Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil recovery technology for loading arms, and specifically discloses an oil recovery device for loading arms. Background Technology
[0002] The main methods of transporting oil include pipeline transportation, waterway transportation, rail transportation, and road transportation. Road transportation, as one of the important modes of transporting oil and its products, is characterized by its fast turnaround time and flexibility. It is particularly suitable for short-distance, small-batch oil transportation and for oil transport to areas without rail or waterway transportation options.
[0003] Loading arms, specialized equipment for loading and unloading oil from tank trucks, are telescopic and movable pipes primarily used for loading and unloading liquid media in truck tankers, rail tankers, or tank ships. They consist of components such as rotary joints, inner arms, outer arms, vertical pipes, three-dimensional joints, balancers, and control systems, enabling the transfer of liquid media between trains / tank trucks and storage / transport pipelines on trestle bridges. Compared to older flexible hose connections, loading arms utilize rigid connections, offering greater safety and effectively preventing pipe bursts and breakages.
[0004] In existing technologies, after the loading arm completes its operation, oil residue often remains on the inner wall of the vertical pipe. This residual oil easily drips when the loading arm is retracted, affecting not only the cleanliness of the loading platform and the vehicle but also potentially causing environmental pollution. Traditional methods of handling residual oil require operators to use both hands throughout the process, lifting the end of the loading arm to a certain height from the tanker truck, placing it into an oil drum for collection, and finally returning the loading arm to the loading platform. During this process, residual oil continues to drip from the loading arm before it is placed into the oil drum, resulting in waste and affecting the cleanliness of the loading platform and the vehicle. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an oil recovery device for loading arms, which solves the problem that residual oil still drips before the loading arms are placed into the oil drum, causing waste and affecting the cleanliness of the loading platform and vehicle.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0007] An oil recovery device for loading arms includes an oil collection trough mounted on a rotating mechanism. The rotating mechanism is used to position the oil collection trough at the loading arm port or outside the loading arm port. The rotating mechanism is mounted on a fixing mechanism, which is fixedly mounted on the loading arm. In use, the fixing mechanism is fixed to the loading arm, and the rotating mechanism moves the oil collection trough between the loading arm port and the outside of the loading arm port. This facilitates the timely collection of residual oil after the loading arm operation is completed, avoids interference from the oil collection trough during loading arm operation, reduces waste, and prevents residual oil dripping from affecting the cleanliness of the loading arm and vehicle.
[0008] Preferably, the fixing mechanism includes two pipe clamps spaced apart vertically; a fixing plate is provided on the outer wall of the pipe clamps; the two pipe clamps are fixedly connected by a sliding rod; a rotating mechanism is provided on the sliding rod; two sliding rods are arranged side by side; the sliding rods are fixedly mounted on the fixing plate. The arrangement of the two pipe clamps and the sliding rod ensures that the fixing mechanism is firmly installed on the loading arm.
[0009] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes a sliding seat; a slider is fixedly mounted on the sliding seat; the slider is slidably mounted on two sliding rods; a support rod is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the sliding seat; an oil collecting trough is hinged to the end of the support rod away from the sliding seat; the oil collecting trough is connected to the sliding seat through a connecting rod assembly. The oil collecting trough can be driven by the connecting rod assembly to rotate around the hinge point with the support rod, realizing the movement of the oil collecting trough between the loading arm port and the outside of the loading arm port.
[0010] Preferably, two connecting rod assemblies are provided; the connecting rod assembly is located on one side of the sliding seat; the connecting rod assembly includes a first connecting rod; one end of the first connecting rod is hinged to the side wall of the sliding seat; the other end of the first connecting rod is hinged to a second connecting rod; the end of the second connecting rod away from the first connecting rod is hinged to an oil collection groove; the sum of the lengths of the first and second connecting rods is greater than the length of the support rod. The first connecting rod drives the second connecting rod to move, causing the oil collection groove to rotate around its hinge point with the support rod.
[0011] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to connecting rod one; the handle connects connecting rod one of the two connecting rod assemblies. Holding the handle causes connecting rod one to rotate, which in turn causes connecting rod two to move, thereby causing the oil collection tank to rotate.
[0012] Preferably, a limiting platform is provided on the sliding seat in conjunction with the connecting rod; a boss is provided on the connecting rod. The limiting platform and the boss can limit the arc of rotation of the connecting rod around its hinge point with the sliding seat, limit the position of the handle, and facilitate operation.
[0013] Preferably, a support is fixedly installed on the side wall of the oil collection tank; the support rod is hinged to the middle of the support; and the connecting rod is hinged to the end of the support away from the oil collection tank. This facilitates the connecting rod assembly to drive the oil collection tank to rotate around the hinge point between it and the support.
[0014] Preferably, the rotating mechanism further includes a locking assembly; the locking assembly includes a fixing rod and a locking pin; the fixing rod is threaded onto the fixing plate of the upper clamp. The fixing rod has a notch; the locking pin is slidably mounted on the sliding seat; the center line of the locking pin is perpendicular to the center line of the fixing rod; the end of the locking pin has a bevel that mates with the notch. The locking pin can be inserted into the notch of the fixing rod to fix the position of the sliding seat, thereby fixing the position of the oil collection tank. The fixing rod, mounted on the fixing plate of the upper clamp, can fix the oil collection tank to the outside of the loading arm port, avoiding interference with the loading arm operation.
[0015] Preferably, the locking pin passes through the sliding seat; a circular platform is provided on the locking pin; a spring is provided between the circular platform and the sliding seat; the spring is sleeved on the locking pin; a keycap is provided at the end of the locking pin away from the inclined surface. The spring force can be used to press the locking pin tightly against the notch of the fixing rod, ensuring the stability of the locking and the stability of the oil collection tank.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When in use, the fixing mechanism is fixed on the loading arm, and the rotating mechanism drives the oil collection trough to move between the loading arm port and the outside of the loading arm port. This makes it convenient to collect residual oil in time when the loading arm is finished, and avoids the oil collection trough interfering with the loading arm operation, reducing waste and avoiding the impact of residual oil dripping on the loading platform and vehicle cleanliness.
