Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipeline protection, in particular to a cathode protection device for a city gas pipeline. Background Art

[0002] Sacrificial anode protection (English name sacrificial anode) is also known as sacrificial anode protection method; it is a method of preventing metal corrosion by using the principle of the primary battery. The specific method is to use a metal with strong reducing properties as a protective electrode, connected to the protected metal to form a primary battery. The metal with strong reducing properties will be sacrificed and consumed as the negative electrode in the oxidation-reduction reaction, and the protected metal will be used as the positive electrode to avoid corrosion. This method consumes and sacrifices the metal as the anode (the negative electrode of the primary battery) to protect the cathode (the positive electrode of the primary battery) metal. In layman's terms, it uses the corrosion of the anode metal to protect the cathode metal and slow down the corrosion.

[0003] After the wiring is completed, the existing protection device uses a waterproof tape coil to protect the coil, but the winding of the waterproof tape is too time-consuming, and it needs to be completely opened during maintenance and repair, which is too troublesome. The waterproof tape is also limited by its material and cannot protect against possible impacts. The current better solution is to protect the coil with a hard shell, but the size of the hard shell often cannot be adjusted according to the size of the pipeline and needs to be replaced frequently. For this reason, we propose a cathodic protection device for urban gas pipelines. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide a cathodic protection device for urban gas pipelines.
