用于存储液体和气体燃料的系统和方法
相关申请的交叉引用
本申请要求于2016年10月11日提交的美国临时申请序列号为No.62/406,606的美国临时申请的优先权，其通过引用整体并入本文。
技术领域
本发明一般涉及燃料的存储和分配，更具体地说，涉及一种用于以升高和模块化的方式存储液体和气体燃料的系统和方法。
背景技术
因为越来越多的汽车在道路上投入使用以满足不断增长的人口的运输需求，所以全球对燃料存储和分配站的需求量很大。然而，传统的燃料分配和服务站的建设和运营是漫长、昂贵和耗费资源的。必须委任对预期需求进行调查和研究，该站必须设计成足以满足预期需求的配置，必须提供许可证，并且在可以泵送单加仑汽油之前必须开始且完成漫长的施工过程。
尽管有关于其建设和运营的资源消耗承诺，但是传统的燃料分配站仍然在环境、安全和维护方面存在许多缺点。首先，燃料分配站被归类为具有潜在高环境影响的对象。例如，汽车燃料通常存储在地下储罐，燃料在进入汽车之前从该地下储罐泵送到燃料分配器。这些储罐通常由金属或玻璃纤维构成。将这些储罐安装在地下需要相对广阔的挖掘和掩盖，从而会产生许多潜在的问题。与地下燃料储罐相关的一个已知问题是燃料会泄漏或渗入到周围土壤。尤其对于金属储罐而言，其随着时间的推移会腐蚀或降解，特别是在潮湿的土壤中。燃料渗入周围土壤会导致其稳定地损失以及污染环境(土壤和水)。此外，在洪水的情况下，安装在地下的储罐效率低，并且其中的燃料可能会被水和水中的沉积物污染。
此外，燃料储罐埋填在服务站的结构下方的地下，在储罐顶部有一个厚的混凝土处理块，会使得难以对储罐进行维护工作。一旦发现燃料储罐功能失常，修理和更换有故障的地下燃料储罐的成本将可能会非常昂贵。
与传统燃料存储和分配站相关的另一缺点是其无法根据所提供的燃料的容量或类型改变存储站的配置。如今，用于运输的替代能源燃料的使用和需求正在快速增长，并且预期所需的燃料类型和消耗率将会是迄今为止人们所看到的大幅增加。因此，新一代的燃料分配站在其尺寸和燃料类型方面必须是灵活的，使得它们能够根据动态变化的市场来存储和分配。
鉴于上述情况，需要一种燃料存储和分配站，其能够安全地存储各种类型的燃料、具有最小的环境影响，并且可以容易地修改或重新配置以满足变化的燃料需求。
发明内容
考虑到前述问题和需求，本发明的一般目的是提供一种用于存储和/或分配液体和气体燃料的系统。
本发明的另一目的是提供一种用于将燃料存储在高于地面的升高位置的系统。
本发明的另一目的是提供一种用于存储燃料的系统，该系统本质上是模块化的，从而可以容易地适应变化的燃料需求和类型。
通过考虑作为整体的说明书、权利要求和附图，本发明的这些及其它目的及其优选实施例将会变得清楚。
在一实施例中，一种用于存储燃料的系统包括支撑结构，该支撑结构将至少一个燃料储罐支撑在地面上的预定距离处。燃料储罐包括：内储罐，构造成用于容纳气体燃料；中间储罐，包围内储罐并在内储罐和中间储罐两者之间限定第一环形空间；以及外储罐，包围中间储罐，并在外储罐和中间储罐两者之间限定第二环形空间。第一环形空间填充有用于吸收结构应力的减震树脂，而第二环形空间填充有用于防火和防弹的绝缘材料。该中间储罐连接到支撑结构和至少一个相邻的燃料储罐，并且防止负载传递到内储罐。燃料储罐本身用作系统的结构支撑构件，不需要采用独立的承载梁和构件。
附图说明
通过参考附图阅读以下对非限制性实施例的描述，将能够更好地理解本发明，其中：
图1是根据本发明的一实施例的燃料存储和分配系统的横截面正视图，示出了液体燃料的储存；
图2是图1的燃料存储系统的燃料储罐的示意图，显示了用于结构支撑的各种互连点的位置；
图3是根据本发明另一实施例的燃料存储和分配系统的横截面正视图，示出了气体燃料的储存；
图4是根据本发明另一实施例的燃料存储和分配系统的横截面正视图，示出了气体燃料的储存；
图5是图4的燃料存储和分配系统的燃料存储部分的放大剖视图。
具体实施方式
参照图1，其示出了根据本发明的一实施例的以模块化燃料存储站100形式呈现的燃料存储系统。燃料存储系统100包括以锚固或其他方式与地面106接触的多个支撑腿102、104。在一实施例中，支撑腿102可以是布置在系统100的相对侧上的长支撑腿，而支撑腿104可以是布置在长支撑腿102中间的较短腿。如图1中进一步所示，系统100包括多个燃料储罐108，其由支撑腿102、支撑腿104支撑在高于地面106的升高位置。在一实施例中，每个储罐108可以包含在壳体110内，该壳体110配置成使系统100具有令人愉悦的外观并且可以在其上显示广告或其他图形。
图1示出了储罐108，其构造成用于容纳液体燃料，例如汽油等。在一实施例中，每个储罐108可以存储相同类型的燃料，但是可以设想在不脱离本发明的更广泛方面的情况下，每个储罐中可以存储不同类型的燃料。例如，储罐108可以存储各种类型的烃燃料，包括但不限于汽油、柴油、CNG(压缩天然气)、LPG(液化石油气)、氢气和甲醇。
在一实施例中，整个系统100及其部件(包括燃料储罐108和支撑腿102、支撑腿104)，具有至少双壁结构，以用于防火及抗冲击。例如，每个储罐108包括外壁112和内壁114。在一实施例中，每个储罐的外壁112和内壁114之间的空间可以填充防火和防弹材料116，如下文详细讨论的。同样地，支撑腿102、支撑腿104中的每一个也可以是双壁结构，即具有外壁118和内壁120。
重要的是，支撑腿和燃料储罐，通过其双壁结构，具有至少2个半小时的防火等级，并且是防弹的，也符合美国国务院对K12等级的车辆抗冲击要求(即对于行驶速度为50英里/小时的重量为15,000磅的车辆，冲击穿透小于36英寸)。这种结构提供了一个坚固的整体结构，能够承受很高的结构应力。
如图1中进一步所示，外部的长支撑腿102经由结构安装支架122或类似机构直接附接到外储罐108，而储罐108它们本身通过结构构件或安装支架124彼此直接互连。如图2所示，每个储罐108包括多个联接点或连接点126，用于通过安装支架或类似的直接连接件直接地与其他储罐108或与支撑腿102连接。通过利用储罐108本身和支撑腿102之间的多个直接互连点，可以增加结构刚度和负载支撑。另外，在多个点处的这种直接互连方式允许将储罐108自身用作承载结构构件，从而不需要采用大量的支撑梁或其他类似物等。
现参照图3，示出了根据本发明另一实施例的升高的模块化燃料存储系统300。该系统300通常类似于系统100，其中相同的附图标记表示相同的部件。系统300包括多个支撑腿302，其以锚固或其他方式与地面306接触，并且将多个燃料储罐308支撑在高于地面306的升高位置。在一实施例中，每个储罐308可以包含在壳体310内。图3中所示的储罐308专门设计成用于存储LPG(液化石油气)。
在一实施例中，整个系统300及其部件(包括燃料储罐308和支撑腿102)，如同系统100一样地具有双壁结构，以用于防火和抗冲击。而且，与图1的系统100一样，支撑腿302通过结构安装支架322或类似机构直接连接到外储罐308，而且储罐308本身通过结构构件或安装支架324在多个互连点彼此直接地互连。同样，通过利用储罐308本身和支撑腿302之间的多个直接互连点，可以增加结构刚度和负载支撑。此外，在多个点处的这种直接互连方式允许将储罐308自身用作承载结构构件，从而不需要采用大量支撑梁或其他类似物等。
参照图4，示出了根据本发明另一实施例的升高的模块化燃料存储系统400。该系统400通常类似于系统100和系统300。系统400包括多个支撑腿402，其以锚固或其他方式与地面406接触，并且在高于地面406的升高位置支撑多个燃料储罐408。在一实施例中，每个储罐408可以包含在壳体410内。图4中所示的储罐408专门设计成用于存储CNG(压缩天然气)。
如上所述，整个系统400及其部件(包括燃料储罐408和支撑腿402)，如同系统100和系统300一样地具有双壁结构，以用于防火和抗冲击。而且，与图1的系统100类似，支撑腿402通过结构安装支架422或类似机构直接连接到外储罐408，而储罐408本身通过结构构件或安装支架424在多个互连点彼此直接地互连。同样，通过利用储罐408本身和支撑腿402之间的多个直接互连点，可以增加结构刚度和负载支撑。此外，在多个点处的这种直接互连方式允许将储罐408自身用作承载结构构件，从而不需要采用大量支撑梁或其他类似物等。
参照图5，示出了用于存储系统400的升高的储罐装置的详细视图。如图所示，每个储罐108具有三壁结构并且具有内储罐430、中间储罐432和外储罐434。中间储罐432包围内储罐430并与其间隔开，在它们之间限定第一环形空间436。类似地，外储罐434包围中间储罐432并与其间隔开，在它们之间限定第二环形空间438。在一实施例中，内储罐配置成容纳高压气体燃料，例如CNG或氢气。在优选实施例中，在内储罐430和中间储罐434之间的第一环形空间436填充树脂，而中间储罐434和外储罐434之间的第二环形空间438则填充隔热材料。
使用期间，高压气体包含在内储罐430内，而第一环形空间436内的树脂用作内储罐430和中间储罐432之间的减震器或缓解结构应力。如图5所示，支撑腿402与结构支撑/互连构件422互连以及储罐408在支撑腿408和中间储罐432之间延伸，而互连构件424在其中一个罐构件408的中间储罐432和相邻的另一个罐构件408的中间储罐432之间延伸。以这种方式，中间储罐432既可用作直接连接相邻罐并承受载荷的结构构件，又可用作加强构件。重要的是，这种配置方式，特别是用于承受系统400的负载的中间储罐432的使用，能够防止结构应力传递到用于容纳高压气体燃料的内储罐430。
除了上述之外，第二环形空间438内的绝热材料用作绝缘层，以提供耐火性和防弹保护。在一实施例中，环形空间438内的隔热材料可以是地幔岩Pyrolite(具有珍珠岩的整块水泥)或其他绝缘材料。外储罐434本身用作系统400的容纳容器并用于保护元件。储罐430、432、434中的每一个均可以由钢形成，但是也可以使用本领域已知的且不脱离本发明的更广泛方面的其他材料。
重要的是，具有三壁结构的储罐408消除了用于容纳气体燃料的内罐430上的所有结构应力。如图5进一步所示，诸如地幔岩Pyrolite的热绝缘体440也可以用在连接构件424、424中或连接构件424、424的周围，以便为整个系统400提供更佳的防弹及防火保护。
尽管上述系统被示为独立的燃料存储系统，但是本发明并不限于此。特别地，除了存储燃料之外，该系统同样可以配置成用于分配工业、商业和乘用汽车的燃料。
尽管已经关于其具体实施例示出和描述了本发明，但是本领域技术人员应当理解，在不脱离本发明的范围的情况下，可以进行各种变型以及用等同物替换其元件。此外，在不脱离本发明的实质范围的情况下，可以进行修改以使特定情况或材料适应本发明的教导。因此，本发明不限于以上详细描述中公开的特定实施例，而是意图包括落入本公开范围内的所有实施例。
