[0029] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 A tank structure for a vacuum oil pumping unit includes a tank body 10, the tank body 10 is provided with a plurality of connecting joints 110, the bottom of the tank body 10 is provided with an oil drain hole 100 extending downward, the oil drain hole 100 is connected to an oil drain pipe 310, the inner wall of the oil drain pipe 310 is provided with a sealing convex ring 320, a sealing plug 330 is provided in the oil drain pipe 310 for moving up and down, and the upper surface of the tank body 10 is provided with an actuator 40 for driving the sealing plug 330 to move up and down; the sealing plug 330 is in contact with the sealing convex ring 320 to achieve a closed state of the oil drain pipe 310; the sealing plug 330 is separated from the sealing convex ring 320 to achieve an open state of the oil drain pipe 310.

[0031] In the present invention, when extracting the engine oil, the sealing plug 330 is fitted with the sealing convex ring 320 , so that the oil drain pipe 310 is in a closed state, so that the interior of the tank body 10 is vacuumed to form a negative pressure.

[0032] When draining the oil, any one of the connectors 110 is in the open state, allowing external airflow to enter the tank body 10. Simultaneously, the actuator 40 is operated to drive the sealing plug 330 upward or downward relative to the oil drain pipe 310, separating the sealing plug 330 from the sealing protrusion 320. This opens the oil drain pipe 310, allowing the old oil to be discharged outward from the oil drain pipe 310.

[0033] In the present invention, the tank body 10 is connected to a vacuum generator, and the connecting joint 110 is used to connect the oil pumping pipe.

[0034] See also Figure 2, an opening 130 is provided on the top of the tank body 10, and an annular seal 60 is provided in the opening 130; the actuator 40 includes a moving rod 410, a mounting seat 420 and an operating handle 430; the mounting seat 420 is fixedly provided on the upper surface of the tank body 10, the interior of the mounting seat 420 is hollow and the lower end is open; the lower end of the moving rod 410 extends into the oil drain pipe 310 and is fixedly connected to the sealing plug 330; the upper end of the moving rod 410 passes through the annular seal 60 and extends into the mounting seat 420; an elastic element 440 is provided in the mounting seat 420, and the elastic element 440 is used to apply a force to the moving rod 410 so that the sealing plug 330 and the sealing convex ring 320 remain in a fit state; the operating handle 430 is connected to the moving rod 410, and is used to drive the moving rod 410 to move up and down.

[0035] Furthermore, the sealing plug 330 is disposed below the sealing protrusion 320; the upper surface of the sealing plug 330 abuts against the lower surface of the sealing protrusion 320, thereby maintaining the oil drain pipe 310 in a closed state. In this embodiment, the elastic element 440 exerts an upward force on the movable rod 410, i.e., the elastic element 440 drives the movable rod 410 upward, causing the upper surface of the sealing plug 330 to abut against the lower surface of the sealing protrusion 320, thereby maintaining the closed state. In this embodiment, when the oil drain pipe 310 needs to be opened, the operating handle 430 is manually operated to move the movable rod 410 downward, separating the upper surface of the sealing plug 330 from the lower surface of the sealing protrusion 320, thereby opening the oil drain pipe 310.

[0036] Furthermore, the elastic element 440 is a spring, which is sleeved on the moving rod 410 , and the lower end of the spring abuts against the upper surface of the annular seal 60 . A retaining ring 441 is provided at the upper end of the moving rod 410 , and the upper end of the spring abuts against the lower surface of the retaining ring 441 .

[0037] See also Figure 1 A longitudinal guide groove 450 is provided on either side of the mounting base 420, and the operating handle 430 is positioned within this longitudinal guide groove 450 for vertical movement. A limit slot 460 is provided on either side of the longitudinal guide groove 450, and the operating handle 430 can be locked into this limit slot 460 to form a limit lock. This structure allows the oil drain pipe 310 to remain in the open state by locking the operating handle 430 into the limit slot 460.

[0038] See also Figure 2The mounting base 420 is rotatably provided with a rotating base 470, and a connecting portion 480 is provided on the rotating base 470. The operating handle 430 is provided with a connecting piece 490, and the connecting piece 490 and the connecting portion 480 are hinged to each other; the connecting piece 490 is provided with a strip groove 491, and a linkage pin 411 is provided at the upper end of the moving rod 410, and the linkage pin 411 is movably inserted into the strip groove 491. The provision of the rotating base 470 allows the operating handle 340 to rotate relative to the mounting base 470, so that the operating handle 340 can be snapped into the limiting slot 460. In the present utility model, the moving rod 410 will rotate synchronously with the rotation of the operating handle 340.

[0039] See also Figure 2 A sealing ring 340 is provided on the upper surface of the sealing plug 330 , and the function of the sealing ring 340 is to enhance the sealing performance between the sealing plug 330 and the annular convex ring 320 .

[0040] See also Figure 2 A hollow tube 50 is provided in the tank body 10. The upper and lower ends of the hollow tube 50 are opened. The lower end of the hollow tube 50 is connected to the oil drain pipe 310. The moving rod 410 is provided in the hollow tube 50. The upper end of the hollow tube 50 is connected to the annular seal 60. An oil inlet hole 510 is provided on the side wall of the hollow tube 50 above the oil drain pipe 310.

[0041] See also Figure 1 The tank body 10 is connected to a pressure gauge 120 .

[0042] See also Figure 5 The function of the tank body 10 in the present invention is to cooperate with the vacuum generator to form negative pressure, so as to suck the old engine oil into the tank body 10 for temporary storage through the negative pressure. After the suction of the old engine oil is completed, the oil drain pipe 310 is connected to the oil collecting tank 70. When the sealing plug 330 is operated to open the oil drain pipe 310, the old engine oil flows downward from the tank body 10 into the oil collecting tank 70 for storage.
