Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of environmental monitoring, specifically to a gas content detection device and method for three-dimensional monitoring in confined spaces. Background Technology
[0002] Confined spaces refer to enclosed or semi-enclosed facilities and places with restricted access, poor ventilation, and the potential presence of flammable, explosive, toxic, or hazardous substances or oxygen deficiency, posing a threat to the health and safety of personnel entering or exploring such spaces. Examples include reactors, towers, vessels, tanks, furnaces, boiler drums, as well as basements, cellars, pits (pools), sewers, or other enclosed or semi-enclosed places.
[0003] Currently, gas content detection in confined spaces typically involves personnel entering and using handheld instruments. However, in practical applications, this method poses a significant threat to personnel's health and safety, especially in spaces containing toxic or hazardous substances or lacking oxygen. This is particularly true when the concentration of harmful gases within a specific confined space is dynamically changing, increasing the risk of accidents. Furthermore, current handheld instruments only detect a single point within the space, making multi-point, three-dimensional monitoring difficult, especially for deeper structures such as tanks, chimneys, and reaction towers.
[0004] However, in actual use, the following defects exist:
[0005] (1) Currently, the gas monitoring probes and the main body of the monitoring device are all packaged together. As the sensitivity and lifespan of the probes decrease with the frequency of use and the environment, some monitoring devices with reduced sensitivity, lower accuracy, or probe damage are directly discarded during use. Most of the discarded gas monitoring devices are due to sensor failure in the probe, while other modules are still working properly, which undoubtedly increases the cost of product use. In addition, some gas monitoring devices can monitor different gases by connecting different probes to their monitoring modules. However, because the gas monitoring probes and the main body of the monitoring device are integrated into one unit, the device can only be used to monitor the same gas, reducing its versatility.
[0006] (2) Currently, the housing of gas detectors generally consists of a housing and an end cap. The end cap is fastened to the housing, and a ring-shaped sealing ring is placed between the end cap and the housing. The two sides of the sealing ring are respectively attached to the housing and the end cap. For example, Chinese utility model patent, patent number CN201820412629.0, discloses a gas detection module for flue gas analysis equipment, including a housing. The bottom of the housing is open, and a PCB board is covered on the bottom of the housing by a threaded connection. A sealing ring is also installed at the contact point between the bottom of the housing and the PCB board. A gas detection sensor is connected to the PCB board. The gas detection sensor is located in the space formed by the housing and the PCB board. An air inlet and an air outlet are respectively provided on the corresponding sides above the side wall of the housing. Traditional sealing rings only rely on two sealing end faces to produce a sealing effect. Not only is the sealing effect poor, but the position of the sealing ring is also difficult to fix during assembly. In addition, since the working area of the gas detector is humid and most monitoring areas are accompanied by corrosive gases, the poor sealing effect of the gas detector housing directly leads to the corrosion and damage of the internal electronic components of the gas detector.
[0007] (3) There are many types of common gas monitoring instruments, such as gas monitoring based on the principle of infrared absorption, gas monitoring based on the principle of grating chromatography, etc. Taking the patent application document with application number "CN201810737837.2" and application name "combustible gas detection circuit, monitoring system and its working method" as an example, it relates to a combustible gas detection circuit, monitoring system and its working method. The combustible gas detection circuit is suitable for using a Wheatstone bridge structure. The Wheatstone bridge structure includes: a comparison resistor H1 and a detection resistor H2, which are respectively used as bridge arms; wherein the comparison resistor H1 is suitable for sealing in pure air; the detection resistor H2 is suitable for contacting combustible gas; and a combustible gas detection module is provided in the Wheatstone bridge structure, and the combustible gas detection module is suitable for judging the signal change between the comparison resistor H1 and the detection resistor H2 after contacting combustible gas. A combustible gas detection module is integrated into the Wheatstone bridge structure. This module is used to determine whether a combustible gas leak has occurred by comparing the signal changes between the comparison resistor H1 and the detection resistor H2 after contact with the combustible gas. However, further research revealed several shortcomings in the existing gas monitoring equipment: for example, it can only perform qualitative detection of the gas, not quantitative detection; it suffers from insufficient detection sensitivity, poor gas selectivity, and susceptibility to environmental humidity, ultimately leading to unstable gas detection results and hindering the improvement of gas sensor monitoring efficiency.
[0008] (4) There are many types of common gas monitoring instruments, such as gas monitoring based on the principle of infrared absorption, gas monitoring based on the principle of grating chromatography, etc. Further research revealed that, regardless of the structure of the gas monitoring equipment, after acquiring the gas monitoring data, technicians need to transmit the gas data remotely in order to realize the analysis, diagnosis and reprocessing of the gas data. As described in patent document CN201721107736.4, entitled "A Gas Data Acquisition and Monitoring Gateway for Hospitals," this gas data acquisition and monitoring gateway for hospitals includes a box-type housing and a circuit board located inside the housing. The circuit board houses a gateway circuit, including a main control chip, three opto-isolated RS485 interfaces, one SPI interface, one network interface, a power supply circuit, an IP DIP switch circuit, an information storage device, and a power amplifier circuit. The main control chip is model S3F8S7B. All three RS485 interfaces are bidirectionally connected to the main control chip. RS485-1 and RS485-3 interfaces are used for signal acquisition, while the RS485-2 interface connects to an ESP826614 WIFI module for signal output. The SPI interface is bidirectionally connected to the main control chip for serial signal acquisition. This invention can collect data on various gases in a hospital, promptly detect abnormal gas conditions in different departments, and implement corresponding control measures. The inventors discovered that existing gas data transmission circuits, including the aforementioned patent documents, still have the following defects: the gas data is easily interfered with during the transmission process, resulting in serious noise pollution; and when using RS485 or RS232 communication lines, the direct communication link may leak information, which is not conducive to the confidentiality of gas data.

[0064] The specific steps for a gas content detection device applied to three-dimensional monitoring in confined spaces are as follows:
[0065] (1) Arrange multiple gas detectors at intervals along the height direction in a confined space, or install a gas detector movably in a confined space and make it movable in the height direction; achieve gas content detection at different height positions through the above two installation methods;
[0066] (2) The gas detector transmits the collected signals to the processor for processing via data transmission to monitor the gas content in the confined space.
[0067] Compared with existing technologies, this invention enables three-dimensional monitoring of gas content within a confined space, improving monitoring efficiency, range, and sensitivity, and significantly enhancing the safety factor; it also has the following advantages:
[0068] (1) By designing the probe body and the monitor body as detachable separate structures, and using the annular conductive rail on the probe body to achieve contact electrical connection with the spring probe on the monitor body, the signals and power supply of the probe body and the monitor body can be connected. Compared with the currently used integrated gas monitoring device, the probe can be replaced flexibly and quickly, avoiding the abandonment of the entire integrated gas monitoring device after the failure of some probes with short lifespan. In addition, the monitor body can also be connected to different probe bodies to collect and monitor different gases, further improving the flexibility of the present invention.
[0069] (2) By setting the first, second, and third side wings on one side of the sealing ring, the sealing ring as a whole forms an E-shaped longitudinal section. The first side wing seals with the outer circumference of the shell, the second side wing seals with the packing groove, and the third side wing seals with the packing gap. This creates multiple sealing surfaces between the shell and the end cap, thus greatly improving the sealing effect. By designing the sealing ring as an E-shaped longitudinal section, the sealing ring can be directly fastened to the end face of the shell opening during assembly, and then the end cap can be installed. This avoids the problem of poor sealing effect caused by displacement during assembly of traditional sealing rings. By designing the longitudinal sections of the shell and the end cap as teardrop-shaped, small droplets condensed on the shell can quickly drip down along the teardrop-shaped arc surface in some high-humidity working environments, thereby reducing the impact of high-humidity working environments on the shell.
[0070] (3) The steel wire rope of the suspended gas detector is mechanically wound and unwound by rotating the drum driven by the motor, thereby increasing the efficiency of the work. In the process of winding and unwinding, the drive gear, driven gear and limit gear work together to drive the paddle to rotate, and then the paddle touches the limit switch to stop the motor in an emergency, thereby avoiding excessive unwinding and winding during the work, thus protecting the present invention and the gas detector.
[0071] (4) A novel gas detection module is provided, comprising a CO gas sensor, an O2 gas sensor, an H2S gas sensor, a CH4 gas sensor, and structural units such as a gas detection circuit and an MCU main control circuit. This novel gas detection module with the above structural features can realize real-time monitoring of multiple components such as CO, O2, H2S, and CH4, and has good anti-interference capabilities, high monitoring sensitivity, and reliable and stable detection results. A gas data remote transmission module is also provided, comprising structural units such as a control circuit, a wireless communication circuit, a clock circuit, a remote control circuit, a display circuit, a storage circuit, and a power supply unit.

[0099] The invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific implementation examples. The description in this section is only exemplary and explanatory, and does not limit the scope of protection of the invention.
[0100] Example 1
[0101] A gas content detection device for three-dimensional monitoring in confined spaces includes a gas detector that can be fixed or moved within the confined space and a processor connected via data transmission. The gas detector is used to detect the gas content and transmit the collected signals, while the processor is used to receive and process the signals collected by the gas detector.
[0102] The gas detectors fixedly distributed within the confined space can be one or multiple detectors spaced apart along the height direction;
[0103] The gas detectors that are mobile and distributed in a confined space are gas detectors that can be moved in a controlled manner in the height direction;
[0104] The gas detector includes a probe body and a monitor body. The monitor body includes a gas detector housing with multiple sealing surfaces and a gas detection module and a gas data remote transmission module installed therein. The monitor body and the probe body are detachably connected.
[0105] Example 2
[0106] Based on the structure of Example 1, the gas detector includes a probe body A1 and a monitor body A2.
[0107] Reference Figure 2 The probe body A1 has a cylindrical structure. The top of the probe body A1 is provided with a conductive rail circuit board A101, and the conductive rail circuit board A101 and the probe body A1 are located on the same axis. Multiple concentrically arranged annular conductive rails A103 are laid on the upper surface of the conductive rail circuit board A101.
[0108] Reference Figure 3 The bottom of the monitor body A2 is provided with a ring-shaped protruding probe interface A201. The probe interface A201 contains a probe circuit board A202. The probe circuit board A202 is provided with the same number of spring probes A203 as the ring-shaped conductive rail A103.
[0109] The top of the probe body A1 is detachably connected to the probe interface A201 of the monitor body A2, and each spring probe A203 corresponds to a separate annular conductive rail A103. When the spring probe A203 contacts the annular conductive rail A103, they are electrically connected.
[0110] Additionally, a circular contact A102 can be coaxially arranged in the middle of the annular conductive rail A103 on the conductive rail circuit board A101, and a spring probe A203 corresponding to the position of the circular contact A102 is also provided on the probe circuit board A202.
[0111] By designing the probe body A1 and the monitor body A2 as detachable separate structures, and utilizing the annular conductive rail A103 on the probe body A1 and the spring probe A203 on the monitor body A2 to achieve a contact-type electrical connection, the signals and power supply of the probe body A1 and the monitor body A2 can be connected. Compared with the currently used integrated gas monitoring device, the probe body A1 can be flexibly and quickly replaced, avoiding the need for the entire integrated gas monitoring device to be discarded due to the failure of some probes with short lifespans. In addition, the monitor body A2 can also be connected to different probe bodies A1 to collect and monitor different gases, further improving the flexibility of the invention.
[0112] The monitor body A2 includes a gas detector housing with multiple sealing surfaces, including a housing B1, an end cap B2, and a sealing ring 3.
[0113] Reference Figure 6 As shown, an opening is provided on one side of the housing B1, and a packing groove B4 is provided on the end face of the opening of the housing B1.
[0114] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, end cap B2 is detachably connected to the opening of housing B1. One side of end cap B2 is provided with a positioning flange B5 that is inserted into the opening of housing B1, and a filler gap B6 is left between the outer peripheral surface of positioning flange B5 and the inner peripheral surface of the opening of housing B1.
[0115] Reference Figure 8 As shown, the sealing ring B3 is placed between the housing B1 and the end cap B2, and the width of the sealing ring B3 is adapted to the open end face of the housing B1.
[0116] The outer edge of the sealing ring B3 is provided with a first side wing B7, which is tightly fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the housing B1.
[0117] The sealing ring B3 has a second side wing B8 in the middle, and the second side wing B8 is tightly pressed into the packing groove B4.
[0118] The inner edge of the sealing ring 3 is provided with a third side wing B9, which is tightly pressed into the packing gap B6.
[0119] By setting the first side wing B7, the second side wing B8, and the third side wing B9 on one side of the sealing ring B3, the sealing ring B3 is formed into an E-shaped longitudinal section. The first side wing B7 is sealed with the outer peripheral surface of the housing B1, the second side wing B8 is sealed with the packing groove B4, and the third side wing B9 is sealed with the packing gap B6. This creates multiple sealing surfaces between the housing B1 and the end cap B2, thereby greatly improving the sealing effect.
[0120] In addition, by designing the sealing ring B3 as an E-shaped longitudinal section structure, the sealing ring B3 can be directly snapped onto the end face of the opening of the housing B1 during assembly, and then the end cover B2 can be installed. This avoids the problem that the traditional sealing ring B3 is prone to displacement during assembly, resulting in poor sealing performance.
[0121] Example 3
[0122] Based on the structure of Example 2, the structure of the spring probe A203 is further optimized.
[0123] Reference Figure 4 The spring probe A203 includes a conductive cap A401, a spring A403, and a cylindrical body A404. The top A405 of the cylindrical body is tapered, and the bottom of the cylindrical body A404 is vertically welded to the probe circuit board A202. The bottom of the conductive cap A401 extends into the cylindrical body A404 from the top A405, and the bottom of the conductive cap A401 is provided with a limiting rolled edge A402 that matches the tapered top of the cylindrical body A404. The spring A403 is located inside the cylindrical body A404, and the upper and lower ends of the spring A403 support the conductive cap A401 and the probe circuit board A202, respectively.
[0124] The top of the probe body A1 is detachably connected to the probe interface A201 of the monitor body A2, and each spring probe A203 corresponds to a single annular conductive rail A103. When the spring probe A203 contacts the annular conductive rail A103, they are electrically connected. The spring A403 in the spring probe A203 makes close contact with the annular conductive rail A103 through the elastic support conductive cap A401, thereby increasing the reliability of the circuit connection.
[0125] In addition, to increase conductivity, the material of the cylinder A404 and the conductive cap A401 in the spring probe A203 is preferably copper alloy, and the material of the circular contact A102 and the annular conductive rail A103 on the conductive rail circuit board A101 is also preferably copper alloy.
[0126] Based on the above, the detachable structure of the probe body A1 and the monitor body A2 is optimized, specifically as follows:
[0127] The top of the probe body A1 is threaded into the probe interface A201 of the monitor body A2.
[0128] The top of the probe body A1 is inserted into the probe interface A201 of the monitor body A2.
[0129] Example 4
[0130] This embodiment is a further optimization based on embodiment 2, specifically:
[0131] The outer edges of the first side wing B7, the second side wing B8, and the third side wing B9 on the sealing ring B3 are all arc-shaped. The arc-shaped ends facilitate alignment and insertion of the corresponding filler, thus facilitating assembly.
[0132] In addition, the lengths of the first side wing B7 and the third side wing B9 can be greater than that of the second side wing B8, which further facilitates the squeezing of the second side wing B8 into the packing groove B4 to form a sealing effect.
[0133] The housing B1 and end cap B2 are made of resin to increase their corrosion resistance. The longitudinal section of the housing B1 and end cap B2 is teardrop-shaped. The teardrop-shaped structure allows small droplets that condense on the housing to drip quickly along the curved surface of the teardrop shape in some high-humidity working environments, thereby preventing water droplets from adhering to the housing surface for a long time and reducing the impact on the housing.
[0134] Example 5
[0135] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 2, referring to... Figure 9 and Figure 10 The gas content detection device applied to three-dimensional monitoring in confined spaces also includes a point controller for the gas detector (which enables the gas detector to move in the height direction within the confined space to achieve three-dimensional monitoring), including a motor C1, a housing C2, a roller C3, a main shaft C5, and a limit switch C14.
[0136] An opening is provided on one side of the housing C2. The motor C1 is vertically mounted on the housing C2. The shaft of the motor C1 extends into the housing C2 and is connected to the worm gear C15. The roller C3 is fixed on the main shaft C5 and is rotatably connected to the inside of the housing C2 through the main shaft C5. A turbine C16 that cooperates with the worm gear C15 is installed on one side of the roller C3.
[0137] A steel wire rope is wound around the outer circumference of the drum C3. One end of the steel wire rope is fixed to the drum, and the other end of the steel wire rope is a free end that extends out from the opening of the housing C2.
[0138] One end of the main shaft C5 extends out of the housing C2 and is connected to the drive gear C6. On one side of the drive gear C6, there is a driven gear C9 and a limit gear C10 that are rotatably connected to the housing C2. The driven gear C9 has a top half tooth C7 and a bottom full tooth C8. The half tooth C7 and the full tooth C8 are arranged coaxially.
[0139] The full toothed part C8 meshes with the driving gear C6, and the half toothed part C7 meshes with the limiting gear C10. A paddle C11 is fixedly connected to one side of the limiting gear C10.
[0140] Limit switch C14 is located below limit gear C10 and is fixedly connected to housing C2. Limit switch C14 is switched by the rotation angle of lever C11. Limit switch C14 is connected in series in the power supply circuit of motor C1.
[0141] The mechanical winding and unwinding of the steel wire rope suspending the gas detector is achieved by driving the drum C3 to rotate via motor C1, thereby increasing work efficiency. During the winding and unwinding process, the drive gear C6, driven gear C9, and limit gear C10 work together to drive the lever C11 to rotate. Then, the lever C11 touches the limit switch C14 to stop the motor C1 in an emergency, thereby avoiding over-winding and over-winding faults during operation, thus protecting the invention and the gas detector.
[0142] Example 6
[0143] This embodiment further optimizes the structure of the limit switch 14 based on embodiment 5, specifically:
[0144] Reference Figure 9 The limit switch C14 includes an insulator C13, on which two inclined metal springs C12 are fixedly connected. The tops of the two metal springs C12 are free ends and are electrically connected in contact.
[0145] In this embodiment, the power supply circuit of motor C1 is turned on by two metal springs C12 connected by contact. When the lever C11 rotates, it touches the metal springs C12 and causes displacement, thereby closing the limit switch C14.
[0146] In addition, when the lever C11 rotates and touches one of the metal springs C12, the wire rope is completely retracted onto the drum C3, and when the lever C11 rotates and touches the other metal spring C12, the wire rope is completely released.
[0147] By matching the rotation angle of the lever C11 with the length of the wire rope, the power supply to the motor C1 can be actively disconnected when the wire rope is fully released and retracted.
[0148] In addition, a guide wheel C4 is rotatably connected to the front of the opening on the housing C2. The free end of the wire rope passes around the guide wheel C4 and is tied to the gas detector. The guide wheel C4 guides the wire rope, which not only makes the winding and unwinding of the wire smoother, but also prevents the wire rope from wearing down the housing C2 when it is close to it.
[0149] A bearing C17 is provided between the housing C2 and the spindle C5. By adding the bearing C17, the rotational friction between the housing C2 and the spindle C5 is reduced, making the spindle C5 rotate more smoothly.
[0150] The outer circumferential surface of the drum C3 is provided with a spiral groove that is compatible with the wire rope. By adding a spiral groove to the outer circumferential surface of the drum C3, the wire rope can be neatly wound around the drum C3 along the groove when winding up.

The CH4 gas detection circuit includes a bias current amplifier U5A, which is an ADA4505 bias current amplifier chip. The +IN A pin of the bias current amplifier U5A is connected to the positive output terminal (CH4-S+ terminal) of the CH4 gas sensor via a current-limiting resistor R15 (2K resistance).
