Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of gas cylinder heating, in particular to a light and quick-detachable sulfur hexafluoride gas cylinder heating device. Background Art

[0002] Sulfur hexafluoride is widely used in power equipment due to its excellent physical and chemical properties. However, it is one of the six greenhouse gases specified in the Kyoto Protocol. Directly discharging sulfur hexafluoride waste gas into the atmosphere will aggravate the greenhouse effect and damage the ecological environment. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the recovery and treatment of sulfur hexafluoride waste gas.

[0003] The sulfur hexafluoride gas recovery and regeneration process is as follows: first, the gas in the gas cylinder to be treated is extracted through the recovery inlet, and then the moisture in the recovered gas is removed through the purification tank. After the gas cylinder to be treated is evacuated to a vacuum, the purified gas that has passed the test can be refilled into the cylinder.

[0004] During the gas regeneration pumping and switchgear live gas replenishment process, the internal pressure of the cylinder drops rapidly, and the internal sulfur hexafluoride also vaporizes rapidly (from liquid to gas) to make up for the pressure loss, continuously absorbing heat, causing the temperature of the lower layer of liquid sulfur hexafluoride in the cylinder to drop sharply, and the water vapor in the air condenses into water droplets when it is cold, causing frost on the lower 1 / 5 of the cylinder. After the cylinder is frosted, the temperature of the internal liquid sulfur hexafluoride drops below 0°C. Since the saturated vapor pressure of liquefied gas is proportional to the temperature, the lower the temperature, the lower the saturated vapor pressure. The pressure at the outlet of the cylinder angle valve is determined by the saturated vapor pressure. Therefore, after the cylinder is frosted, the outlet pressure is significantly reduced, which seriously affects the pumping rate. When replenishing the gas, the remaining 20% ​​of the gas cannot be used, resulting in waste.

[0005] In view of the phenomenon of frost condensation caused by sudden temperature drop during the gasification of sulfur hexafluoride, the sulfur hexafluoride cylinder is usually heated to alleviate the problem. The utility model patent with patent number 201720541939.8 discloses a heating device for sulfur hexafluoride cylinders, including a heat preservation pad, a heating cable, a power cord, a plug and a rope. The left and right ends of the heat preservation pad are respectively provided with matching fasteners that can connect the left and right ends of the heat preservation pad together. The front side of the heat preservation pad is provided with a heating cable arranged in a serpentine shape, and ropes are arranged at intervals on the heating cable to fix it to the heat preservation pad at the corresponding position.

[0006] According to the storage requirements of sulfur hexafluoride gas cylinders: the storage temperature of sulfur hexafluoride gas cylinders should be controlled between -40℃ and 50℃. Too high or too low temperature may cause abnormal changes in the pressure in the gas cylinder, thereby affecting the stability and safety of the gas. Therefore, the temperature control of the gas cylinder is particularly important. However, the above patented technology cannot monitor the heating temperature, and cannot detect abnormal heating of the heating cable in time, nor does it have corresponding alarm and solution measures.

[0025] like Figure 1 The light and quick-detachable sulfur hexafluoride cylinder heating device shown comprises a heat preservation pad 1 and a heating belt 2 and a temperature sensor 5 arranged on the side of the heat preservation pad 1 facing the cylinder; the heating belt 2 is arranged on the heat preservation pad 1 in a serpentine shape; one end of the heat preservation pad 1 is provided with at least two first flexible straps 3 arranged at intervals, and the other end of the heat preservation pad 1 is provided with at least two second flexible straps 6 arranged at intervals; the first flexible strap 3 is provided with a first self-adhesive portion 32 on the side facing the second flexible strap 6, and the second flexible strap 6 is provided with a second self-adhesive portion 61 matching the first self-adhesive portion 32; an expansion mechanism is provided between the first flexible strap 3 and the second flexible strap 6 for separating the first flexible strap 3 from the second flexible strap 6 by expansion, the input end of the expansion mechanism is connected to the output end of the controller 7, and the input end of the controller 7 is connected to the output end of the temperature sensor.

[0026] When the gas cylinder needs to be heated, the front side of the thermal insulation pad 1 (the side with the heating belt 2 and the temperature sensor) is wrapped around the outside of the part to be heated of the gas cylinder, and then the first self-adhesive portion 32 of the first flexible strap 3 is bonded together with the second self-adhesive portion 61 of the second flexible strap 6, and finally the power is turned on through the plug 23, and the thermostat 22 is turned on to control the heating belt 2 for heating; the heating device has good adhesion to the gas cylinder and the heating is more uniform, and the thermal insulation pad 1 can also prevent the loss of heat energy by setting up the temperature sensor; the temperature of the heated gas cylinder can be monitored in real time by setting up the temperature sensor, so as to timely detect abnormal heating conditions; by setting up an expansion mechanism that can separate the first flexible strap 3 from the second flexible strap 6 by expansion, the first flexible strap 3 and the second flexible strap 6 can be automatically separated when the temperature of the gas cylinder exceeds a threshold value, so that the thermal insulation pad 1 loses support and is separated from the gas cylinder, preventing the heating device from continuing to heat. Based on the provisions in the storage requirements of sulfur hexafluoride gas cylinders: the storage temperature of sulfur hexafluoride gas cylinders should be controlled between -40°C and 50°C. Too high or too low a temperature may cause abnormal changes in the pressure in the gas cylinder, thereby affecting the stability and safety of the gas. According to the actual temperature changes of the gas cylinder during the sulfur hexafluoride gas regeneration work, it is finally determined through research and analysis that the gas cylinder temperature needs to be maintained within the range of 20-45 degrees Celsius. When the gas cylinder temperature exceeds 45 degrees Celsius, the expansion mechanism is controlled to expand and separate the first flexible strap 3 and the second flexible strap 6.

[0027] According to one embodiment of the present application, a first through hole is provided in the middle of the first self-adhesive portion 32; an airbag mounting groove 31 is provided on the first flexible strap 3, which protrudes toward a side away from the first self-adhesive portion 32, and the opening of the airbag mounting groove is aligned with the first through hole; the expansion mechanism includes an inflatable airbag 4, an inflating unit, and a controller 7, the inflatable airbag 4 is installed in the airbag mounting groove 31, the inflating unit is installed in the inflatable airbag 4 for inflating the inflatable airbag 4, and the output end of the controller 7 is electrically connected to the input end of the inflating unit.

The gas expansion agent can be sodium nitride. When the igniter is ignited, the sodium nitride is decomposed into elemental sodium and nitrogen when the temperature is higher than 87°C by instantaneous rapid heating, and the airbag is inflated to a full state.

After the relay J is closed, the drive circuit works, and the electrical signal of the second power supply of the transformer T is boosted to drive the igniter to ignite.

[0030] According to one embodiment of the present application, the device further includes an alarm connected to the output end of the controller 7.

When the temperature exceeds a second threshold value (which can be set to 45 degrees Celsius), the expansion mechanism is activated.

[0031] According to an embodiment of the present application, the device further comprises a display connected to the output end of the controller 7. During use, the temperature detected by the sensor can be displayed in real time through the display.

[0032] According to an embodiment of the present application, the heating belt 2 is a glass fiber heating belt 2. The glass fiber heating belt 2 heats more evenly, is soft and bendable, and can ensure the fit with the gas cylinder, making the heating more even.
