The instrument dry air system 1 and the instrument nitrogen backup system 2 are connected in parallel, and also include a common pipeline 3 for connecting the instrument dry air system 1 and the instrument nitrogen backup system 2; Reference Figure 1 The instrument dry air system supply pipeline is provided with a check valve 4 and a pressure regulating valve 5, and the instrument nitrogen backup system supply pipeline is provided with a check valve 4 and a pressure regulating valve 5. The check valve 4 common pipeline 3 is provided with a pressure sensor 6 and a pressure regulating relief valve. The pressure sensor 6 is located behind the pressure regulating relief valve and close to the actuator. Under the action of the check valve 4 and the pressure regulating valve 5, the possibility of air entering the nitrogen pipeline due to high pressure in the air pipeline and causing system contamination risk when the system fails is reduced; and it can be ensured that the backup nitrogen can still be supplied after the instrument air loses its gas source due to reasons such as the device jumping, so as to ensure the reliability of the system.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 A pneumatic valve 7 is provided on the supply pipeline of the instrument dry air system. When a failure occurs in the instrument dry air system 1, the pneumatic valve 7 opens, and the supply pipeline of the instrument nitrogen backup system transports nitrogen to the common pipeline 3 and then to the actuator, thereby ensuring the reliable operation of the system.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 Furthermore, two parallel pipelines 8 are provided on the common pipeline 3, and both parallel pipelines 8 are provided with regulating valves 9; under the action of the regulating valves 9, when the parallel pipelines 8 are damaged, the regulating valves 9 can be isolated and replaced without disturbance to ensure that the system online pressure is normal and reliable; further, in the embodiment of the present application, the number of regulating valves 9 on one parallel pipeline 8 is one, and the number of regulating valves 9 on the other parallel pipeline 8 is two.

Before the supplied gas enters the actuator, it is filtered through the final filter 10 to filter out impurities carried in the gas, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the supplied gas.

[0025] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4When the supply pipeline of the instrument dry air system is damaged, the supply pipeline of the instrument nitrogen backup system needs to supply nitrogen to the actuator in time. However, during the delivery of nitrogen, due to the flow rate limitation, the delivery time of nitrogen is relatively long. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, a reducer 11 is provided in the supply pipeline of the instrument nitrogen backup system. The reducer 11 is cone-shaped with the tip facing the air inlet end. The reducer 11 is used to reduce the flow diameter of nitrogen in the supply pipeline of the instrument nitrogen backup system. The inner wall of the supply pipeline of the instrument nitrogen backup system is provided with a spiral groove 12. The spiral groove 1 The starting end of 2 corresponds to the reducer 11, and the spiral groove 12 extends toward the common pipeline 3; when the nitrogen passes through the instrument nitrogen backup system supply pipeline, it first passes through the reducer 11. At this time, the diameter of the reducer 11 increases and approaches the inner wall of the supply pipeline to reduce the flow diameter of the nitrogen, thereby increasing the flow rate of the nitrogen; further, when the nitrogen passes through the reducer 11, part of the nitrogen enters the spiral groove 12 and flows along the spiral groove 12. At this time, the nitrogen flows in a spiral in the supply pipeline, further increasing the flow rate of the nitrogen, thereby supplying the nitrogen to the actuator in time.

The length direction of the mounting rod 111 is parallel to the length direction of the supply pipeline and is coaxial with the supply pipeline. The umbrella-shaped frame is covered with an elastic cloth 113, and an unfolding member is arranged on the mounting rod. The unfolding member is used to drive the umbrella-shaped frame to unfold and drive the elastic cloth 113 to unfold; when nitrogen is supplied, the unfolding member first acts on the umbrella-shaped frame to unfold the umbrella-shaped frame, and the elastic cloth 113 is unfolded during the unfolding process of the umbrella-shaped frame, thereby reducing the flow channel of nitrogen in the supply pipeline, and the operation is simple and convenient; further, the elastic cloth 113 is made of rubber, which reduces the possibility of nitrogen passing through the elastic cloth 113.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4In the embodiment of the present application, the umbrella-shaped skeleton includes a plurality of support rods 112 arranged on the mounting rod 111, the elastic cloth 113 is fixedly arranged on the edge of the support rod 112, the plurality of support rods 112 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the mounting rod 111 and are hinged on the mounting rod 111, the hinge axis of the support rod 112 is perpendicular to the length direction of the mounting rod 111, a mounting ring 114 is slidably sleeved on the mounting rod 111, the mounting ring 114 slides along the length direction of the mounting rod 111, an inclined rod 115 corresponding to the support rod 112 is arranged on the mounting ring 114, and the two ends of the inclined rod 115 are respectively hinged on the mounting ring 114 and the support rod 112, and the unfolding member is used to drive the mounting ring 114 to slide along the mounting rod 111; the unfolding member includes a micro motor 116 and a lead screw 117 rotatably arranged on the mounting rod 111, the lead screw 117 is coaxially arranged on the output shaft of the micro motor 116, and the mounting ring 114 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 117. When the umbrella-shaped frame is unfolded, the micro motor 116 is started, and the micro motor 116 drives the lead screw 117 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 117 drives the mounting ring 114 to slide along the mounting ring 114. The sliding of the mounting ring 114 drives the inclined rod 115 to rotate. The rotation of the inclined rod 115 drives the support rod 112 to rotate, and then drives the elastic cloth 113 to rotate and unfold in the supply pipeline. The operation is simple and convenient. At the same time, under the action of the threaded fixation of the lead screw 117, it is convenient to fix the mounting ring 114 in the moved position, so that the elastic cloth 113 can remain in the unfolded state.

[0030] The implementation principle of the instrument gas backup system of a high-purity nitrogen device in the embodiment of the present application is: Under the action of the check valve 4 and the pressure regulating valve 5, the possibility of air entering the nitrogen pipeline due to high pressure in the air pipeline and causing system contamination risk when the system fails is reduced; and it can be ensured that when the device jumps, the instrument air can still be supplied by the backup nitrogen after losing the gas source, thereby ensuring the reliability of the system; when the nitrogen passes through the instrument nitrogen backup system supply pipeline, it first passes through the umbrella-shaped skeleton. At this time, the diameter of the umbrella-shaped skeleton increases and approaches the inner wall of the supply pipeline to reduce the flow diameter of the nitrogen, thereby increasing the flow rate of the nitrogen; further, when the nitrogen passes through the umbrella-shaped skeleton, part of the nitrogen enters the spiral groove 12 and flows along the spiral groove 12. At this time, the nitrogen flows in a spiral in the supply pipeline, further increasing the flow rate of the nitrogen, thereby supplying nitrogen to the actuator in time.
