Adopted the utility model discloses a light pipe for optical gas detector can extend the setting along the gas line structure of required protection, sets up the air vent on the light pipe, if there is gas leakage on the gas line, increases and catches the chance, leaks gas more accurately more fast.
Description
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a gaseous technical field that surveys relates to a light pipe for optical gas detector.
Background
Gas leaks often occur and the cost of a gas leak event is very expensive. Point gas detectors are commonly used in the industry to protect potential gas leakage areas. However, if the wind blows in the opposite direction, the point gas detector will not detect it. To cover larger areas, open path gas detectors are often used. Most open path gas detectors operate as a pair of an optical transmitter and an optical receiver. A pair of open path gas detectors needs to be placed in direct position with an obstruction. Cloudy, foggy, or smog would disable the open path gas detector. Other inconveniences of open path gas detectors are: it can only work in a straight line. And it must not have any obstacle between the transmitter and the receiver. To cover a gas line of 1 km (1000 m), 50 point gas detectors (if one point gas detector is placed every 20 m) need to be installed.
Therefore, there is a need for a light pipe for use with a gas detector for a gas line.
SUMMERY OF THE UTILITY MODEL
The primary object of the present invention is to provide a light pipe for an optical gas detector that can be installed along a gas line, in view of the above problems.
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions for a light pipe of an optical gas detector:
the light guide pipe comprises an inner cavity, a metal reflecting layer arranged in the inner cavity and a supporting layer arranged on the outer surface of the metal reflecting layer, the light guide pipe is provided with a plurality of vent holes arranged at intervals, the vent holes penetrate through the supporting layer and the metal reflecting layer and are communicated with the inner cavity, the metal reflecting layer is used for conducting infrared rays emitted from an emitting end in an optical gas detector to a receiving end in the optical gas detector through reflection, leaked gas positioned outside the light guide pipe enters the inner cavity through the vent holes, so that part of the infrared rays in the inner cavity is absorbed by the leaked gas, and the rest of the infrared rays reach the receiving end in the optical gas detector through the metal reflecting layer.
Preferably, the light guide is provided with a breathable waterproof film, the breathable waterproof film is arranged on the outer surface of the supporting layer, and the breathable waterproof film is arranged to cover the vent hole so as to prevent external water vapor from entering and allow gas molecules to enter.
Preferably, the light guide pipe is provided with a protective layer, and the protective layer is arranged on the outer surface of the breathable waterproof film.
Preferably, the metal reflective layer is a gold reflective layer, a silver reflective layer or an aluminum reflective layer.
Adopted the utility model discloses a light pipe for optical gas detector can extend the setting along the gas line structure of required protection, sets up the air vent on the light pipe, if there is gas leakage on the gas line, then the light pipe becomes the closest gas and sniffs the component to increase and catch the chance, leak gas more accurately more quickly.
