[0015] The present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. In order to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background technology, the present invention uses inert gases such as nitrogen to inflate the unit at two pressures to form a slight positive pressure and reduce gas leakage. The low-pressure part of the inflation is vented and discharged into the manifold, and discharged into the sewage tank through a liquid seal; the high-pressure part of the sewage is directly discharged into the sewage tank.

[0020] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can implement it according to the description.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a novel compressor venting and sewage discharge system, including an inert gas input end, which is respectively connected to a seal and a distance piece at at least one cylinder end through two pipelines, and the two pipelines connected to the inert gas input end are correspondingly provided with a pressure regulating valve for adjusting the pressure of the pipeline, and the pressures on the two pipelines are not equal; it also includes a sewage discharge tank, and the seals of at least one cylinder end are connected to the sewage discharge tank through the sewage discharge pipeline, and are discharged into the sewage discharge tank through the upper part, the gas is directly discharged, and the liquid flows into the sewage discharge tank; the distance piece at at least one cylinder end is connected to the sewage discharge pipeline through the venting pipeline and sinks to the lower part of the sewage discharge tank, and through the liquid seal, the liquid remains in the sewage discharge tank, and the gas enters the upper part of the sewage discharge tank.
[0023] The two pipelines connected to the inert gas input end are both provided with flow sensors, and a pressure sensor is provided in front of the pressure regulating valve, and the pressure regulated by the pressure regulating valve is fed back through the pressure sensor. The pressure on the two pipelines connected to the inert gas input end is reduced by pressure reduction, and the pressure on each sealing member filled into each cylinder end is greater than the pressure on each spacing member filled into each cylinder end.
[0024] Temperature sensors are installed on the sewage pipelines corresponding to the multiple cylinder ends. Two liquid level switches are installed on the sewage tank to monitor the high and low levels of the liquid respectively; a pressure sensor is installed on the sewage tank to monitor the pressure of the sewage tank. A sewage pump is also installed at the bottom of the sewage tank.
[0025] The sewage tank is connected to the low-pressure vent through a discharge pipeline, and a safety valve is also arranged in parallel on the discharge pipeline. An ejector is also arranged in parallel on the discharge pipeline, which is connected to the external high-pressure ejector gas through the ejector pipeline. A high-pressure ejector gas regulating valve is arranged on the ejector pipeline, which is interlocked with the pressure sensor arranged on the sewage tank to achieve synchronous adjustment of the opening and closing size.
[0026] It also includes a control system, which is used to obtain data from each pressure sensor, flow sensor, temperature sensor, and liquid level switch. The control system is also used to control the opening and closing of the pressure regulating valve, safety valve, high-pressure induced gas regulating valve, and sewage pump, and the opening size; the control system controls the pressure regulating valve to reduce the pressure to a set pressure value by obtaining the pressure sensor data on the two pipelines corresponding to the inert gas input end; the control system monitors the temperature sensor data on the sewage pipeline and compares it with the set threshold value, and alarms if the threshold value is exceeded; the control system monitors the liquid level switch data on the sewage tank and compares it with the set threshold value, if the liquid level exceeds the maximum value or is less than the minimum value, an alarm is issued, and if the liquid level exceeds the maximum value, the control system controls the sewage pump to start sewage discharge; the control system monitors the pressure sensor data corresponding to the sewage tank, and compares it with the set spacing piece pressure, if the data difference is within the set range, the safety valve is controlled to start, and the low-pressure gas is introduced into the low-pressure vent pipeline; the control system controls the opening size of the high-pressure induced gas regulating valve and the sewage tank pressure sensor to change synchronously in proportion.
[0027] Embodiment (taking setting two cylinder ends as an example):
[0028] like Figure 1As shown, the inert gas is divided into two paths. One path is equipped with flow sensor FT-1601, pressure regulating valve PCV-1601, and pressure sensor PT-1601. The pressure is reduced to P1 through the pressure reducing valve (pressure regulating valve PCV-1601); the other path is equipped with flow sensor FT-1602, pressure regulating valve PCV-1602, and pressure sensor PT-1602. The pressure is reduced to P2 through the pressure reducing valve (pressure regulating valve PCV-1602); where P1 is greater than P2. P1 pressure gas is filled into each seal at each cylinder end, and P2 pressure gas is filled into each spacing piece at each cylinder end. If the pressure changes after pressure regulation, timely feedback can be provided through pressure sensor PT-1601 and pressure sensor PT-1602.
[0029] The seal drain pipeline between the two cylinder ends and the drain tank is equipped with temperature sensors TT-1601 and TT-1602 respectively, and is discharged into the drain tank V-1601 through the upper part; the gas is discharged directly, and the liquid flows into the drain tank. The spacer vent pipeline merges into the drain pipeline, sinks to the lower part of the drain tank, and through the liquid seal, the liquid remains in the drain tank, and the gas enters the upper part of the drain tank.
[0030] When the seal leakage increases, the temperature of the sewage pipeline increases due to the high exhaust temperature of the compressor, and the feedback temperature of the temperature sensor TT-1601 or the temperature sensor TT-1602 increases. The sewage tank is equipped with liquid level switches LSL-101, LSH-102, and pressure sensor PT-1603. When the liquid level on the low-pressure side is too high or too low, or the pressure in the sewage tank is too high, an alarm is issued in time.
[0031] The gas side of the sewage tank is equipped with a flow sensor FT-1603, a safety valve PSV-1601, an ejector, a high-pressure ejector gas regulating valve PCV-1601, and also various ball valves VL, various check valves VC, and a pressure gauge PG. When the pressure of the sewage tank is too high and close to the pressure of the spacing piece, the safety valve PSV-1601 will start to release the gas into the low-pressure vent; the high-pressure ejector gas passes through the ejector and introduces the low-pressure gas into the low-pressure vent pipeline through the "Venturi effect", so that even if the pressure of the leaked low-pressure gas is high, it can be discharged smoothly. The high-pressure ejector gas regulating valve PCV-1601 is interlocked with the sewage tank pressure sensor PT-1603. When the sewage tank pressure increases, the regulating valve opening increases. When the sewage tank pressure decreases, the regulating valve opening decreases to reduce the consumption of high-pressure ejector gas. When the seal leakage increases, the gas flow FT-1603 and the sewage tank pressure PT-1603 increase.
[0032] When there is too much liquid in the sewage tank, the liquid level switch LSH-102 alarms, prompting the sewage pump P-1601 to discharge the liquid.
