Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of condensate tank protection technology, and in particular to a protective component for condensate tanks. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production and certain specific applications, steam condensate tanks are common devices used to collect and store the liquid formed by the condensation of steam. Currently, conventional steam condensate tanks have certain design shortcomings. Existing steam condensate tanks typically lack effective side protection, and most of them are directly exposed to the operating environment with relatively simple tank structures.

[0003] In practical use, steam condensate tanks operate in complex and diverse environments, inevitably subject to various unexpected situations. When a steam condensate tank is impacted, the lack of protection makes it prone to breakage. Once broken, this not only causes condensate leakage, disrupting normal production, but also poses safety hazards, such as damage to surrounding equipment and personnel from leaked condensate. Therefore, developing a protective component for condensate tanks to enhance their protective capabilities and prevent breakage due to impact is an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a protective component for condensate tanks to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A protective assembly for a condensate tank includes a surrounding plate, which is arranged around the perimeter of the condensate tank body via a connector. The connector includes a fixed rod, a movable rod, a compression spring, and a first damping element. The fixed rod is horizontally fixed to the side wall of the tank body. One end of the movable rod has a blind hole for mounting, into which the fixed rod slides. A compression spring is installed within the blind hole, and the first damping element is installed at the contact section between the fixed rod and the blind hole. A hinge is provided at the end of the movable rod, and an arc-shaped surrounding plate is hinged thereto. The surrounding plate is evenly arranged around the perimeter of the tank body. Gaps are provided between adjacent surrounding plates to prevent interference, and vertical buffer strips are provided on the side wall of the tank body opposite the gaps.

[0007] Furthermore, the first damping element is a rubber ring.

[0008] Furthermore, the middle of the enclosure is hinged to the end of the movable rod. The hinge axis is vertically oriented, and a second damping element, which is a rubber pad, is installed in the hinge axis.

[0009] Furthermore, the cushioning element is cushioning foam or cushioning rubber.

[0010] Furthermore, 6-8 enclosures are evenly arranged around the circumference of the tank.

[0011] This invention also includes other components that enable the protective assembly for the condensate tank to function properly, and these devices or components all employ conventional techniques in the art. Furthermore, devices and components not limited in this invention all employ conventional techniques in the art, such as the compression springs mentioned in this application. In specific implementation, appropriate device or component models can be selected according to the specific working scenario.

[0012] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When the middle of the enclosure is impacted, the impact force is transmitted through the enclosure to the movable rod, causing the movable rod to slide axially along the fixed rod, compressing the compression spring in the blind hole and generating elastic deformation. Simultaneously, the first damping element at the contact section between the fixed rod and the blind hole undergoes shear deformation. The two work together to convert the impact kinetic energy into elastic potential energy and thermal energy. When the edge of the enclosure is impacted, the enclosure rotates around the hinge axis, and the edge of the enclosure presses against the corresponding buffer element. The buffer element undergoes compression deformation to absorb the impact force, effectively preventing damage to the tank from rigid collisions.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: it improves the impact resistance of the condensate tank and effectively avoids direct damage to the tank body from rigid collisions. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0020] Example:

[0021] like Figures 1-4As shown, a protective assembly for a condensate tank includes a surrounding plate 3, which is arranged around the tank body 1 of the condensate tank via a connector 2. The connector 2 includes a fixed rod 4, a movable rod 5, a compression spring 7, and a first damping element 8. The fixed rod 4 is horizontally fixed to the side wall of the tank body 1. One end of the movable rod 5 has a blind hole for installation, and the fixed rod 4 slides through the blind hole. A compression spring 7 is installed inside the blind hole, and the first damping element 8 is installed at the contact section between the fixed rod 4 and the blind hole. A hinge 6 is provided at the end of the movable rod 5 and an arc-shaped surrounding plate 3 is hinged thereto. The surrounding plate 3 is evenly arranged around the outside of the tank body 1. A gap is provided between adjacent surrounding plates 3 to avoid interference, and a vertical strip-shaped buffer element 9 is provided on the side wall of the tank body 1 opposite to the gap.

[0022] Specifically, the first damping element 8 is a rubber ring. The middle part of the enclosure 3 is hinged to the end of the movable rod 5. The hinge axis of the hinge 6 is vertically arranged, and a second damping element 10, which is a rubber pad, is installed in the hinge axis. The buffer element 9 is a buffer foam or a buffer rubber.

[0023] In addition, six enclosure plates 3 are evenly arranged around the circumference of the tank body 1.

[0024] The working principle of this protective component for a condensate tank is as follows: When the middle of the enclosure plate 3 is impacted, the impact force is transmitted through the enclosure plate 3 to the movable rod 5, causing the movable rod 5 to slide axially along the fixed rod 4, compressing the compression spring 7 in the blind hole and generating elastic deformation; simultaneously, the first damping element 8 at the contact section between the fixed rod 4 and the blind hole undergoes shear deformation, and the two work together to convert the impact kinetic energy into elastic potential energy and thermal energy. When the edge of the enclosure plate 3 is impacted, the enclosure plate 3 rotates around the hinge 6 axis, and the edge of the enclosure plate 3 presses against the corresponding buffer element 9, which undergoes compression deformation to absorb the impact force, effectively preventing damage to the tank body 1 from rigid collisions.

Various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present utility model by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present utility model should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
