Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of natural gas production equipment, and specifically relates to a sampling device for natural gas production. Background Art
[0002] Natural gas refers to all gases that exist naturally in nature, including gases formed by various natural processes in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere (including oilfield gas, gas field gas, mud volcano gas, coalbed methane, and biogenic gas, etc.). The long-term commonly used definition of "natural gas" is a narrow definition from an energy perspective, referring to a mixture of hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon gases naturally stored in the strata. In petroleum geology, it usually refers to oilfield gas and gas field gas. Its composition is mainly hydrocarbon and contains non-hydrocarbon gases. The main use of natural gas is as fuel, and it can be used to manufacture carbon black, chemical drugs, and liquefied petroleum gas. Propane and butane produced from natural gas are important raw materials for modern industry. Natural gas is mainly composed of a mixture of gaseous low-molecular hydrocarbons and non-hydrocarbon gases.
[0003] After natural gas is produced and transported, component analysis is required. By connecting a sampling device to the natural gas pipeline, the gas inside the pipeline is released. The existing natural gas sampling devices usually connect a sampling pipe to the natural gas pipeline, with a relatively simple structure, and it is easy to cause natural gas leakage during the sampling process. To solve the above problems, a new type of sampling device for natural gas production with the Chinese patent publication number CN214472083U includes a conveying pipeline, and a fixed pipe is installed on the side wall of the conveying pipeline. When the device is in use, the connecting pipe is sleeved above the fixed pipe through the internal side wall thread of the connecting pipe. The threaded connection facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the connecting pipe. The control valve on the fixed pipe is used to open and close the conveying of the fixed pipe to prevent natural gas leakage during the installation of the connecting pipe. During sampling, the micro cylinder in the sampling pipe drives the telescopic rod to drive the blocking plate to rise, and the sampling hole is opened due to the movement of the blocking plate. The sealing ball rises due to the pressure difference on both sides, and natural gas enters the sampling pipe through the sealing pipe. The circulating water cooling device on the right side of the sampling pipe cools the sampled natural gas to prevent scalding accidents. When sampling is completed, the blocking plate is pushed back to its original position by the reset spring, and the sealing ball falls to seal the sealing pipe.
[0004] However, when the device is in use, since the inner diameter of the sealing pipe is fixed, the sampling rate of natural gas cannot be adjusted. When the sampling volume is large, the sampling time is long.
[0005] Therefore, this application provides a sampling device for natural gas production to solve the problems of poor sealing effect and inconvenient adjustment of sampling efficiency of the existing natural gas sampling devices. Summary of the Utility Model
[0006] To solve the above problems, the utility model provides a sampling device for natural gas production.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is as follows: A sampling device for natural gas production, including a branch pipeline connected to a natural gas pipeline and a sampling assembly. The outer end of the branch pipeline is connected with a sealing assembly. The sampling assembly includes a connecting sleeve and a sampling rod. The connecting sleeve is detachably connected to the outer end of the sealing assembly. The sampling rod is slidably connected to the connecting sleeve, and a sampling pipe is connected to the connecting sleeve;
[0008] The sealing assembly includes a first sealing pipe and a second sealing pipe sequentially connected to the branch pipeline. A sealing ball is arranged inside the first sealing pipe, and an elastic sealing member is arranged inside the second sealing pipe. The elastic sealing member contacts the sealing ball.
[0009] As an optimization, an electromagnetic valve is connected to the branch pipeline. The branch pipeline is hermetically connected to the first sealing pipe. An elastic retaining piece is arranged inside the first sealing pipe. The sealing ball is located between the elastic retaining piece and the elastic sealing member. A connecting pipe is arranged at the outer end of the second sealing pipe, and the connecting pipe is detachably connected to the connecting sleeve.
[0010] As an optimization, a first adjustment cavity and a second adjustment cavity are arranged inside the first sealing pipe. The first adjustment cavity is adjacent to the branch pipeline. The diameter of the first adjustment cavity is larger than that of the second adjustment cavity. The diameter of the second adjustment cavity is larger than that of the sealing ball.
[0011] As an optimization, the elastic sealing member includes an adjustment rod, a support spring, and a sealing block. The sealing block is in sealing contact with the inner side of the open end of the second sealing pipe. One end of the adjustment rod is fixedly connected to the sealing block. The other end of the adjustment rod is connected with a push block. The push block contacts the sealing ball. One end of the support spring is fixedly connected to the end of the second sealing pipe connected to the first sealing pipe, and the other end of the support spring is fixedly connected to the sealing block.
[0012] As an optimization, a sampling opening is arranged at the end of the second sealing pipe far from the first sealing pipe. The diameter of the sampling opening is smaller than the inner diameter of the second sealing pipe.
[0013] As an optimization, the sampling rod is slidably and hermetically connected to the connecting sleeve, and a handle is connected to the outer end of the sampling rod.
[0014] The sampling device for natural gas production in this solution has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] When the natural gas sampling device of this application is specifically used, it is connected to the sealing assembly through the sampling assembly. The sampling rod pushes the elastic sealing member to move, and the position of the sealing ball is adjusted by pushing to realize the adjustment of the sampling rate, improving the sampling efficiency of natural gas;
