Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sampling devices, and particularly relates to a mobile airtight sampling device. Background Art

[0002] At present, the production of caustic soda in the chlor-alkali industry mainly adopts the ion-exchange membrane method to electrolyze brine to produce caustic soda, and at the same time, two gases, chlorine and hydrogen, are generated.

[0003] In order to strictly control the indicators and ensure the safe and stable operation of the production system, on-site manual sampling is generally used to analyze the purity, impurity components and content of the generated chlorine gas. Chlorine is a highly toxic hazardous chemical and has a fatal destructive effect on humans and the environment.

[0004] In the prior art, the sampling method for chlorine gas in the electrolytic cell is to open the sampling valve and introduce the sample through a hose. Since the hose has elasticity, there is a risk of chlorine gas leakage at the connection between the valve and the hose. After sampling, the waste chlorine gas enters the waste gas absorption system through the medium outlet. It is necessary to weld an opening in the original caustic soda waste gas pipeline entering the waste gas treatment device, increasing the sealing points and the possibility of chlorine gas leakage. The overflow of chlorine gas has a greater impact on the sampling operators and the environment, is not conducive to safe production, and does not meet the environmental protection requirements. Moreover, in the prior art, each electrolytic cell is equipped with a fixed airtight sampling device to conduct airtight sampling of the anode discharge chlorine gas of each electrolytic cell respectively. The investment in equipment and supporting devices is large, the cost is high, and the equipment utilization rate is low. Summary of the Utility Model

[0035] Referring to Figures 1-3 , this embodiment provides a mobile airtight sampling device, including a housing 1. Two parallel support wheels 2 are connected to the bottom of the housing 1.

[0036] A sampling bottle 9 is installed in the upper cavity 3. Valves are provided at both the inlet and outlet of the sampling bottle 9. An alkali solution tank 10 is installed in the lower cavity 4. A sampling flange 11 is installed on the outer side of the housing 1. The sampling flange 11 is communicated with one end of a sampling feed pipe 12. The sampling feed pipe 12 is a rigid pipe. The other end of the sampling feed pipe 12 extends into the upper cavity 3 and is communicated with the inlet of the sampling bottle 9. An inlet valve 13 is installed on the sampling feed pipe 12. The outlet of the sampling bottle 9 is communicated with one end of a sampling sewage discharge pipe 14. The other end of the sampling sewage discharge pipe 14 extends into the alkali solution tank 10 in the lower cavity 4. A sewage discharge valve 15 is installed on the sampling sewage discharge pipe 14. A manual pump 16 is installed on the sampling feed pipe 12 between the inlet valve 13 and the sampling bottle 9. The manual pump 16 is installed on the outer wall of the housing 1. An emergency sampling pipe 17 extends out of the sampling feed pipe 12 between the inlet valve 13 and the sampling bottle 9. An emergency sampling valve 18 is installed on the emergency sampling pipe 17. The emergency sampling pipe 17 and the emergency sampling valve 18 are located in the upper cavity 3.

[0037] On the side of the housing 1 where the sampling flange 11 is provided, a discharge flange 19 is also provided. A discharge pipe 20 extends out of the sampling sewage discharge pipe 14 between the sewage discharge valve 15 and the sampling bottle 9. The other end of the discharge pipe 20 is communicated with the discharge flange 19. A discharge valve 21 is installed on the discharge pipe 20. The original discharge method is retained for emergencies.

[0038] A handrail 22 is installed on the outer side of the housing 1 opposite to the side wall where the sampling flange 11 is located. A pipe protection rack 23 is provided in the upper cavity 3. The sampling feed pipe 12 and the sampling sewage discharge pipe 14 are both installed on the side of the pipe protection rack 23 facing the inside of the upper cavity 3. The sampling bottle 9, the inlet valve 13 and the sewage discharge valve 15 are all installed on the side of the pipe protection rack 23 facing the upper door panel 5.

[0039] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0040] When sampling is required, hold the handrail 22 and push the housing 1 so that the housing 1 moves to the designated position under the action of the support wheels 2. Then connect the sampling flange 11 to the anode gas discharge pipe of the electrolytic cell. Then open the inlet valve 13 on the sampling feed pipe 12, open the drain valve 15 on the sampling drain pipe 14, open the valves at the inlet and outlet of the sampling bottle 9, close the discharge valve 21 on the discharge pipe 20, and open the manual pump 16. Under the action of the manual pump 16, the gas is pumped into the sampling bottle 9 and retained in the sampling bottle 9. After the sampling bottle 9 is full, the excess gas will enter the lye tank 10 through the sampling drain pipe 14 for absorption treatment, avoiding the risk of personnel poisoning, asphyxiation and environmental pollution caused by waste gas overflow. Close the inlet valve 13, the manual pump 16 and the valves at the inlet and outlet of the sampling bottle 9, remove the sampling bottle 9, and send the sampling bottle 9 to the laboratory for analysis. The chlorine gas in the residual waste gas in the sampling drain pipe 14 will slowly be introduced into the lye tank 10. Thus, one sampling is completed, and the housing 1 can be pushed to the next electrolytic cell, and the above operations can be repeated for sampling.

[0041] When there is no time to sample with the sampling bottle 9 and emergency sampling is required, after connecting the sampling flange 11 to the anode gas discharge pipe of the electrolytic cell, connect the sampling feed pipe 12 to the emergency sampling container, keep the valves at the inlet and outlet of the sampling bottle 9 and the drain valve 15 on the sampling drain pipe 14 closed, open the inlet valve 13, the manual pump 16 and the emergency sampling valve 18 on the sampling feed pipe 12, and pump the gas out to the emergency sampling container through the emergency sampling pipe 17.

[0042] In this embodiment, three or four parallel support wheels 2 can also be provided at the bottom of the housing 1, and the housing 1 can be stably placed on the ground, and there is no need to lean the housing 1 against the wall or hold it by hand during sampling.

[0043] In this embodiment, the manual pump 16 can be used to pump the medium into the sampling bottle 9. The manual pump 16 can also be installed on the sampling drain pipe 14 between the sampling bottle 9 and the drain valve 15. After removing the sampling bottle 9, if the manual pump 16 continues to work, the residual waste gas in the sampling drain pipe 14 can be quickly pumped into the lye tank 10 for absorption treatment without waiting, further avoiding the risk of personnel poisoning, asphyxiation and environmental pollution caused by waste gas overflow.

[0044] In order to enable the residual waste gas in the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14 to quickly enter the lye tank 10 for absorption treatment, on the basis that the manual pump 16 is installed on the sampling feed pipe 12 between the inlet valve 13 and the sampling bottle 9, a sewage pump can be installed on the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14 to quickly pump the residual waste gas in the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14 into the lye tank 10 for absorption treatment when the valves at the inlet and outlet of the sampling bottle 9 are closed. At the same time, a pressure display meter can also be installed on the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14 to display the pressure in the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14, judge whether the waste gas in the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14 is completely discharged, and avoid the formation of a large negative pressure in the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14; or a one-way valve communicating with the atmosphere can be provided on the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14. The one-way valve only allows gas to enter the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14 and does not allow gas to be discharged, thereby avoiding the formation of a large negative pressure in the sampling and sewage discharge pipe 14.

[0045] In this embodiment, those skilled in the art should understand that the structure of the sampling bottle 9 is existing, and the sampling bottle 9 can be disassembled for convenient analysis.

[0046] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to these embodiments shown herein, but will be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
