Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for supplying energy to a pneumatic device driven by a gas under pressure and, more particularly, to such a device making it possible to ensure the autonomy of such a device, of the type comprising a transportable cryogenic liquid reservoir and means associated with the reservoir for withdrawing and vaporizing liquid from the reservoir and addressing it to the user device.
- the object of the present invention is to provide an improved device of this type, of a simplified and robust design, of increased reliability and which can be used for numerous diverse applications.
- the withdrawal and vaporization means comprise at least one portion of the circuit incorporating a vaporization means and delimited between a non-return valve upstream and a valve controlled downstream.
- Another object of the present invention is to propose an application of this device to the supply of cryogenic liquid to a freezing installation, in particular for freezing food products.
- a reservoir 1 of cryogenic liquid conventionally comprising a double wall 11, 12, the internal wall 12 containing the cryogenic liquid, for example liquid nitrogen.
- two serpentine conduits 21 and 22 are connected at 3 to the bottom of the wall 12 of the tank to draw cryogenic liquid contained in the tank.
- On each duct 21, 22 are mounted, respectively, check valves 41, 42, evaporators 51, 52 and controlled valves 61, 62.
- the conduits 21 and 22 are thus mounted in parallel between the withdrawal point 3 and the inlet 71 of engine gas from an apparatus 7 such as a pump or any pneumatic tool.
- this device is constituted by a pump 7 immersed in the cryogenic liquid from the reservoir to discharge this liquid into a supply duct 8 of an installation using a such liquid.
- this installation can be that described in European patent application No. 505 222 filed in the name of the applicant, used for freezing food products.
- the conduits 21 and 22 and the associated members are arranged between the two walls 11 and 12 of the tank so as to constitute a transportable whole, possibly using handles 181, 182.
- the conduits 21 and 22 are used to vaporize the liquid withdrawn at 3 from this tank. It is understood that the liquid withdrawn having passed through the non-return valve 41 for example, flows into the evaporator 51. This can be formed, for example, by a capacity loaded with metal chips. The cryogenic liquid then flows in thin films on the surface of these chips, thereby establishing a large evaporation surface for liquid nitrogen.
- the vaporized nitrogen then spreads through the coil from the non-return valve 41 to the valve 61 assumed to be closed.
- the increasing pressure of nitrogen on the valve prevents it from opening and this pressure can then continue to increase in the closed enclosure delimited in the conduit between the valve 41 and the closed valve 61, until '' a suitable pressure is established, of 6 bars for example for the pump 7.
- a suitable pressure of 6 bars for example for the pump 7.
- the vaporization of the nitrogen in the pipe 21 takes a certain time and that, after the opening of the valve 61, the pressure of the nitrogen gas supplied to the pump begins to drop, possibly to a value not suitable for supplying the pump.
- the device according to the invention therefore comprises means for controlling the valves 61, 62.
- These means may include, as shown in the drawing, a pneumatic reverser 9 supplied with pressurized gas by a line 10 pricked on the circuit 21 for example with return to the tank above the free surface of liquid nitrogen, a valve 11 with manual closure being arranged on this line.
- a pneumatic reverser 9 supplied with pressurized gas by a line 10 pricked on the circuit 21 for example with return to the tank above the free surface of liquid nitrogen, a valve 11 with manual closure being arranged on this line.
- this valve is opened.
- the switching frequency of the inverter 9 is adjusted by an electronic unit 12, as a function of the time of vaporization of the nitrogen in each of the two circuits 21, 22.
- This box can also be supplied by signals P1, P2 representative of the pressures prevailing in the circuits 21, 22, respectively, to adjust the frequency of tilting of the inverter so as to best ensure the continuity of the supply of engine gas to the pump 7 at a suitable predetermined pressure.
- the device according to the invention also comprises a line 13 provided with a pressure regulator 14 and connected between the circuit 21 for example, and the tank to maintain above the free surface of nitrogen liquid at a predetermined pressure, for example 0.7 bar, so as to facilitate the flow of liquid nitrogen in the vaporization conduits.
- a pressure regulator 14 connected between the circuit 21 for example, and the tank to maintain above the free surface of nitrogen liquid at a predetermined pressure, for example 0.7 bar, so as to facilitate the flow of liquid nitrogen in the vaporization conduits.
- safety valves 15, 16, 17 are mounted respectively on the circuits 21, 22 and on the tank.
- the invention makes it possible to ensure the complete autonomy of a cryogenic liquid supply source, with a pump submerged in the tank.
- the invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown which has been given only by way of example.
- the device according to the invention could just as easily supply engine gas to an appliance external to the tank.
- more than two serpentine circuits could be provided between the two walls of the tank to further smooth the pressure of the engine gas delivered by the device according to the invention.
