Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some preferred embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of this utility model.

[0021] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-3 This utility model provides the following technical solution: a large tank insulation layer installation device, including a flatbed trolley 1 with universal wheels 11 at the bottom; a square column 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the flatbed trolley 1, and a bottom crossbeam 13 is connected to one side of the column; the universal wheels 11 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the bottom crossbeam 13; a sleeve 21 is fixedly connected to one end of the top crossbeam 2, and the sleeve 21 is slidably fitted onto the square column 12; a set of vertically spaced and evenly distributed insertion holes 14 are provided on the top of the square column 12, and pin holes 22 are provided on the sleeve 21 for... A pin 23 passes through the insertion hole 14 and the pin hole 22 to connect the sleeve 21 to the square column 12; a ladder 3 is connected to the end of the top crossbeam 2; a first sliding sleeve 4 is fitted on the top crossbeam 2, and its lower end is connected to a first arc frame 5; multiple evenly distributed round tubes 51 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the first arc frame 5, and magnetic suction rods 52 are inserted into the round tubes 51 for detachable connection between the magnetic suction rods 52 and the round tubes 51; the end of the magnetic suction rod 52 is provided with a gripping component for gripping the heat insulation pad 8.

[0022] In use, using a flatbed cart 1 with casters 11, the ladder 3 and square column 12 are positioned on both sides of the tank 7 where the insulation layer is to be installed. The insulation pad 8 is first connected to the gripping component, so that the first arc frame 5 and the second arc frame 61 respectively grip the insulation pad 8. The magnetic rod 8 is magnetic, and the insulation pad 8 will not fall off due to the magnetic attraction between the magnetic rod 52 and the round tube 51. Then, personnel can safely and conveniently reach the top of the tank 7 via the ladder 3. First, apply adhesive to the top of the tank 7, then grip the first arc frame 5, and slide the insulation pad 8 to the top of the tank 7 through the first sliding sleeve 4. The insulation pad 8 is then adhered to the top of the tank 7. At this time, the magnetic rod 52 detaches from the round tube 51 and is then pushed away from the first arc frame 5. After removing the magnetic rod 52 from the insulation pad 8 one by one, the installation of the insulation pad 8 is completed. Finally, the magnetic rods 52 are inserted back into the round tubes 51 one by one to prepare for connecting the next insulation pad 8. With the ladder 3 and the first arc-shaped frame 5 in place, personnel can separate from the insulation pad 8 and climb to the top of the tank 7 without holding the pad, improving safety. During the bonding operation, personnel do not need to stand on top of the tank 7, reducing the risk of accidental falls and ensuring personnel safety. The bottom crossbeam 13 with casters 11 provides additional support to prevent the flatbed trolley 1 from tipping over. A set of insertion holes 14 at the top of the square column 12 engages with the pin holes 22 of the sleeve 21, allowing the height of the top crossbeam 2 to be adjusted to accommodate tanks 7 of different heights, enabling the top crossbeam 2 to span the tank 7. The ladder 3, in conjunction with the square column 12, supports both ends of the top crossbeam 2, ensuring a stable and safe structure during use. Regarding the bonding of the insulation pads 8 in the middle of the tank 7, since they are at the height of a standing person, they can be directly bonded to the side of the tank 7 by a person holding the insulation pads 8, ensuring safety. After one set of insulation pads 8 is bonded, the flatbed cart 1 is moved along the axis of the tank 7 to the next position, and the above steps are repeated to install the next set of insulation pads 8. When all the insulation pads 8 on one side of the tank 7 are installed, the flatbed cart 1 is moved so that the square column 12 and the ladder 3 are swapped, and the insulation pads 8 on the other side are installed, until the insulation pads 8 on both sides of the tank 7 are installed. As for the installation of the insulation pads 8 on the end face of the tank 7, since it does not involve a person standing on the arc top of the tank 7, the insulation pads 8 can be directly held and installed, ensuring safety.

[0023] There are several implementations of the gripping component, which can be selected according to needs. The first implementation includes a square plate 53 fixed to the end of the magnetic rod 52. The end of the square plate 53 is provided with pressure-sensitive adhesive 55, used to grip the insulation pad 8 when the pressure-sensitive adhesive 55 adheres to it. Separation is achieved by tearing off the pressure-sensitive adhesive 55, thus detaching the insulation pad 8 from the gripping component. The second implementation includes a suction cup 56 fixed to the end of the magnetic rod 52, used to grip the insulation pad 8 when the suction cup 56 is attracted to it. Separation is achieved by direct removal; however, the outer surface of the insulation pad 8 needs to be flat and smooth. This embodiment uses an insulation pad 8 with a protective film on the outside, and uses the second type of gripping component with a suction cup 56.

[0024] The advantage of this embodiment is that the main body of the device is movable, which makes it convenient for personnel to climb to the top of the tank 7 and to easily install the heat insulation pad 8 on the top of the tank 7, thereby improving work efficiency and safety.

[0025] Example 2, please refer to Figure 1-6 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that it further includes a second sliding sleeve 6 fitted onto the bottom crossbeam 13, with its upper end connected to a second arc-shaped frame 61; multiple evenly distributed circular tubes 51 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the second arc-shaped frame 61, and magnetic suction rods 52 are inserted into the circular tubes 51 for detachable connection between the magnetic suction rods 52 and the circular tubes 51; the end of the magnetic suction rod 52 is provided with a gripping component for gripping the insulation pad 8. Regarding the gripping component of the second arc-shaped frame 61 on the bottom crossbeam 13, this embodiment uses a gripping component comprising a square plate 53 fixedly connected to the end of the magnetic suction rod 52, and a densely distributed array of needles 54 fixedly connected to the end of the square plate 53 for gripping the insulation pad 8 when the needles 54 are inserted. At this time, the needles 54 connect to the insulation pad 8 through friction. Due to the large number of needles 54, sufficient friction can be provided, and the insulation pad 8 can be directly pulled out when separated from the gripping component.

[0026] As can be seen, due to the limited space at the bottom of the tank 7, it is inconvenient to operate the heat-insulating pad 8 by hand. Therefore, this embodiment designs an auxiliary device for bonding the heat-insulating pad 8 at the bottom of the tank 7. In use, the heat-insulating pad 8 is first connected to the gripping component, so that the second arc-shaped frame 61 grips the heat-insulating pad 8. The heat-insulating pad 8 will not fall off due to the magnetic attraction between the magnetic rod 52 and the round tube 51. First, apply glue to the bottom of the tank 7, and then push the second arc-shaped frame 61 to slide the heat-insulating pad 8 to the bottom of the tank 7 through the second sliding sleeve 6, thus bonding the heat-insulating pad 8 to the bottom of the tank 7. Then push away the second arc-shaped frame 61. At this time, the needle 54 can be directly detached from the heat-insulating pad 8. Most of the magnetic rods 52 are still retained in the round tube 51. After the individual detached magnetic rods 52 are removed from the heat-insulating pad 8, the installation of the heat-insulating pad 8 is completed. Finally, insert the magnetic rod 52 back into the round tube 51 to prepare for connecting the next insulation pad 8.

[0027] This embodiment makes it easier to install the insulation pad 8 at the bottom of the tank 7.

[0028] To facilitate adjustment of the angle of the insulation pad 8 to fit the shape of the tank 7, support plates 57 are fixedly connected to the outer sides of both the first arc-shaped frame 5 and the second arc-shaped frame 61. Hinge seats 62 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the first sliding sleeve 4 and the second sliding sleeve 6. Both the support plates 57 and the hinge seats 62 have corresponding hinge holes. Bolt assemblies 63 pass through a pair of hinge holes to hinge the support plates 57 and the hinge seats 62. After rotating the first arc-shaped frame 5 and the second arc-shaped frame 61 to their positions, the bolt assemblies 63 are tightened to secure them, completing the angle adjustment.

[0029] For easy storage or transfer, the top crossbeam 2 is provided with a hook 24 at its end for attaching the ladder 3. Therefore, the ladder 3 is detachable, facilitating the transfer of the flatbed trolley 1.

[0030] For easy storage or transfer, the side wall of the flatbed trolley 1 is provided with a through square hole 15, and the bottom crossbeam 13 is inserted into the square hole 15. Therefore, transferring the flatbed trolley 1 is more convenient after the bottom crossbeam 13 is retracted.

[0031] The parts of this utility model not described in detail are prior art; for those skilled in the art, the technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features does not contradict each other, it should be considered within the scope of this specification. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
