Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for detecting ambient gas in a tunnel around a gas storage reservoir. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of the social economy and the increasing demand for natural gas, in order to meet the demand for natural gas, increase the storage volume of natural gas, underground gas storage reservoirs have been built throughout China.

[0003] A gas storage reservoir, that is, a container for storing natural gas, refers to an artificial gas field or gas reservoir formed by injecting the natural gas produced from a natural gas field into a space underground where the gas can be stored again at a different location. Generally, it is an underground gas storage reservoir. It is usually built near the downstream area where natural gas is used in cities. The operation of the gas storage reservoir is carried out on an annual basis, and the operation process is "producing gas in winter and spring, and injecting gas in summer and autumn".

[0004] In the prior art, when detecting the ambient gas in a tunnel around a gas storage reservoir, generally, an operator holds a detection instrument by hand and performs gas detection along the inner wall of the tunnel. This not only has low detection efficiency, but also increases the labor intensity of manual operation. At the same time, it is easy to cause missed detection and cannot achieve rapid and accurate positioning. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a technical solution for a method for detecting ambient gas in a tunnel around a gas storage reservoir in view of the deficiencies of the prior art. The steps of this ambient gas detection method are simple. It not only improves the detection efficiency of the ambient gas in the tunnel around the gas storage reservoir, but also can quickly determine the leakage points on the inner wall and the ground of the tunnel, facilitating timely repair of the inner wall and the ground of the tunnel. At the same time, it greatly reduces the labor intensity of manual operation and has accurate positioning.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] 1) Rail laying

[0009] a. First, clean both sides of the ground of the tunnel to ensure that the rails are laid horizontally;

[0010] b. Then, determine the laying length of the rails according to the length and width of the tunnel, and install the rails in parallel along both sides of the ground of the tunnel, and two rails are installed on each side;

[0011] 2) Support seat installation

[0012] a. First, determine the size of the support base according to the distance between two slide rails on the same side, select a plate body with a suitable size, symmetrically open guide grooves along one side of the plate body, and then symmetrically open chutes at the bottom of the plate body that match the size of the slide rails. The distance between the two chutes matches the distance between the two slide rails.

[0013] b. Then, install a driving component on the plate body. The driving component is close to the chute, and a height adjustment component is installed along the side close to the guide groove. At the same time, select a controller and a third battery pack, install the controller and the third battery pack inside the plate body, and connect them through wires.

[0014] c. Next, place the installed support base on the slide rails, with the side with the guide groove facing away from the tunnel inner wall.

[0015] 3) Installation of the ground gas detection mechanism

[0016] a. First, move the two support bases to be in the same vertical plane, measure the horizontal distance between the two support bases, and then determine the size of the cantilever assembly according to the horizontal distance, and fabricate the corresponding cantilever assembly.

[0017] b. Then, install the two ends of the cantilever assembly on the support bases on both sides, connect the cantilever assembly with the height adjustment component, and then cover the top of the plate body with a cover plate, and fix and install the cover plate and the plate body with screws.

[0018] c. Next, determine the size of the ground gas detection component according to the size of the cantilever assembly, process the corresponding ground gas detection component, install the ground gas detection component on the cantilever assembly, and electrically connect both the ground gas detection component and the cantilever assembly to the controller.

[0020] a. First, determine the size of the annular guide component according to the inner wall radian of the tunnel, splice the corresponding annular guide component, and install the processed annular guide component between the two support bases.

[0021] b. Then, determine the size of the tunnel inner wall gas detection mechanism according to the distance between the annular guide component and the tunnel inner wall, and install the tunnel inner wall gas detection mechanism on the annular guide component. Both the annular guide component and the tunnel inner wall gas detection mechanism are electrically connected to the controller in the support base.

[0022] 5) Tunnel gas detection

[0023] a. First, the circuits of the support seat, the ground gas detection mechanism, the annular guide assembly and the tunnel inner wall gas detection mechanism are turned on, and the height adjustment assembly is controlled to descend through the control terminal, so that the suspension beam assembly is close to the ground of the tunnel until the ground gas detection assembly is 20 to 30 cm above the ground, and then the ground gas detection assembly is started, so that the ground gas detection assembly moves back and forth on the suspension beam assembly along the width direction of the tunnel at a speed of 1 to 2 m / min;

[0024] b. Then start the annular guide assembly, so that the tunnel inner wall gas detection mechanism moves in an arc along the tunnel inner wall at a speed of 0.5-1m / min under the action of the annular guide assembly;

[0025] c. After the ground gas detection mechanism and the tunnel inner wall gas detection mechanism have completed the detection in the same vertical plane, the driving assembly in the support seat is started to drive the ground gas detection mechanism and the tunnel inner wall gas detection mechanism to move along the slide rail a distance in the length direction of the support seat, and the ground and inner wall of the tunnel are detected simultaneously in the next vertical plane. When the type and concentration of the gas are detected on the ground and / or inner wall of the tunnel, a signal is sent to the control terminal;

[0026] d. After the environmental gas detection of the entire tunnel is completed, remove the support seat and dismantle the slide rail.

[0027] The environmental gas detection method has simple steps, which not only improves the efficiency of environmental gas detection in tunnels around the gas storage reservoir, but also can quickly determine the leakage points on the inner wall and the ground of the tunnel, making it convenient to repair the inner wall and the ground of the tunnel in time.

[0031] Furthermore, the ground gas detection assembly includes a horizontal plate, a lifting plate, a cylinder, a gas pump, and a second substrate. Third rollers are provided on the bottom surface of the horizontal plate. The third rollers are movably connected to the guide groove.

A first substrate and a first battery pack are arranged on the moving plate. A first lighting lamp, a first gas concentration sensor, a signal transceiver and a first camera are arranged on the first substrate. Through the design of the ears and the fixing blocks, it can be ensured that while the transmission belt moves, it drives the moving plate to move along the arc-shaped frame.

The driving guide wheel 12 is connected to the auxiliary guide wheel 8 through the transmission belt 9. The first motor 10 can drive the first transmission rod 11 to rotate, and then drive the driving guide wheels 12 on both sides to rotate, so that the transmission belt 9 moves, and then drives the gas detection mechanism 14 on the inner wall of the tunnel to move, meeting the gas detection requirements for the inner wall of the tunnel, improving safety. The auxiliary guide wheel 8 improves the stability and reliability of the movement of the transmission belt 9.

[0073] b. Then, determine the size of the gas detection mechanism 14 on the inner wall of the tunnel according to the distance between the annular guiding assembly 5 and the inner wall of the tunnel, and install the gas detection mechanism 14 on the inner wall of the tunnel on the annular guiding assembly 5. Both the annular guiding assembly 5 and the gas detection mechanism 14 on the inner wall of the tunnel are electrically connected to the controller 27 in the support base 3; both the ground gas detection assembly 45 and the gas detection mechanism 14 on the inner wall of the tunnel move at a constant speed.

[0074] The gas detection mechanism 14 for the inner wall of the tunnel includes a moving plate 15 and a first substrate 16. On both sides of the moving plate 15, ear plates 22 are symmetrically arranged. The ear plates 22 are connected to the transmission belt 9 through fixing blocks 23. On both sides of the bottom surface of the moving plate 15, retaining strips 24 are symmetrically arranged. The retaining strips 24 are limited to the arc-shaped frame 6. On the bottom surface of the moving plate 15, first rollers 25 are arranged. The first rollers 25 are supported on the arc-shaped frame 6. On the moving plate 15, there are a first substrate 16 and a first battery pack 21. On the first substrate 16, there are a first lighting lamp 17, a first gas concentration sensor 18, a signal transceiver 19, and a first camera 20. Through the design of the ear plates 22 and the fixing blocks 23, it can be ensured that while the transmission belt 9 moves, it drives the moving plate 15 to move along the arc-shaped frame 6. The retaining strips 24 improve the stability and reliability of the moving plate 15 during movement. The first rollers 25 can reduce the friction when the moving plate 15 moves and reduce wear. The first battery pack 21 is used to supply electrical energy to the first lighting lamp 17, the first gas concentration sensor 18, the signal transceiver 19, and the first camera 20. The first lighting lamp 17 is used to illuminate a local position on the inner wall of the tunnel to improve the shooting effect of the first camera 20. The signal transceiver 19 is used to receive and send signals to the control end. The signal transceiver 19 can be a wireless DMX512 signal transceiver 19. The first gas concentration sensor 18 is used to detect the gas on the inner wall of the tunnel. The gas in the gas storage tank mainly refers to methane, sulfur dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide gases. Therefore, the corresponding first gas concentration sensor 18 can select a KG9701B type methane sensor, an MP-4 methane sensor, an ME3-SO2 sulfur dioxide sensor, an SO2-B4 sulfur dioxide sensor, an H2S / S-200 hydrogen sulfide sensor.

[0076] a. First, conduct the circuits of the support base 3, the ground gas detection mechanism 4, the annular guiding component 5, and the gas detection mechanism 14 for the inner wall of the tunnel. Through the control terminal, control the height adjustment component to descend, so that the cantilever component approaches the ground of the tunnel until the ground gas detection component 45 is at a height of 20 - 30 cm from the ground. Then start the ground gas detection component 45, and make the ground gas detection component 45 move back and forth along the width direction of the tunnel on the cantilever component at a speed of 1 - 2 m / min.

[0077] b. Then start the annular guiding component 5, so that the gas detection mechanism 14 for the inner wall of the tunnel moves along the inner wall of the tunnel in an arc at a speed of 0.5 - 1 m / min under the action of the annular guiding component 5.

[0078] c. After the local gas detection mechanism 4 and the tunnel inner wall gas detection mechanism 14 complete the detection in the same vertical plane, start the drive assembly in the support base 3 to drive the local gas detection mechanism 4 and the tunnel inner wall gas detection mechanism 14 to move a distance in the length direction of the support base 3 along the slide rail 1, and simultaneously detect the ground and inner wall of the tunnel in the next vertical plane. When the types and concentrations of gases are detected on the ground and / or inner wall of the tunnel, send a signal to the control terminal;

[0079] d. After the environmental gas detection of the entire tunnel is completed, remove the support base 3 and remove the slide rail 1.

[0080] The steps of this environmental gas detection method are simple. It not only improves the detection efficiency of the environmental gas in the tunnel around the gas storage, but also can quickly determine the leakage points on the inner wall and ground of the tunnel, facilitating the timely repair of the inner wall and ground of the tunnel. At the same time, it greatly reduces the labor intensity of manual operation and has accurate positioning.
