RU210554U1 - Quick-release tank gauge hatch - Google Patents

Abstract

The utility model relates to the oil industry and can be used to measure the level of an oily liquid and take samples in tanks. The design of the quick-detachable bar of the measuring hatch of the tank includes a vertically oriented box 1, rigidly connected to the holder 2, which has a through hole 3 for the clamping bolt 4. Inside the long box 1, a fluoroplastic plate 5 is laid on the bottom to prevent mechanical damage (scratches, abrasions) to the measuring tool , for example, roulette. The upper end of the box 1 is welded to the end of the upper crossbar of the holder 2 having an L-shaped profile. The length L of the upper crossbar is not less than the thickness of the tank neck, and in the center of the vertically oriented part of the holder 2, a through horizontal hole 3 is made for installing the clamping bolt 4. 1 ill.

Description

Field of technology to which the utility model belongs

The utility model relates to the oil industry and can be used to measure the level of an oily liquid and take samples in tanks.

State of the art

The closest in design and purpose is the universal guide insert of the gauging hatches of tanks for storing oil, oil products and other organic liquids (RF patent No. tape of an electronic roulette of the tank wall, consisting of a spark-proof metal of a half-tee profile with a petal, mounted on a dielectric base. The insert is made with the possibility of fixing on the inner wall of the measuring hatch at an angle of 45° and grounding through the external fixing screw on the tank body. The disadvantage of this design is the need for a permanent installation of the device.

Utility Model Disclosure

The technical result achieved by the proposed design is to increase the degree of industrial safety when measuring the level of oil-containing liquid in the tank.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that the quick-detachable bar of the tank’s measuring hatch includes a guide box rigidly connected to a holder having an L-shaped longitudinal profile, the length of the upper crossbar of which is not less than the thickness of the tank mouth, and a through horizontal hole is made in the center of the vertically oriented part of the holder to install the clamping bolt, at the same time, a fluoroplastic plate is laid on the bottom of the box.

Brief description of the drawings

On FIG. 1 shows the design of the quick-detachable bar for the tank gauge hatch.

Implementation of the utility model

The design of the quick-detachable bar of the measuring hatch of the tank includes a vertically oriented box 1, rigidly connected to the holder 2, which has a through hole 3 for the clamping bolt 4. Inside the long box 1, a fluoroplastic plate 5 is laid on the bottom to prevent mechanical damage (scratches, abrasions) to the measuring tool , for example, roulette. The upper end of the box 1 is welded to the end of the upper crossbar of the holder 2 having an L-shaped profile. The length L of the upper crossbar is not less than the thickness of the tank neck, and in the center of the vertically oriented part of the holder 2, a through horizontal hole 3 is made for installing the clamping bolt 4.

The device works as follows.

Before measuring the level of oil-containing liquid in the tank, the direction of the wind is determined in such a way as to exclude the entry of service personnel into the zone of saturated vapors of the oil-containing liquid contained in the tank, after which the cover of the measuring hatch is opened. A device is installed on the end of the pipe of the measuring hatch in such a way that the box 1 with a fluoroplastic coating 5 is placed inside the tank, and the holder 2 is outside. Through the hole 3, the clamping bolt 4 fixes the device to the outer wall of the tank, after which a measuring tape is installed inside the box 1. In the process of measuring the liquid level in the tank, the metal tape of the measuring tape moves along the fluoroplastic coating 5, which prevents sparking and deviation of the tape from the vertical. After measuring the level, the device can be easily removed, performing the steps in reverse order, and mounted on another tank for measurements.

The proposed device is used in the oil and gas production shop of LUKOIL-PERM LLC.

Claims (2)

1. A quick-detachable bar of the reservoir hatch, including a vertically oriented box rigidly connected to the holder, characterized in that the upper end of the box is connected by a welded joint to the end of the upper crossbar of the holder having an L-shaped profile, and the length of the upper crossbar of the holder is not less than the thickness of the tank mouth , while a fluoroplastic plate is laid inside the long box. 2. A quick-detachable bar of the tank's measuring hatch according to claim 1, characterized in that a through horizontal hole is made in the center of the vertically oriented part of the holder for installing a clamping bolt.
