Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil tanker technology, and in particular to a protective plate for oil tankers that is easy to assemble. Background Technology
[0002] Tanker trucks, as special transport vehicles, are mainly used to transport various types of oil, and their tanks are the core structure for storing and transporting oil. The design of the tank not only relates to the safety of oil storage but also directly affects the stability and safety of the tanker truck during operation. In the long-term development of tanker trucks, the structural design of the tank has gradually become a key focus of the industry.
[0003] However, the tank structures on existing tank trucks are relatively simple, mostly consisting of only a tank body and a simple support structure, lacking cushioning protection for the oil inside. This design may meet basic needs when the tank truck is stationary, but during movement, due to the complex and changing road conditions and the instability of the vehicle, the oil inside the tank will slosh and collide with the inner wall. This collision not only generates noise, but more importantly, it destabilizes the tank truck's center of gravity, increasing the risk during operation and posing a safety hazard. This is especially true when the tank truck is traveling on rough roads or undergoing emergency braking, where the violent sloshing of the oil and the impact force with the tank wall will further increase, potentially leading to tank deformation or damage, seriously threatening the safety of oil storage and transportation. Therefore, addressing the technical problems of the simple tank structure and lack of cushioning protection in existing tank trucks, we urgently need a protective plate for tank trucks that is easy to assemble to solve these problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a protective plate for oil tankers that is easy to assemble, which solves the problem that the oil tank structure on existing oil tankers is relatively simple, mostly consisting of only a tank body and a simple support structure, lacking buffer protection for the oil in the tank.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A protective plate for oil tankers that is easy to assemble includes an outer tank body. An inner frame is fixedly connected to the inner side of the outer tank body by bolts. Several protective plates are slidably connected to the inner side of the inner frame. A connecting plate is fixedly connected to the top of all the protective plates. Several connecting pipes are provided on the upper inner side of the inner frame. One end of each connecting pipe passes through all the connecting plates in sequence. Several buffer grooves are opened on one side of each protective plate. Buffer plates are provided on the inner side of each buffer groove. One side of each buffer plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of each buffer groove by several dampers.
[0007] Preferably, all protective plates have sliders fixedly connected to both sides, and all sliders are slidably connected between the inner walls of the grooves.
[0008] Preferably, all protective plates have several connecting slots.
[0009] Preferably, the top of the inner frame is fixedly connected to a top cover by bolts, and both sides of the top cover are provided with fixing plates, and the two fixing plates are fixedly connected to one side of the top cover and one side of the inner frame by bolts respectively.
[0010] Preferably, valve bodies are connected to both sides of the inner frame, and one end of each valve body penetrates the side wall of the outer tank.
[0011] Preferably, all sliders are clearance-fitted with all grooves.
[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] This invention, through the design of connecting plates and connecting pipes, achieves the goal of connecting all protective plates into one unit, facilitating simultaneous installation of all protective plates and greatly improving installation efficiency. The inner frame design not only provides installation space for the protective plates but also acts as a barrier to isolate the oil, effectively preventing violent swaying of the oil within the inner frame and significantly reducing the impact of the oil on the inner wall of the frame. The connecting groove design on the protective plates ensures the fluidity of the oil within the inner frame, preventing it from being affected by the obstruction of the protective plates, thus guaranteeing the normal transportation and use of the oil. The design of the buffer groove, buffer plate, and damper effectively absorbs the swaying energy of the oil, reducing the amplitude of oil swaying. This buffering protection is particularly evident when the tanker truck is traveling on uneven roads or undergoing emergency braking. Due to the combined effect of the protective plates and buffer structure, the impact of the oil on the overall center of gravity of the tanker truck is effectively reduced, improving the stability and safety of the tanker truck during operation and reducing the risks during travel. This invention effectively solves the technical problems of existing oil tanker trucks having a simple tank structure and lacking buffer protection for oil, thereby improving the driving stability and safety of oil tankers and providing better protection for oil storage and transportation.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0023] Reference Figure 1-6 A protective plate for oil tankers that is easy to assemble includes an outer tank body 1. An inner frame 3 is bolted to the inner side of the outer tank body 1, and several protective plates 6 are slidably connected to the inner side of the inner frame 3, forming a multi-layer protection within the inner frame 3 to reduce the swaying and impact of oil during transportation and protect the oil safety. A connecting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top of all protective plates 6, and several connecting pipes 9 are provided on the upper inner side of the inner frame 3. One end of all connecting pipes 9 passes through all connecting plates 8 in sequence. Several buffer grooves 12 are opened on one side of all protective plates 6, and buffer plates 10 are provided on the inner side of all buffer grooves 12. When the oil sways, they cooperate with dampers 11 to absorb the swaying energy and reduce the swaying amplitude. One side of all buffer plates 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of all buffer grooves 12 through several dampers 11. The dampers 11 provide damping force and cooperate with the buffer plates 10 to form a buffer system to reduce the impact of oil on the oil tank.
[0024] Furthermore, all protective plates 6 are fixedly connected to sliders 14 on both sides, and all sliders 14 are slidably connected through the inner walls of the slide grooves 13. When assembling the protective plate 6, align the sliders 14 on both sides of the protective plate 6 with the slide grooves 13 on the inner frame 3, and then easily slide them in until the protective plate 6 is fully installed. The sliding connection design between the sliders 14 and the slide grooves 13 makes the installation and disassembly of the protective plate 6 simpler and faster, greatly improving the assembly efficiency of the tanker truck protective plate, and also facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement.
[0025] Furthermore, all protective plates 6 are provided with several connecting grooves 7. The connecting grooves 7 on the protective plates 6 ensure that the oil can flow freely inside the oil tank without being blocked by the protective plates 6. The design of the connecting grooves 7 effectively ensures the fluidity of the oil in the inner frame 3 and avoids the oil from accumulating in a certain area due to the obstruction of the protective plates 6, which would lead to uneven pressure, thereby improving the safety and stability of the oil tanker in transporting oil.
[0026] Furthermore, a top cover 4 is bolted to the top of the inner frame 3, and a fixing plate 5 is provided on both sides of the top cover 4. The two fixing plates 5 are bolted to one side of the top cover 4 and one side of the inner frame 3 respectively. The top cover 4 is installed on the top of the inner frame 3, and the top cover 4 is firmly connected to the inner frame 3 by the fixing plates 5 to ensure that the top cover 4 will not fall off. The cooperation between the top cover 4 and the fixing plates 5, as well as the bolted connection, effectively enhances the sealing of the oil tanker, prevents oil leakage due to bumps or collisions during transportation, and improves the transportation safety of the oil tanker.
[0027] Furthermore, valve bodies 2 are connected to both sides of the inner frame 3, and one end of each valve body 2 penetrates the side wall of the outer tank 1. Installing valve bodies 2 on both sides of the inner frame 3 and having one end of the valve body 2 penetrate the side wall of the outer tank 1 facilitates the entry and exit of oil and the maintenance of the oil tank. The setting of valve bodies 2 makes the filling and discharge of oil more convenient and faster, improves the ease of use of the oil tanker, and also facilitates the cleaning and maintenance of the oil tank.
[0028] Furthermore, all sliders 14 are clearance fits with all grooves 13.
[0029] In summary:
[0030] In the tanker truck's tank section, the first thing you see is the outer tank body 1, which is the main structure for storing and transporting oil. To enhance the cushioning protection of the oil, an inner frame 3 is bolted to the inside of the outer tank body 1. This inner frame 3 not only provides installation space for the protective plates 6 but also acts as a barrier to isolate the oil. Next, the protective plates 6 are assembled. All protective plates 6 have sliders 14 fixedly connected to both sides, and these sliders 14 engage with grooves 13 on the inner frame 3. During assembly, align the sliders 14 on both sides of the protective plate 6 with the grooves 13 on the inner frame 3, and then easily slide them in until the protective plate 6 is fully installed. This sliding connection design makes the installation and removal of the protective plates 6 simpler and faster, greatly improving the assembly efficiency of the tanker truck's protective plates, and also facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement. All protective plates 6 have connecting plates 8 fixedly connected to their tops, while the upper inner side of the inner frame 3 has several connecting pipes 9. By sequentially threading one end of each connecting pipe 9 through all the connecting plates 8, all the protective plates 6 are connected as a single unit. This design allows for simultaneous installation of all protective plates 6, further improving installation efficiency. The protective plates 6 also feature connecting grooves 7, ensuring free flow of oil within the tank without being obstructed by the protective plates 6. The connecting grooves 7 effectively guarantee the fluidity of the oil within the inner frame 3, preventing oil accumulation in a certain area due to the protective plates 6, which could lead to uneven pressure and improve the safety and stability of oil transport by tanker trucks. Furthermore, to further reduce oil sloshing, several buffer grooves 12 are provided on one side of all protective plates 6. These buffer grooves 12 have buffer plates 10 on their inner sides, and one side of each buffer plate 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the buffer groove 12 via several dampers 11. When the oil sloshes within the inner frame 3, these buffer plates 10 and dampers 11 provide excellent cushioning, absorbing the sloshing energy and reducing the amplitude of the sloshing. A top cover 4 is bolted to the top of the inner frame 3. Fixing plates 5 are provided on both sides of the top cover 4, and both fixing plates 5 are bolted to one side of the top cover 4 and one side of the inner frame 3 respectively. This design ensures that the top cover 4 will not fall off, effectively enhancing the sealing of the oil tank and preventing oil leakage due to bumps or collisions during transportation, thus improving the transportation safety of the oil tanker. Simultaneously, valve bodies 2 are connected to both sides of the inner frame 3, with one end of each valve body 2 penetrating the side wall of the outer tank 1. This design facilitates the loading and unloading of oil and the maintenance of the oil tank. The valve bodies 2 make oil filling and unloading more convenient and faster, improving the ease of use of the oil tanker, and also facilitating cleaning and maintenance of the oil tank. Furthermore, all sliders 14 are clearance-fitted with all sliding grooves 13.This clearance fit design reduces the friction between the slider 14 and the groove 13, making the sliding of the protective plate 6 smoother and further improving assembly efficiency and user experience.
