[0002] With the widespread use of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in urban and rural areas, the traditional gas cylinder delivery and filling model has gradually exposed many problems. First, the traditional model mainly relies on manual labor for the handling, loading, unloading, and filling of gas cylinders, which is inefficient and labor-intensive, increasing labor costs and limiting the improvement of service efficiency. Second, in the delivery process, it is common for individuals to use non-professional vehicles to transport gas cylinders. Such non-standard operations bring serious safety hazards and are very likely to cause safety accidents. Furthermore, the existing fixed gas filling station service network is unevenly distributed, especially for users in remote areas, who face problems such as inconvenience in filling and difficulty in using gas, failing to meet their immediate gas needs.

[0003] The existing liquefied petroleum gas cylinder delivery and filling model has certain defects. It cannot integrate the entire process of cylinder storage, filling, and automated loading and unloading onto the transport vehicle, making it impossible for the transport vehicle to form a mobile filling station. This not only fails to avoid heavy manual handling, thus affecting the efficiency of cylinder loading, unloading, and management, but also affects the filling service radius and flexibility, thereby seriously impacting the user experience of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinder delivery and filling models. These models cannot integrate the entire process from cylinder storage and filling to automated loading and unloading onto a transport vehicle, preventing the vehicle from becoming a mobile filling station.

[0013] Example 1 This utility model provides an inflatable box for an inflatable direct transport vehicle, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes: a transport vehicle body 1, a box 2, a storage rack 3, gas cylinders 4, and an inflation assembly. The transport vehicle body 1 supports the inflation box for the transport vehicle. The box 2 is connected to the transport vehicle body 1 and is made of high-strength steel and heat-insulating and flame-retardant materials. The box 2 is equipped with a front door, two side doors, and a rear door. The storage rack 3 is located on the box 2 and consists of a rigid frame structure composed of four load-bearing columns and eight reinforcing beams, dividing the space into nine independent gas cylinder positions. High-performance anti-static rubber spacers are installed between each gas cylinder position. The bottom of the storage rack 3 is equipped with... Four industrial-grade casters are provided. Gas cylinder 4 is housed in storage rack 3. The inflation assembly includes an inflation equipment storage box 5, an air hose 6, a connecting pipe 7, an air delivery gun 8, and an explosion-proof inflation box 9. The inflation equipment storage box 5 is connected to the main body 2 and is used to store the inflation equipment and control equipment. The air hose 6 is connected to the inflation equipment storage box 5, the connecting pipe 7 is connected to the air hose 6, and the air delivery gun 8 is connected to the connecting pipe 7. The air delivery gun 8 is used to inflate large-capacity master cylinders. The explosion-proof inflation box 9 is connected to the air hose 6 and serves as the final operation point for inflating the user's own gas cylinder 4. The explosion-proof inflation box 9 is internally equipped with… It includes an air gun connector and an exhaust device. Multiple connecting pipes 7 are installed on the air pipe 6, each corresponding to an air gun 8. Two air-filled explosion-proof boxes 9 are installed on the air pipe 6, located at opposite ends of the air pipe 6. It also includes a disassembly assembly, comprising a support member 10, an electric guide rail mechanism 11, a movable part 12, an electric hoist 13, and an adaptive gripper 14. The support member 10 is connected to the housing 2 and can be a support rod. The electric guide rail mechanism 11 is connected to the support member 10 and includes a slider. The slider of the moving guide rail mechanism 11 is fixedly connected to the movable part 12. The movable part 12 is connected to the electric guide rail mechanism 11. The movable part 12 can be a movable frame. The electric hoist 13 is set on the movable part 12. The adaptive gripper 14 is set on the electric hoist 13. The electric hoist 13 drives the adaptive gripper 14 to move in the vertical direction. Multiple support members 10 are set on the electric guide rail mechanism 11. The electric guide rail mechanism 11 is located above the storage rack 3. The movable part 12 is located above the adaptive gripper 14. The electric hoist 13 and the adaptive gripper 14 are set one-to-one.

[0014] By combining the inflation and disassembly components, the entire process of gas cylinder 4, from storage and inflation to automated loading and unloading, can be integrated onto the transport vehicle, making the transport vehicle a mobile inflation station. This not only effectively replaces heavy manual handling, thereby improving the loading, unloading, and management efficiency of gas cylinder 4, but also effectively increases the inflation service radius and flexibility, thus significantly improving the user experience of the equipment.

[0015] In use, first, park the transport vehicle 1 at the target work location, then engage the handbrake and place wheel chocks to ensure vehicle stability. Next, the operator opens the front door of the container 2 to enter the inflation area. The user then safely and securely places the gas cylinder 4 to be inflated into the dedicated slot inside the inflation explosion-proof container 9, ensuring a firm connection between the inflation gun connector and the gas cylinder 4's inlet. Next, close the door of the inflation explosion-proof container 9. At this point, the safety interlock device inside the inflation explosion-proof container 9 automatically activates, ensuring the gas cylinder 4 operates in a sealed and safe state. Then, the operator uses the control device inside the inflation equipment storage box 5 to set the target pressure value for this inflation, and then starts the inflation button. The inflation explosion-proof container 9 begins operation, and the inflation equipment delivers liquefied petroleum gas to the gas cylinder 4 through the gas pipe 6, thus inflating the gas cylinder 4. The operator can monitor the pressure in real time using a pressure gauge. During the inflation process, when the control equipment detects that the pressure of gas cylinder 4 has reached the preset target value, inflation automatically stops. After the pressure stabilizes, the operator disconnects the inflation gun, opens the inflation explosion-proof box 9, and takes out the fully inflated gas cylinder 4. Then, the operator starts the electric guide rail mechanism 11, causing the slider of the electric guide rail mechanism 11 to drive the moving part 12 to move horizontally. The movement of the moving part 12 drives the electric hoist 13 to move synchronously. The movement of the electric hoist 13 drives the adaptive gripper 14 to move synchronously, so that the adaptive gripper 14 moves horizontally to directly above the target gas cylinder 4. Then, the electric hoist 13 lowers the adaptive gripper 14, and then the adaptive gripper 14 automatically adjusts and clamps the gas cylinder 4. Then, the gas cylinder 4 is lifted vertically, and then the electric guide rail mechanism 11 moves the gas cylinder 4 horizontally to the waiting area at the rear of the box 2. Then, the rear door of the box 2 is opened, and the gas cylinder 4 in the waiting area can be removed.

[0016] Specifically, a box 2 is fixedly installed inside the transport vehicle body 1. A storage rack 3 is installed inside the box 2. Multiple gas cylinders 4 are installed inside the storage rack 3. An inflation equipment storage box 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the box 2. Both ends of the inflation equipment storage box 5 are connected to air pipes 6. Multiple connecting pipes 7 are connected to one end of the air pipe 6 of the inflation equipment storage box 5. An air gun 8 is connected to the top of the connecting pipe 7. An inflation explosion-proof box 9 is connected to one end of the air pipe 6 of the inflation equipment storage box 5. An inflation explosion-proof box 9 is connected to the other end of the air pipe 6 of the inflation equipment storage box 5. Multiple support members 10 are fixedly connected inside the box 2. An electric guide rail mechanism 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the support member 10. A movable member 12 is fixedly connected to the slider of the electric guide rail mechanism 11. An electric hoist 13 is fixedly installed inside the movable member 12. An adaptive gripper 14 is fixedly connected to the wire rope of the electric hoist 13.

[0017] Working Principle: In actual use, the transport vehicle 1 is first parked at the target work location. The handbrake is then engaged and wheel chocks are placed to ensure vehicle stability. Next, the operator opens the front door of the container 2 to enter the inflation area. The user then safely and securely places the gas cylinder 4 to be inflated into the dedicated slot inside the inflation explosion-proof box 9, ensuring a firm connection between the inflation gun connector and the gas cylinder 4's inlet. The box door is then closed, automatically activating the safety interlock device inside the box 9 to ensure the gas cylinder 4 operates in a sealed and safe state. The operator then sets the target pressure value for this inflation using the control device inside the inflation equipment storage box 5, and then starts the inflation process. The inflation equipment begins operating, delivering liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) to the gas cylinder 4 through the gas pipe 6, thus inflating the cylinder 4. The operator can monitor the inflation process in real time using a pressure gauge. When the control device detects that the pressure in the gas cylinder 4 has reached the preset target value, inflation automatically stops. After the pressure stabilizes, the operator... Disconnect the inflation gun, open the inflation explosion-proof box 9, and remove the fully inflated gas cylinder 4. Then, the operator activates the electric guide rail mechanism 11, causing the slider of the mechanism to drive the movable part 12 to move horizontally. The movement of the movable part 12 drives the electric hoist 13 to move synchronously, which in turn drives the adaptive gripper 14 to move synchronously. This causes the adaptive gripper 14 to move horizontally directly above the target gas cylinder 4. Next, the electric hoist 13 lowers the adaptive gripper 14, which then automatically adjusts and clamps the gas cylinder 4. Next, the gas cylinder 4 is lifted vertically and then moved horizontally to the unloading area at the rear of the container 2 via the electric guide rail mechanism 11. Then, the rear door of the container 2 is opened, and the gas cylinder 4 is removed from the unloading area. This process integrates the storage, filling, and automated loading and unloading of the gas cylinder 4 onto the transport vehicle, making the transport vehicle a mobile filling station. This not only effectively replaces the heavy manual handling, thereby improving the loading, unloading, and management efficiency of the gas cylinder 4, but also effectively increases the filling service radius and flexibility, thus significantly improving the user experience of the equipment.

[0018] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
