[0035] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the control alarm module provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0036] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, not the entire structure.
[0037] This utility model provides a gas monitoring and alarm system. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a gas monitoring and alarm system provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The gas monitoring and alarm system is installed in an oil and gas pipeline tunnel, which is laid with oil and gas pipelines, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the system includes a monitoring module 110 and a control alarm module 120.
[0038] The monitoring module 110 is connected to the control and alarm module 120. The monitoring module 110 includes multiple combustible gas monitoring units 111, toxic and harmful gas monitoring units 112, and oxygen monitoring units 113. The multiple combustible gas monitoring units 111 are spaced apart at the top of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel, the multiple toxic and harmful gas monitoring units 112 are spaced apart at the bottom of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel, and the multiple oxygen monitoring units 113 are spaced apart on the sidewalls of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. The monitoring module 110 is used to monitor the concentration of combustible gas, toxic and harmful gas, and oxygen at multiple locations in the oil and gas pipeline tunnel and send the data to the control and alarm module 120. The combustible gas includes methane and carbon monoxide, and the toxic and harmful gas includes hydrogen sulfide, isobutane, and carbon dioxide.
[0039] The control alarm module 120 is used to issue an alarm signal when the concentration of any one of the combustible gas, toxic and harmful gas and oxygen at any location in the oil and gas pipeline tunnel reaches the corresponding threshold.
[0040] Combustible gases may include hydrogen, ethane, propane, and other flammable gases, while toxic and harmful gases may include sulfur dioxide and other toxic and harmful gases. When the concentration of combustible gases exceeds a certain threshold, it can easily lead to explosions within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. When the concentration of toxic and harmful gases exceeds a certain threshold, it can cause poisoning of personnel entering the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. When the oxygen concentration is below a certain threshold, it can cause breathing difficulties for personnel entering the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. Therefore, the concentrations of combustible gases, toxic and harmful gases, and oxygen are crucial to the safety of personnel entering the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. Real-time monitoring of these concentrations is necessary to promptly detect oil and gas leaks within the tunnel and ensure the safety of personnel entering the tunnel. Multiple combustible gas monitoring units 111 may include sensors for detecting combustible gases, toxic and harmful gas monitoring units 112 may include sensors for detecting toxic and harmful gases, and oxygen monitoring units 113 may include sensors for detecting oxygen concentration, thereby enabling the monitoring module 110 to monitor the concentrations of combustible gases, toxic and harmful gases, and oxygen.
[0041] Specifically, the monitoring module 110 includes multiple combustible gas monitoring units 111, toxic and harmful gas monitoring units 112, and oxygen monitoring units 113. Because combustible gases, toxic and harmful gases, and oxygen have different densities, they accumulate at different locations within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. Combustible gases have a lower density and tend to dissipate upwards into the tunnel; therefore, multiple combustible gas monitoring units 111 can be spaced out at the top of the tunnel. Toxic and harmful gases have a lower density and tend to settle at the bottom of the tunnel; therefore, multiple toxic and harmful gas monitoring units 112 can be spaced out at the bottom of the tunnel. The density of oxygen determines the location of the working personnel... To ensure the respiratory safety of personnel, and given that oxygen density falls between that of combustible and toxic gases, multiple oxygen monitoring units 113 are spaced apart on the sidewalls of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. This allows the monitoring module 110 to monitor the concentrations of combustible gases, toxic gases, and oxygen at multiple locations within the tunnel. This arrangement of the combustible gas monitoring units 111, toxic gas monitoring units 112, and oxygen monitoring units 113 ensures more reliable and accurate information on the concentrations of combustible gases, toxic gases, and oxygen within the tunnel, reducing detection errors. Furthermore, by spaced out multiple combustible gas monitoring units 111, toxic gas monitoring units 112, and oxygen monitoring units 113, the gas concentrations at various locations within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel can be monitored, enabling accurate location of oil and gas leaks and ensuring the safety of personnel entering the tunnel.
[0042] The control alarm module 120 can issue an alarm signal when the concentration of any one of the combustible gas, toxic and harmful gas, and oxygen at any location within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel reaches the corresponding threshold. For example, when the concentration of combustible gas at a certain location is greater than the combustible gas threshold, or the concentration of toxic and harmful gas is greater than the toxic and harmful gas threshold, or the oxygen concentration is less than the oxygen threshold, the control alarm module 120 will issue an alarm signal, thereby enabling staff to promptly detect oil and gas leaks within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel, ensuring the safety of personnel entering the oil and gas pipeline tunnel, and has broad application prospects.
[0043] This utility model provides a gas monitoring and alarm system installed in an oil and gas pipeline tunnel. The system includes a monitoring module and a control and alarm module. The monitoring module is connected to the control and alarm module. The monitoring module includes multiple combustible gas monitoring units, toxic and harmful gas monitoring units, and oxygen monitoring units. The combustible gas monitoring units are spaced apart at the top of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel, and the oxygen monitoring units are spaced apart on the sidewalls of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. The monitoring module monitors the concentrations of combustible gases, toxic and harmful gases, and oxygen at multiple locations within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel and sends the data to the control and alarm module. It detects combustible gases and toxic and harmful gases contained in the oil and gas in real time, and determines whether the oil and gas pipeline tunnel is suitable for personnel to enter by detecting the oxygen concentration. The control and alarm module can issue an alarm signal when the concentration of any of the combustible gases, toxic and harmful gases, and oxygen at any location within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel reaches a corresponding threshold, thereby promptly detecting oil and gas leaks within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel and accurately locating the leak location. This ensures the safety of personnel entering the oil and gas pipeline tunnel and has broad application prospects.
[0044] This utility model embodiment also provides another gas monitoring and alarm system. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of another gas monitoring and alarm system provided in this embodiment of the present invention is shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the gas monitoring and alarm system also includes a photovoltaic power supply module 130. The photovoltaic power supply module 130 is installed outside the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. The photovoltaic power supply module 130 is connected to the monitoring module 110 and the control and alarm module 120 via cables. The photovoltaic power supply module 130 is used to convert light energy into electrical energy to power the monitoring module 110 and the control and alarm module 120.
[0045] The photovoltaic power supply module 130 is installed outside the oil and gas pipeline tunnel, for example, the photovoltaic power supply module 130 can be installed at the entrance of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel.
[0046] Specifically, since the oil and gas pipeline tunnel is located in a mountainous area where there are typically no power lines, the power supply problem for the gas monitoring and alarm system is solved by installing photovoltaic power supply modules 130 to power the monitoring module 110 and the control and alarm module 120. The photovoltaic power supply module 130 can be a solar panel, and it includes an inverter and a DC power supply. The photovoltaic power supply module 130 converts solar energy into electrical energy, which is then converted into DC power by the inverter and supplied to the DC power supply. This DC power supply powers the monitoring module 110 and the control and alarm module 120, eliminating the need for an external power source.
[0047] Optional, such as Figure 2 As shown, the gas monitoring and alarm system also includes a display module 140; the display module 140 is connected to the control alarm module 120, and the control alarm module 120 is also used to send the alarm information corresponding to the alarm signal to the display module 140, and the display module 140 is used to display the alarm information.
[0048] Specifically, the display module 140 can be connected to the control alarm module 120 via cable or wireless signal. The control alarm module 120 can send alarm information corresponding to the alarm signal to the display module 140, and can also send real-time information on the concentration of combustible gas, toxic and harmful gas and oxygen at multiple locations in the oil and gas pipeline tunnel to the display module 140. The display module 140 can display the alarm information in real time, and can also display the real-time concentration information of combustible gas, toxic and harmful gas and oxygen at multiple locations in the oil and gas pipeline tunnel, thereby making it easier for staff to monitor the oil and gas leak situation in the oil and gas pipeline tunnel.
[0049] Optionally, the display module 140 includes a display screen, a mobile phone, and a computer.
[0050] Specifically, the display module 140 can be a display screen, a mobile phone, or a computer. The display screen can be the screen controlling the alarm module 120, thereby enabling local display. Alarm information can be displayed through the display screen, mobile phone, or computer, allowing staff to remotely receive alarm information and promptly detect oil and gas leaks in the oil and gas pipeline tunnel.
[0051] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of another gas monitoring and alarm system provided in this embodiment of the present invention is shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the gas monitoring and alarm system also includes a wireless signal transmission module 150; the wireless signal transmission module 150 is installed at the entrance of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel, and the wireless signal transmission module 150 is communicatively connected to the display module 140 and the control alarm module 120 respectively. The wireless signal transmission module 150 is used to establish a remote communication connection between the display module 140 and the control alarm module 120.
[0052] Specifically, the wireless signal transmission module 150 offers flexible networking options, enabling remote communication between the display module 140 and the control alarm module 120 via 4G / 5G mobile communication links, satellite communication, and other methods. This allows personnel not on-site at the oil and gas pipeline tunnel to remotely receive alarm information via mobile phone or computer, promptly detecting oil and gas leaks within the tunnel and taking appropriate measures. The wireless signal transmission module 150 solves the problem of transmitting communication signals to computers and mobile phones in mountainous areas without existing signal coverage, ensuring signal transmission within the oil and gas tunnel is free of loss or distortion, guaranteeing the effectiveness and stability of the transmitted signal.
[0053] like Figure 3 As shown, optionally, multiple combustible gas monitoring units 111, toxic and harmful gas monitoring units 112, and oxygen monitoring units 113 are all connected to the control alarm module 120.

[0057] Specifically, the lengths of the first, second, and third preset distances can be adaptively set according to the length of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel, ensuring that combustible gas monitoring units 111, toxic and harmful gas monitoring units 112, and oxygen monitoring units 113 are installed at key locations within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. The first preset height is the most suitable height for detecting toxic and harmful gases and can be set according to the height of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. The second to third preset heights are the most suitable heights for detecting oxygen concentration and can also be set according to the height of the oil and gas pipeline tunnel. Through the above settings, the gas concentration at various locations within the oil and gas pipeline tunnel can be monitored, and the location of oil and gas leaks within the tunnel can be accurately located, ensuring the safety of personnel entering the oil and gas pipeline tunnel.
