Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of assembly tooling technology, specifically an LNG tank assembly tooling. Background Technology

[0002] LNG tank assembly fixtures are specialized tools or equipment used in the manufacturing process of liquefied natural gas storage tanks to assist in the precise positioning, fixing, and assembly of various tank components. Their main function is to ensure the accurate relative positions of the components during the assembly process, thereby ensuring precision and safety, and improving manufacturing efficiency and finished product quality.

[0003] To adapt to different space requirements, LNG tanks are designed with different specifications and sizes. The assembly tooling required for installing LNG tanks of different specifications and sizes is also different. Existing LNG tank assembly tooling can generally only adapt to one size of LNG tank, which means that different assembly tooling needs to be changed when assembling LNG tanks of different sizes. Changing assembly tooling consumes a lot of time and manpower, resulting in a decrease in the assembly efficiency of LNG tanks. Therefore, it is necessary to improve it. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problem mentioned in the background art that replacing assembly tooling consumes a lot of time and manpower, leading to a decrease in the assembly efficiency of LNG tanks, this utility model provides an LNG tank assembly tooling.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an LNG tank assembly fixture, including a fixed base, a support component fixedly installed on the top surface of the fixed base, a drive component provided in the middle of the top surface of the fixed base, a limit groove formed in the middle of the top surface of the fixed base, the drive component including a drive unit, clamping units provided on both sides of the drive unit, the clamping units being movably connected to the fixed base, the clamping unit including a movable plate, a spring fixedly installed on one side of the movable plate, a clamping plate fixedly installed at the end of the spring, and three sets of clamping plates, with a spring provided on the side of each set of clamping plates near the movable plate.

[0006] Preferably, the support assembly includes a support column, and a support member is fixedly installed at the upper end of the support column, the support member being arc-shaped.

[0007] Preferably, the drive unit includes a drive motor, a rotating component is fixedly mounted on the output end of the drive motor, and connecting rods are provided on both sides of the top surface of the rotating component.

[0008] Preferably, the end of the connecting rod away from the rotating part is connected to the moving plate, and the outer wall of the drive motor is provided with a fixing frame, which is fixedly connected to the fixing base.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the movable plate is provided with a slider, and the slider is movably connected to the limiting groove, the inner cavity of the limiting groove being smooth.

[0010] Preferably, a rubber block is provided on one side of the clamping plate, and the three sets of clamping plates are arranged in an arc shape.

[0011] Preferably, the fixed base is provided with fixing members on both sides, and the fixed base is made of stainless steel.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This invention utilizes the cooperation of a moving plate and a spring. The rotation of the rotating component drives the connecting rod to move, which in turn drives the moving plate to move closer to the LNG tank. After moving to a certain position, the clamping plate gradually comes into contact with the outer wall of the LNG tank. During this contact, the clamping plate cushions the LNG tank, preventing damage to its outer wall. This design avoids the need to change different assembly tools when assembling LNG tanks of different sizes, thus saving a significant amount of time and improving assembly efficiency.

[0019] 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.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides an LNG tank assembly fixture, including a fixed base 1, a support component 2 fixedly installed on the top surface of the fixed base 1, a drive component 3 provided in the middle of the top surface of the fixed base 1, a limit groove 4 opened in the middle of the top surface of the fixed base 1, the drive component 3 includes a drive unit 31, clamping units 32 are provided on both sides of the drive unit 31, the clamping units 32 are movably connected to the fixed base 1, the clamping unit 32 includes a moving plate 321, a spring 322 is fixedly installed on one side of the moving plate 321, a clamping plate 323 is fixedly installed at the end of the spring 322, three sets of clamping plates 323 are provided, and each set of clamping plates 323 is provided with a spring 322 on the side of the moving plate 321.

[0021] The above solution is adopted as follows: After the LNG tank is placed on the surface of the support assembly 2 through the cooperation of the moving plate 321 and the spring 322, the drive unit 31 is activated. The drive unit 31 drives the moving plates 321 on both sides to move closer to the LNG tank. After moving to a certain position, the clamping plate 323 gradually comes into contact with the outer wall of the LNG tank. During contact, the clamping plate 323 compresses the spring 322, so that the clamping plate 323 buffers the LNG tank during clamping, avoiding damage to the outer wall of the LNG tank. The clamping unit 32 is set to be symmetrically installed and can... By fixing and clamping LNG tanks of different sizes, it avoids the need to change different assembly tools when assembling LNG tanks of different sizes, thus saving a lot of time and improving assembly efficiency. The design of three sets of springs 322 and clamping plates 323 allows for better fit with the outer wall of the LNG tank, adapting to LNG tanks of different sizes, making the LNG tank more stable during assembly, reducing errors during assembly, and ensuring that the LNG tank is in the correct position during assembly.

[0022] like Figure 2 , Figure 4As shown, the drive unit 31 includes a drive motor 311. A rotating component 312 is fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor 311. Connecting rods 313 are provided on both sides of the top surface of the rotating component 312. The end of the connecting rod 313 away from the rotating component 312 is connected to the moving plate 321. A fixing frame is provided on the outer wall of the drive motor 311, and the fixing frame is fixedly connected to the fixing base 1. A rubber block is provided on one side of the clamping plate 323. The three sets of clamping plates 323 are arc-shaped.

[0023] The above solution involves the cooperation of the drive motor 311 and the rotating component 312. When the LNG tank is placed on the surface of the support component 22, the drive motor 311 is activated. The rotation of the drive motor 311 causes the rotating component 312 to rotate, which in turn moves the connecting rod 313. The moving connecting rod 313 then moves the clamping unit 32, allowing for the assembly of LNG tanks of different sizes. This avoids the need to change assembly tools when assembling LNG tanks of different sizes. The connection between the connecting rod 313 and the moving plate 321 ensures that when the rotating component 312 drives the connecting rod 313 to rotate, the connecting rod 313 moves the moving plate 321. The moving plate 321 then moves the spring 322 and the clamping plate 323, thereby allowing the clamping plate 323 to hold the LNG tank. The clamping and fixing of the tank makes the assembly of LNG tanks more stable and can fix LNG tanks of different sizes and specifications, avoiding the need to change different assembly tooling when assembling LNG tanks of different sizes, thus improving the assembly efficiency of LNG tanks. The design of the outer wall fixing bracket of the drive motor 311 makes the drive motor 311 more stable during operation. Through the design of the clamping plate 323 and the rubber block design of the clamping plate 323, after the LNG tank is placed on the top surface of the support component 2, the rubber block provides a certain degree of protection for the outer wall of the LNG tank when the clamping plate 323 clamps the LNG tank, preventing damage to the outer wall of the LNG tank. The arc design of the three sets of clamping plates 323 better fits the outer wall of the LNG tank, thus making the clamping effect of the LNG tank better.

[0024] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the support assembly 2 includes a support column 21, and a support member 22 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the support column 21. The support member 22 is arc-shaped. A slider is provided at the bottom of the movable plate 321, and the slider is movably connected to the limiting groove 4. The inner cavity of the limiting groove 4 is smooth. Fixing members are provided on both sides of the fixed base 1. The fixed base 1 is made of stainless steel.

[0025] The above scheme is adopted as follows: After the fixed base 1 is fixed by the cooperation of the support column 21 and the support member 22, the LNG tank is placed on the top surface of the support member 22 to support the LNG tank. The arc-shaped design of the support member 22 makes the support member 22 fit more closely to the outer wall of the LNG tank, thereby making the LNG tank more stable during assembly and ensuring that the welding is in the correct position. Through the cooperation of the moving plate 321 and the limiting groove 4, the design of the slider of the moving plate 321 allows the slider and the limiting groove 4 to limit the moving plate 321 when the moving plate 321 clamps the LNG tank, making the moving plate 321 more stable when moving. The smooth inner cavity design of the limiting groove 4 reduces the friction between the slider at the bottom of the moving plate 321 and the inner cavity of the limiting groove 4 when moving. The friction makes it easier for the slider at the bottom of the moving plate 321 to move in the limiting groove 4. Through the design of the fixed base 1 and the design of the fixing parts on both sides of the fixed base 1, the fixed base 1 is fixed with screws, so that there will be no shaking when assembling the LNG tank, making the assembly of the LNG tank more stable, thereby helping to position the LNG tank and reducing the error during the assembly of the LNG tank. The fixed base 1 is made of stainless steel, which does not contain harmful substances and has good chemical stability, reducing the risk of harmful substance pollution caused by metal corrosion. The surface is smooth and hard, and it is not easy to get stains when cleaning, making it very convenient to clean. It has high mechanical strength and durability, long service life, and can withstand long-term use without being easily damaged.

[0026] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0027] After the LNG tank is placed on the surface of the support 22, the drive motor 311 is started. The drive motor 311 rotates, causing the rotating component 312 to rotate. The rotating component 312 rotates, causing the connecting rod 313 to move. The moving rod 313 moves, causing the moving plate 321 to move. The moving plate 321 moves closer to the LNG tank. After moving to a certain position, the clamping plate 323 gradually comes into contact with the outer wall of the LNG tank. During contact, the clamping plate 323 compresses the spring 322, so that the clamping plate 323 buffers the LNG tank during clamping, avoiding damage to the outer wall of the LNG tank. It can also fix and clamp LNG tanks of different sizes, avoiding the need to change different assembly tools when assembling LNG tanks of different sizes. This achieves the effect of saving a lot of time and improving assembly efficiency when assembling LNG tanks of different sizes.
