Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of high-level pipe rack technology, specifically relating to a high-level pipe rack operation safety monitoring and early warning device. Background Technology
[0002] The Materials Supply Department is primarily responsible for ensuring the supply of oilfield pipes and fracturing proppant, as well as coordinating regional material supply. Regarding the safety management of storage facilities, especially the operation of elevated pipe racks, regular manual inspections, including visual checks and sound analysis, are conducted to rigorously identify and address potential hazards in key areas. Given the large daily turnover of specialized pipes, some of the dozens of elevated pipe racks and hundreds of storage locations are currently vacant, leading to uneven stress on the rack supports and potential deformation or tilting. Regular manual inspections, such as visual checks or sound analysis, have limitations in coverage and timeliness, making it difficult to quickly and accurately identify uneven stress on the pipe racks. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a faster and safer monitoring and early warning device for the operation of elevated pipe racks. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.
[0027] Example 1
[0028] A high-level pipe rack operation safety monitoring and early warning device, see Figure 1-5 The system includes a base 1, a first high-level pipe rack 2, a second high-level pipe rack 3, a laser displacement sensor 4, a photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5, an audible and visual alarm 6, a laser receiving plate 7, and a power distribution cabinet 8. Two first high-level pipe racks 2 are symmetrically arranged on the base 1, and a second high-level pipe rack 3 is arranged between the two first high-level pipe racks 2. The photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5 and the power distribution cabinet 8 are installed at the lower part of the first high-level pipe racks 2. The audible and visual alarm 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the power distribution cabinet 8. The laser displacement sensor 4 is installed on the base 1 at the lower end of the second high-level pipe rack 3. The laser receiving plate 7 is installed on the upper side of the second high-level pipe rack 3. The laser displacement sensor 4 and the laser receiving plate 7 are on the same straight line perpendicular to the ground.
[0029] The photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5 is connected to the laser displacement sensor 4 and the audible and visual alarm 6 via electrical wires, and the photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5 supplies power to the laser displacement sensor 4 and the audible and visual alarm 6. The photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5, the laser displacement sensor 4, and the audible and visual alarm 6 are all connected to the power distribution cabinet 8 via electrical wires. The power distribution cabinet 8 receives the electrical signal fed back by the laser displacement sensor 4 to control the audible and visual alarm 6. The back of the photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5 is fixedly connected to the first high-level pipe rack 2 (the fixing method can be adhesive bonding or clip fixing). The back of the power distribution cabinet 8 is fixedly connected to the first high-level pipe rack 2 (the fixing method can be adhesive bonding or clip fixing), and the bottom of the power distribution cabinet 8 is fixedly connected to the base 1 (the fixing method can be adhesive bonding or clip fixing). The audible and visual alarm 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the power distribution cabinet 8, and the fixing method is adhesive bonding or clip fixing.
[0030] More specifically, a U-shaped laser displacement sensor base 9 is provided on the base 1 at the lower end of the second high-level pipe rack 3, and the laser displacement sensor 4 is installed inside the U-shaped laser displacement sensor base 9. The U-shaped laser displacement sensor base 9 is fixedly connected to the base 1 at the lower end of the second high-level pipe rack 3 (the fixing method can be adhesive bonding or snap-fit fixing).
[0031] More specifically, the laser receiving plate 7 has an L-shaped structure. The laser receiving plate 7 is made of stainless steel and is used to receive and reflect the laser emitted by the laser displacement sensor 4. The laser receiving plate 7 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the second high-position pipe rack 3 (the fixing method can be adhesive bonding or clip fixing).
[0032] The working principle of the high-level pipe rack operation safety monitoring and early warning device described in this utility model is as follows:
[0033] The photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5 supplies power to the laser displacement sensor 4, the audible and visual alarm 6, and the power distribution cabinet 8. The power distribution cabinet 8 receives the electrical signal fed back by the laser displacement sensor 4 to control whether the audible and visual alarm 6 activates the alarm.
[0034] Under normal circumstances, the laser displacement sensor 4 emits a laser, which hits the laser receiving plate 7. The laser receiving plate 7 reflects the laser back to the laser displacement sensor 4. After the laser displacement sensor 4 receives the reflected laser, it indicates that the second high-level pipe rack 3 is perpendicular to the ground or base 1 and has not tilted or deformed. The power distribution cabinet 8 receives a normal electrical signal and does not activate the audible and visual alarm 6.
[0035] When the second high-level pipe rack 3 tilts or deforms, the laser displacement sensor 4 emits a laser. The laser cannot hit the laser receiving plate 7, and the laser receiving plate 7 cannot receive the laser. This indicates that the second high-level pipe rack 3 is no longer perpendicular to the ground or base 1. The second high-level pipe rack 3 tilts or deforms. The power distribution cabinet 8 receives the electrical signal and activates the audible and visual alarm 6.
[0036] During use, the high-level pipe rack operation safety monitoring and early warning device of this utility model places an oil-specific pipe 10 between the first high-level pipe rack 2 and the second high-level pipe rack 3. Each set of oil-specific pipes 10 requires the first high-level pipe rack 2 and the second high-level pipe rack 3 to be placed at both ends respectively. When there are two second high-level pipe racks 3, a set of laser displacement sensor 4 and laser receiving board 7 can be matched on each second high-level pipe rack 3, and a photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5, an audible and visual alarm 6, and a power distribution cabinet 8 can be installed on the first high-level pipe rack 2 for separate monitoring and early warning.
[0037] The laser displacement sensor 4, photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5, audible and visual alarm 6, and distribution cabinet 8 described in this utility model utilize existing accessories capable of performing the corresponding functions. No limitation is imposed here. The following are examples of manufacturers and models of accessories capable of performing the functions described in this utility model. The laser displacement sensor 4 is manufactured by Shanghai Kedi Industrial Co., Ltd., model KG08-2500-V. The audible and visual alarm 6 is manufactured by Shanghai Kedi Industrial Co., Ltd., model KBJ-02A. The photovoltaic power generation and energy storage device 5 is manufactured by Xikaide, model XKD-100. The distribution cabinet 8 is manufactured by Zhejiang Chint Electric Co., Ltd., model NX10-4030-15.
[0038] The above description, in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the specific implementation of the present invention to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, various simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all such modifications and substitutions should be considered within the protection scope of the present invention.
