Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a safety detection system, in particular to a vehicle-mounted tank safety detection system, and belongs to the technical field of vehicle-mounted tank safety performance detection. Background Art

[0002] In the industry, the materials transported by motor vehicles loaded with tanks are often flammable, explosive or toxic liquids or gases. During driving, potholes in the road, emergency braking and other situations may sometimes cause the liquid or gas in the tank to shake and collide inside the tank, causing the tank to rupture or material leakage, which in turn causes accidents. For this reason, in addition to the excellent quality assurance of the tank itself during manufacturing and production, the safety performance of the tank needs to be regularly tested in operation management. However, it is inevitable that due to environmental corrosion, natural aging and other reasons, the deterioration of the safety performance of the tank is manifested in a gradual manner, and potential accidents are also exposed from time to time. In production practice, many accidents often occur between the time points of two regular inspections.

[0003] Based on the above situation, a solution that can be easily thought of is to reduce the interval between two consecutive tank safety performance tests, or to increase the number of tests at irregular intervals, that is, to increase the overall frequency of tank safety performance tests. This measure can naturally avoid the occurrence of safety accidents to a certain extent, but there is a corresponding increase in costs such as manpower, material resources, and time. The industry needs a real-time, simple, and efficient technical solution for vehicle-mounted tank safety performance testing. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned defects existing in the prior art, the technical problem that the utility model attempts to solve is how to detect the safety performance of the vehicle-mounted tank in real time, simply and efficiently, so as to discover safety hazards at any time and provide necessary reminder information to vehicle drivers, management agencies, security inspection agencies, etc., especially when the safety performance indicators of the tank are close to dangerous values, it can remind all relevant parties and take security measures such as deactivation, maintenance or scrapping of the tank in time to avoid accidents.

[0005] In the prior art, when the safety performance of a vehicle-mounted tank is tested, the tank is usually sent to a special security inspection agency for testing.

[0006] The designer of the present utility model has found that when there are problems with the safety performance of a vehicle-mounted tank, it is usually accompanied by mechanical deformation of the tank body, especially the mechanical deformation of certain special parts on the surface of the tank body, such as the deformation at the bending part of the head of the tank body, etc. Therefore, by detecting the mechanical deformation of the tank body, the overall detection of the safety performance of the tank body can be basically achieved. Moreover, in view of the mobility or uncertainty of the position of the vehicle-mounted tank, the data transmission method of wireless communication is also an essential technical means used in this application to solve its technical problems.

[0007] Therefore, how to detect the mechanical deformation of a vehicle-mounted tank that is often in a moving state, how to transmit the relevant data of this deformation to relevant personnel in real time, and how to achieve necessary alarm reminders are all technical problems directly faced by this application. The ultimate goal of solving these technical problems is also to provide a relatively convenient and easy-to-implement problem-solving solution in the technical field of the safety detection of vehicle-mounted tanks.

[0008] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present utility model provides a safety detection system for a vehicle-mounted tank and adopts the following technical solutions.

[0011] The tank body strain acquisition module is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the vehicle-mounted tank and is used for acquiring the mechanical deformation of the vehicle-mounted tank and outputting deformation data;

[0012] After receiving the deformation data output by the tank body strain acquisition module, the strain data processing module transmits the deformation data to the wireless data transmission module in a wireless communication manner;

[0013] The wireless data transmission module transmits the deformation data to the network server;

[0014] The network server compares the deformation data with the set deformation threshold. When the value of the deformation data is greater than the deformation threshold, the network server sends an alarm message to the network terminal;

[0029] In order to more clearly illustrate the characteristics of the technical solution of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further elaborated in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the drawings.

[0030] The utility model provides a vehicle-mounted tank safety detection system for real-time monitoring of the safety performance of a vehicle-mounted tank.

[0031] The system includes: a tank strain acquisition module 100, a strain data processing module 200, a wireless data transmission module 300, a network server 400, and a network terminal 500;

[0032] The tank strain acquisition module 100 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the vehicle-mounted tank and is used to collect the mechanical deformation of the vehicle-mounted tank and output deformation data;

[0033] After receiving the deformation data output by the tank strain acquisition module 100, the strain data processing module 200 transmits the deformation data to the wireless data transmission module 300 in a wireless communication manner;

[0034] The wireless data transmission module 300 transmits the deformation data to the network server 400;

[0035] The network server 400 compares the deformation data with a set deformation threshold. When the value of the deformation data is greater than the deformation threshold, the network server 400 sends an alarm message to the network terminal 500;

[0036] The deformation threshold is set through the network terminal 500.

[0037] The schematic block diagram of the system module composition is shown by Figure 1 In the figure, the letter N represents a natural number. It can be seen from this figure that the module composition of this system can also be simply referred to as the following five parts: data acquisition, data processing, data transmission, network server, and network terminal.

[0038] As a preferred embodiment, the installation position of the tank strain acquisition module 100 on the vehicle-mounted tank is the head bending part of the vehicle-mounted tank, and the number of the tank strain acquisition modules 100 is one or more.

[0039] In this preferred embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the installation position of the tank strain acquisition module 100 on the vehicle-mounted tank is determined as the head bending part of the vehicle-mounted tank. This is considering the particularity of this position: due to the particularity of the geometric structure and the complexity of the boundary conditions at the head bending part of the vehicle-mounted tank, when the liquid or gas in the vehicle-mounted tank shakes violently, the load of the entire tank will bring additional impacts to these special positions, and more serious stress concentration phenomena will occur at these positions, and it is easy to cause the damage of the tank at these positions.

[0040] It should be noted that Figure 2 Figure Figure 2 shows the installation position of the tank body strain acquisition module 100 on the surface of the vehicle-mounted tank. For the convenience of drawing, this figure is only schematic. The size ratio relationship between the two shown in the figure does not represent or limit the actual size ratio relationship in the specific embodiments of the present application.

[0041] As a preferred embodiment, the strain data processing module 200 includes a filtering processing sub-module 210 for removing the noise mixed in the deformation data.

[0042] In this preferred embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, considering the complexity of the outdoor electromagnetic environment where the vehicle-mounted tank is located, especially the pulse interference of the electrical signals of motor vehicles that the system may encounter, the signals received by the strain data processing module 200 in this system will inevitably have clutter. Therefore, in order to avoid false alarms, it is necessary to filter this signal.

[0043] As a preferred embodiment, the wireless data transmission module 300 includes an input terminal module 310 for receiving Lora signals.

[0044] In this preferred embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the strain data processing module 200 and the wireless data transmission module 300 communicate with each other in the form of Lora wireless signals. Naturally, it is required that the deformation data output by the strain data processing module 200 is carried by the Lora wireless signal.

[0045] LoRa (Long Range), as a low-power wide area network (LPWAN) technology, can be used for long-distance radio transmission. It uses spread spectrum technology to allow long-distance (several kilometers or even farther) communication at extremely low power consumption, and is particularly suitable for application scenarios that require battery power supply and long communication distance, especially the Internet of Things working scenario of vehicle-mounted mobility in the present invention.

[0046] As a preferred embodiment, the wireless data transmission module 300 includes an output terminal module 320 for sending 4G or 5G mobile network signals.

[0047] In this preferred embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the wireless data transmission module 300 and the network server 400 communicate with each other in the form of 4G or 5G wireless signals. Naturally, it is required that the deformation data output by the wireless data transmission module 300 is carried by the 4G or 5G wireless signal.

[0048] In contrast, LoRa mentioned above is mostly used in low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs), which focus on low-data-rate, long-distance, and low-power Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Here, 4G or 5G mobile networks are used for wide-area networks with high data rates to support smart mobile terminals and other devices that require high-speed Internet connections. Although their power consumption is relatively high, in the application scenario of the present utility model, a stable commercial power supply can provide power support for the wireless data transmission module 300.

[0049] As a preferred embodiment, the network terminal 500 includes one or more smart mobile terminals.

[0050] In this preferred embodiment, by accessing the network server 400 through smart mobile terminal devices such as 4G and 5G mobile phones, the deformation condition of the vehicle-mounted tank can be understood at any time and anywhere. In particular, it is available for multiple institutions and personnel to conduct real-time monitoring of the safety performance of the tank.

[0051] As a preferred embodiment, the alarm information is in the form of a short message applied to a mobile smart terminal as its information carrier manifestation.

[0052] In this preferred embodiment, the alarm information takes the short message as the medium manifestation form because it is a relatively common communication form for mobile smart terminal devices such as mobile phones.

[0053] Finally, it should be noted that although the present utility model has been exemplarily described through specific embodiments, it does not constitute a limitation on the patent protection scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that various equivalent replacements and optimization improvements can still be made to the specific embodiments of the present utility model, and any replacement and improvement that does not depart from the spirit of the present utility model should be covered within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
