Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of storage containers, and in particular to a vertical fiberglass storage tank. Background Technology

[0002] Vertical fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) storage tanks are storage devices made primarily of FRP and featuring a vertical structure. FRP boasts excellent corrosion resistance, resisting the erosion of various acids, alkalis, and salts, making it ideal for storing corrosive liquids or gases. FRP's density is only about one-quarter that of steel, yet its strength is comparable. This makes vertical FRP storage tanks easier to transport and install, while also reducing foundation requirements.

[0003] The existing Chinese utility model patent with application number CN201520876979.9 relates to a vertical fiberglass storage tank, which includes a fiberglass inner liner, a spiral skeleton and an outer cladding. The spiral skeleton can enhance the strength in the vertical and horizontal directions, thereby reducing the consumption of raw materials, saving processing costs and improving processing efficiency.

[0004] However, in actual use, the above-mentioned device does not have a stable vertical working capability. During the installation process, the bottom support structure has high requirements and is not strong enough to resist external forces. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a vertical fiberglass storage tank that uses a support device to provide stable bottom support, making it easy for the tank to maintain a vertical operating state and improving the vertical stability of the equipment. A protective device increases the friction between the tank bottom and the support device, reducing the impact of the tank's own rotation on the connection and installation during hoisting and installation. A fixing device provides auxiliary connection between the tank and the support device, increasing the tank's resistance to interference from the external environment, thus improving the stability and practicality of the device.

[0006] This utility model discloses a vertical fiberglass storage tank, comprising a support device, an anti-slip device, and a fixing device. The anti-slip device is installed on the support device, and the fixing device is also installed on the support device. The support device provides stable bottom support, making it easy for the tank to maintain a vertical operating state and improving the vertical stability of the equipment. The anti-slip device increases the friction between the bottom of the tank and the support device, reducing the impact of the tank's own rotation on the connection and installation during hoisting and installation. The fixing device provides auxiliary connection between the tank and the support device, increasing the tank's resistance to interference from the external environment and improving the stability and practicality of the device.

[0007] Preferably, the support device includes a tank, a base, side support arms, and positioning rods. Multiple sets of side support arms are evenly arranged on the upper surface of the base, and multiple sets of circular through holes are also evenly arranged on the upper surface of the base. Multiple positioning rods pass through the circular through holes on the base and are inserted below the ground. The lower part of the tank can be placed on the base, and the inner surfaces of the multiple sets of side support arms are close to the sides of the lower part of the tank. The multiple sets of side support arms limit the connection position between the bottom of the tank and the base, preventing the tank from shifting during installation. The multiple sets of positioning rods increase the base's grip, enhance the stability of the base body, and improve the stability and practicality of the device.

[0008] Preferably, it also includes external and internal threads. The circular through hole on the base is provided with an internal thread, and the upper part of the positioning rod is provided with an external thread. The internal threads and internal threads connect multiple sets of positioning rods to the base, reducing the relative displacement between the base and the positioning rods during use, and improving the connection stability and practicality of the device.

[0009] Preferably, the anti-slip device includes a limiting groove, a positioning protrusion, a connecting block, a positioning groove, and an anti-slip pad. A set of limiting grooves is provided on the upper and lower parts of the inner side of the side support arm, and a positioning protrusion is provided in the center of the limiting groove. A positioning groove is provided on the side of the connecting block, allowing the connecting block to be inserted into the limiting groove and the positioning protrusion to be inserted into the positioning groove. An anti-slip pad is connected to the side of the connecting block, and after the connecting block is inserted into the limiting groove, the anti-slip pad can be adjusted to fit tightly against the inner side of the side support arm. The limiting groove, positioning protrusion, connecting block, and positioning groove enable quick installation and positioning of the connecting block, and quick fixation of the anti-slip pad. The anti-slip pad increases the friction between the lower side of the tank and the inner side of the side support arm, ensuring that the bottom of the tank contacts the anti-slip pad during tank hoisting, reducing the tank's natural rotation, facilitating rapid tank installation, and improving the practicality of the device.

[0010] Preferably, it also includes a main support base and a vibration sensor. The main support base is located in the middle of the upper end face of the base, and the vibration sensor is installed in the middle of the upper end face of the main support base. The main support base provides support for the main body of the tank and monitors the vibration intensity of the tank itself, which facilitates maintenance personnel to quickly connect the tank status and improves the practicality of the device.

[0011] Preferably, the fixing device includes an annular sliding groove, sliding plates, fastening bolts, wire rope connecting plates, wire ropes, and drain holes. An annular sliding groove is provided on the upper side of the tank body. Multiple sets of sliding plates are located inside the annular sliding groove and can rotate within it. A wire rope connecting plate is provided in the middle of the outer side of the annular sliding groove. A set of fastening bolts is installed on the left and right sides of the outer side of the annular sliding groove. A set of wire rope connecting plates is welded to the outer surface of the side support arm. The two ends of the wire rope are connected to two sets of wire rope connecting plates aligned vertically. Multiple sets of drain holes are evenly provided at the bottom of the annular sliding groove. These drain holes connect to the annular sliding groove... The bottom of the annular sliding groove is connected. After the main body of the tank is placed on the base, the positions of multiple sets of sliding plates in the annular sliding groove are adjusted to correspond with the positions of multiple sets of side support arms. Then, the fastening bolts are rotated to fix the position of the sliding plates in the annular sliding groove. Then, the two sets of steel wire rope connecting plates aligned at the top and bottom are connected by steel wire ropes to provide auxiliary fixation for the upper part of the tank, reducing the impact of external interference such as strong winds on the stability of the main body of the tank, and facilitating disassembly and transportation. Multiple sets of drainage holes reduce the residual moisture inside the annular sliding groove, reduce the corrosion inside the annular sliding groove, and improve the practicality of the device.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the support device provides stable bottom support, making it easy for the tank to maintain a vertical operating state and improving the vertical stability of the equipment; the protective device increases the friction between the bottom of the tank and the support device, reducing the impact of the tank's own rotation on the connection and installation during hoisting and installation; the fixing device provides auxiliary connection between the tank and the support device, increasing the tank's own resistance to interference from the external environment and improving the stability and practicality of the device.
