Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of oil tank car, concretely relates to a device for automatic control of liquid loading and unloading and transfer in railway oil tank car. BACKGROUND

[0002] Railway oil tank cars play an important role in the transportation of oil, chemicals and other industries, and the process of transferring the liquid in the oil tank car to the oil storage tank and other equipment is crucial. The traditional liquid loading and unloading and transfer process relies heavily on manual operation, which has many problems. For example, manual operation is not only inefficient, but also in the oil unloading operation, due to the involvement of many steps, such as placing the crane pipe, clamping the static clamp, opening and closing various valves, observing the oil level and other operations need to be repeated, the experience and skill requirements of the operating personnel are extremely high, and any carelessness may cause safety accidents, such as backflow accidents caused by delayed valve closure. At the same time, manual operation has high labor intensity, and operating personnel need to concentrate for a long time in complex working environment, which is easy to cause physical fatigue, and also faces the risk of high-altitude operation and inhaling toxic gases.

[0003] In order to improve the efficiency and safety of railway oil tank car liquid loading and unloading and transfer, automatic control device emerges as the times require, such as the Chinese patent with the authorization announcement number CN219194512U discloses a device for automatic control of liquid loading and unloading and transfer in railway oil tank car, which can generate an execution scheme according to the acquired state and data analysis, and drive the field equipment according to the execution scheme, instead of manual operation.

[0004] However, some existing automatic control devices still have certain defects in actual application. For example, once the key solenoid valve in some devices fails and needs to be repaired, the operation of the entire device often needs to be stopped, which will cause the interruption of liquid loading and unloading and transfer, bring inconvenience to production and operation, and cause economic loss. Moreover, during the repair process, the replacement operation of the solenoid valve is complex, and it is difficult to quickly enable the standby solenoid valve, further prolonging the downtime. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a railway oil tank car liquid loading and unloading and transfer automatic control device that can reduce the downtime of the device during solenoid valve repair.
