Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydrogen energy tube bundle container technology, specifically a protective structure for a hydrogen energy tube bundle container. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing global demand for clean energy, hydrogen energy, as a highly efficient and clean secondary energy source, is receiving increasing attention in the energy sector. The storage and transportation of hydrogen is a key link in the development of the hydrogen energy industry, and hydrogen tubular containers, as an important high-pressure gaseous hydrogen transportation and storage device, can achieve efficient transfer of hydrogen between different locations, providing strong support for the widespread application of hydrogen energy.
[0003] Hydrogen tube bundle containers typically store high-pressure hydrogen. During transportation and use, they may be subjected to external forces such as collisions, vibrations, and high temperatures. During transportation, because the sides of hydrogen tube bundle containers lack protective structures and are open, traffic accidents may occur, causing the containers to be impacted. During loading and unloading, improper handling may also cause the containers to be impacted. These external forces may damage the container structure and cause safety accidents such as hydrogen leaks.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a protective structure for hydrogen energy tube bundle containers to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Multiple sets of hydrogen storage tanks are fixedly installed inside the container body. Multiple sets of first folding plates are rotatably installed in the mounting openings on both the front and rear sides of the container body. Second folding plates are rotatably installed in the mounting openings on both the front and rear sides of the container body. Two sets of hinge seats are provided at the upper ends of the multiple sets of first and second folding plates. The two sets of hinge seats at the upper ends of the multiple sets of first and second folding plates are rotatably connected to one end of the attached multiple sets of first and second folding plates. An adjustment assembly for rotating and unfolding the multiple sets of first and second folding plates is provided in the lower end of the container body.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this application, support ribs are fixedly installed in the mounting ports on both the front and rear sides of the main body of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container, and the two sets of support ribs are respectively located on the front and rear sides of multiple sets of hydrogen storage tanks.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the adjustment component includes a drive motor, which is fixedly installed inside the left end of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body. A double-layer synchronous wheel is symmetrically installed front-to-back inside the left end of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body, and a single-layer synchronous wheel is symmetrically installed front-to-back inside the right end of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body. Two sets of first synchronous belts are sleeved on the two sets of double-layer synchronous wheels and the two sets of single-layer synchronous wheels. A second synchronous belt is sleeved on the two sets of double-layer synchronous wheels.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] This utility model provides a protective structure for a hydrogen energy tube bundle container, such as Figure 1-6As shown, the protective structure of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container includes a hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. Hydrogen storage tanks 3 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. Multiple sets of hydrogen storage tanks 3 are fixedly installed inside the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. Multiple sets of first folding plates 12 are rotatably installed in the mounting openings 2 on both the front and rear sides of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. Second folding plates 13 are rotatably installed in the mounting openings 2 on both the front and rear sides of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. Two sets of hinge seats 14 are provided at the upper ends of the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13. The two sets of hinge seats 14 at the upper ends of the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 are rotatably connected to one end of the attached multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13. An adjustment component for rotating and unfolding the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 is provided in the lower end of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1.
[0025] In practical applications, when protection of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container is required, the operator can drive the adjustment component to rotate multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13. Since the upper ends of the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 are rotatably connected to one end of the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 through two sets of hinge seats 14, the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 can be opened in a folded form, reducing the required space. At the same time, after the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 are rotated and closed, they can provide comprehensive protection for the front and rear sides of the main body 1 of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container, significantly enhancing the safety of the main body 1 of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container during transportation and use.
[0026] Support ribs 4 are fixedly installed in the mounting ports 2 on both the front and rear sides of the main body 1 of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container. The two sets of support ribs 4 are located on the front and rear sides of multiple hydrogen storage tanks 3 respectively.
[0027] The support ribs 4 can also strengthen the main body 1 of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container, improve the structural strength of the installation port 2, and further enhance the stability of the entire protective structure.
[0028] The upper inner wall of the main body 1 of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container is bonded with a heat insulation layer 5.
[0029] The heat insulation layer 5 provides heat insulation, avoiding adverse effects on the interior of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container 1 caused by high temperature environment. In addition, the heat insulation layer 5 is preferably made of wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant material, ensuring its stability and reliability during long-term use.
[0030] The adjustment assembly includes a drive motor 6, which is fixedly installed inside the left end of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. Double-layer synchronous pulleys 7 are symmetrically installed front-to-back inside the left end of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1, and single-layer synchronous pulleys 8 are symmetrically installed front-to-back inside the right end of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. Two sets of first synchronous belts 9 are sleeved on the two sets of double-layer synchronous pulleys 7 and the two sets of single-layer synchronous pulleys 8. Second synchronous belts 10 are sleeved on the two sets of double-layer synchronous pulleys 7. Four sets of adjusting screws 11 are rotatably installed inside the left and right ends of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. Four sets of sliding grooves 15 are opened inside the left and right ends of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. Sliding blocks 16 are slidably installed in each of the four sets of sliding grooves 15. The sliding blocks 16 in the four sets of sliding grooves 15 are rotatably connected to the left and right ends of the second folding plate 13 installed at the lower end of the mounting port 2, respectively. The sliding blocks 16 in the four sets of sliding grooves 15 are connected to the four sets of adjusting screws 11 by threads.
[0031] The drive motor 6 is started. The output shaft of the drive motor 6 drives two sets of double-layer synchronous pulleys 7 and the second synchronous belt 10 to rotate. The rotation of the two sets of double-layer synchronous pulleys 7 drives two sets of single-layer synchronous pulleys 8 to rotate through two sets of first synchronous belts 9. At the same time, the rotation of the double-layer synchronous pulleys 7 and the single-layer synchronous pulleys 8 drives four sets of adjusting screws 11 to rotate. The rotation of the four sets of adjusting screws 11 drives four sets of sliding blocks 16 to slide in four sets of sliding grooves 15. Since the four sets of sliding blocks 16 are rotatably connected to the second folding plate 13, the movement of the four sets of sliding blocks 16 drives the second folding plate 13 to rotate. The plate 13 rotates around multiple sets of hinge seats 14, thereby enabling multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 to open in a folded manner. This allows the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 to rotate, open, and fold upwards, reducing the required space. At the same time, after the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 rotate and close, they can provide comprehensive protection for the front and rear sides of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1, significantly enhancing the safety of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1 during transportation and use.
[0032] Multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 are provided with multiple sets of through holes, and both sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 are made of aluminum alloy.
[0033] The choice of aluminum alloy material enables the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 to have good lightness and corrosion resistance while ensuring structural strength, and to adapt to various complex environments. The setting of multiple sets of through holes helps to reduce the overall weight, while facilitating air circulation and reducing wind resistance, thus optimizing the energy consumption of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1 during transportation to a certain extent.
[0034] The inner wall width of the four sets of sliding grooves 15 is the same as the width of the multiple sets of sliding blocks 16.
[0035] The inner wall width of the four sets of sliding grooves 15 is the same as the width of the multiple sets of sliding blocks 16, which ensures the stability of the sliding blocks 16 sliding in the sliding grooves 15, avoids structural failures caused by shaking or misalignment, and further improves the reliability and durability of the entire protective structure.
[0036] Working principle: In use, the operator first starts the drive motor 6. The output shaft of the drive motor 6 starts to rotate, driving the two sets of double-layer synchronous pulleys 7 and the second synchronous belt 10 connected to it to rotate. Since the two sets of double-layer synchronous pulleys 7 and the two sets of first synchronous belts 9 are respectively sleeved on them, the rotation of the two sets of double-layer synchronous pulleys 7 will drive the two sets of single-layer synchronous pulleys 8 to rotate through the two sets of first synchronous belts 9. This rotation is further transmitted to the four sets of adjusting screws 11 connected to the two sets of double-layer synchronous pulleys 7 and the two sets of single-layer synchronous pulleys 8, causing the four sets of adjusting screws 11 to also start to rotate. As the four sets of adjusting screws 11 rotate, the sliding blocks 16 connected to them by threads slide in the two sets of sliding grooves 15 opened at the left and right ends of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1. As the lower end of the sliding block 16 is rotatably connected to the left and right ends of the second folding plate 13 of the protective plate rotatably installed at the lower end of the mounting port 2, the sliding of the sliding block 16 will cause the second folding plate 13 to rotate around the multiple sets of hinge seats 14 as the axis. This causes the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13, which were originally attached to the front and rear sides of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1, to gradually open in a folded form. When the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 rotate open, they slide upward and retract within the two sets of mounting ports 2. When the multiple sets of first folding plates 12 and multiple sets of second folding plates 13 are completely closed, they can fully cover the front and rear sides of the hydrogen energy tube bundle container body 1, forming an effective protective barrier.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
