Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of carbon footprint engineering technology, and in particular to a carbon footprint collection device. Background Technology
[0002] With increasing global attention to climate change, carbon footprint monitoring has become a key means of assessing carbon emissions and promoting energy conservation and emission reduction. Accurate carbon footprint data collection is crucial for optimizing energy structures and formulating environmental policies across various sectors, including industrial production and energy consumption. However, existing carbon footprint collection equipment faces several challenges in practical applications: Firstly, traditional equipment often suffers from insufficient sealing, leading to leaks during gas collection and resulting in data inaccuracies. Secondly, the lack of efficient dust filtration and gas storage structures within the equipment allows unfiltered, dust-laden gas to directly enter the detection module, reducing accuracy and causing blockages and damage, increasing maintenance costs. Furthermore, the data display and processing capabilities of existing equipment are relatively slow, failing to meet the demands of real-time monitoring and rapid analysis.
[0003] A search revealed a carbon footprint collection device disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN219421323U. This utility model relates to the field of carbon footprint engineering technology and includes: a collection device body, a display screen on the front of the collection device body, a knob on one side of the front of the collection device body, an upper cover on the top of the collection device body, a detection frame on the top of the upper cover, a second rotating shaft on one side of the top of the detection frame, a top cover on the top of the second rotating shaft, an insertion rod on one side of the bottom of the top cover, and a detection zone cylinder on the inner side of the upper cover. In this carbon footprint collection device, rotating the first screw drives the abutment rod inside the side plate. Simultaneously, the abutment rod is squeezed as the first screw gradually descends, causing the abutment rod to move. At the same time, the abutment rod drives the locking strip to lock the detection zone cylinder, thus preventing the detection zone cylinder from shaking after prolonged use.
[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors have discovered the following drawbacks: While the structure of the device, which uses a rotating first screw to drive the push rod and locking strip to fix the detection zone cylinder, can prevent shaking, disassembly requires operating the screw, making the process cumbersome and affecting maintenance efficiency. It fails to achieve a balance between rapid disassembly and sealing. Furthermore, the device does not mention a replaceable filter element, resulting in insufficient ease of maintenance for easily worn components, which may lead to interruptions in data collection or affect data accuracy.

[0032] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0033] This application discloses a carbon footprint collection device.
[0034] Please see Figure 1 A carbon footprint collection device includes an air inlet pipe 1, a sealing mechanism 2 on one side of the air inlet pipe 1, and a collection mechanism 3 inside the sealing mechanism 2.
[0035] Please see Figures 2 to 5The sealing mechanism 2 includes a sealing housing 201, a first replacement plug 203 and a second replacement plug 204. The left and right sides of the sealing housing 201 are fixedly connected to the air intake pipe 1 through flanges. The first replacement plug 203 and the second replacement plug 204 are respectively threaded to the left and right sides of the sealing housing 201.
[0036] The sealing mechanism 2 also includes a baffle 202, which is fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the sealing housing 201. The inner side of the baffle 202 is provided with a guide groove to limit the sliding range of the movable observation window 301.
[0037] The outer surfaces of the first replacement plug 203 and the second replacement plug 204 are provided with anti-slip textures, and their thread depth matches the wall thickness of the sealing housing 201 to achieve quick disassembly and sealing.
[0038] The collection mechanism 3 includes a main collection component 31, a secondary collection component 32, and a transition block 306. The main collection component 31 and the secondary collection component 32 are arranged symmetrically around the transition block 306, and the transition block 306 is used to fix the main collection component 31 and the secondary collection component 32. Both the main collection component 31 and the secondary collection component 32 include a collection tube 304 and a filter element 305. The collection tube 304 is movably installed inside the sealed housing 201, and the filter element 305 is disposed inside the collection tube 304 for filtering dust. The aperture of the collection tube 304 matches the diameter of the first replacement plug 203 and the second replacement plug 204 to achieve a sealed connection.
[0039] The main acquisition component 31 and the auxiliary acquisition component 32 also include a movable observation window 301, a data processing module 302 and a gas acquisition module 303; the movable observation window 301 is movably connected to the inside of the sealed housing 201, the data processing module 302 is fixedly installed on one side of the movable observation window 301, and the gas acquisition module 303 is located in the acquisition tube 304 and electrically connected to the data processing module 302; the movable observation window 301 is made of a high-temperature resistant glass plate, and a sealing ring is provided on its contact surface with the sealed housing 201.
[0040] One end of the collection tube 304 is connected to the air inlet tube 1, and an annular sealing ring is provided at the connection point; a sealed cavity is formed between the movable observation window 301 of the main collection component 31 and the auxiliary collection component 32 and the sealed housing 201, and the sealed cavity is used to temporarily store the gas to be detected.
[0041] The data processing module 302 includes a data display screen 3021, which is embedded on the outer surface of the movable observation window 301 and is used to display gas composition and concentration data in real time.
[0042] Filter element 305 is a replaceable multi-layer composite filter, including an activated carbon layer, a HEPA filter layer and a metal screen layer. Filter element 305 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the collection tube 304 via a snap-fit structure.
[0043] Further explanation is needed: The core function of the sealing mechanism 2 is to construct a sealed gas transmission and collection space to ensure the sealing and reliability of the carbon footprint collection process. It forms the main channel for gas flow through the flange connection between the sealing shell 201 and the air inlet pipe 1. The first replacement plug 203 and the second replacement plug 204 on the left and right sides are connected by threads, which facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the collection mechanism 3 and enables a sealed connection through the collection pipe 304 with matching aperture to prevent gas leakage. The baffles 202 at the front and rear ends are provided with guide grooves to limit the sliding range of the movable observation window 301. Together with the sealing ring, they ensure the sealed contact between the observation window and the shell to avoid external impurities or gas from interfering with the collection process.
[0044] The main function of the gas collection mechanism 3 is to filter, temporarily store, detect, and provide data feedback for the gas. The main and auxiliary collection components 31 and 32 are symmetrically arranged with the adapter block 306 to expand the gas collection coverage and improve efficiency. The filter element 305 in the collection tube 304 filters dust through a multi-layer composite filter, activated carbon layer, HEPA filter layer, and metal screen layer to ensure the cleanliness of the gas being tested. The movable observation window 301 and the sealed outer shell form a closed cavity for temporarily storing the gas to be tested. The high-temperature resistant glass material facilitates external observation of the internal state. The gas collection module 303 collects gas composition data in real time, which is analyzed by the data processing module 302 and displayed in real time on the data display screen 3021, realizing the visualization and intelligence of the detection process.
[0045] The implementation principle of a carbon footprint collection device in this application is as follows:
[0046] First, the gas to be tested enters the sealing mechanism 2 through the inlet pipe 1. The sealing shell 201 is fixedly connected to the inlet pipe 1 through a flange to form the main channel for gas flow. The first replacement plug 203 and the second replacement plug 204 on the left and right sides are threadedly connected to the sealing shell 201 and are sealed together with the aperture of the collection tube 304 to ensure that the gas is transmitted in a closed environment and avoids external interference.
[0047] Secondly, after the gas enters the collection mechanism 3, the main collection component 31 and the auxiliary collection component 32 are symmetrically arranged around the adapter block 306 to expand the gas coverage area. The filter element 305 in the collection tube 304 filters dust and other impurities in the gas layer by layer through the activated carbon layer, HEPA filter layer and metal screen layer to ensure that the gas entering the detection stage is clean.
[0048] Next, the filtered gas enters the sealed cavity formed by the movable observation window 301 and the sealed housing 201 for temporary storage. The movable observation window 301 is made of high-temperature resistant glass plate, and the sealing ring on the contact surface is tightly fitted with the sealed housing 201. Together with the annular sealing ring at the connection of the collection tube 304, it ensures that the gas to be tested is stably stored in a sealed environment, providing conditions for subsequent testing.
[0049] Next, the gas acquisition module 303 acquires the composition and concentration data of the temporarily stored gas in real time, and transmits the data to the data processing module 302 via electrical connection. After the data processing module 302 analyzes and processes the data, it displays it in real time through the display screen embedded on the outside of the movable observation window 301, realizing the visual monitoring of gas composition.
[0050] Finally, during equipment maintenance, the anti-slip texture on the outer surface of the first replacement plug 203 and the second replacement plug 204 can be used for quick disassembly to expose the internal collection tube 304 and filter element 305. The filter element 305 is connected to the inner wall of the collection tube 304 through a snap-fit structure, which allows for easy replacement of aged or clogged filters, ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment and maintaining efficient dust filtration and gas detection performance.
[0051] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
