Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of gas cylinder design, and in particular to an elliptical LNG gas cylinder. Background Art

[0002] At present, with the continuous rise in fuel costs and labor costs and the fierce competition in the aviation transportation industry, the traditional transportation industry has been hit hard. As the traditional transportation industry continues to seek opportunities to reduce operating costs, liquefied natural gas vehicles have attracted widespread attention from the automotive industry around the world due to their advantages in low fuel prices, clean and environmentally friendly, and long driving range. They have become one of the key advantages for companies to continue to maintain their competitive vitality. This is because liquefied natural gas (LNG) is formed by the liquefaction of natural gas at a temperature of -162°C. Its main component is methane. It is a clean energy source that causes much less pollution to the environment than oil and coal. Density 430-470 (kg / m 3 ), which is three times that of CNG, with a large storage capacity and long driving range for the same volume.

[0003] However, with the rapid development of the transportation industry, the requirements for the endurance of on-board LNG cylinders are getting higher and higher. However, the traditional on-board LNG cylinders have a certain limit in volume, which leads to limited endurance of the car. Based on this, CN113324173A discloses a vehicle-mounted LNG cylinder, which includes a base; a bottle body, including an outer shell and an inner shell, the outer shell is connected to the base, and the inner shell is arranged inside the outer shell; the outer shell matches the shape of the inner shell; a pipeline assembly is connected to the bottle body, and the pipeline assembly is used to connect the interior of the inner shell and the external equipment of the bottle body; wherein the cross-sectional shape of the inner shell is elliptical. The above-mentioned vehicle-mounted LNG cylinder, for the existing back double-bottle setting, under the condition of the same length, cross-sectional width and cross-sectional height, that is, the size of the space for arranging the LNG cylinder on the car remains unchanged, the traditional circular cross-sectional double cylinder is changed to a single cylinder with an elliptical cross-sectional shape, which can not only effectively increase the volume of the bottle body, further increase the user's cruising range, but also achieve cost reduction and lightweight.

[0004] However, the vehicle-mounted LNG cylinder adopts an oval-shaped design, which causes stress concentration on the surface of the bottle body, resulting in low overall strength of the LNG cylinder and easy damage due to stress concentration points caused by collisions during use. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an elliptical LNG gas cylinder to solve the stress concentration problem caused by the uneven surface stress distribution of the elliptical bottle body, so that the overall strength of the LNG gas cylinder is low and it is easy to generate stress concentration points and be damaged due to collision during use.

[0006] To achieve this object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
