Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to a sealing structure, and relates to a bottle mouth sealing structure suitable for a high-pressure gas cylinder, in particular to a bottle mouth sealing structure suitable for a hydrogen storage bottle with a plastic inner container wound with carbon fibers.
Background
Hydrogen is used as a power source of a fuel cell automobile, and the current vehicle-mounted storage mode still adopts the high-pressure gaseous storage with the most mature technology and the most extensive application as the mainstream technology at home and abroad. The pressure grades of vehicle-mounted high-pressure hydrogen storage are 35 MPa and 70 MPa. With the continuous improvement of the manufacturing technology of the 70MPa high-pressure hydrogen storage bottle and the obvious reduction of the cost, the 70MPa vehicle-mounted hydrogen storage technology is generally adopted by fuel cell automobiles (such as passenger cars, coaches, heavy trucks and the like) with higher requirements on driving range.
The 70MPa vehicle-mounted composite hydrogen storage bottle is divided into two types, namely an aluminum liner-wound carbon fiber type (III type bottle) and a plastic liner-wound carbon fiber type (IV type bottle). Wherein, the IV type bottle is superior to the III type bottle in the aspects of weight hydrogen storage density, production efficiency, cost, light weight and the like, and is the future development direction of the vehicle-mounted hydrogen storage bottle.
The bottle mouth of the IV-type bottle needs to be reinforced in compressive strength by means of a metal structural part, and meanwhile, the IV-type bottle is easy to connect with a metal bottle valve.
When the vehicle-mounted hydrogen storage bottle is used for charging and discharging hydrogen, the pressure and the temperature inside the vehicle-mounted hydrogen storage bottle can be changed continuously. For IV-type bottles, the joint of the plastic liner and the metal structural part is easy to generate fatigue in repeated high and low temperature changes and expansion and contraction processes, so that the sealing failure of the plastic and metal connecting interface is caused and hydrogen leakage occurs. In addition, when the metal bottle valve is mounted or dismounted on the bottle mouth of the hydrogen storage bottle, the forward or reverse torque can be transmitted to the metal connecting piece of the bottle mouth, so that the metal connecting piece of the bottle mouth and the bottle neck of the plastic liner can easily rotate relatively to be loosened, and the disconnection of a plastic and metal connecting interface is caused to influence the service life of the hydrogen bottle. Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, it is objective to develop a novel bottleneck structure of a hydrogen storage bottle with a plastic liner and carbon fiber wound around the bottleneck structure, so as to improve the anti-twisting and gas leakage prevention capabilities of the bottleneck connecting piece.

The invention is further described below in connection with a specific installation process of a bottleneck structure of a hydrogen storage bottle with a plastic liner wound with carbon fibers.
Modified rubber O-shaped sealing rings 503 and 505 and PTFE retaining rings 504 and 506 are respectively sleeved in the bottle mouth sealing grooves 101 and 102 of the blow-molded plastic liner 1. Can form twice between aluminum alloy connecting piece and plastics inner bag bottleneck outer wall sealed, hydrogen leads to hydrogen to leak through infiltrating into carbon fiber winding layer in the aluminum alloy connecting piece round bottom in the separation bottle, can cause the debonding or the tympanic bulla of carbon fiber and plastics inner bag when hydrogen leaks seriously, seriously influences the hydrogen bottle life-span.
The disk bottom of the aluminum alloy bottle mouth connecting piece 2 is downward and is sleeved into the bottle mouth of the plastic inner container 1. The internal thread 201 of the bottle mouth connecting piece is screwed into the external thread 103 of the bottleneck of the plastic liner until the salient point 203 on the bottom of the disk is tightly embedded with the thread groove 104 of the shoulder part of the plastic liner and is not screwed.
The tensile force of the carbon fibers when the carbon fibers of the hydrogen bottle are wound is utilized to tightly fix the aluminum alloy bottle mouth connecting piece and the plastic inner container, so that the compressive strength of the plastic inner container is increased, the conjunction force between the round salient points 203 on the disc bottom of the aluminum alloy connecting piece and the wire grooves 104 on the shoulder part of the plastic inner container is further improved, the disconnection among the plastic inner container, the aluminum alloy connecting piece and the carbon fiber winding layer caused by the rotation of the aluminum alloy connecting piece is avoided, and the fatigue life of the hydrogen bottle is further influenced.
A modified rubber O-shaped sealing ring 501 and a tetrafluoro material retaining ring 502 are sleeved in the sealing groove 302 of the bottle mouth positioning pipe 3, so that hydrogen in the hydrogen bottle can be prevented from leaking through the contact surface of the positioning pipe and the inner wall of the plastic liner. 4 rectangular openings 604 on the circular bottom of the mounting tool of the bottle mouth positioning tube are respectively aligned with 4 baffles 304 on the L-shaped folded edge of the positioning tube, and the positioning tube is inserted and then rotates clockwise, so that the circular bottom of the mounting tool can be embedded into the gap between the baffle of the positioning tube and the bottom edge of the folded edge, and the bottle mouth positioning tube 3 can be clamped. The bottle mouth positioning pipe 3 is sent into the aluminum alloy bottle mouth connecting piece by means of the mounting tool, and the T-shaped handle of the mounting tool is rotated, so that the vertical baffle on the circular bottom of the mounting tool drives the vertical baffle on the folded edge of the bottle mouth positioning pipe, the outer thread 301 of the bottle mouth positioning pipe is screwed into the inner thread 105 of the bottle mouth of the plastic liner until the bottom edge of the L-shaped folded edge 303 of the positioning pipe is blocked by the limiting retaining ring 204 of the aluminum alloy connecting piece and cannot be screwed. Therefore, the L-shaped folding edge 303 blocks the limiting check ring, so that the phenomenon that the aluminum alloy connecting piece at the bottle opening does not rotate anticlockwise under the action of external force (for example, anticlockwise torque force when the bottle valve is disassembled is transmitted to the connecting piece) can be avoided. And rotating the T-shaped handle of the mounting tool anticlockwise until the positions of the 4 rectangular openings on the circular bottom of the mounting tool are just overlapped with the baffle on the L-shaped folding edge 304 of the positioning tube, and taking out the mounting tool upwards.
After the hydrogen bottle is manufactured, when an external bottle valve needs to be installed, external threads at the head of the bottle valve are screwed into the internal threads 202 of the aluminum alloy connecting piece of the bottle opening, an O-shaped sealing ring on a cylinder at the lower end of the bottle valve is inserted into the bottle opening positioning pipe 3 and forms sealing with the inner wall of the bottle opening positioning pipe 3, namely, the installation of the bottle valve is completed, and meanwhile, three groups of sealing rings at the bottle opening of the hydrogen bottle form complete sealing of the bottle opening of the hydrogen bottle.
