Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the technical field of mud tanks, and more specifically, to a mud tank with a floating oil suction device. Background Technology

[0002] In oil extraction, refining, and various industrial sectors involving mud treatment, mud tanks are crucial storage and processing equipment. During mud treatment, oil sludge often floats on the surface of the mud. If this oil sludge is not cleaned up in a timely manner, it will not only pollute the environment but may also affect the performance of the mud and the effectiveness of subsequent treatments.

[0003] Traditional oil suction equipment presents numerous problems when dealing with oil sludge in mud tanks. Some fixed-position oil suction devices cannot adjust to changes in the mud level. When the level rises or falls, the suction port may detach from the oil layer, significantly reducing suction effectiveness and failing to continuously and effectively remove oil sludge. Manually adjusting the position of the oil suction device is not only inefficient but also increases labor costs and operational risks.

[0004] Furthermore, due to the complex environment inside the mud tank, ordinary oil suction devices are difficult to adapt to the characteristics of the mud, such as changes in the viscosity and fluidity of the mud. This further reduces the stability and reliability of oil suction. Therefore, a mud tank with a floating oil suction device is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide a mud tank with a floating oil suction device, which solves the technical problem in the prior art that the fixed-position oil suction device cannot be adjusted according to the changes in the mud level, and the oil suction port may detach from the oil layer when the liquid level rises or falls, resulting in a significant reduction in the oil suction effect.

[0006] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of this disclosure provides a mud tank with a floating oil suction device, comprising:

[0007] The mud tank body and the top cover, wherein the top cover is disposed on the top of the mud tank body and is connected to the interior of the mud tank body;

[0008] A collector and a floating assembly, wherein the collector is disposed within the mud tank body and the floating assembly is disposed on the collector and the mud tank body;

[0009] A switch assembly, the switch assembly being disposed on the top cover;

[0010] The floating assembly includes a pair of columns, which are fixed inside the mud tank body and between the top cover. The collector is slidably connected to the outside of the columns. Floating boxes are fixedly connected to both sides of the collector. A pair of pulleys are provided on the top of the top cover.

[0011] As a further technical solution, the lower end of the floating box is connected to a water inlet pipe, which bypasses the upper end of the pulley. A pair of air pumps are provided on the top of the floating box, and a waste discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the collector. One end of the waste discharge pipe is connected to the outside of the mud tank body.

[0012] As a further technical solution, a horizontal pipe is fixedly connected inside the collector, a flushing water pump is fixed on the outer surface of the mud tank body, a water pipe is connected between the flushing water pump and the horizontal pipe, and several nozzles are provided on the surface of the horizontal pipe.

[0013] As a further technical solution, the switch assembly includes a guide rod, which is fixed to the side surface of the top cover. A top cover is slidably connected to the guide rod, and a telescopic cylinder is provided on one side of the top cover. The output end of the telescopic cylinder is connected to the top cover.

[0014] As a further technical solution, a pair of notches are provided on the surface of the top cover, and the positions of the notches correspond to the positions of the pulleys.

[0015] As a further technical solution, a climbing platform is provided on one side of the mud tank body, and a handle is provided on the top of the mud tank body.

[0016] As a further technical solution, the bottom surface of the collector is an inclined structural surface.

[0017] As a further technical solution, the collector has several side openings around its upper surface.

[0018] As a further technical solution, the pulley surface is a concave structure surface, and the water pipe is recessed within the concave portion of the pulley surface.

[0019] As a further technical solution, several of the climbing platforms are distributed at an upward tilt angle.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed herein are as follows:

[0021] 1. The beneficial effects of the floating component in this disclosure are that the sliding connection design of the column and the collector allows the collector to flexibly adapt to changes in liquid level and always remain at the oil layer position to collect oil sludge. The floating box, air pump and water inlet pipe work together to precisely adjust buoyancy and ensure that the collector floats stably. The inclined bottom surface of the collector facilitates the concentrated discharge of oil, and the side opening increases the collection range and improves the oil suction efficiency.

[0022] 2. In this disclosure, the switch assembly has significant advantages. The guide rod ensures smooth sliding of the top cover and improves the stability of the opening and closing of the top cover. The telescopic cylinder serves as the power source, enabling easy opening and closing of the top cover, which facilitates maintenance and cleaning of the mud tank by the operator. The notch design of the top cover cleverly avoids the pulley, ensuring that the top cover is completely covered, preventing debris from entering the mud tank, and ensuring the normal operation of the equipment.

[0035] like Figures 1-4 As shown, it illustrates a mud tank with a floating oil suction device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, comprising:

[0036] The mud tank body 1 and the top cover 2 are provided on the top of the mud tank body 1 and are connected to the inside of the mud tank body 1.

[0037] Collector 3 and floating component 4, the collector 3 is set inside the mud tank body 1, and the floating component 4 is set on the collector 3 and the mud tank body 1;

[0038] Switch assembly 5 is mounted on top cover 2;

[0039] The floating assembly 4 includes a pair of columns 4-1, which are fixed inside the mud tank body 1 and between the top cover 2. The collector 3 is slidably connected to the outside of the columns 4-1. Floating boxes 4-2 are fixedly connected to both sides of the collector 3. A pair of pulleys 4-3 are provided on the top of the top cover 2. A water inlet pipe 4-9 is connected to the lower end of the floating box 4-2 and passes around the upper end of the pulleys 4-3. A pair of air pumps 4-5 are provided on the top of the floating box 4-2. A waste discharge pipe 4-6 is provided at the bottom of the collector 3, with one end of the waste discharge pipe 4-6 connected to the outside of the mud tank body 1. A horizontal pipe 4-7 is fixedly connected inside the collector 3. A flushing water pump 4-8 is fixed to the outer surface of the mud tank body 1. A water pipe 4-9 is connected between the flushing water pump 4-8 and the horizontal pipe 4-7. Several nozzles 4-10 are provided on the surface of the horizontal pipe 4-7.

[0040] In some examples, to achieve the effect of collecting oil layers in mud tanks by floating, a floating assembly 4 is designed. This assembly includes a pair of columns 4-1 fixed inside the mud tank, and a collector 3 slidingly fitted onto the outside of the columns 4-1. This allows the collector 3 to move up and down along the columns 4-1 to adapt to changes in the liquid level inside the mud tank body 1. Floating boxes 4-2, fixedly connected to both sides of the collector 3, are the key components for achieving the floating function. The floating boxes 4-2 utilize their buoyancy to allow the collector 3 to float on the surface of the liquid in the mud tank. When the liquid level in the tank rises or falls, the collector 3 slides along the columns 4-1 with the floating boxes 4-2, always maintaining a suitable height. To collect the oil layer, a pair of pulleys 4-3 are installed at the top of the top cover 2, which are connected to the lower end of the floating box 4-2 and cooperate with the water inlet pipe 4-9 at the upper end of the pulleys 4-3. The water inlet pipe 4-9 can inject water or drain water into the floating box 4-2 as needed, thereby adjusting the buoyancy of the floating box 4-2 and further precisely controlling the height of the collector 3. A pair of air pumps 4-5 are installed at the top of the floating box 4-2, which can also assist in adjusting the buoyancy by changing the air pressure inside the box. The waste discharge pipe 4-6 is installed at the bottom of the collector 3, one end of which is connected to the outside of the mud tank body 1. When the collector 3 collects the oil layer, the oil layer can be discharged to the outside of the tank through the waste discharge pipe 4-6, realizing the collection and transfer of the oil layer.

[0041] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment proposes a switch assembly 5 including a guide rod 5-1, which is fixed to the side surface of the top cover 2. A top cover 5-2 is slidably connected to the guide rod 5-1. A telescopic cylinder 5-3 is provided on one side of the top cover 2, and the output end of the telescopic cylinder 5-3 is connected to the top cover 5-2.

[0042] In some examples, a switch assembly 5 is designed to facilitate the opening and closing of the top cover 2. This assembly includes a guide rod 5-1 fixed to one side of the top cover 2. The top cover 5-2 is slidably connected to the guide rod 5-1, allowing the top cover 5-2 to move smoothly along the direction of the guide rod 5-1. This ensures the linear movement of the top cover 5-2 during the opening and closing process, avoiding deviation or shaking, and improving the stability and reliability of the top cover 2's opening and closing. A telescopic cylinder 5-3 is provided on one side of the top cover 2, with its output end connected to the top cover 5-2. This cylinder is the power source for the opening and closing action of the top cover 2. When the top cover 2 needs to be opened, the output end of the telescopic cylinder 5-3 extends, pushing the top cover 5-2 to slide along the guide rod 5-1, thereby opening the top cover 2 and exposing the internal space for related operations, such as maintaining, cleaning, or adding materials to the equipment inside the mud tank.

[0043] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, a pair of notches 6 are provided on the surface of the top cover 5-2, and the positions of the notches 6 correspond to the positions of the pulleys 4-3.

[0044] In some examples, by providing a notch 6, the top cover 5-2 avoids the pulley 4-3 when closed, ensuring complete coverage of the opening portion of the top cover 2.

[0045] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, a climbing platform 7 is provided on one side of the mud tank body 1, and a handle 8 is provided on the top of the mud tank body 1.

[0046] In some examples, a climbing platform 7 is provided, which allows access to the top of the mud tank.

[0047] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, the bottom surface of collector 3 is an inclined structural surface.

[0048] In some examples, by using inclined structural surfaces, the collected oil can be directed to the waste discharge pipe and flushed more easily.

[0049] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, the upper surface of the collector 3 has several side openings 9 around its circumference.

[0050] In some examples, multiple side ports 9 are provided so that the oil can flow in at the side ports 9 when the oil content is low, which is convenient.

[0051] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the surface of pulley 4-3 is a concave structure, and water pipe 4-9 is recessed in the concave part of the surface of pulley 4-3.

[0052] In some examples, the concave structural surface allows the water pipes 4-9 to be completely recessed into the interior, preventing them from falling out during movement.

[0053] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, several climbing platforms 7 are distributed at an upward tilt angle.

[0054] In some examples, by using a tilt angle, the body can lean forward during the climb, making it safer.

[0055] In actual use: depending on the mud level, adjust the air-to-water ratio by using the air pump 4-5 or the water inlet pipe 4-9 to adjust the buoyancy of the float box 4-2, so that the collector 3 rises and falls with the liquid level. The side port 9 and the inclined bottom structure on the collector 3 facilitate the collection of oil. The collected oil is discharged through the waste discharge pipe 4-6. If the collector 3 needs to be cleaned, the flushing water pump 4-8 can be started. Water is sprayed from the nozzle 4-10 through the water pipe 4-9 and the horizontal pipe 4-7 for flushing. When maintenance and cleaning are required, the telescopic cylinder 5-3 can be started to control the top cover 5-2 to move and open the top cover 2. Climb to the top of the mud tank through the climbing platform 7 and the handle 8.

Although this disclosure has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this disclosure, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this disclosure.
