[0012] 2. The materials used in this utility model are all common materials, and the construction and installation are simple and convenient, and the cost is also low. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0013] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the utility model, the preferred implementation scheme of the utility model is described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. However, it should be understood that the drawings are only used for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as a limitation on this patent. In order to better illustrate this embodiment, some parts of the drawings may be omitted, enlarged or reduced, and do not represent the size of the actual product. For those skilled in the art, it is understandable that some well-known structures and their descriptions in the drawings may be omitted. The positional relationship described in the drawings is only used for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as a limitation on this patent.
[0015] Embodiment 1:
[0016] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a liquefied gas collection device for a reciprocating piston compressor, comprising a nitrogen pipeline 1, nitrogen is introduced into the nitrogen pipeline 1, one end of the nitrogen pipeline 1 is connected to a flare gas pipeline, a pressure gauge 11, a first Y-type filter 12, a first stop valve 13, a venturi tube 14 and a second stop valve 15 are sequentially arranged on the nitrogen pipeline 1, and a leaking liquefied gas structure is connected to the inlet of the venturi tube 14.
[0017] Embodiment 2:
[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a liquefied gas collection device for a reciprocating piston compressor, comprising a nitrogen pipeline 1, nitrogen is introduced into the nitrogen pipeline 1, one end of the nitrogen pipeline 1 is connected to a flare gas pipeline, a pressure gauge 11, a first Y-type filter 12, a first stop valve 13, a venturi tube 14 and a second stop valve 15 are sequentially arranged on the nitrogen pipeline 1, and a leaking liquefied gas structure is connected to the inlet of the venturi tube 14.
[0019] The leaking liquefied gas structure includes a compressor 21, a third stop valve 22, a vacuum gauge 23, a second Y-type filter 24 and a fourth stop valve 25 which are sequentially connected through a pipeline. The fourth stop valve 25 is connected to the inlet of the venturi tube 14 through a pipeline.
[0020] Because there is a slight positive pressure in the flare pipeline, and the pressure will be higher during maintenance or fault conditions, the leaked gas from compressor 21 cannot be directly connected to the flare pipeline network. Otherwise, the liquefied gas in the flare pipeline network will flow back to compressor 21 due to the high pressure of the pipeline network, making it impossible for the leaked gas from compressor 21 to be discharged normally.
[0021] Further, in another embodiment, the number of the leaking liquefied gas structures is three groups.
[0022] The working principle of one embodiment of the utility model is as follows:
[0023] A liquefied gas collection device for a reciprocating piston compressor uses nitrogen as a vacuum generating gas source, leads the leaked gas to the negative pressure port of the venturi tube 14 through a pipeline, then leads the outlet of the venturi tube 14 to the flare gas pipeline, and finally discharges it to the flare for incineration. Since the nitrogen pressure is 7-9 bar, the flare pipe network pressure is much lower than the nitrogen pressure, and will not cause backflow.
[0024] According to the description and drawings of the present invention, those skilled in the art can easily manufacture or use the liquefied gas collecting device for the reciprocating piston compressor of the present invention, and can produce the positive effects recorded in the present invention.
