[0004] To achieve the above functions, the utility model provides a movable fresh water tank, including a box for storing fresh water, with an air vent welded on the top of the box connected to the interior of the box, three groups of water intake pipes at different heights are installed at upper and lower intervals on the left side panel of the box, and a liquid level gauge assembly is installed on the front side panel of the box, the liquid level gauge assembly includes two liquid level gauge pipes arranged at upper and lower intervals, the rear end of each liquid level gauge pipe is connected to the front side panel of the box by welding and is connected to the box interior, the front and rear ends of the liquid level gauge ball valve are respectively connected to the front end of each liquid level gauge pipe and the rear end of the liquid level gauge connecting flange by threads, the liquid level gauge arranged in the vertical direction is connected to the front end of the liquid level gauge flange by bolts, the measuring tube of the liquid level gauge is equipped with a float that can rise and fall with the liquid, the left ends of the water inlet pipe and the drain pipe are respectively welded to the upper and lower parts of the right side panel of the box and are connected to the box interior, and the lifting ear is fixedly connected to the top of the box.

[0005] The beneficial effect of the utility model is that the staff can use fresh water conveniently at different working positions on the ship. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0006] Figure 1 This is a front view of the movable fresh water tank of the utility model;

[0007] Figure 2 yes Figure 1 a left side view of the device shown;

[0008] Figure 3 yes Figure 1 A top view of the device is shown. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0009] The fresh water tank structure of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0010] As shown in the accompanying drawings, the utility model is a movable fresh water tank, comprising a box body 1 for storing fresh water. Preferably, three evenly distributed supporting channel steels 2 are welded at the bottom of the box body 1 for carrying by lifting equipment. An air vent 3 connected to the inside of the box body is welded on the top of the box body to ensure that the box body forms an air pressure balance with the outside world. Three groups of water intake pipes of different heights are installed at intervals on the left side panel of the box body 1 to meet the water intake requirements at different heights. The water intake pipeline composition may include a water intake pipe 6 whose right end is fixedly connected to the left side panel of the box body 1, and the faucet 4 is connected to the left end of the water intake pipe through a water intake pipe ball valve 5. The right end of the water intake pipe 6 can be welded to the left side panel of the box body 1, and the two ends of the water intake pipe ball valve 5 can be connected to the left end of the water intake pipe and the faucet 4 respectively through threads.

[0011] A liquid level gauge assembly is mounted on the front side panel of the tank 1. The assembly includes two liquid level gauge lines 10 spaced apart from each other. The rear end of each liquid level gauge line 10 is welded to the front side panel of the tank 1 and communicates with the tank interior. The front and rear ends of a liquid level gauge ball valve 9 are threadedly connected to the front end of each liquid level gauge line 10 and the rear end of a liquid level gauge connection flange 8, respectively. A vertically positioned liquid level gauge 7 is bolted to the front end of the level gauge flange. The measuring tube of the liquid level gauge 7 contains a float that rises and falls with the liquid. When the freshwater level within the tank 1 rises, the float experiences increased buoyancy, causing it to move upward. When the liquid level drops, the float experiences decreased buoyancy, causing it to move downward. The water level within the freshwater tank can be determined by observing the float's height. The rear ends of the inlet pipe 11 and outlet pipe 12 are welded to the upper and lower portions of the front side panel of the tank 1, respectively, and communicate with the tank interior, serving to fill and drain freshwater from the freshwater tank. The lifting lug 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the box body and is used for lifting the fresh water tank. A manhole 14 is threadedly connected to the top of the box body for personnel to clean the interior of the box body 1.

[0012] The method of using this device is as follows:

[0013] The external fresh water source pipeline is connected to the water inlet pipe 11, and fresh water can be injected into the box body 1 through the water inlet pipe 11. The amount of water to be injected can be observed through the liquid level meter 7. After the water filling is completed, the fresh water tank can be moved to the required position by lifting. Water can be taken from different faucets on site according to needs. After use, the fresh water in the box can be discharged through the drain pipe 12, and the pollution inside the fresh water tank can be cleaned through the manhole 14.

[0014] The device can be used to ensure that workers can use fresh water conveniently at different working positions on the ship.
