Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a combustible gas detection device, and more particularly to a dust-proof device for a combustible gas detection probe and a combustible gas detector. Background Art

[0002] In order to achieve real-time detection and remote alarm of the concentration of combustible, toxic and harmful gases in the space of an oil and gas field station, fixed combustible gas detectors are often installed in different areas of the field station, and combustible gas detectors with different distribution densities are set according to the classification of explosion-proof areas.

[0003] In order to enable the detection of leaked combustible gases at different concentrations by the detector in a timely manner, it is often necessary to complete the detection process through different reaction processes and principles of the detection probe of the detector. The detection process determines the concentration value of the combustible gas by the degree of chemical reaction (such as catalytic combustion type, etc.) of the gas entering the probe. When the detector is working, the electronic circuit part of the detector converts the combustion state of the combustible gas in the probe to achieve the output display of the concentration. When there is wind (sand and dust), while the combustible gas enters the probe along with the air, due to the presence of impurities such as sand and dust in the air, the probe is often blocked and the reaction of the combustible gas in the probe is affected, that is, the detection becomes insensitive and inaccurate. Especially when the sand and dust are large, the detector probe may malfunction or even be scrapped.

[0004] Currently, in order to solve the problem of probe failure caused by the influence of sand and dust, a mesh probe guard is usually installed outside the probe to prevent sand and dust from entering and affecting the normal operation of the probe. The dust-proof net and the probe are generally located at the lower end of the detector and are exposed to increase the contact area with the outside gas. However, the above-mentioned mesh probe guard is extremely easy to be blocked, resulting in poor dust-proof effect. Summary of the Invention

[0046] Embodiment 1

[0047] A combustible gas detector (hereinafter referred to as the detector in the following embodiments) includes: a meter head, a controller is arranged in the meter head, and a display screen can also be installed on the meter head. The display screen is communicatively connected to the controller; a detection probe is arranged at the lower end of the meter head. The detection probe can be used to detect the concentration of combustible gas, and the detection probe is communicatively connected to the controller; wherein, the controller is used to process the signal detected by the detection probe and send the processed signal to the display screen so that the display screen can display the concentration of combustible gas for the on-site operators to understand. In addition, the detector may further include an electrical interface to facilitate the electrical connection of the detector to other devices in the oil and gas field station.

[0048] When there is wind (sand dust), while the combustible gas enters the probe along with the air, due to the presence of impurities such as sand dust in the air, the reaction of the combustible gas in the probe is affected, that is, the detection becomes insensitive. Especially when the sand dust is large, the detector probe may malfunction or even be scrapped.

[0049] Currently, to solve the problem of the probe becoming ineffective due to the influence of sand dust, a mesh probe guard is usually installed outside the probe to block the entry of sand dust and ensure the normal operation of the probe. The dust-proof net and the probe are generally located at the lower end of the detector and are exposed to increase the contact area with the outside gas. However, the above-mentioned mesh probe guard is extremely easy to be blocked, resulting in difficulty for the combustible gas to enter the probe and poor dust-proof effect.

[0050] To overcome the above problems, this embodiment provides a dust-proof device for a combustible gas detection probe.

[0051] Figure 1 Structural schematic of the dust-proof device for a combustible gas detection probe provided in the first embodiment of this Figure I ; Figure 2 Structural schematic of the dust-proof device for a combustible gas detection probe provided in the first embodiment of this Figure II ; Figure 3 Structural schematic of the dust-proof device for a combustible gas detection probe provided in the first embodiment of this Figure III .

[0053] Please refer to Figures 1 - 6, the dust-proof device 200 for the combustible gas detection probe 102 provided in this embodiment includes: a tube 201 sleeved on the probe shield 103 of the detection probe 102; at least one ventilation hole 201a is provided at the upper end of the side wall of the tube 201; an air inlet 201b is provided at the lower end of the tube 201 facing away from the detection probe 102; an inner rotating blade 202 is provided on the inner wall of the tube 201, and the inner rotating blade 202 protrudes inward from the inner wall of the tube 201 and is spirally arranged, and there is a gap for combustible gas to pass between the inner rotating blade 202 and the probe shield 103.

[0054] Among them, the probe shield 103 is a columnar mesh structure, covering the outside of the detection probe 102 to filter the gas entering the detection probe 102.

[0055] The tube 201 can be a hollow cylinder, rotatably sleeved on the probe shield 103, and there is a gap between the inner wall of the tube 201 and the probe shield 103.

[0056] In some examples, the tube 201 can be connected to a fixed bracket, that is, the tube 201 is supported on the fixed bracket, and the fixed bracket can be connected to other fixed devices in the oil and gas field station.

[0057] In some examples, the upper end of the tube 201 can be connected to the meter head 100 to support and position the tube 201 through the meter head 100. The lower end of the tube 201 has an air inlet 201b, and external air (containing combustible gas) can enter the tube 201 through the air inlet 201b, and then enter the detection probe 102 through the probe shield 103.

[0058] In some examples, the tube 201 has a side wall extending along its circumference and enclosing a closed loop, and the lower end of the side wall can enclose the air inlet 201b.

[0059] In some examples, a lower wall can also be provided at the lower end of the side wall of the tube 201, and at least one through hole is opened on the lower wall, and the at least one through hole forms the air inlet 201b of the tube 201.

[0060] At least one ventilation hole 201a can be provided at the upper end of the side wall of the tube 201, and the ventilation hole 201a can allow the gas in the tube 201 to flow out. Among them, when there are multiple ventilation holes 201a, the multiple ventilation holes 201a can be evenly distributed along the circumference of the tube 201.

[0061] An inner rotating blade 202 is provided on the inner side of the side wall of the tube 201, that is, on the inner wall of the tube 201. The inner rotating blade 202 protrudes inward from the inner wall of the tube 201 and is spirally arranged, and there is a gap for combustible gas to pass between the inner rotating blade 202 and the probe shield 103.

[0062] That is to say, the inner rotating blade 202 is spirally extended upward from the lower end of the side wall. The spiral direction can be set according to actual needs and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0063] In this way, during operation, as Figure 4 shown, air enters the tube 201 from the lower end of the tube 201 and rises along the inner rotating blade 202 on the inner wall of the tube 201. During its spiral upward process, it will generate a rotational scouring effect on the probe shield 103, which not only increases the chance of the combustible gas in the air contacting the probe shield 103, but also impacts the dust and other impurities blocked on the probe shield 103, thus greatly reducing or even avoiding the blockage problem of the probe shield 103, improving the dust-proof effect, and further avoiding the interference of dust and other impurities with the reaction of the combustible gas in the detection probe 102, which is beneficial to improving the detection stability and accuracy of the detection probe 102.

[0064] When the gas in the tube 201 rises to the position where the ventilation hole 201a is located, the gas between the tube 201 and the probe shield 103 can be discharged through the ventilation hole 201a.

[0065] In addition, when there is wind, as Figure 5 shown, a certain negative pressure effect is formed in the tube 201. Part of the dust-containing gas will enter the tube 201 from the ventilation hole 201a. During the rotation of the dust-containing gas in the inner rotating blade 202, the heavier particles in the gas gradually move away from the probe shield 103 at the center position of the tube 201, and the inner rotating blade 202 spirally arranged downward along the inner wall of the tube 201 will rotate and move the separated dust downward along the joint surface between the tube 201 and the inner rotating blade 202, thus ensuring that the dust in the gas is far away from the probe shield 103 and reducing the blockage probability of the probe shield 103.

[0066] At the same time, the lighter components (such as combustible gas, air) in the gas generating a rotating effect in the tube 201 will rotate around the probe shield 103 and enter the probe shield 103 to ensure the normal detection of the combustible gas by the detection probe 102. Finally, the dust and other impurities on the probe shield 103 are continuously scoured by the rotating gas to reduce the maintenance frequency and achieve the purpose of continuous stability of the detection performance of the detection probe 102.

[0067] The dust-proof device 200 for the combustible gas detection probe 102 provided in this embodiment is configured by sleeving a tube 201 on the probe shield 103, arranging a ventilation hole 201a at the upper end of the tube 201, arranging an air inlet 201b at the lower end of the tube 201, and arranging an internally spirally extending inner spiral blade 202 on the inner wall of the tube 201. In this way, the gas entering the tube 201 can spiral upward along the inner spiral blade 202. During its spiral upward process, it will generate a rotational scouring effect on the probe shield 103, which not only increases the chance of the combustible gas in the air contacting the probe shield 103, but also impacts the dust and other impurities blocked on the probe shield 103, thereby greatly reducing or even avoiding the blockage problem of the probe shield 103, improving the dust-proof effect, and further avoiding the interference of dust and other impurities with the reaction of the combustible gas in the detection probe 102, which is beneficial to improving the detection stability and accuracy of the detection probe 102.

[0068] Optionally, two ventilation holes 201a are arranged on the tube 201, and the ventilation holes 201a are symmetrically distributed along the central axis of the tube 201 to improve the scouring effect of the gas in the tube 201 on the probe shield 103.

[0069] Optionally, the tube 201 is rotatably sleeved on the probe shield 103; a steering wing 203 is further arranged on the tube 201, and the steering wing 203 is used to drive the tube 201 to rotate relative to the probe shield 103 under the action of wind force.

[0070] In this way, as Figure 5 shown, when there is wind, the steering wing 203 drives the tube 201 to rotate around the probe shield 103 as the rotation center under the action of wind force, and more dust-containing gas will enter the tube 201 from the ventilation hole 201a under the negative pressure effect. More dust-containing gas generates a rotational downward movement on the inner spiral blade 202, causing the heavier particles such as dust in the gas to gradually move away from the probe shield 103 at the center position of the tube 201, thereby further reducing the probability and risk of dust in the gas blocking the probe shield 103.

[0071] The greater the wind force, the more obvious the negative pressure effect formed in the tube 201, and the more capable of reducing the probability and risk of dust in the gas blocking the probe shield 103.

[0072] In some examples, the tube 201 can be connected to a fixed bracket, that is, the tube 201 is supported on the fixed bracket to relatively position the central axis of the tube 201 and the central axis of the probe shield 103; the fixed bracket can be connected to other fixed devices in the oil and gas field station.

[0073] Exemplarily, the lower end of the tube 201 is rotatably inserted into the tube hole of the fixed bracket. Of course, the installation position of the fixed bracket is not limited to this, as long as the fixed bracket does not interfere with the installation and function of other components in the dust-proof device 200. In some examples, the tube 201 is used to rotatably connect with the meter head 100 connected to the upper end of the detection probe.

[0074] Exemplarily, an annular groove is provided at the lower end of the meter head 100, and the upper end of the tube 201 is rotatably arranged in the annular groove to relatively position the central axis of the tube 201 and the central axis of the probe shield 103.

[0075] Optionally, the central axis of the ventilation hole 201a is perpendicularly arranged to the windward surface 203a of the turning wing 203, so as to reduce the amount of dust in the gas directly entering the ventilation hole 201a and impacting the probe shield 103 in the tube 201, reduce the adhesion effect of the dust on the probe shield 103, and further reduce the blockage probability of the probe shield 103.

[0076] Among them, the turning wing 203 has a connecting surface connected to the outer side wall of the tube 201, and the connecting surface extends along the axial direction of the tube 201; the turning wing 203 also has two relatively arranged windward surfaces 203a connected to the connecting surface, and the windward surfaces 203a also extend along the axial direction of the tube 201.

[0077] In some examples, the turning wing 203 can be integrally arranged with the tube 201. For example, it can be realized by an integral molding process.

[0078] In some examples, the turning wing 203 is fixedly welded to the tube 201.

[0079] Optionally, the tube 201 is made of metal or plastic; and / or, the inner rotating blade 202 is made of metal or plastic; and / or, the turning wing 203 is made of metal or plastic.

[0080] Optionally, the tube 201 and the inner rotating blade 202 are integrally arranged; for example, it can be realized by an integral molding process.

[0081] Optionally, the lower end of the tube 201 extends downward beyond the probe shield 103, so as to increase the flushing area of the probe shield 103 and improve the dust removal effect on the probe shield 103.

[0082] During normal operation, as Figure 4 shown, the combustible gas-containing air rises from the lower end of the tube 201, part of the air is discharged through the ventilation hole 201a after passing through the probe shield 103, and part of the gas rotates and passes through the probe shield 103 into the detection probe 102 to achieve the normal detection purpose of the combustible gas.

[0083] When the wind blows, asFigure 5 As shown in the figure, the force exerted by the wind on the steering wing 203 causes the tube 201 to rotate with the wind direction and maintain a relatively stable position relative to the wind direction. The ventilation hole 201a at the upper end of the tube 201 is perpendicular to the direction of the wind and exposes a certain windward area. Under the negative pressure effect of the tube 201, the gas containing sand and dust enters the tube 201 through the ventilation hole 201a, rotates and moves downward along the inner rotating blade 202, and is discharged from the lower end of the tube 201.

[0084] Continuously performing the above operation process, the gas containing sand and dust entering through the ventilation hole 201a rotates on the inner rotating blade 202, causing the heavier particles in the gas to gradually move away from the probe shield 103 at the center position of the tube 201. The inner rotating blade 202 spirally arranged along the inner wall of the tube 201 rotates and moves the separated sand and dust downward along the joint surface between the tube 201 and the inner rotating blade 202, thereby ensuring that the sand and dust in the gas are far away from the probe shield 103 and reducing the probability of blockage of the probe shield 103.

[0085] In addition, the lighter components (such as combustible gas and air) in the gas that generate a rotating effect in the tube 201 rotate around the probe shield 103 and pass through the probe shield 103 to reach the detection probe 102, ensuring the normal detection of the combustible gas by the detection probe 102. Finally, the impurities on the probe shield 103 are continuously washed and cleaned by the rotating gas, reducing the maintenance frequency and achieving the purpose of continuously stabilizing the detection performance of the detection probe 102.

[0086] Embodiment 2

[0087] Please continue to refer to Figures 1 - 6 , this embodiment provides a combustible gas detector, including: a meter head 100, a detection probe 102 is arranged at the lower end of the meter head 100, a probe shield 103 is arranged outside the detection probe 102, and the aforementioned dust-proof device 200 is arranged outside the probe shield 103.

[0088] A controller is arranged in the meter head 100, and a display screen 101 can also be installed on the meter head 100. The display screen 101 is communicatively connected to the controller; the detection probe 102 can be used to detect the concentration of combustible gas, and the detection probe 102 is communicatively connected to the controller; wherein, the controller is used to process the signal detected by the detection probe 102 and send the processed signal to the display screen 101, so that the display screen 101 displays the real-time concentration of combustible gas for the on-site operators to understand.

[0089] In addition, the detector can also include an electrical interface 104 to facilitate the electrical connection of the detector to other devices in the oil and gas field station; of course, the detector can also include a wireless communication device for communicatively connecting to other devices in the oil and gas field station.

[0090] Among them, the structure and function of the dust-proof device 200 are the same as those in the first embodiment described above, and will not be elaborated here.

[0091] During the normal operation of the combustible gas detector provided in this embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the air containing combustible gas rises from the lower end of the tube 201. Part of the air is discharged through the ventilation hole 201a after passing through the probe shield 103, and part of the gas rotates through the probe shield 103 and enters the detection probe 102 to achieve the normal detection purpose of the combustible gas.

[0092] When the wind blows, as Figure 5 shown, the force of the wind acting on the steering wing 203 causes the tube 201 to rotate with the wind direction and maintain a relatively stable position relative to the wind direction. The ventilation hole 201a at the upper end of the tube 201 is perpendicular to the direction of the wind and exposes a certain windward area. The gas containing dust enters the tube 201 through the ventilation hole 201a and then rotates and moves downward along the inner rotating blade 202 and is discharged from the lower end of the tube 201.

[0093] Continuously performing the above action process, the gas containing dust entering through the ventilation hole 201a rotates on the inner rotating blade 202 and makes the heavier particles in the gas gradually move away from the probe shield 103 located at the center of the tube 201. The inner rotating blade 202 spirally arranged along the inner wall of the tube 201 rotates and moves the separated dust downward along the joint surface between the tube 201 and the inner rotating blade 202, thereby ensuring that the dust in the gas is far away from the probe shield 103 and reducing the probability of blockage of the probe shield 103.

[0094] In addition, the lighter components (such as combustible gas, air) in the gas that generate a rotating effect in the tube 201 rotate around the probe shield 103 and pass through the probe shield 103 to reach the detection probe 102, ensuring the normal detection of the combustible gas by the detection probe 102. Finally, the impurities on the probe shield 103 are continuously washed and cleaned by the rotating gas to reduce the maintenance frequency and achieve the purpose of maintaining the continuous stability of the detection performance of the detection probe 102.

[0095] The combustible gas detector provided in this embodiment is configured such that a tube 201 is sleeved over the probe shield 103. An air vent 201a is provided at the upper end of the tube 201, an air inlet 201b is provided at the lower end of the tube 201, and spiral inner rotating blades 202 are provided on the inner wall of the tube 201. In this way, the gas entering the tube 201 can spiral upward along the inner rotating blades 202. During its spiral upward movement, a rotational scouring effect will be exerted on the probe shield 103, which not only increases the chance of the combustible gas in the air coming into contact with the probe shield 103, but also impacts impurities such as dust blocking the probe shield 103. Thus, the problem of blockage of the probe shield 103 is greatly reduced or even avoided, the dust-proof effect is improved, and furthermore, interference of impurities such as dust with the reaction of the combustible gas is avoided, which is beneficial to improving the detection stability and accuracy of the detection probe 102. Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
