Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tools and equipment technology, specifically to a waste lubricating oil receiving device for a compressor unit. Background Technology

[0002] Compressor units are key equipment in natural gas pipeline systems. Routine maintenance of compressor units is the foundation for ensuring their normal operation. Among the routine maintenance of compressor units, regular replacement of the lubricating oil is a common maintenance measure. The waste lubricating oil that is replaced must be recovered and measured as hazardous waste to avoid environmental pollution at the mining and transportation site.

[0003] However, existing natural gas pipeline systems do not have dedicated waste lubricating oil recovery pipelines for their compressor units. Waste lubricating oil is usually collected manually by placing conventional water buckets. However, waste lubricating oil often contains gas, which can easily impact the collection buckets, causing them to tip over and creating an environmental pollution risk. At the same time, the water buckets cannot accurately measure and recover the amount of waste lubricating oil. When the waste lubricating oil collected in the water buckets is transferred to metering devices or other containers, it is easy for it to drip or spill onto the ground, further increasing the risk of environmental pollution. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the inability of existing natural gas pipeline compressor units to safely measure and recycle waste lubricating oil, which poses an environmental pollution risk, and to provide a waste lubricating oil receiving device for compressor units.

[0005] This utility model provides a waste lubricating oil receiving device for a compressor unit, comprising: A collection container, the top of which is connected to a pipe joint, and the side wall of which is connected to an oil drain pipe, the outlet side of which is higher than the top surface of the collection container; The adapter pipe has one end detachably connected to the pipe joint and the other end detachably connected to the waste lubricating oil tank of the compressor unit. The adapter pipe is equipped with a control valve.

[0006] This utility model discloses a waste lubricating oil receiving device for a compressor unit. It connects the waste lubricating oil tank and a collection container via a transfer pipe, enabling safe collection of waste lubricating oil and preventing its leakage and environmental pollution. By adjusting the opening and closing of the control valve, the connection or disconnection between the waste lubricating oil tank and the collection container can be controlled, allowing for manual control of the waste lubricating oil discharge process and improving the safety of the collection operation. Simultaneously, the guiding effect of the drain pipe facilitates the easy output of the collected waste lubricating oil, preventing leakage and pollution during the transfer of the waste lubricating oil to the container.

[0007] Preferably, the transfer pipe includes a flexible pipe, a connecting pipe, and a turning pipe connected in sequence. One end of the flexible pipe is equipped with an adapter, which is detachably connected to the pipe connector. The turning pipe is detachably connected to the waste lubricating oil tank of the compressor unit. The control valve is located on the connecting pipe. The flexible pipe, through its inherent flexibility, allows for positional matching between the collection container and the transfer pipe, facilitating the connection of the collection container. The turning pipe, through its channel turning characteristics, changes the flow direction of the waste lubricating oil, preventing the introduction of gaseous waste lubricating oil that could impact the collection container and ensuring the safe collection of the waste lubricating oil.

[0008] Preferably, the flexible tube and the connecting tube are detachably connected via a quick connector, enabling quick connection and separation of the flexible tube and the connecting tube.

[0009] Preferably, the steering pipe includes a first channel and a second channel that are perpendicular to each other, and the first channel and the second channel are connected by an arc transition. The connecting pipe and the steering pipe are arranged on the same plane. The steering pipe can prevent waste lubricating oil mixed with gas from impacting the collection container through the steering characteristics of the first channel and the second channel, ensuring the safe collection of waste lubricating oil. By arranging the connecting pipe and the steering pipe on the same plane, the waste lubricating oil is conveyed after being turned on the plane.

[0010] Preferably, the oil drain pipe includes a first pipe section and a second pipe section, wherein the angle between the first pipe section and the collection container is less than 90°, and the second pipe section is arranged laterally. This prevents waste lubricating oil in the collection container from easily overflowing.

[0011] Preferably, a guide plate is provided at the end of the second pipe section. When waste lubricating oil is discharged through the oil drain pipe, the guide plate can guide the waste lubricating oil and improve the safety of the output.

[0012] Preferably, a flow guiding space is provided on one side of the collection container, and the longitudinal section of the flow guiding space gradually decreases from the inside to the outside. The oil drain pipe is connected to the end of the flow guiding space with the smaller longitudinal section. This allows the waste lubricating oil to be smoothly discharged from the oil drain pipe.

[0013] Preferably, the pipe joint is equipped with a cap. This allows the collection container to seal the top pipe joint with the cap, improving the safety of the collection and transfer process.

[0014] Preferably, the collection container is equipped with a handle to facilitate the safe transfer of the collection container.

[0015] Preferably, the collection container is equipped with a liquid level metering mechanism to achieve visual metering of waste lubricating oil.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1.

By adjusting the opening and closing state of the control valve, the connection or disconnection control between the waste lubricating oil tank and the collection container can be realized, thereby realizing manual control of the waste lubricating oil discharge process and improving the safety of the collection operation. 3. This utility model provides a waste lubricating oil receiving device for a compressor unit. Through the guiding effect of the oil drain pipe, the collected waste lubricating oil can be easily discharged, avoiding the leakage and pollution caused by the waste lubricating oil during the transfer of the container.

[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. However, it should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention to the following embodiments; all technologies implemented based on the content of the present invention fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0026] Unless otherwise specified, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "center," "inner," and "outer" used in the description of specific embodiments of this utility model to indicate orientation or positional relationships are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship in which the utility model product / equipment / device is usually placed during use. These terms are merely for the purpose of facilitating the description of the utility model solution or simplifying the description in specific embodiments, and for enabling those skilled in the art to quickly understand the solution, and do not indicate or imply that a specific device / component / element must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific positional relationship. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0027] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," "suspended," "parallel," and "coaxial" does not imply that the corresponding device / component / element must be absolutely horizontal, vertical, suspended, parallel, or coaxial. Slight tilt or deviation is permissible, as long as it does not affect the normal function of the relevant component. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal relative to "vertical," not that the structure must be perfectly horizontal; a slight tilt is acceptable. "Coaxial" means that two components are arranged as coaxially as possible, allowing them to move coaxially or approximately coaxially when their relative positions change. Alternatively, it can be simplified to mean that the corresponding device / component / element, when arranged in "horizontal," "vertical," "suspended," "parallel," or "coaxial" directions, can have an error / deviation of ±10% relative to the corresponding direction, more preferably within ±8%, more preferably within ±6%, more preferably within ±5%, and more preferably within ±4%. For example, the deviation in the "coaxial" direction is controlled within 0.2-1mm, preferably within 0.2-0.5mm. As long as the corresponding device / component / element is within the error / deviation range, it can still achieve its function in the present invention.

[0028] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first," "second," and "third" in terminology is merely for distinguishing descriptions of identical or similar components and should not be interpreted as emphasizing or implying the relative importance of a particular component.

[0029] Furthermore, in the description of the embodiments of this utility model, "several", "multiple", and "several" represent at least two. The number can be any number, such as two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine, and can even exceed nine.

[0030] Furthermore, in the description of the technical solution of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified / limited / restricted, the terms "set up," "install," "connect," "link," "provided with," "laid out," and "arranged" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to common connection methods in the art, such as welding, riveting, bolting, and threaded connections. Such connections can be mechanical, electrical, or communication connections; they can be direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components.

[0031] Example 1 like Figures 1-7 As shown, a waste lubricating oil receiving device for a compressor unit includes a collection container 1 and a transfer pipe 4. A pipe joint 2 is connected to the top of the collection container 1, and an oil drain pipe 3 is connected to the side wall of the collection container 1. The outlet side of the oil drain pipe 3 is higher than the top surface of the collection container 1. One end of the transfer pipe 4 is detachably connected to the pipe joint 2, and the other end is detachably connected to the waste lubricating oil tank of the compressor unit. A control valve 41 is provided on the transfer pipe 4.

[0032] The collection container 1 is used to collect waste lubricating oil through its internal cavity. The top of the collection container 1 is equipped with a pipe joint 2 for detachable connection with the transfer pipe 4, and the side wall is equipped with an oil drain pipe 3 for guiding the waste lubricating oil in the collection container 1 out. The transfer pipe 4 is used to connect the collection container 1 and the waste lubricating oil tank of the compressor unit. When the control valve 41 is opened, the waste lubricating oil flows into the collection container 1 for collection.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, the collection container 1 can be a barrel-shaped structure with a closed top and only one opening, the pipe connector 2. The cross-section of the collection container 1 can be any shape, such as rectangular or elliptical. Figure 3 As shown, the cross-section of the collection container 1 is elliptical, which makes it less likely for dead corners to appear inside the collection container 1, and prevents waste lubricating oil from accumulating when it is poured out.

[0034] In optional implementations, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a flow guiding space 11 can be provided on one side of the collection container 1. The flow guiding space 11 can be a space formed by a partial outward protrusion of the side wall of the collection container 1 or by an externally connected protruding pipe. The flow guiding space 11 is connected to the inner cavity of the collection container 1. The longitudinal section of the flow guiding space 11 gradually decreases from the inside to the outside of the collection container 1. The oil drain pipe 3 is connected to the end of the flow guiding space 11 with the smaller longitudinal section. That is, the oil drain pipe 3 connects to the side of the flow guiding space 11 away from the collection container 1, which plays a role in converging and guiding the waste lubricating oil, so that the waste lubricating oil can be smoothly output from the oil drain pipe 3.

[0035] In an optional embodiment, the pipe connector 2 may be equipped with a cap 5. This allows the collection container 1 to seal the top pipe connector 2 through the cap 5, improving the safety of use during the easy transfer process.

[0036] In an optional implementation, the collection container 1 may be equipped with a handle 6 to facilitate the safe transfer of the collection container 1.

[0037] In an optional embodiment, the collection container 1 may be equipped with a liquid level metering mechanism 7 to achieve visual metering of waste lubricating oil.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, the liquid level measuring mechanism 7 may be a connecting pipe type liquid level gauge.

[0039] In one or more implementations, such as Figures 4-6 As shown, the transfer pipe 4 may include a flexible pipe 42, a connecting pipe 43 and a turning pipe 44 connected in sequence. One end of the flexible pipe 42 is provided with an adapter 45, which is detachably connected to the pipe connector 2. The turning pipe 44 can be detachably connected to the waste lubricating oil tank of the compressor unit. The control valve 41 is provided in the connecting pipe 43.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, the flexible tube 42 can be a metal corrugated pipe. An internal threaded connector is provided at one end of the flexible tube 42, which can be threadedly connected to the external threaded pipe connector 2 provided on the top of the collection container 1. In use, the flexible tube 42 can achieve position matching between the collection container 1 and the transfer pipe 4 through its own flexible characteristics, which facilitates the connection of the collection container 1.

[0041] In an optional embodiment, the diverting pipe 44 can be a steel pipe capable of fluid diversion. The diverting pipe 44 can change the flow direction of waste lubricating oil through its channel diversion characteristics, avoiding the direct impact of waste lubricating oil mixed with gas on the collection container 1, and ensuring the safe collection of waste lubricating oil.

[0042] In an optional embodiment, the steering pipe 44 may include a first channel 441 and a second channel 442 that are perpendicular to each other, with the first channel 441 and the second channel 442 connected by an arc transition, and the connecting pipe 43 and the steering pipe 44 are located on the same plane.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, the connecting pipe 43 is used to transition between the flexible pipe 42 and the turning pipe 44. The connecting pipe 43 can be a conventional steel pipe. A control valve 41 can be installed on the connecting pipe 43. By adjusting the control valve 41, the on / off control of the transfer pipe 4 can be realized, thereby realizing the output or cut-off of waste lubricating oil.

[0044] In an alternative implementation, the control valve 41 may be a manual ball valve.

[0045] In an optional embodiment, the flexible tube 42 and the connecting tube 43 can be detachably connected by a quick connector 46, which enables quick connection and separation of the flexible tube 42 and the connecting tube 43, improving operational convenience.

[0046] In one or more implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, the oil drain pipe 3 may include a first pipe section 31 and a second pipe section 32. The angle between the first pipe section 31 and the collection container 1 is less than 90°. That is, the first pipe section 31 extends upward at an angle to the top of the collection container 1 and then connects to the horizontally arranged second pipe section 32. The second pipe section 32 is shorter than the first pipe section 31 and is used to cooperate with other collection containers 1. The cross-sectional area of ​​the oil drain pipe 3 is set to be smaller than that of the collection container 1, so that the waste lubricating oil in the collection container 1 can be stably output along the oil drain pipe 3 and is not easy to overflow when the container is transferred.

[0047] In an optional embodiment, a guide plate 33 may be provided at the end of the second pipe section 32. The guide plate 33 may be formed by a partial cut at the end of the second pipe section 32. The guide plate 33 is used to guide the waste lubricating oil output along the oil drain pipe 3 to improve output safety.

[0048] This embodiment provides a waste lubricating oil receiving device for a compressor unit. A transfer pipe 4 connects the waste lubricating oil tank and the collection container 1 of the compressor unit, enabling safe collection of waste lubricating oil and preventing its leakage and environmental pollution. By adjusting the opening and closing state of the control valve 41, the connection or disconnection between the waste lubricating oil tank and the collection container 1 can be controlled, allowing for manual control of the waste lubricating oil discharge process and improving the safety of the collection operation. Simultaneously, the guiding effect of the drain pipe 3 facilitates the easy output of the collected waste lubricating oil, preventing leakage and pollution during the transfer of the waste lubricating oil to the container.

[0049] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
