Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of asphalt tank cleaning technology, and in particular to an asphalt tank cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] Asphalt tanks store asphalt and can be heated by heating pipes. Residue inside the asphalt tank can solidify and requires cleaning. Existing cleaning technologies include scraping out the residue with shovels and high-temperature, high-pressure washing.
[0003] In existing cleaning methods, heating pipes are generally installed parallel to the axis of the asphalt tank and close to the side wall. When cleaning the outer wall of the heating pipe inside the asphalt tank, it is generally necessary to manually scrape off the solidified residue on the surface with a scraper. The scraper is usually a flat-head scraper or an electric scraper, which is more effective for cleaning stubborn residue. However, when using the scraper, workers need to hold it by hand, and scraping off stubborn residue requires a lot of force. In long-term cleaning work, a lot of force needs to be expended on holding the scraper, resulting in low cleaning efficiency and making cleaning time-consuming and labor-intensive.
[0004] In existing technologies, handheld shovels require workers to expend a lot of effort, resulting in low work efficiency, which needs to be addressed. Utility Model Content

For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0041] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0042] like Figure 1-6 As shown, an asphalt tank cleaning device includes: two support rings 1, which are arranged in parallel and spaced apart, and are located above the heating pipe inside the asphalt tank; several positioning rods 101, with at least three positioning rods 101 on each support ring 1, one side of which is connected to the support ring 1 and the other side abuts against the inner wall of the asphalt tank, for positioning the support ring 1; a support rod 2, located between the two support rings 1, with its two sides movably mounted on the support rings 1 on both sides; a sliding seat 3, which is slidably mounted on the support rod 2; an adjusting rod 301, which is mounted on the upper side of the sliding seat 3; and a mounting base 4, which is mounted on the lower side of the adjusting rod 301, and is used to suspend the shovel 5.
[0043] In use, the support ring 1 and support rod 2 are assembled after entering the asphalt tank. The two support rings 1 are spaced apart and supported on the inner wall of the asphalt tank by the positioning rod 101, which provides positioning support for the support rings 1. The shovel 5 can be suspended on the mounting base 4, and the adjusting rod 301 provides an upward pulling force to counteract the weight of the shovel 5 and reduce the force applied by the worker during use. When the support rod 2 moves on the support ring 1, it can move in a direction perpendicular to the axis, and the slide 3 moves in the axial direction, so that the shovel 5 can move to different cleaning areas.
[0044] Mounting base 4 can be a conventional clamp structure, capable of clamping and fixing clamps; mounting base 4 can be a tubular structure, which can be sleeved on shovel 5. Shovel 5 can be a flat-head shovel or an electric shovel 5, both of which have a sleeveable outer shell part, and when sleeved, it can be a clearance fit, which facilitates the up and down movement of shovel 5.
[0045] When there are three positioning rods 101, one positioning rod 101 can be set on each side of the lower end of the support ring 1, and the lower positioning rod 101 can be set at an angle, and one positioning rod 101 can be set at the middle of the upper end, which can be set vertically to form a stable support; four positioning rods 101 can also be set, located at the four corners, and can all be set at an angle to form a stable support.
[0046] When the asphalt tank is long and the heating pipe is also long, after cleaning one area, move the two support rings 1 to change their positions and continue cleaning.
[0047] Furthermore, it also includes: a connecting rod 302, disposed at the lower end of the adjusting rod 301; a tension spring 303, with its upper end disposed at the lower end of the connecting rod 302; and a transition rod 304, with its upper end disposed at the lower end of the tension spring 303. The upper side of the mounting base 4 is hinged to the lower part of the transition rod 304, and the mounting base 4 can rotate in the vertical plane. The adjusting rod 301 is a telescopic structure.
[0048] During use, the shovel 5 can be tilted up and down to easily adjust the shovel angle. The tension spring 303 provides some shock absorption and deflection. The mounting base 4 is hinged to the adapter rod 304 and can rotate up and down to adjust the shovel angle. The adapter rod 304 and the connecting rod 302 are connected by the tension spring 303. The tension spring 303 can reduce vibration transmission to a certain extent, and at the same time, the tension spring 303 can deflect off its own axis, facilitating multi-directional movement of the shovel 5.
[0049] The adjusting rod 301 can be a telescopic structure, such as a threaded connection or a sliding sleeve structure, to facilitate length adjustment so that the shovel 5 can be brought closer to the heating tube. The connecting rod 302 can be rotatably connected to the adjusting rod 301, so that the mounting base 4 can rotate in the horizontal plane.
[0050] Furthermore, it also includes: a pulley 305, which is rotatably mounted on the slide block 3, and the pulley 305 is rolled on the support rod 2. The slide block 3 is moved on the support rod 2 through the pulley 305.
[0051] In use, the slide block 3 moves via the pulley 305, which reduces sliding resistance and makes axial movement smoother. Furthermore, the connection of the pulley 305 allows the support rod 2 to rotate.
[0052] Furthermore, it also includes: a bracket 6, of which there are two, the two brackets 6 are respectively disposed on both sides of the slide 3; an adjusting seat 601, which is slidably disposed on the bracket 6; and an illumination lamp 7, which is rotatably disposed on the adjusting seat 601.
[0053] During use, a large light is usually installed inside the asphalt tank, but it often blocks the light when cleaning the heating element, making it difficult to see the cleaning area. The bracket 6 is mounted on the slide 3 and can move with the slide 3, ensuring the illumination lamp 7 remains focused on the cleaning area. Illumination lamps 7 can be installed on the brackets 6 on both sides of the slide 3, providing simultaneous illumination from both sides. The adjusting seat 601 is slidably mounted on the bracket 6 for easy adjustment of the position of the illumination lamp 7, and the illumination lamp 7 can be rotated up and down on the adjusting seat 601 for easy adjustment of the illumination angle.
[0054] An intermediate seat 602 can also be added. The intermediate seat 602 is rotatably mounted on the adjusting seat 601 to achieve horizontal rotation. The illumination lamp 7 is rotatably mounted on the intermediate seat 602. That is, the illumination lamp 7 is rotatably mounted on the adjusting seat 601 through the intermediate seat 602, which improves the adjustability of the illumination angle of the illumination lamp 7.
[0055] Furthermore, the positioning rod 101 is a telescopic structure. One end of the positioning rod 101 is hinged to the support ring 1. The moving end of the positioning rod 101 has an abutment part 1011, which is used to abut against the inner wall of the asphalt tank. It also includes a buckle 102, of which there are several. A buckle 102 is provided on the outside of the support ring 1 for locking the adjusting rod 301.
[0056] In use, the positioning rod 101 adopts a telescopic structure, which facilitates stable support and can adapt to asphalt tanks of different diameters. The positioning rod 101 is hinged to the outside of the support ring 1, and the support angle can be adjusted. It can be stored. After the positioning rod 101 is rotated close to the outside of the support ring 1, it can be locked in place by the buckle 102, which ensures stable storage and facilitates entry into the asphalt tank.
[0057] Furthermore, there are three support rings 1, and the three support rings 1 are arranged in sequence at intervals parallel to the axis of the asphalt tank; there are two support rods 2, and one support rod 2 is arranged between every two adjacent support rings 1; the opposite sides of the two support rods 2 are movably arranged on the middle support ring 1.
[0058] When using an asphalt tank, especially if it is long, and to ensure stability, the two support rings 1 should not be too far apart. After cleaning one area, the tank can be moved to continue cleaning. Multiple support rings 1 can also be used to extend the distance, allowing multiple people to work simultaneously in different cleaning areas. Each cleaning area is defined by the space between two adjacent support rings 1. Three support rings 1 spaced apart can be used to create two separate cleaning areas.
[0059] Furthermore, one end of the support rod 2 has a slot 201 and the other end has a post 202. The two support rods 2 are connected by inserting the post 202 and the slot 201, and the two support rods 2 are moved synchronously.
[0060] In use, when three support rings 1 are set, the two support rods 2 can slide independently or synchronously. Both ends of the support rods 2 are fitted with insert pins 202 and slots 201. At the point where the two support rods 2 meet on the middle support ring 1, the insert pins 202 can be inserted into the slots 201 to achieve a connection and synchronized sliding. Synchronized movement of the front and rear areas helps improve work efficiency.
[0061] The support ring 1 can be a ring structure with a through groove in the middle. The support rod 2 can be based on the structure of a train wheel and has the ability to slide and rotate on the support ring 1, with good mobility.
