Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipeline monitoring, in particular to a pipeline network monitoring and control system. Background Art
[0002] Pipeline transportation is an economical and important form of transmission. However, due to climate and environmental factors or other human factors, the safe and stable operation of the pipeline is affected, resulting in leakage accidents in natural gas transmission pipelines from time to time, which in turn causes fire accidents. Therefore, the safety protection and leakage monitoring of natural gas transmission pipelines have become issues that cannot be ignored.
[0003] In order to monitor pipeline leakage, the existing technology generally installs a monitoring device at a certain point in the pipeline, but this method is only suitable for use in shorter pipelines. When the pipeline is long, if a certain section of the pipeline may have a local blockage caused by foreign matter, sediment or hydrate, etc., gas will accumulate in this section of the pipeline and the pressure will increase. At the same time, local leakage of the pipeline may also cause the pressure in this section of the pipeline to rise, because the gas flow around the leakage point is hindered and the pressure increases; if the gas source supply upstream of this section of the pipeline is insufficient, or there are problems such as blockage and leakage in the upstream pipeline, the gas flow in this section of the pipeline may decrease and the pressure may decrease.

Therefore, the safety protection and leakage monitoring of natural gas transmission pipelines have become issues that cannot be ignored.
[0045] In order to monitor pipeline leakage, the existing technology generally installs a monitoring device at a certain point in the pipeline, but this method is only suitable for use in shorter pipelines. When the pipeline is long, if a certain section of the pipeline may have a local blockage caused by foreign matter, sediment or hydrate, etc., gas will accumulate in this section of the pipeline and the pressure will increase.

The user may operate the corresponding APP on the handheld terminal so that the handheld terminal receives the pressure data transmitted from the wireless communication module 30 via the 4G / 5G network. For the user, the gas pressure of the natural gas pipeline can be remotely monitored.
[0056] In this embodiment, optionally, the position positioning module may adopt one of a GPS positioning module, a Beidou module, and a GLONASS module.
[0057] In the present embodiment, specifically, the technical solution of the present utility model detects the air pressure in the natural gas pipeline by using the pressure sensor circuit 10, and outputs the corresponding pressure detection signal to the main control circuit 20, so that the main control circuit 20 judges the size of the air pressure value.

[0058] refer to Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present utility model, the main control circuit 20 includes:
[0059] A first comparator circuit 21, wherein the in-phase end of the first comparator circuit 21 is electrically connected to the output end of the pressure sensor circuit 10, the inverting end of the first comparator circuit 21 is connected to the upper threshold signal, and the output end of the first comparator circuit 21 is electrically connected to the communication module 30, the position positioning module 40 and the alarm module 50 respectively.

[0061] In this embodiment, the first comparator circuit 21 and the second comparator circuit 22 are composed of at least one comparator. The first comparator circuit 21 is used to compare the voltage of the pressure detection signal with the voltage of the upper threshold signal. If the pressure detection signal is greater than the upper threshold signal, it means that the gas pressure in a certain section of the natural gas pipeline is too high. The first comparator circuit 21 outputs a corresponding control signal (high level) to control the position positioning module 40 and the alarm module 50 to work; the second comparator circuit 22 is used to compare the voltage of the pressure detection signal with the voltage of the lower threshold signal. If the pressure detection signal is less than the lower preset threshold, it means that the gas pressure in a certain section of the natural gas pipeline is insufficient. The second comparator circuit 22 outputs a corresponding control signal (high level) to control the position positioning module 40 and the alarm module 50 to work; the high level signal output by the first comparator circuit 21 or the second comparator circuit 22 is transmitted to the external terminal through the communication module 30. The external terminal can be set to issue an alarm when receiving the high level signal, so as to promptly remind the user that the gas pressure of the natural gas pipeline is abnormal. With such a configuration, the main control circuit 20 only needs to use a comparator to compare the gas pressure of the natural gas pipeline, without the need to use a control chip such as an MCU, thereby effectively reducing the material cost of the pipeline monitoring equipment and eliminating the need for software code writing, thereby accelerating the research and development progress.

The filter circuit 12 filters the signal output by the voltage sensor to remove noise and unnecessary frequency components, thereby obtaining a smoother and more stable signal. In this way, the stability and smoothness of the pressure detection signal can prevent the noise in the signal from interfering with the first comparator U2 or the second comparator U4.
[0067] refer to Figure 4 In one embodiment of the present utility model, the main control circuit 20 includes:

[0069] The main controller 24 is electrically connected to the position positioning module 40 and the alarm module 50 respectively.
[0070] In this embodiment, the analog-to-digital converter 23 is used to convert the pressure detection signal into corresponding pressure detection data. The main controller 24 can obtain the corresponding pressure value according to the pressure detection data, and compare the pressure value with the preset upper limit threshold and the preset lower limit threshold respectively. When the pressure value is greater than the preset upper limit threshold or lower than the preset lower limit threshold, the main controller 24 outputs the corresponding control signal to control the position positioning module 40 and the alarm module 50 to work, and the main controller 24 can transmit the corresponding pressure value to the external terminal through the communication module 30. With this arrangement, the user can obtain the gas pressure data of the natural gas pipeline in real time through the pipeline monitoring equipment, thereby remotely monitoring the gas pressure data of the natural gas pipeline in real time.

[0076] In this embodiment, the pressure sensor 11 can detect the gas pressure of the natural gas pipeline and output a corresponding pressure detection signal. The main function of the third filter circuit 12 is to remove noise and interference in the pressure detection signal to ensure that the signal received by the subsequent amplifier circuit 13 and the main control circuit 20 is clear and accurate. The amplifier circuit 13 amplifies the filtered signal so that the main control circuit 20 can more easily detect the voltage change.

[0080] In this embodiment, excessive humidity in the natural gas pipeline may cause corrosion of the inner wall of the pipeline, thereby affecting the safety and service life of the pipeline. When the humidity in the pipeline exceeds the preset humidity value, the main control circuit 20 controls the position positioning module 40 and the alarm module 50 to work, thereby prompting the user that the humidity of the corresponding pipeline is abnormal, or that a corresponding section of the pipeline is abnormal; excessive temperature may cause a large change in the stress of the pipeline material, thereby accelerating the corrosion process. When the temperature exceeds the preset temperature value, the main control circuit 20 controls the position positioning module 40 and the alarm module 50 to work, thereby prompting the user that the temperature of the corresponding pipeline is abnormal, or that a corresponding section of the pipeline is abnormal.

[0083] In this embodiment, multiple pipeline monitoring devices are respectively applied to multiple sections of the natural gas pipeline. When the air pressure in one or more sections of the natural gas pipeline is too high, the main control circuit 20 controls the corresponding inflation valve to close to prevent the already excessive air pressure from continuing to increase, and controls the corresponding deflation valve to open, so as to reduce the air pressure value of the abnormal section or sections of the pipeline.

[0086] When the concentration detection signal is greater than a preset concentration value, the main control circuit 20 controls the exhaust device 80, the position positioning module 40 and the alarm module 50 to operate respectively.
[0087] In this embodiment, if the gas pressure of the natural gas pipeline is too high, the pipeline may rupture, causing natural gas leakage. The natural gas concentration detection module 70 is used to detect the concentration of natural gas in the environment. When the natural gas concentration is too high, the main control circuit 20 controls the position positioning module 40 and the alarm module 50 to work, so as to prompt the user of the specific location of the natural gas leakage, greatly shortening the emergency response time and improving the efficiency of accident handling. When the natural gas concentration is too high, the main control circuit 20 also controls the exhaust device 80 to work, so as to discharge the natural gas in the room, which helps to reduce the natural gas concentration in the room and reduce the harm that may be caused by the leakage accident.
