, the oil outlet pipe and the oil pressure, and the pressure inside the tank is not less than 1.0 MPa; in order to facilitate transportation, at least two lifting rings are symmetrically provided on the top of the tank body; and supporting feet are provided at the bottom of the tank body to ensure that the degassing device as a whole is at an optimal distance of about 40 cm from the ground.

[0031] The utility model has a simple structure and is convenient for disassembly, assembly and maintenance. First, by arranging a curved slope plate structure tank wall and a horizontal guide plate under the oil inlet pipe, preliminary gas-liquid separation of the diameter expansion buffer at the oil inlet is achieved, and most of the gas is discharged through the top exhaust oil blocker; then, by arranging a double-layer bubble screen with different mesh sizes in the tank, the gas that is not completely separated from the oil is subjected to a secondary separation; finally, the liquid cutting plate at the oil outlet prevents the oil from flowing out directly from the outlet at a high speed and the residual gas is output along with the oil, but only the filtered oil located below the liquid cutting plate can be output to the oil equipment to be used. The triple treatment can not only ensure continuous degassing during the oil transportation process and improve the accuracy of the oil metering value; it can also improve the oil transportation efficiency and ensure the safety performance and service life of the pipeline or component.
