Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pressure vessel technology, and in particular to a pressure vessel with a visualization window. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production and scientific research, pressure vessels are crucial equipment for storing and processing high-pressure media. Currently, common pressure vessels with viewing windows suffer from several problems: First, the viewing window is often fixed, requiring complete disassembly for repairs in case of damage or malfunction, which is complex, costly, and severely impacts production efficiency. Second, the viewing window lacks effective protective structures, making it susceptible to breakage under external impact or internal pressure fluctuations, leading to media leakage and potential safety accidents. Third, existing pressure regulation methods within pressure vessels are not flexible enough, making rapid adjustments difficult in case of abnormal pressure, increasing safety hazards. Therefore, we propose a pressure vessel with a viewing window. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a pressure vessel with a visualization window. This invention solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0004] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a pressure vessel with a visual viewing window, comprising a container body, a sealing plate provided in the bottom opening of the container body, a fixed seat provided in the top of the container body, an installation groove provided in the fixed seat, a pressing handle movably connected in the installation groove, a piston block connected to the bottom of the pressing handle via a pressure rod, a channel communicating with the installation groove through a connecting hole in the middle of the fixed seat, the piston block being movably engaged in the channel, a spring sleeved on the pressure rod, a pressure sensor installed on the side of the container body, a stepped groove for installing the viewing window body provided on the outer side of the container body, the viewing window body being installed in a frame, a sealing component provided at the connection between the frame and the stepped groove, and the frame being connected to the container body via detachable bolts.

[0005] In the above scheme, a rubber ring is provided on the outer ring of the piston block.

[0006] In the above scheme, a screw cap is detachably screwed onto the top of the fixing base.

[0007] In the above scheme, the two ends of the spring abut against the bottom wall of the pressing handle and the top of the fixed base, respectively, the pressure rod passes through the connecting hole, and there is a gap between the pressure rod and the connecting hole.

[0008] In the above solution, the sealing assembly includes an inner rubber sealing ring, a middle stainless steel metal retaining ring, an outer rubber sealing gasket, and a sealing adhesive layer between the window body and the container body.

[0009] In the above scheme, the exterior of the window body is covered with an elastic and removable transparent cover.

[0010] In the above scheme, a base is screwed to the bottom of the container body, and a controller and an alarm are installed inside the base.

[0011] The advantages and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model provides a pressure vessel with a visual viewing window. By installing the viewing window body within a frame, and connecting the frame to the vessel body via detachable bolts, the viewing window body becomes detachable. When the viewing window body is damaged, maintenance personnel can directly disassemble the bolts to replace the viewing window body without complex operations on the entire vessel, greatly reducing maintenance difficulty and cost, improving equipment maintenance efficiency, and solving the problem of inconvenient viewing window maintenance. A pressure sensor installed on the side of the vessel body works in conjunction with a controller and alarm in the bottom base. The pressure sensor monitors the internal pressure of the vessel in real time. When the pressure exceeds a set threshold, the controller activates the alarm to alert the operator, enabling real-time monitoring and early warning of the internal pressure of the vessel, thus enhancing the safety of the pressure vessel. A mounting slot is provided on the fixed base, and a pressing handle is movably connected within the mounting slot. The pressing handle is connected to a piston block via a pressure rod, and a spring is fitted on the pressure rod, with a gap between the pressure rod and the connecting hole. When the internal pressure of the container rises abnormally, the operator can press the handle to push down the piston block via the lever, allowing airflow to escape through the gap and thus quickly adjusting the internal pressure. The spring mechanism ensures that the piston block automatically resets after pressure adjustment, maintaining the normal operation of the container and solving the problem of inflexible pressure adjustment.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model is a pressure vessel with a visual viewing window, including a container body 1. A sealing plate 11 is provided in the bottom opening of the container body 1. A fixed seat 12 is provided on the top of the container body 1. An installation groove 13 is provided on the fixed seat 12. A pressing handle 14 is movably connected in the installation groove 13. A piston block 17 is connected to the bottom of the pressing handle 14 through a pressure rod 16. A channel 18 is provided in the middle of the fixed seat 12, which communicates with the installation groove 13 through a connecting hole. The piston block 17 is movably engaged in the channel 18. A spring 15 is sleeved on the pressure rod 16. A pressure sensor 2 is installed on the side of the container body 1. A stepped groove 21 for installing a viewing window body 22 is provided on the outer side of the container body 1. The viewing window body 22 is installed in a frame 23. A sealing component 24 is provided at the connection between the frame 23 and the stepped groove 21. The frame 23 is connected to the container body 1 by a detachable bolt connector 25.

[0019] The container body 1 serves as the basic structure of the entire pressure vessel, used to contain the medium. The bottom sealing plate 11 seals the bottom opening of the container, preventing leakage of the medium from the bottom. The top mounting base 12, mounting groove 13, pressing handle 14, pressure rod 16, piston block 17, spring 15, and other structures together constitute the pressure regulating device. When the internal pressure of the container rises abnormally, the operator presses the pressing handle 14, causing the pressure rod 16 and piston block 17 to move downwards, allowing the airflow inside the container to be discharged through the gap between the pressure rod 16 and the connecting hole, thus achieving pressure regulation. After pressure regulation, the spring 15 can push the pressing handle 14 and piston block 17 to reset. The pressure sensor 2 mounted on the side is used to monitor the internal pressure of the container in real time and transmit the data to the controller 28 in the base 27. The stepped groove 21, viewing window body 22, frame 23, sealing assembly 24, and bolted connector 25 constitute the visualization viewing window structure. The viewing window body 22 is installed in the frame 23 and is detachably connected to the container body 1 by bolted connector 25, facilitating the installation and maintenance of the viewing window. The sealing component 24 ensures the sealing performance between the viewing window and the container body.

[0020] In the above scheme, a rubber ring is provided on the outer ring of the piston block 17. The rubber ring on the outer ring of the piston block 17 can enhance the sealing between the piston block 17 and the channel 18, prevent the medium from leaking from the gap between the piston block 17 and the channel 18 during pressure regulation, and further improve the reliability of the pressure regulating device.

[0021] In the above solution, a cap 19 is detachably screwed onto the top of the fixing base 12. The detachable design of the cap 19 on the top of the fixing base 12 facilitates the installation, maintenance, and replacement of components such as the pressing handle 14 and the spring 15 in the mounting groove 13. When these components malfunction, only the cap 19 needs to be removed for operation, reducing maintenance difficulty.

[0022] In the above scheme, the two ends of the spring 15 abut against the bottom wall of the pressing handle 14 and the top of the fixing base 12, respectively. The pressure rod 16 passes through the connecting hole, and there is a gap between the pressure rod 16 and the connecting hole. The abutting design at both ends of the spring 15 ensures that the spring 15 can provide a restoring force for the pressing handle 14 and the piston block 17. The gap between the pressure rod 16 and the connecting hole is the channel for airflow during pressure adjustment. The reasonable gap design ensures the smoothness and accuracy of pressure adjustment.

[0023] In the above scheme, the sealing assembly 24 includes an inner rubber sealing ring, a middle stainless steel metal retaining ring, an outer rubber sealing gasket, and a sealing adhesive layer between the viewing window body 22 and the container body 1. The multi-layered structure of the sealing assembly 24, with the inner rubber sealing ring, the middle stainless steel metal retaining ring, the outer rubber sealing gasket, and the sealing adhesive layer working together, enhances the sealing performance between the viewing window and the container body from multiple levels. The rubber sealing ring and rubber sealing gasket have good elasticity, enabling them to tightly fit the contact surface and prevent media leakage. The stainless steel metal retaining ring supports and protects the rubber sealing ring and sealing gasket, improving the durability of the sealing assembly. The sealing adhesive layer further fills tiny gaps, ensuring a sealing effect.

[0024] In the above solution, a flexible and detachable transparent cover 26 is fitted over the outside of the window body 22. The transparent cover 26, fitted over the outside of the window body 22, effectively prevents the window body 22 from being damaged by external impacts. Its elastic design allows it to better absorb impact forces, and its detachable design facilitates timely replacement when the cover is damaged, providing reliable protection for the window body 22.

[0025] In the above scheme, a base 27 is screwed to the bottom of the container body 1, and a controller 28 and an alarm 29 are installed inside the base 27. The base 27 at the bottom of the container body 1 is connected by a screw connection, which facilitates installation and disassembly. The controller 28 inside the base 27 is used to receive pressure data transmitted by the pressure sensor 2 and analyze and judge it according to a preset threshold. When the pressure exceeds the threshold, the controller 28 controls the alarm 29 to sound an alarm, reminding the operator to take appropriate measures, thus ensuring the safe operation of the pressure vessel.

[0026] Working principle:

[0027] This type of pressure vessel with a viewing window mainly involves pressure monitoring, pressure regulation, window sealing, and protection during operation. Regarding pressure monitoring, the pressure sensor 2 monitors the pressure inside the vessel body 1 in real time and transmits the pressure data to the controller 28 within the base 27. The controller 28 processes and analyzes the data. When the pressure value exceeds a preset threshold, it immediately controls the alarm 29 to issue an audible and visual alarm signal, alerting the operator to abnormal pressure inside the vessel. During pressure regulation, if the operator detects an alarm or learns of an abnormal increase in internal pressure through other means, they can manually press the pressing handle 14 in the mounting slot 13 on the fixed base 12. The pressing handle 14 drives the piston block 17 downwards via the pressure rod 16. Due to the gap between the pressure rod 16 and the connecting hole in the middle of the fixed base 12, high-pressure gas or liquid inside the vessel body 1 can be discharged through this gap, thereby reducing the internal pressure of the vessel. When the pressure drops to a certain level, the operator releases the pressing handle 14. Under the elastic force of the spring 15, the pressing handle 14, the pressure rod 16, and the piston block 17 automatically reset, stopping the pressure adjustment. Regarding the viewing window, the viewing window body 22 is installed inside the frame 23, which is detachably connected to the stepped groove 21 on the outside of the container body 1 via bolts 25. The sealing assembly 24 at the connection between the frame 23 and the stepped groove 21 forms a multi-layered sealing structure through an inner rubber sealing ring, a middle stainless steel metal retaining ring, an outer rubber sealing gasket, and a sealing adhesive layer between the viewing window body 22 and the container body 1. This ensures the sealing between the viewing window and the container body, preventing media leakage. Simultaneously, the elastic, detachable transparent protective cover 26 fitted outside the viewing window body 22 effectively protects it from external impacts, extending its service life. Furthermore, the screw cap 19 above the fixed base 12 and the rubber ring around the piston block 17 also improve the performance and reliability of the pressure vessel from different aspects.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is 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 should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
