Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gas storage tanks, in particular to a sealed gas storage tank. Background Art

[0002] A gas storage tank is a device used to store and transport gas. Early gas storage tanks were mainly simple steel storage tanks. This method has a simple structure and low cost, but low storage efficiency and certain safety hazards. The liquefied natural gas storage tanks currently used have gas valves that can supply or stop gas to the gas-using device after the gas supply valve is connected to the gas-using device by switching the valve.

[0003] However, the connection between the gas transmission valve and the gas-using device is directly exposed to the environment. During long-term use, the internal sealing plug is prone to aging, resulting in reduced sealing of the connection, which in turn makes natural gas leakage prone. The natural gas in the storage tank will leak directly into the environment, posing a major safety hazard.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a sealed gas storage tank to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a sealed gas storage tank to solve the problem that the internal sealing plug is prone to aging during long-term use, resulting in reduced sealing at the connection, which in turn easily causes natural gas leakage. The natural gas in the tank will directly leak into the environment, posing a great safety hazard.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a sealed gas storage tank, comprising a gas storage tank body, a sealing valve fixedly connected to the middle position of the upper end of the gas storage tank body, an adjusting hand wheel is arranged on the upper end of the sealing valve, a first connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the front end of the sealing valve, a second connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the front end of the first connecting pipe, a sealing mechanism is arranged on the outer sides of the first connecting pipe and the second connecting pipe, the sealing mechanism comprises a first connecting shell, a sealing groove, a second connecting shell, a third connecting shell and a sealing ring, the rear end of the first connecting shell is fixedly connected to the sealing valve, the second connecting shell is sleeved on the surface of the second connecting pipe, and a monitoring module is fixedly connected to the surface of the second connecting shell.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the first connecting shell and the second connecting shell are arranged on the outside of the connection between the first connecting pipe and the second connecting pipe, and the connection between the first connecting pipe and the second connecting pipe is sealed to prevent natural gas from leaking into the external air. At the same time, the monitoring module continuously monitors the interior of the connecting shell to detect gas leakage in time.

[0008] Optionally, the third connecting shell is fixedly connected to the rear end of the second connecting shell, a positioning clamp ring is fixedly connected to the rear end of the third connecting shell, and the sealing ring is fixedly connected to the rear end of the positioning clamp ring.

[0009] Optionally, the sealing groove is provided at the front end of the first connecting shell, and the sealing ring is fixedly engaged with the sealing groove.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing ring is clamped in the sealing groove, thereby improving the sealing performance of the connection between the first connecting shell and the third connecting shell.

[0011] Optionally, a first locking block is slidably connected to the surface of the third connecting shell.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the first locking block slides back and forth on the surface of the third connecting shell, and the positioning clamp ring limits the position of the first locking block.

[0013] Optionally, a thread groove is provided on the surface of the first connecting shell near the front side, and the rear end of the first locking block is threadedly connected to the thread groove.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, after the third connecting shell is clamped with the first connecting shell, the first locking block is threadedly connected with the thread groove to lock and fix the first connecting shell and the third connecting shell.

[0015] Optionally, the front end of the second connecting shell is fixedly connected to the first connecting sleeve, the front end of the first connecting sleeve is fixedly connected to the second connecting sleeve, and the surface of the second connecting sleeve is threadedly connected to the second locking block.

[0016] Optionally, a sealing sleeve is fixedly connected to the front end of the second connecting sleeve, and the sealing sleeve, the first connecting sleeve and the second connecting sleeve are all sleeved on the surface of the second connecting pipe, and the front end thickness of the sealing sleeve is greater than the rear end thickness.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the second locking block is twisted toward the front side of the surface of the second connecting sleeve. When the second locking block slides toward the front side, its front end squeezes the sealing sleeve, so that the sealing sleeve fits tightly against the surface of the second connecting pipe, thereby further improving the sealing performance inside the connecting shell.

[0018] Optionally, a lifting rod is fixedly connected to the outer side of the upper end of the gas storage tank body.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting rod can facilitate the movement of the gas storage tank body.

[0020] In the above technical solution, the technical effects and advantages provided by the utility model are:

[0021] 1. The utility model locks the third connection shell and the first connection shell with the sealing ring by clamping them inside the sealing groove, and rotates the first locking block to lock and fix the connection between the first connection pipe and the second connection pipe inside the connection shell, thereby improving the sealing performance of the valve of the gas storage tank body, preventing natural gas from leaking to the outside, and improving the safety of natural gas use. It solves the problem that the sealing performance of the connection is reduced, and then the natural gas leaks easily, and the natural gas in the storage tank will directly leak into the environment, which poses a great safety hazard;

[0022] 2. The utility model continuously monitors the interior of the connection shell through the monitoring module. When natural gas is detected inside the connection shell, an alarm will be issued to remind the user to perform maintenance in time, thereby further improving the safety of natural gas use.
