Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of liquid rocket booster pipeline filtration, and in particular to a high-pressure gas bidirectional filter. Background Art

[0002] The gas filter is a filtering device in the rocket gas booster system, which controls excess matter in the gas booster pipeline. The gas filter is often installed between the gas cylinder and the solenoid valve. By opening or closing the solenoid valve, the pressurized gas from the gas cylinder entering the solenoid valve is kept at a specified cleanliness level to prevent excess matter from clogging the solenoid valve, causing a jam and resulting in flight failure. However, existing gas filters that control excess matter in the gas circuit often use a single-layer filter structure. For conventional helium booster pipelines, the gas filter can withstand pressure, but when a large flow of nitrogen is used as the gas source for the booster pipeline, the gas filter is difficult to support, often causing the filter to collapse and tear.

[0003] In the patent with publication number CN201930658U, entitled "A low-temperature bidirectional impact-resistant filter", although the filter is designed as a sealed welded integrated structure to reduce the risk of external leakage, the filter cannot be inspected and replaced before loading the rocket and flying, resulting in extremely poor filter maintenance and usability. In the patent with publication number CN218608613U, entitled "A high-pressure gas filter", the detachable design of the filter element solves the problem of filter inspection and replacement, but the skeleton-free filter element is difficult to ensure the pressure-bearing capacity of the skeleton-free filter element during the filtering process of high-flow nitrogen as the gas source for the boost pipeline, which often causes the filter to collapse and tear.

[0004] Therefore, how to improve the pressure-bearing capacity of the filter in the large-flow booster pipeline and realize the inspection and replacement of the filter before rocket loading and flight is a technical problem that technical personnel in this field urgently need to solve.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, this application provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A high-pressure gas bidirectional filter comprises: a shell, a fixed cover, a filter screen and a skeleton; wherein the shell has a valve core cavity inside, a medium inlet at the lower end of the shell, the medium inlet is connected to the valve core cavity, and the upper end of the shell has an assembly port, the assembly port is connected to the valve core cavity; the fixed cover has a medium flow cavity inside, the upper end of the fixed cover has a medium outlet, the medium outlet is connected to the medium flow cavity, the lower end of the fixed cover has an open port, the open port is connected to the medium flow cavity, and the lower end of the fixed cover has a fixed boss with an outer circumferential surface concave inwardly; the skeleton comprises: a hollow cylinder and a conical baffle; the large end of the conical baffle is fixedly docked with the lower end of the hollow cylinder, the upper end of the hollow cylinder is plugged and fixed to the fixed boss, and the hollow cylinder has a plurality of ventilation holes that pass through the inside and outside, and the filter screen is wrapped and fixed to the outer circumferential surface of the hollow cylinder; the lower section of the fixed cover is inserted from the assembly port into the upper part of the valve core cavity, and is detachably connected to the shell, and a plurality of retaining rings and a plurality of sealing rings are provided between the lower section of the fixed cover and the inner wall of the upper part of the valve core cavity.

[0008] As described above, in the high-pressure gas two-way filter, preferably, the inner wall of the valve core cavity has an internal thread near the assembly port, and the outer peripheral surface of the fixed cover near the lower end has a fastening external thread, and the fastening external thread cooperates with the internal thread to achieve a detachable connection between the shell and the fixed cover.

[0009] In the high-pressure gas bidirectional filter as described above, preferably, the outer peripheral surface of the shell has a shell adjustable wrench fixing portion protruding outward, and the outer peripheral surface of the fixing cover has a fixing cover adjustable wrench fixing portion protruding outward.

[0010] As described above, in the high-pressure gas two-way filter, preferably, a shell lead sealing hole is provided on the shell adjustable wrench fixing part, and the boost pipeline at this end is lead-sealed and fixed by passing a steel wire through the shell lead sealing hole; a fixing cover lead sealing hole is provided on the fixing cover adjustable wrench fixing part, and the boost pipeline at this end is lead-sealed and fixed by passing a steel wire through the fixing cover lead sealing hole.

[0011] As described above, in the high-pressure gas bidirectional filter, preferably, the outer peripheral surface of the shell has a concave clamp fixing position.

[0012] In the high-pressure gas bidirectional filter as described above, preferably, there is a transition slope between the two ends of the clamp fixing position and the parts connected thereto.

[0013] In the high-pressure gas bidirectional filter as described above, preferably, the outer peripheral surface of the fixed cover has a plurality of sealing grooves, and the sealing grooves are located below the fastening external threads, and the retaining ring and the sealing ring are located in the sealing grooves.

[0014] In the high-pressure gas bidirectional filter as described above, preferably, the sealing ring is closer to the lower end of the fixed cover than the retaining ring.

[0017] Beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. When the booster pipeline is nitrogen or conventional gas, the gas property is a low dew point medium, and the gas flow rate is ≥1Kg / s, the filter is often blocked due to partial frost on the filter, resulting in an increase in the pressure difference before and after the filter. In the past, the filter element was not sufficient to withstand the gas impact under this pressure difference, which easily caused the filter to be flattened, damaged, etc. The hollow cylinder and conical baffle of the high-pressure gas two-way filter skeleton of the present application are designed as a whole, and a ventilation hole is designed on the hollow cylinder. The outer layer is welded by electron beam welding to weld the filter to the skeleton and the filter, skeleton and fixed cover to solve the problem that the filter has insufficient pressure bearing capacity and cannot withstand the impact of large flow media.

[0019] 2. The existing two-way filter must be easy to inspect and replace. In order to solve this problem, the present application uses multiple sealing rings and retaining rings to form a multiple sealing system. After sealing, the sealing cover is connected to the shell through a thread, which is convenient for disassembly, inspection and replacement.

[0020] 3. In order to be suitable for the boosting system under aerospace vibration levels and prevent the threaded connection of the high-pressure gas two-way filter and the connection between the high-pressure gas two-way filter and the boosting pipeline from falling off, the present application provides a shell lead sealing hole at the shell adjustable wrench fixing part, and a fixed cover lead sealing hole at the fixed cover adjustable wrench fixing part. After the high-pressure gas two-way filter is installed in the boosting pipeline, it is fixed with a 1mm fine steel wire for lead sealing, thereby providing protection for the boosting pipeline from loosening.
