Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of urea production technology, and in particular to a system and method for producing and rapidly filling high-concentration urine. Background Technology
[0002] Automotive urea, also known as diesel exhaust fluid, is a transparent liquid formulated with 32.5% high-purity urea and 67.5% deionized water. It is specifically designed for use in diesel vehicles' SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) exhaust treatment systems. This product converts nitrogen oxides in exhaust gases into harmless nitrogen and water vapor through a catalytic reaction, making it suitable for diesel vehicles that meet Euro IV and higher emission standards.
[0003] Automotive urea products are mainly promoted and sold through diversified sales channels to meet the needs of different customer groups. Offline physical sales are an extremely important channel. Currently, the main way to transport automotive urea products is by tanker trucks from the factory to offline distributors in various regions, which results in high logistics costs. Therefore, in order to save logistics costs and increase product sales, manufacturers have launched high-concentration urea. After being transported from the factory to offline distributors, the products are further blended and produced into finished automotive urea locally. However, due to the high concentration and crystallization temperature of high-concentration urea, conventional storage tanks cannot effectively store it. It can only be loaded directly onto trucks after being produced on the production line. The loading efficiency is low, and each loading takes several hours. The entire process requires continuous operation by operators, which consumes a lot of time and manpower. In addition, when loading, the operators are located on top of the tanker truck, and the temperature of the urea products in the filling pipeline is also very high, which poses a great risk of falling from height and being burned by high temperature.
[0004] Therefore, this application provides a system and method for producing and rapidly filling high-concentration urine to meet the needs. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a system and method for producing and rapidly filling high-concentration urine, so as to improve the loading efficiency of high-concentration urine, save time and labor costs, reduce operational risks, and enhance the safety of operators during loading operations.

A guardrail is located on the top edge of the working step. A synchronous limiting mechanism is located on one side of the guardrail. The synchronous limiting mechanism can limit the end of the loading arm, so that the loading arm and the movable ladder move synchronously. This eliminates the need to open the movable ladder and then return to the filling platform to operate the loading arm, improving the convenience and efficiency of the operation.
[0016] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment wheel, a guide rod, a connecting rod, a front support rod, and a rear support rod. A rotating sleeve is provided on the top of the end plate, and the adjustment wheel is rotatably connected to the rotating sleeve.

The movable ends of the front support rod, the rear support rod, and the connecting rod are hinged together. The position of the extension pedal can be adjusted by rotating the adjustment wheel, and the self-locking property of the threaded connection stabilizes the position of the extension pedal.
[0017] Preferably, the pallet has symmetrical track grooves on both sides, the bottom of the extension pedal has a shaft frame, multiple sets of shaft frames are evenly arranged, axle rods are rotatably connected to the shaft frame, multiple sets of axle rods are evenly distributed, support wheels are provided on the axle rods, multiple sets of support wheels are evenly distributed, the two sets of support wheels at both ends of the axle rod are adapted to the track grooves, the rear end of the shaft frame is hinged to a support arm, a torsion spring is press-fitted at the hinge of the shaft frame and the support arm, the end of the support arm is rotatably connected to a guide wheel, and the bottom of the front pedal is provided with...

Both the rear part of the track groove and the front part of the guide rail are provided with stops. The support wheel facilitates the movement of the extension pedal. The support arm cooperates with the limiting block to limit the rotation angle of the support arm, thereby providing top support for the rear side of the extension pedal and enhancing the stability of the extension pedal.
[0018] Preferably, the front side of each end plate is symmetrically provided with a front extension rod, and the rear side of the guardrail is symmetrically provided with a rear extension rod.

The outer limiting frame is hinged to the outside of the connecting frame, and the inner limiting frame is hinged to the inside of the connecting frame. The hinge parts of the outer limiting frame and the inner limiting frame are symmetrical on the connecting frame. The outer limiting frame and the inner limiting frame can be staggered. By cooperating with the positioning pin and the outer positioning hole and the inner positioning hole, the two sets of limiting frames with the through holes are fixed on the connecting frame, reducing interference with loading.
[0020] Preferably, the pipe head is provided with a sealing cap and a heat insulation sleeve. The heat insulation sleeve is located above the sealing cap. A rotating ring is rotatably connected to the heat insulation sleeve. There are two sets of rotating rings arranged vertically. The two sets of rotating rings are symmetrically provided with handles, which facilitates the operator to use the handles to operate the pipe head for insertion into the tank truck.
[0021] In addition, a method for producing and rapidly filling high-concentration urine is also provided, including the following steps:
[0022] S1. Prepare 75% urine solution. Switch pipelines to connect a section of the evaporator to the solution preparation tank A, and close the outlet of solution preparation tank A. The section of the evaporator produces concentrated urine, which is transported to solution preparation tank A through the first heat tracing pipeline. After the concentrated urine is transported, switch pipelines to connect the filling main pipeline to solution preparation tank A through the common heat tracing pipeline and the first heat tracing pipeline. Inject urine of a fixed concentration according to the concentration difference to make the urine in solution preparation tank A reach a concentration ratio of 75%. Switch pipelines to form a circulation pipeline between solution preparation tank A and the 75% urine filling pump. Turn on the 75% urine filling pump to make the urine in solution preparation tank A uniformly mixed to obtain 75% urine solution.
[0023] S2, 75% urine is loaded onto the truck. The pipeline is switched so that the mixing tank A is connected to the 75% urine filling loading arm through the second heat tracing pipeline. The insulated tank truck is parked at the filling station, and the operator uses the 75% urine filling loading arm to load the truck.
[0024] S3. Replacement fluid pipeline filling: After completing the loading of 75% urine, switch the pipeline to connect the main filling fluid line to the mixing tank B. Add sufficient replacement fluid to the mixing tank B, then switch the pipeline to connect the outlet of the mixing tank B to the inlet of the 75% urine filling pump through the first conventional pipeline and the third conventional pipeline. Connect the outlet of the 75% urine filling pump to the first inlet of the mixing tank B through the second heating pipeline and the first heating pipeline to replace the 75% urine pipeline.
[0025] Throughout the above steps, the low-pressure steam branch is kept in normal supply for insulation, liquid preparation, loading, and replacement.
[0026] Preferably, the concentrated urine temperature is 85℃-95℃, the concentration is 75%-80%, the low-pressure steam temperature is 110℃-130℃, and the storage volume of the mixing tank is 30-80m³.
[0027] Preferably, the concentrated urine is at a temperature of 90°C and a concentration of 75%, the low-pressure steam temperature is 120°C, and the mixing tank has a storage volume of 50 m³.
[0028] This system and method address the core pain points in the background technology, achieving breakthroughs in multiple dimensions, with the following specific beneficial effects:
[0029] First, it significantly improves loading efficiency and reduces labor and time costs.
[0030] Traditional methods require direct loading from the production line, taking up to 6 hours per operation with continuous staffing. This system, through a heated and insulated storage tank A with heated pipelines, breaks the limitation of "immediate production and immediate loading." 75% of urine can be temporarily stored in tank A, and loading can be completed quickly using a dedicated filling pump and loading arm, reducing loading time by more than 50%, depending on the tanker's volume. No long-term staffing is required.
[0031] The liquid preparation process is automated and precisely controlled through a flow meter, regulating ball valve, and circulating mixing design, eliminating the need for repeated manual concentration measurements and stirring, thus reducing manpower input; at the same time, pipeline switching is completed through valve linkage, avoiding the tedious operation of traditional manual pipeline insertion and removal.
[0032] II. Significantly reduces operational risks and improves operational safety;
[0033] Mitigating the risk of falls from height: The combination of movable ladder, extended steps, and guardrails in the 75% urine filling loading arm allows for flexible adjustment of the work platform position according to the tanker height. The guardrails surround the edge of the working steps, eliminating the need for operators to stand directly on top of the tanker. Furthermore, the loading arm and movable ladder move synchronously, improving ease of use.
[0034] To mitigate the risk of burns from high temperatures: The loading arm is equipped with an insulation sleeve to block the heat of urine at 85℃-95℃, while a synchronous limiting mechanism fixes the position of the loading arm to prevent operators from directly contacting the high-temperature pipeline; in addition, the heat tracing system maintains a stable pipeline temperature throughout the entire process, eliminating the risk of pipeline blockage or leakage caused by local cooling and crystallization.
[0035] Third, it solves the problem of storing 75% of urine and reduces logistics and equipment costs;
[0036] Traditional methods cannot store 75% urine in conventional tanks because it is prone to crystallization. Instead, it can only be directly loaded onto the production line, which limits the transportation radius and sales scope. This system uses double insulation of "heat tracing pipeline + external steam insulation pipeline" to make the volume of the liquid preparation tank A 30-80m³, preferably 50m³, which can stably store 75% urine. Manufacturers can produce in batches and temporarily store the urine, and then fill it in batches according to the needs of distributors, which improves production flexibility.
[0037] By reducing the transportation volume through high concentration, the logistics cost of 75% urine is only 1 / 3 to 1 / 2 of that of conventional finished urea. Moreover, the heat utilization rate of the low-pressure steam tracing system is increased by more than 30%. At the same time, the liquid preparation tank B and the differentiated filling pump can also handle conventional urine filling without the need to purchase special equipment separately, thus reducing equipment investment costs.
[0038] IV. Ensure product quality stability and adapt to end-user distribution needs;
[0039] The solution preparation process uses a precise concentration control flow meter and regulating ball valve for circulation mixing to ensure that 75% of the urine concentration deviation is ≤±0.5%, avoiding the problem of uneven concentration caused by traditional manual preparation.
[0040] After 75% of the urine reaches the distributor, it can be directly mixed with deionized water to form a 32.5% finished automotive urea solution without the need for additional equipment modifications. This meets the "on-site mixing" needs of end users and further reduces the storage and processing costs for distributors.
[0041] In summary, this system, through its integrated design of "thermal storage - precise liquid preparation - safe filling - pipeline replacement," comprehensively solves the efficiency, safety, and cost issues in the production, storage, and filling of 75% urea, providing technical support for the large-scale promotion of high-concentration automotive urea, while also meeting environmental regulations for the quality and logistics efficiency of automotive urea products.

[0068] Another method for producing and rapidly filling high-concentration urine is provided, including the following steps:
[0069] S1. Prepare 75% urine solution. Switch the pipeline to connect a first-stage evaporator to the solution preparation tank A, and close the outlet of solution preparation tank A. The first-stage evaporator produces concentrated urine at a temperature of 90℃ and a concentration of 75%, which is transported to solution preparation tank A through the first heat tracing pipeline. After the concentrated urine is transported, switch the pipeline to connect the filling main pipe to solution preparation tank A through the common heat tracing pipeline and the first heat tracing pipeline. Inject urine of a fixed concentration according to the concentration difference to make the urine in solution preparation tank A reach a concentration ratio of 75%. Switch the pipeline to form a circulation pipeline between solution preparation tank A and the 75% urine filling pump. Turn on the 75% urine filling pump to make the urine in solution preparation tank A uniformly mixed to obtain 75% urine solution.
[0070] S2, 75% urine is loaded onto the truck. The pipeline is switched so that the mixing tank A is connected to the 75% urine filling loading arm through the second heat tracing pipeline. The insulated tank truck is parked at the filling station, and the operator uses the 75% urine filling loading arm to load the truck.
[0071] S3. Replacement fluid pipeline filling: After completing the loading of 75% urine, switch the pipeline to connect the main filling fluid line to the mixing tank B. Add sufficient replacement fluid to the mixing tank B, then switch the pipeline to connect the outlet of the mixing tank B to the inlet of the 75% urine filling pump through the first conventional pipeline and the third conventional pipeline. Connect the outlet of the 75% urine filling pump to the first inlet of the mixing tank B through the second heating pipeline and the first heating pipeline to replace the 75% urine pipeline.
[0072] Throughout the above steps, the low-pressure steam branch is maintained at a normal supply of 120℃ for heat tracing and insulation, and the insulation solution is prepared, loaded and replaced.
[0073] This system achieves stable production and efficient, safe filling of 75% urine solution through a closed-loop process of "production solution preparation - rapid filling - pipeline replacement," combined with heat tracing and insulation, pipeline switching, and structural optimization design. Specifically, it consists of three core stages:
[0074] I. 75% Urine Production and Solution Preparation Stage;
[0075] Concentrated urine transport and initial storage: A first-stage evaporator produces concentrated urine at 90℃ and a concentration of 75%. This concentrated urine is then transported to mixing tank A via a first heating pipeline, where it is kept at 120℃ by a low-pressure steam branch to prevent cooling and crystallization. During this stage, the outlet of mixing tank A is closed by switching pipeline valves. Simultaneously, the external steam insulation pipe of mixing tank A is connected to the heating pipe of the heating pipeline for double insulation, ensuring that the urine in the first heating pipeline and mixing tank A is always maintained above the crystallization temperature of 60℃, solving the problem that conventional storage tanks cannot handle.
[0076] Precise concentration adjustment: After the concentrated urine is delivered, the pipeline is switched so that the main filling pipeline delivers regular urine through the "common heat tracing pipeline + first heat tracing pipeline" to the mixing tank A. Based on the concentration difference between the concentrated urine and regular urine, the flow meter and regulating ball valve at the front end of the first heat tracing pipeline precisely control the injection volume of regular urine until the urine in the mixing tank A reaches the target concentration of 75%.
[0077] Uniform mixing: Switch the pipeline again so that the outlet of the liquid preparation tank A forms a circulation loop with the first heat tracing pipeline through the second heat tracing pipeline and the 75% urine filling pump. Start the 75% urine filling pump to allow the urine in the tank to circulate under heat tracing, so as to achieve uniform mixing and avoid local concentration deviations from affecting subsequent use.
[0078] II. Rapid filling stage with 75% urine;
[0079] Pipeline switching and workstation preparation: After completing the liquid preparation, switch the connecting valve between the second heating pipeline and the 75% urine filling loading arm, and simultaneously park the insulated tank truck at the filling station. At this time, the 75% urine in the liquid preparation tank A remains stable under the maintenance of the heating system, eliminating the need to load directly from the production line as in the traditional method, thus breaking the limitation of "immediate production and immediate loading".
[0080] Safe and efficient filling: The operator climbs onto the filling platform 1, lowers the movable ladder 2, and moves the working pedal 5 simultaneously. The connecting frame 6 on the guardrail 50 moves synchronously. At this time, the outer limit frame 61 and the inner limit frame 62 are fixed at the inner positioning hole by the positioning pin 65. The two sets of clamps 63 connected to the limit frames hold the pipe head 30, so that the movable ladder 2 moves synchronously with the loading arm 3. According to the parking position of the tanker, the adjusting wheel 7 on the rotating sleeve 22 is rotated, driving the guide rod 24 to move downward along the guide sleeve 23, driving the connecting rod 25 to move, and pushing the hinge joint between the front support rod 26 and the rear support rod 27. This pushes the extension pedal 4 forward, adjusting the position of the working pedal 5 so that the working pedal 5 can fall onto the top of the tanker. During this process, the support wheel 44 on the bottom axle frame 42 of the extension pedal 4 rolls along the track groove 41 on the pallet 40, reducing the friction when the extension pedal 4 moves. The guide wheel 46 moves forward along the guide rail 8, causing the support arm 45 to flip. The limiting block 47 limits the support arm 45, so that the support arm 45 supports the extension pedal 4. At the same time, the rear extension rod 51 moves with the guardrail 50 and moves in the opposite direction to the front extension rod 28, which plays a stabilizing role above the guardrail 50.
[0081] After lowering the working pedal 5 to the top of the tanker truck, remove the positioning pin 65. Hold the handle 64 to operate the outer limit frame 61 and inner limit frame 62 to open the clamp 63. Then, use the positioning pin 65 to limit the outer limit frame 61 and inner limit frame 62 at the outer positioning hole 60. Next, use the handle to move the pipe head 30 via the rotating ring 33, inserting the pipe head 30 into the tanker truck's inlet. Place the sealing cap 31 over the inlet to prevent leakage. The heat insulation sleeve 32 reduces the risk of burns during operation. Then, start the 75% urine filling pump to complete the filling. Compared to the traditional 6-hour loading time, this system significantly shortens the loading time through a dedicated filling pump and optimized loading arm structure. Simultaneously, the guardrail 50 prevents falls from height, and the heat insulation sleeve 32 of the pipe head 30 prevents burns from high temperatures, forming a double safety protection to address the safety risks to operators.
[0082] III. Pipeline replacement stage;
[0083] To avoid 75% urine residue affecting subsequent routine urine filling, the pipeline replacement process is initiated after loading is completed:
[0084] Switch the pipeline to allow the main filling line to add sufficient regular urine as replacement fluid to the mixing tank B through the first conventional pipeline;
[0085] Switch the pipeline again so that the outlet of the solution tank B is connected to the inlet of the 75% urine filling pump through the "second conventional pipeline + third conventional pipeline", and at the same time, connect the outlet of the 75% urine filling pump to the first inlet of the solution tank B through the "second heat tracing pipeline + first heat tracing pipeline" to form a replacement fluid circulation loop.
[0086] Start the 75% urine filling pump to circulate the replacement fluid in the first heat-traced pipeline, the second heat-traced pipeline, and the common heat-traced pipeline related to 75% urine, so as to completely remove the residual 75% urine and prepare for subsequent regular urine filling or the next round of 75% urine production.
[0087] IV. Supporting process collaboration;
[0088] Throughout the process, a condensate recovery pipe is installed at the front end to recover the condensate generated by the external steam insulation pipe and the conventional liquid distribution system heat tracing pipeline, thus avoiding energy waste. Liquid distribution tank B can achieve conventional urine filling through "second conventional pipeline + conventional urine filling arm", and the differentiated filling pump can be reused through pipeline switching to 75% urine-related processes, improving equipment utilization.
[0089] Example 2:
[0090] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the first evaporator produces concentrated urine at a temperature of 95°C and a concentration of 80%, and the first heat tracing pipeline is provided with heat tracing and insulation at 130°C by a low-pressure steam branch throughout.
[0091] Example 3:
[0092] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the first evaporator produces concentrated urine at a temperature of 85°C and a concentration of 77%, and the first heat tracing pipeline is provided with heat tracing and insulation at 110°C by a low-pressure steam branch throughout.
