Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of filling stations, and in particular to an automatic reflux constant pressure system for a filling station. Background Art
[0002] The present invention relates to the technical field of filling stations, and in particular to an automatic reflux constant pressure system for achieving a constant filling pressure, avoiding pressure build-up in a hydrocarbon pump, extending the service life of equipment, and solving the problem of gas blockage in pipelines during the filling process of media such as propane and liquefied gas.
[0003] In existing filling stations, there are often many problems in the filling process of propane, liquefied gas and other media. For example, hydrocarbon pumps are prone to pressure build-up due to excessive pressure during the filling process, resulting in equipment damage and increased maintenance costs; at the same time, pipeline air blockage also seriously affects the filling speed and efficiency. Therefore, the present invention proposes an automatic reflux constant pressure system for a filling station to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide an automatic reflux constant pressure system for a filling station to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.
[0005] The automatic reflux constant pressure system for a filling station of the present invention comprises a filling pipeline, a hydrocarbon pump, a pressure sensor, a controller, a reflux pipeline, a reflux valve and other components. Among them, the filling pipeline is used to transport the medium from the storage tank to the filling equipment; the hydrocarbon pump is used to provide the pressure required for filling; the pressure sensor is used to monitor the pressure value in the filling pipeline in real time; the controller is used to receive the signal of the pressure sensor and calculate the required reflux valve opening according to a preset algorithm; the reflux pipeline is connected between the filling pipeline and the storage tank, and is used to reflux the excess medium to the storage tank; the reflux valve is used to adjust the reflux flow according to the instructions of the controller.
[0006] When the pressure value in the filling pipeline exceeds the preset value, the pressure sensor sends a signal to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller calculates the required opening of the return valve through the preset algorithm and sends a command to the return valve to make corresponding adjustments. In this way, the excess medium will flow back to the storage tank through the return pipeline, thereby reducing the pressure value in the filling pipeline and achieving the purpose of constant filling pressure.
[0007] In addition, the present invention can also set a fault alarm module and an emergency shutdown module in the controller, so that an alarm signal can be issued in time and the machine can be shut down for protection when a fault occurs.

By real-time monitoring of the pressure value in the filling pipeline and adjusting the opening of the reflux valve in real time according to the value, the purpose of constant filling pressure is achieved, the problem of hydrocarbon pump pressure build-up is effectively avoided, and the service life of the hydrocarbon pump and pipeline is extended.
[0010] 2. Since the system can adjust the pressure value in the filling pipeline in real time, it can completely solve the problem of pipeline air blockage, speed up the filling speed and improve the filling efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0011] Figure 1 It is the front view of the present invention.
[0012] In the figure: 1. filling pipeline; 2. hydrocarbon pump; 3. pressure sensor; 4. controller; 5. reflux pipeline; 6. reflux valve. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0013] The following is combined with Figure 1 This application is described in further detail.
[0014] This embodiment provides a specific implementation of an automatic reflux constant pressure system for a filling station. In this embodiment, the filling pipeline 1, hydrocarbon pump 2, pressure sensor 3, controller 4, reflux pipeline 5 and reflux valve 6 are connected and configured according to the above technical solution.
[0015] Specifically, one end of the filling pipeline 1 is connected to the storage tank, and the other end is connected to the filling equipment, which is used to transport the medium from the storage tank to the filling equipment. The hydrocarbon pump 2 is arranged on the filling pipeline 1 to provide the pressure required for filling. The pressure sensor 3 is arranged on the filling pipeline 1 to monitor the pressure value in the filling pipeline 1 in real time and send the signal to the controller 4.
[0016] After receiving the signal from the pressure sensor 3, the controller 4 calculates the required opening of the reflux valve 6 through a preset algorithm, and sends an instruction to the reflux valve 6 to adjust it accordingly. The reflux pipe 5 is connected between the filling pipe 1 and the storage tank to return the excess medium to the storage tank. The reflux valve 6 is installed on the reflux pipe 5 to adjust the reflux flow according to the instruction of the controller 4.
[0017] In addition, the present embodiment also provides a fault alarm module and an emergency stop module in the controller 4. When the pressure value in the filling pipeline 1 exceeds the preset safety range, the fault alarm module will send out an alarm signal to remind the operator to handle it in time. When receiving the emergency stop command, the emergency stop module will immediately stop the operation of the hydrocarbon pump 2 to protect the safety of equipment and personnel.
[0018] The working principle of the automatic reflux constant pressure system for a filling station of the present invention is as follows:
[0019] When the pressure value in the filling pipeline 1 exceeds the preset value, the pressure sensor 3 sends a signal to the controller 4. After receiving the signal, the controller 4 calculates the required opening of the reflux valve 6 through a preset algorithm and sends an instruction to the reflux valve 6. The reflux valve 6 adjusts the reflux flow according to the instruction of the controller 4, so that the excess medium flows back to the storage tank through the reflux pipeline 5. In this way, the pressure value in the filling pipeline 1 will gradually decrease until it reaches a preset constant value. At the same time, the controller 4 can also monitor the pressure value in the filling pipeline 1 in real time, and make corresponding adjustments as needed to keep the filling pressure constant.

The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional means such as mature bolts, rivets, welding, etc. in the prior art. Machinery, parts and equipment all adopt conventional models in the prior art, and the circuit connection adopts the conventional connection method in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.
