Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of negative pressure and high pressure relief alarms, and in particular to a pressure relief alarm. Background Art
[0002] In industries such as vacuum cleaners and air compressors, negative and high-pressure relief alarms are required to effectively protect equipment and alert operators. Patent application number 200920286274.6 discloses a high-pressure oil leak alarm for internal combustion engines. The alarm consists of an alarm device, an oil reservoir, a sensor, a float, a magnet, a relief valve, and a Hall effect element. The sensor replaces the original reed switch with a Hall effect element, and the main structure consists of an injection-molded oil reservoir and sensing column, replacing the original welded metal assembly. This utility model features high sensitivity, excellent stability and reliability, and excellent safety and shock resistance.
[0003] However, existing pressure relief alarms have some shortcomings that need improvement. Most existing pressure relief valves are purely mechanical and only provide a pressure relief function, failing to provide an alarm to the operator. This means that operators may not be able to detect pressure relief in time and therefore be unable to take appropriate measures, potentially posing a risk of equipment damage.
[0004] Existing methods for implementing pressure relief alarms, using a combination of pressure relief valves and electronics—including a pressure relief valve, pressure gauge, intermediate relay, and alarm—can achieve their intended purpose, but they present numerous challenges. First, this combination design is costly, increasing a company's equipment investment. Second, because multiple components work together, the failure rate is high, making it easy for a single component failure to cause the entire system to fail. Furthermore, this high failure rate also leads to high maintenance costs, requiring regular inspection and repair of each component, consuming significant manpower and material resources. Therefore, we have addressed this issue by proposing a pressure relief alarm. Utility Model Content

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features and technical solutions therein can be combined with each other. It should be noted that similar numbers and letters represent similar items in the following drawings. Therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings.
[0027] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-6 A pressure relief alarm includes a pressure relief portion and an alarm portion. The pressure relief portion includes an outer wall 4, within which a spring 3 is disposed. A spring baffle 301 is disposed at the end of the spring 3. The alarm portion includes an alarm whistle 2, which is mounted on the spring baffle. In this embodiment, the spring baffle 301 is provided with a whistle mounting socket 3011, into which the alarm whistle 2 is inserted. A pressure adjustment rod 5 is provided at the centerline of the outer wall 4. An adjustment rod thread 501 on the pressure adjustment rod 5 is threadedly engaged with a pressure adjustment nut 1. A sealing ring 6 is mounted on the pressure adjustment rod 5.
[0028] The end of the pressure adjustment rod 5 is provided with an adjustment knob 7, which is provided with an arcuate knob slot 8. Five arcuate knob slots 8 are provided, allowing access for insertion of a rod insertion tool, facilitating rotation of the adjustment knob 7 and preventing the adjustment knob 7 from being overtightened and unable to be loosened or removed. A hexagonal nut fixing buckle 9 is provided on the outer surface of the outer wall 4.
[0029] There are 1 to 6 alarm whistles 2, and different numbers of alarm whistles 2 are selected according to different alarm sounds. A cross whistle port 201 is provided at the front end of the alarm whistle 2, and a conical fixing head 202 is provided at a distance of 1 cm to 3 cm from the port of the alarm whistle 2.
[0030] The spring baffle 301 is circular in shape and has six whistle mounting holes 3011 arranged in a circular array thereon. The conical fixing head 202 fits on the inner side of the whistle mounting holes 3011.
[0031] Outer wall 4 serves as the outer shell of the pressure relief alarm, providing structural support and protecting internal components. Spring 3, mounted within outer wall 4, provides elastic force for pressure regulation. When the pressure within the system exceeds a preset value, spring 3 compresses, triggering the alarm mechanism. Pressure adjustment rod 5, located at the centerline of outer wall 4, adjusts the preload of spring 3, thereby setting the trigger pressure for the pressure relief alarm. Adjustment rod thread 501 and pressure adjustment nut 1: These two components work together to adjust the position of pressure adjustment rod 5, thereby adjusting the pressure of spring 3, by rotating the adjustment nut.
[0032] Adjustment knob 7: Set at the end of the pressure adjustment rod 5, with a knob arc groove 8, which is convenient for rotating and adjusting using tools to avoid the problem of being too tight and unable to loosen. Hexagonal nut fixing buckle 9: Set on the outer surface of the outer wall 4, used to fix the pressure relief alarm in the system. Whistle mounting socket 3011: A circular array is set on the spring baffle 301, with a total of 6, for installing the alarm whistle 2. The conical fixing head 202 fits on the inner side of the whistle mounting socket 3011 and is used to fix the alarm whistle 2 to ensure that it can sound stably when triggered.
[0033] The process of using the present invention is as follows: first, the pressure relief alarm is installed in a system that needs pressure relief and alarm, such as a gas or liquid pressure system. The outer wall 4 is fixed to a suitable position of the system by a hexagonal nut fixing buckle 9.
[0034] According to the system's operating requirements and safety standards, the position of the pressure adjustment rod 5 is adjusted by rotating the adjustment knob 7 through the knob's arcuate slot 8. Because the pressure adjustment rod 5 is threadedly engaged with the pressure adjustment nut 1, turning the knob changes the degree of compression of the spring 3, thereby setting the desired pressure threshold.
[0035] When the system operates normally, the internal pressure is lower than the set threshold, the spring 3 remains in place, the spring baffle 301 and the whistle installation socket 3011 remain in a stable state, and the whistle 2 will not sound an alarm.
[0036] When the internal pressure of the system rises to exceed the set threshold, the internal pressure pushes the spring baffle 301 to compress the spring 3 and move inward. At this time, due to the coordinated action of the pressure regulating rod 5, the sealing ring 6 and the spring 3, the pressure relief part starts to work.
[0037] As the pressure increases further, the spring 3 is continuously compressed, and the sealing ring 6 is pressed out of a gap. At this time, air flow is generated in the alarm whistle 2, thereby emitting a sharp alarm sound.
[0038] The alarm sound emitted by the alarm whistle 2 can immediately remind surrounding operators that the internal pressure of the system is too high and that emergency measures need to be taken to reduce the pressure or perform system inspections.
[0039] Once the pressure inside the system drops to a safe level, the spring 3 will push the spring baffle 301 to reset, the alarm whistle 2 will stop sounding, and the system will return to normal working state.
[0040] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described in the present invention. Although this specification has described the present invention in detail with reference to the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above specific implementation methods. Therefore, any modification or equivalent replacement of the present invention; and all technical solutions and improvements thereof that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention are included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
