Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] As a pressure container, a gas cylinder is commonly used in a self-contained positive pressure respirator, is often used in various accident scenes as a basic component of individual protective equipment, and provides air or oxygen to protect personnel safety. However, the gas cylinder itself has certain safety risks, and in typical accident scenes such as fire, the objective high temperature environment and external impact further increase the risk level of the gas cylinder. According to the State Council department regulations “Special Equipment Safety Supervision Regulations (2009 Amendment)”, 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 Safety Regulations for Gas Cylinder Handling, Loading, Storage and Use” both clearly require that the gas cylinder should not be close to the heat source, prevent accidental heating, and should not knock or collide with the gas cylinder. Therefore, heat insulation and impact protection are necessary technologies to ensure the safety of the gas cylinder.

[0003] In the field of individual protective equipment, due to the existence of multiple risk elements in the use scene, while solving the personal protection demand, the technical features that need to be strengthened include low carrying load, small occupied volume, low power demand, and high reuse degree, so as to improve the usability of the equipment and ensure the behavior flexibility of the user.

[0004] At present, various gas cylinder protection technical solutions have been proposed, for example:

[0006] (2) A heat insulation coating is coated on the gas cylinder, such as CN202410341828.7, CN202010077362.6 and CN201911067986.3, etc. This scheme also needs to be coated during gas cylinder production, and must be operated by the production party, and is invalid after damage, and the heat insulation effect depends on the quality of the coating, and the cost performance is low;

[0007] (3) A gas bag or other protective component is arranged outside the gas cylinder to reduce the risk of collision and damage, such as CN202411134705.2, etc. and similar designs use an electric air pump for inflation collision protection, which significantly increases the technical complexity and overall quality; in this structure, the gas bag is closed, and due to the expansion of the gas in the high temperature environment, the inflation and deflation of the gas bag need to be considered, which is inconvenient to use.

[0030] The application has the following advantages:

[0031] (1) The gas cylinder heat insulation and cushion provided in the application sets two airflow channels to the breathing mask, one is the gas outlet pipe, which can realize short-path gas supply from the gas cylinder to the breathing mask, ensuring low resistance inhalation for the user; the other is through the air cushion to the breathing mask, which is convenient for supporting the air cushion through the outflow of the gas in the bottle, realizing the heat insulation and protection of the air cushion.

In high temperature environments, the air cushion flow channel is fully opened, fully taking into account the gas cylinder's gas expansion and cooling requirements. Under the self-driven air pressure, the airflow through the air cushion achieves sufficient heat dissipation and protection. Attached Figure Description

[0040] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the gas cylinder insulation and cushioning pad proposed in this application is used to cover the outer periphery of the gas cylinder, providing heat insulation and protection for the gas cylinder.

[0042] The gas cylinder insulation and cushioning pad includes: gas cushion 1, control valve 2, inlet pipe 3, outlet pipe 4, and three-way valve 5. Gas cushion 1 covers the outer periphery of the gas cylinder 6 to prevent heat exchange between the environment and the gas inside the cylinder.

[0043] The air cushion 1 has a one-way air passage; the inlet of the control valve 2 is connected to the air inlet pipe 3, its first outlet a1 is connected to the air inlet end of the air cushion 1, and its second outlet a2 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 to 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 control valve 2 via inlet pipe 3.

[0045] In this way, the gas inside the bottle can flow to the breathing mask 8 through the air cushion 1, or through the air outlet tube 4.

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

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

[0048] In specific implementation, the air cushion 1 is internally provided with a plurality of parallel one-way gas paths, the gas inlet end of the air cushion 1 is communicated with the inlets of the gas paths, and the gas outlet end of the air cushion 1 is communicated with the outlets of the gas paths. 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 is further reduced, thereby reducing the inhalation resistance of the breathing mask 8.

[0049] The air cushion 1 is formed by bending and laying the gas pipes in a serpentine shape and bonding them. The gas pipes are bent by 180 degrees at the bending positions to ensure smooth gas flow. The gas pipes can have rough surfaces to increase the friction. Specifically, the air cushion 1 is formed by bending a plurality of parallel gas pipes to form the air cushion 1 with a plurality of parallel one-way gas paths. The outer periphery of the gas pipes is coated with a heat insulation layer to further improve the heat insulation effect of the air cushion 1.

[0050] Specifically, the gas pipes can be made of flexible materials with heat-resistant and heat-insulating properties, and the gas pipes are wrapped around the gas cylinder in a mesh and multi-layer structure by weaving. The gas pipes are supported by the pressure difference between the inner and outer gas environments, and isolate 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 the embodiment, the air cushion 1 can be made in a flat and expanded structure, as shown in Figure 1 When in use, the air cushion 1 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the gas cylinder 6, the gas inlet of the air cushion 1 is located at the inner ring, and the gas outlet of the air cushion 1 is located at the outer ring. The air cushion 1 can also be made in a sheath structure, which is more convenient to use, but cannot match gas cylinders of different diameters.

[0052] In the embodiment, the exhalation pipe 7 can be provided to communicate with the exhalation valve on the breathing mask 8, and the exhalation pipe 7 can 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 an electromagnetic valve to control the opening degree of the second outlet a2 and the first outlet a1.

[0054] In this embodiment, the second outlet a2 of the communication tee valve 5 is in the open state, and the opening degree of the first outlet a1 of the control valve 2 is adjusted according to the bottle gas pressure P and the ambient temperature T. During the gas cylinder gas supply process, by monitoring the ambient temperature outside the gas cylinder, and as the temperature rises, the gas output of the air cushion 1 is increased, which can take away more heat and provide more efficient thermal protection for the gas cylinder; at the same time, the gas supply amount can be further increased, the inhalation resistance of the gas user can be reduced, and the comfort can be improved.

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

[0056] Referring to Figure 2 In this embodiment, the control method of the gas cylinder is:

[0057] The bottle gas pressure P 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 results of the bottle gas pressure P and the set lower limit of the pressure Pmin, and the comparison results of the ambient temperature T and the set lower limit of the temperature Tmin and the upper limit of the temperature Tmax.

[0058] When P

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

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

[0061] S=π[d'a1 / 2] 2

[0062] Wherein, d'a1 represents the open diameter.

[0063] In the fire scene, there is a temperature gradient between the external environment and the gas cylinder on both sides of the air cushion 1, and the gradient direction is from the outside to the inside, so 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, the air cushion 1 has a heat reflecting coating inside and outside, so the proportion of heat radiation can be ignored; in addition, there is no heat convection in the gradient direction inside the air cushion; therefore, heat conduction is the main heat transfer mode.

[0064] To eliminate heat transfer, the low-temperature gas flow from the inside of the gas cylinder output by the first outlet a1 corresponds to the temperature gradient inside and outside the air cushion, and passes through the air cushion at a speed not less than a certain speed and carries away heat, thereby maintaining the stability of the temperature of the gas cylinder; the greater the temperature gradient, the greater the opening of the first opening a1 of the control valve, the more gas flows through the air cushion, the faster the flow rate, and the more heat carried away by the gas.

[0065] After the air cushion wraps the gas cylinder in a single layer, the heat flow per unit time conducted by the environment to the gas cylinder in the fire-fighting environment is Q 导 ,

[0066]

[0067] Where T 环 is the ambient temperature; T 瓶 is the temperature of the gas cylinder, d 瓶 is the diameter of the gas cylinder, h 瓶 is the height of the gas cylinder; λ 管 is the thermal conductivity of the air cushion; m 管 is the number of gas paths in the air cushion; n 管 is the thickness of the gas path wall in the air cushion, d 管 is the diameter of the gas tube in the air cushion, and 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 gas cylinder temperature is 60°C, and according to the upper limit of the air respirator storage temperature, the target temperature difference for heat dissipation is fixed at 30 degrees; in a positive pressure respirator, the output gas pressure of the pressure reducer is about 0.5 MPa. Therefore, during the process of the gas flowing through the air cushion, the heat flow per unit time carried away is Q 散 ,

[0069] Q 散 = 30 × 0.5 × C 气 × ρ 气 × V 换

[0070] Where C 气 is the heat capacity of the bottled gas, ρ 气 is the density of the bottled gas under standard conditions, and V 换 is the air exchange rate of the air cushion 1 per unit time.

[0071] Let Q 散 = Q 导 , and the value of V 换 is calculated as follows,

[0072]

[0073] According to the valve regulation, set:

[0074]

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

[0076] After moving the term, it is as follows,

[0077]

[0078] In order to avoid frequent adjustment of the valve, the value is rounded, as follows:

[0079]

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

[0081] The application also provides a gas cylinder control system, which comprises a gas cylinder 6, a gas cylinder heat insulation and buffer pad, a pressure sensor, and a processor; the air cushion 1 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the gas cylinder 6, and the gas outlet valve of the gas cylinder is connected to the inlet of the control valve 2 through the gas inlet pipe 3; the pressure sensor is used for detecting the gas pressure in the gas cylinder, that is, the gas pressure in the gas cylinder. The temperature sensor is also arranged on the gas cylinder and used for detecting the temperature of the gas cylinder.

[0082] The processor is signal-connected with the pressure sensor, the temperature sensor, and the control valve 2, and the processor is also used for receiving environmental temperature information; the processor is used for calculating the opening area S of the first outlet a1 of the control valve 2 and sending 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.
