Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transport vehicle tank technology, and in particular to a pressure regulating device for transport vehicle tanks. Background Technology
[0002] Tank trucks are widely used for transporting liquids, gases, and other materials, and their safety and reliability are paramount. During transportation, the pressure inside the tank fluctuates due to factors such as temperature changes and material evaporation. Excessive pressure can lead to tank rupture and safety accidents; insufficient pressure can cause material leakage or prevent proper unloading. Therefore, a device capable of effectively regulating the internal pressure of the tank is needed to ensure the safety and stability of the transportation process.
[0003] Patent document (CN204938002U) discloses a pressure adaptive adjustment system for a fresh milk transport vehicle and the vehicle itself. The tank is equipped with a breathing device connected to an air pipeline. A discharge valve is connected to a self-priming pump. When the discharge valve is opened, a switch opens synchronously with it. The switch connects to a power source and a solenoid valve, which in turn connects to the air pipeline, allowing compressed air to enter the breathing device. The piston rod in the air chamber pushes open the sealing cover, allowing the tank to communicate with the outside environment through the breathing device. The breathing device may include a porous breathing ring plate. The self-priming pump then initiates self-priming, discharging milk from the tank through the discharge pipe. This invention also allows for the synchronous opening and closing of the discharge valve and the breathing device, ensuring complete isolation between the inside and outside of the tank during non-discharging periods to prevent external contamination; during discharging, the inside and outside of the tank are connected, avoiding internal and external pressure differences.
[0004] When using the above technology, the following technical problems were found in the existing technology: the existing pressure regulating device is not convenient to release pressure according to the different pressure inside the tank, and it is not convenient to control the pressure release flow rate. Therefore, a pressure regulating device for transport vehicle tank is designed to provide another technical solution to the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

The first baffle plate is fixed at the end of the first blocking plate near the second blocking plate. The second baffle plate is fixed at the end of the second blocking plate near the first blocking plate. The first baffle plate and the second baffle plate are fixed alternately.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the pressure regulating device for a transport vehicle tank provided by this utility model, the top of the second baffle plate does not contact the top of the inside of the tank body.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the pressure regulating device for a transport vehicle tank provided by this utility model, a limiting component is installed inside the exhaust pipe at the end of the displacement plate away from the main body of the tank.

[0013] It is clear without a doubt that the technical solution described above in this application can solve the technical problem that this application aims to address.
[0014] At the same time, through the above technical solutions, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0015] This utility model provides a pressure regulating device for a transport vehicle tank. Through the cooperation of the tank body, the venting mechanism and the blocking mechanism, when there is liquid inside the tank body, the blocking mechanism prevents the liquid from entering the venting mechanism. At the same time, when the gas pressure inside the tank body is too high, the venting mechanism releases the pressure, thereby regulating the pressure inside the tank body.
[0016] By combining the first baffle plate, the second baffle plate, the first barrier plate, and the second barrier plate, the liquid can pass through the intersection of the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate, as well as the intersection of the first barrier plate and the second barrier plate, preventing the liquid from sloshing inside the tank body and crossing the second baffle plate to enter the exhaust pipe.
[0017] Through the cooperation of the exhaust pipe, air outlet groove, displacement plate, sealing plug and tension spring, when the pressure inside the tank body is too high during use, when the pressure exceeds the sealing effect between the sealing plug and the exhaust pipe and the elastic force generated by the tension spring, the sealing plug drives the displacement plate to slide inside the exhaust pipe under the action of pressure. At the same time, the displacement plate drives the tension spring to stretch, so that the air pressure passes through the air outlet groove, overcomes the obstruction of the displacement plate and is discharged through the positioning filter plate.
[0018] Through the cooperation of the rotating shaft, the limiting cam, the rotating column, and the pointing block, the limiting cam can be rotated by the rotating column driving the rotating shaft during use. The limiting cam restricts the sliding stroke of the displacement plate inside the exhaust pipe, and the rotation angle of the limiting cam can be externally indicated by the pointing block.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0029] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0030] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.
[0031] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
[0032] Reference Figures 1-7 A pressure regulating device for a transport vehicle tank includes a transport vehicle body 1 and a tank body 2. The tank body 2 is fixed to one end of the top of the transport vehicle body 1, and the tank body 2 is moved by the movement of the transport vehicle body 1. An exhaust pipe 3 is fixed to the top of one end of the tank body 2, so that the gas inside the tank body 2 can be discharged to the outside through the exhaust pipe 3 to realize the flow of gas. A positioning filter plate 4 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the end of the exhaust pipe 3 away from the tank body 2. The positioning filter plate 4 has through holes, so that the gas inside the exhaust pipe 3 can be discharged through the positioning filter plate 4, and the positioning filter plate 4 can filter solid impurities. A filter plate 5 is provided inside the positioning filter plate 4, so that the gas can only be discharged from the inside of the exhaust pipe 3 through the positioning filter plate 4 by the obstruction of the filter plate 5, or only the gas in the outside air can enter the exhaust pipe 3 through the filter plate 5.
[0033] A blocking mechanism is fixed inside the tank body 2 at one end near the exhaust pipe 3. The blocking mechanism blocks the liquid inside the tank body 2, preventing the liquid from entering the exhaust pipe 3 when it shakes. The blocking mechanism includes a first blocking plate 6, a second blocking plate 7, a first baffle plate 8, and a second baffle plate 9. The second blocking plate 7 is fixed inside the tank body 2 at one end near the exhaust pipe 3. The second blocking plate 7 is L-shaped, so that the position between the second blocking plate 7 and the tank body 2 is the air inlet of the exhaust pipe 3. The top of the second blocking plate 7 does not contact the top of the inside of the tank body 2, so that the gas inside the tank body 2 can enter the exhaust pipe 3 through the top of the second blocking plate 7.
[0034] Inside the tank body 2, at the end of the second baffle plate 7 furthest from the exhaust pipe 3, a first baffle plate 6 is fixed, such that the top of the first baffle plate 6 is fixed to the top of the inside of the tank body 2, and the first baffle plate 6 and the second baffle plate 7 are staggered. Thus, through the double blocking of the first baffle plate 6 and the second baffle plate 7, only liquid passing through the bottom of the first baffle plate 6 can enter between the first baffle plate 6 and the second baffle plate 7. A first barrier plate 8 is fixed to the end of the first baffle plate 6 near the second baffle plate 7, and a second barrier plate 9 is fixed to the end of the second baffle plate 7 near the first baffle plate 6. The first barrier plate 8 and the second barrier plate 9 are staggered and fixed, with the end of the first barrier plate 8 near the second baffle plate 7 being the lowest point, and the end of the second barrier plate 9 near the first baffle plate 6 being the lowest point. Thus, the first barrier plate 8 and the second barrier plate 9 can block the position between the first baffle plate 6 and the second baffle plate 7, and the tilt of the first barrier plate 8 and the second barrier plate 9 allows the splashed liquid to slide down.
[0035] An adjustment mechanism for exhaust is installed inside the exhaust pipe 3. The exhaust mechanism includes a displacement plate 11, a sealing plug 12, and a tension spring 13. The displacement plate 11 is slidably connected inside the exhaust pipe 3. The sealing plug 12 is fixed to one end of the displacement plate 11 near the tank body 2, and the sealing plug 12 is slidably connected to the exhaust pipe 3. When the sealing plug 12 is located in the exhaust hole that connects the exhaust pipe 3 to the tank body 2, the air pressure inside the tank body 2 is too low to cause the sealing plug 12 to move and disengage inside the exhaust pipe 3. The displacement plate 11 is located near the end of the tank body 2 and is positioned at the sealing plug. Tension springs 13 are evenly distributed and fixed on the outer side of 12, so that the elastic force generated by the tension springs 13 can increase the pressure of the air pressure inside the tank body 2 to push the sealing plug 12. The exhaust pipe 3 is evenly distributed with air outlet grooves 10 at the end of the displacement plate 11 away from the tank body 2, so that the displacement plate 11 moves inside the exhaust pipe 3. When the sealing plug 12 is separated from the exhaust hole inside the exhaust pipe 3, the end of the air outlet groove 10 near the tank body 2 is located at the end of the displacement plate 11 near the tank body 2, so that the gas inside the tank body 2 can be discharged from the exhaust pipe 3 through the air outlet groove 10.
[0036] In this embodiment, the pressure relief speed is adjusted by the length of the vent groove 10 located at the end of the displacement plate 11 near the tank body 2. In other embodiments, multiple vent grooves 10 can be progressively opened inside the exhaust pipe 3, and the positions of multiple vent grooves 10 away from the tank body 2 can be increased sequentially, so that the pressure relief speed can be adjusted according to the pressure.
[0037] A limiting component is installed inside the exhaust pipe 3 at the end of the displacement plate 11 away from the main body 2 of the tank. The limiting component includes a rotating shaft 16, a limiting cam 17, an annular disc 18, a compression spring 19, an anti-detachment plate 20, an anti-rotation block 21, a synchronizing block 22, a rotating column 23, and a pointing block 24. The rotating shaft 16 is rotatably connected inside the exhaust pipe 3 at the end of the displacement plate 11 away from the main body 2 of the tank. The limiting cam 17 is fixed on the outside of the rotating shaft 16, so that the rotating shaft 16 drives the rotation of the limiting cam 17. The limiting cam 17 limits the stroke of the displacement plate 11 away from the main body 2 inside the exhaust pipe 3. An annular groove 14 and an anti-rotation groove 15 are opened inside one side of the exhaust pipe 3. The anti-rotation groove 15 is located on the side of the annular groove 14 away from the limiting cam 17. The annular groove 14 and the anti-rotation groove 15 are connected, so that one side of the rotating shaft 16 passes through the exhaust pipe 3 and enters the inside of the annular groove 14, thereby allowing the rotating shaft 16 to rotate stably inside the tension spring 13.
[0038] An anti-detachment plate 20 is slidably connected to the inner side of the annular groove 14, so that the anti-detachment plate 20 can rotate and slide inside the annular groove 14. A synchronizing block 22 is fixed to one end of the anti-detachment plate 20 near the rotating shaft 16. The synchronizing block 22 is slidably connected to the rotating shaft 16, so that the shape of the synchronizing block 22 is rectangular, irregular, or not cylindrical, so that the rotation of the anti-detachment plate 20 can drive the rotating shaft 16 to rotate synchronously through the synchronizing block 22. An annular disk 18 is slidably connected inside the annular groove 14 and on the side of the anti-detachment plate 20 near the limiting cam 17. The annular disk 18 is located outside the synchronizing block 22. Compression springs 19 are evenly distributed and fixed on the side of the annular disk 18 away from the anti-detachment plate 20 and on the outside of the synchronizing block 22, so that the anti-detachment plate 20 moves in the direction of the limiting cam 17 inside the annular groove 14, causing the annular disk 18 to drive the compression springs 19 to compress.
[0039] An anti-rotation block 21 is fixed to the side of the anti-detachment plate 20 away from the annular disc 18. The anti-rotation block 21 is slidably connected to the anti-rotation groove 15, so that when the anti-rotation block 21 is inside the anti-rotation groove 15, the anti-detachment plate 20 cannot rotate. A rotating column 23 is fixed to the end of the anti-rotation block 21 away from the anti-detachment plate 20, so that an external hex wrench can enter the interior of the rotating column 23 and drive the rotating column 23 to rotate. At the same time, the rotating column 23 can be moved by external force, so that the rotating column 23 drives the anti-rotation block 21 from the interior of the anti-rotation groove 15 into the interior of the annular groove 14. A pointing block 24 is fixed to the end of the rotating column 23 away from the anti-rotation block 21, so that the pointing block 24 is located outside the exhaust pipe 3, so that the rotation angle of the limiting cam 17 can be viewed from the outside through the rotation angle of the pointing block 24, and the travel limit distance of the displacement plate 11 can be determined.
[0040] In this embodiment, both the anti-rotation block 21 and the anti-rotation groove 15 are polygonal, specifically decagonal, so that the anti-rotation block 21 can re-enter the interior of the anti-rotation groove 15 after rotating by an angle, thereby limiting the displacement plate 11 by rotating the limiting cam 17 by different angles. In other embodiments, modifications can be made as needed.
[0041] The operation of the pressure regulating device for a transport vehicle tank provided by this utility model is as follows: When a large amount of liquid is stored inside the tank body 2, and a large amount of gas is generated inside the tank body 2 due to shaking or input, the gas is allowed to pass between the first baffle plate 6 and the second baffle plate 7, and after passing through the intersection of the first baffle plate 8 and the second baffle plate 9, it enters the interior of the exhaust pipe 3. When the pressure of the gas is greater than the elastic force generated by the sealing plug 12 inside the exhaust pipe 3 and the exhaust pipe 3, the sealing plug 12 drives the displacement plate 11 to slide inside the exhaust pipe 3, and the exhaust pipe 3 drives the tension spring 13 to stretch. When the sealing plug 12 is removed from the exhaust hole on the exhaust pipe 3, the gas is allowed to pass through the gas outlet groove 10, pass over the displacement plate 11, be filtered by the filter plate 5, and be discharged by the positioning filter plate 4.
[0042] Meanwhile, during transportation, according to the speed of air pressure emission, the external hexagonal wrench can be used to enter the interior of the rotating column 23 in advance, driving the anti-rotation block 21 from the interior of the anti-rotation groove 15 into the interior of the annular groove 14. At this time, the pointing block 24 is not in contact with the exhaust pipe 3. At this time, due to the rotation of the rotating column 23, the rotation of the rotating column 23 drives the anti-rotation block 21, the anti-detachment plate 20 and the synchronizing block 22 to rotate. The rotation of the synchronizing block 22 drives the rotating shaft 16 to drive the limiting cam 17 to rotate. The rotation angle of the limiting cam 17 can be displayed by the external pointing block 24. The sliding stroke of the displacement plate 11 inside the exhaust pipe 3 is limited by the protruding position of the limiting cam 17.

These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the present utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
