Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of support technology, specifically to a maintenance support for LNG refueling station storage tanks. Background Technology

[0002] The main function of the LNG refueling station storage tank maintenance support is to bear the weight. The storage tank itself is quite heavy, so a sturdy support is used to support its weight to prevent deformation or damage caused by excessive weight. The design and material selection of the support have undergone strict calculation and testing. The support is fixed to the ground with anchor bolts to ensure that the storage tank can be stably supported during transportation, maintenance or emergency, and to prevent overturning or sliding.

[0003] When using existing LNG refueling station storage tank maintenance supports, their function is to provide auxiliary support for the storage tanks. However, the existing maintenance supports do not have a limiting structure for the storage tanks, which can easily lead to tank displacement. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a maintenance support for LNG refueling station storage tanks, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the existing maintenance supports, when supporting the storage tanks, are prone to displacement because they do not have a limiting structure for the storage tanks.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a maintenance support for an LNG refueling station storage tank, comprising:

[0006] The bracket body includes a support base, and a support frame is connected to the top of the support base.

[0008] Preferably, the top surface of the positioning frame has through slots on both sides, and the adjusting screw is inserted into the through slots of the positioning frame and slidably connected to the positioning frame.

[0009] Preferably, the positioning frame and the limiting plate are hinged together by an adjusting screw, and the adjusting screw and the nut are connected by a thread.

[0010] Preferably, the top surface of the limiting sleeve is provided with a threaded groove, and the bottom end of the adjusting screw is rotatably connected to the inside of the threaded groove provided in the limiting sleeve.

[0011] Preferably, the positioning frame is connected to an adjustment mechanism on both sides. The adjustment mechanism includes a fixing ring, a support spring is connected to one side of the inner surface of the fixing ring, a limit rod is connected to one end of the support spring, and a control rod is connected to one end of the limit rod.

[0012] Preferably, the positioning frame has through holes on both sides, the support frame is inserted into the through holes of the positioning frame, and the fixing ring and the limiting rod are elastically supported by a support spring.

[0013] Preferably, a slot is provided on one side of the inner wall of the through hole of the positioning frame, and multiple sets of limiting slots are provided on both sides of the support frame. One end of the limiting rod passes through the slot of the positioning frame and is inserted into the limiting slot of the support frame.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. After inserting the storage tank into the positioning frame, rotate the angle of the limiting plate and move the limiting plate so that the adjusting screw moves inside the through slot of the positioning frame, thereby limiting the movement of the limiting plate. The limiting plate, together with the positioning frame, clamps and positions the storage tank. Then, rotate the angle of the nut so that it is tightly against the bottom surface of the positioning frame, limiting the movement of the adjusting screw. Finally, rotate the limiting sleeve to the outer surface of the bottom end of the adjusting screw to limit the movement of the nut, thereby achieving the limiting effect on the storage tank and preventing the storage tank from shifting.

[0016] 2. Position the support frame through the through hole in the positioning frame, allowing the positioning frame to slide on the outer wall of the support frame. When moving the positioning frame, pull the control rod, which will cause the limit rod to compress the support spring and retract, thereby moving the limit rod into the fixed ring. After moving the positioning frame to the desired height, release the control rod, allowing the limit rod to be inserted into the limit groove in the positioning frame, thus achieving the height adjustment of the positioning frame.

[0023] 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.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 One embodiment provided by this utility model:

[0025] A maintenance bracket for an LNG refueling station storage tank includes:

[0026] The bracket body 1 includes a support base 11, and a support frame 12 is connected to the top of the support base 11. The internal material of the support frame 12 is existing technology and can be purchased on the market. It is not considered as a technical protection point of this application, so no further details are made.

[0027] The inner surface of the support frame 12 is provided with a limiting structure 2, which includes a positioning frame 21. Adjusting screws 22 are inserted inside the top two sides of the positioning frame 21. The top of the adjusting screws 22 is connected to a limiting plate 23. A nut 24 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the adjusting screws 22. A limiting sleeve 25 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the bottom end of the adjusting screws 22.

[0028] Furthermore, through slots are provided on both sides of the top surface of the positioning frame 21. The adjusting screw 22 is inserted into the through slots of the positioning frame 21 and is slidably connected to the positioning frame 21, so as to position the adjusting screw 22 through the through slots of the positioning frame 21, thereby limiting the movement of the limiting plate 23.

[0029] Furthermore, the positioning frame 21 and the limiting plate 23 are hinged together by the adjusting screw 22, and the adjusting screw 22 and the nut 24 are connected by threads, so that the adjusting screw 22 and the nut 24 are connected by threads, thereby limiting the position of the adjusting screw 22 by the nut 24.

[0030] Furthermore, the top surface of the limiting sleeve 25 is provided with a threaded groove, and the bottom end of the adjusting screw 22 is rotatably connected to the inside of the threaded groove of the limiting sleeve 25, so as to limit the bottom end of the adjusting screw 22 through the threaded groove of the limiting sleeve 25, thereby using the limiting sleeve 25 to restrict the movement of the nut 24.

[0031] Furthermore, the positioning frame 21 is connected to both sides of the adjustment mechanism 3. The adjustment mechanism 3 includes a fixing ring 31. A support spring 32 is connected to one side of the inner surface of the fixing ring 31. One end of the support spring 32 is connected to a limit rod 33. One end of the limit rod 33 is connected to a control rod 34. The height of the positioning frame 21 can be adjusted by inserting the limit rod 33 into the limit groove opened in the positioning frame 21.

[0032] Furthermore, the positioning frame 21 has through holes on both sides, and the support frame 12 is inserted into the through holes of the positioning frame 21. The fixing ring 31 and the limiting rod 33 are elastically supported by the support spring 32, so that the limiting rod 33 is elastically supported by the support spring 32, thereby limiting the limiting rod 33.

[0033] Furthermore, a slot is provided on one side of the inner wall of the through hole of the positioning frame 21, and multiple sets of limiting slots are provided on both sides of the support frame 12. One end of the limiting rod 33 passes through the slot of the positioning frame 21 and is inserted into the limiting slot of the support frame 12, so as to position the limiting rod 33 through the slot of the positioning frame 21 and the limiting slot of the support frame 12.

[0034] Working principle: When limiting the position of the LNG refueling station storage tank maintenance bracket, after the storage tank is inserted into the positioning frame 21, the angle of the limiting plate 23 is rotated and the limiting plate 23 is moved, so that the adjusting screw 22 moves inside the through groove opened in the positioning frame 21, thereby limiting the movement of the limiting plate 23. Thus, the limiting plate 23, together with the positioning frame 21, clamps and positions the storage tank. Then, the angle of the nut 24 is rotated so that it is tightly attached to the bottom surface of the positioning frame 21, limiting the adjustment screw 22. The limiting sleeve 25 is rotatably connected to the bottom outer surface of the adjusting screw 22, limiting the movement of the nut 24, thereby achieving the limiting effect of the storage tank.

[0035] When adjusting the maintenance bracket of the LNG refueling station storage tank, the support frame 12 is positioned through the through hole of the positioning frame 21, so that the positioning frame 21 can slide on the outer wall of the support frame 12. When the positioning frame 21 is moved, the control rod 34 is pulled, which causes the limiting rod 33 to compress the support spring 32 and retract, thereby moving the limiting rod 33 into the fixing ring 31. After the height of the positioning frame 21 is moved, the control rod 34 is released, so that the limiting rod 33 is inserted into the limiting groove of the positioning frame 21, thereby realizing the height adjustment of the positioning frame 21.

[0036] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
