Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of argon gas recovery tank technology, and in particular to a tank support structure for argon gas recovery. Background Technology

[0002] Argon is a colorless, odorless monatomic gas with a relative atomic mass of 39.948. It is generally produced by liquefying air and then fractionally distilling it. The argon gas is transported to the argon recovery station area through a main pipeline, and the recovered argon gas is finally stored in argon tanks.

[0003] In the prior art, traditional argon recovery tanks need to be placed on a support structure during use. However, the existing support structures have significant drawbacks. For example, the argon recovery tank support structure proposed in CN 214580460U uses two support plates for support, but their dimensions are fixed and cannot support argon tanks of different lengths. Furthermore, simply placing the tank on two support plates without securing it results in poor tank stability. Therefore, this utility model proposes an argon recovery tank support structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a tank support structure for argon gas recovery.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An argon gas recovery tank support structure includes a base. A groove is formed at the upper end of the base. Two symmetrically arranged sliders are slidably connected inside the groove. A movable plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of each slider. A support plate is positioned above each movable plate. An arc-shaped groove is formed at the upper end of each support plate. A shock-absorbing mechanism for damping the support plate is provided on each movable plate. An adjustment mechanism for adjusting the distance between the two support plates is provided inside the groove. The adjustment mechanism includes a double-ended threaded rod rotatably connected between the inner walls of both ends of the groove. The double-ended threaded rod passes through the two sliders and is threadedly connected to them.

[0007] Preferably, the shock absorption mechanism includes a movable groove formed on the upper end of the movable plate, two symmetrically arranged movable blocks are slidably connected in the movable groove, a rotating plate is rotatably connected to the upper end of each of the two movable blocks, a fixed block is rotatably connected to the end of each of the two rotating plates away from the movable blocks, and the two fixed blocks are fixedly connected to the lower end of the support plate.

[0008] Preferably, dampers are fixedly connected to the upper ends of both movable plates, and the telescopic ends of both dampers are fixedly connected to the lower ends of the support plate on the same side.

[0009] Preferably, a motor is fixedly connected to the side wall of the base, and the end of the output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the end of the double-threaded rod.

[0010] Preferably, both of the arc-shaped grooves are provided with anti-slip pads, and both anti-slip pads are made of rubber.

[0011] Preferably, the sidewalls of the plurality of movable blocks are all elastically connected to the inner wall of the movable groove on the same side by springs.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. By setting an adjustment mechanism, when it is necessary to support tanks of different lengths, the output shaft of the drive motor rotates, which drives the double-headed threaded rod to rotate, thereby driving the two sliders connected to it to move towards the middle, driving the moving plates on both sides to move, and driving the support plates on both sides to move. By adjusting the distance between the support plates on both sides, tanks of different lengths can be supported. At the same time, the moving plates on both sides continue to move, and the support plates on both sides move towards the middle. The inner walls of the two arc-shaped grooves can clamp the two ends of the tank, thereby fixing the tank and improving its stability.

[0014] 2. By setting up a shock absorption mechanism, when the tank is supported, if the tank is vibrated by external factors, the support plates on both sides can squeeze the fixed blocks on both sides during the vibration process, drive the rotating plates on both sides to rotate, push the moving blocks on both sides to move, squeeze the spring, and squeeze the damper at the same time, so as to realize shock absorption and buffering of the tank and improve the stability of the tank support.

Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-5 An argon gas recovery tank support structure includes a base 1, a groove 8 at the upper end of the base 1, two symmetrically arranged sliders 7 are slidably connected inside the groove 8, a movable plate 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of each slider 7, a support plate 3 is provided above each movable plate 2, and an arc-shaped groove 4 is provided at the upper end of each support plate 3.

[0023] In this utility model, both movable plates 2 are provided with a shock-absorbing mechanism for damping the support plate 3. The shock-absorbing mechanism includes a movable groove 14 opened at the upper end of the movable plate 2. Two symmetrically arranged movable blocks 13 are slidably connected in the movable groove 14. The upper ends of the two movable blocks 13 are rotatably connected to a rotating plate 11. The ends of the two rotating plates 11 away from the movable blocks 13 are rotatably connected to a fixed block 10. The two fixed blocks 10 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the support plate 3. The upper ends of the two movable plates 2 are fixedly connected to a damper 6. The telescopic ends of the two dampers 6 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the support plate 3 on the same side. The side walls of the multiple movable blocks 13 are elastically connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 14 on the same side by springs 12.

[0024] In this utility model, the slide groove 8 is provided with an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the distance between the two support plates 3. The adjustment mechanism includes a double-threaded rod 9 rotatably connected between the inner walls of both ends of the slide groove 8. The double-threaded rod 9 passes through the two sliders 7 and is threadedly connected to them. A motor 5 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the base 1. The output shaft end of the motor 5 is fixedly connected to the end of the double-threaded rod 9. The threads at both ends of the double-threaded rod 9 are in opposite directions. When rotated, the sliders 7 threadedly connected to it on both sides can move in opposite directions.

[0025] In this invention, anti-slip pads are provided in both arc-shaped grooves 4. Both anti-slip pads are made of rubber. Under the action of the anti-slip pads, the friction between the arc-shaped grooves 4 and the surface of the tank can be increased, thereby preventing the tank from rotating or moving when supported.

[0026] When this utility model is in use, if it is necessary to support tanks of different lengths, the output shaft of the drive motor 5 rotates, driving the double-headed threaded rod 9 to rotate, thereby driving the two sliders 7 connected to it to move towards the middle, driving the moving plates 2 on both sides to move, and driving the support plates 3 on both sides to move. By adjusting the distance between the support plates 3 on both sides, tanks of different lengths can be supported. At the same time, the moving plates 2 on both sides continue to move, and the support plates 3 on both sides move towards the middle. The inner walls of the two arc-shaped grooves 4 can clamp the two ends of the tank to fix the tank. When supporting the tank, if the tank is vibrated by external factors, the support plates 3 on both sides can squeeze the fixing blocks 10 on both sides during the vibration, driving the rotating plates 11 on both sides to rotate, pushing the moving blocks 13 on both sides to move, squeezing the springs 12, and squeezing the dampers 6 to achieve shock absorption and buffering of the tank, thereby improving the stability of the tank support.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
