Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas cylinder handling technology, specifically, to a gas cylinder protective shell that facilitates the handling of gas cylinders. Background Technology

[0002] A gas cylinder is a portable pressure vessel with a bottle-shaped main structure, typically filled with gas (compressed gas, liquefied gas, dissolved or adsorbed gas, etc.). Gas cylinders have a wide range of applications, almost indispensable in both production and daily life. As a pressure-bearing device, a gas cylinder poses an explosion hazard, and its contained medium is generally flammable, explosive, toxic, or highly corrosive. Furthermore, its operating environment is more complex and harsher than that of other pressure vessels due to its mobility, repeated filling, non-fixed personnel, and changing environmental conditions. Once a gas cylinder explodes or leaks, it often leads to fires or poisoning, or even catastrophic accidents, causing severe property damage, casualties, and environmental pollution.

[0003] Gas cylinders contain compressed gas. During handling and transportation, the cylinders are easily subjected to external impacts, causing the gas inside to shake. Furthermore, the cylinder valves are prone to leakage during impacts, leading to subsequent gas leaks. Different shaped protective shells are required when transporting gas cylinders of different lengths and shapes, which increases the cost of transporting the cylinders. Utility Model Content

[0029] like Figures 1-5As shown, it illustrates a gas cylinder protective shell that facilitates the handling of gas cylinders in one embodiment of the present invention, including: a roller 1, a protective shell body 2 fixedly installed on the upper end of the roller 1, a base plate 5 fixedly installed on the inner bottom end of the protective shell body 2, and a shock-absorbing belt 6 fixedly installed on the lower end of the base plate 5.

[0030] The first air column bag 14 is fixedly installed inside the upper part of the protective shell body 2. The rear end of the first air column bag 14 is fixedly installed with a second air column bag 15. The upper end of the second air column bag 15 is fixedly installed with an air inlet pipe 16. The upper end of the air inlet pipe 16 is fixedly installed with a first adsorption ring 17. The upper part of the air inlet pipe 16 is fixedly connected with a conveying pipe 18, and the lower end of the conveying pipe 18 is fixedly installed with an air outlet pipe 19. The outer wall of the air outlet pipe 19 is fixedly installed with a second adsorption ring 20. The upper part of the conveying pipe 18 is fixedly installed with a connecting pipe 21.

[0031] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, handles 3 are fixedly installed on both sides of the outer wall of the protective shell body 2, and sliding grooves 4 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the protective shell body 2.

[0032] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first air column bag 14 and the second air column bag 15 have the same structure. The inner side of the first air column bag 14 is arc-shaped, and the outer side of the first air column bag 14 fits the inner wall of the protective shell body 2. The first air column bag 14 and the second air column bag 15 are symmetrically installed on the upper part of the inside of the protective shell body 2 with the interior of the protective shell body 2 as the center reference.

[0033] For example, such as Figure 5 As shown, the delivery pipe 18 is annular in shape, the outlet pipe 19 and the inlet pipe 16 are interlocked, and the first adsorption ring 17 and the second adsorption ring 20 are adsorbed together.

[0034] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, there are four rollers 1, and a placement space is provided at the lower end of the base plate 5. The shock-absorbing belt 6 is made of silicone and is fixedly installed inside the placement space.

[0035] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the upper cross-section of the handle 3 is triangular. The handle 3 is symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the protective shell body 2 with the protective shell body 2 as the center reference. The sliding groove 4 is symmetrically installed on the inner wall of the protective shell body 2 with the interior of the protective shell body 2 as the center reference. There are four sliding grooves 4.

[0036] In some examples, the protective shell body 2 is the core container, with an internal gas cylinder storage area. A handle 3 is installed at the outer end for manual pushing. An array of shock-absorbing strips 6 is installed at the lower end of the base plate 5 to buffer transport vibrations. Rollers 1 are added to the lower end of the protective shell body 2 to enable overall structural movement. The transport gas cylinder is placed inside the protective shell body 2. A handle 3 is added to the outer end of the protective shell body 2, allowing it to be pushed and moved. A sliding groove 4 and a slider 12 form a sliding connection. The height of the gas cylinder is adjusted via a placement plate 11. When the gas cylinder is placed into the protective shell body 2... During operation, the gas cylinder is protected by air column bags. The staff inflates the air column bags. The first air column bag 14 and the second air column bag 15 are symmetrically arranged and inflated through the air inlet pipe 16.

[0038] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, the buffer rod 8 is symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the first support plate 9 with the first support plate 9 as the center reference. The first support plate 9 has the same structure as the second support plate 10. The placement plate 11 is circular in shape. The slider 12 is symmetrically installed on the front and back sides of the placement plate 11 with the placement plate 11 as the center reference. The slider 12 and the sliding groove 4 form a sliding connection.

[0039] In some examples, the protective shell body 2 has a pre-set sliding groove 4 inside, symmetrically arranged on both sides. Slider 12 is added to both sides of the placement plate 11. The slider 12 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 4. When placing gas cylinder bodies 13 of different lengths, the internal structure of the protective shell body 2 is adjusted. The PLC controller drives the lifting rod 7 to extend and retract electrically. The lifting rod 7 synchronously pushes the buffer rods 8 on both sides to move linearly. The buffer rods 8 are connected to the placement plate 11 through the first support plate 9. The height of the placement plate 11 is adjusted by the lifting rod 7. The slider 12 moves along the sliding groove 4. The buffer rod 8 has a built-in damper to suppress vibration during the adjustment process. After moving, the gas cylinder body 13 is placed on the upper end of the placement plate 11 for protective transportation of the gas cylinder.
