Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas cylinder handling technology, specifically a gas cylinder handling device. Background Technology
[0002] Industrial gas cylinders are containers used for storing and transporting compressed gases or liquids. They can be classified according to the gas they store, such as oxygen cylinders and nitrogen cylinders. Oxygen cylinders are mainly used in metal cutting, welding and other processes, as well as in the medical field for patient treatment. Industrial gas cylinders are usually made of high-strength alloys and other materials, which have good pressure resistance. This results in the cylinders being quite heavy, making transportation difficult. Therefore, gas cylinder handling equipment is needed to move the cylinders.
[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN221718608U discloses a trolley for facilitating the transport of oxygen cylinders. By pulling a mounting rod, the rod rotates on the inner wall of a mounting frame. Simultaneously, the mounting rod, via a positioning block, drives a rotating rod, which in turn pulls a telescopic rod, causing the telescopic rod to unfold and support the mounting rod. This unfolding of the mounting rod allows the casters and tires to be on the same horizontal plane, making the device more convenient to use. Furthermore, the mounting rod can be folded for easy storage after use. This solves the problem that existing oxygen cylinder trolleys cannot be folded, resulting in a large footprint and poor practicality when storage is needed. However, when transporting gas cylinders, besides handling individual cylinders, it is sometimes necessary to transport large batches. Traditional transport devices can only handle one or a few small batches of cylinders, affecting the efficiency of transporting large batches. Moreover, using two different transport devices would impact cost and floor space, still resulting in significant resource waste. Utility Model Content

[0025] The embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this disclosure. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this disclosure from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this disclosure, and not all of them. This disclosure can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this disclosure. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments in this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
[0027] Example 1
[0028] Reference Figures 1-3 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model; Figure 2 This is another schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model; Figure 3 This is another structural schematic diagram of the present utility model. A gas tank transport device includes: a frame assembly 1 including a frame body 11, a connecting shaft 12, a rolling shaft 13, and a bottom support 14. There are two frame bodies 11. The two ends of the connecting shaft 12 are respectively connected to one side of the two frame bodies 11. The rolling shaft 13 is sleeved on the circumferential side of the connecting shaft 12 and rotates around the central axis of the connecting shaft 12. The bottom support 14 is connected to the end of the frame body 11 and is detachably connected to the frame body 11. At least two frame assemblies 1 are connected end to end to form a whole.
[0029] Specifically, by cooperating with two frame bodies 11, multiple rolling shafts 13 and bottom support 14, the frame assembly 1 can form a transport vehicle with an open end. After the gas tank is placed on the frame assembly 1, it can support and limit the gas tank.
[0030] Specifically, by setting a rolling shaft 13 that can rotate around the central axis of the connecting shaft 12, after the gas canister is placed on the frame assembly 1, when the frame assembly 1 is in a horizontal state, the gas canister can be transported along the arrangement direction of the rolling shaft 13. Furthermore, under the action of the rotation of the rolling shaft 13, the friction force on the gas canister is rolling friction, which reduces the difficulty of transport.
[0031] This gas cylinder handling device, by setting up two frame bodies 11 connected by a connecting shaft 12 and a rolling shaft 13, allows for the handling of small quantities of gas cylinders by supporting the bottom of the cylinders with a bottom support 14. When handling large quantities of gas cylinders, multiple gas cylinder handling devices can be connected end to end to form a conveyor line, and the cylinders can be quickly transported by rolling on the rolling shaft 13. This improves handling efficiency and avoids the situation where traditional gas cylinder handling devices cannot be used for handling large quantities and small quantities of gas cylinders at the same time, which would require the configuration of multiple handling devices, affecting costs and floor space, and wasting a lot of resources.
[0032] The frame assembly 1 also includes a rolling element 15, which is disposed on one side of the frame body 11.
[0033] There are two rolling elements 15, and the two rolling elements 15 are fixedly connected by a rod. This allows the other rolling element 15 to be restricted in the same way when the rod or the rotation of one rolling element 15 is restricted. This ensures that when the frame body 11 is placed to transport multiple gas tanks, the rolling elements 15 and the frame body 11 can be locked together, thereby preventing the frame assembly 1 from swaying due to the large weight of the gas tanks and ensuring the stability of the transport.
[0034] Specifically, conventional locking methods can be used, such as inserting a pin or using a vehicle lock to lock the rolling element 15 to the frame body 11.
[0035] The frame assembly 1 also includes handles 16. Two handles 16 are connected to one end of the frame body 11, so that when transporting a single or a small number of gas canisters, after the frame assembly 1 has finished loading the gas canisters, the handles 16 can be manually pulled or pushed to drive the gas canister transport device to move and transport the gas canisters.
[0036] The handle 16 includes a handle portion 161 and an overlapping portion 162. The handle portion 161 is connected to the end of the frame body 11, and a person can hold this part to drive the gas tank transport device to move. The overlapping portion 162 is connected to the end of the handle portion 161 away from the frame body 11, and the distance between the two overlapping portions 162 is less than the length of the rolling shaft 13. This allows the gas tank transport device to transport multiple gas tanks, and when at least two gas tank transport devices are connected end to end, the overlapping portion 162 of one gas tank transport device can overlap the connecting shaft 12 of the other gas tank transport device at the end away from the handle 16, thereby connecting the two gas tank transport devices into one unit and ensuring the connection quality.
[0037] Furthermore, the length of the overlapping portion 162 is the same as the length of the handlebar portion 161 to the ground, so that when the frame body 11 is laid flat, the end of the overlapping portion 162 away from the handlebar portion 161 can just contact the ground, thereby cooperating with the rolling element 15 to keep the frame body 11 in a horizontal state.
[0038] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the bottom support structure in Embodiment 1 of this utility model. A hook 111 is provided at the end of a frame body 11 away from the handle 16. The bottom support 14 is a flexible component, and one end is detachably connected to the hook 111, while the other end is connected to another frame body 11. This allows the bottom of the gas tank to be supported by connecting the bottom support 14 to the hook 111, thereby enabling the gas tank to be transported.
[0039] Specifically, the flexible support component 14 can be made of chains, steel strands, or other materials with sufficient strength.
[0040] Furthermore, the end of the frame assembly 1 with the handle 16 can be placed on a higher platform, thereby tilting the frame assembly 1 so that workers at a higher position can pull the gas cylinder up to the higher platform along the frame assembly 1, for example, to move the gas cylinder into the cargo compartment of a truck.
[0041] A gas canister handling device further includes a limiting component 2, which is connected to the frame body 11 and limits the gas canister being handled. The limiting direction of the limiting component 2 is opposite to the direction in which the rolling shaft 13 supports the gas canister and applies pressure to the gas canister, thereby ensuring that no collisions or other situations occur during the handling of a small number of gas canisters.
[0042] The limiting component 2 includes a connecting rod 21, a connecting plate 22, and a limiting rod 23. There are two connecting rods 21, which are connected to two vehicle frame bodies 11 respectively by welding. The connecting plate 22 is connected to the two connecting rods 21, and the limiting rod 23 is connected to the connecting plate 22. The limiting rod 23 passes through the connecting plate 22 and the length of the passage can be adjusted.
[0043] Specifically, the connecting plate 22 and the limiting rod 23 are connected by threads, and the length of the limiting rod 23 passing through the connecting plate 22 can be changed by rotation, thereby applying pressure and limiting the gas cylinders of different sizes, ensuring the adaptability of the gas cylinder handling device to gas cylinders of various sizes.
[0044] The connecting plate 22 is detachably connected to the connecting rod 21. The limiting component 2 also includes a fixing member 24, which is connected to one end of the connecting rod 21 and limits the connecting plate 22 along the axial direction of the connecting rod 21.
[0045] Example 2
[0046] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the support structure in Embodiment 2 of this utility model. The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is that the end of the frame body 11 is provided with a connecting groove 112, the support 14 is plate-shaped, and one end of the support 14 is connected to a slot 142 that is adapted to the connecting groove 112. The slot 142 and the connecting groove 112 are detachably connected, so that when transporting a small batch of gas canisters, the gas canister transport device can be erected first, and then the support 14 can be inserted into the bottom of the gas canister. With the help of the limiting component 2, the gas canister can be fixed on the frame assembly 1. Then, the frame assembly 1 can be pried directly to make the transport device tilted so that it can be transported.
[0047] Furthermore, when a large number of gas cylinders need to be transported, the bottom support 14 can be removed along the connecting groove 112, so as not to affect the large-scale transportation of gas cylinders.
