[0040] Reference Figures 1-11This invention provides an active pressure relief safety switch for an LNG pneumatic filling gun: It includes a filling gun 1, a pneumatic adjustment mechanism 2 installed on the side wall of the filling gun 1, and a first adjustment mechanism 3 and a second adjustment mechanism 4 installed inside the pneumatic adjustment mechanism 2. The filling gun 1 includes a filling gun body 101, and the side wall of the filling gun body 101 has a first air inlet 102, a second air inlet 103, and a third air inlet 104. A first piston 105 and a second piston 106 are movably installed inside the filling gun body 101. The first air inlet 102 is located above the first piston 105, the second air inlet 103 is located between the first piston 105 and the second piston 106, and the third air inlet 104 is located below the second piston 106. A movable rod 107 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dispensing gun body 101. The bottom of the movable rod 107 passes through the bottom of the dispensing gun body 101 and extends to the underside of the dispensing gun body 101. A connecting nozzle 108 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable rod 107, which extends into the gas storage bottle to perform the gas filling operation. A fixing post 109 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dispensing gun body 101. A fixing sleeve 110 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing post 109. A clamping claw 111 is movably connected inside the fixing sleeve 110. There are multiple clamping claws 111. The clamping claws 111 can fix the dispensing gun 1 to the bottle mouth 5 of the gas storage bottle, so that the dispensing gun 1 can be stably clamped on the gas storage bottle. A limiting sleeve 113 is fitted on the outer side of the fixing sleeve 110. The outer surface of the connecting nozzle 108 is... The surface of the limiting sleeve 113 has a slot 112, and the surface of the limiting sleeve 113 has a screw hole 114. A screw (not shown) is installed inside the screw hole 114. The end of the screw extends into the slot 112, allowing the limiting sleeve 113 to move up and down with the connecting nozzle 108. When the limiting sleeve 113 moves downward, it presses down on the clamp 111 on the fixing sleeve 110, making the clamp 111 vertical. The vertical clamp 111 clamps onto the gas cylinder nozzle 5, thereby fixing the liquid dispensing gun 1 onto the gas cylinder. The pneumatic adjustment mechanism 2 includes a housing 201. The housing 201 has a first inner cavity and a second inner cavity. The side wall of the housing 201 has a compressed air connection hole 202, which communicates with the first inner cavity. The back of the shell 201 has a first connecting hole 203, a second connecting hole 204, and a third connecting hole 205. The position of the first connecting hole 203 corresponds to the position of the first air inlet 102, the position of the second connecting hole 204 corresponds to the position of the second air inlet 103, and the position of the third connecting hole 205 corresponds to the position of the third air inlet 104. A through hole 206 is provided between the first inner cavity and the second inner cavity. The first adjusting mechanism 3 is installed inside the first inner cavity, and the second adjusting mechanism 4 is installed inside the second inner cavity. The first adjusting mechanism 3 includes a first adjusting shaft 301. A first sealing ring 302 and a second sealing ring 303 are fixedly connected to the surface of the first adjusting shaft 301. The first sealing ring 302 is located above the second sealing ring 303.By changing the position of the first adjusting shaft 301, the positions of the first sealing ring 302 and the second sealing ring 303 can be changed, thereby changing the communication state between the first connecting hole 203, the second connecting hole 204, the third connecting hole 205 and the compressed air connecting hole 202. The second adjusting mechanism 4 includes a second adjusting shaft 401, and the surface of the second adjusting shaft 401 is fixedly connected to the third sealing ring 402 and the fourth sealing ring 403. The third sealing ring 402 is located above the fourth sealing ring 403. By changing the position of the second adjusting shaft 401, the positions of the third sealing ring 402 and the fourth sealing ring 403 can be changed. The position of 03 changes the connection state between the first connecting hole 203, the second connecting hole 204, the third connecting hole 205 and the compressed air connecting hole 202. In use, the compressed air pipe is connected to the compressed air connecting hole 202, and compressed air is introduced into the outer casing 201. Then, the positions of the first adjusting mechanism 3 and the second adjusting mechanism 4 are adjusted so that compressed air can enter the main body 101 of the dispensing gun from different air inlets, thereby controlling the movement of the first piston 105 and the second piston 106, thus realizing the operation of locking the gas cylinder nozzle 5 of the dispensing gun 1 and adding gas to the gas cylinder nozzle 5.

[0041] Specifically, first, the compressed air pipe is installed into the compressed air connection hole 202. Then, the positions of the first adjusting shaft 301 and the second adjusting shaft 401 are adjusted so that the through hole 206 is located between the first sealing ring 302 and the second sealing ring 303, and between the third sealing ring 402 and the fourth sealing ring 403. At this time, the second connection hole 204 is located above the first sealing ring 302, the third connection hole 205 is located below the second sealing ring 303, and the first connection hole 203 is located between the third sealing ring 402 and the fourth sealing ring 403. Compressed air will sequentially pass through the first inner cavity, the through hole 206, the second inner cavity, and the first... The connecting hole 203 and the first air inlet 102 enter the body 101 of the liquid dispensing gun. Compressed air will push the first piston 105 downward and move it downward. The first piston 105 will push the second piston 106 downward and move it to the first stage. When the second piston 106 moves to the first stage, it will drive the moving rod 107 and the connecting nozzle 108 to move to the first stage. When the first stage is moved, the connecting nozzle 108 is still above the gas cylinder nozzle 5 and has not entered the gas cylinder nozzle 5 to fill it. The limiting sleeve 113 will move downward, so that the clamp 111 is in a vertical state. At this time, the clamp 111 will clamp on the gas cylinder nozzle 5, so as to achieve the effect of fixing the liquid dispensing gun 1.

[0042] Next, adjust the positions of the first adjustment mechanism 3 and the second adjustment mechanism 4, and control the first adjustment shaft 301 to move upward so that the through hole 206 and the second connecting hole 204 are located between the first sealing ring 302 and the second sealing ring 303. Control the second adjustment shaft 401 to move upward so that the through hole 206 is located at the fourth sealing ring 403. At this time, the through hole 206 will be blocked by the fourth sealing ring 403, and the compressed air cannot enter the second inner cavity from the first inner cavity. The compressed air will enter the liquid gun body 101 through the first inner cavity, the second connecting hole 204, and the second through hole 103 in sequence. The compressed air will push the first piston 105 to move upward so that the first piston 105 returns to its original position and pushes the second piston 106 to move downward in the second stage. At this time, the second piston 106 will continue to move downward with the moving rod 107 and the connecting nozzle 108 so that the connecting nozzle 108 can be inserted into the gas storage bottle nozzle 5. At this time, the gas storage bottle can be filled with gas using the connecting nozzle 108.

[0043] After inflation is complete, adjust the first adjustment mechanism 3 to control the first adjustment shaft 301 to move downwards, so that the through hole 206 and the third connecting hole 205 are located between the first sealing ring 302 and the second sealing ring 303. The second adjustment shaft 401 remains stationary. At this time, compressed air will enter the liquid gun body 101 through the first inner cavity, the third connecting hole 205, and the third air inlet 104 in sequence. The compressed air will push the second piston 106 to move upwards. The second piston 106 will drive the moving rod 107 and the connecting nozzle 108 to move upwards together. At this time, the connecting nozzle 108 is pulled out from the gas storage bottle nozzle 5, and the limiting sleeve 113 moves upwards and no longer limits the gripper 111, so that the liquid gun 1 can be removed from the gas storage bottle nozzle 5.

[0044] The bottom of the liquid filling gun 1 is provided with a gas storage bottle nozzle 5, and the clamp 111 is located on the gas storage bottle nozzle 5. The liquid filling gun 1 can be clamped and installed on the gas storage bottle by the clamp 111, which facilitates stable filling.

[0045] Working principle: During use, by controlling the movement of the first adjusting shaft 301 and the second adjusting shaft 401, the air passage state inside the outer shell 201 is changed, so that compressed air can enter the main body 101 of the liquid filling gun from different air inlets. The movement of the first piston 105 and the second piston 106 is controlled, thereby achieving the effect of locking the liquid filling gun 1 and the gas storage bottle before filling, avoiding the situation where the liquid filling gun and the gas storage bottle separate during the filling process, causing LNG gas leakage.

[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
