[0022] like Figure 1-6As shown, a VOCs multi-channel automatic gas injection system includes multiple gas storage tanks 1 for storing the gas to be detected and a gas path connected to nitrogen. Each gas storage tank 1 is connected to a gas branch line 2, and multiple gas branch lines 2 are connected to gas branch valves 4.

The gas branch valves 4 include... The valve head 403 and valve core 404 are provided. The valve head 403 has multiple first air inlets and one first air outlet. Multiple gas branch lines 2 are connected to the multiple first air inlets on the valve head 403, and a main gas line 9 is connected to the first air outlet on the valve head 403. The valve core 404 is rotatable and centrally located in the valve head 403. A sealing strip 401 is provided on the valve core 404 to separate the multiple first air inlets and the first air outlet. A first central hole and a second air inlet are provided inside the valve core 404, communicating with each other. An opening sealing ring 402 is provided on the valve core 404. The sealing ring 402 has multiple through holes for connecting the first central hole and the first air outlet; the branch valve control unit 6 includes a control unit base 601, a drive motor 602, a reducer 603, and a position encoder 604. The control unit base 601 is mounted on the housing, the position encoder 604 and the reducer 603 are mounted on the control unit base 601, the drive motor 602 is connected to the reducer 603, a synchronous pulley A605 is connected to the position encoder 604, a synchronous pulley B607 is connected to the reducer 603, a synchronous belt 606 is provided between the synchronous pulleys A605 and B607, and the synchronous pulley B605... The control unit 601 is equipped with a synchronous pulley shaft 608. A connector 609 is connected to the control unit base 601. The connector 609 is connected to the valve head 403 of the gas diversion valve 4. The connector 609 has a second central hole and a connecting shaft is rotatably installed in the second central hole. The connecting shaft is connected to the valve core 404 of the gas diversion valve 4. The gas preheating unit 3 includes a fixed base 301, a temperature control sensor 302, a preheating rod 303, and a first temperature sensor 304. The fixed base 301 is sleeved on the gas diversion valve 4. The temperature control sensor 302, the preheating rod 303, and the first temperature sensor 304 are installed on the fixed base 301.The gas main heating unit 801 includes a gas heating belt 802 disposed inside the gas main pipeline 9, a second temperature sensor 803, and a gas main pipeline 9 insulation layer 804 disposed outside the gas main pipeline 9. The gas heating belt 802 is used to heat the gas in the gas main pipeline 9, and the second temperature sensor 803 is used to monitor the temperature of the gas in the gas main pipeline 9; the number of gas storage tanks 1 is: 15 The main gas pipeline 9 and the multiple gas branch pipelines 2 have all undergone surface silanization treatment.

[0023] Its detailed connection methods are well-known technologies in this field. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process, as follows:

[0024] In this utility model, the central temperature sensor 302, preheating rod 303, first temperature sensor 304, drive motor 602, position encoder 604, gas heating belt 802, and second temperature sensor 803 are all connected to an external electronic control system via wires. The first temperature sensor 304 and the second temperature sensor 803 can transmit signals to the electronic control system based on the temperature they sense. The above devices and connection methods are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] According to the instruction manual Figure 1-6 It can be seen that when a certain gas needs to be detected and analyzed, the gas branch valve 4 connected to the gas storage tank 1 is opened by the branch valve control unit 6. The gas storage tank 1 is under positive pressure. When the gas branch valve 4 is opened to the gas storage tank 1, the gas can flow from the gas storage tank 1 to the gas branch valve 4. The gas preheating unit 3 preheats the gas, and then the gas flows to the main gas pipeline 9. The main gas pipeline heating unit 801 reheats the gas in the main gas pipeline 9. The preheating and reheating of the gas are to make the gas more hygienic. Moisture in the gas is instantly vaporized, improving the accuracy and efficiency of gas analysis. After reheating, the gas flows into a gas detection device (such as a gas chromatograph) for detection. After a gas has been detected, the gas branch valve 4 closes the gas branch line 2 and opens the gas line with nitrogen, allowing nitrogen to flow into the gas branch valve 4 and the main gas line 9 for purging. The purged nitrogen is discharged from the exhaust port of the gas detection device to prevent residual detection gas in the gas branch valve 4 and the main gas line 9 from affecting the accuracy and precision of subsequent detections.

[0026] One possible implementation is that when the valve core 404 of the gas branch valve 4 rotates, the second air inlet on the valve core 404 corresponds to the position of a first air inlet on a valve head 403. Gas flows from the gas storage tank 1 through the gas branch pipe 2, the first air inlet, and the second air inlet to the first central hole on the valve core 404, and then flows out through the through hole on the perforated sealing ring 402, the first air outlet, and the main gas pipeline 9. By controlling the position of the second air inlet on the valve core 404 to correspond with each first air inlet, the conduction of each gas branch pipe 2 is controlled. The sealing strip 401 and the perforated sealing ring 402 are both used to seal the first air inlet and the second air outlet.

[0027] One possible implementation is that when the gas branch valve 4 needs to switch the connected gas branch line 2, the drive motor 602 is started. The drive motor 602 drives the synchronous pulley B607 to rotate through the reducer 603. The synchronous pulley B607 drives the synchronous pulley shaft 608 and drives the synchronous pulley A605 to rotate through the synchronous belt 606. Since the position encoder 604 is connected to the synchronous pulley A605, the position encoder 604 provides real-time feedback on the position of the drive motor 602 shaft. When the synchronous pulley shaft 608 rotates, it drives the connecting shaft (not shown in the figure) in the connecting member 609 to rotate. The connecting shaft drives the valve core 404 of the gas branch valve 4 to rotate, so that different gas branch lines 2 are connected. The connecting member 609 has a through hole, and the connecting shaft rotates into the through hole. The connecting member 609 is set on the control unit base 601, and the gas branch valve 4 is set on the connecting member 609. A high thermal conductivity grease is applied at the contact point between the lower end of the fixed base 301 and the upper end of the gas branch valve 4.

[0028] One possible implementation is that the fixed base 301 is fixedly sleeved on the gas diversion valve 4 by a set screw. The control base is provided with a heating chamber, which is connected to the first center hole opened on the valve core 404. When the gas to be tested is flowing through the gas diversion valve 4, the control system and the temperature sensor 302 adjust the heating temperature of the preheating rod 303 to heat the gas in the heating chamber. The first temperature sensor 304 feeds back the gas temperature to the control system to achieve the effect of constant temperature control.

[0029] One possible implementation is that the gas heating belt 802 has a temperature regulation function and can control the heating temperature, the second temperature sensor 803 monitors the gas temperature in the gas main pipeline 9, and the gas main pipeline 9 insulation layer 804 is set on the outside of the gas main pipeline 9 to insulate the gas main pipeline 9.

[0030] One possible implementation is to have 15 gas storage tanks 1, which are used to store the gas to be tested and analyzed.

[0031] One possible implementation is that the surfaces of the main gas pipeline 9 and the multiple gas branch pipelines 2 are all treated with surface silanization to reduce the adsorption and accumulation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on the pipeline surfaces, thereby reducing the inaccuracy of the detected concentration of VOCs.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
