Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of oil tank boxes, specifically relating to an oil tank box with a vent pipe. Background Technology

[0002] In some remote mountainous areas, mining areas, and disaster zones, the construction of conventional gas stations is inconvenient and extremely costly due to their remote location. Furthermore, the temporary nature of construction machinery operations in these areas, with constantly changing work locations, makes fixed gas stations inconvenient for refueling, and they become unusable once the project ends. Therefore, a mobile fuel tanker is designed as a portable refueling device to meet the refueling needs of these special areas.

[0003] Gas station tanks are equipped with vent pipes, which connect the inside and outside of the tank to maintain stable air pressure. When the amount of fuel in the tank decreases, air flows into the tank through the vent pipe to ensure stable pressure; when the amount of fuel increases, air flows out of the tank through the vent pipe to ensure stable pressure. This maintains pressure balance inside and outside the tank, preventing safety issues and avoiding abnormal pressure and malfunctions in fuel inlet / outlet operations. Regulations require that the vent pipe opening be at least 4 meters above the ground. Therefore, fuel tanks used for refueling must be equipped with vent pipes.

[0004] The information disclosed in this background section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the background technology of this application, and therefore may include prior art that is not known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0042] Whenever possible, the various aspects and features described and shown in the specification can be applied individually, and these individual aspects can serve as the subject of a divisional application.

[0043] See Figures 1-7 This is an embodiment of an oil tank container with a vent pipe proposed in this utility model. An oil tank container 100 with a vent pipe includes: a tank body 10, a control box 20 and a vent pipe 50. The tank body 10 has a double-layer body 11 and a single-layer top plate 12. The double-layer body 11 has a double-layer bottom plate, two double-layer end plates and two double-layer side plates.

[0044] A vent 122 is provided on the top plate 12 for connection to the vent pipe 50, and a removable plug is provided at the vent 122. The vent pipe 50 has multiple detachably connected pipe sections 51, and a fixing bracket 60 is provided on the top plate 12 for fixing the multiple pipe sections 51 during transportation. The vent pipe 122 is composed of multiple detachably connected pipe sections 51. During transportation, the pipe sections 51 can be disassembled and fixed using the fixing bracket 60 on the top plate 12. This reduces the transportation volume and facilitates the transportation of the oil tank 100 to remote mountainous areas, mining areas, disaster areas, and other special areas, reducing transportation difficulty and costs. After arriving at the destination, the pipe sections 51 of the vent pipe can be easily assembled and connected to the vent 122 on the top plate 12. The installation process is simple and quick. In use, the vent pipe 50 can stabilize the air pressure in the oil tank by connecting the air inside and outside the oil tank, maintaining the air pressure balance inside and outside the oil tank and avoiding safety problems such as oil inlet / outlet failures caused by abnormal oil tank pressure. A removable plug is provided at the vent 122. When the vent pipe 50 is not needed, it can be blocked to prevent debris from entering the tank. When it is needed, it can be opened again. The use of the vent pipe can be flexibly selected according to the actual situation, which improves the flexibility of the oil tank container.

[0045] In some embodiments of this application, the fixing frame 60 has a support frame 61 fixed to the top plate 12. The support frame 61 has multiple arc-shaped support grooves 611 that match the pipe segment 51, with the pipe segment 51 located within the arc-shaped support grooves 611. The support frame 61, fixed to the top plate 12, has a stable structure and provides reliable support for the pipe segment 51. The arc-shaped support grooves 61 match the pipe segment 51, tightly fitting the pipe segment 51 within the grooves, effectively limiting the swaying and displacement of the pipe segment 51 during transportation, preventing damage from collisions and bumps, and ensuring the integrity of the pipe segment 51 during transportation. The multiple arc-shaped support grooves 611 allow for accurate placement of multiple pipe segments 51. The reasonable arrangement of the pipe segments 51 within the limited space of the top plate 12 fully utilizes the space of the top plate 12 without affecting the structure and function of other parts of the tank container.

[0046] In some embodiments of this application, the fixing frame 60 further includes a baffle 62 detachably fixed to the support frame 61. The baffle 62 and the support frame 61 enclose a receiving space for accommodating multiple pipe segments 51. The baffle 62 and the support frame 61 forming the receiving space can restrict the pipe segments 51 from multiple directions, more effectively preventing the pipe segments 51 from shaking, shifting, or even jumping out of the support groove during transportation, further ensuring the stability and safety of the pipe segments 51 during transportation. Preferably, two fixing frames 60 are provided, and the pipe segments 51 pass through and are fixed to the two fixing frames 60 respectively.

[0047] In some embodiments of this application, the baffle 62 has a baffle 621 and two downwardly bent edges 622 at both ends of the baffle 621. Upper fixed edges 623, spaced apart from each other, are provided at the lower ends of the two downwardly bent edges 622 and are fixed to the ends of the support frame 61. The baffle 621 and the two downwardly bent edges 622 form a U-shaped structure, which increases the strength and rigidity of the baffle 62, making it more robust and durable. The upper fixed edges 623 are positioned along the lower ends of the downwardly bent edges 622 and are spaced apart from each other, allowing for easy fixing of the upper fixed edges 623 to the ends of the support frame 61. The downwardly bent edges 622 can block the pipe segment 51 from the side, preventing the pipe segment 51 from rolling or slipping to one side during transportation. The baffle 621 can further limit the pipe section 51, especially when the pipe section 51 has an upward tendency to jump. The baffle 621 can prevent it from jumping out of the receiving space. In conjunction with the arc-shaped support groove 611, it can effectively limit the pipe section 51 from multiple directions to ensure the stability of the pipe section 51 during transportation.

[0048] In some embodiments of this application, the support frame 61 has a connecting plate 612 located between two adjacent arc-shaped support grooves 611. A first fixing hole is provided on the connecting plate 612, and a second fixing hole matching the first fixing hole is provided on the upper fixing edge 623 of the retainer 62. The first and second fixing holes are connected and fixed by bolts. The bolt connection provides strong fastening force, ensuring that the support frame 61 and the retainer 62 are tightly connected together to form a stable overall structure. During the transportation of the oil tank container, it can effectively withstand the weight of the pipe section 51 and various external forces, ensuring the fixing effect of the retainer 60 on the pipe section. During installation, simply pass the bolt through the first and second fixing holes and tighten the nut to complete the connection; during disassembly, unscrewing the nut allows the retainer 62 to be removed from the support frame 61, facilitating installation before transportation and disassembly after arrival at the destination, thus improving work efficiency. The matching design of the first and second fixing holes enables the retainer 62 to be precisely positioned when installed on the support frame 61, ensuring that the relative position between the retainer 62 and the support frame 61 is accurate, thereby ensuring that the size and shape of the accommodating space meet the design requirements and better accommodate and fix the pipe section 51.

[0049] In some embodiments of this application, the connecting plate 612 and the baffle 621 are arranged parallel to each other and spaced apart. The connecting plate 612 and the baffle 621 are fixed together by bolts. The connecting plate 612 and the baffle 621 are respectively provided with through holes that match the bolts. The lower end of the arc-shaped support groove 611 is welded to the top plate 12.

[0050] In some embodiments of this application, the tank 10 is provided with a partition plate 13 for dividing the internal space, and a flow port 131 for liquid flow is provided between the partition plate 13 and the inner wall of the tank 10. Parallel and spaced connecting plates 612 and baffles 621 are fixed with bolts to form a stable frame structure, thus securing the fixing frame 60 between two adjacent pipe sections 51 placed on the fixing frame 60. The fixing frame 60 is located above the partition plate 13. Welding the lower end of the arc-shaped support groove 611 to the top plate 12 provides high connection strength, ensuring a firm and reliable connection between the arc-shaped support groove 611 and the top plate 12.

[0051] In some embodiments of this application, a plurality of vents 122 are provided on the top plate 12, one of which is connected and fixed to the vent pipe 50, while the other vents 122 are closed by a plug 123. The vent 122 connected and fixed to the vent pipe 50 can be selected according to the situation.

[0052] In some embodiments of this application, a control box 20 for refueling is provided on the top plate 12, and a pressure stabilizing pipe 70 communicating with the inside of the tank 10 is provided inside the control box 20 to maintain stable air pressure inside the tank 10 during transportation. A maintenance cover 124 is provided on the top plate 12, and a partition plate 13 is located between the maintenance cover 124 and the control box 20; the maintenance cover 124 is located between the vent 122 and the control box 20.

[0053] In some embodiments of this application, a vent head 59 is provided at the end of the vent pipe 50 away from the vent port 122. The vent head 59 has a head tube body 591 connected to the vent pipe 50, a cover body 592 covering the upper end of the head tube body 591, and a filter screen 593 located inside the head tube body 591. The cover body 592 has an upwardly curved portion 5922 located on the periphery, and a vent 594 is formed between the upwardly curved portion 5922 and the head tube body 591. The vent pipe 50 is connected to the vent port 122 of the tank 100, and the vent head 59 is located at the end of the vent pipe 50 away from the vent port 122. When the volume of oil in the tank 10 changes, air can enter and exit the tank 10 through the vent port 594 of the vent head 59 and the vent pipe 50, effectively maintaining the air pressure balance inside and outside the tank 10, avoiding problems such as deformation of the tank 10, difficulty in oil intake, or poor oil output caused by abnormal air pressure, and ensuring the safe and stable operation of the tank 10. A filter 593 is installed inside the vent head 59 to filter out dust, impurities, and other particles in the air during the airflow into and out of the tank, preventing them from entering the tank and contaminating the oil, ensuring oil quality, and avoiding damage to refueling equipment and receiving machinery caused by impurities. The upturned portion 5922 around the cover 592 forms a vent 594 with the head tube 591. This design increases the ventilation area, making airflow smoother; it can also adjust the air pressure in time during rapid oil intake or output, reducing pressure fluctuations and improving refueling efficiency. At the same time, the cover 592 can also prevent rainwater and foreign objects from falling directly into the vent head 59 to a certain extent, reducing the risk of rainwater and other substances entering the tank 10 and ensuring that the oil inside the tank 10 is not affected by external liquids.
