[0022] In the safe construction of ships, the use of CO2 gas fire extinguishing systems is a key safety measure for possible fire situations on ships. CO2 cylinders are usually installed in dedicated CO2 cabins on the deck, which store a large number of CO2 cylinders to ensure that CO2 gas can be released quickly and effectively to extinguish fires when fires occur.

[0023] In order to ensure that CO2 cylinders can be used normally when needed, regular maintenance and inspection are essential. At present, inspections on CO2 cylinders are usually carried out by weighing. This method involves measuring the weight of each CO2 cylinder and counting these weight data to determine the total weight of CO2 cylinders in the entire CO2 system. By regularly checking the weight of CO2 cylinders, ship managers can promptly detect whether any CO2 cylinder has leaks, damage or other abnormalities. If the weight of a CO2 cylinder is abnormal, it may mean that the CO2 gas is leaking or there are other problems, which require timely repair or replacement to ensure that the CO2 fire extinguishing system can work reliably in the event of a fire.

[0024] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, the inventors believe that the CO2 cylinders are fixed in the frame, are very heavy, and are in large quantities, so the weighing process is very cumbersome, complicated, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0025] In order to facilitate the rapid weighing of CO2 gas cylinders and reduce the operating difficulty for operators, the present application provides a gas cylinder weighing structure.

[0026] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0027] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0028] The following is combined with Figure 1-2 This application is described in further detail.

[0029] The present application embodiment discloses a gas cylinder weighing structure. Figure 1 , Figure 2 A gas cylinder weighing structure includes a weighing scale body 1 for weighing weight, and a support assembly 2 is arranged at the top of the weighing scale body 1, and the support assembly 2 is used to provide support for the weighing scale body 1 so as to lift the gas cylinder off the ground. A connecting assembly 3 is arranged at the bottom of the weighing scale body 1, and the connecting assembly 3 is used to connect the weighing scale body 1 with the gas cylinder, so as to facilitate the quick connection of the gas cylinder and then weigh the gas cylinder. The connection point between the support assembly 2 and the weighing scale body 1, the connection point between the weighing scale body 1 and the gas cylinder, and the center of gravity of the gas cylinder are located on a straight line in the vertical direction, so as to accurately measure the weight of the gas cylinder.

[0030] In some embodiments, the weighing scale body 1 can be selected as a spring scale, and both ends of the spring scale are provided with measuring ends, the measuring end at the top is used to be connected to the support component 2, and the measuring end at the bottom is used to be connected to the connecting component 3. A display 11 is fixedly connected to the outer shell of the weighing scale body 1, and the display 11 is connected to the internal measuring element signal and is used to display the measured data value so that the operator can read it conveniently.

[0031] The support assembly 2 includes a support rod 21, and the support rod 21 includes a weighing end 211 close to one end of the weighing scale body 1 and a force-applying end 212 away from one end of the weighing scale body 1. In some embodiments, the support rod 21 includes a support shell 213 located on one side of the weighing end 211, and a support inner rod 214 is coaxially arranged on the support shell 213. The support shell 213 and the support inner rod 214 are detachably connected. In some embodiments, the support shell 213 and the support inner rod 214 can be relatively threadedly connected to facilitate the rapid disassembly of the support shell 213 and the support inner tube. When not in use, the support shell 213 and the support inner rod 214 can be relatively separated for storage.

[0032] A support ring 22 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the support shell 213, and multiple support rings 22 can be provided along the length direction of the support rod 21. The support ring 22 is located on the side of the connection point between the weighing scale body 1 and the support rod 21 away from the weighing end 211. Therefore, by connecting the support ring 22 relatively to the outside world and applying downward pressure to the force-applying end 212, the weighing end 211 is tilted upward, driving the weighing scale body 1 to move upward, and then driving the gas cylinder off the ground, and weighing the weight of the gas cylinder.

[0033] The distance between the support ring 22 and the weighing scale body 1 is smaller than the distance between the support ring 22 and the force-applying end 212 , so that the operator can reduce the degree of force applied at the force-applying end 212 , making it more convenient to lift the gas cylinder.

[0034] A lower hanging ring 23 is rotatably connected to the support rod 21 at a position relative to the weighing scale body 1 . The lower hanging ring 23 is rotatably connected to the weighing scale body 1 , and the weighing scale body 1 is relatively connected to the support rod 21 via the lower hanging ring 23 .

[0035] The connecting assembly 3 includes a horizontally arranged card plate 31, and a connecting ring 32 is arranged at the top of the card plate 31. The connecting ring 32 is a semi-annular structure. The center position of the connecting ring 32 is relatively connected to the bottom end of the weighing scale body 1, and the two ends of the connecting ring 32 are respectively fixedly connected to the top wall of the card plate 31, and the midpoint of the connecting line between the two ends of the connecting ring 32 coincides with the center line of the weighing scale body 1, so that after the gas cylinder is connected, the card plate 31 can be horizontal.

[0036] A clamping groove 311 is vertically opened on the top wall of the clamping plate 31, and the clamping groove 311 completely penetrates the clamping plate 31 in the vertical direction, and the side wall of one end of the clamping groove 311 is connected with the side wall of the clamping plate 31, so as to facilitate the bottle head valve of the gas cylinder to be extended into the inside of the clamping groove 311, and the gas cylinder is clamped on the clamping plate 31 through the bottle head valve. When the bottle head valve is completely located in the clamping groove 311, the center of gravity of the gas cylinder coincides with the center line of the weighing scale body 1.

The terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; "connected" can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
