Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of natural gas dispersal, in particular to a vehicle-mounted natural gas lifting and dispersing device. Background Art
[0002] Natural gas is a high-quality, efficient, and clean energy source. It's typically transported long distances using LNG tankers. To prevent excessive pressure in the LNG tankers, these tanks typically require a vent pipe to release the natural gas and reduce the pressure.
[0003] However, LNG tank trucks are subject to driving height restrictions, requiring that the height of the exhaust port of the vent pipe cannot exceed the restricted height. As a result, when the natural gas in the on-board gas tank is released, the low height of the exhaust port can easily lead to natural gas accumulation, posing a risk of fire or explosion. In addition, the exhaust port of the vent pipe is exposed to the air for a long time, which can easily cause dust or rainwater to enter the vent pipe, causing blockage or corrosion inside the vent pipe.

The end of the slide bar 14 away from the base plate 2 is fixedly connected to the slide plate 16. The slide plate 16 is provided with a threaded hole 17 that is threadedly connected to the screw 4. When the screw 4 rotates, it can drive the slide plate 16 threadedly connected to the screw 4 to move, and then the slide plate 16 drives the base plate 2 to move through the slide bar 14.
[0028] The top of the bottom plate 2 is fixedly connected to a discharge pipe 3, and a sealing cover 5 is provided at the exhaust port of the discharge pipe 3. A spring 6 is fixedly connected to the side of the sealing cover 5 away from the discharge pipe 3, and the other end of the spring 6 is fixedly connected to a limit plate 7. The opposite sides of the limit plate 7 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the discharge pipe 3 through a vertical rod 18. Through the elastic action of the spring 6, the sealing cover 5 can be tightly attached to the exhaust port of the discharge pipe 3 to prevent dust or rainwater from entering the discharge pipe 3; a sliding groove 19 is provided on the side wall of the sealing cover 5, which slides with the vertical rod 18 to improve the stability of the sealing cover 5 when it is lifted or dropped, and to prevent the sealing cover 5 from deviating from the exhaust port of the discharge pipe 3 and affecting the sealing effect of the exhaust port of the discharge pipe 3; A rubber gasket 22 is provided on the side of the cover 5 close to the exhaust port of the vent pipe 3 to improve the sealing effect and reduce the noise generated by the cover 5 falling and hitting the vent pipe 3; an annular support plate 23 is provided on the edge of the cover 5 close to the exhaust port of the vent pipe 3, so that rainwater can fall along the outer wall of the annular support plate 23, further preventing rainwater from entering the vent pipe 3; the air inlet of the vent pipe 3 passes through the bottom plate 2 and is connected to a hose 8.

The bottom plate 2 will drive the discharge pipe 3 to rise, so that the exhaust port height of the discharge pipe 3 is higher than the restricted height. After the height of the discharge pipe 3 is lifted, the air compressor 9 is started and the valve of the discharge pipe 3 is opened. The air compressor 9 will quickly discharge the natural gas in the vehicle-mounted gas tank into the discharge pipe 3, and the natural gas in the discharge pipe 3 will lift the cover 5 and be discharged; after the discharge is completed, the elastic action of the spring 6 can make the cover 5 close to the exhaust port of the discharge pipe 3 to prevent dust or rainwater from entering the discharge pipe 3.
