[0023] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a pipeline system provided in an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figure 1As shown, the pipeline status monitoring device provided in this application embodiment includes a fixed ring 101, a sensor on the ring, a pipe wall sensor, and a main control device 102, wherein:

[0027] The retaining ring 101 is used to be sleeved on the monitored pipeline 100;

[0028] The sensor on the ring is set on the fixed ring 101 to detect the environmental parameters of the environment in which the monitored pipeline 100 is located.

[0029] The pipe wall sensor is installed on the monitored pipe 100 to detect the pipe parameters of the monitored pipe 100;

[0030] The main control device 102 monitors the status of the monitored pipeline 100 based on the detection results of the ring sensor and the pipe wall sensor.

[0031] In actual implementation, the pipe wall sensor can also be connected to the fixing ring 101 and set on the monitored pipe 100 through the fixing ring 101, so as to be in close contact with the pipe wall of the monitored pipe 100.

[0032] In practice, the fixing ring 101 can be fixed to the monitored pipeline 100 by welding; the fixing ring 101 can also be provided with a locking structure 103, and the fixing ring 101 is fixed to the monitored pipeline 100 by the locking structure 103, for example by using a buckle and bolt fastening method.

[0033] In other words, the pipeline status monitoring device provided in this application embodiment can use the fixing ring 101 to tightly fix the sensor on the ring and the pipe wall sensor. The main control device 102 combines the environmental parameters detected by the sensor on the ring and the pipeline parameters detected by the pipe wall sensor to perform pipeline status assessment, thereby realizing pipeline status monitoring.

[0034] In one specific implementation scheme, the pipeline condition monitoring device provided in this application embodiment may further include a strain sensor (not shown in the figure), which is disposed on the fixing ring 101 and is used to detect the loosening state of the fixing ring 101.

[0035] In actual implementation, the strain sensor can be set on the locking structure 103. When the fixing ring 101 becomes loose, it reports relevant information to the main control device 102.

[0036] In other words, the pipeline condition monitoring device provided in this application embodiment can use strain sensors to detect the loosening of the fixing ring 101, so as to ensure the tight fixing of the sensor on the ring and the pipe wall sensor, thereby ensuring the accuracy of pipeline condition monitoring.

[0037] In one specific implementation, the on-ring sensor may specifically include at least one of a temperature sensor 104 and a humidity sensor 105.

[0038] In other words, the pipeline condition monitoring device provided in this application embodiment can use a fixed ring 101 to mount a temperature sensor 104 for detecting ambient temperature and a humidity sensor 105 for detecting ambient humidity. Ambient temperature and ambient humidity serve as the basis for evaluating pipeline condition, further ensuring the accuracy of pipeline condition monitoring.

[0039] In one specific implementation, the pipe wall sensor may specifically include at least one of a temperature sensor 106 and a vibration sensor 107.

[0040] In actual implementation, the pipe wall sensor may include multiple temperature sensors 106; in the vertical direction along the laying direction of the monitored pipe 100, the multiple temperature sensors 106 are at different heights on the pipe wall of the monitored pipe 100.

[0041] Specifically, the pipe wall sensor includes three temperature sensors 106;

[0042] Vertical to the laying direction of the monitored pipeline 100, three temperature sensors 106 are located at the upper, middle and lower parts of the monitored pipeline 100, respectively. The positions of the three temperature sensors 106 form a straight line, that is, the three temperature sensors 106 are arranged in an inclined straight line to measure the temperature of the upper, middle and lower parts of the pipeline.

[0043] In actual implementation, the vibration of the pipeline detected by the vibration sensor 107 can provide feedback on the vibration of the medium inside the pipeline as it flows through the fixed ring 101.

[0044] In other words, the pipeline condition monitoring device provided in this application embodiment can use a fixed ring 101 to mount a temperature sensor 106 for detecting pipeline temperature and a vibration sensor 107 for detecting pipeline vibration. There can be multiple temperature sensors 106 to detect the pipeline temperature at different locations. The pipeline temperature and pipeline vibration serve as the basis for evaluating the pipeline condition, further ensuring the accuracy of pipeline condition monitoring.

[0045] In one specific implementation scheme, the main control device 102 manages the various sensors of the pipeline status monitoring device and simultaneously receives externally set parameters.

[0046] In actual implementation, the parameters of the monitored pipeline 100, such as the medium parameters, pipeline material, and pipeline wall thickness, are set in advance by the main control device 102, taking into account the internal medium conditions of the pipeline.

[0047] The main control device 102 can calculate the temperature of the medium inside the pipeline by combining sensor data, and at the same time perform trend analysis and anomaly reporting to achieve safety early warning of pipeline status.

[0048] This application also provides a pipeline system, including a monitored pipeline 100 and the aforementioned pipeline status monitoring device.
