Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] See also Figure 1-7 , the present invention provides a technical solution: Example

[0028] A monitoring device for pressure, temperature and positioning of a tank container comprises a base 1, a top frame 4 is fixed on the top of the base 1 through a column 3, and the bottom of the display 10 is fixed to the upper end of the base 1 through a support. The top of the tank container 2 is connected to the lower end of the top frame 4, so as to further realize the installation and fixation of the tank container 2;

[0029] The upper end of the base 1 is fixed with a tank container 2 through a bracket 9, and the top of the bracket 9 is provided with an arc groove for clamping the tank container 2, so as to prevent the tank container 2 from rolling off the bracket 9, thereby further realizing the installation and fixation of the tank container 2;

[0030] The gas phase pipeline 8 on the tank container 2 is connected to the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 through the branch pipe 7, the end of the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 is connected to the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 through the connecting pipe 15, and the end of the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 is connected to the terminal pipe 12;

[0031] A groove 29 for storing coolant is provided in the middle of the upper end of the base 1, and the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 and the heat dissipation fins 16 fixed on the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 are immersed in the coolant, so that the gas inside the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 can be cooled by heat dissipation and cooling of the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 and the heat dissipation fins 16;

[0032] The heat dissipation fins 16 can absorb the heat from the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 and quickly diffuse the heat into the coolant to achieve a rapid cooling effect.

[0033] A heat dissipation mechanism is installed on the first heat dissipation pipeline 14, and the heat dissipation mechanism is used to dissipate heat from the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 through a fan 20 and a water cooling system;

[0034] The heat dissipation mechanism includes a top heat dissipation plate 22 and a bottom heat dissipation plate 17 connected between the two groups of brackets 9 , and a vertical portion of the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 passes through the top heat dissipation plate 22 and the bottom heat dissipation plate 17 .

[0035] Such a configuration allows the heat transferred by the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 to be diffused into the air when the top heat dissipation plate 22 and the bottom heat dissipation plate 17 are in contact with the air, thereby dissipating the heat of the gas inside the first heat dissipation pipeline 14, and is used to reduce the temperature of the gas flowing into the terminal pipe 12, thereby satisfying the conventional pressure sensor 6 for detecting the gas pressure inside the terminal pipe 12;

[0036] The rear upper end of the bottom heat sink 17 is connected to the top heat sink 22 through a vertical plate 19, and a plurality of sets of fans 20 are fixed on the vertical plate 19 at equal intervals. The fans 20 are used to introduce air into the space formed between the two sets of brackets 9, the top heat sink 22 and the bottom heat sink 17;

[0037] In this way, the fan 20 can introduce air and form air convection in the space formed between the two sets of brackets 9, the top heat sink 22 and the bottom heat sink 17, further improving the efficiency of heat dissipation of the first heat dissipation pipeline 14;

[0038] An upwardly inclined guard plate 18 is provided at the front of the bottom heat dissipation plate 17 , and the guard plate 18 is used to prevent the coolant on the bottom heat dissipation plate 17 from flowing out.

[0039] The water cooling system sprays the coolant into the heat dissipation mechanism, and the coolant in the heat dissipation mechanism circulates and falls into the groove 29 through the cooling mechanism 28 at the bottom of the heat dissipation mechanism. The cooling mechanism 28 combines the coolant and the air under the impact of the coolant to achieve cooling of the coolant.

[0040] The water cooling system includes two groups of coolant pumps 5 fixed on the base 1, and the liquid inlet pipe inside the groove 29 is connected to the liquid inlet of the coolant pump 5, and the liquid outlet of the coolant pump 5 is connected to the cross pipe 24 through the first pipe 25, and the cross pipe 24 is connected to a plurality of groups of nozzles 26 on the inner wall of the bracket 9, and the plurality of groups of nozzles 26 extend between the top heat sink 22 and the bottom heat sink 17.

[0041] The PLC controller controls the coolant pump 5 to work, and introduces the coolant in the groove 29 into the nozzle 26 through the liquid inlet pipe, the first pipe 25 and the transverse pipe 24, and finally sprays the coolant through the nozzle 26, so that not only the space formed between the two groups of brackets 9, the top heat sink 22 and the bottom heat sink 17 can be cooled, but also the vertical part of the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 can be cooled, so as to further improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the first heat dissipation pipeline 14;

[0042] The bottom of the bottom heat sink 17 is provided with a plurality of groups of inclined grooves 21, and the bottom of the inclined grooves 21 is provided with openings 23; the inclined grooves 21 are arranged in a shape of being wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, so that the coolant sprayed from the nozzle 26 can be smoothly collected through the inclined grooves 21 after falling to the bottom heat sink 17, and then enter the rectangular tube 282 through the openings 23;

[0043] The cooling mechanism 28 includes a fixing frame 281 fixed to the outer side of the lower end of the opening 23, a plurality of rectangular tubes 282 provided at the lower end of the fixing frame 281, a rotating shaft 284 provided inside the rectangular tube 282, and an impeller 285 provided on the rotating shaft 284. The upper and lower ends of the rotating shaft 284 are sleeved with a bearing seat 287, and the bearing seat 287 is fixed to the inner wall of the rectangular tube 282 through a connecting arm 286. A plurality of air inlet grooves 283 are provided on the side of the rectangular tube 282.

[0044] When the coolant on the bottom heat sink 17 enters the rectangular cylinder 282 through the opening 23, the coolant impacts the impeller 285 on the rotating shaft 284, so that the rotating shaft 284 drives the impeller 285 to rotate, so that the impeller 285 can further evenly disperse the coolant flowing through the rectangular cylinder 282, so that the air entering the rectangular cylinder 282 through the air inlet groove 283 is fully combined with the coolant flowing through the rectangular cylinder 282, so as to achieve cooling of the coolant;

[0045] After the coolant falls to the groove 29 through the bottom of the rectangular tube 282, the coolant is recycled and the coolant is kept at a certain temperature to dissipate heat and cool down the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 and the heat dissipation fins 16, and further cool down the gas inside the second heat dissipation pipeline 13, so as to reduce the temperature of the gas flowing into the terminal pipe 12, and meet the requirements of the conventional pressure sensor 6 for detecting the gas pressure inside the terminal pipe 12;

[0046] The terminal pipe 12 is provided with a temperature sensor 27 and a pressure sensor 6 in sequence, and the tank container 2 is installed with a GPS positioning module 11. The GPS positioning module 11, the temperature sensor 27 and the pressure sensor 6 are electrically connected to a processor, and the processor is electrically connected to a display 10.

[0047] The processor is a PLC controller, the temperature sensor 27 is used to detect the temperature data of the gas inside the terminal pipe 12, the pressure sensor 6 is used to detect the air pressure data of the gas inside the terminal pipe 12, the GPS positioning module 11 is used to determine the position data of the tank container 2, and the temperature data, air pressure data and position data are displayed and deleted through the display 10.

[0048] A solenoid valve located between the temperature sensor 27 and the pressure sensor 6 may also be provided on the terminal pipeline 12. When the temperature data detected by the temperature sensor 27 reaches a temperature that the pressure sensor 6 can withstand, the PLC controller controls the solenoid valve to open, so that the conventional pressure sensor 6 can be used to detect the pressure of the gas in the terminal pipeline 12.

[0049] Specifically, when in use, the gas inside the tank container 2 is introduced into the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 via the gas phase pipeline 8 and the branch pipe 7, then introduced into the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 via the connecting pipe 15, and finally introduced into the terminal pipeline 12;

[0050] At the same time, the PLC controller controls the coolant pump 5 to work, and introduces the coolant inside the groove 29 into the nozzle 26 through the liquid inlet pipe, the first pipe 25 and the cross pipe 24, and finally makes the coolant spray out through the nozzle 26;

[0051] The gas in the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 transfers the temperature to the first heat dissipation pipeline 14, and the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 transfers the temperature to the top heat dissipation plate 22 and the bottom heat dissipation plate 17. When the top heat dissipation plate 22 and the bottom heat dissipation plate 17 are in contact with the air, the heat transferred by the first heat dissipation pipeline 14 can be diffused into the air, thereby playing a role in heat dissipation for the gas inside the first heat dissipation pipeline 14;

[0052] When the coolant on the bottom heat sink 17 enters the rectangular cylinder 282 through the opening 23, the coolant impacts the impeller 285 on the rotating shaft 284, so that the rotating shaft 284 drives the impeller 285 to rotate, and the impeller 285 further evenly disperses the coolant flowing through the rectangular cylinder 282, so that the air entering the rectangular cylinder 282 through the air inlet groove 283 is fully combined with the coolant flowing through the rectangular cylinder 282, so as to achieve cooling of the coolant;

[0053] The coolant falls from the bottom of the rectangular tube 282 to the groove 29 to dissipate heat and cool the second heat dissipation pipeline 13 and the heat dissipation fins 16, and further cools the gas inside the second heat dissipation pipeline 13, so as to reduce the temperature of the gas flowing into the terminal pipe 12, thereby meeting the gas pressure detection of the gas inside the terminal pipe 12 by the conventional pressure sensor 6.

[0054] The temperature sensor 27 is used to detect the temperature data of the gas inside the terminal pipe 12, the pressure sensor 6 is used to detect the air pressure data of the gas inside the terminal pipe 12, the GPS positioning module 11 is used to determine the position data of the tank container 2, and the temperature data, air pressure data and position data are displayed and deleted through the display 10.

[0055] The present invention is to lead out a branch pipe system (i.e., gas phase pipeline 8, branch pipe 7, first heat dissipation pipeline 14, connecting pipe 15, second heat dissipation pipeline 13 and terminal pipe 12) from the tank container 2, and add a heat dissipation device (i.e., heat dissipation mechanism), and install a conventional pressure sensor 6 at the end of the branch pipe system, so that the conventional pressure sensor 6 can also be used on the high-temperature tank container 2. Thereby, the manufacturing cost and subsequent maintenance cost of the tank container 2 are reduced, thereby improving the economic benefits of using the tank container 2.
