Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of combustible gas detection technology, specifically to a combustible gas leak alarm device. Background Technology

[0002] Combustible gas resources refer to various combustible gases that can be utilized, excluding piped natural gas. These include coalbed methane, coke oven gas, smelting tail gas, biogas, straw gas, carbon black gas, refining tail gas, underground coalbed gasification gas, oil shale gas, and associated petroleum gas that cannot be transported externally. During pipeline transportation, combustible gas may leak due to equipment aging and damage. Therefore, combustible gas leak alarm devices are needed to detect and alert to gas leaks.

[0003] The gas pipeline leak warning device disclosed in CN216383641U includes a warning light that illuminates when a gas leak occurs, alerting nearby personnel to the leak and facilitating timely repairs to prevent further damage from excessive gas leakage. A combustible gas sensor also detects a leak, illuminating the warning light for quick location and repair. It is easy to use; the first and second covers are simply fastened to the pipe connection with bolts for installation. However, the existing technology still has shortcomings:

[0004] 1. Existing technology still uses traditional bolts and nuts to connect and fix the equipment. Tools are required for installation and disassembly, which is cumbersome. After long-term use, the bolt and nut connections are prone to corrosion due to rain, which increases the difficulty of disassembly. At the same time, existing technology does not have a protective mechanism for its detection and alarm devices, which is easily affected by the external environment and increases the probability of damage.

[0005] 2. Existing technology only sets sealing strips at the contact points between the first and second covers and the pipes, but there are no sealing devices at the connection points between the first and second covers and the mounting housing. This allows combustible gas to still seep out from these gaps when it leaks, which is not conducive to stopping the continuous leakage of combustible gas in time and can easily lead to greater losses.
