[0045] Embodiment 1

[0046] As Figure 1 shown, the present application provides a ship hydrogen filling arm suitable for large water level difference, which comprises a hydrogen filling device and a filling arm framework. Specifically:

[0047] The filling arm framework comprises a counterweight assembly 2, a balance assembly 3, an inner arm assembly 4 and an outer arm assembly 5. The four assemblies are connected by rotating assemblies two by two to form a movable four-bar linkage structure, and the center of gravity of the four-bar linkage structure is always located on the inner arm assembly 4.

[0048] A traction point is arranged on the tail end of the counterweight assembly 2 and the outer arm assembly 5, and the traction point of the counterweight assembly 2 is preferably arranged near the connection between the counterweight assembly 2 and the inner arm assembly 4.

[0049] In some embodiments, the filling arm framework further comprises a column 1 and a rotating shaft box 7, and the bottom of the column 1 is fixedly arranged on the shore base.

[0050] Preferably, the inner arm assembly 4 and the outer arm assembly 5 are both planar truss structures, and the design of the truss structure overcomes the problem of excessive force arm ratio balancing, i.e. the problem of the size ratio of the force arms on both sides of the inner arm assembly 4 with the column 1 as the center.

[0051] As Figures 2 to 5 shown, the rotating shaft box 7 is rotatably connected to the top end of the column 1 through a first rotary support mechanism 73, so that the four-bar linkage structure can rotate around the axis of the column 1, thereby increasing the filling range of the ship hydrogen filling arm.

[0052] The rotating shaft box 7 is rotatably connected to the center of gravity position on the inner arm assembly 4 through a second rotary support mechanism 75.

[0053] Specifically, in combination with Figure 11As shown, the center of gravity of the inner arm assembly 4 is hinged to the pivot box 7 at the hinge point O, one end of the counterweight assembly 2 is hinged to the leading end of the inner arm assembly 4 at the hinge point B, one end of the counterweight assembly 2 is hinged to the leading end of the balancing assembly 3 at the hinge point A, the trailing end of the balancing assembly 3 is hinged to the leading end of the outer arm assembly 5, the trailing end of the inner arm assembly 4 is hinged to the outer arm assembly 5 at the hinge point C, and when the four-bar linkage structure moves: the inner arm assembly 4 rotates around the hinge point O, thereby realizing large-amplitude action, the counterweight assembly 2 rotates around the hinge point B, pulls the balancing assembly 3, thereby driving the outer arm assembly 5 to rotate around the hinge point C to realize small-amplitude action.

[0054] The hydrogen filling device comprises a hydrogen filling hose 6, which is arranged along the column 1, the inner arm assembly 4 and the outer arm assembly 5 and is fixed to the inner arm assembly 4 and the outer arm assembly 5 by a pipe clamp, and a U-shaped bend is arranged at the movable joint of the inner arm assembly 4 and the outer arm assembly 5 as compensation.

[0055] Compared with directly using a hydrogen filling hose with a length of tens of meters to transport hydrogen, the filling arm framework provided by the present application provides support for the hydrogen filling hose 6 and connection guarantee for long-distance high-pressure hydrogen filling, thereby avoiding frequent bending and stretching of the hydrogen filling hose 6 due to large filling span, and avoiding violent collision and friction between the hydrogen filling hose 6 and obstacles such as rock walls, to prevent damage and rupture of the hydrogen filling hose 6.

[0056] The four-bar linkage structure rotates around the axis of the column 1 to the corresponding angle of the filling ship, pulls the traction point on the outer arm assembly 5, the inner arm assembly 4 rotates around the hinge point O towards the direction close to the filling ship, and drives the counterweight assembly 2 and the balancing assembly 3 to rotate to maintain the balance of the four-bar linkage structure, the four-bar linkage structure gradually unfolds, the output end of the hydrogen filling hose 6 moves to the area where the filling ship is located along with the outer arm assembly 5, and the inner arm assembly 4 continues to rotate around the hinge point O to the appropriate angle, so that the output end of the hydrogen filling hose 6 is lowered to the hydrogen filling port close to the ship to fill hydrogen into the ship. After filling is completed, the traction point on the counterweight assembly 2 is pulled, the inner arm assembly 4 rotates around the hinge point O away from the filling ship, the trailing end of the outer arm assembly 5 is driven away from the filling ship, and the four-bar linkage structure gradually folds.

[0057] In some embodiments, the hydrogen filling device further comprises a hydrogen filling gun 8, the input end of the hydrogen filling gun 8 is connected to the output end of the hydrogen filling hose 6, when the output end of the hydrogen filling hose 6 is lowered to the hydrogen filling port of the ship, the operator connects the hydrogen filling gun 8 to the hydrogen filling port of the ship, hydrogen is transported from the hydrogen filling machine on the shore base to the hydrogen filling gun 8 through the hydrogen filling hose 6, and then the hydrogen filling gun 8 fills hydrogen into the ship.

[0058] In some embodiments, the hydrogen filling device further comprises a pull-off valve 9 arranged on the hydrogen filling hose 6, preferably, the pull-off valve 9 is fixed at the tail end of the outer arm assembly 5, when an accident occurs, for example, after the ship is filled with hydrogen, the hydrogen filling gun 8 is not pulled out, and the ship is driven away, at this time, the pull-off valve 9 can be pulled off, the pull-off valve 9 instantaneously cuts off the hydrogen filling hose 6 connected at both ends, preventing hydrogen leakage, and fixing the pull-off valve 9 at the tail end of the outer arm assembly 5 can also ensure that the pull-off valve 9 will not directly rebound and collide with the ship under the action of the pulling force of the hydrogen filling hose 6, avoiding damage to the ship body.

[0059] Embodiment 2

[0060] Based on the embodiment 1, the embodiment provides a mounting structure of the hydrogen filling gun: the ship hydrogen filling arm is further provided with a telescopic pipe assembly 10, one end of the telescopic pipe assembly 10 is connected with the tail end of the outer arm assembly 5, the other end of the telescopic pipe assembly 10 is provided with a hydrogen filling gun mounting seat 106 for accommodating the hydrogen filling gun 8, and during filling, the telescopic pipe assembly 10 is pulled out to remove the hydrogen filling gun 8.

[0061] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 6 the telescopic pipe assembly 10 comprises an inner cylinder 101, an outer cylinder 103 and a tension spring 105 arranged in the inner cylinder 101, the inner cylinder 101 and the outer cylinder 103 are each provided with an opening and a plug, the inner cylinder plug 102 is connected with the tail end of the outer arm assembly 5 through a pin, the opening of the inner cylinder 101 is sleeved in the outer cylinder 103 through the opening of the outer cylinder 103, and the two ends of the tension spring 105 are respectively connected with the inner cylinder plug 102 and the outer cylinder plug 104.

[0062] The outer cylinder 103 is provided with a hydrogen filling gun mounting seat 106, and the outer cylinder plug 104 is provided with a pull rope.

[0063] When hydrogen is not needed to be filled, the telescopic pipe assembly 10 is in a vertical state, the tension spring 105 is in a contracted state, and the hydrogen filling gun 8 is mounted on the hydrogen filling gun mounting seat 106, avoiding interference with site guardrails, ship parts and the like caused by the overlong end of the filling arm skeleton.

[0064] When the outer arm assembly 5 moves to the area close to the filling ship, the operator pulls the pull rope connected to the outer cylinder plug 104, the outer cylinder 103 moves downward, facilitating the removal of the hydrogen filling gun 8 for filling the ship, and after the pull rope is released, the outer cylinder 103 automatically retracts under the action of the tension spring 105, and the setting of the telescopic pipe assembly 10 further increases the envelope range of the ship hydrogen filling arm.

[0065] Embodiment 3

[0066] Based on the above embodiments, the embodiment provides a specific structure of the rotating shaft box 7: combined withFigures 2 to 5 As shown, the rotating shaft box 7 comprises a box frame 72, a handrail 71 arranged on the box frame 72, and a locking block 74 arranged at the bottom of the box frame 72. When the four-bar linkage structure rotates around the axis of the stand column 1, the locking block 74 is used to lock any position of the four-bar linkage structure within the rotation range of the four-bar linkage.

[0067] In order to avoid the imbalance of the entire refueling arm skeleton structure caused by the removal of the hydrogen filling gun 8 during refueling, a damping mechanism is arranged at the rotating shaft box assembly 3 to balance the weight loss when the hydrogen filling gun is removed.

[0068] The rotating shaft box 7 is also provided with a damping assembly, which comprises a slow descent disc 77 and a brake 78. The brake 78 clamps the outer edge of the slow descent disc 77 to dampen the rotation of the rotating structure.

[0069] Preferably, the brake 78 is at least two, and the two brakes 78 are oppositely arranged on both sides of the outer edge of the slow descent disc 77 and are fixed on the box frame 72 of the rotating shaft box 7.

[0070] The slow descent disc 77 is connected with the gravity center position on the inner arm assembly 4 through the support flange 76 to form a rotating structure. Preferably, the support flange 76 passes through the inner ring of the second rotary support structure 75 and is connected with the gravity center position on the inner arm assembly 4.

[0071] When the hydrogen filling gun 8 is removed from the hydrogen filling gun mounting seat 106, the tail end gravity of the outer arm assembly 5 is reduced, or at this time the brake 78 clamps the outer edge of the slow descent disc 77 to slow down the rotation of the rotating structure, thereby slowing down the descent speed of the outer arm assembly 5, so that the four-bar linkage structure is more balanced and stable.
