Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of oil containment booms, specifically to an oil containment boom connection leak-proof device. Background Technology
[0002] In an era of increasingly frequent global oil extraction and transportation, marine oil spills occur frequently. Crude oil leaks damage the ecological environment of the surrounding waters, and can cause devastating harm to affected marine ecosystems. Oil booms are effective means of containing and controlling leaked crude oil at sea. An oil boom is a device that floats stably on the water surface to prevent the spread of oil spills, reduce the spill area, remove oil and floating debris, and protect the aquatic environment.
[0003] When deploying oil booms, the connection between two oil booms is usually achieved by two stainless steel clamps. The two oil booms are joined together by their ends and secured with multiple bolts through the clamps. Due to the environment and the large size and weight of the oil booms, the actual operation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, the connection efficiency is very slow, and it greatly affects the time for launching the oil booms into the water, causing oil spills to spread and making containment and recovery difficult. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a leak-proof device for connecting oil booms.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0006] This utility model discloses an oil boom connection leak-proof device, including a rubber soft plate. Both ends of the rubber soft plate are equipped with positioning plates. A stainless steel tube is welded to the inner side of each positioning plate. Multiple positioning rings are provided on the inner side of each stainless steel tube along the length of the stainless steel tube. The positioning rings between two stainless steel tubes are connected as one unit by U-shaped shackles.
[0007] Each positioning plate is fixed with a clamping plate by positioning bolts, and the clamping plate and the positioning plate form a clamping opening for clamping the end of the oil containment boom.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the positioning plate and the rubber flexible plate are fixed together by a fixing bolt, and both the positioning plate and the rubber flexible plate are provided with through holes for the fixing bolt to pass through.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the rubber soft plate, positioning plate, clamping plate and oil containment belt are provided with through holes for the positioning bolts to pass through, and the outer end of the positioning bolt is provided with a locking cap.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the positioning ring is welded to a stainless steel pipe.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the stainless steel pipe is welded to the positioning plate as a single unit.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the rubber soft sheet is made of a material that is resistant to aging, seawater corrosion, and ultraviolet radiation.
[0013] After adopting the above technical solution, the oil boom connection and leak prevention device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art.
[0014] This type of oil boom connection and leak-proof device has positioning plates installed at both ends of the rubber flexible sheet. Stainless steel pipes are welded to the inner side of each positioning plate, and the positioning rings between the stainless steel pipes are connected as one unit by U-shaped shackles. This provides anti-pull protection for the rubber flexible sheet, preventing it from tearing during the placement of the oil boom. It is also lightweight and quick, solving the problems of previous labor-intensive and time-consuming connections that affected the deployment time. This connection structure improves deployment efficiency. The stainless steel pipes reinforce the positioning plates, preventing deformation, while the rubber flexible sheet seals the connected oil booms, ensuring no gaps exist between the two booms and preventing oil leakage.
