Definitions

  • the invention relates to an LPG tube unit with a fixed pressure and fixed flow rate, having the property of utilisation in small and medium scale manufacturing plants, industrial facilities, touristic facilities such as hotels, pensions, restaurants, rest areas on highways and similar establishments.
  • Said invention relating to a generator that produces energy from LPG tubes in liquid phase comprises an evaporator from which gas is delivered from a plurality of LPG tubes via distribution pipes and solenoid valves, a regulator towards which gas delivered from evaporator is redirected and a consumption line.
  • LPG systems are the type of energy that are used - and most preferred - in places and regions where utilisation of natural gas is unavailable.
  • Today, LPG tubes are a type of energy currently in use in small and medium scale manufacturing plants, industrial facilities, touristic facilities such as hotels, pensions, restaurants, rest areas on highways and similar establishments.
  • LPG fuel stored mostly in tubular embodiments causes emergence of some negative cases according to terms of use and features due to this structure of it.
  • utilisation of an LPG tube to the fullest is not possible in high flow rated extraction in structures that are currently used.
  • actions that will pose safety risk are staged. For example; dangerous acts are done such as rocking the tube, turning it upside down.
  • the LPG tube protector developed with this invention is characterised in that it comprises, as the main constituents, lateral perimeter, lateral perimeter cavities and lower skirt.
  • the lateral perimeter and the lower skirt can have cavities.
  • the lateral diameter has projections.
  • the LPG tube protector developed with this invention ensures prevention of crushes and damages to side surfaces and also abrasion of paints of LPG tubes of any type and volume due to bumping into one another or falling down the ground during delivery, storage, landing, loading, relocation.
  • a further application, on the other hand, is the application numbered TR2006/05413.
  • Purpose of the invention is that unlike the structures being used in the prior art, it has different technical properties bringing a new expansion in this field.
  • a purpose of the invention is that it is an ideal energy solution for business enterprises which LPG consumption is high. It comprises a system that can get the energy from 1 tube that could be obtained from 10 tubes. Secret of this system is that it produces energy from LPG not in gas but liquid phase.
  • Another purpose of the invention is Fixed Flame Height: required flame height is always fixed and energy is high.
  • Secure Working Environment It provides a secure working environment by means of speacial safety mechanisms comprised of a solenoid valve, a tubular connection apparatus with special- screw, an over current valve and gas detector.
  • a further purpose of the invention is Periodical Maintenance: Tubes are subjected to annual periodical maintenance by competent LPG personnel of ipragaz and users receive refresher training during this periodical maintenance.

The Prior Art
LPG systems are the type of energy that are used - and most preferred - in places and regions where utilisation of natural gas is unavailable. Today, LPG tubes are a type of energy currently in use in small and medium scale manufacturing plants, industrial facilities, touristic facilities such as hotels, pensions, restaurants, rest areas on highways and similar establishments.
LPG fuel stored mostly in tubular embodiments causes emergence of some negative cases according to terms of use and features due to this structure of it. For example, utilisation of an LPG tube to the fullest is not possible in high flow rated extraction in structures that are currently used. For using up of tubes, actions that will pose safety risk are staged. For example; dangerous acts are done such as rocking the tube, turning it upside down.
In existing high flow rated applications, LPG tubes stand alone in an unprotected manner. Energy used to be cut off and right choice could not be made for the number of tubes since there were miscalculations, on the other hand, pressure loss and loss of flow rate are experienced. Also, there was the emerging risk of growing number of tubes in addition. Since flow rate reduced, process efficiency used to be low in the same ratio. During the search for Patent/Utility Models relating to LPG tubes, some applications were found. Among these applications, there was an application numbered TR2005/05067 for which an application was made on the date of 2005/12/16. The Abstract page of that application, on the other hand, stated that 'This invention relates in particular to a protective casing envaginated round exterior body of an LPG tube. The LPG tube protector developed with this invention is characterised in that it comprises, as the main constituents, lateral perimeter, lateral perimeter cavities and lower skirt. The lateral perimeter and the lower skirt can have cavities. The lateral diameter has projections. The LPG tube protector developed with this invention ensures prevention of crushes and damages to side surfaces and also abrasion of paints of LPG tubes of any type and volume due to bumping into one another or falling down the ground during delivery, storage, landing, loading, relocation. A further application, on the other hand, is the application numbered TR2006/05413.
