Oxygen cylinders and acetylene cylinders serve as the core gas sources for these operations, providing the necessary combustion-supporting and combustible gases for welding and cutting. These cylinders are typically exposed to the outdoor environment; prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause a rapid rise in surface temperature, posing a significant risk of explosion. Therefore, sun protection devices for these cylinders are of considerable practical importance.
[0003] The prior art discloses a prefabricated gas cylinder sun protection device, which includes a fixing frame, a sunshade, and a cover plate. The fixing frame is fitted onto the outside of the gas cylinder, and the sunshade is placed on the outside of the fixing frame, which effectively reduces the surface temperature of the gas cylinder during use. Since the gas cylinder sun protection device is a prefabricated structure, it can overcome the defect of traditional large sunshade equipment that is not easy to move, and the device occupies a small area and is easy to store.
[0004] However, when the aforementioned prefabricated gas cylinder sun protection device is not in use, in order to reduce the space occupied, it is necessary to disassemble the fixing frame, sun protection cover and cover plate and other components, which will increase the workload of the staff. Utility Model Content

[0030] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0031] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a sun protection device, mainly used for sun protection and cooling of equipment exposed to outdoor environments. The equipment includes, but is not limited to, gas cylinders, and is particularly suitable for gas cylinders placed on a trolley. The sun protection device includes a frame 1, a flexible shielding component 2, and a support component 3. The frame 1 includes a pivotally connected first rotating part 11 and a second rotating part 12. The flexible shielding component 2 is attached to the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12 to block sunlight. The support component 3 is connected to the frame 1 to support the frame 1 and maintain the stability of the sun protection device. This sun protection device can be placed on the ground or mounted on a trolley used to hold gas cylinders.
[0032] The frame 1 includes a first state in which the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12 are set at an angle, and a second state in which the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12 are in contact with each other. When the sun protection device is in use, the frame 1 switches to the first state, and the flexible shielding part 2, together with the angled first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12, forms a shielding space to protect the gas cylinder from the sun and cool it down. When the sun protection device is not in use, the frame 1 switches to the second state, with the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12 in contact with each other. The sun protection device occupies a small space and is easy to store. The frame 1 is also easy to switch between the first state and the second state. It only requires the staff to manually apply a certain external force to the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12. There is no need to disassemble the frame 1 with external tools, thereby reducing the workload of the staff.
[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the frame 1 also includes a pivot 13, through which the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12 are pivotally connected. Both the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12 include rotating rods 111 and uprights 112. A plurality of rotating rods 111 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the pivot 13 and rotatably connected to the pivot 13. The uprights 112 are fixedly connected to the ends of the rotating rods 111 away from the pivot 13. The rotating rods 111 and the uprights 112, together with the pivot 13, form a frame structure, providing support for the flexible shielding member 2. In this embodiment, there are two rotating rods 111 to reduce the weight of the sun protection device, facilitate transportation, and reduce the manufacturing cost of the sun protection device. The two rotating rods 111 are rotatably connected to both ends of the pivot 13, and the two ends of the uprights 112 are connected to the ends of the two rotating rods 111 away from the pivot 13. The number of rotating rods 111 can also be three, four, or more, without further limitation.
[0034] More specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, a connecting piece is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating rod 111 connected to the pivot 13. The connecting piece is sleeved on the pivot 13 and can rotate around the pivot 13, so that the rotating rod 111 is rotatably connected to the pivot 13. Figure 3 As shown, a limiting part 131 is fixedly provided on the pivot 13, and limiting parts 131 are provided at both ends of the connecting member along the axial direction. The limiting parts 131 are used to limit the connecting member and restrict the displacement of the connecting member in the axial direction of the pivot 13, preventing the first rotating part 11 or the second rotating part 12 from falling off the pivot 13. In this embodiment, a protrusion is welded onto the pivot 13 as a limiting part 131 by spot welding, and the protrusion is located at both ends of the connecting member along the axial direction, respectively limiting the displacement of the connecting member in the axial direction of the pivot 13 from two directions.
[0035] Preferably, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the sun protection device also includes a first limiting member 4, which is detachably connected between every two support members 3 and / or detachably connected between the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12. The first limiting member 4 is used to keep the frame 1 in a first state, preventing the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12 from approaching each other due to wind or other reasons, thereby further improving the stability of the sun protection device. Optionally, in this embodiment, the sun protection device is provided with a set of support members 3 at each end of the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12, each set of support members 3 including two support members 3, and a first limiting member 4 is provided between each set of support members 3 to improve the stability of the sun protection device.
[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sun protection device also includes a second limiting member 5, which is detachably connected to the support member 3 and the first rotating part 11 and / or the second limiting member 5 is detachably connected between the support member 3 and the second rotating part 12. The second limiting member 5 is used to improve the connection stability between the support member 3 and the first rotating part 11 or the second rotating part 12.
[0037] Specifically, multiple insertion sleeves are provided on the support member 3, the first rotating part 11, and the second rotating part 12. The first limiting member 4 and the second limiting member 5 are both inserted into the insertion sleeves. Installing the first limiting member 4 or the second limiting member 5 by insertion is more convenient and labor-saving than screwing or snap-fitting, and the connection effect can meet the requirements for improving the stability of the sun protection device. Taking the first limiting member 4 located between two support members 3 as an example... Figure 2 or Figure 3 As shown, each of the two support members 3 is provided with a plug-in sleeve at the same height. The length of the first limiting member 4 is equal to the distance between the two support members 3, and both ends of the first limiting member 4 are provided with plug-in ends. The plug-in ends of the first limiting member 4 are inserted into the plug-in sleeves on the support members 3.
[0038] Preferably, the support member 3 includes a support rod and a base. One end of the support rod is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and the other end of the support rod is inserted into the base. The base further improves the stability of the sun protection device, and when the sun protection device is not in use, the base can be removed from the support rod, reducing the space occupied by the sun protection device.
[0039] In some special applications or during temporary handling, gas cylinders are typically placed at an angle on a trolley to maintain stability. For example, such as... Figure 1 or Figure 2As shown, the frame 1 is set at an angle to the horizontal plane. The shading space formed when the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12 are switched to the first state can adapt to the tilt angle of the gas cylinder placed on the trolley, thereby improving the sunshade effect of the sun protection device. Specifically, the support members 3 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the uprights 112 of the first rotating part 11 and the uprights 112 of the second rotating part 12, respectively, and the support members 3 extend vertically downward in the vertical direction. The ends of the multiple support members 3 away from the frame 1 are on the same horizontal plane, so that the sun protection device can be stably placed on the ground. The tilt angle of the frame can be set according to the tilt angle of the gas cylinder, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0040] Optionally, the support member 3 is hinged to the frame 1. When the sun protection device is not in use, the support member 3 can be retracted and folded into the frame 1, further reducing the space occupied by the sun protection device.
[0041] Preferably, the flexible shading component 2 is a shading cloth or a sunshade net. The shading cloth or sunshade net has a good shading effect and has the advantages of being lightweight, easy to install, and low in cost.
[0042] In this embodiment, the frame 1, support 3, pivot 13, first limiting member 4 and second limiting member 5 of the sun protection device can all be made of materials commonly found on the construction site, such as plain round steel bars, and can be welded and processed, making it relatively easy to obtain materials.
[0043] Taking the application of this sun protection device to a gas cylinder as an example, the steps for using the sun protection device are as follows: 1. Manually switch the frame 1 to the first state where the first rotating part 11 and the second rotating part 12 are set at an angle; 2. Place the sun protection device on the ground near the gas cylinder or fix it on the trolley where the gas cylinder is placed; 3. Install the first limiting member 4 and the second limiting member 5 at the designed position; 4. When the sun protection device is not in use, remove the first limiting member 4 and the second limiting member 5, manually switch the frame 1 to the second state, and when the support member 3 is hinged to the frame 1, fold up the support member 3. When the support member 3 includes a support rod and a base, remove the base and store the sun protection device.
[0044] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here.
