Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of high-pressure container monitoring, and relates to a device for monitoring the safe operation state of a high-pressure container in a hydropower station. Background Art

[0002] In the operation of hydropower stations, high-pressure oil and gas system equipment is widely used and indispensable. The normal working pressure of the high-pressure containers of these equipment can usually reach 6~10MPa. It is inevitable that the pressure of the high-pressure container will be reduced due to air leakage, oil leakage and other reasons. There are even cases of mistaken removal of unrelieved equipment in the wrong interval, and there is no automatic anti-disassembly locking device for important pressure-bearing bolts. The intrinsic safety of the equipment needs to be improved urgently. At present, the operation monitoring of high-pressure containers in the high-pressure oil and gas systems of hydropower stations is mainly achieved by a single signal point of the pressure sensor. It can only monitor the pressure in the high-pressure container, cannot identify the current operation mode of the high-pressure container, and cannot independently judge whether the operation status of the high-pressure container is normal. The erroneous signal of a single pressure sensor failure will also cause the staff to misjudge the status of the equipment. Summary of the invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a device for monitoring the safe operation status of a high-pressure container of a hydropower station, which can autonomously identify the current operation status of the high-pressure container, eliminate potential problems, and improve the safe operation of equipment in the hydropower station.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a device for monitoring the safe operation status of a high-pressure container of a hydropower station, which includes an integrated valve, an outlet isolation valve, a pressure transmitter, a safety valve, an inlet isolation valve, an anti-dismantling device and a maintenance valve arranged on the pressure tank; the integrated valve, the outlet isolation valve, the pressure transmitter, the safety valve, the inlet isolation valve and the maintenance valve are all provided with signal sensors; the signal sensor is electrically connected to the service terminal.

[0005] The integrated valve is located at the bottom of the pressure tank; the integrated valve comprises a sewage discharge valve, a sewage discharge solenoid valve and a sewage discharge bypass valve which are interconnected.

[0006] The safety valve is arranged on the top of the pressure tank.

[0007] The anti-disassembly device is an electromagnetic lock, which is electrically connected to the service terminal.

[0008] The main beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0009] Autonomously identify the current operating status of the high-pressure container and determine whether the valve position of the high-pressure container is correct under the current operating mode, including but not limited to the high-pressure inlet and outlet isolation valves being mistakenly closed in the operating mode and the maintenance valve being mistakenly closed in the maintenance mode.

[0010] Determine whether the high-pressure container is leaking gas or liquid by combining the "operation / maintenance" mode of the high-pressure container and the pressure inside the container.

[0011] The server terminal has the function of detecting whether there are personnel around the pressure vessel for a long time. It can be judged that someone is working there for a long time, and an alarm will be issued in time to remind "No work is allowed under pressure" when the equipment is not under maintenance.

[0012] Automatic locking and unlocking prevents accidental removal or misoperation of pressurized equipment due to inadequate monitoring, improper operation, or mistaken entry into intervals, thus improving the inherent safety of the equipment.

[0013] The service terminal has a display function that can visually display the operating status of the high-pressure container, issue an intelligent alarm and make voice broadcasts to remind staff to check and handle in time, thereby improving the operating stability and safety and reliability of the hydropower station equipment.

[0018] In a preferred solution, the integrated valve 2 is located at the bottom of the pressure tank 1; the integrated valve 2 includes a sewage valve, a sewage solenoid valve and a sewage bypass valve which are interconnected.

[0019] In a preferred solution, the safety valve 5 is arranged on the top of the pressure tank 1 .

[0020] In a preferred solution, the anti-disassembly device 7 is an electromagnetic lock, and the electromagnetic lock is electrically connected to the service terminal 10 .

[0021] Embodiment 1,

[0022] By manually setting the "operation / maintenance" mode on the service terminal 10, the relevant valve status and pressure signals of the high-pressure container in the high-pressure oil and gas system are collected, and after logical operation, the current operation status of the high-pressure container is automatically identified, and the current position of each valve is determined to be correct, whether the high-pressure container is operating normally, and whether the high-pressure container can be disassembled for maintenance.

[0023] The identification results are displayed on the service terminal. If there is any abnormal situation, an intelligent alarm signal will be issued in time and a voice broadcast will be made. The precautions in the abnormal situation will be displayed to remind the staff to check and deal with it in time, eliminate potential problems, and improve the inherent safety, operational stability and safety reliability of the hydropower station equipment.

[0024] Embodiment 2,

[0025] Autonomously identify the following states:

[0026] 1. "Operation" state conditions: the pressure value in the pressure vessel is within the rated range, the inlet isolation valve is in the fully open position, the outlet isolation valve is in the fully open position, the sewage bypass valve is in the fully closed position, the sewage valve is in the fully open position, the inspection valve is in the fully closed position, and the safety valve is not actuated; the anti-dismantling device 7 is automatically locked.

[0027] 2. "Pressure relief" state conditions: the inlet isolation valve is in the fully closed position, the outlet isolation valve is in the fully closed position, the inspection valve is in the fully open position, the internal pressure is lower than the rated pressure and greater than 0; the anti-dismantling device 7 is automatically locked.

[0028] 3. “Maintenance” state conditions: the inlet isolation valve is in the fully closed position, the outlet isolation valve is in the fully closed position, the maintenance valve is in the fully open position, and the internal pressure is 0; the anti-dismantling device 7 is automatically unlocked.

[0029] 4. “Manual sewage discharge” state conditions: the pressure value in the pressure vessel is within the rated range, the inlet isolation valve is in the fully open position, the outlet isolation valve is in the fully open position, the sewage bypass valve is in the fully open position, the sewage valve is in the fully open position, the sewage solenoid valve is not opened, the inspection valve is in the fully closed position, and the safety valve is not actuated; the anti-dismantling device 7 is automatically locked.
