Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of lubricating oil storage tanks, and in particular relates to a stratified lubricating oil storage tank. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional storage methods often involve simply placing lubricating oil in a single large storage tank or multiple independent small storage tanks. A single large storage tank is prone to mixing of different oils. Once impurities or incompatible components are mixed in, the performance of the entire tank of lubricating oil deteriorates or even becomes unusable, resulting in huge economic losses. Although multiple independent small storage tanks can avoid mixing, they are inefficient in terms of space utilization, complex in management, and time-consuming and labor-intensive in inventorying and retrieving oil, making it difficult to meet the needs of enterprises for efficient production and operation. In addition, lubricating oil storage is sensitive to environmental conditions. Changes in temperature and humidity can affect its physicochemical properties. Conventional storage facilities have limitations in temperature and humidity control and cannot accurately maintain the optimal storage conditions for oil. Therefore, it is necessary to store lubricating oil in layers.

[0003] However, in the existing lubricating oil stratification storage tanks, over time, the lubricating oil will settle and separate into layers within the tank. This makes it difficult to evenly stir the lubricating oil when taking it out, resulting in uneven oil composition and affecting its performance. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a lubricating oil stratification storage tank. By setting up a stirring mechanism, it solves the problem that in existing lubricating oil stratification storage tanks, the lubricating oil will precipitate and stratify in the storage tank over time, and it is not convenient to stir the lubricating oil evenly when taking out the oil, resulting in uneven oil composition and affecting the use effect.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a layered storage tank for lubricating oil, including a cylinder, on which a plurality of stirring mechanisms and constant pressure mechanisms are provided;

[0007] The cylinder contains several storage tanks. The bottom of the lower storage tank is fixedly connected to the cylinder. A motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinder. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft via a coupling. The top of the rotating shaft extends into the cylinder and is rotatably connected to the cylinder. The top of the rotating shaft passes through several storage tanks and is rotatably connected to several storage tanks. The stirring mechanism includes a connecting frame fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft. The constant pressure mechanism includes a constant pressure pipe connected to the top of the cylinder.

[0008] Furthermore, a plurality of rotating shafts 2 pass through the connecting frame, and the plurality of rotating shafts 2 are rotatably connected to the connecting frame. The bottom of the plurality of rotating shafts 2 extends into the storage tank. A plurality of stirring rods are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the plurality of rotating shafts 2, and gears are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the plurality of rotating shafts 2.

[0009] Furthermore, a toothed ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cylinder, the toothed ring meshes with several gears, several connecting rods are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the toothed ring, and the side of the connecting rods away from the toothed ring is fixedly connected to the cylinder. Two cross support frames are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the constant pressure tube, and a ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the constant pressure tube.

[0010] Furthermore, a piston is slidably connected to the inner wall of the ring, and a sliding rod is fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the piston. The two sliding rods pass through two cross support frames on opposite sides, and the two sliding rods are slidably connected to the two cross support frames respectively.

[0011] Furthermore, springs are fitted on the outer walls of both slide rods. The sides of the two springs that are far apart from each other are fixedly connected to two cross support frames, while the sides of the two springs that are close to each other are fixedly connected to the piston.

[0012] Furthermore, a fixing ring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of each of the two upper storage tanks, and a through hole is opened on each of the two fixing rings. Both fixing rings are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cylinder. A feed pipe is connected to the right outer wall of each of the storage tanks, and the feed pipe extends to the outside of the cylinder on the side away from the storage tanks. A discharge pipe with a valve is connected to the left outer wall of each of the storage tanks, and the discharge pipe with a valve extends to the outside of the cylinder on the side away from the storage tanks.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. By setting up a stirring mechanism, when oil needs to be extracted, the motor can be started. The motor will drive the connecting frame to rotate through the first rotating shaft. When the connecting frame rotates, several second rotating shafts will revolve around the first rotating shaft. During this process, several second rotating shafts will also rotate on their own axis under the interaction of gears and gear rings, thereby driving the stirring rod to evenly stir the lubricating oil in the storage tank. After stirring is completed, the valve on the discharge pipe with valve is opened to allow it to flow out through the discharge pipe and be collected. This can cover different areas in the storage tank, greatly reducing the occurrence of stirring dead zones, thereby evenly stirring the lubricating oil, ensuring that the extracted lubricating oil has consistent composition and performance, avoiding sedimentation and stratification during oil extraction, and ensuring that the composition of the lubricating oil remains consistent when extracting oil.

[0015] 2. By setting a constant pressure mechanism, the air pressure inside the device will change during storage. If the air pressure inside the device decreases, a negative pressure will be formed inside the device, which will pull the piston downward. At this time, the lower spring will be compressed and the upper spring will be stretched. At this time, a gap will appear between the piston and the ring, and outside air will enter the cylinder through this gap until the air pressure inside the device returns to equilibrium. Then, the two springs will drive the piston to return to its original position, thereby restoring the device to a seal. Conversely, if the air pressure inside the device increases, the piston will move upward. Similarly, when the air pressure inside the device returns to equilibrium, the device will return to a seal. This allows for automatic adjustment of the air pressure inside the storage device. Whether the air pressure decreases to form a negative pressure or increases, the air pressure can be restored to equilibrium through the movement of the piston and the action of the springs, avoiding adverse effects on the stored lubricating oil due to air pressure changes.

[0016] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The stirring mechanism 2 includes a connecting frame 211 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 103.

Several connecting rods 216 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the gear ring 215. The side of the connecting rods 216 away from the gear ring 215 is fixedly connected to the cylinder 1. By setting the stirring mechanism 2, different areas inside the storage tank can be covered, greatly reducing the occurrence of stirring dead corners, thereby uniformly stirring the lubricating oil, ensuring that the composition and performance of the extracted lubricating oil are consistent, avoiding sedimentation and stratification when extracting oil, and ensuring that the composition of the lubricating oil is consistent when extracting oil.

[0028] The constant pressure mechanism 3 includes a constant pressure pipe 311 connected to the top of the cylinder 1. Two cross-shaped support frames 312 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the constant pressure pipe 311. A ring 313 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the constant pressure pipe 311. A piston 314 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the ring 313. Slide rods 315 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the piston 314.

Similarly, when the air pressure inside the device returns to equilibrium, the device will restore a seal.
