DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0019] like Figure 1The oxygen-depleted filling device shown includes a mixer 1, a buffer tank 2 connected to the mixer 1 via a connecting pipe 5, and a control system 12. The volume of the buffer tank 2 is greater than the volume of the mixer 1. The mixer 1 is respectively connected to a first input pipe 3 and a second input pipe 4. The first input pipe 3 is used to input nitrogen into the mixer 1, and the second input pipe 4 is used to input air into the mixer 1. The buffer tank 2 is connected to an output pipe 9.

[0020] The filling oxygen-depleted device also includes a first oxygen meter 14 for monitoring the oxygen concentration in the mixer 1 and a second oxygen meter 15 for monitoring the oxygen concentration in the buffer tank 2. The first oxygen meter 14 and the second oxygen meter 15 are respectively electrically connected to the control system 12. The first oxygen meter 14 feeds back the oxygen concentration of the mixer 1 to the control system 12 in real time, and the second oxygen meter 15 feeds back the oxygen concentration of the buffer tank 2 to the control system 12 in real time.

[0021] The first input pipe 3 is provided with a first electric valve 16 and a first flow transmitter 10, respectively. The second input pipe 4 is provided with a second electric valve 17 and a second flow transmitter 11, respectively. The output pipe 9 is provided with a third electric valve 18 and a third flow transmitter 13, respectively. The first electric valve 16, the second electric valve 17, the third electric valve 18, the first flow transmitter 10, the second flow transmitter 11 and the third flow transmitter 13 are electrically connected to the control system 12, respectively. The first flow transmitter 10 and the second flow transmitter 11 are respectively used to detect the usage of nitrogen and air, and feed back the numerical values ​​to the control system 12, so that the control system 12 controls the opening angles of the first electric valve 16 and the second electric valve 17 to control the entry ratio of nitrogen and air and the output of the mixed gas. The output gas volume of the buffer tank 2 is controlled by the opening angle of the third electric valve 18. The third flow transmitter 13 is used to detect the output volume of the mixed gas in the buffer tank 2 and feed back the numerical value to the control system 12, so that the control system 12 can transmit instructions to the first electric valve 16 and the second electric valve 17 to change the opening amplitude of the first electric valve 16 and the second electric valve 17. The gas production of the mixer 1 produces the required mixed gas according to the usage.

[0022] The filling oxygen-depleted device further includes a first discharge pipe 6 connected to the mixer 1, an emptying pipe 7 connected to the buffer tank 2, and a second discharge pipe 8 connected to the buffer tank 2. The first discharge pipe 6 is provided with a fourth electric valve 19, the second discharge pipe 8 is provided with a fifth electric valve 20, and the emptying pipe 7 is provided with an emptying valve 21. The fourth electric valve 19 and the fifth electric valve 20 are respectively electrically connected to the control system 12. Specifically, the second discharge pipe 8 is provided at the top of the buffer tank 2, and the emptying pipe 7 is provided at the bottom of the buffer tank 2.

[0023] The buffer tank 2 is also provided with a safety valve 22 .

[0024] The control system 12 is provided with an alarm, which is respectively connected to the first oxygen meter 14 and the second oxygen meter 15 by signal. In actual use, the control system 12 pre-sets the first high alarm value of the excessively high oxygen concentration in the mixer 1 and the first low alarm value of the excessively low oxygen concentration, and the second high alarm value of the excessively high oxygen concentration in the buffer tank 2 and the second low alarm value, the concentration value of the second high alarm value is lower than the first high alarm value, and the concentration value of the second low alarm value is lower than the first low alarm value. The first oxygen meter 14 feeds back the monitored oxygen concentration in the mixer 1 to the control system 12. If it is monitored that the oxygen concentration in the mixer 1 exceeds the first high alarm value, the first high alarm of the alarm is triggered, and the first electric valve 16 and the second electric valve 16 are adjusted. The opening angle of the electric valve 17 is adjusted, and at the same time, the fourth electric valve 19 is opened to discharge the mixed gas in the unqualified stage in the mixer 1, and finally the oxygen concentration in the mixer 1 is reduced to the qualified range, while the mixed gas in the buffer tank 2 continues to be transported to the use process; if the oxygen concentration in the mixer 1 is monitored to be lower than the first-level low-high alarm value, the first-level low alarm of the alarm is triggered, and the opening angles of the first electric valve 16 and the second electric valve 17 are adjusted, and at the same time, the fourth electric valve 19 is opened to discharge the mixed gas in the unqualified stage in the mixer 1, and finally the oxygen concentration in the mixer 1 is increased to the qualified range, while the mixed gas in the buffer tank 2 continues to be transported to the use process. If the second oxygen content meter 15 monitors that the oxygen concentration in the buffer tank 2 exceeds the second-level high alarm value or is lower than the second-level low alarm value, the control system 12 controls the third electric valve 18 to close, opens the fifth electric valve 20, and discharges the unqualified gas in the buffer tank 2 to prevent the unqualified gas from entering the use process and causing danger.

[0025] When the filling oxygen-depleted device is used, nitrogen and air are respectively transported to the mixer 1 through the first input pipe 3 and the second input pipe 4 for mixing. The first oxygen content meter 14 detects the mixed gas in the mixer 1. By detecting the oxygen content, the first electric valve 16 and the second electric valve 17 change the nitrogen and air intake ratio in time. The first oxygen content meter 14 detects the qualified mixed gas in the mixer 1 and enters the buffer tank 2 as a reserve gas source. The second oxygen content meter 15 detects the mixed gas in the buffer tank 2. When the detection data does not meet the requirements, the opening angle of the first electric valve 16 and the second electric valve 17 is adjusted in time to control the intake volume and change the oxygen concentration of the mixed gas. The first flow transmitter 10, the second flow transmitter 11 and the third flow transmitter 13 respectively detect the gas consumption during gas production or use to change the amount of mixed gas generated. If unqualified mixed gas is detected in the buffer tank 2 before use, the control system 12 controls the third electric valve 18 to close, and the air intake at the rear end is stopped to prevent danger. At the same time, the fifth electric valve 20 is opened to discharge unqualified gas, and the mixer 1 end adjusts the mixing ratio within the set value range according to the oxygen concentration requirement in the buffer tank 2, and finally keeps the gas in the buffer tank 2 and the rear end in compliance with the set requirements.

[0026] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the utility model, and their purpose is to enable people familiar with this technology to understand the content of the utility model and implement it accordingly. They cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
