Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of gas cylinder protection, and in particular to a gas cylinder heat insulation and buffer pad and a control system and method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Gas cylinders, as pressure vessels, are commonly found in self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatuses. As basic components of personal protective equipment, they often appear in various accident scenarios, protecting personnel safety by continuously providing air or oxygen. However, gas cylinders not only have certain safety risks themselves, but in typical accident scenarios such as fires, the objective existence of high environmental temperatures and impacts with foreign objects further exacerbate the risk level of gas cylinders. The State Council departmental regulations "Regulations on Safety Supervision of Special Equipment (Revised in 2009)" explicitly stipulate that gas cylinders are included in the national special equipment safety supervision regulations system for strict management; the administrative document "TSG23-2021 Gas Cylinder Safety Technical Regulations" and the national standard "GB / T 34525-2017 Gas Cylinder Handling, Loading and Unloading, Storage and Use Safety Regulations" both clearly require that gas cylinders should not be close to heat sources during use, prevent accidental heating, and should not be knocked or collided. Therefore, heat insulation and impact protection are necessary technologies to ensure the safety of gas cylinders.

[0003] In the field of personal protective equipment, due to the existence of multiple intertwined risk factors in usage scenarios, while solving personal protection needs, technical features that need to be strengthened include low carrying load, small occupied volume, low power demand, and high degree of reuse, so as to improve the availability of equipment and ensure the user's behavioral flexibility.

[0004] Currently, a variety of gas cylinder protection technical solutions have been proposed, such as:

[0005] (1) Setting up an insulating cavity on the gas cylinder, such as CN202320041641.6 and CN202222378059.7. This solution modifies the inherent structure of the gas cylinder and must be operated by the manufacturer. It will become ineffective if damaged.

[0006] (2) Applying thermal insulation coatings on gas cylinders, such as CN202410341828.7, CN202010077362.6, and CN201911067986.3; this solution also needs to be applied during the production of gas cylinders and must be operated by the manufacturer. It will become ineffective after being damaged, and the thermal insulation effect depends on the quality of the coating, which has a low cost-performance ratio.

[0007] (3) Protective components such as airbags are installed outside the gas cylinder to reduce the risk of damage during collision. For example, CN202411134705.2 and similar designs use electric air pumps for inflating the gas cylinder for collision protection, which significantly increases the technical complexity and overall quality. In this structure, the airbag is sealed. Due to the expansion of gas in a high temperature environment, it is necessary to consider the inflation and deflation of the airbag, which is inconvenient to use. Summary of the invention

[0040] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the gas cylinder insulation and buffer pad proposed in the present application is used to wrap around the outer periphery of the gas cylinder to provide insulation and protection functions for the gas cylinder.

[0042] The gas cylinder heat insulation and cushion includes: an air cushion 1, a control valve 2, an air inlet pipe 3, an air outlet pipe 4 and a three-way valve 5. The air cushion 1 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the gas cylinder 6 to block the heat exchange between the environment and the gas in the cylinder.

[0043] A one-way air path is provided in the air cushion 1; the inlet of the control valve 2 is connected to the air inlet pipe 3, the first outlet a1 thereof is connected to the air inlet end of the air cushion 1, and the second outlet a2 thereof is connected to the first inlet of the three-way valve 5 through the air outlet pipe 4; the outlet of the three-way valve 5 is used to connect and communicate with the air inlet of the breathing mask 8. The air outlet end of the air cushion 1 is connected to the second inlet of the three-way valve 5. The opening ratio of the first outlet and the second outlet of the control valve 2 is adjustable.

[0044] The gas cylinder outlet valve is connected to the inlet of the control valve 2 through the air inlet pipe 3.

[0045] In this way, the gas in the bottle can flow to the breathing mask 8 through the air cushion 1, and can also flow to the breathing mask 8 through the air outlet pipe 4.

[0046] When the gas in the bottle can flow to the breathing mask 8 through the air cushion 1, the air cushion is in an inflated state, which can effectively isolate the heat exchange between the environment and the gas bottle, reduce the heat absorption and temperature rise of the gas in the bottle. The flow of gas in the air cushion 1 can take away the heat around the gas bottle, further improving the insulation effect.

[0047] The setting of the air outlet pipe 4 can cooperate with the air cushion 1 to ensure the air supply pressure of the breathing mask 8 and avoid increasing the inhalation resistance in the air path process of the air cushion 1. In this embodiment, a pressure reducing valve 9 is provided on the air inlet pipe 3 to ensure the stability of the air supply pressure.

[0048] In specific implementation, a plurality of mutually parallel one-way air paths are provided inside the air cushion 1, the air inlet end of the air cushion 1 is connected to the inlet of each air path, and the air outlet end of the air cushion 1 is connected to the outlet of each air path. In this way, the cross-sectional area of ​​the flow channel in the air cushion 1 can be increased, and the gas flow resistance in the air cushion 1 can be further reduced, thereby reducing the inhalation resistance of the breathing mask 8.

[0049] The air cushion 1 is formed by bending the air pipe in a serpentine shape and bonding it flat. The air pipe is bent at 180 degrees to ensure smooth gas flow at the bend. The air pipe can have a rough surface to increase friction. Specifically, the air cushion 1 is formed by bending multiple parallel air pipes to form an air cushion 1 with multiple parallel unidirectional air paths. The outer periphery of the air pipe is coated with a heat insulation layer to further improve the heat insulation effect of the air cushion 1.

[0050] Specifically, the air pipe can be made of a flexible material with heat-resistant and heat-insulating properties, and the air pipe can be woven into a mesh-like, multi-layer structure to wrap around the gas cylinder. Under the support of the pressure difference between the internal and external gas environments, the air pipe isolates the heat transfer and impact from the outside to the inside, thereby providing further heat insulation and impact protection for the gas cylinder 6.

[0051] In this embodiment, the air cushion 1 can be made into a flat-laying structure, such as Figure 1 As shown, when in use, the air cushion 1 is wrapped around the outer circumference of the gas cylinder 6, the air inlet of the air cushion 1 is located in the inner circle, and the air outlet of the air cushion 1 is located in the outer circle. The air cushion 1 can also be made into a sheath structure, which is more convenient to use, but cannot match gas cylinders of different diameters.

[0052] In this embodiment, an exhalation tube 7 may be provided to connect to the exhalation valve on the breathing mask 8. The exhalation tube 7 may be used to bind the air cushion 1 to ensure the relative position stability of the air cushion 1 and the gas cylinder 6.

[0053] The control valve 2 is a solenoid valve to control the opening of the second outlet a2 and the first outlet a1.

[0054] In this embodiment, the second outlet a2 of the connecting three-way valve 5 is in an open state all the time, and the opening degree of the control valve 2 communicating with the first outlet a1 of the air cushion 1 is adjusted according to the air pressure P inside the cylinder and the ambient temperature T. During the gas transmission process of the gas cylinder, by monitoring the ambient temperature outside the gas cylinder and increasing the gas output of the air cushion 1 as the temperature rises, more heat can be taken away, providing more efficient thermal protection for the gas cylinder; at the same time, the gas transmission volume can be further increased to reduce the inhalation resistance of the gas user and improve comfort.

[0055] The lower limit of pressure represents the acceptable minimum value, which is defaulted to 2 MPa; it can be customized as required. The temperature setting corresponds to the ambient temperature. The lower limit and upper limit of temperature respectively represent the acceptable maximum temperature range. The lower limit of temperature can be set to 31, and the upper limit of temperature can be set to 59; both parameters can be customized as required.

[0056] Refer to Figure 2 , in this embodiment, the control method of the gas cylinder is as follows:

[0057] The air pressure P inside the cylinder and the ambient temperature T are monitored in real time, and the opening degree of the first outlet a1 is controlled according to the comparison result between the air pressure P inside the cylinder and the set lower limit of pressure Pmin, and the comparison results between the ambient temperature T and the set lower limit of temperature Tmin and upper limit of temperature Tmax.

[0058] When P < Pmin, or T < Tmin; then for the first outlet a1, the gas inside the gas cylinder only passes through the second outlet a2 and the air outlet pipe 4 and is sent to the breathing mask 8 to reduce the length of the air supply path and the inhalation resistance;

[0059] When P ≥ Pmin and T > Tmax, the first outlet a1 of the control valve 2 is fully opened to increase the gas flow rate inside the air cushion 1 and improve the heat insulation effect;

[0060] When P ≥ Pmin and Tmin ≤ T ≤ Tmax, calculate the opening area S of the first outlet a1, and adjust the control valve 2 to execute the opening area S:

[0061] S = π[d'a1 / 2] 2

[0062] Among them, d'a1 represents the opening diameter.

[0063] In a fire fighting scenario, since there is a temperature gradient on both sides of the air cushion 1, that is, between the external environment and the gas cylinder, and the gradient direction is from the outside to the inside, heat transfer occurs; the greater the temperature gradient, the faster the heat transfer speed. There are three forms of heat transfer: heat conduction, heat radiation, and heat convection. Among them, there are heat reflection coatings both inside and outside the air cushion 1, so the proportion of heat radiation can be ignored; in addition, there is no heat convection inside the air cushion in the gradient direction; therefore, heat conduction is the main heat transfer method.

[0064] In order to eliminate heat transfer, the low-temperature airflow output from the first outlet a1 from the inside of the gas cylinder corresponds to the temperature gradient inside and outside the air cushion, passes through the air cushion at a speed not lower than a certain speed and takes away heat, thereby maintaining the stability of the temperature of the gas cylinder; when the temperature gradient is greater, the first opening a1 of the control valve needs to be opened wider, the more gas flows through the air cushion, the faster the flow rate, and the more heat the gas takes away.

[0065] After the air cushion wraps the gas cylinder with a single layer and is placed in a fire environment, the heat flux per unit time conducted from the environment to the gas cylinder through the air cushion is Q 导 ,but

[0066]

[0067] Among them, T 环 is the ambient temperature; T 瓶 is the gas cylinder temperature, d 瓶 is the cylinder diameter, h 瓶 is the height of the gas cylinder; 管 is the thermal conductivity of the air cushion; m 管 is the number of air paths in the air cushion; n 管 is the thickness of the air path wall in the air cushion, d 管 is the diameter of the air tube in the air cushion, λ 管 is the thermal conductivity.

[0068] According to GB / T 24161-2009 Periodic Inspection and Evaluation of Composite Gas Cylinders for Respirators, the upper limit of the use temperature of the gas cylinder is 60°C. According to the upper limit of the storage temperature of the air respirator is 30°C, the target temperature difference of heat dissipation is fixed at 30 degrees; in the positive pressure respirator, the output gas pressure of the pressure reducer is about 0.5MPa. Therefore, when the gas flows through the air cushion, the heat flow per unit time is Q 散 ,but

[0069] Q 散 =30×0.5×C 气 ×ρ 气 ×V 换

[0070] Among them, C 气 is the heat capacity of the bottled gas, ρ 气 V is the density of bottled gas under standard conditions; 换 is the air exchange volume of air cushion 1 per unit time;

[0071] Let Q 散 =Q 导 , calculate V 换 The values ​​are as follows,

[0072]

[0073] Depending on the valve control, set:

[0074]

[0075] Among them, d a3 is the calculated value of the opening diameter of the first opening, k is the set adjustment coefficient, π is the pi, and Int represents an integer; da2 is the diameter of the second outlet a2 of the control valve 2, V a2 is the gas output of the second outlet a2 per unit time.

[0076] After moving the items,

[0077]

[0078] To avoid frequent valve adjustments, the values ​​are rounded off as follows:

[0079]

[0080] In this embodiment, the default shape of the gas cylinder is a standard cylinder; the default number of layers of the air cushion wrapping the gas cylinder is 1.

[0081] The present application also proposes a gas cylinder control system, including a gas cylinder 6, a gas cylinder heat insulation and cushion, a pressure sensor and a processor; the gas cushion 1 is coated on the outer periphery of the gas cylinder 6, and the gas cylinder outlet valve is connected to the inlet of the control valve 2 through the air inlet pipe 3; the pressure sensor is used to detect the gas pressure in the gas cylinder, and the gas pressure in the bottle is the internal gas pressure of the gas cylinder. The gas cylinder is also provided with a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the gas cylinder.

[0082] The processor is respectively connected to the pressure sensor, the temperature sensor and the control valve 2 signals, and is also used to receive ambient temperature information; the processor is used to calculate the opening area S of the first outlet a1 of the control valve 2, and send the opening area S to the control valve, so that the control valve adjusts the opening area of ​​the first opening a1 in real time according to the working environment.

[0083] Of course, for those skilled in the art, the present application is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, but also includes the same or similar structures that can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present application. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present application is defined by the attached claims rather than the above description, so it is intended to include all changes that fall within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims.
