Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of floating roof technology, and in particular to a floating roof mounting bracket for storage tanks. Background Technology
[0002] A floating roof is an energy-saving and environmentally friendly device that rises and falls with the liquid level in a storage tank using buoyancy. It does not pollute oil or chemicals, reduces the loss of volatile media, prevents air pollution, saves energy, and reduces safety risks. It is an ideal internal floating roof with features such as low cost, short construction period, corrosion resistance, small footprint, and long service life, making it popular among internal floating roof manufacturers. To improve the stability and convenience of using the floating roof in the storage tank, a floating roof mounting bracket is required.
[0003] However, existing floating roof mounting brackets have some problems. Due to the limited space inside the storage tank, traditional mounting brackets often cannot guarantee sufficient stability, especially when the liquid inside the storage tank fluctuates greatly. The brackets are prone to tilting or displacement, affecting the normal operation of the floating roof. Secondly, the process of placing the brackets inside the storage tank is relatively complicated, requires a lot of manpower, and is prone to errors, resulting in unstable brackets. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem this utility model aims to solve is the insufficient stability of the floating roof mounting bracket inside the storage tank during installation and use, as well as the complexity and time-consuming installation process.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a floating roof mounting bracket for a storage tank, including a storage tank and a bracket body located inside the storage tank. A guide column is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket body, and a floating roof is slidably connected to the guide column. Multiple suction cups are fixedly connected to the bottom of the bracket body, and multiple rolling mechanisms are installed at the edge of the bracket body.
[0006] As a further improvement of this utility model, the floating roof is fitted to the inner wall of the storage tank.
[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, the number of suction cups is four and they are distributed in a rectangular shape at the bottom of the support body.
[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, the rolling mechanism includes a fixed box that is fixedly connected to the main body of the support and has an opening at one end. A connecting column is slidably connected inside the fixed box. One end of the connecting column extends to the outside of the fixed box and is fixedly connected to a fixed seat. A roller is rotatably connected inside the fixed seat. The end of the connecting column away from the fixed seat is connected to the side wall of the fixed box through a spring located inside the fixed box.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the end of the connecting column away from the fixed seat is fixedly connected to a guide rod that passes through the side wall of the fixed box, and a spring is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Through the design of suction cups and rolling mechanism, this utility model significantly improves the stability of the floating roof mounting bracket inside the storage tank. The suction cups can firmly adhere to the bottom of the storage tank, ensuring that the bracket remains stable when the liquid fluctuates. At the same time, the rolling mechanism makes it easier to move the bracket when it is placed inside the storage tank, reducing the resistance and complexity of the installation process, simplifying the installation procedure, and making it highly practical.

[0015] The directional terms such as up, down, left, right, front, back, front, back, top, and bottom mentioned or possibly mentioned in this specification are defined relative to their structure and are relative concepts. Therefore, they may vary depending on their location and usage; thus, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive terms.
[0016] The singular forms “a,” “the,” and “the” used in this specification are intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term “and / or” as used herein refers to and includes one or more of the associated listed items, any or all possible combinations thereof.
[0017] To make the technical problems to be solved, the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0018] This utility model provides the following: Figure 1-3 The illustrated floating roof mounting bracket for a storage tank includes a storage tank 1 and a bracket body 2 located inside the storage tank 1. A guide column 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket body 2, and a floating roof 4 slidably connected to the guide column 3 passes through it. Multiple suction cups 5 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the bracket body 2, and multiple rolling mechanisms 6 are installed at the edges of the bracket body 2, making the movement of the bracket body 2 inside the storage tank 1 more flexible and facilitating the placement of the bracket body 2 inside the storage tank 1. The floating roof 4 fits against the inner wall of the storage tank 1, reducing the loss of volatile media, preventing air pollution, and saving energy. The number of suction cups 5 is four and they are rectangularly distributed at the bottom of the bracket body 2, improving the stability of the bracket body 2.
[0019] like Figure 3 As shown, the rolling mechanism 6 of this utility model includes a fixed box 601 fixedly connected to the support body 2 and having an opening at one end. A connecting post 602 is slidably connected inside the fixed box 601. One end of the connecting post 602 extends to the outside of the fixed box 601 and is fixedly connected to a fixed seat 603. A roller 604 is rotatably connected inside the fixed seat 603. The end of the connecting post 602 away from the fixed seat 603 is connected to the side wall of the fixed box 601 through a spring 605 located inside the fixed box 601. A guide rod 606 passing through the side wall of the fixed box 601 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting post 602 away from the fixed seat 603, and the spring 605 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 606.
[0020] Working Principle: In practical implementation, the support body 2 is first placed inside the storage tank 1. The roller 604 of the rolling mechanism 6 is pushed towards the fixed box 601. At this time, the connecting column 602 compresses the spring 605, inserting the support body 2 from the top of the storage tank 1. The roller 604 rolls along the side wall of the storage tank 1, allowing the support body 2 to move stably to the bottom of the storage tank 1. When the support body 2 reaches the bottom of the storage tank 1, the suction cup 5 at the bottom of the support body 2 adheres to the bottom wall of the storage tank 1, enhancing the stability of the support body 2. Then, the floating plate 4 is installed inside the storage tank 1 through the guide column 3. The installation process becomes simple and quick, greatly reducing the manpower and time required for installation, while ensuring the accuracy and stability of the installation.
