Motor vehicle and device for cleaning and degassing storage tanks

This creation relates to a device for cleaning and degassing a storage tank under the ground.

Traditionally, the cleaning and degassing of the fuel storage tank under the ground is first to empty the fuel storage tank and use the suction pump. The worker then enters the fuel storage tank itself to operate, using special tools to ensure that no spark will be generated and cause an explosion. Then, the inside of the storage tank is flushed, and the worker operates the nozzle provided to remove the sludge collected by suction at the bottom of the fuel storage tank.

Therefore, the operation is actually very dangerous. Because there is a flammable gas in the fuel storage tank, it is easy to cause explosion and death of the operator.

Furthermore, the cleaning operation by the operator requires a large amount of cleaning water, and must be collected and disposed of properly.

No. 4,770,711 discloses a mobile hydraulic unit for cleaning sludge-containing hydrocarbons that become fluid in a storage tank. Another U.S. Patent No. 4,817,653 discloses a water washing machine comprising a frame and a water pump. The structure of the machine is detachably mounted to the frame, and the nozzle structure for water washing is detachably assembled to the frame. The machine is transported in an unassembled state, so there is still a need for dispatched personnel to enter the storage tank for assembly and operation, so there is still a great risk in terms of operational safety.

The detailed description and technical content of the present invention are described below with reference to the drawings, but the drawings are only for reference and explanation, and are not intended to limit the creation.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , which are schematic diagrams and schematic diagrams of the working phases of the motor vehicle for cleaning and degassing the storage tanks.

The cleaning and degassing device 1 for cleaning the storage tank is used for cleaning and degassing a storage tank 2 (such as a fuel storage tank located under the ground), but is not limited thereto. The device 1 includes a motor vehicle 10, a control panel 20, and a truck 30. The control panel 20 is used to control the operation of the motor vehicle 10. In addition, the truck 30 can carry the motor vehicle 10 and the control panel 20, and the truck 30 is embedded with a plurality of compartments 31 disposed separately. In this embodiment, the device 1 further includes a suction pump 40, and the suction pump 40 is connected to the plurality of slots 31.

The process of cleaning and degassing the storage tank of the present invention can be mainly divided into four basic stages. In the first stage, a film material (not shown) is used which has a hydrocarbon-proof property to prevent continuous discharge of explosive gas. Subsequently, a flexible plastic tube having a special conveyor belt is attached to the top, and the flexible plastic tube is connected to the suction pump 40.

In use, the flexible plastic tube is introduced into the storage tank 2 through the manhole, and then the suction pump 40 is activated, whereby most of the sludge and sand in the middle of the bottom of the storage tank 2 are sucked out. Next, the flexible plastic tube is withdrawn, and the inventive motor vehicle 10 (described in more detail later) is placed in the storage tank 2.

Please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 respectively, which are respectively a schematic diagram of the connection between the motor vehicle and the control panel of the present invention and a three-dimensional appearance of the motor vehicle. The motor vehicle 10 is powered by a pneumatically or hydraulically driven motor 11 that is controlled by a control panel 20 outside of the storage tank 2. The motor vehicle 10 is movable along the inner wall of the storage tank 2 in the longitudinal direction and in a partial lateral direction.

The motor vehicle 10 is coupled to a plurality of receptacles 31 on the exterior of the truck 30. The motor vehicle 10 has a rotary head 12, a plurality of nozzles 13 and at least one suction nozzle 14. The nozzles 13 include a first series of nozzles 131 on the front side and a second series of nozzles 132 disposed on the rotating head 12. The first series of nozzles 131 eject water under a pressure that has broken up deposits that have not been removed in the first stage and are suspended in the water. The deposit is lifted by the suction nozzle 14 provided in the motor vehicle 10.

In the third stage, the water supply to the first series of nozzles 131 is suspended, instead of being directed through the water sprayed by the second series of nozzles 132 disposed on the rotary head 12 under a high pressure (e.g., 200 Pa).

During the cleaning operation of the rotary head 12, water containing deposits is removed from the storage tank 2 and transferred to the plurality of tanks 31. The liquid is removed from one of the tanks 31 through the suction pump 40, processed, filtered, and sent to another tank 31. In an embodiment of the present invention, the treated and filtered water is passed through a water pump 41 and sent to the storage tank 2 via the rotary head 12, and the process is repeated, and the liquid can be recovered and recovered.

In the fourth stage, the motor vehicle 10 is taken out of the storage tank 2, and then the water vapor generated from the boiler is sent to the storage tank 2 from one of the tanks 31, at the same time, the condensation generated. Water vapor is removed by aspiration. At this point, cleaning and degassing operations can be considered complete.

Referring to FIG. 5, it is a partial sectional view of the motor vehicle of the present invention. In this embodiment, the motor vehicle 10 is arranged with a cone pulley set 16 having a belt set 15 in a lateral direction and a longitudinal direction, and the motor 11 is driven. Corresponding to the belt set 15 and the tapered pulley block 16. In addition, pneumatic or hydraulic drive control activates the corresponding split engine to move the motor vehicle 10 in all directions and to raise and lower the corresponding belt set 15.

As described above, the motor vehicle 10 has the first series of nozzles 131 on the front side and the second series of nozzles 132 in the rotation to perform the above-described various stages of operation. In addition, the suction nozzle 14 of the motor vehicle 10 has an elastic suspension that can be attached to the bottom of the storage tank 2 when the motor vehicle 10 moves, according to which the water is removed according to the working phase and delivered to the truck 30. In the tank 31, the cleaning and degassing operations are controlled.

It is to be noted that the reason for feeding the dirty water into the different tanks 31 is that the water sent through the first series of nozzles 131 from the first washing stage is contaminated, however, it is sent through the second series of nozzles 132 from the final washing stage. After the proper recycling, the water is obviously reusable, so as to save clean water.

Furthermore, the control panel 20 of the motor vehicle 10 is realized by means of a pneumatic and/or hydraulic feed system, which is mainly divided into four sections. The first is composed of axial motion control, the second is controlled by the lifting system to control the lateral movement, the third is the lateral movement, and the fourth is the changing movement of the rotary head during the cleaning operation.

It should be noted that in an embodiment of the present creation, the motor vehicle 10 is provided with a television camera 50 and a light component 51 for providing illumination. The arrangement of the television camera 50 provides detailed detection of the exterior of the storage tank 2 and the interior surface of the storage tank 2.

Please refer to FIG. 6 , which is a schematic perspective view of the motor vehicle of the present invention. In the embodiment, the rotating head 12 , the nozzles 13 , the television camera 50 and the light component 51 are all disposed on a rotating frame. 60 on. When the motor vehicle 10 is not in use, the revolving frame 60 can be rotated and folded to reduce the storage space and increase the practicality of the present creation.

The above descriptions are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the patents of the present invention. Other equivalent variations of the patent spirit using the present invention are all within the scope of the patent.
