Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transport container technology, and more specifically, to a marine liquid transport tank. Background Technology

[0002] In the modern shipping industry, efficient cargo transportation has always been a goal pursued by the sector. Solid goods are typically transported in standardized containers, stacked for efficient storage. This method not only improves space utilization but also facilitates loading, unloading, and management, significantly enhancing transportation efficiency. However, the transportation of liquid cargo presents a different challenge. Currently, liquids are mostly transported by ship in various shaped transport tanks. Because these tanks are not uniformly shaped, they cannot be effectively stacked within the ship's hold like containers, resulting in lower transportation efficiency and increased costs.

[0003] The problems caused by the non-uniform shape of liquid transport tanks are mainly reflected in the following aspects: First, transport tanks of different shapes cannot be neatly arranged and stacked in the ship's hold, resulting in low utilization of hold space and failing to fully realize the ship's transport potential. Second, transport tanks of different shapes require more adjustment and securing measures during loading and unloading, increasing operational complexity and time costs, and reducing transport efficiency. Furthermore, irregularly shaped transport tanks may pose safety hazards due to swaying during transport, threatening the stability of the ship and the safety of the cargo.

[0004] To improve the efficiency of liquid cargo shipping, reduce transportation costs, and ensure the safety and stability of the transportation process, it is particularly necessary to develop a stackable marine liquid transport tank. This tank should have a uniform shape and size, allowing it to be neatly stacked in the ship's hold like a container, making full use of hold space, and facilitating loading, unloading, and management to meet the high-efficiency demands of the modern shipping industry for liquid cargo transportation. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a marine liquid transport tank to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a marine liquid transport tank, comprising a tank body, an inlet pipe installed near the top of one end of the tank body, and an outlet pipe installed at the bottom of the tank body.

[0007] The tank body is fixedly fitted with at least two sets of connecting frames. Two support feet are fixed to the bottom of the connecting frames, and two support seats are fixed to the top of the connecting frames. The support seats are provided with limiting grooves for limiting the position of the support feet.

[0008] Both sides of the connecting frame have lifting lugs for connecting to a crane to lift the tank. It can also be connected to adjacent tanks to provide stability.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when stacking several tanks, the support feet of the upper tank are installed in the limiting groove of the lower tank. The stability of the tank is improved by the cooperation of the support feet and the limiting groove. The lifting lugs of several tanks can also be connected to further improve the stacking stability.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the tank body has a cavity for holding liquid materials, and a number of baffles are fixed in the cavity to prevent the liquid in the cavity from sloshing.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the plurality of baffles extend and are installed along the length and width directions of the tank, respectively.

[0012] Baffles extending along the length of the tank are used to prevent the liquid in the cavity from sloshing along the width.

[0013] Baffles extending along the width of the tank are used to prevent the liquid in the cavity from sloshing along its length.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that the edge of the tank is arc-shaped to avoid stress concentration that could cause the tank to crack.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that the discharge pipe is installed at the bottom of the tank and close to the edge of the tank so as to connect with external conveying equipment and facilitate operation.

[0016] The present invention is further provided that a through groove is provided on one of the connecting frames at the position corresponding to the discharge pipe.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a marine liquid transport tank, which has the following advantages:

[0018] 1. When stacking several tanks, the support feet of the upper tank are installed in the limiting groove of the lower tank. The stability of the tank is improved by the cooperation of the support feet and the limiting groove. The lifting lugs of several tanks can also be connected to further improve the stacking stability.

[0019] 2. Several baffles are fixed inside the cavity to prevent the liquid in the cavity from sloshing. The baffles are installed along the length and width of the tank. The baffles extending along the length of the tank are used to prevent the liquid in the cavity from sloshing along the width, and the baffles extending along the width of the tank are used to prevent the liquid in the cavity from sloshing along the length.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-4The marine liquid transport tank includes a tank body 1. A feed pipe 101 is installed at one end of the tank body 1 near the top, and a discharge pipe 102 is installed at the bottom of the tank body 1. At least two sets of connecting frames 2 are fixedly fitted on the outside of the tank body 1. Two support feet 3 are fixed at the bottom of the connecting frames 2, and two support seats 4 are fixed at the top of the connecting frames 2. The support seats 4 are provided with limiting grooves 401 for limiting the support feet 3. Both sides of the connecting frames 2 have lifting lugs 5 for connecting with a crane to lift the tank body 1. They can also be connected with adjacent tank bodies 1 to provide stability. The tank body 1 has a cavity for holding liquid materials. Several baffles 6 are fixed in the cavity to prevent large sloshing of the liquid in the cavity. The edge of the tank body 1 is arc-shaped to avoid stress concentration that could cause the tank body 1 to crack. The discharge pipe 102 is installed at the bottom of the tank body 1 and near the edge of the tank body 1 to facilitate communication with external conveying equipment and operation. One of the connecting frames 2 is provided with a through groove 201 corresponding to the discharge pipe 102.

[0030] In specific applications, valves are installed on the feed pipe 101 and the discharge pipe 102 according to requirements. Liquid material is injected into the cavity of the tank 1 from the feed pipe 101. When it is necessary to discharge the liquid material, it is discharged from the discharge pipe 102 of the tank 1. In order to ensure that the liquid material is discharged smoothly, it is necessary to ensure that there are gaps for the liquid material to pass through at the bottom or on both sides of the bottom of any baffle 6.

[0031] When stacking the tank 1, a crane is directly connected to the lifting lug 5 to lift the tank 1 and place it on top of another tank 1. The support leg 3 in the upper tank 1 should be compatible with the limiting groove 401 on the support seat 4 of the lower tank 1. The limiting groove 401 limits the upper tank 1. If necessary, the lifting lugs 5 of the two adjacent tanks 1 can also be connected and fixed with ropes or connecting rods to improve the installation stability of the tank 1.

[0032] Several baffles 6 are installed extending along the length and width of the tank body 1 respectively. The baffles 6 extending along the length of the tank body 1 are used to prevent the liquid in the cavity from sloshing along the width direction, and the baffles 6 extending along the width direction of the tank body 1 are used to prevent the liquid in the cavity from sloshing along the length direction.

[0033] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred.
