一.概述General Description
低溫裝卸液系統(tǒng)主要由液源站、槽車或者船舶的軟管、加液臂、閥門、管路系統(tǒng)連接,接口采用 DN25-DN100接口,或于加液槍或于干式接頭或于法蘭連接。加液管路上要求配備拉斷裝置(拉斷閥),當(dāng)連接件尚未脫離,而另一端的車或船或外界移動(dòng)式設(shè)備離開,強(qiáng)大的外力將導(dǎo)致軟管或設(shè)備的損壞、低溫液體的泄漏危機(jī)安全事故時(shí),低溫拉斷裝置在緊急狀況下及時(shí)保護(hù)設(shè)備和人員的安全而緊急關(guān)閉。
下面重點(diǎn)介紹該低溫拉斷裝置的結(jié)構(gòu)原理及應(yīng)用。
The cryogenic liquid loading and unloading system is mainly connected with the hose of the liquid source station, trailer or ship, refueling arm, valve and pipeline system, and its connector adopts DN25-DN100, connecting to fueling nozzle or dry joint or flange type. A breakaway device (breakaway coupling) is required on the refueling pipeline. When the connector is not separated but the other end of the vehicle or boat or external mobile device separated, strong external force will cause the damage to the hose or equipment. When the leakage of cryogenic liquid occurs, the cryogenic breakaway coupling can protect the safety of equipment and personnel in time and turn off emergently.
The structure principle and application of the cryogenic breakaway device are introduced as below

三.結(jié)構(gòu)原理Structure principle
圖 1所示為緊急拉斷裝置的結(jié)構(gòu)圖,主要由兩個(gè)閥體組成,單邊閥體的主體均采用彈簧力關(guān)閉的結(jié)構(gòu),其關(guān)閉力來自于閥瓣彈簧本身。
PICTURE 1 shows the structure of the emergency breakaway device, which is mainly composed of two valve bodies. The main body of the unilateral valve body adopts spring force closing structure, its closing force comes from the disc spring itself.

2.拉斷裝置由兩部分閥體組成,中間為拉斷螺栓,兩邊由獨(dú)立的單個(gè)閥體組成,
主要由殼體、閥瓣、主密封圈、導(dǎo)向板、拉斷螺栓、卡簧組成。
The breakaway device consists of two parts of the valve bodys, the middle is the breakaway bolt, and the two sides are composed of an independent single valve body.It is mainly composed of shell, valve disc, main sealing ring, guide plate, breakaway bolt and circlip.
1)殼體拉斷螺栓連接左右閥體對(duì)接;中間為流通孔,流通面積的設(shè)計(jì)達(dá)到流通
率的要求;導(dǎo)流板作為彈簧和閥芯的支座;拉斷裝置連接形式采用法蘭或焊接方式連接。
Breakaway bolt of shell connects left and right valve bodys, and the middle is the circulation hole, circulation area designed meets the requirements of circulation rate. The guide plate is used as the support of the spring and the valve trim. The connection form of breakaway device adopts flanged or welding type.
2)閥瓣閥瓣為頂針結(jié)構(gòu),設(shè)計(jì)限位裝置,有利于保證良好的密封性,操作簡(jiǎn)單,易于維護(hù)維修,同時(shí)避免閥芯錯(cuò)位不通液現(xiàn)象。
Valve disc is thimble structure with limit device which is designed to ensure good sealing, simple operation, easy maintenance, and avoid the spool dislocation to cause no liquid phenomenon.
3)密封左右閥體中間采用耐低溫 DURABLA密封材料,凹凸面水線設(shè)計(jì),主次二級(jí)密封,此密封材料能有良好的高低溫延伸性,不脆裂,低溫效果好,能保證長(zhǎng)期重復(fù)使用。
DURABLA sealing material is used between the left and right valve body, with concave-convex surface waterline design and primary /secondary sealings. This sealing material has good elongation at high and low temperature, not brittle, no crack,and have long lifetime.
4)閥體在外力拉斷后的密封度為可設(shè)置性,根據(jù)不同的介質(zhì)設(shè)計(jì)不同的密封率,一般LNG、LN2、LAr建議設(shè)置密封率為97%,(使用方也可以自行考慮密封率的問題拆裝閥芯密封墊即可達(dá)到全密封與泄壓要求)。由于低溫液體介質(zhì)在常溫大氣中容易急劇膨脹,導(dǎo)致軟管內(nèi)壓力急劇升高,閥體設(shè)計(jì)為不全密封,允許部分泄壓從而保護(hù)軟管不會(huì)壓力過高而爆裂;液氧類易燃易爆設(shè)置密封率100%,DN65以上大口徑閥體另外設(shè)置了放散孔。
The sealing degree of valve body after being breakaway by external force can be set. Different sealing rates are designed according to different media. Normally, The sealing rate of LNG, LN2 and LAr is recommended to be 97%. (Users can also consider the sealing rate.Full sealing and pressure relief requirements can be achieved by removing and installing the valve core gasket.) Because the low temperature liquid media in the room temperature atmosphere is easy to be expanded rapidly and urgently, resulting in a sharp pressure increase in hose, but the valve body is designed to not fully sealed, allowing partial pressure relief to protect the hose from bursting because of too high pressure. The sealing degree of flammable explosive media like Liquid oxygen must set as 100%. The venting hole has been set on the valve body for the size >=DN65.
3.拉斷機(jī)構(gòu):拉斷機(jī)構(gòu)既要保證“緊急拉斷”時(shí)使設(shè)備能夠自動(dòng)、快速拉斷;又要保證拉斷前有“緩沖期”,避免常規(guī)操作時(shí)出現(xiàn)“拉斷”,影響正常裝卸作業(yè);裝卸鶴管類拉動(dòng)力根據(jù)用戶的要求設(shè)置相應(yīng)的拉斷裝置。
Breakaway Actuator: Breakaway actuator should ensure that the equipment can be automatically and quickly broken away when emergency pulling happened. Also, the actuator must ensure that there is a buffering period before separated, and avoid the occurrence of breakaway during routine operation which may affect normal loading and unloading operations. Corresponding breakway device can be customized according to required pulling force of loading and unloading refueling arm.
1)軟管型拉斷機(jī)構(gòu):主要由雙頭拉斷螺栓或單頭拉斷螺栓、螺母組成。由于金屬軟管都具有較好的柔性,當(dāng)槽車超位時(shí)逐漸出現(xiàn)張緊并在一定范圍內(nèi)延伸的過程,這個(gè)過程提示操作人員“若不采取措施停車,將會(huì)出現(xiàn)緊急拉斷”,軟管的優(yōu)點(diǎn)就在于自身存在緩沖過程。
Hose-type breakaway actuator
It is mainly composed of double head breaking bolt or single head breaking bolt and nut.
Because metal hose has good flexibility, when the trailer is over the position, it gradually tenses and extends within a certain range. This process reminds of the operator that if you do not take measures to stop, there will be an emergency pull break. The advantage of the hose lies in its own buffering process.
四.工作過程Working process
如圖 2所示為緊急拉斷裝置安裝在軟管工藝管線上的示意圖,該套裝卸設(shè)備主要由軟管(金屬軟管)、快速接頭、緊急拉斷裝置和專用截止閥等組成。

1. 拉斷過程
正常裝卸時(shí),軟管處于松弛自由狀態(tài);當(dāng)槽車或船舶馳離,其接口未與站場(chǎng)設(shè)備分離時(shí),軟管張緊并逐漸延伸拉長(zhǎng),超出極限范圍,拉斷螺栓斷裂,兩端閥體分離。分離后,一半閥體留在管線上,另一半閥體留在軟管上,在內(nèi)部彈簧力的作用下實(shí)現(xiàn)密封。
1. Breakaway Process
During normal loading and unloading process, the flexible hose is in a relaxed and free state. When the trailer or ship is driven away and its interface is not separated from the station equipment, the flexible hose tenses and gradually extends and elongates beyond the limit range, the breakaway bolt breaks, and the valve bodies at both ends are separated. After separation, half valve body is left in the line and the other half in the hose, which is sealed by internal spring force.
注意:緊急拉斷后,必須迅速關(guān)閉站線閥門,卸掉管線壓力;在管線排空前不得用外力擠壓閥瓣,否則會(huì)造成介質(zhì)批量泄漏,引發(fā)安全事故。
Note: after emergency breakaway, the valves on station line must be closed quickly to discharge the pipeline pressure. Do not use external force to squeeze the valve disc before pipeline discharged to empty, otherwise it will cause mass leakage of media and serious accident.
2.拉斷后的復(fù)原排空管線后進(jìn)行恢復(fù)工作。
緊急拉斷裝置恢復(fù)前檢查左右閥體中間密封是否損壞,有損壞則卸下主密封座更換閥體主密封或者閥瓣密封墊;否則只需更換新的拉斷螺栓便可?;謴?fù)操作時(shí),用通用螺栓鎖緊兩端閥體,靜置5-10分鐘,然后依次換上拉斷螺栓并擰緊螺母,鎖緊拉斷螺栓的扭力值為4-5Nm,完成恢復(fù)工作。
Recovery after breakaway
Check whether the middle seal between the left and right valve body is damaged before the emergency breakaway device is restored. If there is damage, remove the main seal seat and replace the main seal of the valve body or the valve disc sealing. Otherwise, replace the breakaway bolt. During the recovery operation, lock the valve bodies at both ends with universal bolts, let them standing for 5-10 minutes, and then replace thebreakaway bolts and tighten the nuts with the torque of 4-5Nm and then complete the recovery work.
3.初次進(jìn)液注意事項(xiàng)及故障排除
初次進(jìn)液時(shí),務(wù)必預(yù)冷,待閥體輕微結(jié)霜狀態(tài)是先觀察閥體中間連接位置是否有輕微泄露,若有泄露,關(guān)閉進(jìn)液閥門,排出壓力,用二把10mm扳手逐步鎖緊每個(gè)拉斷螺栓,切勿用無法掌握力度的大型活動(dòng)扳手去鎖緊,容易導(dǎo)致螺栓斷裂。
Notes and troubleshooting for initial liquid injection
Be sure do the precooling, when the body is slightly frosted, observe if there is a slight leakage among body connection. If there is any leakage, shut down the liquid inlet valve and discharge the pressure. Use 2 pcs of10 mm wrenches gradually lock each snap bolt, do not use large adjustable wrench with no grip to tighten, it will cause the bolt fracture.
