Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water tank storage detection and support technology, and in particular to a water tank support device for EHU units. Background Technology
[0002] The net weight of the EHU direct-ventilation 400 main unit water tank is 260kg (mirror-finished stainless steel, 5940mm long, 1594mm wide, and 960mm high). Without fixtures, it is typically placed on a wooden frame for leak testing. Each leak test, after filling with water, brings the net weight to 400kg. Because the dimensions of the water tanks for the left and right main units are uneven, and the wooden frame has poor stability, the excessive weight after filling with water poses a significant safety hazard. Furthermore, the water tank supplier routinely uses wooden structural frames to support the tanks during delivery. This is prone to weld cracking and deformation during transportation. Combined with damage to the wooden frame during transport and the increased weight on the wooden frame during water tank filling tests at the factory, this has resulted in numerous repairs during on-site inspections and water tests. The long repair cycle after stainless steel weld cracking severely impacts the normal operation of the EHU final assembly line.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a support device that is simple in structure, has good load-bearing capacity, and can be used for EHU water tank storage, water storage detection, and transportation. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a support device for EHU unit water tanks, which can be adapted to support the lower structure of EHU water tanks. It has a stable structure and good load-bearing capacity, and can stably support the water tank during transportation and water storage testing.

Detailed Implementation
[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below through detailed embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-4 This embodiment provides an EHU unit water tank support device, including a support base 100. A water tank placement space 200 is formed above the support base 100. The water tank placement space 200 is provided with a left and right unit limiting component 300, a plurality of first support components 400, and a plurality of second support components 500, which are fixedly connected to the support base 100. The left and right unit limiting component 300 is located in the middle of the water tank placement space 200, and the length direction of the left and right unit limiting component 300 is distributed along the width direction of the support base 100. The first support components 400 and the second support components 500 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the left and right unit limiting component 300. Each first support component 400 is distributed near one end of the support base 100 along the width direction, and each second support component 500 is distributed near the other end of the support base 100 along the width direction. The height of the first support component 400 is equal to the height of the left and right unit limiting component 300, and the height of the second support component 500 is lower than the height of the first support component 400. The first and second support components work together to support the lower structure of the EHU water tank, preventing deformation. The raised bottom allows for proper drainage after water storage testing. Simultaneously, the included left and right unit limiting components provide support for the two water tanks of the EHU direct-ventilation unit, preventing displacement and swaying. Due to its stable structure, high strength, and good load-bearing capacity, it is not easily deformed and can stably support the EHU unit water tank during transportation, transfer, and water storage testing. Furthermore, its low cost makes it suitable for widespread use.
[0026] In some specific implementation methods, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The supporting base 100 is a rectangular frame structure formed by welding and splicing several metal square tubes. The square tube structure can resist deformation, has good strength, good load-bearing capacity, can withstand heavy weight without deformation, and has low cost.
[0027] Specifically, as an example, the metal square tubes used to form the support base 100 are stainless steel square tubes with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm and a thickness of 3mm. The dimensions of the support base after welding and splicing are 5770mm*1750mm.
[0028] In some implementations, reference Figures 1-4 The length direction of the first support component 400 and the length direction of the second support component 500 are both distributed along the width direction of the support base 100, thereby providing more stable support for the water tank.
[0029] In some specific embodiments, for example, the number of both the first support assembly 400 and the second support assembly 500 is four. Furthermore, the number of the first and second support assemblies can be flexibly increased or decreased according to the actual size of the water tank to balance support effectiveness and manufacturing cost.
[0030] As an improved implementation method, refer to Figures 1-4 Each of the second support components 500, at its end furthest from the first support component 400, is connected to a first horizontal support rod 1 distributed along the length of the support base 100. These first horizontal support rods allow for lateral connection of the second support components, thus preventing lateral deformation.
[0031] In some specific implementation methods, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first support assembly 400, the second support assembly 500, and the left and right machine limiting assembly 300 are all composed of a second horizontal support rod 2 and two first vertical support rods 3. The two ends of the second horizontal support rod 2 are respectively welded and fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two first vertical support rods 3, and the lower ends of the two first vertical support rods 3 are respectively welded and fixedly connected to the support base frame 100.
[0032] In some implementations, reference Figures 1-4 To limit the placement of the water tank and prevent it from easily sliding and falling, the support base 100 has first limiting rods 4 extending along its width at both ends along its length. A second limiting rod 5 extending along its length is located above the end of the support base 100 closest to the first support assembly 400. The first limiting rods 4 and the second limiting rods 5 are welded and fixed to the support base 100 via second vertical support rods 6. The water tank placement space 200 is formed by the first limiting rods 4, the second limiting rods 5, and the support base 100. Thus, the two first limiting rods along the length of the support base can limit the placement of the water tank, and the second limiting rod along the width of the support base can also limit its placement.
[0033] As an improved implementation method, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A first diagonal brace 7 is welded to the first horizontal support rod 1 and the support base 100; a second diagonal brace 8 is welded to the first vertical support rod 3 and the support base 100; and a third diagonal brace 9 is welded to the second vertical support rod 6 and the support base 100. This further improves the overall strength and makes it less prone to deformation.
[0034] In some specific embodiments, the first horizontal support rod 1, the second horizontal support rod 2, the first vertical support rod 3, the first limiting rod 4, the second limiting rod 5, the second vertical support rod 6, the first diagonal brace 7, the second diagonal brace 8, and the third diagonal brace 9 are all made of metal square tubing. Using metal square tubing allows for convenient welding and fabrication, and provides good overall strength, thus effectively supporting the water tank.
[0035] Specifically, as an example, the first horizontal support rod is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 5770mm; the second horizontal support rod constituting the first support assembly is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 650mm; the first vertical support rod constituting the first support assembly is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 606.5mm; the second horizontal support rod constituting the second support assembly is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 870mm; the first vertical support rod constituting the first support assembly is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 234.5mm; the second horizontal support rod constituting the left and right machine limit assembly is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 234.5mm; The first vertical support rod of the first support assembly is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 606.5mm; the first limiting rod is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 1750mm; the second limiting rod is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 5670mm; the second vertical support rod is made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm, a thickness of 3mm, and a length of 1100mm; there are four first diagonal braces, each made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 40mm*30mm and a thickness of 2mm; the second and third diagonal braces are both made of stainless steel square tubing with a cross-sectional dimension of 50mm*30mm and a thickness of 3mm. Square tube structures can resist deformation, have good strength, good load-bearing capacity, can withstand heavy weights without deformation, and have low cost.
[0036] Furthermore, in some implementations, references Figures 1-4To facilitate transport and movement, the bottom of the support base 100 is provided with several casters 600 equipped with braking devices. Specifically, as an example, a 100mm*80mm fixing plate 10 is welded and fixed to the bottom of the support base 100, and the casters 600 are assembled and fixed to the bottom of the support base 100 through the fixing plate 10.
[0037] When using, such as Figure 3 As shown, the water tank 700 of the EHU direct-ventilation left unit is hoisted and placed in the water tank placement space 200 on the support base 100, and is stably supported by the first support assembly 400 and the second support assembly 500; at the same time, the left and right unit limiting assembly 300 can be used to limit the lower left side of the EHU direct-ventilation left unit water tank 700. Or, as Figure 4 As shown, the water tank 700 of the EHU direct-ventilation right unit is hoisted and placed in the water tank placement space 200 on the support base 100, and is stably supported by the first support assembly 400 and the second support assembly 500; at the same time, the lower right side of the water tank 700 of the EHU direct-ventilation right unit can be limited by the left and right unit limiting assembly 300. In this way, the two water tanks of the EHU direct-ventilation left and right units can be stably supported during transportation, transfer and water storage testing.
