Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of oil drum testing technology, and relates to a testing device for oil drums. Background Technology

[0002] Engine oil, as the core component of engine lubricant, plays a vital role. It not only effectively lubricates and reduces wear between internal engine components, but also assists the cooling system, helping to lower engine temperature and ensure optimal operation. Furthermore, engine oil has a leak-proof function, effectively preventing oil leakage and protecting the engine's normal operation. It also resists oxidation and corrosion, extending engine life, and provides excellent shock absorption and cushioning during operation, resulting in a smoother driving experience. Engine oil containers are specifically designed to hold engine oil, aiming to safely and conveniently store and transport this crucial lubricating fluid.

[0003] The traditional method for detecting leaks in engine oil containers involves immersing the container in water and observing for bubbles to determine if a leak has occurred, followed by visual inspection. While this method is simple and easy to implement, visual inspection introduces errors, and these operations require manual labor, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a detection device for engine oil containers to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a detection device for oil drums. The technical problem this invention aims to solve is: how to detect whether an oil drum is leaking and perform the detection by clamping and rotating it.

[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] An inspection device for an oil drum includes an inspection platform with an oil drum positioned above it. One end of the top of the inspection platform is provided with a water injection mechanism for injecting water into the oil drum, and the other end of the top of the inspection platform is provided with a clamping mechanism for clamping the oil drum and rotating it.

[0007] The water injection mechanism includes a mounting plate fixed to one end of the top of the testing platform. A rotary sealing cover is rotatably connected to one end of the mounting plate. The inner wall of the rotary sealing cover has a threaded groove that matches the threaded opening of the oil drum. Both ends of the mounting plate and the rotary sealing cover have communicating holes. A water storage tank is located at the top of the testing platform near the mounting plate. A water pump is installed at one end of the water storage tank. A connecting hose is connected to the outlet of the water storage tank, and the connecting hose passes through a hole located inside the oil drum. A conduit is connected to the inlet of the water pump, and the other end of the conduit communicates with the inside of the water storage tank. A sealing ring is provided at the contact point between the connecting hose and the holes at both ends of the mounting plate and the rotary sealing cover. A control valve is provided at the end of the connecting hose away from the oil drum.

[0008] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the oil drum is fitted with the rotating sealing cap and pre-fixed. Then, water is injected into the inside of the oil drum by a water pump. Due to the gravity of the water itself, it can be observed whether the outer wall of the oil drum is leaking.

[0009] The top of the water storage tank is equipped with a water inlet that communicates with its interior.

[0010] The clamping mechanism includes a fixed plate, one end of which is rotatably connected to a rotating rod. A rotating plate is fixed to the outer wall of the rotating rod near the mounting plate. Mounting blocks are fixed to both sides of one end of the rotating plate. Threaded holes are opened on both sides of the two mounting blocks, and a matching threaded rod is provided inside the threaded hole. A clamping plate is rotatably connected to the side of the two threaded rods that are close to each other.

[0011] Two guide rods are fixed to the side of each of the two clamping plates that are far apart from each other, and slots for the guide rods to pass through are opened on both sides of the two mounting blocks;

[0012] A geared motor is installed at the other end of the fixed plate, and the output shaft of the geared motor is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod;

[0013] Using the above structure, the outer wall of the other end of the oil drum is fixed by two clamping plates. Then, the rotating rod is slowly rotated by a reduction motor, which will cause the oil drum to rotate. Then, the gravity of the water is used to detect and observe whether there is water leakage on the outer wall of the oil drum.

[0014] The top of the testing platform is provided with a mounting groove. The inner walls of the mounting groove are rotatably connected to two ends of a lead screw. The outer wall of the lead screw is provided with a matching sliding block, and the outer wall of the sliding block is adapted to the inner wall of the mounting groove. The top of the sliding block is fixed to the bottom of the fixing plate. A drive motor is installed at one end of the testing platform, and the output shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw.

[0015] An L-shaped mounting plate is fixed to one side of the top of the detection platform. A mounting base is fixed to the top of the inner wall of the L-shaped mounting plate. A camera is installed at the bottom of the mounting base. The camera transmits the captured images to an external image processing device, and the processing software analyzes the outer wall of the oil drum.

[0016] With the above structure, the camera can capture images of the outer wall of the oil tank, and then the image processing software can be used to further analyze whether there is any leakage on the outer wall of the oil tank.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the detection device for oil drums of this utility model has the following advantages:

[0018] 1. In this utility model, due to the adoption of a water injection mechanism and a clamping mechanism, when the oil drum is fixed in the rotating sealing cover, water is injected into the inside of the oil drum by a water pump. Then, the rotating plate is driven to rotate by a reduction motor, which in turn drives the oil drum to rotate slowly. Then, in conjunction with a camera, it is observed whether there is water leakage on the outer wall of the oil drum. This achieves the effect of efficiently detecting whether the oil drum is leaking, saving the time of manual inspection, reducing human error, and improving the consistency and reliability of the inspection.

The inner wall of the rotating sealing cover 204 has a threaded groove 205, which is adapted to the threaded opening of the oil drum 6. The mounting plate 4 and the rotating sealing cover 204... Both ends of the sealing cap 204 have communicating holes. A water tank 2 is located at the top of the testing platform 1, near the mounting plate 4. A water pump 201 is installed at one end of the water tank 2. A connecting hose 203 is connected to the outlet of the water tank 2, and the connecting hose 203 passes through a hole inside the oil drum 6. A conduit is connected to the inlet of the water pump 201, and the other end of the conduit communicates with the interior of the water tank 2. Sealing rings are provided at the contact points between the connecting hose 203 and the holes at both ends of the mounting plate 4 and the rotating sealing cap 204. A control valve 202 is located at the end of the connecting hose 203 furthest from the oil drum 6. A water inlet communicating with the interior of the water tank 2 is located at the top. The clamping mechanism includes a fixed plate 5. A rotating rod 503 is rotatably connected to one end of the fixed plate 5. A rotating plate 501 is fixed to the outer wall of the end of the rotating rod 503 near the mounting plate 4. Mounting blocks 504 are fixed to both sides of one end of the rotating plate 501. Threaded holes are provided on both sides of the two mounting blocks 504, and a matching threaded rod 505 is provided inside the threaded holes. A clamping plate 506 is rotatably connected to the side of the two threaded rods 505 that is close to each other. Two guide rods 507 are fixed to the side of the two clamping plates 506 that is far from each other, and slots for the guide rods 507 to pass through are provided on both sides of the two mounting blocks 504. A reduction motor 502 is installed at the other end of the fixed plate 5. The output shaft of the reduction motor 502 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod 503. The top of the testing platform 1 has a mounting groove 101. A lead screw 508 is rotatably connected to both ends of the inner wall of the mounting groove 101. A matching sliding block 509 is provided on the outer wall of the lead screw 508, and the outer wall of the sliding block 509 is adapted to the inner wall of the mounting groove 101. The top of the sliding block 509 is fixed to the bottom of the fixing plate 5. A drive motor 510 is installed at one end of the testing platform 1, and the output shaft of the drive motor 510 is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 508. An L-shaped mounting plate 3 is fixed to one side of the top of the testing platform 1. A mounting base 301 is fixed to the top of the inner wall of the L-shaped mounting plate 3. A camera 302 is installed at the bottom of the mounting base 301, and the camera 302 transmits the captured images to an external image processing device, which then analyzes the outer wall of the oil drum 6 using processing software.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, the controller first controls the drive motor 510 to run, which then drives the lead screw 508 to rotate. The lead screw 508 drives the sliding block 509 to move on the outer wall of the lead screw 508, and also drives the fixing plate 5 to move away from the mounting plate 4. Then, one end of the oil tank 6 to be monitored is threaded into the threaded groove 205. At this time, the connecting hose 203 is located inside the oil tank 6. Then, the lead screw 508 drives the sliding block... 509 moves closer to the mounting plate 4 and the fixing plate 5 moves closer to one end of the oil can 6. When the rotating plate 501 contacts one end of the oil can 6, the two threaded rods 505 are rotated, causing the two clamping plates 506 to move closer to each other. The clamping plates 506 will drive the guide rod 507 to move, and the guide rod 507 will play a stabilizing role in the movement of the clamping plates 506. When the two clamping plates 506 contact the outer walls of both sides of the oil can 6, the two clamping plates 506 will clamp the other end of the oil can 6. The system is held in place, and then the control valve 202 is opened. By starting the water pump 201, the water pump 201 will draw water from the water storage tank 2 and deliver it to the oil drum 6 through the connecting hose 203. When the oil drum 6 is filled with a certain amount of water, the water pump 201 is stopped and the control valve 202 is closed to prevent the water inside the oil drum 6 from flowing back. Then, the camera 302 is activated to observe the outer wall of the oil drum 6 and transmit the image to an external display. Then, the image processing software is used to analyze whether the outer wall of the oil drum 6 is damaged. Then, the reduction motor 502 is run, which will drive the rotating rod 503 to rotate slowly and drive the rotating plate 501 to rotate. The rotating plate 501 will drive the oil drum 6 to rotate, and the oil drum 6 will drive the rotating sealing cover 204 to rotate. Since there is water inside the oil drum 6, the water has a certain weight. When the oil drum 6 is rotating, the camera 302 is used to observe whether there is water leakage on the outer wall of the oil drum 6, thus achieving the effect of detecting the oil drum 6.
