[0016] 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.

[0017] Please refer to Figure 1-5This utility model discloses an adaptive adjustment mechanism for tank opening connection, including a connecting plate 1. Four guide fixing sleeves 2 are evenly distributed on the connecting plate 1, forming a "square". Each guide fixing sleeve 2 is conical and fixed through the connecting plate 1. The guide fixing sleeve 2 is hollow inside and open at both ends. A guide leveling shaft 3 is movably placed inside each guide fixing sleeve 2. The upper end of the guide leveling shaft 3 is conical, and the lower end is rod-shaped. The upper end of the guide leveling shaft 3 is located inside the guide fixing sleeve 2, allowing it to move up and down within the guide fixing sleeve 2. Simultaneously, the bottom of the guide fixing sleeve 2 limits the bottom of the guide leveling shaft 3, preventing it from descending further after reaching a certain position within the guide fixing sleeve 2. A connecting flange 4 is provided on the lower side of the connecting plate 1. The lower end of the guide leveling shaft 3 passes through the flange hole of the connecting flange 4 and through a hexagonal... Nut 5 and hexagonal thin nut 6 are connected and fixed to the connecting flange 4 through the guide leveling shaft 3. The lower end of the guide leveling shaft 3 is threaded, and the diameter of the upper part of the thread of the guide leveling shaft 3 is larger than the flange hole of the connecting flange 4, so that only the threaded part of the guide leveling shaft 3 can pass through the flange hole of the connecting flange 4. Then, the hexagonal nut 5 and hexagonal thin nut 6 are screwed onto the threaded end of the guide leveling shaft 3 to achieve fixation. An aluminum tube 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting flange 4. The upper end of the connecting flange 4 is a closed structure. A three-way pipe 8 and a reinforcing rib 9 are fixedly connected to the aluminum tube 7. The reinforcing rib 9 is fixedly connected to the three-way pipe 8. A long aluminum tube 10 is fixedly connected to the three-way pipe 8. A guide port 11 is fixedly connected to the long aluminum tube 10. Liquid oil flows out through the guide port 11. The guide leveling shaft 3 drives the connecting flange 4, aluminum tube 7, three-way pipe 8, long aluminum tube 10 and guide port 11 to move as a whole.

[0018] An adjusting seat 12 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 1, and an inductive proximity switch 13 is installed on the adjusting seat 12. An induction plate 14 is set inside the connecting plate 1. During the descent of the sealing cap 20, when the sealing cap 20 is inserted into the can opening to a certain distance, the induction plate 14 senses the position of the can opening and sends a signal. The drive mechanism of the support plate 17 stops driving the support plate 17, and the sealing cap 20 no longer moves. The sealing cap 20 is exactly covering the can opening. The induction plate 14 transmits a signal to the inductive proximity switch 13, and the inductive proximity switch 13 sends a signal to the motor 21. The motor 21 drives the locking tongue 22 to rotate, so that the locking tongue 22 is locked at the bottom of the can opening, thereby achieving the sealing of the sealing cap 20 and the can opening.

[0019] The guide fixing sleeve 2 is fixed to the connecting plate 1 by a nut, which makes it easy to remove the guide fixing sleeve 2 from the connecting plate 1.

[0020] A set of screws 15 are fixedly connected to the connecting plate 1 by nuts. An upper connecting plate 16 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the screws 15 by nuts. A support beam 17 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the upper connecting plate 16. An mounting plate 18 is fixedly connected to the side of the support beam 17. The support beam 17 is mounted on the drive mechanism through the mounting plate 18. The support beam 17 is driven to move. The connecting plate 1 and the upper connecting plate 16 are connected by nuts and screws 15. When the guide leveling shaft 3 moves up to the maximum distance, it is lower than the upper connecting plate 16.

[0021] A bend 19 is connected to the tee pipe 8 via a flange. The bend 19 is connected to the oil delivery arm. The oil phase enters the tee pipe 8 through the oil delivery arm and the bend 19. A sealing cap 20 is fixedly connected to the long aluminum pipe 10. A motor 21 is fixedly connected to the sealing cap 20. The output end of the motor 21 extends to the lower side of the sealing cap 20. The long aluminum pipe 10 drives the sealing cap 20, the motor 21, and the locking tongue 22 to move up and down as a whole. The output end of the motor 21 is fixedly connected to the locking tongue 22. The motor 21 drives the locking tongue 22 to rotate. The sealing cap 20 is inserted into the tank truck opening. Then the locking tongue 22 rotates to fix the sealing cap 20 at the tank opening. This is the existing technical structure and will not be described in detail here.

[0022] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In the initial state, under the gravity of the sealing cap 20, the guide leveling shaft 3 is at the lowest end inside the guide fixing sleeve 2. When the drive mechanism drives the mounting plate 18, the mounting plate 18 drives the support beam 17, the support beam 17 drives the upper connecting plate 16 and the screw 15, the screw 15 drives the connecting plate 1 to move downwards, and the connecting plate 1 drives the connecting flange 4, aluminum pipe 7, tee pipe 8, long aluminum pipe 10 and guide port 11 to move downwards. The guide port 11 first enters the oil tank opening. After the sealing cap 20 contacts the tank opening, due to... The sealing cap 20 is positioned on the can opening 20 and thus the guide leveling shaft 3, connecting flange 4, aluminum tube 7, tee pipe 8, long aluminum tube 10, and flow guide 11 no longer move downwards, while the connecting plate 1 and guide fixing sleeve 2 continue to move downwards. At this time, the guide leveling shaft 3 extends out of the guide fixing sleeve 2. Due to its conical structure, the gap between the guide leveling shaft 3 and the guide fixing sleeve 2 increases, and it can tilt. At this time, the sealing cap 20 can be freely adjusted to fall on the can opening so as to better fit the can opening and achieve a good sealing effect.

[0023] This invention is simple to operate, convenient to use, and suitable for widespread promotion and application. Although embodiments of this invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
