The second connecting box 22 is fixedly installed at the top of the collecting box 13. The connecting pipe 20 is fixedly connected between the first connecting box 19 and the second connecting box 22. One end of the collecting box 13 is fixedly connected to the exhaust pipe 14. Through the cooperation of the condensing mechanism 13, including the condensing box 5, the first connecting box 19, the second connecting box 22, the connecting pipe 20, and the heat-conducting plate 21, the BOG gas can be condensed and liquefied immediately without storage, which can improve the safety of the device. It can also reuse the reliquefied natural gas, which can improve the practicality of the device.
[0018] In this embodiment, the support rods 25 are symmetrically fixed at the bottom of both ends of the protective cover 4. The protective cover 4 is U-shaped. The bottom end of the support rods 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the support 2. The fixing blocks 16 are symmetrically fixed between the top of the storage tank 3 and the inner top wall of the protective cover 4. The protective cover 4 can increase the protection of the storage tank 3, slow down the corrosion rate of the surface of the storage tank 3, and facilitate the improvement of the service life of the storage tank 3.
[0019] In this embodiment, the storage tank 3 is symmetrically and fixedly provided with annular supports 11 at both ends. An inner liner 9 is fixedly installed inside the annular supports 11. An insulation layer 10 is fixedly installed between the inner liner 9 and the inner wall of the storage tank 3. An inlet and an outlet are fixedly connected inside the inner liner 9 and one end of the storage tank 3. The inlet is located above the outlet. The gas dispenser 8 is fixedly installed on the top of the other end of the skid plate 1 at the position corresponding to the outlet and inlet. The insulation layer 10 can maintain the temperature of the liquefied natural gas inside the inner liner 9, which is convenient for storing liquefied natural gas. The gas dispenser 8 is provided for convenient gas dispensing.
[0020] In this embodiment, a compressor 6 is fixedly installed at the top of the condenser box 5. A suction pipe 7 is horizontally fixedly installed inside the top of the inner liner 9. An air hole is opened at the bottom of the inner end of the suction pipe 7. The outer end of the suction pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the inlet of the compressor 6. A longitudinal groove 23 is opened inside one end of the first connecting box 19. The outlet of the compressor 6 is fixedly connected to the longitudinal groove 23 through a connecting pipe. A connecting groove 24 is opened in a matrix inside the other end of the first connecting box 19. A connecting groove 24 is opened inside one end of the second connecting box 22. A connecting pipe 20 is fixedly connected between the longitudinal groove 23 and the bottom connecting groove 24, and between the top connecting groove 24 and the bottom connecting groove 24. The connecting pipe 20 on the right side is fixedly connected to the collection box 13. A heat-conducting plate 21 is fixedly installed on the outside of the connecting pipe 20. A delivery pump 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the condenser box 5. The inlet of 5 is fixedly connected to the collection box 13 through a connecting pipe. A circulation pipe is fixedly installed inside the bottom of the inner tank 9. One end of the circulation pipe is fixedly connected to the outlet of the delivery pump 15. The top and bottom of the same side of the condensing box 5 are respectively fixedly connected to the water outlet 17 and the water inlet 18. The compressor 6 draws BOG gas from the inside of the inner tank 9 through the suction pipe 7 and compresses it. The compressed BOG gas has a high temperature and can be sent into the first connecting box 19 and the longitudinal groove 23, and then diverted into the connecting pipe 20. The BOG gas flows inside the condensing box 5 through the connecting pipe 20 and the connecting groove 24, so that the BOG gas can fully contact the cold water. This facilitates the condensation and liquefaction of the BOG gas through the cooperation of the connecting pipe 20 and the heat conduction plate 21. Finally, it is discharged into the collection box 13 to collect the reliquefied natural gas. The delivery pump 15 can discharge the reliquefied natural gas into the storage tank 3 for reuse.
[0021] When using this LNG skid-mounted refueling unit for LNG refueling stations, the refueling machine 8 is fixedly connected to the high-pressure cryogenic pump via a pipeline, and the low-pressure high-temperature pump is fixedly connected to the outlet of the storage tank 3 via a tank booster vaporizer, facilitating refueling via the refueling machine 8. Pressure gauges and level gauges are installed on the storage tank 3 to monitor the LNG level inside. When the compressor 6 pressure is low, a suction pump or similar device can be installed between the compressor 6 and the suction pipe 7 to send BOG gas from the top of the inner liner 9 into the compressor 6. The compressor 6 compresses the BOG gas, increasing its temperature. The compressor 6 then sends the compressed BOG gas into the first connecting box 19 and the longitudinal groove 23. Multiple connecting pipes 20 divert the compressed BOG gas into the subsequent connecting groove 24. The compressed BOG gas is brought into full contact with cold water. The connection pipe 20 and the heat-conducting plate 21 facilitate condensation and liquefaction of the BOG gas. A drain pipe is located at the bottom of the bottom connecting trough 24, with its bottom end positioned inside the collection tank 13. A solenoid valve is installed on the drain pipe. After reliquefaction, the natural gas flows through the drain pipe and the connection pipe 20 into the collection tank 13. The collection tank 13 facilitates the collection of the reliquefied natural gas and maintains its original form. Finally, the reliquefied natural gas is pumped by the delivery pump 15 into the storage tank 3 for reuse. This eliminates the need for BOG gas storage, improving the safety and practicality of the gas filling device. The protective cover 4 enhances the protection of the storage tank 3, slows down its corrosion rate, and extends its service life.

This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
