Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a transport tank to be transported with containing a cargo in a transport inner bag, and more specifically, a transport tank having a pressure inner bag for preventing the transport inner bag from moving in a tank body of the transport tank during transportation, and transporting method thereof.
  • a tank container In cargo transportation by sea, railroad, road and so forth, a tank container is generally used for liquid materials (cargo).
  • a 20 foot container (hereinafter referred to as a tank container) which conforms to the ISO Standards is ordinarily used, for example.
  • the tank container has 20 foot length, 8 foot width, and 8 foot height, so that about 20 tons of liquid can be filled therein.
  • Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. S61-104983 discloses that an inner bag or liner bag made of soft synthetic resin to have the chemical resistance is loaded in the tank produced from the general steel plate.
  • Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No.2001-354292, Japanese Utility-Model Laid-Open Publication No.S61-48190, Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No.S50-4615, and Japanese Utility-Model Laid-Open Publication No.S57-46492 also disclose to load the inner bag in the tank in order to save the trouble for washing the inside of the tank.
  • an envelope type inner bag is easily produced only by welding the both ends of the tubular film.
  • This type of inner bag prevents the liquid from directly contacting with the inside of the tank by joining supply-discharge openings of the inner bag and the tank. Therefore, changing the inner bag makes it unnecessary to wash the inside of the tank.
  • the inner bag may move during transportation and the movement varies depending on whether the inner bag is in an approximately fully loaded condition where an amount of the cargo reaches the transport tank volume or it is in a non-fully loaded condition. Namely, if the tank is transported in the non-fully loaded condition, the cargo moves in the inner bag, and at the same time, the inner bag moves in the tank. Consequently, the inner bag may be ruptured, the supply-discharge opening may crack, or the cargo may not be discharged due to twist or inversion of the inner bag. Accordingly, some kind of measure has been required.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a transport tank in which a transport inner bag hardly moves if the transport tank is transported with the transport inner bag which is not fully loaded with a cargo, and a transporting method thereof.
  • At least one second inner bag is disposed between a first inner bag containing a cargo and an inner surface of the tank body.
  • the second inner bag will expand by filling of filler for holding the cargo to prevent the first inner bag from moving in said tank body during transportation.
  • the first and second inner bags are made from a synthetic resin.
  • the cargo is any of gasses, liquids, and powder and granular materials, which is put into the first inner bag after or while pre-filling the filler in the second inner bag.
  • the size of the second inner bag adapts to the amount of the cargo, if the second inner bag has the approximately same size as the tank body, it expands when the cargo is discharged from the first inner bag.
  • the second inner bag will expand by the filler to prevent the first inner bag from moving in the tank body during transportation, so that it is possible to settle such drawbacks as the breakage of the first inner bag due to the movement or the discharge failure of the cargo due to twist or inversion of the cargo during the transportation of the first inner bag which is not fully loaded with the cargo.
  • a specific amount of the filler is preliminarily filled in the second inner bag to arrange the shape of the second inner bag before or while containing the cargo in the first inner bag, so that the folded second inner bag is not sandwiched between the first inner bag and the inner surface of the tank body when the cargo is put into the first inner bag. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the filling failure due to the sandwiched portion at the time of filling the filler in the second inner bag or to prevent the second inner bag from being ruptured.
  • a twenty-foot ISO container 10 is constituted of a tank body 11 and a rectangular parallelepiped frame 12 for holding the tank body 11.
  • a hatch 13 is formed at the top face of the tank body 11. The maintenance and filling of liquid are performed through the hatch 13.
  • a lid 14 is locked by a locking member in order to prevent the lid 14 covering the hatch 13 from opening.
  • a tank supply-discharge opening 15 is formed in one end of a lower portion of the tank body 11.
  • a foot valve 16 is fixed through a flange 15a of the tank supply-discharge opening 15.
  • a transport inner bag 20 is loaded in a lower portion of the tank body 11, while a pressure inner bag 19 is loaded in an upper portion thereof.
  • These inner bags 19, 20 are brought into the tank body 11 from the hatch 13 by an operating person to set in the tank body 11.
  • the transport inner bag 20 upswells in the tank body 11 by pouring the liquid as cargo therein from the tank supply-discharge opening 15 through the foot valve 16, so that the transport inner bag 20 operates as a lining to the tank body 11.
  • the pressure inner bag 19 is filled with air supplied through a filling hose 17 and a filler supply-discharge opening 18, and presses the transport inner bag 20 against the tank body 11, thus, the transport inner bag 20 hardly moves during transportation. As the transport inner bag 20 stands still in the tank body 11 against the movement of the liquid in transporting, the transport inner bag 20 is not ruptured.
  • the transport inner bag 20 is constituted of an inner bag body 21 having an envelope shape and an inner bag supply-discharge opening 22 to be fitted in the tank supply-discharge opening 15. Since the transport inner bag 20 is formed to the envelope shape, the inner bag body 21 can be easily formed as shown in FIGS . 3A - 3D.
  • a tubular film 23 is cut into a predetermined length after being drawn from a film roll 24 which is the roll of the tubular film 23, and then both end portions 23a and 23b of the tubular film 23 are closed by thermally welding or the like (see FIGS. 9A and 9C).
  • a longitudinal cross-sectional surface including a central line CL1 extending in the longitudinal direction of the tank body 11 is referred to as a longitudinal cross-sectional surface in the longitudinal direction
  • a longitudinal cross-sectional surface including a central line CL2 extending in the width direction of the tank body 11 is referred to as a longitudinal cross-sectional surface in the width direction
  • a line CL3 shown in FIG.2B is a central line extending in a height direction of the tank body 11.
  • the tank body 11 is formed to a tubular shape whose both ends are closed to be placed transversally, while the transport inner bag 20 is formed to the envelope shape. Therefore, if the transport inner bag 20 is smaller than the appropriate size corresponding to the size of the tank body 11, a predetermined filling capacity is not ensured. To make matters worse, the smaller inner bag creates a gap between the inner peripheral surface of the tank body 11 and the transport inner bag 20 where the transport inner bag 20 together with the liquid can move to damage the welded portion of the inner bag supply-discharge opening 22 and the welded lines of the both ends of the transport inner bag 20. Whereas, if the transport inner bag 20 is larger than the appropriate size corresponding to the size of the tank body 11, the raw material of the transport inner bag 20 is wasted.
  • the size of the envelope type transport inner bag 20 is limited within a specific range based on the size of the tank body 11 for the purpose of preventing the filling failure and the damage of the transport inner bag 20.
  • the length of the transport inner bag 20 is IL
  • the width thereof is IW
  • the inner peripheral length (first inner peripheral length) of the tank body 11 in the longitudinal cross-sectional surface in the longitudinal direction is TLt
  • the inner peripheral length (second inner peripheral length) of the tank body 11 in the longitudinal cross-sectional surface in the width direction is TLr
  • the following conditions are satisfied: 0.47 ⁇ TLt ⁇ IL ⁇ 0.6 ⁇ TLt; and 0.47 ⁇ TLr ⁇ IW ⁇ 0.6 ⁇ TLr.
  • IL and IW preferably satisfy the following conditions: 0.49 ⁇ TLt ⁇ IL ⁇ 0.55 ⁇ TLt; and 0.49 ⁇ TLr ⁇ IW ⁇ 0.58 ⁇ TLr.
  • the size of the transport inner bag 20 is limited based on the inner peripheral length of the tank body 11, so that the tank body 11 may have different shapes than tube such as an elliptical shape or others.
  • the distance L1 is limited within a range 0.44 ⁇ IW ⁇ L1 ⁇ 0.50 ⁇ IW based on the width IW of the transport inner bag 20, so that it is possible to position the central positions in the longitudinal direction of the tank body 11 and the transport inner bag 20 with each other if the transport inner bag 20 is attached to the tank body 11 with reference to the tank supply-discharge opening 15, which is formed in the end of the lower portion of the tank body 11.
  • the extra portions in both ends of the transport inner bag 20 can be distributed approximately evenly in the tank body 11. Accordingly, the extra portion of the transport inner bag 20 dose not build up on one side to be sandwiched between the tank body 11 and the inner bag body 21, so that the filling failure and the damage of the transport inner bag 20 are eliminated.
  • the pressure inner bag 19 is constituted of an inner bag body 19a having an envelope shape and a filler supply-discharge opening 18.
  • the pressure inner bag 19 is formed into the envelope shape having the same size as the transport inner bag 20 shown in FIG.2, since the liquid as the cargo is not filled in the pressure inner bag 19 unlike the transport inner bag 20, the pressure inner bag 19 has a single-layer structure, and in addition, has the filler supply-discharge opening 18 instead of the inner bag supply-discharge opening 22.
  • the filler supply-discharge opening 18 is constituted of a cylindrical body 18a made of a synthetic resin.
  • a welding flange portion 18b is formed in an end of the filler supply-discharge opening 18, while an attachment female screw 18c is formed in an inner peripheral surface of the other end.
  • a bottom attachment screw 51a of a hose connector 51 having a valve 50 is screwed into the filler supply-discharge opening 18 through the attachment female screw 18c.
  • a hose connection opening 51b and a cap attachment screw 51c are formed above the hose connector 51.
  • the hose connection opening 51b uses a snap type connection to hold the end of the hose removably.
  • the valve 50 is closed by rotating a handle 50a at the time of removing the filling hose 17 from the hose connector 51. After removing the filling hose 17, a cap 52 is fitted in the cap attachment screw 51c.
  • a screw type of the hose connection opening may be used instead of the snap type.
  • the pressure inner bag 19 may be formed in a multilayer structure to have two or more layers.
  • the tubular film 23 is drawn from the film roll 24 to be put on a work table 25, and then cut into the length IL by a cutter 26 or the like.
  • the tubular film 23 is made from LLDPE (linear low density polyethylene), and wound into a roll shape to be stored. Since the transport inner bag 20 is doubled in the present embodiment, it is necessary to form the two tubular films 23 by cutting the tubular film 23 twice into the length IL.
  • the thickness of a single layer of the tubular film 23 is 120 ⁇ m. Since the tubular film 23 of the present embodiment has two layers, the entire thickness of the tubular film 23 is 240 ⁇ m.
  • the thickness of the film is preferably 80 - 500 ⁇ m, especially 100 - 300 ⁇ m.
  • FIG.3C in doubling the tubular film 23, one tubular film is inserted into another tubular film. Subsequently, as shown in FIG.3D, a hole 27 corresponding to the inner bag supply-discharge opening 22 is opened on only the upper two layers of films by a punch or a cutter.
  • the inner bag supply-discharge opening 22 is constituted of a supply-discharge mouth 22a having a truncated conical and cylindrical shape, a welding flange 22b and an attachment flange 22c which are attached to both the ends of the supply-discharge mouth 22a, and integrally formed by using LLDPE for example.
  • the welding flange 22b and the inner bag body 21 are thermally welded by a thermal welding apparatus (not shown) to form welding lines 28 and 29.
  • the attachment flange 22c protrudes outside the flange 15a of the tank supply-discharge opening 15 to be fixed firmly to the flange 15a.
  • an attachment flange 30a of an inner bag suction preventing member 30 and the foot valve 16 are attached to the flange 15a of the tank supply-discharge opening 15, so that the inner bag supply-discharge opening 22 is attached firmly to the tank supply-discharge opening 15.
  • the supply-discharge mouth 22a is formed along the inner peripheral surface of the tank supply-discharge opening 15.
  • the thermally welding apparatus 33 is constituted of a receiving stage 33a and a welding head 33b. The heat is applied to the end portion 23a, which is held by the welding head 33b and the receiving stage 33a after the welding head 33b has been moved down.
  • thermal welding lines 35a and 35b of 5 mm in width are formed linearly at an interval of 5-10mm.
  • one or three or more thermal welding lines may be formed.
  • a corrugated thermal welding line may be applied to the present embodiment instead of the linear one. If the plural thermal welding lines are formed, all lines may be formed together, or each line may be formed one by one.
  • a thermal welding line 36a is formed by welding the one end portion of the inner tubular film 23 into two layer, and then a thermal welding line 36b is formed by welding the one end portion of both the inner and outer tubular films 23 into four layer. The thermal welding line 36b is positioned outside the thermal welding line 36a.
  • thermal welding lines 37a and 37b are formed by welding each end portion of the tubular film 23 into two layer separately wherein the inner tubular film is slightly shorter in length than the outer one.
  • the thermal welding line may be welded at a time, if the length of the welding head 33b is limited, the thermal welding line may be welded sequentially every length of the welding head 33b.
  • ultrasonic welding or other welding method may be applied to the present embodiment instead of the thermal welding by using the heat-sealing type thermal welding apparatus 33.
  • a pressing roller 38 is rotated on the work table 25 from the welded end portion 23a toward the other end portion 23b to vent air 39 in the doubled tubular film 23.
  • the air may be vented by folding the inner bag body 21 from one end side to the other end side. Since the inner bag supply-discharge opening 22 is attached close to the other end portion 23b so as to protrude from the inner bag body 21, the air between the inner bag supply-discharge opening 22 and the other end portion 23b is vented by using a small roller for avoiding the supply-discharge opening 22.

  • the air may be filled by connecting a cartridge directly instead of using the filling hose.
  • gasses not only gasses but also liquids such as water or powder and granular materials made of a synthetic resin foam may be used as the filler.
  • the cargo is not limited to only the liquids, but powdery or granular cargo may be applied to the present embodiment.
  • the back pressure may be applied to the cargo by expanding the pressure inner bag, which has the approximately same capacity as the tank body, when the cargo is discharged from the tank body. Thereby, the cargo having high viscosity can be discharged smoothly and rapidly.
