Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flange condition monitoring technology, specifically a natural gas connection flange condition monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] Natural gas connection flanges are key connecting components in natural gas pipeline systems used to connect pipes, valves, equipment, and other parts. They achieve a sealed connection by bolting two flanges together. They are characterized by easy disassembly and a strong connection, and are widely used in natural gas transportation, storage, and application scenarios.

[0003] Currently, the condition inspection of natural gas connection flanges mainly relies on manual inspection. Although this method is still used in the operation and maintenance of natural gas pipelines, its limitations are becoming increasingly apparent as the industry's requirements for safety and efficiency increase. The inspection efficiency is low, the coverage is limited, and traditional manual inspection relies on sensory judgment, which makes it difficult to identify minor leaks and easily leads to the omission of hidden dangers. Long-term reliance on manual inspection requires a large investment of manpower. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a natural gas connection flange status monitoring device, including a fixed base plate 1. Two fixed vertical plates 2 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of one end of the fixed base plate 1. A positioning component is movably connected to the outer side of the two fixed vertical plates 2. A fixing component is threadedly connected to the end of the positioning component. A detection component is fixedly installed at the top center of the fixing component. A support component is symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the other end of the fixed base plate 1. Two symmetrical natural gas pipelines 10 are installed inside the support component. A flange 11 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the two natural gas pipelines 10 that are close to each other. The flange 11 is connected by matching bolts and is equipped with a sealing gasket.

[0021] Furthermore, the positioning assembly includes two lifting limit frames 3, which are respectively movably sleeved on the outside of two fixed vertical plates 2. The top surface of the lifting limit frame 3 has a through hole matching the fixed vertical plate 2, so that the lifting limit frame 3 can slide up and down along the fixed vertical plate 2. The bottom ends of the two lifting limit frames 3 are fixedly connected to positioning vertical plates 5. Positioning bolts 6 are threadedly connected to the side of the positioning vertical plate 5, and the center of the positioning vertical plate 5 has a threaded hole matching the positioning bolts 6.

[0022] Furthermore, multiple fixing limit holes 4 are equally spaced on the sides of both fixed vertical plates 2, and anti-detachment blocks 19 are fixedly connected to the top of both fixed vertical plates 2. The fixing limit holes 4 and positioning bolts 6 are matched.

[0023] Furthermore, the fixing component includes two adjusting bolts 9, which are threadedly connected to the middle of the end of the lifting limit frame 3 away from the fixed vertical plate 2. The bottom end of the adjusting bolts 9 is rotatably connected to a support frame 8. The support frame 8 and the adjusting bolts 9 can rotate relative to each other. When the support frame 8 rotates, the adjusting bolts 9 can remain stationary. The inner wall of the support frame 8 is fixedly connected to a contact anti-slip pad 13, which is used to increase the friction with the pipeline and make the device more stable.

[0024] Furthermore, the detection assembly includes a mounting plate 12, which is fixedly connected to the top center of two lifting limit frames 3. Two L-shaped mounting brackets 21 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 12. A display controller 15 is fixedly mounted on the top of the two L-shaped mounting brackets 21. An alarm light 16 is signal-connected to one corner of the top of the display controller 15. A buzzer speaker 17 is signal-connected to the center of one side of the display controller 15. A plug-in power supply battery pack 18 is inserted into the center of the side of the display controller 15. A connecting integrated wire 14 is signal-connected to the center of the bottom of the display controller 15. An integrated detection sensor 20 is signal-connected to the bottom of the connecting integrated wire 14. The integrated detection sensor 20 is fixedly installed between two flanges 11. The integrated detection sensor 20 collects relevant data from the flanges 11 according to the corresponding detection principle. The integrated detection sensor 20 mainly includes a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, a stress sensor, and a leakage sensor.

[0025] The pressure sensor is mainly used to detect the change in resistance of the sensing element caused by pressure, converting it into a measurable electrical signal to reflect the internal pressure at the flange 11 connection. The temperature sensor uses the thermoelectric effect of a thermocouple or the resistance change property of a PT100 or other resistance thermometer with temperature to measure temperature. The stress sensor senses the deformation of the bolt under stress through a strain gauge, converting it into an electrical signal to reflect the tightness. The leak sensor judges the sealing condition by detecting gas concentration or sound waves. The integrated wire 14 serves as a signal transmission path, accurately transmitting the electrical signal generated by the integrated detection sensor 20 to the display controller 15, avoiding interference or attenuation during transmission, and ensuring the integrity and accuracy of the signal. The display controller 15... It receives and analyzes electrical signals from sensors, converting them into intuitive digital or graphical information such as temperature and pressure values ​​for easy monitoring. Internally, it has preset normal threshold ranges for various parameters, comparing real-time data with these thresholds to determine if the flange 11 is functioning correctly. The alarm light 16 and the buzzer speaker 17 are controlled by the display controller 15. When the display controller 15 determines that the monitored data exceeds the threshold, it sends a trigger signal to the alarm light 16 and the buzzer speaker 17, causing them to flash and sound, quickly alerting maintenance personnel and preventing further danger. The plug-in power supply battery pack 18 houses all power-consuming components; its pluggable design facilitates timely replacement and prevents monitoring interruptions.

[0026] Furthermore, the support assembly includes two fixed bases 7, which are symmetrically fixed to the top of the fixed base plate 1 at the end away from the fixed vertical plate 2. Each of the two fixed bases 7 has an additional support frame 8 fixedly connected to its top, which supports the bottom of the natural gas pipeline 10.

[0027] When this application embodiment is used:

[0028] When installing the device, first connect the natural gas pipeline 10 and flange 11, and place the integrated detection sensor 20 between the flanges 11, sealing it with a sealing gasket. Then, place the device's fixed base plate 1, fixed vertical plate 2, fixed base 7, and support frame 8 on the outer bottom of the natural gas pipeline 10, ensuring that the contact anti-slip pad 13 inside the support frame 8 contacts the outer bottom of the natural gas pipeline 10. Next, adjust the position of the lifting limit frame 3 on the fixed vertical plate 2. After adjusting the position, insert the positioning bolt 6 through the positioning vertical plate 5 into the fixed position. The lifting limit frame 3 is limited inside the limiting hole 4. Then, the adjusting bolt 9 is rotated and screwed into the lifting limit frame 3, so that the support frame 8 at the bottom of the adjusting bolt 9 is close to the top of the natural gas pipeline 10. The adjusting bolt 9 is continuously rotated so that the contact anti-slip pad 13 inside the support frame 8 contacts the top of the natural gas pipeline 10, thus completing the fixation of the device. Then, the mounting plate 12, display controller 15, alarm light 16, buzzer speaker 17, and plug-in power supply battery pack 18 are installed in sequence. At the same time, the signal of the display controller 15 connected to the integrated wire 14 is connected.
