[0024] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-5 This utility model discloses an ethylene oxide storage tank leak-proof device, comprising: a storage tank body 1, an annular fixing block 2 fixedly connected to the side surface of the storage tank body 1, a groove 3 provided inside the annular fixing block 2, a slider 4 slidably connected to the inner surface of the groove 3, a reinforcing plate 5 fixedly connected to the side surface of the slider 4, the side surface of the annular fixing block 2 slidably connected to the reinforcing plate 5, a buffer plate 6 fixedly connected to the side surface of the reinforcing plate 5, a damping plate 7 fixedly connected to the side surface of the buffer plate 6, and a buffer cotton 8 fixedly connected to the side surface of the damping plate 7. The reinforcing plate 5 provides support for the buffer plate 6, the damping plate 7, and the buffer cotton 8. When the slider 4 is inserted into the groove 3, the shaking generated during the movement of multiple storage tanks 1 on a moving frame or moving vehicle is buffered by the buffer plate 6, the damping plate 7, and the buffer cotton 8. At the same time, it can prevent collisions between multiple storage tanks 1 from causing damage to the surface of the storage tank 1, thereby preventing leakage of the storage tank due to collisions, and effectively reducing the noise generated by collisions during the movement of multiple storage tanks.

[0026] A connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the slider 4. The connecting plate 9 has a first threaded mounting hole 10 inside. A fixing bolt 11 is threadedly connected to the inner surface of the first threaded mounting hole 10. A second threaded mounting hole 12 is provided inside the annular fixing block 2. The inner surface of the second threaded mounting hole 12 is threadedly connected to the fixing bolt 11. The fixing bolt 11 passes through the connecting plate 9 and the second threaded mounting hole 12, so that the connection between the slider 4 and the annular fixing block 2 is stable. When the reinforcing plate 5, buffer plate 6, damping plate 7, and buffer cotton 8 are not used, the fixing bolt 11 can be removed and the slider 4 can be taken out of the groove 3. An anti-slip pad 19 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the storage tank 1. The anti-slip pad 19 makes the storage tank 1 more stable.

[0027] The storage tank 1 has an inlet 13 inside, through which ethylene oxide material can be added. The side surface of the inlet 13 is provided with a sealing cover 14 to seal the inlet 13. The annular fixing block 2 has two handle grooves 15 inside, which are provided on the left and right sides to facilitate workers to move the storage tank 1. The buffer plate 6 has a first opening 16 inside, the damping plate 7 has a second opening 17 inside, and the buffer cotton 8 has a third opening 18 inside. The first opening 16, the second opening 17, and the third opening 18 are connected to each other. The first opening 16, the second opening 17, and the third opening 18 are provided to facilitate workers to find the position of the handle groove 15.

[0028] Working principle: After the storage tank 1 is filled with ethylene oxide material, when the storage tank 1 needs to be moved, the slider 4 is inserted into the groove 3. The fixing bolt 11 passes through the connecting plate 9 and the second threaded mounting hole 12 to make the connection between the slider 4 and the annular fixing block 2 stable. The storage tank 1 can be moved through the hand-locking grooves 15 on both sides of the storage tank 1. After multiple storage tanks 1 are moved to the moving frame or moving vehicle, the anti-slip pad 19 makes the storage tank 1 stable. The shaking generated during the movement is buffered by the buffer plate 6, damping plate 7, and buffer cotton 8. At the same time, it can avoid collisions between multiple storage tanks 1 and damage to the surface of the storage tank 1. This device can buffer the shaking generated during the movement of multiple storage tanks, reduce the collision and friction between storage tanks caused by vibration, reduce the possibility of cracks in the tank due to long-term vibration fatigue, and prevent storage tank leakage caused by collision. It can also effectively reduce the noise generated by collisions during the movement of multiple storage tanks.

[0029] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
