The liquid nitrogen storage device has an outlet and a sealing valve. The buffer tank includes an outer buffer box and an inner buffer box, with a buffer cavity inside the inner buffer box. The inlet pipe is connected to the buffer cavity, and multiple buffer plates are installed inside the buffer cavity. The buffer plates are fixedly connected to the inner buffer box.

[0004] In practical use, it was found that during the operation of traditional equipment, it is difficult for operators to intuitively obtain key parameters such as liquid nitrogen pressure and valve ball status. Frequent shutdowns for inspection or the use of additional testing equipment are required, which not only reduces work efficiency but also increases the complexity of operation and labor intensity. Therefore, we have proposed a liquid nitrogen filling machine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this application is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the difficulty in intuitively obtaining key parameters like liquid nitrogen pressure and valve ball status, the need for frequent shutdowns for inspection or the use of additional testing equipment, which not only reduces work efficiency but also increases operational complexity and labor intensity. Therefore, a liquid nitrogen filling machine is proposed.

This enables flexible adaptation of pressure parameters under different injection scenarios.
[0011] A further configuration of this application is as follows: the indicating mechanism includes a pointer, a dial, and scale values.

This enables a visual display of the pressure status, facilitating operators to quickly judge the operating status of the equipment.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution and by setting up a controller, the controller can receive and process the pressure sensor signals.
[0019] A further feature of this application is that two support frames are fixedly installed at the bottom of the injection machine casing, and the liquid outlet pipe is located between the two support frames.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a support frame, the support frame can provide stable support for the equipment, avoid the equipment displacement caused by vibration during the grouting process, and ensure operational stability.
[0021] The beneficial effects of this application are:
[0022] (1) Through the cooperation of valve ball, spring, slide and pressure sensor, when the operator injects liquid nitrogen into the filling machine housing through the filling pipe, the liquid nitrogen enters the housing and generates pressure on the right side of valve ball, which can push valve ball to slide to the left. The spring is compressed accordingly. The pressure sensor can transmit the real-time pressure signal to the controller, which can realize accurate monitoring of liquid nitrogen pressure, so that the operator can grasp the system pressure status in time and prevent safety hazards caused by abnormal pressure.

It can realize the visual display of pressure status, which is convenient for operators to quickly judge the operating status of the equipment.
[0024] (3) By cooperating with the knob, screw and slide, when it is necessary to adjust the pressure threshold according to the injection requirements, turn the knob to drive the screw to rotate, the screw will push the slide to slide to the right in the machine housing, change the initial compression degree of the spring, thereby adjusting the pressure value required to open the valve ball, so as to achieve the purpose of flexibly adapting the pressure parameters under different injection scenarios.

[0033] Specifically, the monitoring mechanism includes a pressure sensor 301 and a spring 302. The pressure sensor 301 is installed on the right side of the slide block 3, and the spring 302 is fixedly installed on the left side of the valve ball 2. The left end of the spring 302 is adapted to the pressure sensor 301.
[0034] Specifically, the adjustment mechanism includes a screw 5 and a knob 501. The screw 5 is threadedly installed on the left side of the injection machine housing 1. The right end of the screw 5 extends into the injection machine housing 1. The right end of the screw 5 is adapted to the left side of the slide block 3. The knob 501 is provided on the left end of the screw 5.
[0035] Specifically, the indicating mechanism includes a pointer 601, a dial 7, and a scale value 701. The pointer 601 is mounted on the rotating shaft 6 and is located outside the function box 4. The dial 7 is mounted on the top of the function box 4, and the rotating shaft 6 is located inside the dial 7. The scale value 701 is set on the inner wall of the dial 7, and the pointer 601 is matched with the scale value 701.
[0036] Specifically, the gear mechanism includes a rack plate 801 and a gear 802. The rack plate 801 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the rear side of the plate hole 8. The gear 802 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 6. The gear 802 is located in the function box 4. The rack plate 801 and the gear 802 mesh with each other. A connecting mechanism is provided between the rack plate 801 and the valve ball 2.
[0037] Specifically, the connecting mechanism includes a connecting rod 201 and a connecting plate 202. The connecting rod 201 is fixedly installed on the right side of the valve ball 2. The right end of the connecting rod 201 extends to the outside of the filling machine housing 1. The filling pipe 101 is located below the connecting rod 201. The connecting plate 202 is fixedly installed on the right end of the rack plate 801. The left side of the connecting plate 202 is fixedly connected to the right end of the connecting rod 201.
[0038] Specifically, a controller is installed on the front side of the injection machine housing 1, and the controller is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 301.
[0039] Specifically, two support frames 9 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the injection machine casing 1, and the liquid outlet pipe 102 is located between the two support frames 9.
[0040] In this application, during use, the operator first injects liquid nitrogen into the casing 1 of the filling machine through the filling pipe 101. After the liquid nitrogen enters the casing, it generates pressure on the right side of the valve ball 2, which pushes the valve ball 2 to slide to the left. The spring 302 on the left side of the valve ball 2 is compressed accordingly. The left end of the spring 302 contacts the pressure sensor 301 on the right side of the slide block 3 and generates pressure. The pressure sensor 301 can transmit the real-time pressure signal to the controller, which can realize accurate monitoring of the liquid nitrogen pressure, so that the operator can keep abreast of the system pressure status and prevent safety hazards caused by abnormal pressure. At the same time, when the valve ball 2 moves to the left, it can drive the connecting plate 202 to move to the left synchronously through the connecting rod 201. The connecting plate 202 pulls the rack plate 801 to slide in the plate hole 8. The rack plate 801 meshes with the gear 802 to drive the rotating shaft 6 to rotate. The pointer 601 on the rotating shaft 6 rotates with the rotating shaft 6 in the dial 7. The scale value 701 pointed to by the pointer 601 can intuitively reflect the displacement of the valve ball 2. The volume indirectly reflects the liquid nitrogen pressure, enabling visual display of the pressure status and facilitating quick assessment of equipment operation by operators. When the pressure threshold needs adjustment based on injection requirements, rotating knob 501 rotates screw 5. Since screw 5 is threadedly connected to the left side of the injection machine housing 1, screw 5 pushes slide block 3 to slide to the right within the housing, changing the initial compression of spring 302 and thus adjusting the pressure value required to open valve ball 2. This allows for flexible adaptation of pressure parameters to different injection scenarios. When the liquid nitrogen pressure reaches the set threshold, valve ball 2 is fully pushed open, separating from the outlet pipe 102, allowing liquid nitrogen to flow steadily out through the outlet pipe 102 for injection. When the pressure is below the threshold, spring 302 pushes valve ball 2 back to its original position, closing the outlet pipe 102 and stopping injection, ensuring precise control of the injection volume. The two support frames 9 at the bottom provide stable support for the equipment, preventing displacement due to vibration during injection and ensuring operational stability.
