Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical engineering technology, and in particular to an automatic sealing device for tank cracks. Background Technology

[0002] In the petrochemical and transportation industries, various types of tanks are widely used for storing and transporting hazardous chemicals, oils, and liquid chemicals. However, due to factors such as scouring, corrosion, aging, external impacts, and frequent swaying caused by wind and waves, tanks are prone to problems such as leakage, pinholes in welds, and cracks. Once a leak occurs, it may cause serious accidents such as fires, explosions, poisoning, and pollution, resulting in huge casualties and property losses. Currently, existing sealing technologies, such as fastening leak-stopping methods, have drawbacks such as long manufacturing time, the need for on-site surveying and design, limited applicability, and high operational difficulty.

[0003] Existing automatic tank crack sealing devices, based on pressure difference leak point location technology, can provide a general range of crack location. In some small, relatively simple water storage tanks, by monitoring pressure changes in different parts of the tank, abnormal pressure areas can be quickly identified, thus preliminarily determining the approximate location of the crack. However, its disadvantages include the complex tank structure, limited detection accuracy, lack of real-time dynamic positioning capability, environmental interference, and complex installation and debugging of the positioning system, all of which affect the accuracy and timeliness of positioning. But it also has certain advantages, such as the ability of some technologies to achieve preliminary positioning and good positioning performance in specific scenarios. Utility Model Content
