[0023] 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 specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0024] like Figure 1 - Figure 8 As shown, this utility model proposes an automatic well site measuring tank device, which includes an oil tank body 1, which serves as the main container for storing oil. An oil inlet 12 is provided on one side of the top of the oil tank body 1 to facilitate the injection of oil. Several support legs 10 are provided at the bottom to support the entire oil tank body 1 and keep it stable. An oil drain valve pipe 11 is also provided at the bottom to discharge oil when needed. A transparent tube 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the oil tank body 1 through several connecting blocks 40. The transparent tube 4 is used to visually display the changes of the capacity display component 2, thereby realizing the observation of the oil volume in the oil tank. A guide component 3 is provided on the top of the oil tank body 1, and the capacity display component 2 is movably installed in the guide component 3, with one end extending into the oil tank body 1 and the other end located in the transparent tube 4.

[0025] The guide assembly 3 includes an n-shaped shell 30 disposed on top of the oil tank body 1. One port of the n-shaped shell 30 is located above the oil tank body 1, and the other port is located above the transparent tube 4, forming a channel structure spanning the oil tank body 1 and the transparent tube 4. At the two corners inside the n-shaped shell 30, rollers 32 are movably mounted via a pair of bearing seats 31. This structural design allows the capacity display assembly 2 to move smoothly between the oil tank body 1 and the transparent tube 4 under the guidance of the rollers 32, reducing friction and jamming during movement and ensuring the stability of the entire device operation.

[0026] The capacity display component 2 and the guide component 3 work closely together to realize the function of measuring and displaying the oil volume. Specifically, the oil tank body 1 is provided with slide rails 13 through several pairs of mounting rods 15 to guide the movement of the capacity display component 2 in the oil tank body 1. The capacity display component 2 includes a connecting rope 22 movably mounted on two rollers 32. The two ends of the connecting rope 22 are located in the slide rail 13 and the transparent tube 4, respectively. The end of the connecting rope 22 located in the slide rail 13 is connected to a floating block 20. The top of the floating block 20 is provided with a pair of full counterweights 24. The function of the counterweights is to ensure that the floating block 20 can float stably on the oil surface under the combined action of the buoyancy of the oil and its own weight, and move accurately with the rise and fall of the liquid level. The end of the connecting rope 22 located in the transparent tube 4 is provided with an observation block 21. The top of the observation block 21 is provided with a pair of half counterweights 25 to balance the weight of the observation block 21, so that it can move flexibly and stably in the transparent tube 4 under the traction of the connecting rope 22.

[0027] To further ensure the stability and accuracy of the floating block 20's movement within the oil tank body 1, a pair of guide rods 5 are also provided within the oil tank body 1. The guide rods 5 are located within the slide rail 13, and sliding sleeves 23 are provided on the floating block 20 at positions corresponding to the guide rods 5. The two sliding sleeves 23 are slidably mounted on the guide rods 5. When the floating block 20 moves up and down within the slide rail 13, the sliding sleeves 23 slide along the guide rods 5, effectively preventing the floating block 20 from shifting or shaking during movement, and ensuring that the floating block 20 can always accurately reflect the changes in the liquid level within the oil tank.

[0028] In addition, a baffle 14 is provided at the bottom of the slide 13. The function of the baffle 14 is to prevent impurities or foreign objects that may exist in the oil tank from entering the slide 13 and affecting the normal operation of the floating block 20 and the connecting rope 22, thereby ensuring the reliability and service life of the entire measuring tank device.

[0029] The transparent tube 4 is an important component for observing the oil level. It has a scale 41 on its front side, which is divided according to a pre-set standard. By observing the relative position of the observation block 21 inside the transparent tube 4 and the scale 41, the oil level in the tank can be read intuitively. The back of the transparent tube 4 is equipped with an LED light strip. In low-light environments, the LED light strip can illuminate the transparent tube 4 and the scale 41, making it convenient for operators to observe and read the values, and greatly improving the applicability of the device in different environments.

[0030] In practical applications, oil tanks play a crucial role in storing and transporting oil. When oil needs to be loaded into the main body of the oil tank 1 or discharged from the main body of the oil tank 1, the liquid level inside the main body of the oil tank 1 will rise or fall accordingly.

[0031] Inside the oil tank, there is a floating block 20 that is in contact with the liquid surface. As the liquid level in the oil tank rises and falls, the floating block 20 moves up or down synchronously within its matching slide 13. This design allows the floating block 20 to always follow the position of the liquid surface. The floating block 20 and the observation block 21 are connected by a connecting line. This connection establishes a linkage between the two. When the floating block 20 moves up or down within the slide 13, the observation block 21 moves in the opposite direction within the transparent tube 4 due to the traction of the connecting line. That is, when the floating block 20 rises, the observation block 21 falls, and when the floating block 20 falls, the observation block 21 rises.

[0032] After the oil in the main body 1 is loaded or discharged, the liquid in the tank gradually stabilizes and the liquid surface on the inner wall becomes calm and no longer fluctuates. At this time, by observing the position of the observation block 21 in the transparent tube 4 and checking the alignment of the observation block 21 with the scale mark 41, and comparing it with the pre-calibrated scale mark 41, the total amount of oil in the main body 1 can be accurately determined.

[0033] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of this utility model and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be included within its protection scope. Furthermore, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications falling within the scope and boundaries of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
