DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0021] The specific implementation of the utility model will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0022] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a natural gas release and recovery device includes a cyclone tube 1, a separation chamber 2 and a gas storage tank 3. Conical tubes 12 are provided at both ends of the cyclone tube 1, and a cyclone plate 13 is provided inside the cyclone tube 1. The narrow end of the conical tube 12 is integrally connected to the cyclone tube 1, and the wide end of the conical tube 12 is detachably connected to the release valve 11 and the separation chamber 2 respectively. When the natural gas enters the cyclone tube 1 from the conical tube 12, the gas flow rate increases, which is convenient for forming a high-speed vortex and strengthening the centrifugal effect; when the natural gas leaves the cyclone tube 1 from the conical tube 12, the flow rate is restored, and it is convenient to separate from the layered dust particles. The release valve 11 is connected to the pipeline network, the other end of the cyclone tube 1 is connected to the separation chamber 2, and the other side of the separation chamber 2 is connected to the gas storage tank 3. The released natural gas is released from the release valve 11, and the gas passes through the cyclone plate 13 to form a vortex, so that the dust particles contained in the natural gas are separated from the natural gas under the centrifugal effect. In the separation chamber 2, the dust particles are separated from the natural gas, and the natural gas after preliminary purification enters the gas storage tank 3. The detachable swirl tube 1 is easy to inspect and replace, and prevents the swirl tube 1 from having problems and delaying work time. Both ends of the swirl tube 1 are provided with a first flange 121, and the separation chamber 2 is provided with a second flange 212 that matches the first flange 121. The swirl tube 1 is fixedly connected to the relief valve 11 and the separation chamber 2 through the first flange 121.
[0023] The separation bin 2 includes a bin body 21 and a discharge pipe 22. The two opposite sides of the bin body 21 are provided with vents 211 corresponding to the swirl tube 1 and the gas tank 3, respectively. The vent 211 is provided with a second flange 212, and the gas tank 3 is provided with a third flange 311 matching the second flange 212. The separation bin 2 and the gas tank 3 are detachably connected, which is convenient for step-by-step maintenance of each component. When the natural gas vortexes inside the bin body 21, the solid particles are thrown out by the vortex and discharged from the separation bin 2 from the discharge pipe 22; the natural gas enters the gas tank 3. The bottom end of the discharge pipe 22 is provided with a hinged end cap 221, and the end cap 221 and the discharge pipe 22 are provided with a first buckle assembly 222 that cooperates with each other. When the first buckle assembly 222 is fastened and the end cap 221 is closed, the dust particles can be temporarily stored inside the discharge pipe for a period of time; when the first buckle assembly 222 is loosened and the end cap 221 is opened, the accumulated dust is discharged from the separation bin 2 from the end of the discharge pipe under the action of air pressure.
[0024] The gas storage tank 3 includes an air inlet pipe 31, a tank body 33 and an air outlet pipe 32. One end of the air inlet pipe 31 is connected to the tank body 33, and the other end extends into the interior of the separation bin 2, and is provided with a filter assembly. The air inlet pipe 31 is coaxial with the cyclone tube 1, so that dust particles move around the inner wall of the separation bin 2 and the discharge pipe 22, and the natural gas passes through the air inlet pipe 31 into the gas storage tank 3, and is filtered twice by the filter assembly, thereby improving the purity of the natural gas. The filter assembly includes a pressure ring 313 and a filter plate 35. The end of the air inlet pipe 31 is provided with a groove 312 that matches the filter plate 35. The pressure ring 313 is hinged with the groove 312, and the edges of the pressure ring 313 and the groove 312 are provided with a second buckle assembly 314 that matches each other. By locking or loosening the second buckle assembly 314, the opening and closing state of the pressure ring 313 is changed, so that the filter plate 35 can be easily replaced. The filter plate 35 includes a dust removal plate 351 and a drying plate 352. The dust removal plate 351 is made of loose porous material, which is convenient for adsorbing and filtering small particles in natural gas. The material of the drying plate 352 has excellent water absorption performance and can absorb moisture in natural gas. When the pressure ring 313 is locked by the second buckle assembly 314, the dust removal plate 351 is fitted with the pressure ring 313, and the dust removal plate 351 is fitted with the bottom surface of the groove 312. When the natural gas passes through the filter plate 35, it first contacts the dust removal plate 351 to filter out solid particles, and then passes through the drying plate 352 to absorb moisture in the natural gas. An outlet pipe 32 is provided at the bottom of the tank body 33, and a valve 321 is provided on the outlet pipe 32. The gas in the gas storage tank 3 is taken or temporarily stored through the outlet pipe 32. A barometer 331 and a buzzer 332 are provided on the gas storage tank 3. The barometer 331 monitors the pressure in the gas storage tank 3 in real time and is electrically connected to the buzzer 332. When the pressure in the gas storage tank 3 is too high, the buzzer 332 prompts the staff to discharge and use the natural gas in the gas storage tank 3.
[0025] The working principle of the specific embodiment of the utility model is as follows: the natural gas in the pipe network is released through the release valve 11, and the released natural gas passes through the vortex tube 1 and forms a vortex. Under the centrifugal action, the natural gas in the vortex state throws the dust particles to the inner wall of the vortex tube 1 to achieve the stratification of natural gas and solid particles. In the separation bin 2, the dust particles move along the inner wall of the separation bin 2 to the discharge pipe 22, and the natural gas passes through the air inlet pipe 31 and enters the gas storage tank 3.
