Description

The utility model relates to the field of pipeline transport and can be used to transport goods in containers through pipelines.

When container transporting through pipelines, container indicators such as the ability to place various forms of cargo in the container (long or packaged), the comparability of the container length with the lengths of medium-sized car bodies, minimizing friction losses when the container moves along the pipeline, minimizing center displacement are important the severity of the cargo in the container during transportation through the pipeline.

When considering the technical literature, a number of technical solutions were identified related to containers for transporting goods through a container pipeline.

A well-known container for pipeline transport, comprising a housing with a loading hole, a curved cover made sliding on the container body until it stops, guides for the cover mounted on the inner spherical wall of the container body, the cover and the container body are made with the same curvature of the spherical surface (utility model patent RU 150690, class B65G 51/04, publ. 06/03/2014).

The disadvantages of this container are:

- the inability to transport long loads (up to 5 m long) due to the spherical shape of the container;

- the inability to fix the center of gravity of the cargo placed in the container;

- large friction losses when the container moves along the pipeline.

A well-known container for pipeline transport, containing a cylindrical body with end loading holes and covers, inner annular protrusions, a shock-absorbing element in the form of a ball made of elastic material (certificate of invention SU 844512, class B65G 51/06, publ. 07.07.1981 g .).

The disadvantages of this container are:

- the inability to fix the transverse position of the center of gravity of the cargo placed in the container;

- the absence of rolling elements (sliding), which leads to large friction losses during movement of the container through the pipeline;

- the difficulty of loading into a container and unloading goods in a package.

Closest to the claimed utility model is a container for transporting goods through pipelines of pneumatic conveying systems, comprising a cylindrical body supported by trunnions on wheeled carts with a lid mounted on a shell of a cylindrical container body, the lid is made sliding on the container body and rotated around the trunnions with a drive mechanism (certificate invention SU 330723, class B65G 51/46, publ. 10/31/1972).

The disadvantages of this container are:

- the inability to fix the transverse position of the center of gravity of the cargo placed in the container;

- insufficient opportunities to prevent contact of the container body in its middle part with the surface of the pipeline in its rotary sections, which leads to additional friction losses when the container moves through the pipeline.

The problem solved in the utility model is to develop a technical solution that ensures the elimination of these shortcomings by using a device for fixing the center of gravity of the cargo placed in the container, and a device to prevent contact of the container body in its middle part on the rotary sections of the pipeline.

The technical result of the utility model is to increase the stability of the cargo placed in the container while reducing friction when the container moves along the pipeline.

The problem is solved, and the technical result is achieved by the fact that in the container for transporting goods through a container pipeline containing a cylindrical body with a cargo cover fixed to its shell, wheel carts, according to a utility model, pneumatic seals are attached to the inner surfaces of the cargo cover and the shell of the cylindrical body, each of which is made in the form of an elastic chamber and is equipped with a nipple for pumping and discharging a gaseous medium, in the middle part of the cargo lid and casing Aiki cylindrical body in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical body, made with the possibility of geometric conjugation with each other concave single-wave corrugations to compensate for the bending of the cylindrical body on the rotary sections of the pipeline, a removable clamp installed in the transport position in the middle of the cylindrical body in the plane perpendicular its longitudinal axis, with four rolling elements fixed to it around the circumference at an equal distance from each other, preventing contacting the cylindrical body with the inner surface of the pipeline in its rotary sections.

The invention is illustrated in FIG. 1 and 2.

A container for transporting goods through a container pipeline works as follows.

Using a movable connection, a cargo lid 3 is attached to the cylindrical body 2 of the container 1 so that its longitudinal ribs are parallel to the longitudinal axis of the container 1. The length of each of the longitudinal ribs of the cargo lid 3 is 0.9 the length of the cylindrical body 2, and the length of the curve each of its transverse ribs - 0.35 shell lengths of the cylindrical body 2. Previously, in the middle part of the cargo cover 3 and the cylindrical body 2 perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the container 1 perform concave single-wave Frames 7 so that they are in an articulated position geometrically mated with each other. The front 4 and rear 5 cargo trolleys are attached to the front and rear parts of the cylindrical body 2 of the container 1, respectively, with four rolling elements 6 movably mounted on their shells at the same distance from each other 6. A shank 10 is attached to the rear wheel trolley 5, which ensures the perception of what is created in the container the pipeline 14 of the pressure of the working medium and transferring it to the container 1. On the inner surface of the cargo lid 3 fix the upper seal 11 on the inner surface of the cylindrical of the second body 2 - the lower pneumatic seal 12, each of which is made in the form of an elastic chamber and is equipped with a nipple 13. The total length of the container 1 in the assembly is 5 meters, which is comparable to the average length of the bodies of medium-duty vehicles.

When loading the container 1, open the cargo cover 3, movably mounted on the cylindrical body 2, load is evenly distributed throughout the entire internal cavity of the container 1 and close the cargo cover 3. After that, on the outer surface of the shell of the container 1 at a distance of 0.1 m from the front along the direction of travel the sides of the single-wave corrugation 7 install and fix the removable clamp 8 with four rolling elements 9 movably fixed on it at substantially the same distance from each other 9. Then using a pneumatic installation (not showing a) through the nipple 13 to the upper 11 and lower 12 pnevmouplotniteli injected gaseous medium, thus filling the free space inside the cylindrical body 2 of the container 1 and the fixing position of the load center of gravity.

The container 1 is placed in the internal cavity of the container pipe 14, creating a pressure of the working medium, which, acting on the shank 10, moves the container 1 through the container pipe 14. When the container 1 passes through the turning sections of the container pipe 14, the single-wave corrugation 7 is compressed by the rolling elements of the removable clamp 9 from the side of the smaller turning radius, thereby preventing the contact of the cylindrical body 2 and the cargo cover 3 with the inner surface of the container pipeline 14. Is olzovanie front 4 and rear 5 wheel sets as well as the removable clamp 8 are movably attached to the rolling elements 6 and 9 of the container 1 enables the prevention of contact with the inner surface of the container conduit 14 decrease friction.

When unloading the container 1, it is removed from the container pipeline 14, through the nipples 13 from the upper 11 and lower 12 pneumatic seals release a gaseous medium, remove the removable clamp 8, open the cargo cover 3 and unload the cargo.

Thus, as a result of the implementation of the proposed technical solution, the stability of the cargo placed in the container is increased and friction is reduced when the container moves through the pipeline.
