Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of liquid cargo ship technology, specifically to a liquid cargo ship residual liquid collection device. Background Technology

[0002] Liquid cargo ships are generally ships specifically designed to carry liquid cargo. Based on the different types of cargo they carry, liquid cargo ships can be divided into three categories: oil tankers, liquefied gas carriers, and liquid chemical tankers. Among them, oil tankers are specialized ships that carry bulk crude oil and refined oil products, and they are generally quite large in tonnage. Therefore, after most of the liquid cargo carried by a liquid cargo ship is unloaded, due to the limitations of its own hull structure, a certain amount of residual liquid will remain. To address this issue, current technologies mostly rely on manual cleaning. While this achieves the goal, it is labor-intensive and inefficient.

[0003] In recent years, with the continuous development of related technologies, some technical solutions for cleaning residual liquids using pump suction equipment have been disclosed in the existing technology, such as tank cleaning pumps. These pumps can provide pumping conditions for removing residual liquids from cargo oil tanks and pumping out air and sewage, greatly reducing the labor intensity of crew members. However, the conduits currently used with these pumps have a relatively simple structure. Although they can be used with existing filters to prevent clogging of residual liquids containing impurities, blockages are still likely to occur, and their practicality remains quite limited.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-5A liquid cargo ship residual liquid collection device includes a tank sweeping pump 1 and a composite collection pipe head. A transition conduit 2 is installed between the input end of the tank sweeping pump 1 and the composite collection pipe head, and an outer support 15 is fitted on the outside of the tank sweeping pump 1. The composite collection pipe head includes a collection pipe 3, an elastic folding pipe 4, and a support pipe 5. The elastic folding pipe 4 is installed between the collection pipe 3 and the support pipe 5, and the internal space of the collection pipe 3 communicates with the internal space of the transition conduit 2. An adjustment component is provided at the bottom of the collection pipe 3. The adjustment component includes a semi-enclosed baffle 6 and a filter frame plate 8. The inner side of the middle part of the semi-enclosed baffle 6 is fitted with a filter frame plate fixed by a bearing. The support shaft 7 on the top surface of the middle part of the plate 8, the interior of the semi-enclosed baffle 6 and the interior of the filter frame plate 8 are provided with fan-shaped grooves. The bottom surface of the semi-enclosed baffle 6 is fixed with an auxiliary partition 10 that fits and connects with the top surface of the filter frame plate 8. The fan-shaped groove inside the filter frame plate 8 is nested with a fan-shaped filter screen 9. The outside of the collection pipe 3 is provided with a power component 14. The output end of the power component 14 is connected to a gear 12, and the gear 12 meshes with a gear ring 11 fitted on the outside of the filter frame plate 8, so that the two fan-shaped grooves can be aligned or misaligned and closed during the relative rotation adjustment process of the filter frame plate 8 and the semi-enclosed baffle 6.

[0024] The power assembly 14 includes a stepper motor 141, a controller component 142, and a protective cover 143. The surface of the protective cover 143 is fixed to the surface of the collecting tube 3. The controller component 142 and the stepper motor 141 are both housed inside the protective cover 143. The output end of the stepper motor 141 passes through the bottom structure of the protective cover 143 and is connected to the middle of the gear 12 for transmission, thereby meeting the power requirements for the automatic rotation of the gear 12 and achieving automated operation. The controller component 142 includes a controller, a battery module, and a wireless communication module. The controller is electrically connected to the stepper motor 141 through a wire for remote control during subsequent operation. A waterproof first sealing ring is nested at the fitting point between the stepper motor 141 and the protective cover 143 to ensure the reliability of continuous use of the power assembly 14.

[0025] The semi-enclosed baffle 6 is located above the filter frame plate 8, and there is a clearance space between the semi-enclosed baffle 6 and the filter frame plate 8. Several brush strips 13 are fixed on the bottom surface of one side of the semi-enclosed baffle 6. During the relative rotation adjustment of the filter frame plate 8 and the semi-enclosed baffle 6, the bottom end of the brush strip 13 can fit into the corresponding filter gap in the fan-shaped filter screen 9 to clean the fan-shaped filter screen 9, thereby ensuring the continuous and efficient filtration effect of the fan-shaped filter screen 9.

[0026] When in use, the sweeping pump 1 automatically pumps the remaining residual liquid in the storage space of the ship's hold through the flow channel formed by the transition conduit 2, the collection pipe 3, the elastic folding pipe 4 and the support pipe 5. During the pumping process, the initially discharged residual liquid will be filtered by the fan-shaped filter screen 9, so it is relatively clean and can be recycled and reused as needed.

[0027] When the pumped flow rate decreases significantly, it indicates that the fan-shaped filter 9 may be clogged. The stepper motor 141 is remotely started via the controller component 142. The output of the stepper motor 141 drives the gear 12 to rotate synchronously. The meshing transmission between the gear 12 and the gear ring 11 causes the assembly formed by the filter frame plate 8 and the fan-shaped filter 9 to rotate 180 degrees periodically at a fixed distance. Then, the multiple brush strips 13 set at the bottom of the semi-enclosed baffle 6 clean the fan-shaped filter 9 to eliminate the clogging problem. After cleaning for a certain period of time, the stepper motor 141 is turned off after the filter frame plate 8 and the fan-shaped filter 9 are in the reset position, and the pumping can be continued using the whole device.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-4 The two ends of the elastic folding tube 4 are fixedly connected to one end of the support tube 5 and the top of the collection tube 3, respectively, and the support tube 5 and the collection tube 3 are spatially connected. The elastic folding tube 4 has the structural performance of reciprocating expansion and contraction deformation. The top of the outer bracket 15 is fitted with a lifting component 16 for lifting and lowering the collection tube 3. The lifting component 16 includes a protective cylinder 161, an electric push rod 162 and a linkage plate 163. The surface of the protective cylinder 161 is fixed to the inner wall of the top of the outer bracket 15. The electric push rod 162 is fitted inside the protective cylinder 161, and the output end of the electric push rod 162 passes through the bottom structure of the protective cylinder 161 and is connected to one side of the linkage plate 163. The other end of the linkage plate 163 is installed on the top of one side of the collection tube 3. A second waterproof sealing ring is nested at the fitting point between the output end of the electric push rod 162 and the bottom structure of the protective cylinder 161 to ensure the sealing effect of the connection. The electric push rod 162 is electrically connected to the controller inside the controller component 142 through a wire.

[0029] In use, for the final stage of residual liquid with many impurities that cannot be filtered, the stepper motor 141 can be remotely started by the controller component 142. The output end of the stepper motor 141 drives the gear 12 to rotate synchronously. By utilizing the meshing transmission between the gear 12 and the gear ring 11, the combination formed by the filter frame plate 8 and the fan-shaped filter screen 9 rotates 180 degrees at a fixed distance, thereby aligning the filter frame plate 8 with the semi-enclosed baffle 6, and making sufficient clearance at the bottom of the collection pipe 3. The electric push rod 162 is then activated, and the output end of the electric push rod 162 drives the linkage plate 163 and the collection pipe 3 to move downward, shortening the distance between the bottom port of the collection pipe 3 and the residual liquid. Then, the tank cleaning pump 1 powerfully pumps the last remaining residual liquid in the storage space of the ship's hold through the flow channel formed by the transition conduit 2, the collection pipe 3, the elastic folding pipe 4, and the support pipe 5, achieving a relatively complete cleaning effect.
