Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of explosion-proof technology for water pressure testing, specifically, to a protective explosion-proof device for water pressure testing. Background Technology

[0002] Pressure testing is a crucial method for verifying the strength and sealing of pressure-bearing components such as equipment and pipelines. However, the potential risks during high-pressure testing cannot be ignored, making protective and explosion-proof measures essential. The purpose of protection is to ensure personnel safety and equipment integrity. High-pressure water flow has tremendous impact force; in the event of a leak or rupture, the splashing water can cause cuts and impact injuries. If a high-pressure component suddenly ruptures, flying fragments can also endanger nearby personnel. Protective devices such as guardrails and protective covers can effectively isolate dangerous areas, prevent direct contact with personnel, and reduce the risk of accidental injury. The purpose of explosion-proof measures is to prevent explosions caused by uncontrolled pressure. When the test pressure exceeds the equipment's tolerance limit, or if the equipment has defects, it may trigger a violent explosion, causing significant casualties and property damage. Explosion-proof measures include using explosion-proof testing equipment, installing safety valves and pressure sensors, monitoring pressure changes in real time, and immediately releasing pressure in case of overpressure to prevent a continuous rise in pressure leading to an explosion, ensuring a safe and controllable testing process.

[0003] A search revealed that CN216667282U discloses a protective explosion-proof device for water pressure testing of concrete conveying hoses. The device comprises a base plate with legs fixedly welded to both ends on one side surface, an inclined rod fixedly connected to one end of the other side surface, a support plate fixedly welded to one end of the inclined rod, a lower semi-cylinder fixedly welded to the surface of the base plate, a hinge seat fixedly connected to one side surface of the lower semi-cylinder, an upper semi-cylinder hinged to the surface of the hinge seat, and the surface of the upper semi-cylinder slidably connected to the surface of the lower semi-cylinder. Semi-circular plates are fixedly connected to both ends of the lower and upper semi-cylinders, with a semi-circular through hole at the center of the surface of each semi-circular plate. A handle is fixedly welded to one side surface of the upper semi-cylinder. This design significantly improves ease of use and stability, ensuring safety and efficiency.

[0004] The aforementioned protective explosion-proof device for water pressure testing of concrete conveying hoses adopts a hinged upper and lower semi-cylinder structure. The hinged components require manual operation to engage. However, under high-pressure testing conditions, manual operation is inefficient and cannot quickly achieve a seal. Furthermore, manual engagement is prone to errors that can lead to incomplete sealing and leakage risks. Utility Model Content

[0036] The inner buckle assembly 2 also includes a toothed ring 24, which is rotatably connected to the outside of the inner cylinder 11. The toothed ring 24 is in contact with the toothed disc 232 and is meshed and rotatably connected.

[0037] The inner buckling assembly 2 also includes a push rod 25, the number of push rods 25 is the same as that of the ramp block 241, the push rod 25 is arranged in a ring on the inner wall of the inner cylinder 11, and the push rod 25 has a limit rod 251 fixedly connected in the slots on both sides of the push rod 25. A first spring ring 252 is sleeved on the outer side of the limit rod 251. The inner buckling assembly 2 also includes a side plate 26, the side plate 26 is fixedly connected inside the inner cylinder 11, and the side plate 26 and the limit rod 251 are slidably connected.

[0038] The cover assembly 3 includes a cover cylinder 31, a through groove 32 is provided through the middle of the cover cylinder 31, a first rubber ring 312 is fixedly connected to the outside of the cover cylinder 31, and a slot 311 is provided in an annular shape on the outside of the cover cylinder 31 between the upper and lower first rubber rings 312, with each slot 311 corresponding to the position of the push rod 25.

[0039] This design enables the rapid sealing and assembly of the cover cylinder 31 at the inner cylinder 11, as well as its disassembly.

[0040] Please see Figure 1 The pressure relief assembly 4 includes an inner bracket 41, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through groove 32. A second spring ring 42 is provided on the top of the inner bracket 41. The lower end of the second spring ring 42 is fixedly connected to the inner bracket 41. A pressure relief cover 43 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second spring ring 42. A second rubber ring 432 is fixedly connected to the outside of the pressure relief cover 43.

The pressure relief assembly 4 also includes a magnetic suction piece 431, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressure relief cover 43.

[0041] This design enables automatic release when the water pressure inside the inner cylinder 11 reaches a threshold.

[0042] Working principle:

[0043] First, remove the cover tube 31 and align the outer slot 311 of the cover tube 31 with the push rod 25 to achieve pre-positioning;

[0044] Then, the stepper motor 21 is started to drive the worm 211 to rotate, which in turn causes the worm wheel 231 meshing on the side of the worm 211 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the rotating shaft 23 located inside the worm wheel 231 will drive the gear plate 232 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the gear ring 24 located outside the inner cylinder 11 will rotate synchronously under the meshing action of the gear plate 232. During rotation, the ramp 241 inside the gear ring 24 will contact and squeeze the push rod 25. When the push rod 25 is squeezed, it will be pushed into the slot 311. When multiple sets of push rods 25 are pushed inward synchronously to be inserted into the slot 311, the assembly of the cover cylinder 31 at the inner cylinder 11 can be completed. The first rubber ring 312 located outside the cover cylinder 31 can ensure the sealing of the inner cylinder 11 and the cover cylinder 31 after they are connected.

[0045] Similarly, starting the stepper motor 21 drives the worm gear 211 to reverse, which can cause the ramp 241 to disengage from the push rod 25. The push rod 25 will then retract and reset under the elastic action of the first spring coil 252. Once the push rod 25 disengages from the slot 311, the disassembly of the cover cylinder 31 at the top of the inner cylinder 11 can be completed.

[0046] Specifically, this design includes a pressure relief component 4 located in the through groove 32 at the middle of the cover cylinder 31. When the water pressure in the inner cylinder 11 reaches the threshold, the pressure relief cover 43 will be pushed upward by the elastic action of the second spring ring 42. At this time, an opening is formed in the through groove 32 to release pressure. When the water pressure drops to the normal threshold, the second spring ring 42 will drive the pressure relief cover 43 to reset and fasten at the top of the inner bracket 41. The second rubber ring 432 can increase the sealing performance of the pressure relief cover 43 when it is fastened to the cover cylinder 31. The magnetic attraction between the second rubber ring 432 and the top of the cover cylinder 31 can maintain the stability of the pressure relief cover 43 fastened to the top of the cover cylinder 31.

[0047] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
