Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of monitoring instruments, in particular to a combustible gas leakage prevention detection and monitoring device. Background Art

[0002] Combustible gas is a state of combustible material, which refers to the gas that can be uniformly mixed with air (or oxygen) within a certain concentration range to form a premixed gas, which will explode when encountering a fire source, and releases a large amount of energy during the combustion process. Natural gas is a gaseous hydrocarbon produced by the long-term underground deposition of ancient biological remains, which is slowly transformed and metamorphosed and cracked. It is flammable and is mostly produced when crude oil is extracted in oil fields. Natural gas is stored in porous rock formations about 3000-4000 meters underground. The main component is methane, with a specific gravity of 0.65, which is lighter than air and has the characteristics of being colorless, odorless, and non-toxic. Natural gas companies all add odorants in accordance with government regulations for users to smell and identify. According to the state of natural gas reserves, it is divided into three types: tectonic natural gas, water-soluble natural gas, and coal mine natural gas. Tectonic natural gas can be divided into wet natural gas produced with crude oil and dry natural gas without liquid components. If there is a natural gas leak in your home, it is very dangerous, because too much methane diffuses in the air and can cause suffocation. It can also cause explosions of varying sizes when encountering fire.

[0003] Combustible gas detectors are generally used in harsh environments. They detect combustible gas through built-in combustible gas sensors. However, after long-term use of the equipment, dust and impurities in the air will gradually block the air inlet of the detector and affect the operation of the sensor. It needs to be cleaned regularly. Therefore, a combustible gas leak detection and monitoring device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 , a combustible gas leakage detection and monitoring device, comprising a housing 1, such as Figure 3 As shown, the shell 1 is cylindrical, and a gas sensor 2 is arranged in the shell. The gas sensor 2 is electrically connected to a power supply and a detection circuit board. The power supply plays a power supply role, and can be powered by a battery or an external power supply. After the gas sensor 2 detects the combustible gas, an alarm can be issued through the detection circuit board to realize the combustible gas monitoring function. An air inlet 3 is penetrated through the side wall of the shell 1, and external gas enters the shell 1 through the air inlet 3. An annular filter 4 is rotatably arranged inside the shell 1, and the inner circumferential surface of the air inlet 3 is fixedly connected to a connecting port 5 in contact with the annular filter 4, as shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown, the connection port 5 is fitted with the annular filter 4 to ensure that external gas can enter the shell 1 through the annular filter 4. The gas sensor 2 detects the gas, and the annular filter 4 rotates. The annular filter 4 corresponding to the air inlet 3 can also rotate to prevent the gas from entering the shell through one filter for a long time, causing dust and impurities in the air to block the filter.

[0026] Furthermore, the annular filter screen 4 is rotatably arranged inside the housing 1 through a connecting frame, such as Figure 2 As shown, the connecting frame includes a rotating plate 6, which is a circular plate. The rotating plate 6 is coaxially arranged with the shell 1. The rotating plate 6 is rotatably arranged on the inner surface of the shell 1. A rotating ring 7 is arranged on one side of the rotating plate 6. The rotating ring 7 is coaxially arranged with the rotating plate 6. A plurality of connecting columns 8 are fixedly connected between the rotating plate 6 and the rotating ring 7. The annular filter 4 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting frame, thereby supporting the annular filter 4 and driving the annular filter 4 to rotate inside the shell 1.

[0027] Furthermore, the inner circumferential surface of the shell 1 is provided with a cleaning mechanism that fits with the annular filter 4. When the annular filter 4 rotates inside the shell 1, it corresponds to the cleaning mechanism, so that the cleaning mechanism can clean the outside of the annular filter 4, allowing the device to be used for a long time.

[0028] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning roller 9, such as Figure 3 As shown, the axis of the cleaning roller 9 is arranged to extend in the same direction as the axis of the housing 1. Figure 4 As shown, the inner circumferential surface of the shell 1 is provided with a groove 10, and the cleaning roller 9 is rotatably arranged on the inner surface of the groove 10. When the annular filter 4 rotates, the cleaning roller 9 contacts and rotates with the annular filter 4, and the cleaning effect is good. Felt material can be used on the surface of the cleaning roller 9, which has a better cleaning effect on dust and impurities.

[0029] Further, the outer part of the housing 1 is provided with a transmission wheel 11, and the transmission wheel 11 is coaxially arranged with the cleaning roller 9, and the outer part of the housing 1 is provided with a rotating cover 12. Figure 3 As shown, the inner circumference of the rotating cover 12 is in contact with the transmission wheel 11, and the rotating cover 12 is coaxially connected to the rotating plate 6. When the connecting frame rotates, the rotating plate 6 drives the rotating cover 12 to rotate synchronously. Since the inner circumference of the rotating cover 12 is in contact with the transmission wheel 11, the transmission wheel 11 is driven to rotate. The cleaning roller 9 is driven by the transmission wheel 11 to rotate to clean the surface of the annular filter 4. In order to ensure the transmission effect, teeth can be set on the inner circumference of the rotating cover 12, and external teeth meshing with the transmission wheel 11 can be set on the outer circumference of the transmission wheel 11.

[0030] Furthermore, the inner circumferential surface of the rotating ring 7 is provided with internal teeth, and the inner surface of the shell 1 is fixedly connected to a driving motor 14 through a bracket 13. The output shaft of the driving motor 14 is connected to a gear 15 meshing with the internal teeth. The driving motor 14 drives the rotating ring 7 to rotate, thereby driving the annular filter 4 to rotate.

[0031] Furthermore, the outer surface of the shell 1 is provided with a strip groove 16 connected to the groove 10, so that when the cleaning roller 9 rotates to clean the dust on the surface of the annular filter 4, the dust can be discharged from the strip groove 16, preventing the dust from accumulating inside the device and affecting the rotation of the cleaning roller 9.

[0032] Working principle: When the utility model is used, the driving motor 14 drives the gear 15 to rotate, and drives the rotating ring 7 to rotate through the internal teeth. The rotating ring 7 drives the rotating plate 6 to rotate synchronously through the connecting column 8, and drives the annular filter 4 to rotate. External gas enters the shell 1 through the annular filter 4 at the air inlet 3 and contacts the gas sensor 2. The gas sensor 2 sends an alarm through the circuit board. The rotating plate 6 can drive the rotating cover 12 to rotate synchronously, and drive the transmission wheel 11 to rotate synchronously. The cleaning roller 9 is driven by the transmission wheel 11 to rotate, and the surface of the annular filter 4 is cleaned.

[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
