Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of natural gas liquefaction thermal insulation storage, and in particular relates to a natural gas liquefaction thermal insulation storage device and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Liquefied natural gas (LNG) vaporizes rapidly at room temperature and pressure, so it must be stored at low temperatures and normal pressure. To ensure its stability and reduce evaporation losses, thermal insulation is crucial. This measure also effectively mitigates potential safety risks and ensures the safe storage of LNG.

[0003] The existing process for liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage involves pre-processing the extracted natural gas to remove impurities. The pre-treated natural gas is then pressurized by a compressor and fed into a cooling system. Using multi-stage cooling technology, the natural gas is gradually cooled to near its liquefaction point. At each cooling stage, a portion of the natural gas begins to liquefy, while the remaining unliquefied gas continues to the next cooling stage, absorbing and removing the heat from the natural gas. When the natural gas is cooled to a sufficiently low temperature, it will eventually fully liquefy. At this point, the LNG is stored in specialized insulated tanks, typically double-walled with an insulating material such as perlite or polyurethane foam.

[0004] However, during the use of existing natural gas liquefaction insulation storage devices, because the natural gas storage tanks are used for a long time and have interlayers, they are not often disassembled for maintenance. This leads to the internal liquid outlet pipelines being corroded and damaged to a certain extent on the inner wall of the pipelines after long-term use, resulting in the mixing of pipeline corrosion products or external pollutants during the natural gas transportation process, resulting in the problem of reducing the purity of the liquefied natural gas and possibly causing the problem of accelerated pipeline corrosion.

The scraping assembly is used to scrape off corrosive substances on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe. The scraping assembly includes a connecting shaft rotatably provided on the bottom wall of the liquid outlet pipe, and a cleaning ring is provided on the circumferential surface of the connecting shaft for reciprocating sliding. The circumferential surface of the cleaning ring abuts against the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, thereby scraping off the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe; a sealing member is provided on the inner wall of the box body, and the sealing member is used to seal the bottom wall of the liquid outlet pipe. The sealing member includes a connecting ring slidably provided inside the box body, and the connecting ring can be plugged into the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe to complete the sealing work of the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe.

[0026] Specifically, in existing liquefied natural gas insulation storage devices, because the natural gas storage tanks are used for a long time and have interlayers, they are not often disassembled for maintenance. As a result, the internal liquid outlet pipeline will be corroded and damaged over time. This causes pipeline corrosion products or external contaminants to mix into the natural gas during transportation, resulting in reduced purity of the liquefied natural gas and possibly accelerated pipeline corrosion. Therefore, the present invention sets a corresponding structure to solve the above problems. First, liquefied natural gas is injected into the tank through the liquid inlet for storage. When the liquefied natural gas needs to be taken out, the liquefied gas will flow out through the liquid outlet pipe, and the scraping component set inside the liquid outlet pipe plays a key role. The connecting shaft drives the cleaning ring to slide back and forth on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe. This reciprocating motion ensures that the cleaning ring can fully and effectively scrape off the corrosive substances on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, preventing the corrosive substances from further eroding the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, ensuring that the liquid outlet pipe is unobstructed. At the same time, the sealing of the inner wall of the tank The seal ensures the sealing of the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe. The plug-in design of the connecting ring and the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe makes the sealing effect more reliable, avoids the leakage of liquefied natural gas, and improves the safety of storage. The design of the scraper component effectively solves the problem of corrosion accumulation on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, extends the service life of the liquid outlet pipe, and reduces maintenance costs. At the same time, the setting of the seal enhances the sealing performance of the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe, ensures the safe storage of liquefied natural gas, and avoids safety hazards caused by leakage. In addition, the device has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and is easy to maintain and service. The problem of a large amount of corrosive substances adhering to the inside of the pipes in the storage box after long-term use is solved.

[0028] Specifically, when the liquid outlet pipe is scraped, the first motor is started first. The rotation of the first motor drives the rotating plate to rotate to the top of the liquid outlet pipe. At this time, the first hydraulic cylinder is started again. The first hydraulic cylinder drives the plug-in block at its output end to move downward, so that the slot provided on the lower surface of the plug-in block is plugged into the protrusion. After the plug-in block and the protrusion are plugged into each other, the second motor is started. The start of the second motor drives the transmission belt to perform transmission work. The transmission belt then drives the rotating column connected to the output end of the first hydraulic cylinder. The rotation of the rotating column drives the plug-in block to rotate, and then drives the protrusion plugged into the plug-in block. The rotation of the protrusion then drives the connecting shaft fixed to its bottom end to rotate. The connecting shaft is a reciprocating screw, which drives the cleaning ring sliding on its circumferential surface to move up and down to perform scraping work. Through the coordinated work of the first motor, the first hydraulic cylinder and the second motor, the automatic scraping of corrosive substances on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe is realized, which improves the scraping efficiency and reduces the complexity of manual operation. The reciprocating screw serves as a connecting shaft to ensure the stable and continuous up and down movement of the cleaning ring on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, thereby achieving comprehensive scraping of corrosive substances. In addition, the plug-in design of the plug and the protrusion ensures the stability and reliability of the scraping work, avoiding problems such as poor scraping effect or equipment damage caused by loose connections.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the cross-sections of the slot and the protrusion in this embodiment are both in a straight line shape, thereby being able to complete the plug-in operation and simultaneously drive the connecting shaft to drive the cleaning ring to perform the scraping operation.

[0030] Example 2: Figures 1 to 8 As shown, comparative example 1, wherein another embodiment of the present invention is: the sealing member includes a second hydraulic cylinder fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body, the output end of the second hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to a fixed column, the top of the fixed column is fixedly connected to a connecting ring, the connecting ring is used to seal the liquid outlet pipe, a plurality of spray holes are opened inside the connecting ring, a water inlet pipe is provided inside the box body, a multi-section telescopic pipe is fixedly connected to one side of the water inlet pipe, the multi-section telescopic pipe is fixedly connected to the connecting ring, the water inlet pipe is used to pass a cleaning agent to assist in cleaning the corrosive substances on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, a spiral rod is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the liquid outlet pipe, the bottom end of the spiral rod is inserted into the positioning hole opened on the surface of the fixed column, the surface of the spiral rod is rotatably connected to a sealing disk, and the sealing disk is used to seal the spray hole.

[0031] Specifically, before scraping and cleaning the liquid outlet pipe, the second hydraulic cylinder is first started to push the connecting ring on the upper surface of the fixed column to seal the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe. During the sealing process, the connecting ring can push the sealing disk to move upward along the spiral rod, and the spiral rod is passively inserted into the positioning hole while its position remains unchanged. The sealing disk rotates during the upward movement of the spiral rod. During the rotation, the sealing disk releases the seal on the spray hole. When the connecting ring is completely plugged into the liquid outlet pipe, the sealing disk is completely opened, thereby allowing the spray hole to spray the cleaning agent, and the auxiliary cleaning ring scrapes the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe. Before scraping and cleaning the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, the second hydraulic cylinder pushes the connecting ring to seal the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe, ensuring the smooth progress of the cleaning work and avoiding leakage of the cleaning agent. At the same time, the connecting ring pushes the sealing disk to rise along the spiral rod and rotate to open the spray hole, cleverly realizing the timed and quantitative spraying of the cleaning agent, which not only saves the use of cleaning agent, but also enhances the cleaning effect, improves the degree of automation of the cleaning work, and reduces the difficulty and cost of manual operation.

[0032] A method for using a natural gas liquefied thermal insulation storage device, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Filling with liquefied natural gas: First, connect the external liquefied natural gas tank to the annular groove 212 of the liquid storage box 1 through the feed pipe, open the liquid inlet 11, and inject liquefied natural gas into the liquid storage box 1. After the injection is completed, close the sealing valve and disconnect the connecting pipeline; Step 2: Operation and insulation: Start the water pump in the cooling tank and send the coolant into the interlayer of the liquid storage tank 1 through the water inlet pipe 37. After heat exchange, the coolant returns to the cooling tank through the water outlet pipe to achieve circulation and insulation.

[0033] Step 3: End of transportation and discharge: After the transportation is completed, the liquefied natural gas is discharged into the external natural gas tank through the liquid outlet pipe 12, the sealing valve and the water pump are closed, and the pipeline connection is disconnected.

[0034] Preferably, step 2 of ending transportation and discharge is specifically that after the transportation and discharge are completed, when cleaning the storage box 1, the connecting ring 32 of the seal is first started to seal the bottom end of the liquid outlet rod, and then the scraping component is started to clean the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe 12.

[0035] Working principle: First, liquefied natural gas is injected into the tank through the liquid inlet for storage. When liquefied natural gas needs to be taken out, the liquefied gas will flow out through the liquid outlet pipe, and the scraping component set inside the liquid outlet pipe plays a key role. The connecting shaft drives the cleaning ring to slide back and forth on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe. This reciprocating motion ensures that the cleaning ring can fully and effectively scrape off the corrosive substances on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, preventing the corrosive substances from further eroding the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, ensuring the unobstructed flow of the liquid outlet pipe. At the same time, the seal on the inner wall of the tank ensures the bottom of the liquid outlet pipe is clean. Sealing: The plug-in design of the connecting ring and the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe makes the sealing effect more reliable, avoids the leakage of liquefied natural gas, and improves the safety of storage. The design of the scraper component effectively solves the problem of corrosion accumulation on the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe, extends the service life of the liquid outlet pipe, and reduces maintenance costs. At the same time, the setting of the seal enhances the sealing performance of the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe, ensures the safe storage of liquefied natural gas, and avoids safety hazards caused by leakage. In addition, the device has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and is easy to maintain and service. When the liquid outlet pipe is scraped, the first motor is started first. The rotation of the first motor drives the rotating plate to rotate to the top of the liquid outlet pipe. At this time, the first hydraulic cylinder is started again. The first hydraulic cylinder drives the plug at its output end to move downward so that the slot provided on the lower surface of the plug is plugged into the protrusion. After the plug and the protrusion are plugged in, the second motor is started. The start of the second motor drives the transmission belt to perform transmission work. The transmission belt then drives the rotating column connected to the output end of the first hydraulic cylinder. The rotation of the rotating column drives the plug to rotate, and then drives the protrusion plugged in with the plug. The rotation of the protrusion then drives the connecting shaft fixed to its bottom end to rotate. The connecting shaft is a reciprocating screw, which drives the cleaning ring sliding on its circumferential surface to move up and down to perform scraping work. The coordinated operation of the first motor, the first hydraulic cylinder, and the second motor enables automated scraping of corrosive materials from the inner wall of the outlet pipe, improving scraping efficiency and reducing the complexity of manual operation. The reciprocating screw, serving as a connecting shaft, ensures stable and continuous up and down movement of the cleaning ring on the inner wall of the outlet pipe, thereby achieving comprehensive scraping of corrosive materials. Furthermore, the plug-in design of the plug and the protrusion ensures the stability and reliability of the scraping operation, avoiding problems such as poor scraping results or equipment damage caused by loose connections. In addition, before scraping and cleaning the liquid outlet pipe, first start the second hydraulic cylinder to push the connecting ring on the upper surface of the fixed column to seal the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe. During the sealing process, the connecting ring can push the sealing disk to move upward along the spiral rod, and the spiral rod is passively inserted into the positioning hole while its position remains unchanged. The sealing disk rotates during the upward movement of the spiral rod. During the rotation, the sealing disk releases the seal on the spray hole. When the connecting ring is completely connected to the liquid outlet pipe, the sealing disk is completely opened, thereby allowing the spray hole to spray out the cleaning agent, and the auxiliary cleaning ring scrapes the inner wall of the liquid outlet pipe. The second hydraulic cylinder pushes the connecting ring to seal the bottom end of the liquid outlet pipe, ensuring the smooth progress of the cleaning work and avoiding leakage of the cleaning agent. At the same time, the connecting ring pushes the sealing disk to rise along the spiral rod and rotate to open the spray hole, cleverly realizing the timed and quantitative spraying of the cleaning agent, which not only saves the use of cleaning agent, but also enhances the cleaning effect, improves the degree of automation of the cleaning work, and reduces the difficulty and cost of manual operation.
