Definitions

  • the invention relates to a protective casing for gas container equipped with a valve block, with or without built-in expansion valve, and gas container equipped with such a cowling.
  • Gas containers typically gas cylinders, equipped with a valve block, with or without built-in expansion valve, namely a single tap open / closed type or an integrated valve regulator, also called RDI, to control flow and pressure of the delivered gas.
  • RDI integrated valve regulator
  • a protective cover forming a protective shell around said valve block.
  • hat cowling
  • the bottle / cap / tap assembly to be hooked to a support, such as a hospital bed bar, a stretcher, a rod or support for attaching an emergency vehicle, for example a SAMU unit or the like, it is customary to arrange on the cap, a fixed attachment system, such as a notch at the bottom of the cap, or a mobile attachment system, either pivoting or retractable.
  • a support such as a hospital bed bar, a stretcher, a rod or support for attaching an emergency vehicle, for example a SAMU unit or the like
  • a fixed attachment system such as a notch at the bottom of the cap
  • a mobile attachment system either pivoting or retractable.
  • a carrying handle usually carried by one or support amounts, which is integral with the hull of the cap or is fixed thereto by screwing, gluing or any other suitable technique.
  • cowling mobile or fixed attachment system is described by the documents EP-A-629812 , DE-A-10057469 , US-2004/020793 and EP-A-2586481 .
  • cowlings comprising a carrying handle and support posts which form an integral part of the hull come up against manufacturing constraints.
  • cowls made in several parts fixed to each other allow greater flexibility of manufacture.
  • FR-A-2918152 teaches a protective casing for gas container equipped with a valve block equipped with a pivoting system constituting both handle portage and attachment device.
  • the arms constituting the supported uprights come to connect on both sides of the cowling, which necessarily requires several fasteners.
  • FR-A-2610270 describes a bottle of liquefied gas equipped with a similar pivoting system.
  • the document FR-A-2725187 offers a bottle of liquefied gas equipped with a rudimentary cowling with pivoting carry handle.
  • An independent handling device is connected to the handle to increase the height thus facilitating its taking and porting, avoiding the user to bend down.
  • This cowling does not include any attachment device other than the pivoting handle.
  • a problem to be solved is therefore to propose a rollover for a gas bottle comprising a hooking system and a carrying handle carried by one or several support posts which does not have the aforementioned drawbacks, in particular which is easy to assemble thanks to a number of screws or other limited fasteners, and a shorter assembly time.
  • the cowling must also be light and easy to handle, especially when installed on a gas cylinder.
  • the invention also relates to a gas container equipped with a valve block, whether with or without integrated expansion valve, characterized in that it comprises a protective cover according to the invention arranged around at least a part of said faucet block.
  • the invention also relates to a use of a gas container according to the invention for dispensing a gas or gas mixture, in particular the gas or gas mixture is chosen from oxygen, air, N 2 O / O 2 , He / O 2 and NO / nitrogen.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of a rigid protective cover 1, commonly called “hat”, arranged around a block 3 valve, namely a tap with or without built-in regulator, itself attached to the neck of a bottle of gas 2.
  • hat a rigid protective cover 1 commonly called “hat”
  • block 3 valve namely a tap with or without built-in regulator
  • the gas cylinder 2 has a size between 0 and 150 cm, and a capacity of 1 to 20 liters (in water equivalent).
  • the protective cover 1 is mainly used to protect the valve block 3 against shocks, whether with built-in expansion valve or RDI, or without built-in expansion valve.
  • a protective cover 1 may be open or closed, that is to say have more or less large openings giving access to the valve block 3 located in the internal volume of the cowling 1. When closed, the cowling 1 preserves the valve 3 of dirt and other dusts.
  • valve 3 typically an integrated pressure reducer valve type RDI comprises a rotating wheel 3a, manipulated by a user, to control the gas flow, a gas outlet connector 3b for withdrawing the gas stored in the bottle 2, a pressure gauge 3d for controlling the pressure of the gas remaining in the bottle, a filling connector 3e for introducing gas into the bottle 2 when it is empty, and a pressurized gas outlet connection 3f.
  • RDI pressure reducer valve type
  • the protective casing 1 comprises a casing body 4 forming a protective shell around an internal volume sized to receive the valve block or RDI 3, and a long carrying handle 6 designed to be taken in hand by an operator.
  • the carrying handle 6 is formed of a rigid material.
  • Two support uprights 5 mechanically connect the casing body 4 to the carrying handle 6, that is to say that the uprights 5 are secured to the carrying handle 6 so as to allow a user to easily transport the whole hat / tap / bottle.
  • the support posts 5 are fixed, for example by screws, bolts or the like, at both ends of the carrying handle 6.
  • the carrying handle 6 is here elongate curved and of cylindrical or oval section so as to allow its grip and its port by a user.
  • the body 4 of the cowling 1 is typically made of a polymer-type material, preferably made of plastic material, such as PVC, PE, PET, PP, PMMA, PU, PA ...
  • the support posts 5 may be formed of a plastic material, such as the casing body 1, but may also be made of aluminum alloy or any other metallic material.
  • the body 4 of the protective casing 1 further comprises, in its front face 4a, one (or more) opening through which a user can have access to the rotary wheel 3a and the gas outlet fitting 3b of the valve block or RDI 3.
  • the pressure gauge 3d is arranged in another opening located in the front face 4a of the cowling 1 so as to allow the user easy reading of the gas pressure indicated by said pressure gauge 3d.
  • the protective casing 1 comprises, on the side of its rear face 4b, a device 7 pivoting about an axis AA, between a position called “fully folded” and a position called “fully unfolded", that is to say in the position it adopts when attached to a support.
  • the pivot angle between these two extreme positions is less than or equal to 170 ° but greater than or equal to 0 °, typically between 90 and 170 °, for example of the order of 150 °.
  • the support posts 5 and the carrying handle 6 are fixed, that is to say non-movable, relative to the pivoting attachment device 7, so only the attachment device 7 pivots relative to the body of the cowling.
  • attachment device 7 On the Figure 1 , an example of attachment device 7 is shown in the fully folded position, while on the Figure 2 it is represented in fully unfolded position. In this case, the pivot angle between these two positions is of the order of 150 °.
  • the assembly of the protective casing 1 and its fixing around the valve block 3 carried by the gas cylinder 2, is done by screwing by means of fastening elements 8, namely screws or the like.
  • the protective casing 1 comprises several subunits attached to each other, namely mainly the casing body 4, which can itself be formed of one or more components, the support pillars 5 carrying the handle 6 and the attachment device 7.
  • the attachment device 7 is mounted on the body 4 of the protective casing 1 via one 8a of the assembly screw 8, which allows not only a fastening of the attachment device 7 to the body 4 of the cowling 1 and its articulation relative thereto, namely its angular pivoting, but also the fixing of the support-legs 5.
  • a single fastening element such as a single screw 8a, is used to fix the support posts 5 and the pivoting attachment device 7 to the casing body 4 and to pivot the shackle device. 7 relative to the cowling 1 between the fully folded and fully unfolded positions, and vice versa.
  • the single fastening element such as a single screw 8a, therefore constitutes the pivot axis AA of the fastening device 7.
  • the single fastening element 8 can be a screw, bolt, rivet or any other fastening system. equivalent assembly by welding or clipping.
  • the gas container 2 equipped with the valve block 3 protected by the cowling 1 according to the invention is particularly well suited for use in the medical field, including hospital, home or in a mobile emergency response unit, type EMS or ambulance.
