TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of chemical raw material barrels, in particular to a safe storage device for propylene oxide. BACKGROUND
[0002] Propylene oxide, also known as propylene oxide or methyl epoxide, is a colorless ether liquid with low boiling point, flammability, chirality and toxicity. Propylene oxide can be stored in a galvanized iron barrel that is dry, clean and well sealed. The galvanized iron barrel greatly facilitates the storage and transportation of chemical raw materials. In the field of chemical raw material production, manufacturers often use galvanized iron barrels to transport the produced raw materials to various end users. Users use automatic suction equipment to pump the raw materials into the tower.
[0003] The existing galvanized iron barrel for storing propylene oxide usually uses a threaded galvanized sealing cover at the filling port. This sealing cover needs to be manually screwed open, then quickly inserted into the suction pipeline and sealed before suction and filling operation. In this process, propylene oxide is inevitably volatilized into the environment. Although the relevant operation procedures require operators to wear protective equipment such as gas masks and protective gloves during operation, in actual operation, because the consumables (such as filter cartridges) in gas masks and protective equipment are consumables, the relevant management is not strict, which leads to the fact that most operators do not wear relevant protective equipment or wear it improperly during operation due to discomfort and low awareness of protection. As a result, the corresponding protection function cannot be achieved, the environment of the plant is polluted by propylene oxide, and long-term inhalation of propylene oxide vapor can cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness and diarrhea, and may cause cancer. Some sealing covers in the prior art are connected to the suction pipe, then the sealing block is lowered to guide, and then this way can cause part of the propylene oxide to leak with air from the connection when the suction pipe is not completely sealed (i.e. the sealing element at the end of the suction pipe is not pressed and does not form a sealing effect), and the propylene oxide is guided by the lower pressure operation. Therefore, in order to improve the safety of propylene oxide sealing suction and filling operation and avoid leakage during propylene oxide suction and filling, a safe storage device for propylene oxide is proposed.

[0010] As a further scheme of the present application, the guide groove is in a ┌-shaped structure, one end of the guide rod extends into the inside of the guide groove, and the outer wall of the guide rod is in close contact with the inner wall of the guide groove.

Through the cooperation of the above parts, the connection can be opened for suction or filling of propylene oxide after the suction pipe is sealed and connected with the connector. During the suction or filling process, some propylene oxide is effectively prevented from leaking out of the connection along with air. Attached Figure Description
