Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of testing equipment, and in particular to a dual-position radial fracture test system for a safety breakaway valve used in petrochemicals. Background Technology
[0002] According to HG / T 21608-2012 "Technical Requirements for Liquid Loading and Unloading Arms," the safety breakaway valve, as a key component of the emergency disconnection system in land-based or marine liquid loading and unloading arms for hazardous liquid transportation systems, is one of the key factors determining the overall safety of the system. A safety breakaway valve is a critical safety protection device installed at the connection point of a hazardous fluid transportation pipeline. Its main function is to automatically disconnect the valve when subjected to sudden abnormal external forces such as pulling, dragging, or accidental impact, prioritizing the breakage of its weakest safety component, the shear pin or breakable bolt. Upon disconnection, it achieves self-sealing at both ends, preventing leakage of hazardous fluid media and thus avoiding accidents such as fires, explosions, environmental pollution, and personal injury. Due to their safety features, safety breakaway valves are widely used in various fluid loading and unloading situations where there is a risk of accidental dragging, such as: 1) the filling / refueling process at gas stations, installed on the refueling hose, automatically disconnecting and self-sealing when a vehicle accidentally drives away with the nozzle, preventing fuel leakage and equipment tipping accidents; 2) the dock-ship-shore connection process, enabling emergency detachment in case of accidental ship drift, ensuring safety; 3) the loading and unloading process of dangerous liquid cargo in road / rail tank cars, preventing the danger of pipeline tearing caused by vehicles driving away without detaching from the hose; 4) the aerospace fuel refueling process, used in liquid hydrogen, liquid oxygen, and other refueling systems, achieving self-sealing when accidentally detached, preventing leakage of high-risk liquids / gases, and ensuring operational safety under extreme conditions.
[0003] In the above application scenarios, the safety disconnect valve essentially acts as a weak connection point in the fluid transmission system. During normal operation, it maintains a stable connection of the fluid pipeline. When the external force exceeds the preset threshold, the device will immediately trigger the separation mechanism, causing the one-way valves on both sides of the safety shut-off valve to close rapidly under the spring force, achieving bidirectional sealing and avoiding the danger of dangerous fluid leakage.
[0004] In the above application scenarios, the safety break valve plays an important role in preventing leakage by breaking the protective component due to sudden traction and dragging. The stress situation of the safety break valve during this process can be summarized into the following key points and research difficulties: 1) The sudden dragging situation is similar to an instantaneous impact or collision process; 2) The sudden dragging has directional uncertainty; 3) The stress on the protective component can be mainly decomposed into axial tensile stress and radial shear force; 2) The stress is instantaneous; 3) Protective fracture occurs at structural weaknesses such as breakable bolts or shear pins; 4) Radial shear force plays a dominant role in the fracture process.
[0005] Currently, existing domestic and international standards such as GB / T 38520-2020 "Marine Cryogenic Breakaway Valves", GB / T 22380.2-2019 "Safety Technology for Explosion-proof Fuel Dispensing Stations Part 2: Safety Requirements for Structure and Performance of Safety Breakaway Valves for Fuel Dispensers", EN14432:2023, and other research literature are mostly focused on or limited to the study of static axial tensile fracture, while there is relatively little research on the main stress radial shear force and full strain process generated by the instantaneous impact of the safety breakaway valve during sudden towing. Therefore, the existing domestic research on fracture testing of safety breakaway valves and the related devices used mostly exhibit the following characteristics or shortcomings: 1) Hydraulic axial tension devices can only perform axial tension tests. Due to the characteristics of hydraulics, the output force is large and stable, but the loading process is slow, making it impossible to achieve instantaneous thrust output and simulate the instantaneous nature of the dragging process and the situation of fracture mainly caused by shear force; 2) Pendulum radial impact testing devices are large in size and occupy a lot of space. Improper tooling design may prevent rotation to release energy, causing the pendulum to remain on the surface of the test piece after impact, preventing energy release through the fracture point. This results in multiple energy rebounds, significantly reducing test accuracy. Furthermore, the pendulum counterweight and height need to be reset according to the load requirements each time, leading to large system errors and low test efficiency and accuracy; 3) The traditional measurement tools used in the above devices, such as strain gauges, displacement sensors, accelerometers, and extensometers, can only obtain limited local data points and cannot track and analyze the full strain scenario, resulting in insufficient information and accuracy for finite element evaluation. None of the above devices can meet the requirements for accurate measurement and numerical characterization of the safety shut-off valve's breakage due to instantaneous radial shear force during sudden dragging or impact processes. This is detrimental to improving the safety, product quality, and widespread application of the safety shut-off valve in hazardous fluid loading and unloading systems. Summary of the Invention

The 100° rotating circular hole slot allows the left-end threaded bar to pass through and rotate after connecting with the left-end stepped shaft blind plate. The upper shoulder of the left-end stepped shaft blind plate presses against the inner ring of the left-end bearing and holds the left-end stepped... The shaft portion is vertically inserted into the left end barrel. The blind plate portion of the left end stepped shaft blind plate is fixedly installed outside the left end barrel. The left end inverted T-shaped bracket is used to connect the flange at the other end of the safety break valve under test. The left end inverted T-shaped bracket rotates and is positioned together with the left end stepped shaft blind plate. The pressure stabilizing tank is placed on the outer side of the upper end of the left end inverted T-shaped bracket. The first manual valve for fluid medium switching and the second manual valve for venting are respectively placed on the side branch and the top of the pressure stabilizing tank. The pressure sensor for transmitting pressure signals to the high-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis system in real time is placed between the first manual valve and the pressure stabilizing tank. The pressure gauge for on-site test pressure monitoring is located on the top of the pressure stabilizing tank.
[0011] Furthermore, the slide rail is a parallel double-row slide rail with an X-shaped cross-section, which mates with a dovetail groove bottom plate and has a displacement locking structure.
[0012] Furthermore, the slide rail end is equipped with an anti-collision buffer bracket, which includes an elastic-plastic buffer block and an L-shaped bracket. The anti-collision buffer bracket is placed at the middle position of the displacement endpoint of the parallel double-row slide rails, and the elastic-plastic buffer block is fixedly installed on the front side of the L-shaped bracket.

[0016] Furthermore, a through hole is opened in the middle of the vertical plate of the left-end inverted T-shaped bracket to allow the test fluid to enter and exit. The through hole connects the pressure stabilizing tank and the safety break valve under test.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1) The high-frequency high-pressure pulse air cannon device simulates instantaneous impact load, achieving a shock wave similar to that generated by a bomb explosion, concentrating the impact energy at a high speed in one place. It can accurately reproduce the instantaneous damage process of the safety break valve under test when it is subjected to sudden drag or impact during use, eliminating the shortcomings of the traditional hydraulic test device's unidirectional slow test and the pendulum impact test device's test distortion, deviation, and large error, and greatly improving the accuracy and effectiveness of the test.
[0018] 2) The dual-station zero-load fixture design with sliding / rotating / locking installation avoids the need for extensive fixture fabrication in traditional hydraulic and other tests. It eliminates the adverse effects of traditional fixtures, such as reduced test accuracy due to preload stress and damage to the valve and sealing structure caused by the valve components remaining in their original positions after shear pin or breakage bolt breaks. It satisfies the requirements for rotational energy release and buffering safety in mid-section instantaneous impact tests, as well as sliding energy release and buffering safety in end-section instantaneous impact tests, significantly improving test effectiveness, accuracy, efficiency, and automation level.
[0019] 3) High-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis technology is adopted to replace and eliminate the limitation of traditional sensing measurement that can only provide local strain information. It provides high-definition image measurement and recognition of the entire strain field, and can realize real-time imaging and analysis of tensile force, stress-strain, impact force value, and internal medium pressure, as well as data processing optimization functions. This provides a solid foundation for product simulation optimization analysis and quality improvement, and helps to perform high-precision and accurate simulation measurement and optimization analysis of the instantaneous shearing process of safety break valve under sudden dragging.
[0020] 4) By employing high-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis technology, high-frequency high-pressure pulse air cannon simulation of instantaneous load technology, and dual-station zero-load tooling design with sliding / rotating / locking installation, the shortcomings of traditional sensing measurement, hydraulic or pendulum systems, and the influence of installation preload on measurement accuracy are replaced and eliminated. This achieves high-precision, high-resolution full strain or instantaneous deformation fracture measurement, effectively simulating and measuring the instantaneous shear fracture process of safety pull-off valves under sudden dragging. It features high automation, intelligence, high measurement and analysis accuracy, convenient measurement and installation, and small equipment size, improving detection efficiency and accuracy, reducing detection costs, and contributing to product safety and quality improvement.

The signal synchronization triggering and acquisition device is used to connect the high-frequency high-resolution industrial camera and the high-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis data processing center, and plays the role of a bridge for synchronous signal triggering, acquisition, transmission and control. The high-frequency, high-resolution industrial camera is connected to the signal synchronization triggering and acquisition device, the high-frequency, high-resolution industrial camera and the high-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis data processing center. It receives synchronous signal triggering and high-frequency acquisition and captures the parameters of the impact-deformation-fracture process of the tested product and feeds them back to the high-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis data processing center in real time. During the test, the camera can be focused on the key parts of the shear pin or the fracture bolt as needed. The safety break valve under test is the product under test, installed between the right end bracket assembly and the left end bracket assembly; The anti-collision buffer bracket includes an elastic-plastic buffer block and an L-shaped bracket, which are mounted on the base frame above the middle of the parallel slide rail travel end; The elastic-plastic buffer block is installed in front of the L-shaped bracket. When the end impact test is conducted, the safety break valve under test is subjected to instantaneous impact, and the shear pin or the break bolt breaks, causing the right end of the safety break valve under test to slide along the slide rail with the right end bracket assembly, thus playing the role of stopping the sliding of the above-mentioned components, releasing energy and providing buffer protection. The L-shaped bracket is installed behind the elastic-plastic buffer block and is firmly connected to the base frame, providing strength support. The slide rail is designed as a parallel double-row slide rail structure with an X-shaped cross-section. It has the function of preventing the sliding block from flying out during the movement process and has a displacement locking function. It is installed on the upper right of the base frame and cooperates with the right end support assembly to provide a reliable channel for the sliding of the right end support assembly.
[0037] A dual-position radial fracture test system for a safety breakaway valve used in petrochemicals includes two fracture test circuits: a central high-speed radial impact fracture test and an end high-speed radial impact fracture test.
[0038] During the high-speed radial impact fracture test in the middle section, first remove the positioning pins between the right end barrel 2.2 and the right end stepped shaft blind plate 2.5, and between the left end barrel 4.2 and the left end stepped shaft blind plate 4.5, so that it can rotate smoothly to release energy when the safety break valve under test breaks under instantaneous force in the middle section. Then lock the sliding of the slide rail 9 and the right end support assembly 2. Then connect the safety break valve 7 under test between the right end support assembly 2 and the left end support assembly 4, so that the safety break valve 7 is in a radial state with no initial load or negligible load. Fix the high-speed thrust release device 3.1 of the high-frequency high-pressure pulse air cannon 3 to the base frame 1 and align it with the middle of the safety break-off valve 7 under test: (e.g.) Figure 1 China F r Position and adjust the distance. Focus the high-frequency, high-resolution industrial camera 6.3 on the middle of the tested safety break-off valve 7 to capture the entire breakage process from all angles, enabling image measurement and simulation optimization analysis; Connect and debug the high-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis system 6, as well as the pressure sensor 4.8, the pressurization device 5, and the high-frequency high-pressure pulse triggering device 3.2, and prepare for synchronous data and image transmission, control and processing; Inject liquid and pressurize the installed test break valve 7. First, connect the pressurizing device 5 to the end of the first manual valve 4.7 with a pressure hose. Open the first manual valve 4.7 and the second manual valve 4.10 and start the pressurizing device 5. When liquid overflows from the second manual valve 4.10, close the second manual valve 4.10. Continue to pressurize to the specified test pressure, then close the first manual valve 4.7 and remove the pressure hose and pressurizing device 5. The high-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis system 6 controls the operation of the high-frequency high-voltage pulse air cannon 3 remotely or locally, simultaneously recording images and data and performing simulation optimization analysis. This generates an instantaneous impact force, causing the shear pin or breakage bolt at the middle flange of the tested safety break-off valve 7 to break. Consequently, both ends of the safety break-off valve 7 rotate along the movement trajectories of the right threaded round bar 2.3 of the right end support assembly 2 and the left threaded round bar 4.3 of the left end support assembly 4. Figure 2 As shown, energy release is completed and stops when the right-end elasto-plastic anti-collision buffer pad 2.7 and the left-end elasto-plastic anti-collision buffer pad 4.12 are contacted.
[0039] During the high-speed radial impact fracture test at the end, positioning pins are placed between the right end barrel 2.2 and the right end stepped shaft blind plate 2.5, and between the left end barrel 4.2 and the left end stepped shaft blind plate 4.5 to fix them in place, so as to prevent the right end support assembly 2 and the left end support assembly 4 from rotating. Release the sliding lock between the slide rail 9 and the right end bracket assembly 2, allowing the latter to slide freely under force; connect the safety break valve 7 to be tested between the right end bracket assembly 2 and the left end bracket assembly 4, so that the safety break valve 7 is in a radial state with no initial load or negligible load; fix the high-speed thrust release device 3.1 of the high-frequency high-pressure pulse air cannon 3 to the base frame 1 and align it with the end of the safety break valve 7 to be tested, such as... Figure 1 China F r Position and adjust the distance; focus the high-frequency, high-resolution industrial camera 6.3 on the middle of the tested safety break-through valve 7 to capture the entire breakage process from all angles, enabling image measurement and simulation optimization analysis; connect and debug the high-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis system 6, as well as the pressure sensor 4.8, pressurizing device 5, and high-frequency high-pressure pulse triggering device 3.2, and prepare for synchronous data and image transmission, control, and processing; inject liquid and pressurize the installed tested break-through valve 7, first connecting the pressurizing device 5 to the end of the first manual valve 4.7 with a pressure hose, opening the first manual valve 4.7 and the second manual valve 4.10 and starting the pressurizing device 5; when liquid overflows from the second manual valve 4.10, close the second manual valve 4.10, continue pressurizing to the specified test pressure, then close the first manual valve 4.7, and remove the pressure hose and pressurizing device 5; The high-resolution image measurement and simulation optimization analysis system 6 controls the operation of the high-frequency high-voltage pulse air cannon 3 remotely or locally, and simultaneously records images and data and performs simulation optimization analysis. This generates an instantaneous impact force on the end of the safety break valve 7, causing the shear pin or break bolt at the middle flange of the safety break valve 7 to break. This causes the right end component of the safety break valve 7 to slide along the slide rail 9 with the right end support assembly 2 until it contacts the elastic-plastic buffer block 8.1 of the anti-collision buffer bracket 8 at the end of the slide rail, after which the energy is released and the operation stops.
