Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a tank container for a coastal defense container system, specifically a tank container for a coastal defense container system with a bottom valve end switch. Background Technology

[0002] Existing coastal defense container systems, specifically tank containers, include a container frame, a tank housed within the container frame, and a piping system mounted on the tank. The piping system is typically located at the end of the tank to facilitate the opening and closing of the tank's bottom valve. The piping system includes a tank bottom valve, a high-level controller, inlet / outlet valves, and inlet / outlet connectors. One end of the high-level controller is connected to the tank bottom valve via a pipe, and the other end is connected to the inlet / outlet valve via a pipe. The inlet / outlet connector is mounted on the inlet / outlet valve. The tank bottom valve is equipped with a valve control lever, one end of which forms a bent rotating rod. Rotating the lever counterclockwise opens the tank bottom valve, and rotating it clockwise closes it. The container frame has a bottom frame, a top frame, and columns connecting the bottom and top frames. The aforementioned existing coastal defense container system typically operates by loading liquid cargo at one port, sealing it, and then transporting it to another destination port for unloading. During transportation, the volume of the material inside the tank remains unchanged, and anti-surge baffles are usually not installed inside the tank.

[0003] The aforementioned existing marine defense container system, consisting of tank containers, is primarily used for loading oil and transporting it by ship, providing uninterrupted oil supply at sea. The high-level controller in the pipeline system is quite long. If installed at the end of the tank, it affects the tank's length and volume given a fixed total length of the tank container (i.e., the container frame). If installed on the side of the tank, when multiple tank containers are parked side-by-side, personnel cannot access the bottom valve to operate it.

[0004] Furthermore, the oil is constantly decreasing inside the tank. Under the influence of ocean waves, the liquid forms irregular turbulent shock waves inside the tank. With the tank container structure using the above-mentioned existing technology, the tank body is prone to cracking and damage, and the structural strength of the container frame is low, making it easy to be damaged. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a tank container for a coastal defense container system with a bottom valve end switch that does not affect the tank length and volume due to the setting of the pipeline system when the total length of the container frame is a fixed value.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model discloses a tank container with a bottom valve end-switch type for coastal defense, comprising a container frame, a tank housed within the container frame, and a piping system mounted on the tank. The piping system includes a bottom valve, a high-level controller, inlet / outlet valves, and inlet / outlet connectors. The bottom valve is equipped with a valve switch lever, one end of which forms a bent rotating rod. Rotating the lever counterclockwise opens the bottom valve, and rotating it clockwise closes it. The container frame has a bottom frame, a top frame, and a column connecting the bottom and top frames. The piping system is located within the container. On the side of the tank within the frame, one end of the valve switch lever is fixedly connected to a second rotating rod forming a Y-shape with the first rotating rod. The frame also includes a remote switch assembly at the end of the tank to open and close the bottom valve. This remote switch assembly includes a reversing pulley fixed to the inner wall of the bottom frame, and two pull ropes passing around the reversing pulley. One end of each pull rope is connected to the ends of the first and second rotating rods, respectively, and the other end is connected to pull rings located at the end of the tank. When pull rope one is pulled, the first rotating rod rotates counterclockwise to open the bottom valve; when pull rope two is pulled, the second rotating rod rotates clockwise to close the bottom valve.

[0007] The tank container of the marine defense container system with the above-mentioned bottom valve end switch has a pipeline system located on the side of the tank within the container frame. Therefore, the length and volume of the tank will not be affected by the pipeline system. Since the opening and closing operation of the bottom valve can be completed at the end of the tank through the directional pulley, pull rope one and pull rope two, and pull ring one and pull ring two located at the end of the tank, the problem of personnel on the side not being able to approach and operate when multiple tank containers are parked side by side is avoided.

[0008] As an improvement to this utility model, a reinforcing rib is fixed between the bottom frame and the adjacent column. By adopting the above technical features, the strength of the frame can be significantly improved, and the container frame is less prone to damage.

[0009] Furthermore, the front of the container frame is equipped with a ladder, and a grid-like safety walkway is installed between the top edges of the container frame. These technical features make loading and unloading the container frame more convenient and facilitate the maintenance of the safety accessories on the top of the tank.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, anti-wave baffles are also installed at intervals inside the tank.

[0011] Furthermore, the wave-damping baffle is generally spherical in shape, with a spherical surface and a connected annular welded part, and the wave-damping baffle is welded to the inner wall of the tank with its annular welded part.

[0012] By installing anti-surge baffles at intervals inside the tank, the impact of the liquid inside the tank on the inner wall of the tank can be effectively reduced. The anti-surge baffles adopt a spherical structure, and their curved surfaces can flexibly unload the impact force of the turbulent impact formed by the liquid at different liquid levels, thereby effectively reducing the destructive force and avoiding the tank from cracking and damage.

The piping system includes a bottom valve 31, a high-level controller 32, inlet / outlet valves 33, and inlet / outlet connectors 34. One end of the high-level controller is connected to the bottom valve via a pipe, and the other end is connected to the inlet / outlet valve via a pipe. The inlet / outlet connector is mounted on the inlet / outlet valve. The bottom valve 31 is equipped with a valve switch lever 311, one end of which forms a bent rotating rod 312. Rotating the lever counterclockwise opens the bottom valve, and rotating it clockwise closes it. The container frame 10 has a bottom frame 11, a top frame 12, and columns connecting the bottom and top frames. 13, characterized in that: the pipeline system 30 is arranged on the side of the tank body inside the container frame; one end of the valve switch lever 311 is also fixedly connected to a second lever 313 forming a Y-shaped structure with the first lever 312; and a remote switch assembly is also included at the end of the tank body to open and close the bottom valve. This remote switch assembly includes a reversing pulley 41 fixed to the inner wall of the bottom frame 11, and pull ropes 42 and 43 wrapped around the reversing pulley. One end of pull ropes 41 and 43 is connected to the ends of the first and second levers, respectively, and the other end is connected to pull rings 44 and 45 located at the end of the tank body, respectively. When pull rope 42 is pulled, the first lever 312 rotates counterclockwise to open the bottom valve; when pull rope 43 is pulled, the second lever 313 rotates clockwise to close the bottom valve. A reinforcing rib 14 is fixed between the bottom frame 11 and the adjacent column 13.
