Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a kit, specifically a kit for installing equipment inside a horizontal circular container, belonging to the field of cold box equipment installation technology. Background Technology

[0002] In cryogenic engineering fields such as large-scale air separation, natural gas liquefaction, and ethylene cold separation, cold boxes are one of the core pieces of equipment. A cold box is a sealed shell filled with insulating material, and it integrates core unit equipment. In practical applications, some projects use horizontal circular cold box structures due to site constraints. Installing the core unit equipment inside the narrow, horizontal circular cold box shell is an extremely challenging task. Currently, the installation of such equipment mainly relies on large cranes, winches, and a large amount of manual labor. Operators need to move the equipment into the interior of the horizontal circular cold box shell through hoisting and manual use of tools such as pry bars and hand-operated hoists, pulling, pushing, and adjusting, at the limited end openings of the cold box shell. Due to the large weight of the equipment, it is prone to swaying, lateral deviation, or even loss of control during movement without stable support. This can easily cause equipment damage and high safety risks, and the installation accuracy is difficult to guarantee, resulting in high labor intensity and low efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] Based on the above background, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a kit for installing equipment in a horizontal circular container, which has a reliable structure, is easy to operate, and can realize the safe and accurate installation of equipment in a horizontal circular container.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A kit for installing equipment within a horizontal circular container, comprising:

[0006] A track, which is laid on the inner bottom of the horizontal circular container and extends integrally along its length to the outside of at least one end of the horizontal circular container to form a continuous movement path.

[0007] Multiple support members, each support member having its bottom fixedly connected to a reinforcing ring disposed on the inner wall of the horizontal circular container, and each support member having its top fixedly connected to the bottom of the track; and,

[0008] Multiple movable support devices are movably mounted on the track to support the equipment to be installed.

[0009] The track provides stable guidance, while the support components used to cooperate with the reinforcing ring ensure the structural stability and load-bearing capacity of the track within the horizontal circular container. Combined with the movable support device, the equipment to be installed can be moved stably along the predetermined trajectory to the preset position within the horizontal circular container, achieving safe and accurate installation.

[0010] Preferably, the mobile support device includes a movable wheel frame and a saddle mounted on the movable wheel frame. The saddle has an arc-shaped bearing surface for supporting the equipment to be installed. The arc-shaped bearing surface of the saddle can form a large surface contact with the equipment to be installed, resulting in more stable support.

[0011] Preferably, the saddle includes a base plate for connection with the movable wheel frame, stiffening ribs vertically arranged on the base plate, and an arc-shaped pad at the top of the stiffening ribs, the upper surface of which forms the arc-shaped bearing surface. The stiffening ribs provide vertical support, while the base plate and the arc-shaped pad form a stable connection and bearing interface. Compared to a solid structure, this design reduces the weight of the saddle while ensuring load-bearing capacity, making it easier to handle and install.

[0012] Preferably, the movable support device has at least two types of saddles, in which the outer side of the stiffening plate of the first type of saddle is perpendicular to the base plate, and the outer side of the second type of saddle is inclined relative to the base plate.

[0013] Preferably, the saddle also includes a stainless steel pad that covers the upper surface of the curved pad. Adding a stainless steel pad provides a smooth, wear-resistant, and clean load-bearing surface, protecting the outer surface of the equipment to be installed from scratches or contamination.

[0014] Preferably, the movable wheel frame is a tank wheel assembly.

[0015] Preferably, the track comprises two parallel channel steel rails.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0017] This utility model discloses a kit for installing equipment inside a horizontal circular container. Through a stable track system and a movable support device, the equipment is kept in a controlled state during the installation process. The equipment to be installed only contacts the saddle and has no contact with the inner wall of the container, effectively avoiding collisions and scratches. The movable support device moves along a predetermined trajectory, eliminating the risk of shaking or tipping of the equipment to be installed, effectively protecting the equipment and the inner wall of the container, and ensuring the quality of equipment installation.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the implementation of this utility model is not limited to the following embodiments, and any modifications and / or alterations made to this utility model will fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0025] In this invention, unless otherwise specified, all parts and percentages are by weight, and the equipment and raw materials used are commercially available or commonly used in the field. Unless otherwise specified, the methods in the following embodiments are conventional methods in the field. Unless otherwise specified, the components or equipment in the following embodiments are general standard parts or components known to those skilled in the art, and their structures and principles can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.

[0026] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following detailed description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate explanation and provide a comprehensive understanding of the embodiments of the present invention. However, one or more embodiments may be practiced by those skilled in the art without these specific details.

[0027] An embodiment of this utility model discloses a kit for installing equipment inside a horizontal circular container. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the device is a detachable and reusable tooling, including a track 10, multiple support members 30, and multiple movable support devices 40.

[0028] The track 10 includes two parallel channel steel rails 11, which are laid on the inner bottom of the horizontal circular container 100. The length of the track 10 is greater than the length of the container 100, so that it can extend integrally from one end opening of the horizontal circular container 100 to the outside of the container, thereby forming a continuous and uninterrupted movement path from the outside to a designated position inside.

[0029] It should be noted that the inner wall of the horizontal circular container 100 is fixedly provided with multiple reinforcing rings 20, which are spaced apart along the length of the track 10, and the number is determined according to the length of the container and the weight of the equipment. The outer wall of each reinforcing ring 20 is machined into an arc shape that matches the curvature of the inner wall of the horizontal circular container 100 so that it can fit tightly against the inner wall of the container. The reinforcing rings 20 can provide lateral stability and support for the track and evenly transmit the force borne by the track to the horizontal circular container 100.

[0030] The support member 30 is used to fix the reinforcing ring 20 and the track 10. Specifically, it is an angle steel or steel plate that is welded or bolted together, and is used to firmly fix the track 10 to the reinforcing ring 20.

[0031] Multiple mobile support devices 40 are provided, each supporting different parts of the equipment 200 to be installed. Each mobile support device 40 includes a mobile wheel frame 41 and a saddle 42 mounted on the mobile wheel frame 41. Specifically, the mobile wheel frame 41 is a heavy-duty transport tank wheel assembly with high load-bearing capacity and multiple rollers to ensure smooth movement on the channel steel rail 11 even under heavy loads. The transport tank wheel assembly is also known as a ground tank or transport mini-tank; this is existing technology, and its specific structure will not be described in detail.

[0032] The saddle 42 includes a base plate 421 for connecting the movable wheel frame 41. Several stiffening plates 422 are vertically welded to the base plate 421, and an arc-shaped pad 423 is fixedly supported at the top of all the stiffening plates 422. The upper surface of the arc-shaped pad 423 forms an arc-shaped bearing surface for conforming to the circular outer surface of the equipment 200 to be installed. A thin stainless steel pad 424 is also welded to the upper surface of the arc-shaped pad 423 to provide a smooth and wear-resistant contact surface. To better adapt to the installation requirements of the equipment, this device is also equipped with at least two types of saddle 42 structures. Figure 3 As shown, a rib plate 422 of a saddle 42 is perpendicular to the base plate 421 and is used to support the smaller diameter portion of the equipment 200 to be installed, such as... Figure 4 As shown, another type of saddle 42 has a stiffener 422 that is inclined relative to the base plate 421, which is used to support the larger diameter part of the equipment 200 to be installed.

[0033] The workflow of this kit is described below.

[0034] Before installation, the track 10, support members 30, and other components are transported to the site. Each support member 30 is fixedly connected to a reinforcing ring 20 located on the inner wall of the horizontal circular container and spaced apart. Then, two channel steel rails 11 are inserted from the opening of the horizontal circular container 100, laid at its bottom, and spot-welded to all the support members 30 to form a stable track frame.

[0035] Multiple mobile support devices 40 are placed on a portion of the track 10 located outside the horizontal circular container (i.e., the outer shell of the circular cold box). Using a workshop overhead crane or hoist, the equipment to be installed 200 (a distillation column in this embodiment) is hoisted and placed on the saddle 42 of the mobile support device 40. After stable placement, the operator, from outside the container, uses a pushing or pulling method to slide the mobile support device 40 carrying the equipment to be installed 200 along the track 10 into the interior of the horizontal circular container 100 until it reaches the predetermined installation position. Throughout the process, the equipment to be installed 200 moves under the precise guidance of the track 10, maintaining a safe distance from the inner wall of the horizontal circular container 100. After the equipment to be installed 200 reaches the designated position, final alignment, leveling, and fixing are performed. After the equipment is securely installed, the mobile support device 40 is removed from the container, and the track 10, support member 30, and reinforcing ring 20 are disassembled in sequence to complete the entire installation operation. After installation, the entire circular cold box is transported to the project site in a horizontal position for vertical installation and use.

[0036] This invention solves the technical problem of installing equipment inside a horizontal circular container through a reusable kit, and has high safety and practical value.

[0037] This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this utility model. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
