Description

The invention relates to the field of providing fuel for military equipment in the field.

For the conditions of conducting hostilities to repel enemy aggression, timely delivery of fuel to combat positions and refueling of military equipment with it is important. This task is especially difficult in the conditions of observance of the secrecy of the location of military units, limiting or excluding the possibility of using special automobile means of refueling and transporting fuel, which predetermines the need to use various wheeled and tracked vehicles to deliver fuel to the locations of military equipment, which are equipped with units of military units. ...

When reviewing the technical literature, a number of technical solutions related to the specified problems were identified.

A collapsible container for fluid substances is known, containing a hollow body formed by two flat rigid walls of a triangular shape and connecting them with corrugated folding walls with an opening in the upper part of the body for filling and dispensing substances, rigid walls and part of the corrugated walls form the side walls of the body, and the other part of the corrugated walls form its base, rigid walls are interconnected by a bridge placed along their adjacent edges between the base and the upper part of the body and are made with the possibility of rotation relative to it, a pull-out spout is installed in the hole (patent for invention SU 1784025, class B65D 21 / 08, publ. 23.12.1992, bulletin No. 47).

The main disadvantages of this container are:

- low efficiency of using the useful capacity of vehicles when transporting several containers;

- low efficiency of using the container when refueling military equipment, which consists in the need to empty it manually, which significantly reduces the productivity of refueling;

- the complexity of operation in the field, caused by the limited possibilities for the transportation of several containers at the same time by one vehicle from among the standard wheeled and tracked vehicles with which military units are equipped.

Known tank for liquids, containing a body with a corrugated shell, attached to the bottom and the lid with the possibility of vertical movement relative to the guides, a lifting device, a weight in the form of a plate attached to the lid and connected to a lifting device, air filling, intake and drain valves (patent for invention SU 1093632, class B65D 90/28, B60K 15/02, publ. 23.05.1984, bull. No. 19).

The main disadvantages of this tank are:

- the complexity of the design, making it difficult to maintain, repair and use in the field;

- the complexity of operation in the field, caused by the limited ability to transport several tanks at the same time by one vehicle from among the standard wheeled and tracked vehicles with which military units are equipped.

Closest to the claimed invention is a tank for transporting liquids with a variable geometry of the body, containing a roof, a bottom, pairwise movably connected side and end folding modules, made with the possibility of folding in the direction of a vertical plane passing along the sides of the bottom of the tank, a removable neck, two power cylinders , movably attached to the lower part of the support and the lower lateral folding module, drain-filling and process pipes and pressure hoses, an elastic shell placed in the inner cavity bounded by the roof, bottom and folding modules, and attached to them with fasteners, compressed blower medium with a drive (patent for invention RU 2614935, class B65D 88/20, B65D 21/08, publ. 03/30/2017, bul. No. 10). The main disadvantages of this tank are:

- limited possibilities of using standard wheeled and tracked vehicles for its transportation, which are equipped with units of military units;

- a significant excess of the tank capacity of the required refueling volume of a unit of refueled military equipment, which predetermines the need for multiple movement of the tank or refueled military equipment in the positions occupied by the units of the military unit.

The problem solved in the invention is to eliminate these disadvantages by developing the design of a field container for refueling military equipment with fuel, which makes it possible to use standard wheeled and tracked vehicles for its delivery to combat positions, which are equipped with units of military units, and by refueling equipment using standard hydraulic or pneumatic devices for moving, respectively, combustible or compressed air.

The technical result of the invention is to increase the efficiency and reliability of fuel supply of military equipment to military units in the field.

The problem is solved, and the technical result is achieved as a result of the fact that, according to the invention, a field container for refueling military equipment with fuel contains an elastic shell, a housing with a lid, fuel and air nozzles equipped with valves, the elastic shell is placed in the inner cavity of the housing and fixed with fasteners elements on its lower longitudinal surface, on the lower and upper parts of the front end surface, on the lower part of the rear end surface, the fuel pipe is made with the possibility of attaching to it a dispensing hose for refueling equipment with fuel, a hose of the suction line of a pump used for refueling equipment with fuel, and also the hoses of the pressure line of the pump used to fill the elastic shell with fuel, the air nozzle is made with the possibility of attaching the hose of the pressure line of the compressor to it for displacing the fuel from the elastic shell when refueling equipment with it. The invention is illustrated in FIG. 1-3.

A field container for refueling equipment with fuel works as follows.

To compensate for the thermal expansion of the fuel, the elastic shell 1 is made with a capacity that must be at least 5% less than the volume of the inner cavity of the body 2. An elastic shell 1 is placed in the inner cavity of the body 2 with a fuel pipe 5 fixed in its lower part of the front end surface, which passed out through the hole made in the lower part of the front end surface of the housing 2, and supply it with a tap 7. The elastic shell 1 is fixed with fasteners 4 on the lower longitudinal surface, on the lower and upper parts of the front end surface, as well as on the lower part of the rear end surface case 2. On the upper part of the front end surface of the case 2, an air nozzle 6 is fixed, one end of which is placed in the inner cavity of the case 2 above the upper surface of the elastic shell 1, and the opposite end is provided with a tap 7. The fuel nozzle 5 is made with the possibility of connecting a dispensing p indicating (not shown) for refueling the equipment with fuel, the pump suction line hoses (not shown) used for refueling the equipment, as well as the pump pressure line hoses (not shown) used to fill the elastic shell 1 with fuel. The air nozzle 6 is made with the possibility of attaching a hose of the pressure line of the compressor (not shown) to it for displacing fuel from the elastic shell 1 when refueling equipment with it. In the upper part of the housing 2, the cover 3 is fixed with the possibility of its removal during the maintenance and repair of the elastic shell 1.

When filling the elastic shell 1 with fuel, a hose of the pressure line of the pump (not shown) is connected to the fuel pipe 5, the valve 7 on the air pipe 6 is opened, the pump (not shown) is turned on, and fuel is supplied to the inner cavity of the elastic shell 1. The elastic shell 1 as its filling takes the form of the inner surface of the housing 2 and its lid 3. The position of the elastic shell 1 in the housing 2 during its filling and transportation is fixed by means of fasteners 4. Filling the elastic shell 1 to its full capacity is controlled by stopping the exit of the air displaced from the housing 2 through the air nozzle 6. After completion of filling the elastic shell 1 with fuel, the pump (not shown) is turned off, the valves 7 on the fuel 5 and air 6 nozzles are closed, the hose of the pump pressure line (not shown) is disconnected.

When refueling equipment with fuel using a pump (not shown), a hose of the suction line of the pump (not shown) is connected to the fuel nozzle 5, the taps 7 on the fuel 5 and air 6 nozzles are opened, the pump (not shown) is turned on and the equipment is refueled with fuel, upon completion which turn off the pump (not shown), close the taps 7 on the fuel 5 and 6 air nozzles, disconnect the hose of the suction line of the pump (not shown).

When refueling equipment with fuel using a compressor (not shown), a hose of the pressure line of the compressor (not shown) is connected to the air nozzle 6, the valves 7 on the fuel 5 and air 6 nozzles are opened, the compressor (not shown) is turned on and the equipment is refueled with fuel. By creating an excess air pressure in the inner cavity of the housing 2 with the cover 3, the fuel is displaced from the inner cavity of the elastic shell 1. After the equipment has been refueled with fuel, the compressor (not shown) is turned off, the taps 7 on the fuel 5 and air 6 nozzles are closed, the pressure hose is disconnected compressor lines (not shown).

When storing and transporting a container filled with fuel, to compensate for the thermal expansion of the fuel, a breathing valve (not shown) is installed on the air nozzle 6 and the valve 7 is opened.

Thus, as a result of the implementation of the proposed technical solution, an increase in the efficiency and reliability of fuel supply to military equipment of military units in the field is ensured by developing the design of a field container for refueling military equipment with fuel, which makes it possible to use standard wheeled and tracked transport vehicles for its delivery to combat positions. the means with which the units of military units are equipped, and the refueling of equipment using standard hydraulic or pneumatic devices for moving, respectively, combustible or compressed air.
