Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of liquefied natural gas filling equipment, and in particular to a gas pre-treatment liquefaction filling protection system. Background Art

[0002] A liquefied natural gas filling machine is a device used to fill liquefied natural gas from a liquefied natural gas storage tank into a gas cylinder or other container.

[0003] At present, the LNG filling machine includes a LNG cryogenic storage tank, a cryogenic liquid pump, a filling pipeline, a gas storage cylinder and a pressure relief pipeline.

[0004] Among them, the gas cylinder is used to pack liquefied natural gas. Common gas cylinders mainly include an insulation tank, a valve body and a gas supply pipe. The valve body is set at the tank mouth of the insulation tank. The valve body is provided with a filling hole, an exhaust hole and a gas supply channel. The filling hole and the exhaust hole vertically penetrate the valve body. The filling hole and the exhaust hole are provided with a valve core mechanism. The valve core mechanism is used to control the automatic opening and closing of the corresponding filling hole or exhaust hole. The gas supply pipe is connected to the gas supply pipeline. The gas supply channel realizes the discharge of natural gas and the use of natural gas in the gas cylinder. The filling hole realizes the filling of liquefied natural gas, and the exhaust hole realizes the discharge of gasified liquefied natural gas.

[0005] When using a liquefied natural gas filling machine to fill a gas cylinder, install the gas cylinder into the liquefied natural gas filling machine, connect the filling pipeline and the pressure relief pipeline to the valve body on the gas cylinder, so that the filling pipeline pushes open the valve core mechanism in the filling hole to achieve the connection between the filling pipeline and the filling hole; similarly, the pressure relief pipeline is connected to the exhaust hole. The liquefied natural gas in the liquefied natural gas cryogenic storage tank is discharged by a cryogenic liquid pump, and the liquefied natural gas is input into the gas cylinder through the filling pipeline. At this time, part of the liquefied natural gas will be gasified due to pressure drop or temperature increase. The liquefied natural gas will be gasified into gaseous natural gas, which will cause the pressure in the gas cylinder to increase. When the pressure in the gas cylinder is too high, the natural gas will be discharged through the exhaust hole and the pressure relief pipeline.

[0006] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, when liquefied natural gas is filled, the liquefied natural gas flows in the filling pipeline, and the liquefied natural gas absorbs heat from the surrounding environment, causing the temperature of the liquefied natural gas to rise, thereby causing part of the liquefied natural gas to vaporize, thereby causing unnecessary vaporization losses. Summary of the invention

[0007] The present application provides a gas pretreatment liquefaction filling protection system, the purpose of which is to reduce the ambient temperature of the liquefied natural gas when using a liquefied natural gas filling machine to fill the liquefied natural gas, reduce the gasification of the liquefied natural gas, and thus reduce unnecessary gasification losses during the liquefied natural gas filling process.

[0008] The gas pretreatment liquefaction filling protection system provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A gas pretreatment liquefaction filling protection system comprises a liquefied natural gas supply mechanism for supplying liquefied natural gas; a gas storage cylinder for dispensing liquefied natural gas; a gas filling pipe, one end of which is connected to the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism and the other end of which is connected to the gas storage cylinder, and the gas filling pipe is detachably connected to the gas storage cylinder; an exhaust pipe, one end of which is connected to the gas storage cylinder and the exhaust pipe is detachably connected to the gas storage cylinder; a liquid nitrogen protection mechanism, the liquid nitrogen protection mechanism comprises a liquid nitrogen supply assembly and a protection sleeve, the protection sleeve is sleeved on the outside of the gas filling pipe, the inner side wall of the protection sleeve is spaced apart from the outer side wall of the gas filling pipe, and the protection sleeve is connected to the liquid nitrogen supply assembly.

[0009] By adopting the above technical scheme, the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism, the gas cylinder, the charging pipe and the exhaust pipe are arranged in coordination. When the liquefied natural gas is filled, the charging pipe is connected to the charging hole on the gas cylinder, and the exhaust pipe is connected to the exhaust hole on the gas cylinder. At this time, the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism works to discharge the liquefied natural gas into the gas cylinder through the charging pipe to realize the filling of the liquefied natural gas. During the filling process of the liquefied natural gas, part of the liquefied natural gas suffers from gasification loss, resulting in part of the liquefied natural gas being converted into gaseous natural gas. The generation of natural gas causes the pressure in the gas cylinder to increase. At this time, the natural gas is discharged from the gas cylinder through the exhaust pipe, which can ensure the pressure in the gas cylinder, and then ensure that a sufficient amount of liquefied natural gas can be loaded into the gas cylinder.

[0010] The liquid nitrogen protection mechanism is configured by cooperating with the liquid nitrogen supply component and the protection sleeve. Before the liquefied natural gas is filled, the liquid nitrogen supply component works to introduce liquefied natural gas into the protection sleeve, so that the liquid nitrogen is input between the inner wall of the protection sleeve and the outer wall of the inflation pipe.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the vaporizer can gasify liquid nitrogen into nitrogen, the nitrogen storage tank is used to store the vaporized nitrogen, and the nitrogen compressor can pressurize the nitrogen and send it back to the insulation cavity through the nitrogen return pipe. At this time, the nitrogen in the gaseous state can increase the pressure in the insulation cavity. Under the action of the high-pressure nitrogen in the insulation cavity, the liquid nitrogen can quickly flow into the liquid nitrogen recovery tank through the liquid nitrogen recovery pipe, thereby realizing the rapid recovery of liquid nitrogen.

[0019] Optionally, the installation box includes a mounting frame and a middle tube, the middle tube is vertically arranged, the mounting frame is fixedly connected to the middle tube, and the heat-insulating cavity is opened in the side wall of the middle tube; a top plate is arranged on the upper side of the middle tube, the top plate closes the middle tube, the inflation tube and the exhaust pipe are both connected to the top plate, and the inflation tube and the exhaust pipe both extend into the middle tube; a bottom plate is arranged on the lower side of the middle tube, and a lifting drive member for driving the bottom plate to move in a vertical direction is arranged between the middle tube and the bottom plate; the gas cylinder is vertically arranged on the upper side of the bottom plate, the gas cylinder is detachably connected to the bottom plate, the gas cylinder is plug-fitted with the middle tube, and the inflation tube and the exhaust pipe are both plug-fitted with the gas cylinder in the vertical direction.

Such a structural setting can automatically remove the gas cylinder from the installation box and automatically send the gas cylinder into the installation box when the gas cylinder needs to be replaced, reducing the possibility of workers directly contacting the middle tube, which can reduce the possibility of workers being frostbitten by liquid nitrogen in the insulation cavity.

[0021] Optionally, the outer side of the protective sleeve is covered with a heat preservation layer, and the outer side of the heat preservation layer is covered with a thermal insulation layer.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the insulation layer can effectively isolate the heat from the external environment, maintain the low temperature state in the protective sleeve, and reduce the gasification of liquefied natural gas.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The following is combined with Figure 1 -Attached Figure 7 , further details of this application are given.

[0039] Embodiment 1: A gas pretreatment liquefaction filling protection system, referring to Figure 1 , including a liquefied natural gas supply mechanism 1, a gas charging pipe 2, a gas storage bottle 3, an exhaust pipe 4 and a natural gas storage mechanism 5, wherein the gas charging pipe 2 is arranged between the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism 1 and the gas storage bottle 3, one end of the gas charging pipe 2 is connected to the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism 1, and the other end is connected to the gas storage bottle 3, and the gas charging pipe 2 and the gas storage bottle 3 are detachably connected. The exhaust pipe 4 is located between the natural gas storage mechanism 5 and the gas charging pipe 2, one end of the exhaust pipe 4 is connected to the natural gas storage mechanism 5, and the other end is connected to the gas charging pipe 2, and the exhaust pipe 4 and the gas storage bottle 3 are detachably connected.

[0040] In this embodiment, the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism 1 includes a liquefied natural gas storage tank and a cryogenic liquid pump, which can pump the liquefied natural gas in the liquefied natural gas storage tank into the gas charging pipe 2. The natural gas storage mechanism 5 includes a natural gas storage tank, which can store the natural gas discharged from the exhaust pipe 4.

[0041] When the gas cylinder 3 needs to be filled with liquefied natural gas, the filling pipe 2 and the exhaust pipe 4 are both connected to the gas cylinder 3, the filling pipe 2 is connected to the filling hole on the gas cylinder 3, and the exhaust pipe 4 is connected to the exhaust hole on the gas cylinder 3. At this time, the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism 1 works, and the liquefied natural gas is discharged into the gas cylinder 3 through the filling pipe 2 to achieve the filling of liquefied natural gas. During this liquefied natural gas filling process, part of the liquefied natural gas is converted into gaseous natural gas. The production of natural gas causes the pressure in the gas cylinder 3 to increase. At this time, the natural gas is discharged from the gas cylinder 3 through the exhaust pipe 4, which can reduce the pressure in the gas cylinder 3, thereby ensuring that a sufficient amount of liquefied natural gas can be loaded into the gas cylinder 3. The natural gas discharged through the exhaust pipe 4 will be stored in the natural gas storage mechanism 5 for subsequent processing.

[0042] Reference Figure 1 The liquefied natural gas filling protection system further includes an installation box 6, in which the gas cylinder 3 is arranged. The gas filling pipe 2 and the exhaust pipe 4 both extend into the installation box 6. The installation box 6 is provided for installing the gas cylinder 3.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The liquefied natural gas filling protection system also includes a liquid nitrogen protection mechanism 7, which includes a liquid nitrogen supply component 71, a nitrogen filling pipeline 72 and a protective sleeve 73. The protective sleeve 73 is sleeved on the outside of the gas filling pipe 2, one end of the protective sleeve 73 is connected to the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism 1, and the other end of the protective sleeve 73 is connected to the side wall of the installation box 6. The inner side wall of the protective sleeve 73 is spaced apart from the outer side wall of the gas filling pipe 2. A closed heat preservation space 731 is formed around the inner side wall of the protective sleeve 73, the outer side wall of the gas filling pipe 2, the side wall of the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism 1 and the side wall of the installation box 6. The nitrogen filling pipeline 72 is arranged between the liquid nitrogen supply component 71 and the protective sleeve 73. One end of the nitrogen filling pipeline 72 is connected to the liquid nitrogen supply component 71, and the other end is connected to the protective sleeve 73, which makes the nitrogen filling pipeline 72 connected to the heat preservation space 731.

[0044] In this embodiment, the liquid nitrogen supply assembly 71 includes a liquid nitrogen cryogenic storage tank and a cryogenic liquid pump. Under the action of the cryogenic liquid pump, the liquid nitrogen in the liquid nitrogen cryogenic storage tank is pumped into the nitrogen filling pipe 72, and then the nitrogen filling pipe 72 inputs the liquid nitrogen into the heat preservation space 731. On the one hand, the liquid nitrogen has a low temperature, which can provide low-temperature protection for the gas filling pipe 2 and reduce the gasification loss of the liquefied natural gas in the gas filling pipe 2; on the other hand, when the gas filling pipe 2 leaks, the protective sleeve 73 can prevent the liquefied natural gas from leaking, and at this time, the liquid nitrogen can be neutralized and protected.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The liquid nitrogen protection mechanism 7 further includes a liquid nitrogen return pipe 74, one end of which is connected to the protection sleeve 73, and the other end is connected to the installation box 6. The side walls of the installation box 6 are provided with insulation cavities 61, and the plurality of insulation cavities 61 are connected, and one end of the liquid nitrogen return pipe 74 is connected to the insulation space 731, and the other end is connected to the insulation cavity 61.

[0046] This allows the liquid nitrogen in the insulation space 731 to be transported into the insulation cavity 61 through the liquid nitrogen return pipe 74. After the liquid nitrogen is filled into the insulation cavity 61, the temperature in the installation box 6 is reduced, thereby reducing the temperature of the gas storage cylinder 3 and reducing the gasification loss of the liquefied natural gas.

[0047] Reference Figure 1The liquid nitrogen protection mechanism 7 also includes a liquid nitrogen recovery tank 75, a vaporizer 76, a nitrogen storage tank 77, a nitrogen compressor 78 and a plurality of intermediate pipes 79. The liquid nitrogen recovery tank 75, the vaporizer 76, the nitrogen storage tank 77 and the nitrogen compressor 78 are connected in sequence through the corresponding intermediate pipes 79. A liquid nitrogen recovery pipe 710 is provided between the liquid nitrogen recovery tank 75 and the installation box 6. One end of the liquid nitrogen recovery pipe 710 is connected to the liquid nitrogen recovery tank 75, and the other end is connected to the heat preservation cavity 61. A nitrogen return pipe 711 is provided between the nitrogen compressor 78 and the installation box 6. One end of the nitrogen return pipe 711 is connected to the nitrogen compressor 78, and the other end is connected to the heat preservation cavity 61.

[0048] Reference Figure 1 , the setting of the liquid nitrogen recovery tank 75, after the liquid nitrogen in the heat preservation cavity 61 is used for a period of time, more liquid nitrogen is gasified, the internal pressure of the heat preservation cavity 61 increases, and the cooling effect of the liquid nitrogen is reduced. At this time, the liquid nitrogen recovery pipe 710 is opened, and the liquid nitrogen and nitrogen gas are input into the liquid nitrogen recovery tank 75 for storage, so that the pressure in the heat preservation cavity 61 is reduced. On the one hand, the installation box 6 is protected; on the other hand, the recovery of liquid nitrogen is realized.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 When the internal pressure of the liquid nitrogen recovery pipe 710 is too high or too much liquid nitrogen is stored, the liquid nitrogen in the heat preservation cavity 61 can flow into the vaporizer 76, and the vaporizer 76 gasifies the liquid nitrogen into nitrogen gas, and the nitrogen gas is input into the nitrogen storage tank 77 for storage. The setting of the nitrogen storage tank 77 can gasify and recover the liquid nitrogen when the pressure in the liquid nitrogen recovery tank 75 is too high, thereby reducing the internal pressure of the liquid nitrogen recovery tank 75.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 When it is necessary to stop filling the liquefied natural gas, the liquefied natural gas in the heat preservation cavity 61 needs to be discharged in time. At this time, the nitrogen in the nitrogen storage tank 77 is input into the nitrogen compressor 78, and the nitrogen compressor 78 pressurizes the nitrogen and inputs it into the heat preservation cavity 61. At this time, the nitrogen in the heat preservation cavity 61 increases, which can pressurize the liquid nitrogen into the liquid nitrogen recovery tank 75, so as to realize the rapid emptying of the liquid nitrogen in the heat preservation cavity 61 in the installation box 6.

[0051] In this embodiment, the liquefied natural gas filling protection system also includes a control valve group and a safety mechanism. The control valve group includes a plurality of control valves. The plurality of pipeline control valves are respectively arranged on each pipeline of the liquefied natural gas filling protection system, so that the control valve group can control the opening or closing of each pipeline in the liquefied natural gas filling protection system. The safety mechanism includes a plurality of pressure gauges, a safety valve and a pressure relief device, which are used to monitor the internal pressure of each pipeline and mechanism in the liquefied natural gas filling protection system. The safety valve and the pressure relief valve are used to realize the pressure relief protection of each pipeline and mechanism in the liquefied natural gas filling protection system. Therefore, the coordination of the control valve group and the safety mechanism enables the liquefied natural gas filling protection system to work normally.

[0052] In this embodiment, the outer side of the protective sleeve 73 and the outer side of the installation box 6 are covered with a heat preservation layer, and the outer side of the heat preservation layer is also covered with a heat insulation layer. The provision of the heat preservation layer can prevent the liquid nitrogen from absorbing heat and gasifying too quickly, thereby extending the use time of the liquid nitrogen. The provision of the heat insulation layer can prevent the worker from being frostbitten when the worker accidentally touches the outer side of the low-temperature protective sleeve 73 or the outer side of the installation box 6.

Start the liquefied natural gas supply mechanism 1, and the liquefied natural gas is transported into the gas cylinder 3 through the gas charging pipe 2. When the pressure in the gas cylinder 3 is too high, the exhaust pipe 4 automatically opens to discharge the gasified liquefied natural gas into the natural gas storage mechanism 5. This enables the liquefied natural gas to be filled into the gas cylinder 3.
