JPH08811U - Aroban conveyor belt for crude oil recovery - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] A Soroban type conveyor belt is installed on a conveyor as a belt and is capable of recovering crude oil spilled over the sea, etc., in a short time in a state that does not contain a large amount of water, regardless of the weather. The target device. [Structure] The abacus conveyor belt of the present invention is a conveyor belt to be attached to the conveyor. The entire belt is an abacus belt, and the front, rear, left, and right intervals of the balls are adjusted in advance according to the oil quality. Crude oil with strong surface tension is attached to the ball-shaped balls and carried up from the sea surface to the top of the ship at a speed of about 1 meter per second.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a crude oil recovery aerovan type conveyor belt relating to a conveyor belt that pumps only crude oil when recovering the crude oil that has flown out to the sea.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, a crude oil recovery device installed on a ship or the like, for example, a mechanical device such as a cyclome system, a Lockheed system, or a Baikoma pumps a large amount of seawater and a small amount of crude oil together, or pumps it by hand, which is extremely expensive. It was a bad recovery rate.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 As mentioned in the prior art, there is currently no effective way to do this, but the biggest cause of inefficiency was the large amount of water and a small amount of oil that were collected together.

[0004]

[Means for solving the problem]

 In order to achieve the above object, a partially inverted L-shaped conveyor equipped with a crude oil recovery abacus conveyor belt according to the present invention is hung from the ship at an angle and the tip is put in the sea to rotate the conveyor surface. The upper crude oil is constantly attached to the interstices of the mesh or the soroban balls by surface tension and is pumped up on the ship. The crude oil pumped up is collected by a blow-off device that uses hot air or high-pressure steam.

[0005]

[Example] An example of the present invention will be described based on an experiment conducted by installing a part of the belt conveyor. We experimented by arranging three shafts with five balls attached to one axis, first, put 18 liters of water in a 20 liter empty can and put 200 cc of diesel engine oil No. 30 on it, the oil diffused and the bottom of the can Disappeared at all. When a manual recovery operation was performed using a triaxial belt, it was possible to recover about 98% in about 5 minutes, and a thin oil film remained on the liquid surface of the can, but the bottom of the can was confirmed sufficiently. . [0006]

[Effect of device]

 Since the aerovan type conveyor belt for recovering crude oil of the present invention has the above-mentioned structure, it has the following effects.

Since it is mounted on the conveyor, it becomes a crude oil recovery device itself, and it is very compact and easy to move.

Since the vessel can be installed regardless of size, it can be easily placed all over the country.

[0009] When mounted on an appropriately sized high-speed dedicated vessel, it is possible to arrive at the site sooner and recover crude oil sooner not only in Japan but also in the distant open ocean.

It can be easily stored in a warehouse on land.

It is considered to be quite effective in preventing the spread of crude oil that has flown out to the sea surface, etc., and in a broad sense, it can contribute to the prevention of global environmental pollution.

Claims (2)

[Scope of utility model registration request] 1. A reinforced aluminum product having a diameter of 5 mm and a length of 55 cm.
On the horizontal axis of the round bar, abacus balls with a diameter of 25 mm and a thickness of 12.5 mm, which are made of aluminum hollow, are combed and stabbed, and the horizontal distance between each ball is 3 mm, and 32 balls are lined up on the shaft and fixed to the shaft. A shaft whose both ends are fixed to a driving unit is temporarily used as the first shaft.
The second shaft also fixes 32 balls in the same way as the single shaft, but the whole ball is inserted into each ball of the first shaft between each ball of the first shaft, and the distance between the tip of the ball and the first shaft. Is kept at 3 mm and both ends of the shaft are fixed (Fig. 1). After that, the third axis is aligned with the first axis and the fourth axis is aligned with the second axis so that the balls are on the same line. Abacus type conveyor belt. 2. A shaft, a ball shape, a material, and a gap are changed depending on the water temperature, the air temperature, the oil quality, and the size of the conveyor.
