Support device for large storage tanks

Abstract

This utility model discloses a support device for large storage tanks, including a base. Two linkage ports are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the base. Two linkage rods are rotatably engaged within the inner walls of each linkage port. Sprockets are fixedly connected to multiple linkage rods, and two synchronous chains are mounted on the multiple sprockets. A load-bearing block is slidably engaged with the inner wall of the base. This utility model, by incorporating components such as load-bearing blocks, force-bearing blocks, synchronous chains, and pushing blocks, enables the storage tank, which stores hazardous chemicals, or is installed in a location prone to collisions such as vehicle movement, to be placed on the load-bearing block. The load-bearing block, under pressure, moves downwards, and through the linkage of the force-bearing block, synchronous chain, and pushing block, drives the protective frame upwards, forming a protective barrier on the outside of the storage tank. This effectively prevents the storage tank from being damaged by external collisions and other accidents, greatly improving the safety of hazardous chemical storage.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tank support technology, specifically a support device for large storage tanks. Background Technology

[0002] The support device for large storage tanks is a component used to support the weight of the large storage tank body and the materials contained therein, and to ensure that the storage tank can be stably placed in a set position. When supporting a horizontal storage tank, the base is usually an arc-shaped support seat, on which the storage tank is placed for support.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent application CN201820793049.0, which discloses a support device for large storage tanks that is easy to disassemble. The device includes two support bases, with a stabilizing rod fixedly connected between them. A connecting frame is provided on the top of each support base, and an arc-shaped connecting plate is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the connecting frame. The inner wall of the arc-shaped connecting plate is fixedly connected to the tank body. This invention, through the coordinated use of the support base, connecting frame, mounting groove, shell, guide rod, guide tube, buffer spring, buffer plate, support plate, connecting plate, transition plate, movable threaded column, threaded rod, first bevel gear, transmission rod, transmission handle, second bevel gear, fixing plate, and connecting groove, facilitates the inspection and maintenance of the support device for large storage tanks. This saves workers significant time and effort, and allows for convenient repositioning of large storage tanks, thus improving the practicality of the support device for large storage tanks.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors have discovered the following drawbacks: during storage, the storage tanks are placed with their outer surfaces directly exposed. In some locations, they may collide with other items or moving objects or vehicles, directly causing the storage tanks to dent or break, affecting the subsequent storage support effect. Therefore, it is necessary to design a support device for large storage tanks that is both practical and has protective functions. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a support device for large storage tanks to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a support device for large storage tanks, including a base, with linkage ports on both sides of the inner wall of the base, two linkage rods rotatably engaged on the inner walls of the two linkage ports, sprockets fixedly connected to multiple linkage rods, two synchronous chains arranged on multiple sprockets, a load-bearing block slidably engaged on the inner wall of the base, and force-bearing blocks fixed to the synchronous chains on both sides of the load-bearing block;

[0007] The outer side of the base is slidably fitted with a protective frame, and both sides of the inner wall of the protective frame are fixedly connected with push blocks that are fixed to the synchronous chain. Both sides of the inner wall of the base are provided with support mechanisms, and the base is provided with operating components that cooperate with the support mechanisms.

[0008] According to the above technical solution, the support mechanism includes a movable groove formed on both sides of the inner wall of the base, a support block that slides on the inner wall of the movable groove, and a drive screw that rotates on both sides of the base and is threadedly engaged with the support block. The support block and the force-bearing block cooperate with each other.

[0009] According to the above technical solution, the operating component includes a synchronizing rod rotatably engaged on the upper side of the base, synchronizing gears fixedly connected to both sides of the synchronizing rod, and force-receiving gears fixedly connected to opposite sides of the two drive screws.

[0010] According to the above technical solution, external rods are fixedly connected to opposite sides of the two synchronous gears, and force-bearing discs are fixedly connected to both ends of the two external rods.

[0011] According to the above technical solution, a plurality of support plates are fixedly connected to the lower side of the base, and a protective pad is fixedly connected to the lower side of each of the plurality of support plates.

[0012] According to the above technical solution, anti-detachment grooves are provided on the upper side of both moving slots, and anti-detachment blocks that slide in cooperation with the anti-detachment grooves are fixedly connected to the upper side of both supporting blocks.

[0013] According to the above technical solution, a buffer pad is fixedly connected to the lower side of the load-bearing block, and soft cotton is fixedly connected to the outer side of the protective frame.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are:

[0015] 1. This utility model, by incorporating components such as a load-bearing block, a force-bearing block, a synchronous chain, and a pushing block, enables the storage tank containing hazardous chemicals, or the tank to be placed on the load-bearing block when installed in locations prone to collisions such as those involving vehicle movement, to move downwards under pressure. This, in turn, causes the protective frame to move upwards through the linkage of the force-bearing block, synchronous chain, and pushing block, thus providing protection for the outside of the storage tank. This effectively prevents the storage tank from being subjected to external collisions or other unexpected situations, greatly improving the safety of hazardous chemical storage.

[0016] 2. This utility model, by setting up a support mechanism and operating components, can flexibly switch the support state according to different installation environments and usage requirements. When placed in a relatively safe position or installed in a position where materials need to be frequently retrieved, the operating components are used to rotate the synchronous rod, which drives the drive screw to rotate through the synchronous gear and the force gear, pushing the support block to move and support the bottom of the load-bearing block, restricting the descent of the load-bearing block and achieving normal placement. Thus, it can be applied to a variety of different environmental scenarios, broadening its scope of application. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4The present invention provides a technical solution: a support device for a large storage tank, including a base 1, with linkage ports 2 on both sides of the inner wall of the base 1, two linkage rods 3 rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two linkage ports 2, sprockets 4 fixedly connected to the multiple linkage rods 3, two synchronous chains 5 set on the multiple sprockets 4, a load-bearing block 6 slidably connected to the inner wall of the base 1, and force-bearing blocks 7 fixed to the synchronous chains 5 on both sides of the load-bearing block 6.

[0025] A protective frame 8 is slidably fitted on the outer side of the base 1. Push blocks 9, which are fixed to the synchronous chain 5, are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the protective frame 8. Support mechanisms 10 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the base 1. An operating component 11 that cooperates with the support mechanism 10 is provided on the base 1.

[0026] Please see Figure 3 The support mechanism 10 includes a movable groove 101 formed on both sides of the inner wall of the base 1, a support block 102 slidably fitted on the inner wall of the movable groove 101, and a drive screw 103 rotatably fitted on both sides of the base 1 and threadedly fitted with the support block 102. The support block 102 cooperates with the force-bearing block 7. By rotating the drive screw 103, the support block 102 can be pushed on the base 1 to move inside the movable groove 101. When hidden in the movable groove 101, the load-bearing block 6 can move freely up and down. When it is disengaged from the movable groove 101, it will block the bottom of the load-bearing block 6, thus achieving normal support placement. The support block 102 can be made of carbon steel, which has good mechanical properties and can withstand greater pressure and load.

[0027] Please see Figure 4 The operating component 11 includes a synchronizing rod 111 rotatably fitted on the upper side of the base 1, synchronizing gears 112 fixedly connected to both sides of the synchronizing rod 111, and force-receiving gears 113 fixedly connected to opposite sides of the two drive screws 103. By rotating the synchronizing rod 111, the two synchronizing gears 112 can be rotated. The synchronizing gears 112 can drive the force-receiving gears 113 and the drive screws 103 to rotate, thereby achieving synchronization of the operation of the drive screws 103 and improving the convenience of operation.

[0028] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 Both of the two synchronous gears 112 are fixedly connected to external rods 12 on opposite sides, and both ends of the two external rods 12 are fixedly connected to force-receiving plates 13. By holding either force-receiving plate 13, the synchronous gears 112 and synchronous rods 111 can be rotated, which makes it easy to apply force during operation.

[0029] Please see Figure 3Multiple support plates 14 are fixedly connected to the lower side of the base 1. Protective pads 15 are fixedly connected to the lower side of each support plate 14. The multiple support plates 14 can be used to support the bottom of the base 1, and the protective pads 15 are used to protect the ground. There are gaps between the multiple support plates 14 to facilitate daily movement and make the trailer easy to operate.

[0030] Please see Figure 3 Both moving slots 101 have anti-detachment slots 16 on their upper sides, and both support blocks 102 have anti-detachment blocks 17 fixedly connected to their upper sides, which slide in cooperation with the anti-detachment slots 16. When the support block 102 moves, its anti-detachment block 17 will move inside the corresponding anti-detachment slot 16, thereby guiding the support block 102 and preventing it from detaching from the drive screw 103.

[0031] Please see Figure 3 A buffer pad 18 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the load-bearing block 6, and soft cotton 19 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the protective frame 8. When the load-bearing block 6 moves downward, the buffer pad 18 can buffer the impact force between the load-bearing block 6 and the bottom of the inner wall of the base 1. The soft cotton 19 can be used to protect the outer side of the protective frame 8 and reduce the reaction force after personnel accidentally collide with the protective frame 8.

[0032] The implementation principle of this application is as follows: When using this device for hazardous material storage tanks, if it is installed in a location where vehicles can move, the storage tank can be placed on the upper side of the load-bearing block 6 using appropriate equipment. When the load-bearing block 6 is compressed, it will move downward on the inner wall of the base 1. During the downward movement, the force block 7 will drive the synchronous chain 5 to move around the corresponding sprocket 4. The push block 9 on the other side is connected to the protective frame 8, which drives the protective frame 8 to move upward, thereby enabling the protective frame 8 to protect the outside of the storage tank. This effectively avoids the storage tank from being subjected to external collisions or other accidents after it is placed. Especially for storage tanks storing hazardous chemicals, this greatly improves the safety of storage.

[0033] When placed in a relatively safe location or installed in a location requiring frequent material handling, the synchronous rod 111 can be rotated to drive the two synchronous gears 112 to rotate. The synchronous gears 112 drive the force-bearing gear 113 and the drive screw 103 to rotate accordingly. The drive screw 103 can push the support block 102 to move inside the moving groove 101. The two support blocks 102 simultaneously support the bottom of the load-bearing block 6, thereby limiting the descent of the load-bearing block 6 and achieving normal placement. This allows for support under different conditions, improving the applicability to different environments.
