Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to a tank inspection device for detecting oil inside a tanker truck. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the internal condition inspection of oil tankers before and after loading and unloading is becoming increasingly stringent. Operators are required to confirm whether there is residual moisture, impurities, or abnormal gas inside the tank, and to observe the integrity of key components such as the tank walls, bottom valves, and manhole seals. Traditional methods generally involve manually climbing into the tank, opening the lid, and visually inspecting with handheld spotlights or simple periscopes. However, the small diameter of the tank opening, the sealed internal space, and the high concentration of residual oil and gas make it extremely easy for personnel to climb and enter the tank, leading to safety accidents such as poisoning, falls, and explosions. Furthermore, this method is inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0014] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0015] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the system includes a main crossbeam 1, with slide rail grooves 2 extending along its length on both sides; each slide rail groove 2 has a sliding component, which includes two rollers 3 and a transmission belt 4 connecting the rollers 3, the rollers 3 being linked by the transmission belt 4; a drive system including a drive motor 5 and a transmission shaft 6, the drive motor 5 driving the sliding component to move through the transmission shaft 6; a moving platform 7, mounted on the sliding component, which can move horizontally along the main crossbeam 1 with the sliding component; and a lifting mechanism, mounted on the moving platform 7, with a detection component connected to its lower end, used to vertically lower the detection component into the tank truck for detection when the moving platform 7 moves directly above the tank opening. The output shaft of the drive motor 5 is rigidly connected to the transmission shaft 6. The transmission shaft 6 is simultaneously inserted into the center of the two rollers 3. The two rollers 3 roll purely in the slide rail groove 2. The belt is kept synchronously tensioned, so that the moving platform 7 is pulled by four-point positioning to the vertical position above the oil tank opening of the oil tanker. The camera module 12 and the lighting module 13 are pushed into the oil tanker through the electric push rod 14 to detect the inside of the oil tanker. After the signal is converted, it is sent to the display terminal for decoding and playback in real time through the cable. The oil tanker can be inspected in time without manual entry, which improves the overall work efficiency.

[0016] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, several extension brackets 8 are provided above the main crossbeam 1. Cable rails 9 are provided on the extension brackets 8, and slidable cable suspension members 10 are provided within the cable rails 9 to support the cables connecting the control box 11 and the detection component, ensuring stable power and signal transmission. The base of the extension brackets 8 is secured to the upper surface of the main crossbeam 1 with T-bolts, and the cantilever length is calculated based on the cable sag arc. The detection component includes a camera module 12 and an illumination module 13, used to acquire image information inside the tanker truck. The camera module 12 can use an M12 interface, a 5 MP glass and plastic hybrid lens, and a lens with a 120-degree field of view. The illumination module 13 consists of multiple LED beads evenly distributed in a ring around the lens, coaxial with the lens optical axis, and designed to eliminate central shadows. The specific image information transmission principles of the camera module 12 and illumination module 13 are existing technologies and not the main innovation, and will not be elaborated upon here. The lifting mechanism is an electric push rod 14, the cable rail 9 is a linear slide rail, and the cable suspension 10 is a pulley structure that can slide synchronously with the movement of the moving platform 7. One end of the drive shaft 6 is inserted into the roller 3, and the other end passes through the moving platform 7 and is connected to the output end of the drive motor 5. A support plate 15 is provided on one side of the moving platform 7, and the drive motor 5 is mounted on the support plate 15.

The tanker truck reverses to the side of the loading and unloading platform in one go, the drive motor 5 is powered on, and the output shaft drives the rollers 3 on both sides through the transmission shaft 6. The sliding component rolls purely in the slide rail groove 2. The moving platform 7 carries the electric push rod 14, the detection component, and the control box 11 and moves horizontally together until it reaches directly above the tank opening. The drive motor 5 is powered off and the brake is engaged, and the horizontal positioning is completed. During the movement of the moving platform 7, the pulley cable suspension component 10 in the linear slide rail on the extension bracket 8 is pulled synchronously by the cable. The cable always maintains the catenary state. The electric push rod 14 pushes the detection component into the tanker truck. The control box 11 outputs a signal to the lighting module 13 through the same integrated cable. The camera module 12 automatically exposes and white balances the signal before outputting a video stream, which is then decoded and displayed in real time by the encoded carrier wave to the control box 11.

[0018] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
